Corporations can now find out exactly how you think
through the science of neuromarketing. Advertisers
are currently collaborating with scientists to test their
products directly on our brains. Some experts believe
that one in ten TV commercials have already been
designed using neuromarketing.
The reasons are obvious. The technique allows companies to discover exactly what people like about their
products. For example, when we eat a type of potato
chip, it may be the color, the flavor, or the pleasant
noise it makes when you crunch it in your mouth that
we like most.
In order to tap into what’s going on in consumers’
brains, it all begins in laboratories and office buildings.
Groups of volunteers submit themselves to a simple
process. Wearing a special headset called an electrode cap, they watch commercials or test products. The
caps allow researchers to monitor brain activity. When
something attracts the attention of the volunteers,
this is highlighted on a computer.
They literally use this device to read the minds of their
volunteers. This may sound a little scary, but advertisers are just tapping into our existing thoughts and
desires. And that’s what advertisers have always tried
to do.
Previously, companies would give people a survey or
questionnaire to complete in order to research their
customers. The problem was that people didn’t always
tell the truth. They may not want to be critical of a
product or advertisement because they don’t want to
upset the interviewer. The electrode cap overcomes
this problem. It shows when someone really is interested in something.
Neuromarketing is also used to develop packaging
for the world’s most famous brands. The aim is to
make their products stand out in a busy marketplace.
This will become standard as more companies capitalize on the technology. With millions invested in
advertising, companies simply cannot afford to hope
that their ads and products will be a success. If they
can find out what we think first, and change their
products to make them more successful, they will
quickly pay off the high cost of neuromarketing and
dominate their market.

“Eldorado
Gaily bedight,
A gallant knight,
In sunshine and in shadow,
Had journeyed long,
Singing a song,
In search of Eldorado.
But he grew old—
This knight so bold—
And o’er his heart a shadow—
Fell as he found
No spot of ground
That looked like Eldorado.
And, as his strength
Failed him at length,
He met a pilgrim shadow—
‘Shadow,’ said he,
‘Where can it be—
This land of Eldorado?’
‘Over the Mountains
Of the Moon,
Down the Valley of the Shadow,
Ride, boldly ride,’
The shade replied,—
‘If you seek for Eldorado!”
― Edgar Allen Poe, The Complete Stories and Poems
What does the expression “o’er” stand for in the line “And o'er his heart a shadow”?

How Scammers Exploit Variations of Your Logins
The first you know about it is when a scammer accesses one of your accounts. You've been careful with your details, but you've made a
mistake: recycling part of your password. Reusing the same word, even if altered with numbers or symbols, gives criminals an open
door.
An ethical “white hat” hacker named Brandyn Murtagh says information obtained through data breaches on sites such as DropBox and
Tumblr and through cyber-attacks has been circulating on the internet for some time. Using this info, criminals try to log into other
websites using the exact hacked passwords—a practice called credential stuffing. But in some cases they do not just try the exact
passwords from the hacked data: as well as credential stuffing, the fraudsters also attempt to access accounts with derivations of the
hacked password. For example, if your password was “Guardian,” they might automatically try “Guardian1” or “Guardian!”.
According to Virgin Media O2, four out of five people use the same or similar passwords, making this a major vulnerability.
What the scam looks like. The criminals use scripts – automated sets of instructions for the computer – to go through variations of the
passwords in an attempt to access other accounts. This can happen on an industrial scale, says Murtagh. “It's very rare that you are
targeted as an individual – you are [usually] in a group of thousands of people that are getting targeted. These processes scale just like
they would in business,” he says. You might be alerted by messages saying that you have been trying to change your email address or
other details connected to an account.
To protect yourself, Murtagh recommends three key steps:
1. Change variations: Immediately change any passwords that use the same root word, starting with your most important
accounts: banking, email, work, and mobile.
2. Use password managers: These tools, often built into web browsers, can suggest and save complex, unique passwords.
3. Enable 2FA/MFA: Two- or multi-factor authentication adds a second login step, making it much harder for a scammer to get
in.

