6 Things To Look For When Buying Sneakers

If you are going to buy sneakers for the first time, you should consider a lot of important factors. Since foot each is different, it makes sense to take into account some important elements like size, fit, comfort level, and shape of the shoe before making a purchase. Let's consider some of the primary factors when looking for a good pair of sneakers. 1. Fit It's important to ensure that the shoe is the best fit. Therefore, you should put them on with socks that you usually wear. Besides, you should walk or run for a couple of minutes to get a feel of how comfortable they are. Ideally, the shoe should offer a secure fit around your heel. There should be no slippage at all. In other words, the shoes must have enough space so that your toes could wiggle. You may have to get one size bigg...

5 Things New Graduates Should Do To Plan Their Careers

Today’s graduates start their job search with a belief that they should enter their company or industry of choice immediately after graduation. At least that’s what we’ve observed in our experience advising thousands of college students over the years on how to launch their careers. Research has shown that younger millennials and older Gen Zers – that is, those born between 1990 and 1998 – are motivated by roles that are meaningful and where they can be given responsibility quickly. They tend to change jobs often and are looking for ways to move up the ladder and increase their salary at a faster pace than other generations currently in the workforce. From what we’ve observed, they are instructed by their parents and career advisers to look for opportunities that align with their passion...

Are People Of Color Being Replaced – Replacement Theory Isn’t New

3 Things To Know About How This Once-Fringe Conspiracy Has Become More Mainstream - Replacement Theory Isn’t New. The recent grocery store mass shooting in Buffalo, New York, is placing a spotlight on white supremacy. Eighteen-year-old Payton Gendron drove three hours from his home in Conklin, New York, to the Tops grocery store on May 14, 2022, and shot 13 people – most of them Black – killing 10 shoppers. Gendron’s gun had racist expletives written on it, and his 180-page online manifesto also repeated key elements of replacement theory. This conspiracy theory, with roots in French nationalism of the 20th century, falsely warns that Western elites and Jews are bringing immigrants into a country to replace white people. Since the shooting, several Republican politicians and commentator...

Because of Climate Change Landfills Among Many Things Burning

Extreme heat over 110°F in India and Pakistan continues to shatter records, threaten human health, cause landfills to combust, threaten power outages, and imperil Indian wheat crops struggling to make up for shortfalls caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. “Why is it exceptionally warm this year? The only reason is global warming,” Roxy Mathew Koll, a climate scientist at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, told Bloomberg. Meanwhile, in the southwestern U.S., wildfires are ripping across drought-dried landscapes, especially in New Mexico. A million acres across the U.S. have burned already this year as, “Climate change is taking a situation that would be bad for us normally,” University of Arizona climatologist Gregg Garffin told The Guardian, “and turning the dial up.” (India...

Daylight Saving Time Starts – 11 Things You Can Do To Adjust To Losing That Hour Of Sleep

As clocks march ahead and daylight saving time begins, there can be anxiety around losing an hour of sleep and how to adjust to this change. Usually an hour seems like an insignificant amount of time, but even this minimal loss can cause problems. There can be significant health repercussions of this forcible shift in the body clock. Springing forward is usually harder that falling backward. Why? The natural internal body clock rhythm in people tends to be slightly longer than 24 hours, which means that every day we tend to delay our sleep schedules. Thus, “springing forward” goes against the body’s natural rhythm. It is similar to a mild case of jet lag caused by traveling east – in which you lose time and have trouble falling asleep at an earlier hour that night. Even though it’s tec...

IOT – Using Blockchain To Secure The ‘Internet Of Things’

The world is full of connected devices – and more are coming. In 2017, there were an estimated 8.4 billion internet-enabled thermostats, cameras, streetlights and other electronics. By 2020 that number could exceed 20 billion, and by 2030 there could be 500 billion or more. Because they’ll all be online all the time, each of those devices – whether a voice-recognition personal assistant or a pay-by-phone parking meter or a temperature sensor deep in an industrial robot – will be vulnerable to a cyberattack and could even be part of one. Today, many “smart” internet-connected devices are made by large companies with well-known brand names, like Google, Apple, Microsoft and Samsung, which have both the technological systems and the marketing incentive to fix any security problems quickly.

Yep Smart Devices Do Spy On You – 2 Computer Scientists Explain How The Internet Of Things Can Violate Your Privacy

Have you ever felt a creeping sensation that someone’s watching you? Then you turn around and you don’t see anything out of the ordinary. Depending on where you were, though, you might not have been completely imagining it. There are billions of things sensing you every day. They are everywhere, hidden in plain sight – inside your TV, fridge, car and office. These things know more about you than you might imagine, and many of them communicate that information over the internet. Back in 2007, it would have been hard to imagine the revolution of useful apps and services that smartphones ushered in. But they came with a cost in terms of intrusiveness and loss of privacy. As computer scientists who study data management and privacy, we find that with internet connectivity extended to devices ...

Things You’ll Never Hear A Slim, Chic And Savvy Woman Say

I've spent years studying French women, as well as other naturally slim people, and there's a method to their "slimness," but it's probably not what you think. It doesn't involve dieting and deprivation. It's an attitude, personal style, a way of looking at the world, and it starts from within. While diet programs and other approaches keep you focused on your "weight problem," the French approach to living a slim lifestyle is probably counter intuitive to what you've been taught. From the countryside of Provence to the bistros of Paris, I've paid close attention to the attitudes and behaviors of slim, chic and savvy women. Their approach to food, weight and life is very different than the "no pain, no gain" mindset of the American culture. Instead, their mindset is rooted in pleasure ...

5 Things I’ve Learned Remembering Martin Luther King Jr. And Curating The MLK Collection At Morehouse College

For the past 11 years, civil rights historian Vicki Crawford has worked as the director of the Morehouse College Martin Luther King Jr. Collection, where she oversees the archive consisting of iconic sermons, speeches, writings and other materials belonging to King. Few archives of historical papers compare with the importance of the Morehouse King Collection. Aside from King’s life, the collection chronicles many of the major events that occurred during the civil rights movement. Since joining Morehouse, Crawford says she especially enjoys introducing younger generations to King and helping them understand the powerful lessons of the struggle for social justice, particularly how everyday people organized and worked for social change. Of the countless things she has seen, read and learn...
