President Trump 'reclassifying' marijuana could entirely change America's relationship with cannabis

Despite its recent increase in use, marijuana is classified in the United States as a Schedule I drug, putting it on par with heroin and LSD as a substance with "no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse," according to the Drug Enforcement Administration. This classification has created limitations not only on access to marijuana and marijuana-derived products, whether used medicinally or recreationally, but has done so since the Nixon administration.

However, a proposed executive order from President Donald Trump could change that and spur more thorough research into what cannabis can offer, with or without its psychoactive ingredients.

People now say that secondhand gifts are classier than those that are brand new

The economy is such that many this holiday season are spending less on presents for their loved ones. This has caused an upswing in people choosing to go to secondhand stores and thrift shops to buy Christmas gifts. One would think that giving someone else a “used” gift would be seen as a pretty thoughtless purchase, but new research says secondhand gifts are more thoughtful than previously perceived, whether it's for the holidays or not.

Research from a study conducted by the University of Eastern Finland found that most secondhand gifts are purchased with more thoughtfulness and intention than newer, more impulsive purchases. They also found that, aside from the better prices, the rise in thrifting for gifts is also due to people valuing the environment and wishing to support small businesses. In these less-popular places, many are finding unique treasures they couldn't find anywhere else.

Career strategist says if your boss says any of these 3 things, you should quit your job

Working is hard enough on its own. Deadlines, quotas, group projects, assignments, making that delivery on time, cooking a meal to perfection, and so much more can be on your shoulders depending on what you do for a living. No one needs a boss who makes your job more difficult or, worse, toxic. Many great workers are taken advantage of due to mistaking the need to improve their work ethic with being in a toxic work environment. Luckily, a career strategist knows what a toxic boss is (and isn't), and what they say that should clue you in on whether or not you should tough it out or move on.

Jennifer Brick, a former corporate climber turned career coach, shared the three sentences that only a toxic boss says.

Blind patient regains sight after receiving breakthrough 3D-printed cornea implant

For those who need a corneal transplant to regain their sight after an eye injury or a disease, the wait often depends on donor availability, which can vary based on where the patient lives and how many healthy donors are available. However, an experiment in 3D-printing technology has made cornea implants readily available for those who need them.

North Carolina bio-tissue engineering company Precise Bio made history by creating the first 3D-printed cornea implant made from human eye cells grown in a lab rather than from donated tissue.

Her manager forced her to work on her day off, and it accidentally made her a millionaire

For most people, getting called into work on a holiday is a nightmare. For Rebeca Gonzalez, it turned out to be a million-dollar blessing in disguise.

On Labor Day, Gonzalez, an employee at a Walmart in Los Angeles, had zero intention of working. She had plans to spend the holiday relaxing and barbecuing with her family. However, her phone rang with a request from her manager: the store was short-staffed, and they needed her for just three hours.

Young pianist can't hold back the tears as she plays 200-year-old Chopin piece from the heart

What is it about a great piece of music that stirs the heart and soul? Maybe the best answer to that question lies in witnessing a young artist emotionally connect and resonate with a masterpiece.

Every five years since 1955, the International Fryderyk Chopin Institute holds one of the world's most prestigious classical music competitions. While performing Chopin's "Raindrop" prelude, 24-year-old pianist Yumeka Nakagawa lost herself in the music, and the emotional result is awe-inspiring.

Productivity experts say the easiest way to build positive habits is by adding them to ones you already have

Forming good habits can be just as difficult as breaking bad ones. You know something is good for your health, your mind, or simply makes life easier, yet it's hard to keep the momentum going, or you just keep forgetting. While it can be frustrating, productivity experts and self-help professionals have found a method that can help you stick to a new good habit: stack it onto one you already have.

Life coach and habit builder Shelby Sacco quickly breaks down a simple technique to develop, retain, and maintain good habits dubbed "habit stacking" on her social media. Habit stacking is a technique popularized by author James Clear but founded by behavioral experts BJ Fogg and S.J. Scott that involves taking the habit that you wish to adopt and including it to your established routine. By combining what you have to do with what you get to do, your brain begins to associate the new habit with the one you already have baked in, essentially combining them into a single habit.

A retired security guard found a $24 million lottery ticket in his closet two days before it expired

Procrastination usually has a cost, but for Jimmie Smith, a retired security guard from New Jersey, it almost cost him $24 million.

Smith, 68, had been buying lottery tickets in New York and New Jersey since the 1960s. However, he wasn't exactly diligent about checking them. Instead, he treated them like collectibles, stuffing them into the pockets of his shirts and stacking them in his closet, always telling himself he would "check them when I have the time."
