Thursday assorted links

1. Umps are bad at calling strikes.

2. The Non-Non-libertarian FAQ.

3. Small towns are doing better out west.

4. “The Travis Corcoran novel (a sequel to last year’s winner) the moon colonists consult a “Cowen wiki” to figure out where to eat, and Corcoran says in the Afterword that this is a hat tip to you.”  Or so I am told.

5. Why doesn’t the price of on-line higher education fall more?  A very interesting and important symposium.

6. “The data don’t seem to support the claim that human capital investments are most effective when targeted at younger ages.”  A very interesting and important post.
