News: 6'9" eighth-grade basketball player has college scouts drooling -- http://www.usatoday.com/sports/preps/basketba/2002-07-08-nike-camp.htm

Comment: Eighth grade! Amazing. There's so much money involved in college and pro basketball that young players are being identified and trained earlier and earlier. Of course, some tennis players have turned pro when they were 15 or 16.

Interesting that they quote Tom Izzo in the article.

News: Soaring cost of health insurance -- http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A41642-2002Jul8.html

Comment: It looks inevitable that employees are going to be asked to pick up more of the cost of health insurance. That's acceptable...if we also get more choice in how our health care dollars are spent. More choice should lead to more competition and lower prices.
