Esta foto es histórica. Porque en ella están 2 de los 3 máximos goleadores en la historia de las eliminatorias sudamericanas y que seguramente hoy disputaron su último partido en la competición (por ver si Lucho sigue en 9 meses). Cracks totales.

Keith Richards hitting with his guitar a fan who gets on stage. It is rumored that in the early 80's, after the murder of John Lennon, the musicians became afraid that something would happen to them by their "fans". Perhaps this is why Keith did this.

Banks can make important, positive contributions to societies, including by playing a key role in addressing inequalities & providing financing for the achievement of the #GlobalGoals. More on Monday’s International Day of Banks. un.org/en/observances…

I'm seeing the phrase "OLS model" crop up again, sometimes in high places. Remember, OLS is an estimator, not a model. Consider two models for estimating a treatment effect, with x the controls, w the treatment indicator.

I correct my students when they mean a "one percentage point" change if they write it as a "1%" change -- for example, in describing unemployment rates. I've seen prominent economists not make this distinction. Am I being too pedantic?
