What businesses can learn from the political divide in the US

By the time you read this, I hope you’ve at least received your far-delayed tax return due to the US government shut down.

Anthem is going to need its version of the ‘Taken King’ expansion

But to be honest, the release and subsequent problems with the game have us wondering… what happened to Anthem?

Asteroid-powered volcanoes killed the dinosaurs, scientists say

It’s almost 40 years since scientists discovered what wiped out the dinosaurs: an asteroid hitting Earthnear modern-dayMexico. That was it, or so we thought.
