New York Times 2/10

The Times today was filled with various articles, some very pressing, but others, not so much. Canada's quest for an Olympic medal, although an interesting story, seemed out of place on the front page. There was an excellent lead in the article about long term care hospitals- "No one at the hospital noticed that Tina Bell-Jackman was dying" I was especially interested in the Michelle Obama article regarding childhood obesity and school reforms to bring it down. I think that this is rather important. Although parents should be teaching their children how to make healthy food choices, obviously, there has been some slack somewhere, and Michelle Obama is tackling a very big issue by pushing the schools to pick up the slack.
