The Brief, June 19: Good Dads, School Salvation

Father's Day is Sunday — have you sent your card? Polished your golf club or bought your tie or started fasting for that mega-brunch? Mr. President himself is urging dads to be their best selves so kinds get all that good role-modelin' they can. Read what he has to say ... but don't stop there! The Brief keeps it coming with stories of rescue and relief and some never-enough compensation that is at least a good start. Dive in and enjoy! Served fresh daily, don't you forget it.
  • Go, daddy-o! Obama sings the praises of good dads ... and encourages better fathering to come.
  • Hardly compensation, but a step toward coming to terms.
  • New school Prius sellin' like hotcakes!
  • SuperBlackBerry to the rescue! Phone actually, miraculously, rescues abducted woman.
  • Wow. Generous benefactors answer letter-writer's cry for a teachable school.
