Christianity: Christianity Today reports on the most popular Bible verses, based on on-line access to them. Popularity varies by the user's country.
Computing: How to look at the other person's screen when they call you with a Windows computer problem.
Education: (And politics) FiveThirtyEight has studied the effect of affirmative action in college admission -- without it, minorities are still not as likely to be admitted.
Politics: Most Americans aren't middle-class anymore.
Science: Wired reports on a lacewing fly with an amazing signal that attracts females.
Wired also reports on what happens if you get shot -- and it's not a lot like the way TV and movies portray it.
Sports: FiveThirtyEight analyzes Stephen Curry's long basketball shots, and finds that, so far this season, his accuracy is unprecedented.
Breanna Stewart, of the University of Connecticut Huskies, has become the only player in women's college basketball history to have both more than 300 career blocked shots and 300 career assists. She is also the only women's player (and, I think, the only player of either sex) to have been named most valuable player of the NCAA Final Four for three years. And she has most of this season yet to play, God willing!
