If You Have Hiccups, Stick Your Tongue Out Hard!



There’s nothing more aggravating than getting repeatedly interrupted by yourself in the middle of a conversation. And those hiccups are hard to hide, and never seem to go away – just super awkward and uncomfortable in any social situation! Is there anything we can do besides just wait for the hiccups to release their grip?? Hiccups start in your diaphragm. If it gets irritated, it’ll spasm, causing you to unexpectedly suck in air. Luckily, there are some natural remedies you can use to kick those annoying hiccups to the curb, and some will even work in a pinch! Other videos you might like:

-Guzzle down a cold glass of water as quickly as you can. The cold water will shock the system and “distract” it from the hiccups.
-Inhale deeply, and hold your breath for as long as you can.
-Get a teaspoon of white or brown sugar and hold it in your mouth for about five seconds.
-Swallow ½ a teaspoon of white, malt, or apple cider vinegar. Wash it down with a glass of water.
-Put one teaspoon of peanut butter in your mouth and hold it there. After a few seconds, swallow it. -The sourness will make you want to swallow lemon juice hard and quickly, and this will interrupt and stop your hiccups.
-Chamomile will relax the diaphragm and stop the spasms that are causing your hiccups.
-This interrupts your normal breathing pattern, so it should interrupt your hiccups too.
-When you anticipate the next round of hiccups, cough or make yourself burp.
-As soon as you feel the need to swallow, do so, but make sure to keep your mouth open.
-When you get startled and jump, the release of adrenaline and your body tensing up both affect the diaphragm.
-Try to quickly swallow three times in between hiccups to restore diaphragm control. -Heat is a good way to relax any muscle, including the diaphragm.
-Essential oils should relax your diaphragm and restore your normal breathing pattern. -Warm milk has a calming effect as good as any essential oil.
-Standing on your head turns the diaphragm upside down, shocking it out of spasms.
-Sticking your tongue out as far as it will possibly go will work a nerve that’s connected to your diaphragm.
-If you’re doing something you enjoy, your diaphragm will relax and stop spasming. -The heat will certainly change up your breathing pattern, and your body will be busy doing some serious temperature control.

How the Earth Once Swallowed Its Ocean



Our planet is about 4.5 billion years old and it has a history of doing shadowy things, such as creating landmasses and then making them disappear. Around 1 billion years ago, a mysterious supercontinent was formed, and it swallowed and flipped the mainland inside out. And that could happen again quite soon in geological time. The historical period when the land connected to become the Rodinia supercontinent and the time frame it split are a big foggy. Geologists believe that roughly every 600 million years we are met with the same fate. Our continents connect to form a huge landmass; our oceans connect to form a super-ocean; and then they split.

The ocean disappears 7:31
The next supercontinent 8:22 #earthhistory #supercontinent #brightside SUMMARY:
-The first supercontinent ever was Nuna. Then, after some more million years, Rodinia. It collected most of the Earth’s landmasses and then split around 750 million years ago.
-The breakup was triggered by a superplume – huge rising jets of hot molten rock in the Earth’s mantle began expanding. That caused enormous volcanic eruptions that were later found in every continent. -The ozone shield started forming a little after the Rodinia continent appeared. Since its appearance, it began absorbing higher levels of radiation from the sun, and that allowed life on land to flourish. -According to one of the papers, the Earth has two alternating cycles. The first one runs for 600 million years and it brings all the landmasses together. The second cycle lasts for double the time – around 1.2 billion years — and a new super ocean is born.
-Subduction zones are the boundaries that mark the collision between tectonic plates. When tectonic plates meet at a subduction zone, one bends and then slides under the other.
-During the introversion method, the oceanic crust dives back into the Earth’s hot mantle. But extroversion is quite different. That method creates a new super ocean and a fresh landmass.
-Both Nuna and Rodinia had the same super-ocean surrounding them. When the Oceanic crust started to subduct, Rodinia began separating and the sea disappeared. Interestingly, that super ocean re-appeared as the Panthalassa in the formation of Pangea. -The future hypothetical supercontinent is given the name of Amasia. Right now, the tectonic plates are moving North, which includes Australia and Africa. It is estimated that in a few hundred million years all the landmasses excluding Antarctica will connect in the North Pole to form the Amasia.

