The pension reform goes before the upper house of parliament the Senate,on Tuesday with President Sarkozy insisting that its central provision,raising the minimum retirement age by two years to 62,is non-negotiable.According to the government the only way that the French pension system can remain economically practical,given longer m expectancy,is that people work for more years.However opponents,including the Socialist Party,say the change are unjust and tht the pension system can be preserved if higher taxes are imposed on financial institutions and on the better-off.

Some American schools pay teachers more if their students improve on tests.Now,there is a growing movement to pay the students,in some cases,even just for coming to class.Schools that pay students can be found in more than one-fourth of the fifty states.Other schools pay students with food or other rewards.Last year,the city schools in Coshocton,Ohio,launched a programme.They wanted to see if paying elementary school students as much as one hundred dollars would help in passing state exams.Now,Eric Bettinger of Case Western Reserve University has reported mixed results.Math scores increased,but only while students were able to get paid.And there was no evidence of higher scores in reading,social studies and science.Officials will decide later this year whether to continue the programme.
