EDUCATION
1. Shame on Michelle Rhee
A new report shows student testing irregularities in D.C. under the
leadership of star education reform advocate Michelle Rhee. Education
expert Diane Ravitch blasts Rhee's misguided approach. Says Ravitch: If
our policymakers don't stop to reflect on the damage they are doing to
public education and to any concept of a good education, then our nation
is in deep trouble.

2. Gaddafi Halts Rebels' Advance
Muammar Gaddafi still has plenty of bite left: His forces halted rebels'
advance toward his hometown of Sirte Tuesday and, in fact, have pushed
them back to the town of Ras Lanuf. Gaddafi's troops turned them around
about 150 kilometers (93 miles) east of Sirte in the town of Bin Jawad
with heavy shelling. According to Al-Jazeera, Gaddafi's forces are now
shelling Ras Lanuf and pushing toward the town. Western airstrikes have
been absent so far from the recent action.
