2) Speaking of weather: Some notable hail fell in Windham on Monday. Keith Bradley submitted this photo of some large hail.

3) Steve Jobs: Visionary Leader. Buzzfeed has helped surface this 1994 video/documentary of Steve Jobs. It comes three weeks from "Jobs," the biopic of the late, former Apple CEO, hitting theaters. That movie is starring Ashton Kutcher.
