Sports might not be as significant and effective in human life and activity as science, technology, education, business, and politics but they definitely have their own role to play in society not only today but also from the days of ancient Greece and Rome. Next to the music, film, and TV industries, sports entertain or, in rare cases, even offer national pride to fans around the world. There have been various polls and rankings in many different countries about the world’s greatest athletes of all time with most of them either focusing on a few major sports or, even worse, focusing exclusively on athletes from one country ignoring, in this way, many great athletes from different parts of the world. With this list we will attempt to rank the 11 greatest male athletes in history by individual sport….READ MORE

Being rich and famous is something many people desire. Especially those involved in the entertainment industry.

But some of these actions are so outrageous that it makes you wonder how a sane person can execute them. Furthermore, you would think that celebrities, personalities who are admired by such a huge mass of people, would at least try to be role models and elevate our faith in humanity….READ MORE

Scholarship support not only makes attending college possible but it also helps spare graduates from excessive and debilitating debt. According to the Wall Street Journal, student debt surpassed $1 trillion nationally in 2011 and that appears to happen because even though parents still value contributing to their children’s college tuition, the amount of families that can afford to contribute has declined. Despite the fact that the country weathered the worst of the recession, many states are still reeling from the economic slump and most have made large cuts in public service funding—including higher education. As a result, public colleges and universities have increased tuition. I know what you’re probably thinking, but as someone who spent a good seven years in law school (and miraculously graduated) I can assure you that going to college is totally worth it….READ MORE

There are moments we all wonder: Is working at a job for a paycheck a waste of time and life? To answer this question properly it would be wise to break down the mind-set behind it. On one hand a 9–5 job offers you a more steady, comfortable, and independent living, and helps you fulfill many of your goals and dreams. On the other hand, it’s true that we spend a significantly large amount of time at work, especially if it’s a job we don’t like (or even worse, one we hate) then life can really be dull and painful. That, of course, is not the case for every job out there, however. Some pay very well and are fun to do at the same time. Who, for example, wouldn’t like to drive Ferraris and get paid mad bucks to do it? Who would say no if they were offered the chance to try some of the most expensive and delicious chocolate in the world and guess what, get paid for it too….READ MORE

Despite the fact that most living organisms on Earth live peacefully and in perfect harmony with Mother Nature, there are some creatures that are absolute predators and in constant competition with other forms of life. According to most dictionaries, an invasive species is a plant or animal that is not native to a specific location. In other words, an introduced species that has a tendency to spread and is able to cause damage to the environment, the human economy, and human health. Some of these invasive creatures have caused the extinction of whole entire species and have irreparable damage to a surrounding ecosystem. With that said, don’t be fooled into thinking that these creatures are scary or even dangerous looking….READ MORE

They lived here in peace and prosperity until around the early seventeenth century when Europeans first arrived and brought with them their own civilization and culture.

From Squanto, interpreter to the pilgrims in the new world to John Herrington, the first tribally enrolled Native American Indian astronaut, these are 25 great Native Americans That Helped Define History….READ MORE

Social media and mobile technology have given rise to a strange phenomenon called the selfie. But not everyone is familiar with the term (though we know our readers are), so here’s a brief definition: a selfie is a picture of yourself, usually shared on any social networking site. Sounds totally innocent and cool, right? Well, we were surprised to find out that the American Psychiatric Association has classified the taking of selfies as a mild mental disorder, but we’re afraid that this isn’t even the most shocking or negative news concerning this trend. Other than being an outright expression of narcissism and vanity, selfies can be dangerous for your health and actually “kill” you….READ MORE
