LINKED August 29, 2010

1. What is it about 20- somethings? From the NYT.
2. Using Satellite parking lot data on Wall Mart to beat the stock market
3. Man goes around South America fathering hundreds of children. Why? Because Germany gives 500 euros a month (or year?) in welfare benefits. German government has paid 3 million euros because of this man. Yet another reason to be disappointed that I couldn’t get German citizenship for WWII crimes…
4. The Summer that ended all summers Also from NYT
5. Fidel Castro has a blog He sounds like an old. confused man.
6. Rubik’s Cube can always be sold in 20 steps or less
7. NYT Write an Entire Movie Review about how the Crimson Key Society shows Love Story every year.
8. Coin Operated Park Benches that have Spikes in China
