Things I learned lately 11 Jul

• More than 3 million seniors in the US are still paying off their student loans.
• Nearly 50% of millennials who have or had student-loan debt think college wasn't worthwhile.
• Average temperatures for most of France, Germany, and northern Spain during the June 2019 heat wave were up to 18 degrees Fahrenheit (10 degrees Celsius) above normal, hotter than any other June in recorded weather history.
• A family court judge in New Jersey showed leniency toward a teen aged male who raped a drunken female party-goer in the basement and filmed the assault. He then shared the video with friends, including a caption, "When your first time having sex was rape." The judge noted that the boy came from a good family, attended an excellent school, thrived academically, and served as an Eagle scout. He expressed concern over why the prosecutor hadn't explained to Mary, who is using a pseudonym to protect her identity, and her mother how pressing charges against the teen's attacker could ruin his life.
• A man pulled over in Las Vegas for driving in the HOV lane used the excuse, "I have a body ion the back", referring to the dead body being driven to a funeral home.
• Tesla sold 67,650 Model 3 electric cars in the US through in the first half of 2019.
• Halle Berry, while still a struggling actress, often slept in a homeless shelter.
• Bees make 'bee bread', which is an edible form of pollen made of a mixture of pollen and honey.
• An area as big as the US would need new trees planted right now to hope to offset climate change.
