You can pass some of  the time until the White House NCLB event checking out coverage of Arne Duncan's speech at Harvard on Monday and the reactions it has generated since then.  Titled "Fighting the Wrong Education Battles," the speech featured Arne's dogged efforts to point out that there's lots of room to compromise and lots to lose if education supporters fight each other rather than fighting for more and better services and results for kids.  Text here.  Video not yet posted will be here.
