The school choice movement has a long way to go according to the newly released "Cato Education Market Index." The report rates all fifty states and two foreign countries on the extent to which they enjoy market freedoms and incentives in education. It finds that no state in the nation has anything approaching a free educational marketplace — including states with charter school, voucher, or education tax credit programs. Cato scholar Andrew J. Coulson, the report's author, argues that in order to enjoy the substantial benefits of a true free market in education — innovation, diversity, efficiency, the rapid dissemination of best practices, reduced social conflict over the curriculum — several key policy changes are necessary.

I read about a natural fat replacement ingredient called Z Trim on page 90 of the book “You on a Diet” by Oprah’s doctor, Mehmet Oz. I ordered off of the Z Trim web site and have been cooking with it for a few weeks now. It works and its easy. It lowers calories by replacing portions of the oils, butter, and other fats. It also adds fiber to foods, because it basically is corn fiber made into a gel that works like fat in most cooking. They say it is undetectable, and that’s true. My cooking tastes like it always did. I’ve lost some weight, slowly. It’s a sensible approach and its natural. I eat what I want; it tastes as good as it always did, and I’m finally “right-sizing” my body. A total win-win.
