So, what will you do if for some reason you are forced to leave your current job?
Introduction If You lose your job what will happen next? Most likely you will try to stick to your comfort zone. This means a lot of us will try to find jobs similar to what we had been doing. For some professions, that won't be much of a problem. However, for others, it might be a bit tricky. Many jobs are becoming obsolete. For example, the job of an analytical chemist is fast disappearing. Most analytical chemistry is now done by machines through a process called solid-state chemistry. The traditional chemist who used to perform wet chemistry, such as mixing substances in test tubes and burettes, is no longer needed. You don't need to be a chemist as such to handle a machine. All you need is someone who can inject samples into the machine, and the machine will do the rest and issue a report.

Can Detoxing Help Women Reduce the Risk of Breast Cancer?
2015 data published on the World Economic Forum website indicate that breast cancer is the 8th leading cause of death among women worldwide. In 2022 it was estimated that breast cancer deaths were 670,000 while 2.3 million women were diagnosed with the disease. Survival rates depends on the stage of development. While 100% of women diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer survive for 5 years or more, the rate goes down to 25% for those diagnosed with stage 4. This means screening for early detection is very important. However, this is an advantage that can be enjoyed by women living in areas where robust health services are accessible. This does not mean that women living in areas where health services are less developed should leave everything to fate. Taking the initiative to educate oneself on the disease could help one to embrace preventing strategies and thus reduce the risk of developing the disease. With determination education is something that could be delivered even to the remotest parts of the earth.

Worldwide, it is estimated that 30 million men are experiencing symptoms of prostate enlargement. Studies show that BPH is histologically evident in up to 90% of men by the age of 85.

Beyond Formal Education: Embracing the Knowledge Revolution Through Reading
‘The Day of the Triffids’, in my opinion is one of the best science fiction novels of all time. In 1951 when the novel was published for the first time, science was, well, still backward and the notion of Star Wars and biotechnology was none existent, or in its infancy. Yet that is what the novel is all about. John Wyndham, the author of the novel could see the future with uncanny ability.
