Are Men Smarter at Science Than Women? Men Certainly Think So, Study Shows
A new study found that male college students expressed greater confidence in their own abilities than their female peers."“It’s not simply enough to count up the number of students in the class and say, ‘Well, we have representation of women; women’s experiences in biology are exactly the same as men,’ because what we’re seeing is they’re not,” said Sara Brownell, an assistant professor at the Arizona State University School of Life Sciences, who wrote the study with Katelyn Cooper, a graduate student at the school."
Sara Brownell and Katelyn Cooper are correct.
Possibly there is a greater acceptability of authority.
My experience is of an ability to shutup and soldier.

In His Haste to Roll Back Rules, Scott Pruitt, E.P.A. Chief, Risks His Agenda
Courts have found his orders on lead paint, pesticides and other issues to be poorly crafted, and have struck them down.The Pruitt agenda will continue without him.
It is the reactionary agenda.
It will be followed for as long as the reactionaries have political control.
Congress made the rules in question and can nullify them.

Should a Landlord Refund a Fee for Amenities That Aren’t Available Yet?
After paying $750 for a roof deck and other amenities that haven’t been completed, a tenant would like the money back.Considering the alternatives it may be best to treat the fifteen hundred dollars as protection money.
The City of New York looks to be at a realestate market top.

The Juul Is Too Cool
Kids will keep Juuling until we make vaping as uncool as smoking. Is the Juul craze almost over? Probably not!E cigarettes are down.
Cigarettes are up in the smoking area infront of Pratt.
Pratt no longer allows smoking in the buildings.
That is the best sample I see.

Barry Levinson directed this film about the Penn State sex-abuse scandal and the downfall of the university’s legendary football coach, Joe Paterno.Tragic flaw:

The world turned while Paterno was being heroic.
He had no flaw and then he had no constituency.
