Viking man

Now that Halloween is behind us, we’ve a brisk march toward the end of the year in front of us. Here are five quick links to contemplate along the way.

Today we’ve got an interesting look at college degrees and whether or not college has been oversold, a look at Steve Jobs’s Buddhism, growing your own vegetables, and, of course, Vikings!

  1. Has college been oversold?: Interesting comparison of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) majors versus other less practical majors. Should there be as many student loans given for non-STEM degrees?
  2. How to shuck corn without leaving any silk: How to get clean ears every time
  3. What kind of Buddhist was Steve Jobs, really?
  4. A subversive plot: a revolution in your own backyard: Great TEDx talk by Roger Doiron on gardening, food, and healthy eats
  5. Vikings steered their ships with rocks: The magic of sunstones.
Enjoy!
