The Rocket Scientist Quarterbacking an Unlikely NFL Playoff Contender - WSJ
Before Dobbs was a journeyman-turned-sensation for the Vikings, he majored in aerospace engineering at the University of Tennessee, where he was the rare SEC football player to take grueling science classes while also preparing to play in the NFL. Even more remarkably, Dobbs has kept up with the science while making millions of dollars in the pros: he has spent two offseasons moonlighting at NASA, where his bosses give him rave reviews and say he was just like any other engineer working on the Artemis program, except for how he made the football fans in the office giddy with excitement.

In Switzerland, Most People Rent for Life. Is That Really What They Want? - The New York Times
Martin Hoesli, a professor at the University of Geneva who has studied Swiss homeownership for decades, said that even though the math favors homeownership in the long run, many Swiss cannot afford a down payment, which by law is a minimum of 20 percent of the purchase price. Add to that the 4 percent in transfer costs, and the minimum down payment for the average-priced house in Switzerland — currently $1.4 million, according to Wüest Partner — is $336,000.

The N.F.L.’s Rear Guard Is Angry About the “Tush Push” | The New Yorker