Urbanization and Its Challenges
In the last century, urbanization has accelerated at an unprecedented pace. Cities around the world have grown rapidly, attracting people from rural areas seeking better opportunities. While urban centers provide access to jobs, education, and healthcare, they also present significant challenges. Overcrowding, gridlock, pollution, and insufficient housing are common problems. Moreover, social inequality is often more visible in urban areas, where wealthy neighborhoods exist alongside impoverished communities. Urban planners argue that sustainable development, public transportation, and inclusive policies are essential to create cities that can support both economic growth and quality of life.

Humanoid Robots in Hotels Stir Curiosity and
Concern as Global Use Expands
Hotels around the world are increasingly embracing
humanoid robots at check-in desks, lobby information
points, and even for room service, but the trend is raising
eyebrows among guests, researchers and hoteliers alike.
Last week, a viral TikTok video fromTokyo's Henn-na
Hotel showed a startled guest stepping back from a
humanoid check-in robot. As the machine offered
instructions, she stammered, "Don't look at me," a
moment that highlights discomfort with robots that
mimic—but fail to fully replicate—human behavior. The
reaction reflects the classic "uncanny valley"
phenomenon, where lifelike machines produce a sense
of unease, rather than delight.
Indeed, Henn-na itself has scaled back on its robot
deployment: it retired more than half of its original roster
of 240 androids by 2019, citing technical glitches and
guest complaints. Still, not all experiences are negative.
A 2023 survey from Boutique Hotelier found 61% of
travelers had favorable reactions to service robots, even
if nearly 29% admitted to feeling afraid to approach one.
Investment in hospitality robotics continues to escalate.
The global market, valued at approximately $567 million
in 2023, is projected to reach $2.2 billion by 2030, with a
CAGR near 21.5%. While humanoid receptionists earn
the spotlight, many hotels are quietly deploying delivery,
luggage-handling, cleaning, and disinfection robots to
streamline operations without overshadowing guests.
Major chains have taken note. Marriott and Hilton use
Relay and Savioke robots to deliver amenities to guest
rooms. Aloft and IHG properties in Asia deploy concierge
bots like Connie, powered by IBM Watson. Meanwhile,
Mandarin Oriental Las Vegas introduced a version of
"Pepper" in 2017 as a lobby greeter, but today it fulfills
more of an entertainment role than a functional one.
These varied experiments point to a shifting hospitality
mindset. Robots are increasingly seen not as novelties,
but as efficiency tools. In many properties, housekeeping
tasks are now scheduled via AI-driven work order
platforms, predictive maintenance prevents broken door
locks before guests arrive, and dynamic pricing engines
optimize revenue. Humanoid robots often serve as
marketing headlines, while automation remains the real
operational focus.
Henn-na's evolution encapsulates this balance. Opened
in 2015 in Nagasaki and later franchising globally, the
hotel scaled back after staffing and function issues
became clear. Today, human staff handle most tasks,
with robots reserved for novelty greetings and sample
deliveries in select areas. The hybrid model highlights
that technology is best embraced when it supports—not
replaces—hospitality staff.
Engineers are working to soften the uncanny valley.
SoftBank Robotics' latest machines, for instance, sport
smoother motions, improved speech recognition, and
context-aware gestures. Bt. Robotics, another emerging
player, is working to enhance robots' ability to recognize
individual guests and understand local cultural cues—a
step toward more personalized service.
However, UC Berkeley roboticist Ken Goldberg's old
adage still rings true: people are most comfortable when
robots look and behave like robots. In hospitality, that
means using bots to lift luggage, sanitize rooms, or whisk
away towels, while leaving emotional intelligence to
human staff. Technology can take on repetitive or
hazardous tasks, but empathy and problem-solving
remain firmly in the human domain.
That said, humanoid robots aren't disappearing. High-end
resorts and tech-forward properties continue
experimenting with sophisticated bots as part of their
experience narrative. In South Korea, luxury hotels
feature robot butlers that can draw a bath or set room
ambiance. In China, hotel robots perform room service
duties while broadcasting real-time translation for foreign
guests.
The challenge for the industry lies in aligning form with
function. A futuristic check-in robot may attract press, but
if it breaks down mid-shift or stares blankly at guests, the
novelty becomes irritation. Meanwhile, back-of-house
bots that reliably deliver water bottles—or prevent
maintenance issues—create consistent value that can
actually enhance service quality.
Looking ahead, hoteliers who thoughtfully combine
robotics and human labor with precision and purpose will
lead the field. They will use robots not to replace staff,
but to elevate them—by making service smoother,
freeing human employees to engage deeper with guests,
and resetting expectations of what hospitality can be in
the contactless age.

