Hu Visit A Reminder Of One Way China Leaves U.S. In The Dust
Hu Visit A Reminder Of One Way China Leaves U.S. In The Dust: "As Chinese President Hu Jintao visits the United States, much of the domestic commentary is focused on how his country should be more like the United States -- how it should properly value its currency, improve its human-rights record, open its borders to free trade, consume more and save less.
But as the leaders of the two biggest economies meet, it's hard to overlook the fact that one is lagging and the other is booming. That raises the question: Are there ways that the United States should be more like China?
And the answer is: Maybe one.
China, after all, has one heck of an industrial policy. Its government is actively involved in growing its manufacturing base, using vast government subsidies, tariffs and incentives to make sure more and more of its citizens have jobs making things"

P IMPACT: Meth flourishes despite tracking laws - Yahoo! News
AP IMPACT: Meth flourishes despite tracking laws - Yahoo! News: "ST. LOUIS – Electronic systems that track sales of the cold medicine used to make methamphetamine have failed to curb the drug trade and instead created a vast, highly lucrative market for profiteers to buy over-the-counter pills and sell them to meth producers at a huge markup.
An Associated Press review of federal data shows that the lure of such easy money has drawn thousands of new people into the methamphetamine underworld over the last few years.
'It's almost like a sub-criminal culture,' said Gary Boggs, an agent at the Drug Enforcement Administration. 'You'll see them with a GPS unit set up in a van with a list of every single pharmacy or retail outlet. They'll spend the entire week going store to store and buy to the limit.'"

Texan declared innocent after 30 years in prison - Yahoo! News: "DALLAS – A Texas man declared innocent Tuesday after 30 years in prison had at least two chances to make parole and be set free — if only he would admit he was a sex offender. But Cornelius Dupree Jr. refused to do so, doggedly maintaining his innocence in a 1979 rape and robbery, in the process serving more time for a crime he didn't commit than any other Texas inmate exonerated by DNA evidence."
