It’s almost summertime, which means  Cancer szn , bb!!! From June 21 to July 22, expect the waterworks to be in full swing. And I’m not just talking about the ocean, pool, or sweat from all your at-home workouts. Cancer season means ~emotions~, aka a few tears and all the deep feels. If you didn’t know,  Cancer is a water sign , so like their fellow water friends (hi, Pisces and Scorpio), Cancers are totally submerged in their surroundings.  They simply cannot help that they’re ruled by their emotions!!  They perceive others’ feelings intensely—like, I’m talking borderline  psychic  deep. For better or worse, Cancers tend to be clouded by their many changing moods and vivid imagination…which *cough* is why we are here today. Before we do a deep dive, lemme make one thing clear:  Cancers are NOT crybabies .   For some reason, these sweet summer babes are associated with very false stereotypes. But fret not, I’m here to clear all this up, because th...

Save To lie is human. People lie in one out of three to five interactions on an average ( 1 ). Bella De Paulo, a psychologist at the University of Virginia, conducted a research titled, “The Many Faces of Lies.” According to the study, people mostly lied about their feelings and opinions to either hide their inadequacies or not hurt somebody’s feelings ( 2 ). Over the years, there have been many theories and perception to identify a liar. Some of the signs include averting gaze, blinking, nervousness, fake smiles, incoherence in speech, inconsistency in statements, and emphatic language ( 3 ). If you are dealing with compulsive or pathological liars, it becomes important to understand why they lie. Listed below are seven reasons people lie. Take a look. Why Do People Lie? https 1. To Manipulate People Shutterstock The biggest liars are manipulators. This particular personality is known as a Machiavellian personality. Machievellianists are people who lie for selfish reasons.

They promise "agility over utility." We like e-bikes a lot. We particularly like practical, affordable e-bikes where you can carry tons of stuff and go for miles and miles. And then there is the Gogoro Eeyo. I could go all Eeyore and just whine about it, but it is taking a different approach. Gogoro founder Horace Luke explains: E-bikes don’t all need to be heavy cargo haulers or feel like you’re riding a battery, so we created the Eeyo 1 to be ultralight, quick, responsive, and fun. With its iconic open-frame design and new powerful Eeyo Smartwheel, Eeyo 1 is an adrenaline time machine bringing back the pure joy of riding we all once had. TreeHugger admired the Gogoro approach to scooters, with their swappable batteries, which were great for people who live in apartments and do not have a place to plug in and charge. They never brought these to the USA because the market for scooters is small. But I would have thought that would have been an interesting approach ...

If people don't have to buy drinking water in bottles, a huge quantity of plastic waste will be diverted. The problem of plastic pollution pouring into the world's oceans is a big and daunting one, for which countless solutions have been offered. Improve collection services! Build better recycling facilities! Force companies to redesign single-use packaging! Tell people not to buy it! The advice goes on and on. All of these suggestions are important and play a part in reducing ocean plastic pollution, but there is one idea that could make a bigger dent than the rest:  Fix local drinking water supplies and eliminate the need to buy single-use plastic water bottles.  This could be the most effective way to reduce households' plastic waste, particularly in developing countries. This recommendation was made by the authors of a  new blue paper  that examined strategies for addressing plastic pollution "in the context of an already stressed ocean." It was commissioned b...

Despite the pandemic, takeout orders have risen. It's time to reclaim lost skills. I've been thinking about takeout lately, and the fact that despite most people being stuck at home with nowhere to go, the number of takeout food orders has actually increased in the United States during the coronavirus pandemic. Here's what the  Huffington Post says  about it: "As the weeks pass, more Americans are picking up food at restaurants, according to Gallup polling. The market research firm CivicScience finds consumers reporting more use of food delivery since the pandemic began. Meanwhile, the online ordering platform GrubHub reported 20 percent more daily orders in April than in the same month last year." This is surprising because it goes against the logical assumption that more time at home would mean more time spent cooking meals from scratch. Indeed, the Huffington Post article offers a lengthy history of takeout food and explains that it didn't catch on among Am...

With more people working from home, the little variety store may thrive again. My late father used to point to a little corner store on Dewson Street in Toronto, near where he grew up, and say "there's the store that made me the man I am!" (he was a big guy.) In many parts of the city, corner stores were a key part of our lives. Vancouver planner Sandy James notes that they still could be: Coming out of the pandemic is the need to access goods right in your neighbourhood. The local corner store used to fill this role, with shopkeepers knowing everyone in the neighbourhood, and providing a place where locals can buy milk, cheese, some staples and hear the local goings-on and gossip. They were once necessary in streetcar suburbs when people didn't drive to get their groceries in one big load. A hundred years ago many people didn't have fridges, so you wanted to buy your milk fresh every day close to home. But they also helped define a neigborhood. Kaid Benfield once...

Black and Asian people in England are up to 50 per cent more likely to die after being infected with COVID-19, an official study says, reinforcing previous reports which indicated ethnic minority groups were more at risk from the virus. The report by Public Health England (PHE) to examine disparities in how the disease affected people, showed there was a significant disproportionate effect on ethnic minorities, while confirming death tolls among the elderly were far higher. The report comes as a United Nations human rights official highlighted the "devastating impact" of the disease on those communities in Britain and other countries. "Death rates from COVID-19 were higher for Black and Asian ethnic groups when compared to White ethnic groups," the PHE report said. The report said that people of Bangladeshi ethnicity had approximately twice the risk of death than people who were white British. Those who are of Chinese, Indian, Pakistani or other Asian ethnicity, as ...

Mass extinctions are very important to how life evolved on Earth. For example, when an asteroid hit the Earth 66 million years ago, the resulting dinosaur extinction led mammals to take their place. My colleagues and I have published new research on the mass extinction that took place 359 million years ago at the boundary between the Devonian and Carboniferous geological periods. There have been many previous speculations as to the cause of this event, including volcanic eruptions, asteroid impacts, climate change, sea level changes, wildfires and the rise of the first forests. But we have shown that the extinctions on land at this time may have been caused by a catastrophic thinning of the ozone layer that let in damaging levels of ultra-violet radiation. Something similar contributed to the mass extinctions at the end of the Permian and Triassic periods, but these events were caused by volcanic eruptions. Our research suggests the Earth has a natural internal process triggered by a w...
