Where does Father's Day come from?

Father’s Day is a holiday that honours fathers and celebrates their role in society. It’s celebrated in the United Kingdom on the third Sunday of June, but it wasn’t always a national holiday. In fact, it was imported from the United States, where it started in the early 20th century. The idea of Father’s Day was first proposed by Sonora Smart Dodd, a woman from Spokane, Washington, who wanted to show her appreciation for her father, William Jackson Smart. He was a Civil War veteran and a widower who raised six children by himself. Who came up with the idea of Father’s Day and why? How did Father’s Day become a national holiday in the United States? Is Father’s Day celebrated in other countries? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Why do we get pins and needles?

We all know what it feels like to get pins and needles. It usually happens when we’ve been in the same position for too long, sleeping on one of our arms for example. Bad posture when seated can make this more likely to happen. It’s a slightly uncomfortable feeling of numbness and tingling, as if someone was raking your skin repeatedly with small pointed objects. That’s where the name “pins and needles” comes from, which goes back to the mid-19th century, according to word-detective.com. There is a scientific term for the sensation too by the way: paresthesia. Where does the pins and needles reaction come from? Can it be related to diseases ? When should we worry?

Is excuseflation contributing to rising food prices?

It won’t have escaped your attention that the price of your weekly shopping basket at the supermarket has gone up significantly in the last year. Indeed, recent data from Kantar suggests that families are now spending an extra £16 per week on food shopping, due to inflation. More and more people are being plunged into food insecurity. But what can be done?  Well, in late May 2023, UK Chancellor Jeremy Hunt warned that new rules could be brought in to force supermarkets to treat shoppers fairly. And Bank of England governor Andrew Bailey has previously said that interest rates will continue increasing if companies keep increasing food prices. What is excuseflation?

What is retinol, the miracle anti ageing skincare treatment?

Retinol is a form of vitamin A, which is essential for healthy skin. It has many benefits such as smoothing wrinkles, exfoliating dead cells, clearing pores, and fading dark spots. Retinol works by stimulating the production of collagen, which is the protein that gives your skin strength and structure, and by speeding up the turnover of skin cells, which means it helps remove old cells from the surface of your skin and reveal fresh ones underneath.

How does the "Scully Effect" raise young women's interest in science fields?

The musical film The Little Mermaid was released in cinemas on 24 May 2023. This movie highlights the importance of representations in the media. This effect has a name: the Scully Effect. The combination made for an unprecedented representation of women on TV at the time, with audiences far more accustomed to seeing scientists played by white men. The fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics are grouped together under the name of STEM professions. And Dana Scully was one of the first female characters in such a field to feature on prime-time TV, which would inspire a generation of young women to start careers in STEM professions. The phenomenon has become referred to as the Scully Effect. Is there any data to back it up? Why did Scully become such an inspirational figure? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

YouGov data from 2019 showed that 49% of Brits shower once per day, while 20% do so 4 to 6 times per week. And 6% even shower more than once per day! That’s despite dermatologists saying that we don’t really need to shower every day. According to health professionals, both routines come with certain benefits.

How can I recognise ultra-processed foods?

What do chicken nuggets, margarine and instant noodles all have in common? Wel, they may look tasty, but they’re loaded with sugar, salt, fat and chemicals that strip away their nutritional value. That’s due to the heavy processing that goes into making them, which sees them completely transformed from the original raw ingredients.  And they’re increasingly ever present on our shelves and in our stomachs. In 2022, the National Institute for Health and Care Research found that ultra-processed foods made up almost two-thirds of Britain’s school meals. Furthermore, the British Medical Journal has reported that ultra-processed foods account for 56.8% of total energy intake in the UK diet. Can you identify them by looking at the ingredient lists on product packaging? What’s the difference between processed foods and ultra-processed foods?

What is Karoshi, the dangerous overwork epidemic?

The subject we’re talking about today is most associated with Japan, but is also relevant in many other parts of the world. The Japanese word “Karoshi” means "death by overwork". In a broad sense, it refers to workers who die suddenly from a bodily failure like a stroke or heart attack due to extreme stress and long working hours.  Let’s look into the causes and consequences of a phenomenon that affects millions of workers in Japan and beyond. Overworking in Japan actually became very common during the post WW2 economic boom, when the country rapidly rose to the status of the world's second-largest economy, after the United States.

What is wellness syndrome?

