The purpose of college education
To the Editor, NYT
The larger benefit of college is the development of critical thinking, which helps individuals identify and develop new work and business opportunities, manage personal finances, lead healthy lives, raise fulfilled children, participate in politics as informed citizens and obey the law.
This is why Americans need a college education.

Too much thinking, too little execution?
Sent by a citizen to the government's Cut Waste Panel
Suggestion
While it is silly to bring a chain saw into a forest and keep cutting down trees without knowing exactly which trees to cut; it is also to me an overkill when you have so many Ministers in the PMO doing coordinating work but not having enough officers at the lower levels to execute policies and understand the needs of the people. Example one --- you have coordination minister in the PMO on security but not enough police officers around to deter crimes. Case in point, slashing at downtown east leading to one death. Example two -- you have education coordinating minister but not enough teachers to reduce class size. Example three -- you have the brains setting traffic rules (like zig zags, double zig zags) but not enough traffic police and wardens catching the offenders.

Marital Breakdown and the Family Home | BusinessAndLegal.ie
When a marriage breaks down in Ireland and divorce or judicial separation proceedings are instituted the family home will loom large in considerations as for many couples it is the principal or only asset that they have.
(This is part of the family law series of articles)
The recent fall in property values has caused chaos in this regard though as many people see that there is nothing to divide up after paying off the bank.
Property adjustment orders
Courts can make property adjustment orders in separation or divorce proceedings; in fact they can also make preliminary orders in respect of the family home which are orders which predate the hearing of the legal proceedings.
Courts have the power to make the following orders:
I. The property to be transferred from one spouse to another or to another person
II. The reduction or extinguishment of any interest that a spouse has in the property
III. The settlement of the property to either spouse
Financial Provision in Marital Breakdown | BusinessAndLegal.ie
Even where you may have terminated your marriage by separation agreement, judicial separation or divorce you are still obliged by law to maintain the other spouse. This obligation only ends when the other spouse dies or remarries.
