What we’re reading on this Friday morning.

- A Wisconsin Public Radio investigation found that only about 10 percent of sand mining operations in the state have installed equipment to monitor the amount of dust and particulate air pollution they generate.
- A new report on the security blunders that allowed a man to storm through the front door of the White House is “shocking,” according to the Christian Science Monitor.
- Time ruminates on youth, early success and how we might be furthering ageism by going bananas for super-young stars like Taylor Swift. Maybe. (“… to be fair, the Beatles weren’t much older than Taylor Swift.”)
- You know all those email scams you laugh about? According to Google, they’re surprisingly effective at getting people to hand over personal information.
