This gorgeous video about the Hubble Space Telescope puts our existence int In 1995, astronomers pointed the Hubble Space Telescope toward a seemingly empty region of space to see what was there. What they found was astounding: almost 3,000 objects, too faint to see with the naked eye. In a short animated video from Vimeo user Bliink, we learn just what the astronomers discovered, and why this seemingly empty region of space is so important to understanding the universe. The video is a gorgeous, minimal affair that outlines the Hubble Deep Image Survey, and puts the scale of that first image into perspective. The point of space that the scientists observed is about the size of the end of a ballpoint pen, or about one 24-millionth of the whole sky. In that tiny speck is a huge number of galaxies and stars, proving that the universe is an incredibly crowded place. Later surveys after the telescope was upgraded found even more objects.

We literally get hundreds of questions a week from readers all around the globe. In fact, this past month we’ve had visits from 171 different countries.

Vegan Cooking and Nutrition Made Easy and Fun with the Vegan Coach Social Media Has Hijacked Our Minds. Click Here to Fight It Banana Bread Recipe Banana bread is one of those things that people know of, have eaten, but aren't quite sure why it's so popular and even more confusing ...why it's so hard to get a good banana bread recipe! We have found the answers to both those questions. Banana bread is a popular baked good partially out of necessity. Even with refrigeration advances, bananas are one of those fickle fruits that will still rot (quite quickly) no matter what you do. Not wanting to waste money and still edible fruit, but not wanting to eat 5 or more bananas at a time, thrifty bakers found ways to incorporate bananas into recipes that would not only taste great but would save them from throwing their hard earned money away through waste. Finding a good banana bread recipe is like finding any good recipe. The following recipe is not one of those, and it isn't one of the dry or tasteless or generally bad recipes.

How setting “anti-goals” can keep work from being miserable Serena Williams, the world’s greatest tennis player and new mother, graces the cover of Vogue magazine for February, together with her daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian Jr, who at three months is the youngest Vogue cover model ever. And she can already list one Grand Slam win, while still in utero. In the cover story, Williams talks about her new life as a mom and wife, her career ambitions (the cover touts her “comeback,” although that does not seem apt, since she never went away—she just gave birth) and how motherhood will affect (as in, help) each of those things. The piece also shares a terrifying episode, in which Williams tells the story of delivering her child, the days that followed, and how she risked dying. After an emergency C-section, Williams encountered what is an often fatal complication: Blood clots. The next day, while recovering in the hospital, Serena suddenly felt short of breath. This is not just something that affects black mothers of lesser means.
