		<description><![CDATA[Last month, news broke that international consulting giant McKinsey &#038; Co. is recruiting moms back from stay-at-home status.
In a Wall Street Journal Web video, reporter Leslie Kwoh said, &#8220;From what we understand, this is really an effort for them to get back some of the talent that they lost &#8230; as women left to become [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The news that the Dow Jones industrial average is at record highs is perplexing, given that the companies doing so well are apparently not creating jobs &#8211; or, at any rate, not creating jobs here. The U.S. unemployment rate remains stubbornly stuck just below 8 percent, and is 7.1 percent on Long Island.
Normally, you&#8217;d think [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know how often Republican members of the House of Representatives use quotes from President Barack Obama in their slideshows. Given the caustic partisan scene in Washington, it&#8217;s probably rare.
But on Tuesday morning, Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-N.C.), who chairs the Higher Education and Workforce Training Subcommittee, included a promise from the president&#8217;s 2012 State [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On a recent morning, my eighth-grader grabbed her cellphone as she was leaving for school. In my house, this calls for an explanation. She told me in a rush: &#8220;We can use them in art class. We listen to music, and we look up images.&#8221;
With that, she was gone.
This is a big change from two [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Hamptons and the homeless &#8211; two things that don&#8217;t seem to go together.
And, indeed, the presence of a homeless shelter in Hampton Bays, in the former Hidden Cove Motel, has been under attack almost from the time it opened in October 2011.
But this 28-unit shelter has by many accounts been a good neighbor. It [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Remember the expert advice that parental involvement is the key to kids&#8217; school success? Apparently, involvement can go too far.
A new survey of 128 guidance counselors, school psychologists and teachers asserts that many parents are overly engaged in their kids&#8217; schooling and, generally, in their lives &#8211; and it&#8217;s hurting the children&#8217;s maturity and courage. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Taking on the president&#8217;s jobs performance is becoming a regular gig for Jack Welch. He sent a Twitter message after Barack Obama&#8217;s inaugural address on Monday, saying the president is apparently &#8220;comfortable with high unemployment,&#8221; because he failed to talk enough about jobs in his speech.
You may remember that Welch, the former General Electric chairman, [...]]]></description>

The New York State Legislature bolstered what was already one of the strongest assisted outpatient treatment laws in the country, Kendra&#8217;s Law. Outpatient treatment is part of the safety net that the United States failed to adequately construct [...]]]></description>

Or so the story went. Many on [...]]]></description>

In a year-end interview, responding to a question about the political fights ahead, President Barack Obama voiced [...]]]></description>
