President Obama says that today's commitment by six health-sector groups to help contain health costs shows he is on track to achieve his (highly elusive) goal of saving "the average American family $2,500."

Gulliver's travels took him to the Academy of Lagado, where "professors contrive new rules and methods" for everything: "One man shall do the work of ten; a palace may be built in a week, of materials so durable as to last forever without repairing. All the fruits of the earth shall come to maturity at whatever season we think fit to choose, and increase a hundredfold more than they do at present."
