It’s (Supposedly) Over! Chicken Are Older than Eggs!

According to a recent research, the chicken came before the egg. This statement is supported by the results of the research. In order to have an eggshell, there is an absolute need of the protein named ovocleidin-17. It is an element found in the animal’s ovaries and without it there is no possible way to create an egg. The production of this protein is crucial to the creation of chick and their preservation before hatching. Thus, it is highly improbable to have an egg without a hen. Generally speaking, we still don’t know how a chicken could come out of somewhere else but an egg, so the eternal question still remains alive…

At least we now have some kind of an argument for one of the two points of view.
However, eggs have existed long before the hen and rooster. Reptiles such as dinosaurs even could be distant relatives, ancient forefathers of the current chicken, but we can’t be certain. For all the good reasons, the dilemma will live on, at least one more year.

Australians used to name their hurricanes after politicians they disliked

This tradition is said to have been started by a meteorologist by the name of Clement Wragge, who is often considered to be the father of modern meteorology. „Inclement“ Wragge, as he was often called, was the first person to do real weather forecasting „down under“. He was very outspoken and expressed his disapproval for certain politicians by naming tropical cyclones after them in his forecasts! This also marks the first time that names were used to classify weather systems.

Starting in 1953, the United States began naming tropical storms, which initially were all named after women. They later caved into pressure from feminists groups in 1979 to use men’s names as well. Currently, the duty of naming hurricanes and tropical storms is given to the World Meteorological Organization, an agency of the United Nations. The current system uses an alphabetical list. There is a storm name chosen for each letter of the alphabet, and as hurricane season progresses they go from an „A“ name to a „B“ name and so on. The WMO has 4 lists and reuses a list of names every 4 years. The more famous storm names are retired from their respective lists (thus, there was no „Tropical Storm Katrina“ in 2009).

The technical term for the pins and needles feeling you get when part of your body „falls asleep“ is ‘paresthesia’

This word comes from the base words ‘para’, which means “altered” or “abnormal”, and ‘aisthesis’, meaning “perception”. Most people are familiar with this sensation – it commonly occurs when a person has slept on their arm or left their legs crossed for too long. The feeling is caused by sustained pressure on a nerve. Paresthesia is typically fleeting, but if it lasts a long time or occurs frequently a medical condition is likely to blame. Chronic paresthesia can be caused by a neurological disease or traumatic nerve damage.

Top 10 Brain-Damaging Habits 

We have such a lot of mannerisms and habits. we often think that doing them makes us feel relaxed. However, what we have a tendency to don’t recognize is that these habits may cause internal destruction like brain damage.

1.Skipping Breakfast or No Breakfast at all.

People who don't take breakfast usually got a lower blood sugar level. That’s bad. It ends up in an insufficient of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts

Thinking is that the best way to train our brain. having sensible conversations or writing some essays is extremely healthy. Talking non-sense things is certainly not.it is best to invariably have brain stimulating thoughts to avoid brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely

There’s nothing unhealthy in being talkative,it is actually healthy.Intellectual conversations promote the potency of the brain.

Chinese Birth Policy Leaves Thousands of Children on the Street

The infamous One-Child Policy of People’s Republic of China has brought not only negatives from the other countries, but also many issues inside the borders of the Asian state itself. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this policy: it is a law that puts a tax on every new child after a first son. In some cities, when a girl is born, the family can have a boy afterwards without paying, but there are also places that tax as much as over 10,000 dollars for the second child.Due to this extremity, the local authorities have incredible issues with handling the c.a. 70,000 children that are abducted from the streets or their homes… or maybe given away. Females have abortions when they don’t have the funds or possibility to pay the tax, no matter if they would be a good parent.

Bizarre facts-Man conducts 20000 Volt current

Human conductor Slavisa Pajkic has scientists scratching their heads because he can withstand high voltages without feeling a thing. Known as 'Battery Man', the machinist claims he can act as an insulator, conductor and even a heater.

Videos on the internet show the 54-year-old powering up a lightbulb and cooking sausages by using energy stored in his body. Slavisa, from Pozarevac, Serbia, says he discovered his amazing talent when he was a teenager. He said: 'I was 17 years old when accidentally during work, I felt that electricity can not do anything. The rain was falling, and my colleagues made a metal fence."
The fence somehow became live, and it was then his new life began.

'My friend, who was leaning against the fence, said he could feel electricity but as I approached and touched the wet spot, I felt nothing. 'I was open-mouthed, but then I realized that current could not harm my body.

