| Work Out Like This Medieval Knight Posted: 11 Jun 2020 01:16 PM PDT
Jean II Le Maingre, who was also known as Boucicaut, was a French knight and military leader in 15th-century France. He is well-known for his outstanding military skill and he was considered back then as the "embodiment of chivalry." He was a man who always prepared his body (and probably his mind, too) for war. Boucicaut traveled from Prussia to the Ottoman Empire, fighting in conflicts that helped define the map of medieval Europe. And he couldn't have done so without a stringent, self-imposed exercise circuit, ideal for someone traipsing around in a clattering metal outfit. And because he always made his body ready for battle, it wouldn't be surprising if he did fitness feats that cannot be achieved by an average human being. Boucicaut's most astonishing fitness feat, though, was scaling a ladder while clad in his 60-pound suit of armor, taking each rung with both hands at the same time, without his feet to support him. What was his workout like? Find out over at Atlas Obscura. (Image Credit: Wikimedia Commons) |
| How To Encourage Honest Feedback From Your Colleagues If You’re The Boss Posted: 11 Jun 2020 12:55 PM PDT
People see us differently than how we see ourselves. While you might see yourself in a positive light, other people don't, and more often than not, they would point out what's wrong with you, and sometimes with brutal honesty. If you're the boss, however, getting negative feedback might be something very rare for you, because one does not simply give his boss honest feedback, in fear of getting fired. As a leader, you may believe that you're approachable to your employees, but research shows that you're scarier than you think. I once received this exact feedback during a team member's exit interview: "You're scary." [...] The good news is that there are things you can do to solicit honest, useful, and timely feedback from your team. Here are four strategies to help you collect important impressions on your performance. The strategies are as follows:

Instagram is a social media platform where people dump their best photos. The app has a built-in filter feature which users can use to make their already fabulous photos even more fabulous. Now, the king of design editing softwares, Adobe, has released a new camera app with the powers of Adobe Photoshop, which makes Instagram's filters look obsolete. The app is called Photoshop Camera. Adobe has put some of the powerful photo-editing capabilities of its Photoshop software into a new camera app that uses AI to do all the hard work for you. But the app doesn't just apply filters you can preview before you snap a pic—Photoshop Camera can even replace unwanted parts of a shot while you're still framing it. The new app, available for free on Android and iOS (a paid Adobe Creative Cloud subscription isn't needed) is part of the company's recent efforts to make its powerful image-editing and creative tools available and accessible to a wider user base. It's an approach that, for the most part, hasn't compromised the advanced capabilities of Adobe's image-editing tools. That's thanks to the company's artificial intelligence system, called Sensei, which automates the editing process for novice users who don't have hours to spend on a photo, or years to learn and master a piece of software as complex as Photoshop. Amazing! Learn more about the capabilities of the app over at Gizmodo. (Image Credit: Andrew Liszewski/ Gizmodo) |

Taking care of children is a thrilling and challenging task, one full of ups, downs, twists, turns, and mishaps — colorful experiences which you could write or draw about. "Professional comedy writer and amateur father" James Breakwell does just that in his webcomic series. Where the Unbelievably Bad Webcomic series excels is character development and storytelling. It unravels Breakwell's everyday life with his wife and their four daughters, providing insightful and humorous insights into the chaotic reality of the modern family. Breakwell's kids are the starting point for almost all of his jokes but his comics are an homage to parenting in general. "Everybody's kids are weird and my comics celebrate that," Breakwell said, "anyone who says they have normal children is lying." Check out many of his stories over at BoredPanda. What was your most memorable experience being a parent? (Image Credit: James Breakwell/ BoredPanda) |
| History Teacher Reacts To Bill Wurtz’s “History of the Entire World, I Guess” Posted: 11 Jun 2020 12:55 PM PDT
Bill Wurtz's "History of the Entire World, I Guess" may just be considered as the greatest of the many history videos that can be found in YouTube for two reasons. The first reason was it was able to tell the whole history of the world in just a short amount of time. The second was it was able to teach in an engaging and interesting way. Unfortunately, because the video constantly bombards you with historical facts, you won't find time to process the information in your brain, and you might have to watch it in segments, or watch it for several times. Mr. Terry helps us break down the many historical events that Bill Wurtz covers in his video, and he explains why these moments in history are important. While the video may be a bit long (lasting about 51 minutes), it's not boring. (Video Credit: Mr. Terry History/ YouTube) |
| Katherin Marchenko's Floating Embroidery Posted: 11 Jun 2020 12:54 PM PDT That's the adjective that I will use. Marchenko embroiders images on translucent tulle, which gives them the appearance of suspending in midair or, in the case of this mermaid, mid-water. She explains to Bored Panda that the effect of tulle is that "it makes embroidery visually more voluminous." |

| Posted: 11 Jun 2020 06:44 AM PDT The enigmatic artist Ellen Sheidlin offers no clue as to the meaning of her sculpture aside from the words "This is my body." It immediately reminded me of the liturgy of the Eucharist, but an Instagram commenter suggests that it is an allusion to a famous horror manga about a person who lives inside a chair. |
