One million dollars a year to teach 1200 pre schoolers to read? What are they going to use, gold plated readers? Get real. I learned to read at three by reading the Sunday comic pages on my Grandpa's knee. Stop trying to solve the problem of incompentent teachers by throwing more money at it.

Daily Horoscope for December 30

Libra

If you're invited to a party or gathering today and you don't know whether to go, you should. You'll have a terrific time and you might meet someone who always makes your knees go weak. Even if it's a perfectly harmless flirtation and you're both happily committed to other people, it will still do your ego good to have a tantalizing conversation with this person.
