    A new book that sells the concept of Communism “in the simple terms of a children’s story” has failed to sell on Amazon.com — except in the category for true believers. “Communism for Kids” by MIT Press “unfolds like a story, with jealous princesses, fancy swords, displaced peasants, mean bosses, and tired workers,” its Amazon.com page explains. […] Scathing customer reviews give the book a rating of only 1.7 out of 5 stars, with comments noting communism has killed “over 60 million people” and asking, “If Communism is so great why are they selling the book. Isn’t that capitalism?” …

    U.S. News and World Report just published its annual ranking of the top 100 public high schools in America. Arizona punches above its weight on this list. Arizona has less than two percent of the nation’s K-12 students but has three schools on the list: University High School in Tucson, Basis Tucson and Northland Preparatory Academy in Flagstaff. University High is a magnet school and Basis and Northland both are charter schools. Congratulations to all three. Rankings are always subject to criticisms, and these are no exception. For example, many states allow magnet schools to be academically selective, employing admissions...

Of course, a lot of that naysaying happened in the 1980s, when Elvira was popular. Who coulda blamed 'em for wanting that song to go away? But country music, of course, hasn't gone anywhere. If anything, its popularity has blossomed even more than at the height of the so-called "Urban Cowboy" movement in the '80s. Country music today has as big a role in popular music as hip-hop, rock, indie-rock...

    NORTH HAVEN — Mark Powell and Mary Lou Stamp are fond of North Haven for its community spirit, while for Leslie Corey, it's the lay of And all of them agree with Money magazine's assessment that North Haven is among the "100 Best Places to Live in the United States." The rating, announced Tuesday by the magazine, comes as a welcome bit of positive news to a town whose reputation was sullied earlier this year with the arrests of three top officials, two of whom are accused of embezzling town funds and a third of helping to cover up the...