Education: A Comprehensive Overview
Education encompasses the teaching and acquisition of
knowledge, proper conduct, and technical proficiency. It
emphasizes the development of skills, trades, or professions, along with mental, moral, and aesthetic growth.
Formal education entails structured instruction, teaching, and training delivered by professional educators.
It involves the application of pedagogy and the creation of curricula.
The right to education is a fundamental human right.
Since 1952, Article 2 of the First Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights has mandated all
signatory parties to ensure this right. At the global
level, the United Nations’ International Covenant on
Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights of 1966 guarantees the right to education under Article 13.
Educational systems are established to provide education and training, often targeting children and youth.
A curriculum outlines what students should know,
understand, and be capable of doing after completing their education. The teaching profession facilitates
learning, and a framework of policies, regulations,
examinations, structures, and funding supports educators in delivering high-quality education.
Primary (or elementary) education encompasses the
initial years of formal, structured education. Typically
lasting six or seven years, primary education begins
around the age of 5 or 6, though this timeframe varies among countries. Globally, approximately 70% of
primary-age children are enrolled in primary education, with this figure steadily increasing.
In most contemporary educational systems worldwide,
secondary education covers the subsequent years
of formal education occurring during adolescence. It
marks the transition from compulsory, comprehensive
primary education for minors to optional, selective
tertiary, or higher education (e.g., university, vocational school) for adults.
Higher education, also referred to as tertiary, third
stage, or post-secondary education, is the non-compulsory educational level following the completion
of secondary schooling, such as high school or secondary school. Tertiary education typically includes
undergraduate and postgraduate programs, as well
as vocational education and training. Colleges and
universities serve as the primary institutions offering tertiary education and are collectively known as
tertiary institutions. Completion of tertiary education
often leads to the attainment of certificates, diplomas,
or academic degrees.

Since 1952, Article 2 of the First Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights has mandated all
signatory parties to ensure this right. At the global
level, the United Nations’ International Covenant on
Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights of 1966 guarantees the right to education under Article 13.
Educational systems are established to provide education and training, often targeting children and youth.
A curriculum outlines what students should know,
understand, and be capable of doing after completing their education. The teaching profession facilitates
learning, and a framework of policies, regulations,
examinations, structures, and funding supports educators in delivering high-quality education.
Primary (or elementary) education encompasses the
initial years of formal, structured education. Typically
lasting six or seven years, primary education begins
around the age of 5 or 6, though this timeframe varies among countries. Globally, approximately 70% of
primary-age children are enrolled in primary education, with this figure steadily increasing.
In most contemporary educational systems worldwide,
secondary education covers the subsequent years
of formal education occurring during adolescence. It
marks the transition from compulsory, comprehensive
primary education for minors to optional, selective
tertiary, or higher education (e.g., university, vocational school) for adults.
Higher education, also referred to as tertiary, third
stage, or post-secondary education, is the non-compulsory educational level following the completion
of secondary schooling, such as high school or secondary school. Tertiary education typically includes
undergraduate and postgraduate programs, as well
as vocational education and training. Colleges and
universities serve as the primary institutions offering tertiary education and are collectively known as
tertiary institutions. Completion of tertiary education
often leads to the attainment of certificates, diplomas,
or academic degrees.
