January 27 was chosen because it marks the day in 1945 when the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp was liberated by Allied forces... Read More

The way we present ourselves and communicate varies depending on the context. We speak differently with our boss than with a colleague or a brother. These different communication styles raise the question of who we really are... Read More

Pesticides are substances used in agriculture to combat pests and diseases. Many people worry about whether these pesticides contaminate food and ultimately have health effects for consumers. Let’s take a look at the facts... Read More

Our Earth is neither perfectly round nor oval – it is a geoid, which means it is an imperfect sphere with irregularities and depressions. At the poles, it is slightly flattened, while it bulges at the equator. This is precisely why most map projections are inaccurate... Read More

Like many topics, there is room for interpretation here, and sitting per se is not necessarily harmful. (And certainly not comparable to smoking.) In fact, it is possible to stay healthy despite several hours of sedentary office work a day, as long as overall fitness is taken into account and... Read More

However, despite the benefits and opportunities that progress and innovation offer, there are still people who resist change and prefer to rely on tried-and-true methods. Innovation Denial - Why Clinging to Old Ways Can Harm Businesses "We've always done it this way" is a statement I often hear, but it can prevent new technologies and ideas from being adequately utilized to optimize existing...
