Earth is constantly moving. As it zooms around the sun, Earth also spins on its axis, like a basketball on the tip of a player’s finger.
So, how fast is Earth moving? In other words, how fast is it rotating on its axis and how fast is it orbiting the sun? To go even further, how fast is the solar system orbiting the Milky Way galaxy?
Magazine ads featuring sex are on the rise, with the exception of two not-too-sexy industries.
Sex still sells: A study from the University of Georgia (UGA) looked at sexual ads that have appeared in magazines over the last 30 years and found that the numbers are going up.
Omega-3 fatty acids have so many benefits, such as a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, type 1 diabetes, certain types of cancer, glaucoma, and stroke. This nutrient is essential for the body’s function, but our bodies are unable to produce them on their own. Therefore, it’s important that we get enough Omega-3 fatty acids from outside sources.
If you’re looking for a way to get your Omega-3 fatty acids in, there are so many ways to do so. If introducing Omega-3s into your diet by eating two to three servings of fish per week doesn’t seem feasible, supplements such as cod liver oil and fish oil are here to help.
Many people use these supplements to boost their health and prevent chronic diseases. In fact, research from the National Institutes of Health showed that, in 2012, 7.8% of adults in the United States and 1.1% of children had taken a fish oil supplement in the previous 30 days.
When should you incorporate a business? The short answer is to do it prior to starting or launching the company. The sooner your business incorporates as an entity formation, the sooner it receives limited liability protection that ensures the safety of your personal and professional assets.
However, is there a “best” time to incorporate a business? For example, is it better for a business to incorporate during a specific season, such as spring or winter? How much of a factor does timing play in business incorporation?
Let’s examine two of the most popular options for incorporating a business: choosing a delayed filing versus incorporating now instead of at a later date.
Businesses have weathered various storms through out the last year due to the instability and changing markets caused by COVID-19. With limited resources and budget constraints, companies have struggled to digitize their entire organization for remote work and keep business afloat during tough times.
Various industries took colossal hits to their revenue such as hospitality, personal services, and wholesale/distribution. While companies start to return to the office, preparing for unforeseen futures is key to survival and growth in the future. It’s time to take a look at the hard lessons learned from this past year to be prepared for whatever lies ahead.
A virtual private network (VPN) is a great way to ensure a baseline of security for any organization’s online operations. A VPN creates a connection to the internet that’s masked from the outside world. Because your internet protocol (IP) address is hidden, you’re able to keep information like your identity and location away from prying eyes when conducting business online, so potential attackers simply won’t know who or where you are.
There are many services available to create a software-based VPN. Some businesses opt for a more bespoke solution that they can design from the ground up. There are VPN devices as well that create dedicated machines with a built-in VPN as a part of the system architecture. It is important to understand all of the options when determining which one is right for you.
Your company’s mission is only as good as your execution, and being flexible to changes over the years is critical to executing successfully. This lesson was something that the team at Toms learned over the years, the Los Angeles-based company’s chief strategy and impact officer, Amy Smith, said at Inc.’s virtual Purpose Power Summit this week.
In 2006, Blake Mycoskie founded the buy-one-give-one pioneer Toms with a mission of making shopping for shoes a charitable action. The model–for every pair of shoes purchased, another is donated to a person in need–became popular, and other mission-driven brands followed suit. However, the company retired this famous program in 2019 to instead donate a third of company profits to different charities and partners with the goal of making a larger impact.
REMEMBER WHEN WEB browsers were useful tools? Remember when you could follow sites you liked, check your email, and see your calendar, all without leaving the browser? Or, I should say, remember when you could do all that without Big Tech feeding your personal data into the yawning maw of surveillance capitalism?
I remember those days because I am still living in them, thanks to a web browser you might not have heard of: Vivaldi.

Vertigo-inducing swimming pools seem to be in fashion at the moment and following news of the Brooklyn Point tower’s infinity pool in New York City, London now boasts its own one-of-a-kind swimming pool, too. This one goes much further in its pursuit of thrills though, as it invites visitors to swim between two high-rise buildings in a clear acrylic box.
The Sky Pool was designed by HAL Architects and involved engineers Arup and Eckersley O’Callaghan, plus acrylic fabricator Reynolds Polymer Technologies. The project is part of London’s Embassy Gardens, a mixed-use residential development alongside the US Embassy building by Kieran Timberlake.
