  1. 10 things you might not know about the Founding Fathers (and Mothers)

    The people who founded this nation aren't moldy mannequins in history's closet — they're inspirational figures for modern America as we celebrate the Fourth of July holiday. Former Gov. Rod Blagojevich recently said he had a "man crush" on Alexander Hamilton, and Sarah Palin got into a debate about Paul Revere. So here's to life, liberty and the pursuit of historical trivia:

  7. Tacking right

    President Barack Obama had been readying himself for Tuesday night's State of the Union address since the Nov. 2 election, the electorate's repudiation of big government and big spending. Obama had to respond to what he admitted was a "shellacking." So he agreed to extend President George W. Bush's tax cuts, recruited centrist Democrat William Daley of Chicago as his chief of staff and, on Friday, named General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt as his top economic adviser outside the government.

  13. $53 billion Obama plan could put high-speed rail on track in state

    Illinois' long-shot bid to introduce faster passenger trains by 2014 received a potential boost Tuesday from a White House proposal to spend $53 billion over six years to create a national high-speed rail network that would eventually be within reach of 80 percent of the U.S. population.

    I'm not a big fan of the Connecticut Siting Council. They rammed super-hot high power lines deep into a quiet Middletown neighborhood right next to homes after a series of sham hearings. It was obvious they planned to do that even before the hearings started. They buried the power lines in parts of tony Fairfield County, of course, but Middlesex County was fair game for the unsightly towers.
