Tonight I was planning on posting the next installment in Alissa’s series on renewable energy projects in Nicaragua.  However, I’m preempting that post to share the news that a Real Time Economics blog post from The Wall Street Journal links to Alissa’s recent, co-authored article in the Monthly Labor Review.  (The article, which is for a specialized audience, describes updates to the U.S. government’s standard occupational classification system; the WSJ blog post linking to it discusses changes in the U.S. Department of Labor’s reporting that reflect new trends, changing technologies, and the impact of the recession.)