'When there is a sudden power failure, my folks do not have to worry. My house is always shining. I can be an insulator, conductor, accumulator and heater.

'People have seen me on television so they are glad to meet me but afraid to shake hands.'


Hot dog: Slavisa cooks a sausage by passing an electric current through it from power stored in his body. He holds two Guinness World Records, for withstanding 20,000V and being the quickest to heat up a cup of water to 97C, in 1 min 37 secs.

Bizarre events-The death of Brandon Lee

Bizarre events-The death of Brandon Lee

In 1993, Brandon Lee lost his life in the course of plying his trade, when reality and artifice traded places. On the film set of The Crow, Brandon Lee, son of famous martial artist and actor Bruce Lee, was himself killed whilst attempting to film his character’s death scene. Weeks before the accident the crew had been filming a scene in which a hand gun was shown being loaded. They used cartridges with just a bullet and a primer, however, when, off stage, somebody messing with the prop squeezed the trigger, the primer exerted enough force to move the cartridge into the barrel of the gun, where, unknown to anyone, it remained lodged. 

When the time came to film the scene in which Lee’s character is shot, the same gun was loaded again with a blank cartridge, this time containing a propellant and a primer, in order to give the visual effect of gunfire. Nobody checked the barrel and, when the gun was fired, the explosion from the newly inserted blank sent the cartridge lodged in the barrel into Lee’s abdomen, killing him. To this day even the most dedicated method actors avoid working with that particular crew.

Amazing facts-Treasure worth billions found in Indian temple

Amazing facts-Treasure worth billions found in Indian temple

A treasure trove of gold and silver jewelry, coins and precious stones said to be worth billions of dollars has been found in a Hindu temple in southern India.The valuables have an estimated preliminary worth of over 500 billion rupees ($11.2 billion), said Kerala Chief Secretary K. Jayakumar, catapulting the temple into the league of India's richest temples.

The thousands of necklaces, coins and precious stones have been kept in at least five underground vaults at the Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple which is renowned for its intricate sculptures.

The temple, dedicated to Hindu lord Vishnu, was built hundreds of years ago by the king of Travancore and donations by devotees have been kept in the temple's vaults since. A necklace found was 18 feet (six metres) long. Thousands of gold coins have also been found. Since India achieved independence from Britain in 1947, a trust managed by descendants of the Travancore royal family has controlled the temple. But India's Supreme Court recently ordered that the temple be managed by the state to ensure the security of valuables at the shrine.

Amazing facts-Girl trains Cow as a Show Horse

Amazing facts-Girl trains Cow as a Show Horse

Regina Mayer, a 15-year-old girl from Laufen, Southern Germany, rides her pet cow Luna as if she were a well-trained show horse.

The young girl always wanted her own horse, but her parents kept saying “no”, and since she had a stable full of cows at her disposal, Regina decided she was going to try and ride one. After hundreds of hours of training and many baskets of treats, she managed to teach Luna to jump over home-made hurdles, just like a show horse.

Regina remembers that she knew Luna was special ever since she was born, three years ago. The calf came right up to her, she wasn’t shy like most other young cattle, and they developed a special friendship ever since. The 15-year-old began riding Luna about six months ago and she even contacted a riding school in Switzerland, and received some tips on how to train and equip the bovine in a way similar to a show horse. The two went for long rides around the countryside of Southern Germany and Luna become more and more comfortable, especially since her friend Regina made sure to give her delicious carrots during each outing.

Young Regina Mayer says Luna is definitely very clever, she knows what she can do and what she can’t. Right now she’s able to jump over a-meter-high hurdles, but the rider is confident this year they will reach 1.20 meters. She admits people always look at her funny when they see her riding a cow, but she wouldn’t dream of trading Luna for a horse. The trained cow has become her best friend, following her around wherever she goes, something a horse would never do.

Although There Are Places on Earth that Get No Sun for Weeks, Uranus’ Nights Last for 42 Years!

The planet of Uranus takes about 84 Earth years to travel its entire route around the Sun. This means that every season takes a fourth of that time. 21 years is what each winter, summer, autumn and spring would last if they were called like we know them. The most awful thing, though, is that alongside this time lapse between the autumn and spring, there is also the titled position of the planet that prolongs the cold days for some regions.
Just like our North and South Pole are able to stay in the dark (without sunlight) for a few weeks due to the soft tilt in our axis, Uranus is almost perpendicular to the Sun. This is why, in addition to the 21 days of winter, the farthest zones from the sun also another 21 years of night, equal to a total of 42 years of darkness.
