  5. An Rx for the doctor shortage

    New subsidies and insurance regulations in the 2010 healthcare law are expected to bring coverage to millions of uninsured Californians starting next year. The newly insured are likely to put a bigger strain on the healthcare system, particularly in their demand for primary-care doctors, of whom there are already too few in many parts of the country. That's why trained medical professionals who aren't physicians, such as nurse practitioners, want more freedom to deliver the care they're capable of giving than state rules allow. Lawmakers should give it to them.

  6. Boston bombings: Don't blame boxing

    As details have begun to flow about the lives of the Tsarnaev brothers, the media and the public have seized on some obvious bullet points: that the perpetrators were Muslims; that they were of Chechen descent; that they seemed alienated (one of the brothers allegedly said he "didn't understand America.") There's one detail about the life of Tamerlan Tsarnaev, though, that I hope doesn't get blamed for his later actions.

  7. For whom the tolls toll

    Angelenos like their freeways to be free (although they differ on what it means for highway access to be free). That's the sentiment expressed by the half a dozen reader responses to USC public policy professor Peter Gordon's <a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/letters/la-le-0413-saturday-110-toll-lane-20130413%2C0%2C7626044.story">letter</a> last Saturday urging motorists to be patient with Los Angeles' experiment in congestion pricing on the 10 and 110 freeways. Gordon's lengthy letter discussed a Times <a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-toll-lane-analysis-20130410%2C0%2C5727021.story">article</a> reporting that while traffic on the 110 toll lanes has sped up since their conversion from solely carpool lanes, it has slowed on the rest of the lanes.

  10. Of course you're stressed. Just look at you.

    We all know the face of stress: the clenched jaw, the furrowed brow, the intense stare. And, really, it's not a bad look. We all do some of our best work under pressure. Adrenaline and other stress hormones give us the kick start we need to meet deadlines and generally get ahead in life.
