5. John Arnold on how BBB treats professional bettors.

6. New federal grants for universities with right-leaning programs?

7. “We review existing research and conclude that period-based explanations focused on short-term changes in income or prices cannot explain the widespread decline [in fertility]. Instead, the evidence points to a broad reordering of adult priorities with parenthood occupying a diminished role.”  Link here.
