Robert Meier, President of Job Market Experts, states, “98% of job seekers are eliminated at the initial resume screening and only the top 2% of candidates make it to the interview.” That’s an intimidating statistic given the high unemployment rate and the number of applicants vying for a new job. What this really means is that you need to be able to stand out from the crowd and sell yourself right from the get-go. That entails a professional resume coupled with an exceptional cover letter. ....

The Rise of the Machines: Pros and Cons of the Industrial Revolution


Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. (LC-DIG-nclc-01581)
The Industrial Revolution, the period in which agrarian and handicraft economies shifted rapidly to industrial and machine-manufacturing-dominated ones, began in the United Kingdom in the 18th century and later spread throughout many other parts of the world. This economic transformation changed not only how work was done and goods were produced, but it also altered how people related both to one another and to the planet at large. This wholesale change in societal organization continues today, and it has produced several effects that have rippled throughout Earth’s political, ecological, and cultural spheres. The following list describes some of the great benefits as well as some of the significant shortcomings associated with the Industrial Revolution. ....

Why Do Languages Die?


Noah Tesch was Associate Editor for Encyclopædia Britannica.
How would it feel to be the last person on Earth who speaks your language? For those of us whose native languages have millions of speakers, it’s almost impossible to imagine. And yet languages have come and gone throughout human history, and they continue to do so. Linguists estimate that of the world’s approximately 6,900 languages, more than half are at risk of dying out by the end of the 21st century.
Sometimes languages die out quickly. This can happen when small communities of speakers are wiped out by disasters or war. In El Salvador, for example, speakers of the indigenous Lenca and Cacaopera abandoned their languages to avoid being identified as Indians after a massacre in 1932 in which Salvadoran troops killed tens of thousands of mostly indigenous peasants in order to suppress an uprising. ....

How Did the Massacre of St. Bartholomew's Day Start?

Catherine de’ Medici might say that the Massacre of Saint Bartholomew’s Day was never intended to happen. After all, she was originally involved in a plan to kill only
one person, not thousands.
The start of the massacre can be traced to familial, and religious, origins. King Charles IX of France was Catherine’s second son to sit on the French throne after the death of her husband in 1559. Charles succeeded her eldest son, Francis II, whose reign was a short and unsuccessful one; before Francis died in 1560, his sickly demeanor and weak will had made him susceptible to manipulation from the powerful Guise family, Roman Catholics who wanted to dilute the political power of the rival Huguenots (French Protestants). ....

The pandemic has forced many of us to work from home indefinitely. Whereas before the outbreak, it may have been deemed a “luxury,” a perk that few employers may have been willing to give, working at home is now almost the norm. In fact, in May of 2020, 62% of the workforce was working comfortably in the confines of their own walls. While some returned to the “office” as the year wore on, that number still hovered around 40% in October. And while surprisingly productivity actually improved, at least in the short term, as the pandemic rages on, there are signs of that waning. To help keep you sane and even improve ....
