Unions Can, and Should http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/blogs/taibblog/who-can-stop-the-koch-brothers-from-buying-the-tribune-papers-unions-can-and-should-20130510 A few weeks ago, we did a story about hedge fund king Dan Loeb's plans to address a conference of institutional investors and perhaps solicit new clients among the public retirement funds in attendance, despite his involvement with a political lobbying group that campaigns against those very types of defined benefit plans. When stories by Rolling Stone, Washington Monthly and the New York Post came out about Loeb's affiliations, Loeb canceled his scheduled speech at the Conference of Institutional Investors and fled the event, reinforcing the simple idea that powerful interests can…http://www.twitpic.com/cqkvu4

The crack in Rana Plaza that caused the collapse of the building has only shown us that if we don’t face up to the cracks in our state systems, we as a nation will get lost in the debris of the collapse. Today, the souls of those who lost their lives in Rana Plaza are watching our actions and listening to what we say. The last breath of those souls surrounds us. Did we learn anything at all from this terrible massacre? Or will we have completed our duty by merely expressing our deep sympathy? What should we do? * Do everything to prevent such…http://www.twitpic.com/cqeqjy

As billions of people vie for lives in dignity on a shared planet, the debate on global regulatory and structural policies is swelling. The recent financial crisis has brought transparency and stakeholder accountability into sharper public focus. The economic pro…http://www.twitpic.com/cqercr

Correction officials say they'll rely more on counseling and therapy instead of solitary confinement. They say solitary confinement often makes mentally ill prisoners act worse. This is welcome news for advocacy groups fighting for inmate rights. Authorities say they want to ensure everyone's needs are met. “It will be in a secure setting,” said New York City Correction Commissioner Dora Schriro. “But the purpose is to give them the services and support that they need so as to be more successful while they're in…http://www.twitpic.com/cqf1nl

No one except the Icelanders, who have carried out a peaceful revolution that has managed not only to overthrow a government and draft a new constitution, but also seeks to jail those responsible for the country’s economic debacle. Last week 9 people were arrested in London and Reykjavik for their possible responsibility for Iceland’s financial collapse in 2008… RELATED: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2012-12-08/guest-post-icelandic-success-storyhttp://www.twitpic.com/cqf3f5
