Because these princesses aren’t just swearing to be adorable. They’re swearing for feminism. Here’s some highlights: “What the fuck? I’m not some pretty fucking helpless princess in distress.” “Women are paid 25% ...

Medscape... This blog has discussed bias and how it has the potential to affect patient care, learning, or a even a fair work environment. Regardless of whether it is someone else’s bias (patients who don’t like students) or our own (gender assumptions), being aware of such tendencies is important. A recent article about face-based social attributions serves as a good reminder to challenge our own judgements. Historically, research has shown that facial appearance has been linked to social outcomes, ranging from becoming elected to political office to being convicted of a crime. In fact, studies have found that applicants whose faces looked more competent had a higher likelihood ...

Following Google executive Alan Eustace's supersonic skydive, physicist Dr Simon Foster examines the possibility that such feats might one day become commonplace Google executive Alan Eustace took the world by surprise when he broke Felix Baumgartner's record by leaping over 41 kilometres from the edge of space.

According to Dr Simon Foster, a physicist from Imperial College London, the key difference between the two jumps was that Baumgartner used a capsule to make his ascent, whereas Eustace relied on a high-altitude, helium-filled balloon "I ...

But when he was reunited with the consignment, the owner of the alcohol quickly realized that a lot of it was missing, while some of the wine, beer and cider had passed its best-before date.

Although this is quite concerning because if ...
