Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, der einstige König der Heimwerkersendungen im Fernsehen, hat das Genre der Umstyling-Sendungen, mit dem er berühmt wurde, verrissen und behauptet, Sendungen würden heute nur noch für Menschen in „Not“ gemacht.

Living in a body is an exercise in enduring surprise and accepting change. During our lifetimes, we spring leaks, heal, grow, get sick, and age.

THE WOODLANDS, TEXAS — On stage, before a silent assembly of scientists, many of whom are experts on alien worlds, planetary scientist Paul Byrne assumed his position behind the podium. He had come to present research on Europa, a moon of Jupiter that almost certainly harbors a subsurface ocean. The moon is thought to be among the most promising places to explore for life in our solar system. But much of that promise clings to an unknown — the geologic
What makes someone good at managing their money? Sure, it involves keeping a budget, understanding how finance works and knowing how to make it. But a growing number of financial experts believe that’s only half the battle. Understanding what is known as your ‘money personality’ is just as important – and yet it is often overlooked.

Once upon a time, NHL goaltenders were among the singular stars of the game, and you could tell who they were with just a glance.
Ken Dryden, at 6-feet-4, towered above his contemporaries, a statue when the puck was in the opposite end of the rink, cool and collected when the action was right at his crease. Tony Esposito, a lefty with a butterfly style, quick and smooth, flashed his leather glove to spear pucks as they were headed to
Ah, the great British high street. Over the years—especially the past, say, five to ten years—there’s no denying that the high street has faced some turbulent times. The rise of online shopping already seemed like an insurmountable challenge to overcome without the onset of a deadly virus that caused an unprecedented shutdown of physical shops and that all-important foot traffic.
