This 14-Year-Old Girl Just Bought A House In Florida

When a 14-year old can afford to buy a home, does that mean home prices have hit bottom? Willow Tufano is a child of the housing collapse. Her real estate agent mom scrapes together a living in Florida by selling foreclosed properties. Willow found her own niche scavenging abandoned washes, dryers and furniture from her mother’s properties and selling them on Craigslist. In just six months, Willow saved enough money to buy a two-bedroom fixer upper for $12,000. -Chana Joffe-Walt (Photo by Chana Joffe-Walt/NPR)

Oh, kids these days. So responsible.

Superconductor breaks ‘high temperature’ record.

Beijing scientists have found a way to allow superconductivity in iron-based crystals at increased temperatures, by placing them under pressure.

Normal superconductors only work at temperatures at or very close to absolute zero (Zero kelvin), but the new technique allows the material to conduct electricity without resistance at up to 70 kelvin.

The team hopes to push the iron-selenide material to superconductivity above 77 K - higher than the temperature at which liquid nitrogen boils.
