A Better Grasp of Medical Cannabis

Things have changed a lot that the much-stigmatized use of marijuana is now gradually becoming more widely accepted by society. Several US states have passed laws legalizing the use of either or both recreational and medical marijuana, especially that more studies are being done to prove its safety, efficacy, and many health benefits. It’s actually the various chemicals in the marijuana plant that helps in the treatment of several ailments and symptoms that have sparked debates in the medical community and even in society at large whether its benefits far outweighs the initial stigma of the plant or is there really nothing to be worried about?

Thus, it shouldn’t come as a surprise if the public is eager to learn more not only about things like glass bongs and water pipes, but also about marijuana in general especially the ones diagnosed with cancer and epilepsy or degenerative conditions like …

What’s Your Take On Social Media?

Technology is the glue that sticks modern life together. Wherever you look, you can see some sort of tech contrivance that people use to make things life easier and increase productivity too. We’ve also found a new pastime that is so powerful it has virtually erased the word boredom in our dictionary. No more idle moments if you can sit or lie down for hours and get to connect with the world through your fingertips. As exciting as this new world has become for the rest of us, we also can’t ignore its many drawbacks especially that we’d rather face our machines than real people or that we mindlessly waste many hours browsing our social media news feed and neglect our real-life duties.

Another important consideration when it comes to social media use is how addictive it is. Your phone is the last thing you use before closing your eyes …

Recognizing Art’s Value

People have artistic tendencies but that does not mean everyone can come up with something really artistically mind-blowing worthy enough of people actually spending money to buy such works of art. Only a few are gifted with artistic talents and sensibilities and not all artists are as good as the rest. A few manage to excel above the rest and they gift the world with real art that you can hang on museums and show off to the world. Over the centuries, there has been a long list of artworks that we have seen come and go. Some have been purchased by rich art collectors to be displayed in their homes or private spaces while some are maintained in public institutions such as museums and art galleries.

Unfortunately, these artworks are always in danger of neglect and possible selling to private collectors because the government is unable to pay …

Pets At Work

Family dynamics have changed these days. Our modern life has a big influence on it but being a family is no longer exclusive to being blood relatives or comprised of a father, mother, and child/children. Pets are part of the family too and many humans have showered their pets with excessive love and attention and even brought some to work just so they can continue caring for them and still earn money to pay for bills and more. It is a prevalent problem among pet parents who don’t have kids of their own because they delay getting married in order to enjoy the single life they end up becoming too attached to their pets and vice versa. Fortunately, society isn’t the way it used to and certain industries have become more flexible to accommodate changing behaviors and lifestyle of the people.

And since most millennials have become pet parents themselves, …

Bitcoin Use Sheds Light On The Dark Web

You may think you know a lot of things about the web but you are greatly mistaken. There are hidden aspects of the web that you are not familiar with especially if you are just the typical person who enjoys social media, award winning site concepts, and contented in watching the occasional videos of your favorite celebrities.

More often than not, they are people with illegal transactions and responsible for crimes such as theft, drugs, or even pornography and pedophilia. They thrive in the dark web because they are free to do as they wish without fear of getting caught by the authorities but it seems that there is not one minor flaw that they fail to look into that can be the reason of their undoing.

Computers Have Gotten Even Smarter

By now, all of us already know that computers rule the world. Wherever you look and everywhere you go, there are all sorts of electrical gadgets that supposedly make our lives better and easier. Computers are at the core of modern life and we have reached the point where even the tiniest of these gadgets can really do big things and we won’t be surprised anymore. The rapid rise of the Internet of Things has further propelled smart technology’s popularity among the public. We use computers in almost everything we do and it only makes perfect sense to develop the technology even further and hopefully make robots with human-like intelligence that are capable of doing a lot of things.

While many of the things we have now have somehow reached that point with computer assistants such as Apple’s Siri and Amazon’s Alexa, we are still far from achieving the fullest …