"Here’s my yoga instructor’s number”, "You must try this detox juice", "Download this diet app right now!". Have you ever heard people give this kind of ‘friendly advice’ to others in the past. Perhaps people have said things like that to you, with a little too much insistence for your liking. These days, there’s a certain demand for people to pursue physical and mental well-being, which has become increasingly normalized.

What is the medication Ozempic and why is it being used for weight loss?

Ozempic is a brand name for a medication called semaglutide, which is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), to treat type 2 diabetes. It works by mimicking a natural hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels and is taken through weekly injections.  Ozempic can also lower your risk of having serious heart problems, such as heart attack or stroke, if you have type 2 diabetes and heart disease. But Ozempic is not only used for diabetes. Some people are also using it for weight loss, even though it is not approved by the FDA for this purpose.

What is the optimism bias?

Today we're going to talk about a cognitive bias that causes people to believe, often mistakenly, that they are less likely to experience negative events and more likely to experience positive events than others. Estimates suggest that 80% of us display what’s known as the optimism bias. For example, we might think that we are less likely to get sick, lose our job, or have a car accident than the average person. We might also think that we are more likely to live longer, be successful, or win the lottery than others. Why do we have such a bias? And how does it affect our decisions and actions?

What are subway shirts, the viral anti-harassment trend?

As we head towards another summer, isn’t it a relief to be able to shed the layers and wear lighter clothing when out and about? Well, if you’re a woman, you might have mixed feelings about that, due to the constant threat of unwanted attention from strangers when wearing summer clothes in public.  And a lot of the time, it goes further than just unwanted attention. A YouGov survey released in January 2020 suggested that over half of London women experience some form of sexual harassment on public transport.

Is veganism really the best choice?

Veganism is a lifestyle that excludes all animal products from one’s diet and other aspects of life. That means no meat, eggs or dairy but it can also include things like honey, leather, wool, silk, or anything else that comes from animals.  People choose this lifestyle for different reasons, some for ethical reasons, others for environmental reasons, and some do it for health reasons. Some studies have found that vegan diets can improve heart health and lower risk of some cancers, such as breast, prostate, and colon cancer.

Is it bad to hold in your pee?

I’m sure you can imagine a few scenarios in which you might have resisted the need to pee in the past. It may have been due to the toilets being unclean or closed. Sometimes, a little more privacy would be appreciated, especially at work, for example. There are a number of factors which influence the number of times we pee over the course of a day. These include age, bladder size, the weather, any medication we’re taking, what we drink and the amount we drink for example. Pregnant women also tend to pee more often. On average though, we go to the toilet between four and seven times a day. What explains urinating very frequently or infrequently? Can holding in pee lead to a urinary tract infection?

Why does looking at the sun make me sneeze?

We usually sneeze to protect ourselves from irritants such as pollen, dust, or chemicals. But there are some people who consistently sneeze when they look at the sun. In fact, this affects from 10 to 35% of us when we move from being in the shade to bright light, according to PBS.org. If it happens to you, perhaps you’ve been wondering if it’s an allergy to sunlight, but actually it isn’t. The reaction triggered by sudden exposure to light is called the photic sneeze reflex. It is a congenital physiological anomaly that’s pretty common and totally harmless. Why does this reaction occur? What happens in the body when we sneeze? Should you suppress a sneeze?

What is “Act your Wage”, Gen Z’s latest work-life trend?

After "quiet quitting" and "conscious quitting", here’s yet another new phenomenon related to the world of work that’s growing in popularity. “Acting your wage” involves putting in a certain amount of work, that’s in proportion to your salary. In other words, no going above and beyond; no extra hours and no unattainable goals. And no additional responsibilities outside of your job description, unless your wage goes up first.

What is limb lengthening, the cosmetic procedure going viral on social media?

Many of us would like to be a couple of inches taller, given all the advantages that seem to come with being tall. We feel like we might have a better love life or be perceived as more powerful for example. But there’s not really anything we can do about our height. Or is there? Going back to the 1940s, Soviet doctor Gavril Ilizarov realised that following a fracture, bones like the femur tend to gradually expand to fill the void left behind. He pioneered certain techniques to treat mutilated soldiers returning from World War II. And still to this day, techniques inspired by the work of Ilizarov are still being used. In most cases, this surgery is performed for reconstructive purposes, but bone lengthening is increasingly requested for cosmetic reasons. How does limb lengthening work?

Where does Mother’s day come from?