That’s Why Pluto Is Not a Planet Anymore



If you were in elementary school before 2006, there's a good chance you had to memorize the order of the 9 planets in our solar system; Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, URinus—also pronounced UrANUS, and finally Neptune, and Pluto. Now, if you're currently in elementary school, you might be saying, "Wait, there were nine planets?” So, what happened to Pluto? It’s not like it’s gone anywhere. It’s still out there on the edge of the solar system, as cold and far away as ever, so what changed? Other videos you might like:

What happened to Pluto? 0:46
What does the word planet mean? 1:26
How large is Pluto? 3:12
If it has a satellite, is it a planet? 4:03
The discovery of Eris 4:59
What does it take to be a planet now? 5:31
Scientists who believe Pluto is a planet 6:11 #pluto #spacefacts #brightside SUMMARY:
-Pluto hasn't changed, but our understanding of it has. We know way more about space than we did one hundred years ago.
-From the age of Galileo to the nineteenth century, planet referred to any object orbiting the Sun. So astronomers kept finding countless planets. -We know that Pluto is only one 459th the size of planet Earth, making it smaller than the moon and only about twice the size of the former planet Ceres. – Charon may be smaller than Pluto, but not that much smaller. One half the diameter might seem like a big difference, but not compared to the differences in size between the other planets and their moons.
-While Eris is slightly smaller than Pluto, initial measurements placed it as somewhat more massive. This added one more strike against Pluto’s status as a planet.
-First, a planet must orbit the Sun. Number two is that the object must be a sphere, or at least nearly so. Pluto checks the first two boxes but runs into trouble with number three, which says a planet must have "cleared the neighborhood" around it.
-Scientists who disagree with the IAU’s ruling and want to call Pluto a planet once more propose that any object with enough mass to maintain a spherical, or nearly spherical, shape would qualify as a planet.

12 Natural Ways to Get Rid of Cockroaches Permanently



Cockroaches are unsanitary and annoying pests that are unwelcome guests in any home. But the smelly and expensive pesticides out there on the market are just as unpleasant and unsafe! So ditch the toxic chemicals, and try these 100% natural ways to keep roaches out of your house for good! Basic things like garlic, lemons, or vinegar will be your best friends if you want to get rid of those insects. If you try any of these natural remedies over time but it doesn’t seem to make a difference, then it’s probably high-time to call a professional! Other videos you might like:

If none of the above helps … 7:26 #cockroaches #getridofinsects #brightside SUMMARY:
-Infestations usually start in the kitchen, especially in those dark hard-to-clean spaces behind and under cabinets and appliances.
-Try tucking bay leaves or leaving a clump in those hard-to-clean places. This method may take a lot of bay leaves and patience, but it’s a nice natural way to send roaches packing. -You can use garlic- or onion powder, and sprinkle it in and around their favorite hangout spots.
-The lemon juice will effectively repel these pests, and your kitchen will smell amazing too!
-Just fill a medium-sized spray bottle with mostly vinegar, and add enough drops of peppermint essential oil so that you can smell it. Spray your kitchen and bathroom. -Neem oil keeps away a lot of insects and pests because it contains a certain chemical that’s poisonous to them.
-Cockroaches and similar pests breathe through the pores of their shells and skin, so when they start crawling around in this soap, the borax will get the job done. -Put some fresh catnip leaves in a sachet – you know, those little sheer drawstring bags usually used for steeping tea – or other porous bag. Cockroaches can’t stand it. -Once you’ve put the traps together, place them in the spots where you think the roaches are coming from, like nice dark places for them to look for food and water. -The sweet sugary smell attracts roaches, so they eat the powder mixture. Once they take a drink of water, it reacts with the baking soda, and, well, let’s just say the roaches get a bad case of bubble guts.
-Cut a sizable strip of duct tape off the roll, maybe about the length of your forearm. Put the strip sticky-side-up, and fold down each end so that it’s easy to pick up and dispose of later on. You’ll also need a bait.
-The cockroaches will climb in to go after the bait, but they won’t be able to climb back up the slippery surface to escape.
-Roaches are drawn to the smell of coffee too, so they’ll climb in after the grounds but won’t be able to get out since they’re not the greatest of swimmers.
-If you try any of these natural remedies over time but it doesn’t seem to make a difference, then it’s probably high-time to call a professional! Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

That’s How a Snake Gets into Your Bathroom



Bangkok, 2016. A man is going to the bathroom. He is getting ready to relax when all of a sudden, something crawls out of the toilet pipe and bites him. The man keeps his wits about him and calls the rescue service. The intruder is soon pulled out of the toilet, and it turns out to be a 10-foot python! Yes, there was a python in the potty! And this case is not the only one. Rescuers pull out dozens of snakes from toilets around the world every year. And, not only snakes get in there, but also octopuses, rats, frogs, and what not.

