Kidney The world’s first ‘smart city’ is being built in Asia- and it promises to serve as an experiment for the high-tech tyranny that is surely to come about as a response to the collapse of this present era of human industrial civilization. Dubbed ‘Songdo’, the city will rest upon a wholly man made island in the Yellow sea and will incorporate just about every aspect of an [...] KIEV, Ukraine (The Blaze/AP) — While some countries, like the United States, have vastly increased the presence of gays and lesbians in popular media, the situation in Ukraine is unique.

So how do you accomplish this? Perhaps the easiest thing to do is move to a country where the locals are already very happy with their work-life balance. In October, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) published the results of a survey of Work-Life Balance in its member countries. It [...] Here’s my opinion. It’s lengthy.
