My name is Mary. This is quite a popular girla name in many countries. So, since childhood I've rarely been surprised to meet my namesake in daily life. But movies were a different matter! However, after hundred of watched movies and TV series I assumed that most of the characters had pretty ordinary names as well. James Bond, Jeff Lebowski and Sarah Connor hardly could impress anybody with their first names. Does it mean that common for real life names are popular in the cinema world as well? To find out the answer, I took 50 most popular female and male US names for each decade since 1960 and compared their frequency in real life with popularity in movies & TV shows released in the same years.

Let's say you have a spreadsheet of thousands of source names with their phone number, email address, home address, and comments/notes. Depending on how large your list is, manually sorting through that list could get tedious and inefficient. Alternatively, you could set up VLOOKUP formulas to have your source's information pop up by simply typing in the source's name as your lookup value[M1] .

In August 2016, the Australian government released an "anonymised" data set comprising the medical billing records, including every prescription and surgery, of 2.9 million people. Names and other identifying features were removed from the records in an effort to protect individuals' privacy, but a research team from the University of Melbourne soon discovered that it was simple to re-identify people, and learn about their entire medical history without their consent, by comparing the dataset to other publicly available information, such as reports of celebrities having babies or athletes having surgeries.

or those of us who can't stand the thought of creepy crawlies or who jump at the sight of a shadow in the ocean, summer in Australia can be a challenging time. Deadly snakes, sharks and spiders - you name it, we've got it. But just how deadly are these creatures and how disproportionate is our fear of them? To find out we compiled a list of deaths commonly associated with summer.

Until the first Abbott-Hockey budget in 2014, a statement of budget measures that disproportionately affect women was published at budget time. At times given different names, the first was delivered with the Hawke government's 1984 budget. In its foreword, then Prime Minister Hawke promised that "within the overall economic objectives of the government" important budget decisions would from then on be made "with full knowledge of their impact on women". These women's budget statements shed light on the impact of decisions that might have been thought to have little to do with gender, such as the Hawke government's reduction of tariffs on imports of clothing, textiles and footwear. The statement pointed out that two-thirds of the workers in these industries were women and that without special support for retraining (which was given) they would be disproportionately disadvantaged. Increasingly, and especially during the Rudd and Gillard governments, the statements made visible the economic impact of women's greater responsibility for unpaid care work.
