This is not a great time to be a recent college graduate.
Average student-loan debt is $29,400. The underemployment rate is 44 percent for graduates ages 22 to 27, meaning they are holding jobs that don’t require bachelor’s degrees. And the average age of financial independence for college graduate these days is 30.
Such statistics have given rise to the narrative that a college degree is no longer worth it, although volumes of economic studies on lifetime earnings prove otherwise. Even so, given the number of college graduates struggling to launch their careers, a wide gap has emerged between what the workforce needs in employees and what colleges are producing in graduates.
Part of the problem is that we have high expectations for the bachelor’s degree today. Thirty years ago, when fewer people required a higher education to get ahead in life, the bachelor’s degree was seen as a vehicle for broad learning. The training part came later by going to graduate school or getting a job where the new employer trained you.
Now we demand that skills training move in tandem with broad learning, and expect both to be completed in the four years of an undergraduate education. For too many students, however, the bachelor’s degree is not providing that dual experience - high-impact, in-classroom learning and out-of-the- classroom, experiential, and hands-on learning necessary for success in today’s economy.
Because of student loan debt, graduate or professional school is no longer an option for many recent college graduates. They’re searching for quick and cheap add- on boot camps that give them what they’re missing. And a whole new set of providers are emerging outside of the traditional higher-education ecosystem to provide that lift.
Last year, General Assembly, which offers courses of a few hours to a few weeks in everything from digital marketing to web development, expanded to Washington, DC, where it is selling out of nearly all of its offerings. Its average student is in his mid-20s and just a few years out of college.
I. colleges are not producing in graduates what the workforce needs in employees.

III. nearly 44% of graduates ages 22 to 27 hold jobs that require bachelor’s degree.
IV. colleges are expected to give students not only skills training, but also broad learning.
V. economic studies on lifetime earnings prove a college degree is no longer worth it.

“When I (meet) 1 Serge, it (be) 2 love at first sight for me – I absolutely adored him, he was this wonderful mad, extrovert Russian Jew who (spend) 3 half of World War II up a tree, according to him. I (think) 4 he actually spent a couple of nights up a tree, although he’d worn the yellow star for years in occupied France. For a project, I met Hitler’s architect Albert Speer at his Heidelberg eyrie in 1971, and he asked if Jane and Serge would sign a copy of Je t’aime] for him. Serge did so, probably relishing the irony, and when he made his Rock Around The Bunker album a few years later [featuring lyrics about Nazi Germany], he gave me a copy (send) 5 to Speer. His parents had arrived in Paris after (flee) 6 the 1917 Russian Revolution, and his father – who was a brilliant pianist – had to perform in casinos.”

The Boomerang Nebula, a strange and extremely frigid object 5,000 light years away, gradually gives up its secrets
Space is cold. Very cold. 1 fact, empty space, far 2 any star or other hot object, is about -270 degrees C.
While downright frigid – a temperature low enough to freeze hydrogen 3 Earth – that's still about 2.7 degrees 4 absolute zero, the lowest possible temperature. The source 5 those couple 6 degrees is primordial: the leftover glow 7 the big bang that gave birth 8 our universe.
The entire cosmos is bathed 9 this radiation, called the cosmic microwave background. As a result, it's hard to avoid this bit of heat, meaning that 10 most of the cosmos, -270 degrees is as cold as it gets.

I would1 look to generate in my friends, and across my generation, a commitment to serving. Whether in schools, hospitals, or on wilderness trails, I’d hope 2 to create in each of us a new, expanded sense of citizenship. We’d spend 3 a year of our lives, before jobs, children, and mortgages complicate our options, building an America where serving is not the obligation of a few – or a possibility only to the privileged.
It would be 4 a real choice for everyone. If I were 22 I’d want to give 5 myself an answer to the question: “Where did you serve?”

Cats are at a crucial point in their evolutionary journey as they transform from solitary hunters to domestic pets, a study by the BBC and the Royal Veterinary College has revealed.
Cats see the world in muted colours, making it easier for them to see movement without distractions. They also have large eyes for their size, allowing them to see well in low-level light.
However, they can’t focus on anything less than a foot away, so use their whiskers for detecting objects closer to their bodies.

João e Maria
Agora eu era o herói
E o meu cavalo só falava inglês
A noiva do cowboy
Era você além das outras três
Eu enfrentava os batalhões
Os alemães e seus canhões
Guardava o meu bodoque
E ensaiava o rock para as matinês
Agora eu era o rei
Era o bedel e era também juiz
E pela minha lei
A gente era obrigado a ser feliz
E você era a princesa que eu fiz coroar
E era tão linda de se admirar
Que andava nua pelo meu país
Não, não fuja não
Finja que agora eu era o seu brinquedo
Eu era o seu pião
O seu bicho preferido
Vem, me dê a mão
A gente agora já não tinha medo
No tempo da maldade acho que a gente nem tinha nascido
Agora era fatal
Que o faz-de-conta terminasse assim
Pra lá deste quintal Era uma noite que não tem mais fim
Pois você sumiu no mundo sem me avisar
E agora eu era um louco a perguntar
O que é que a vida vai fazer de mim?
