The summer fun continues at Spot-on this week.

First up, our house Republican, Scott Olin Schmidt takes a look at the mortgage and credit crisis and Congress in Do-Nothing Congress.Then he looks at how Los Angeles might be different - yet the same - without the L.A. Times in Mourning My Local Paper

Matthew Holt takes a look at the crisis within the health care crisis. You knew it was complicated but Matthew makes it all pretty clear. And yes, it's all about the money as he explains in The Primary Care Conundrum

Jeanne Jackson wonders - and worries - about people who aren't quite dressed when they leave their homes in Clothing Required. Earlier Jeanne and her sons, Heir 1 and Heir 2, came to an obvious solution for a box of family 'collectibles' in Collecting Dust

Nicole Martinelli wants to know how long European governments can continue to ignore the religious needs of their Muslim residents in Milan's Mobile Mosque. Looking at another minority, black women in the fashion business, Nicole asks if Italian Vogue's "black" issue has an impact she wonders in Black Models Are New Black, Says Italian Vogue.

Christopher Brauchli got his 15 seconds (on the Internet, everything moves faster) of fame with Spot-on's pals at Gawker Media noticed his work. Two pieces emblematic of the satire Chris seres up every week are, of course, on hand in Judging Liars and KBR Revisited

Many of the writers who appear in our virtual feature well veer into the political from time-to-time. This week, it's Gopika Kaul's turn with Race to A Nuclear Deal looking at the contentious politics of the U.S. agreement with India.

Our food writer Kevin Weeks is often political, too. But this week, he's looking at two of his favorite topics: cooking for your family (you should do it) in It Ain't Hard and gadgets (can't get enough of 'em) in Necessary and Essential.
