These Are the Most Secluded Hikes in the U.S.

In my younger years, I frequented the Sherburne Wildlife Management Area (WMA), deep within Louisiana’s 1 million–acre Atchafalaya River Basin, to hunt migrating waterfowl or whitetail deer in fall and winter. In summer, I always returned to hike and camp and was usually the only soul on the maze of trails or in the bayous, making the region a far cry from the crowded state parks nearby. The property became a place of solace, where I knew I could trek for miles in the backcountry, sharing it only with bears and alligators.

These WMAs exist in most states and are maintained for wildlife habitat. They make for fantastic hiking trails and pristine forests after hunters pack up for the season. With our national parks growing ever more crowded, we rounded up seven of the best WMAs around the country for those who want to avoid the masses.

Industry 4.0 could create millions of new jobs

Leave a comment

.

The digital revolution is changing how we live and work.

Headlines like these are causing people to panic:

  • “How the robots will take your job and kill the economy” (Fast Company, 2015)
  • “Automation could kill 73 million U.S. jobs by 2030” (USA Today, 2017)
  • “Job loss from AI? There’s more to fear!” – (Forbes, 2018)

However, that story is more balanced than these headlines imply.

Industry 4.0

Industry and business are being transformed by a new wave of digital technology.  

Mobile sensors can track inventory from the manufacturing floor, all the way through the shipping channel, to a retail shelf or a customer’s door. Machines send out alerts about quality control, errors, supply shortages or breakdowns. Predictive software automatically schedules maintenance for trucking fleets based on travel data and past repair timelines. Behavioral analytics help financial institutions spot suspicious activity in bank and credit card accounts.

All of this is enabled by various technologies: mobile, cloud computing, analytics, automation, artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), 3D printing, autonomous robots, and augmented- and virtual reality (AR/VR).

Dangerous liaisons: Fox News teams up with Russian agents to undermine democracy

Leave a comment

.

With the revelation this week that Fox News helped Russian intelligence agents spread the vulgar conspiracy theory about Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich’s murder in 2016, we have entered a dark and dangerous place. We’re at the point where a major American cable news channel teamed up with forces from a foreign adversary in order to damage a major political party in this country. What do we even call this? Treason? The fifth column inside the United States? We are so far beyond Fox News being a useful platform for Republicans to spread bits of partisan misinformation. We’re talking about a huge, powerful media entity that essentially aligns itself with foreign agents to undermine American democracy from within. And no, that’s not hyperbole. Those are the established facts, per a Yahoo News investigation.

How to manipulate your memories to recall vacations more fondly

Leave a comment

Click the link below the picture

.

A vacation might last only a few days or weeks, but it stays with you as long as you remember it. And memories are funny things — they don’t always reflect reality.

That’s one of the quirks of memory: the brain focuses on select pieces of an experience, rather than evenly remembering the whole thing. People also tend to remember endings more than middles.

“The vacation includes three parts: the time before, the time during, and the time after,” says Dan Ariely, a professor at Duke University who studies human decision-making. Ariely is a behavioral economist, meaning he uses psychology to explain economics.

There’s An Environmental Disaster Unfolding In The Gulf of Mexico

Leave a comment

.

As fishermen deep in the Louisiana bayou, Kindra Arnesen and her family have faced their share of life-altering challenges in recent years. 

First came Hurricane Katrina, the 2005 monster storm that devastated her small fishing community in Plaquemines Parish before roaring up the Gulf Coast, killing more than 1,800 people and destroying $125 billion in property. Five years later, BP’s Deepwater Horizon drilling rig exploded 40 miles offshore, spewing nearly 200 million gallons of crude. The fisheries have not fully recovered more than nine years later, nor has her

family. But this year may be worse. A historic slow-moving flood of polluted Mississippi River water loaded with chemicals, pesticides and human waste from 31 states and two Canadian provinces is draining straight into the marshes and bayous of the Gulf of Mexico — the nurseries of Arnesen’s fishing grounds — upsetting the delicate balance of salinity and destroying the fragile ecosystem in the process. As the Gulf waters warm this summer, algae feed on the freshwater brew, smothering oxygen-starved marine life.

How to Turn Yourself Into a Morning Person, Backed by Science

Leave a comment

.

First things first: Getting up early is not a prerequisite for success. Even though The Wall Street Journal says that 4 a.m. may be the most productive time of the day, the most successful people wake up and start work whenever the (heck) they decide is the best time for them.

That’s because the only thing that truly matters is what you accomplish while you work.  What time you start, and what time you finish is unimportant. What matters is what you achieve

But still: Even if you’re a committed night owl who loves to wake later in the day and work late into the evening, you may not have that luxury. Maybe you have clients in other time zones. Maybe you run a business that requires you start your day early.

Maybe you have little or even no control over your start time, much less your stop time.

If that’s the case, you owe it to yourself to become a morning person. You’ll feel better and get more done.

The singer R. Kelly, already under indictment in Chicago on state charges of aggravated sexual assault and abuse, was arrested Thursday night by federal agents on charges related to child pornography and other federal crimes, officials said.

Mr. Kelly was taken into custody over a 13-count indictment that includes enticement of a minor and obstruction of justice, in addition to the child pornography charges, said Joseph D. Fitzpatrick, an assistant United States attorney for the Northern District of Illinois. Mr. Kelly was arrested in Chicago.

Federal prosecutors in Brooklyn are expected to unveil a separate indictment on Friday containing additional charges against Mr. Kelly, according to two law enforcement officials.
