Luckily, today’s interconnected world grants us access to resources and talent from the most remote corners of the earth.

    One year later, public discourse on refugees is arguably more frequent and nuanced — but the crisis is far from over. There are still at least 65.3 million people who have been forcibly displaced from their homes around the world, 21.3 million of whom are refugees. Half of those refugees are ch

    People couldn’t wait to get their hands on the iPhone 7 just to scratch it, drop it, and attempt to bend it. Sounds like the perfect thing to do with a new phone! On the channel JerryRigEverything, the team tested the new iPhone for scratch and bend resistance. The back of the phone, the screen, the home button, and camera lens resisted scratches from both coins and keys. Great!
