The 9 Best Countries For Women To Work.

InterNations is one of the biggest communities for expats worldwide. Founded in 2007 by three expat Germans, it quickly grew, and now unites more than one million expats in many countries around the world. It is as an expat community where you can exchange ideas, experiences and get a helping hand, if you have problems adopting to your new cultural environment. The platform is built with a newsfeed called the “Wire”, that keeps you in the loop of new forum posts or discussions as well as events in your area. You’ll also see when new members sign up in your area. The nice thing is, that you see their picture, real name and 2 flags with their profile pictures: One flag is their nationality and the other is what country they currently live in. InterNations conduct surveys from time-to-time with its expat membership. In this recent survey to celebrate Women’s Day, it lists 9 top cities where expat women would feel most at ease working in. About 6,000 women gave their views and rated the place they live and work as expats

ASTRONOMY PICTURE OF THE DAY: Dragon Aurora over Iceland. Image Credit & Copyright: Jingyi Zhang & Wang Zheng. A huge dragon-shaped aurora developed in the sky over Iceland earlier this month. The aurora was caused by a hole in the Sun’s corona that expelled charged particles into a solar wind that followed a changing interplanetary magnetic field to Earth’s magnetosphere. As some of those particles then struck Earth’s atmosphere, they excited atoms which subsequently emitted light: aurora. No sunspots have appeared on the Sun so far in February, making the multiple days of picturesque auroral activity this month somewhat surprising.

WORK OF ART: Studies of the Foetus in the Womb are two-coloured annotated sketches by Leonardo da Vinci made in around 1511. Da Vinci studied human embryology with the help of anatomist Marcantonio della Torre and saw the foetus within a cadaver. The studies were initially bequeathed to Francesco Melzi. In c. 1582–90 they were bought from his heirs by Pompeo Leoni, and by 1630 they belonged to Thomas Howard, 2nd Earl of Arundel. Since 1690 the studies have been housed in the Royal Collection, United Kingdom.
