By: Tom Basile， Washington Times
Another week, another headline that has millions wondering what has happened to the America of our youth.

The Man Who Brought Theoretical Physics to Wall Street

By: Kevin Dugan， NY Magazine
There are a vanishingly small number of people whose existence changed Wall Street. One of them was Jim Simons, a former academic mathematician who brought trading closer to the world of theoretical physics - and then exploded the possibilities of how people could make, and lose, money. If he wasn't history's greatest trader, he was among a handful who could ever make that claim. On Friday, the Simons Foundation announced that he had died at the age of 86 in New York City.

The Problem With America's Protest Feedback Loop

By: Jerusalem Demsas， The Atlantic
The country is stuck in a protest feedback loop. In recent months, students opposed to the Israel-Gaza war have occupied lawns and buildings at college campuses across the country. Emulating climate activists who have stopped traffic on crucial roadways, pro-Palestine demonstrators have blocked access to major airports. For months, the protests intensified as university, U.S., and Israeli policies seemed unmoved. Frustrated by their inefficacy, the protesters redoubled their efforts and escalated their tactics.
