Sorry to be off-topic, but this is too funny to pass up.

"THURSDAY, Feb. 12 (HealthDay News) -- New research suggests the income and education levels of parents are connected to a baby's skills with gesturing, which in turn can indicate whether a child will develop strong language abilities."

Hmmm, what else is linked to larger vocabularies and higher income and education?

"Spencer Kelly, a gesture researcher and an associate professor of psychology at Colgate University in New York, said children from more privileged households might live in homes with more objects, such as toys and furniture. As a result, they may "provide more opportunities for parent and child to use gestures when talking about things.""

More objects in the home! Of course! Why didn't I think of that?

"The next step, she said, is to see if helping kids gesture more will help them develop better vocabulary"

I predict great success.

A brilliant Seligman article.

Anonymous, LOL. Wonder how "repressed" European children - told to control themselves and that pointing is disrespectful - ever learned to speak the complex language of English so effectively.

The "new research" seems like more Freudianistic BS: acting out and dropping standards of behavior - aka "Liberation" - is The Answer! So maybe all kids should be dropping gang signs to hip-hop, and wiggling their asses all over the classroom? Theodore Dalrymple, call your office. (See KMac on Freud and his legacy.)

Off topic: NH Republican Gregg has withdrawn from Commerce Sec nomination tonight. Chalk up another failure to political correctness. I believe Gregg wanted to be in Obama's cabinet out of a moronic sense of racial 'reconciliation'.

Whatever. For the good of the country Obama's people need to do a much better job vetting nominees. I did not vote Obama but I want him to get it the hell together--for the good of the country. Stop the hijinks. Stop the circus. Appointing people from the other party is dicey and this one blew up in his face for whatever reason.

People need to remember that the USA has rivals and enemies all over the world and they are sizing up the Obama administration daily. Russia and China are no doubt sensing major weakness. Thank God both of their economies are going into the crapper or we would be totally screwed.

This global situation is very much like the early 1930's where various weak leaders around the world made huge mistakes and then were replaced by pathological strongmen.

As one analyst pointed out, there is a really easy way to measure lending discrimination. If a group is being discriminated against, it will have a lower default rate.
