| Higher Education? | This book details the absurdly rising college costs that are impoverishing the middle class, and putting students and their parents into crushing debt servitude. It shows how the quality is not rising (indeed, in some cases getting worse), and how colleges charge a similar rate for vastly different educational experiences. It lists some of the waste and abuses of the modern colleges, and also shows some who do things well. Solutions to many of the ills are presented. Anyone with kids going to college should read this book and pass it on to others. The entrenched powers who are enriching themselves at our expense are blasting this book-- showing you it's right on the money. |
| Education is Global | Here's a discussion forum for serious issues about education, both here and abroad.

Want to see independent reporting from people not beholden to large
corporations and the powers that be? Thse folks have been giving us
the truth behind the headlines for more than three years. They also
do funny takes on current events that rival Jon Stewart and Stephen
Colbert. Full disclosure: I've appeared in several segments. |
Throg- (the movie)
|
This independent film is a tour de farce, where an immortal idiot goes through history, causing havoc, while avoiding a giant, evil pursuer. It’s bizarre and sickly funny, and like nothing you’ve ever seen (kind of like Ed Wood meets Quentin Tarantino). I play Throg Senior. This film won Best Cinematography at the Boston International Film Festival in 2005. |