Mother’s Day is celebrated in many countries around the world, but not always on the same date. For some it’s observed on the second Sunday of May, for others it  falls on the fourth Sunday of Lent but it can also be on the first Sunday of May; the last Sunday of May or even the first Sunday in June. Well, that’s because Mother’s Day has different origins and meanings in different cultures and regions. The early Christian celebration of mothers was called Mothering Sunday.  It became less popular in the 16th century, when England broke away from the Catholic Church but was revived in the early 20th century by a woman named Constance Smith...

What is ergophobia, the fear which can throw our careers off track?

Many of us have joked in the past about being allergic to work, or afraid of it, but did you know that there’s actually a real phobia of work?Have you ever felt anxious or stressed about going to work? Do you dread the thought of facing your boss, your colleagues, or your tasks? Do you avoid applying for jobs or quit them easily? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you might have ergophobia. It’s an extreme, irrational, and debilitating fear of working and of the features of work, such as specific tasks, social relationships, or speaking during meetings. It is considered a form of social phobia or performance anxiety, and is also recognised as a derivative of burnout, due to constantly feeling pressure or excessive expectations at work.

Why are brain chips becoming a reality?

In late May 2023, Elon Musk’s neurotech startup Neuralink announced that it had received authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to carry out its first in-human clinical trials. Neuralink's brain chips have already allowed monkeys to play video games simply by following the screen with their eyes. The hope is that the technology will allow paralysed humans to communicate by moving mouse cursors and typing using their minds.

How can I use the 80/20 method to save money?

If you’re like many people, you probably want to save more money but hate the idea of budgeting. Maybe you don’t like tracking every single expense or feeling restricted by spending categories.

Also known as the anti-budget or the “pay yourself first” budget, it’s a simple approach to saving money that doesn’t require a lot of maths or planning.

Should my next holiday be a staycation?

May 29th was Spring Bank Holiday in UK. Going on holiday is cool, but not always within reach for everyone. It requires time, as you may need to get your leave request approved by your employer, and money. In recent years, a new kind of holiday has been catching on: the staycation. It generally refers to a trip which doesn’t require any overnight accommodation. The idea comes from the United States and really took off following the financial crisis from 2007 onwards. Middle class Americans no longer had the means to go on holiday, so they got creative. The idea then spread to Europe, and more specifically the UK, in 2009, when currency exchange rates became unfavourable. Isn’t that kind of the opposite of a holiday? Is it really possible to relax while surrounded by reminders of work and stress? How has the staycation concept evolved in the last few years? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !

What are the four types of attachment in our relationships?

The types of attachment were theorized by British psychologist John Bowlby in the 1950s. They are widely used to help us understand how we react to situations in our relationships, whether it be with romantic partners, friends or family members.   Bowlby relied on research on the impact of early separations between infants and their mothers, and emphasized the importance of attachment relationships in the social and emotional development of children, as well as their long-term mental health.

What does the future hold for Marvel Cinematic Universe?

On May 3, 2023, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 was released. It has received positive reviews from critics and has grossed over $660 million worldwide, becoming the third-highest-grossing film of 2023. Marvel has long been one of the most prominent and iconic publishers in the world of American comics. From the turn of the century onwards, its cinematic adaptations breathed new life into the franchise. It started out with the somewhat timid X-men film in the year 2000, but really took off with the launch of the shared MCU universe in 2008, when Iron Man was released. Since then, superhero films have become a genre of their own and even took over the blockbuster format. A whopping 28 MCU films have been released in cinemas in total, split across four phases. And with Ms Marvel having recently landed on Disney Plus and Thor: Love and Thunder hitting the big screen next month, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is showing no signs of slowing down.  Has the MCU managed to keep up momentum since Avengers Endgame?

Why are we obsessed with presenteeism?

The trend of workplace presenteeism has increased in recent years, especially during the COVID-19 crisis. A September 2020 report by RAND Europe suggests that presenteeism is mainly driven by stress, suboptimal mental health, lack of sleep and poor financial well-being, which have all intensified during the pandemic. Presenteeism is the practice of being present at one's place of work for more hours than is required, especially as a manifestation of insecurity about one's job. It can also refer to the practice of coming to work despite illness, injury or anxiety, which often results in reduced productivity.  How does presenteeism manifest itself? And what are the causes?

What is the snowball method of paying back debt?

The snowball method is based on the idea of paying off your smallest debt first, while making minimum payments on the rest. Then, you take the money you were paying on that debt and apply it to the next smallest debt, and so on until you’re debt-free. This way, you create a snowball effect that builds momentum and motivation as you see your debts disappear one by one. What are the advantages? What are the disadvantages?
