Huffington Post: Is China Really Engineering Baby Geniuses? The Myth Of The Superbaby Debunked Posted: 25 Mar 2013 10:05 AM PDT Written by Will Oremus for Slate Sexual reproduction is a genetic crapshoot. Out of hundreds of eggs and millions of sperm, one joins one to produce a baby whose natural endowments could reflect the best traits of both parents -- or the absolute worst.

Huffington Post: Bankers Still Get Paid Far More Than Most Workers, But Pay Gap Is Narrowing: Report Posted: 25 Mar 2013 10:10 AM PDT Being a banker just isn't quite as good as it used to be. The gap between what bank employees make and what other private-sector workers earn is getting smaller, according to new research by the consulting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) for the Financial Times. According to the research, bankers were paid 5.8 times more than the private-sector average last year, down from 9.5 times the private-sector average in 2006. PwC analyzed pay at nine U.S. and European investment banks. Meanwhile, banks are eliminating thousands of jobs in the face of the weak economy.
