Have you ever had such an experience：When you go to the store alone，a male staff will check your breasts and advise you to wear a bra, it will inevitably be a bit embarrassing. Plus when there are other male customers out there, the situation becomes uncomfortable because we can't really talk much about the kind of bra we want. Its always better when there's a lady at the shop so you can explain to her your girl issues with bras and she'll suggest you the type of bra that might help, but with ma...

Most people have occasional lapses in memory, such as forgetting a new acquaintance’s name or misplacing the car keys. Most of the time, this is simply a sign that a person is a bit too busy or is preoccupied. On the other hand, having a consistently poor memory can be problematic for someone. Many factors play a role in memory loss, including genetics, age, and medical conditions that affect the brain. There are also some manageable risk factors for memory loss, such as diet and lifestyle...

I am a big fan of the holidays, but with it comes winter and that cold air that keeps us indoors most days. It can often be hard to keep two under three entertained. The easy thing to do would be to turn on the iPad or TV, which can both be beneficial and needed sometimes, but it’s usually harder to come up with things that don’t involve technology when you are in a bind. So when that day comes, here are twenty tech-free ways to play. BY VICTORIA SCHNEIDER I am a big fan of the holidays, b...

Places Reviews Many travel bloggers travel and review the places they stay in, the restaurants they eat in, and the local attractions that make any vacation all that more interesting.

We’ve just stepped into the whole new year. Perhaps, most of us just want to forget the sad 2020 and hope 2021 comes with the potential of economic recovery. Every year, businesses need to look back on what they’ve done and evaluate their performance to set goals for the next year. Business goals support firms to orientate their way clearly to avoid inertia. Goal setting is very crucial and necessary for the growth of your business. To help you get started with your business goals this year, we’...

The last six months have been incredibly challenging for businesses as the world tried to cope with the COVID-19 coronavirus. A global pandemic resulting in a complete or partial lockdown of the economy is a scenario that no CMO playbook could have planned for. Photo by Anna Shvets from Pexels ...

By Karen O’Brien, Trufan CMO To say that 2020 has been an interesting year would be an understatement. So much has happened this year it’s hard to keep track of it all. Of course, we have the global pandemic, the protests for racial equality, and the election to name a few. These events and many more have impacted marketing this year and will continue to impact us well into 2021. With this year nearing its end, I wanted to take a look at some predictions for social media marketing in 2021. ...

As is true for so many, the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic marked a huge change in my day-to-day life: My tiny 400-square-foot apartment, which had just enough room for a loveseat, a small table, and a folding chair‚ suddenly became my home office. This unconventional setup seemed bearable when we all thought the confinement would last for a few weeks—a couple of months, tops—but obviously it’s taking far longer to get back to how things used to be before 2020. Luckily, my lease was up in...

Improving your life doesn’t have to be about making one big gesture. Instead, it’s something you can constantly work on—and it typically comes down to the small things you do every day. I understand that no one has all the time in the world to think about self-improvement and personal development when there’s work and family and bills to pay, so let’s start with just 30 minutes a week. Yup, that’s all—now I bet you’re listening. ...

I’ve seen the book covers, the IGTVs, the keynotes – women in eyelash extensions imploring you to stop playing small. Commandment after commandment, we’re offered the vaguest of measurements to stack ourselves against. Go all in! Show up big! Shine brighter! Climb higher. Run faster. Dream bigger. ...

Vets in Dunedin, New Zealand, are making strides in helping endangered penguins. Determined, yet bitten and flipper bashed, they're treating these patients one bird at a time.   Sometimes, saving a species means treating one animal at a time. The veterinarians at The Wildlife Hospital, Dunedin do just that, going small to go big by caring exclusively for native animals. Headquartered close to the wildlife-rich Otago Peninsula on New Zealand's South Island, the hospital is ideally placed to...

My friend sent me this photo of an encased Moleskine notebook with the following text: “Evidently the people are so consumed with the need to write…that they now need to lock these up at Target.” The Classic notebook that my friend showed me retails at Moleskine’s website for $14.95, excluding sales tax. On Amazon, you can find these for as low as $10.58 depending on the day. So the price tag alone doesn’t justify locking the notebooks up as you would a tech gadget or prescription drug. ...

2020 saw rates of social media use soar among all demographics. The shift towards social media has become ever more pronounced over the pandemic with a reported 43% increase in time spent on social media over the past 12 months. ...

In the last decade, social media has become more and more popular for any individual or organization. Things and humans are now able to interact with the world more easily. According to social media statistics, the number of social network users has reached 3.5 billion, equivalent to 46% of the total world population. A person spends an average of 2.6 hours a day using social networking sites. Using social networking sites bring great benefits to our life, but first, we need to define social med...

Animals are our companions, our workers, our eyes and ears, and our food. They appear in ancient cave paintings, and on modern commercial farms. We have domesticated some of them, while others remain wild and are sometimes endangered by our activities. They keep us company, and while they can provide comic relief, they also serve us as valuable assistants. Origins of Domestication Researchers at the University of Chicago estimate that the domestication of dogs took place from 11,000 to 16,...
