This NYT article describes a ten year plan to fund neuroscience research that is analogous (in terms of scope) to the human genome project. This article could be used in conjunction with technology discussions (like Kurzweil), aging (lots of implications for alzheimers, etc.), and/or role of governance (establishing long-term goals, funding, etc.)

This article from the Economist talks about China moving away--haltingly-- from the policy of tightly controlling the Yuan. I have used the Atlantic article, "The $1.4 Trillion Question" for years to discuss economic intergration and this is a nice update to that piece.
