Congrats to Julia Collins, Jeopardy Julia!
I love trivia games! So as you can imagine, I have very much enjoyed watching Julia Collins (@JeopardyJulia) as she went on a very long winning streak on my favorite game show, Jeopardy! Julia won 20 games in a row, the most consecutive wins by a woman and second only to the phenomenal Ken Jennings. Julia is always smiling and almost always right. She has been correct 92% of the time when she attempts to reply to an Answer with a Question, which is the format of Jeopardy.
Tonight I watched Julia's reign come to an end. I'll miss seeing her answer the trivia questions with ease, but will look forward to when she returns to the show for the Jeopardy Tournament of Champions. Congratulations Julia on your amazing run on Jeopardy!

Malala Yousafzai - Speech on Education
Last week, Malala Yousafzai gave a short but important speech at the U.N. Malala is a 16 year old girl from Pakistan who was shot in the face by a member of the Taliban because she dared to speak out in favor of education for all children, both boys and girls. She believes that "the pen is mightier than the sword" and that the terrorists who shot her and killed teachers and blasted schools are afraid of her and the changes that are happening in society. Please watch this amazing speech and think about what Malala is saying. You can read more about Malala here.
