I've been busy studying to get a job, but somehow I always find time to read...well, mostly crap, really, or things you would find breathtakingly dull, but here are some interesting bits.

• Road safety over the past century.
• Starbucks' new 31-ounce "Trenta" size vs. the human stomach.
• Up to half of Americans under 65 can be denied insurance due to pre-existing conditions.
• The Atlantic has an essay about the culture of Duke University. It's based on a slideshow a Duke student made and sent around, graphically detailing the 13 men she'd had sex with. I haven't finished the slideshow, but the essay seems spot-on.
• "Sheikh's father is also a rat catcher. His brothers sell vegetables from a cart and wish they could be rat catchers too."
• The Conservative Constitution of the United States.
• I SUPPORT EVERYONE'S TROOPS. Ouch.