Snakes falling from trees 5:13
Rats in the sewer pipes 5:37
Other creatures in the sewers 6:08
What should you do if this happens 7:00 #snakes #survivaltips #brightside SUMMARY:
-Driven by the smell of food, a python doesn't notice that the jungle has ended, and human dwellings are all around. There, the snake gets inside the sewer. -Snakes wander around the sewers for a long time, crawl to the source of air and light, out a long S-shaped pipe and see a human. -There was a case when python knocked out the terrarium's roof glass and escaped. Snakes can escape not only from home terrariums but from zoos too.
-There were cases when snakes fell from tree branches directly onto a house's roof or got into an apartment through air vents.
-Rats get into the sewer on purpose: they know there is a lot of good food in your apartment. Sometimes they even manage to get into the kitchen.
-In some countries, such as Australia, funnel-web spiders can enter the sewers. Frogs can easily end up in your bathroom too. Another animal that could theoretically end up in the sewers is an octopus.
-If this is some small creature, like a rat or frog, then wash it off. Thanks to the fat on their fur, though, rats float in the water easily. Also, there are ultrasonic devices that produce a low-frequency sound. People don’t hear it, but it’s making rodents go nuts.

You’re Using GPS More Often Than You Think



It helps you avoid traffic jams and shows you the way in an unfamiliar city. But is that all GPS is good for? Turns out, it’s used for all kinds of stuff, like feeling earthquakes, finding treasures – it can even save you from a rendezvous with a shark! GPS is so efficient and precise that even people far away from the epicenter can be notified and have enough time to get ready for a big quake or evacuate. Wildlife migration tracking is very important in the conservation of endangered species. GPS is perfect for this goal! GPS is used to monitor your vehicle’s location in real time.

-Using advanced GPS receivers, scientists can tell how large and destructive an earthquake will be in a matter of 10 seconds.
-Thanks to GPS receivers, farmers can map their lands and send tractors and other equipment to certain crops for weeding or harvesting.
-Without GPS, robots used in the industrial, agricultural, and mapping spheres wouldn't be able to do their job.
-GPS is a perfect technology for creating high accuracy maps, measuring objects, and monitoring changes. -With time, GPS receivers rise or sink because of magma shifts. If you monitor the changes, you can see where exactly magma is flowing.
-GPS is perfect for wildlife migration tracking because you can get data about the animal's movements remotely through a satellite.
-Geocaching has become a popular hobby since the early 2000s. There are digital treasure maps with clues on where to find caches or trinkets.
-When you attach a tracker to an art piece, thieves will think twice before stealing it.
-Baltimore artist Michael Wallace made his city his canvas. He attached a GPS tracker to his bike, installed mapping software, and moves in intricate patterns creating digital art.
-GPS helps measure the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere that can come out as torrential rains.
-Scientists can learn how much moisture there is in the soil or how much snow there is on the surface using the echoes that bounce off the Earth and go to the GPS receiver.
-There’s hardly enough of the latter in some parts of the world, especially the oceans and polar regions. GPS helps fill that gap.
-Attaching a GPS microchip to your dog or cat's collar can save you a ton of nerves and time in case they chase after something and go missing.
-You can get a tracker in the form of a key chain, pendant, watch, you name it!
-One organization GPS-tagged about 50 sharks living mostly off the East Coast of the US. Once they get too close to the shore, the lifeguards are informed, and they let everyone else know it’s time to get out of the water.
-A GPS tracker can help you locate your suitcase wherever it is.
-GPS is used to monitor your vehicle’s location in real time.
-If you don't want to spend hours looking for that very place using trees or rocks as landmarks, GPS can help.
-Accurate GPS helps guide machines to natural treasures, drill safely, avoid collisions, survey, and manage entire operations.

Why We Use Red Cups at Parties And Blow Candles on Birthdays



I was recently invited to a party. And while I was having fun, I began to think about all the things that make a party a party: Why are all the cups red? And who invented barbecue, dancing, and birthday wishes? It turns out that the first birthday party was in Ancient Egypt in 3000 BCE! Wish-making tradition dates back to Ancient Greece, and in England, coins and jewelry were put into the cake, which was then divided among all the guests. Here’s what else I found out!

-The first birthday party was in Ancient Egypt in 3000 BCE. Only the pharaohs and their heirs were allowed to celebrate them. It was the same in Ancient Rome – only the kings and high-ranking officials got a feast on their special day.
-In Ancient Greece, a special pie was brought to the temple for the birthday of Artemis. The pie itself symbolized the moon, and the candles – the light from it.
-BBQ became popular thanks to George Washington in the 18th century! And he learned to BBQ from African Americans.
-In 1853, chef George Crum brought his signature dish to a rich client – french fries. However, the guest didn't like how thick the potato was cut. So, Chef Crum jokingly decided to cut the potatoes into paper thin slices and then fry them.
-In 1970, the American company "Solo Cup" first released its iconic plastic red cups. They instantly became popular with young people. They are red so that you can easily find your drink on the table – the red color stands out. Second, from a psychological point of view, the red color calls for decisiveness and action.
-Pinata-like rituals have appeared in all corners of the planet. But it's believed that it originated from China, where the ancestors of the pinata were paper lanterns and dragons.
-A very long time ago, people didn’t dance because it was fun, but to conduct pagan rites. They even took dance movements from animals.
-The first fireworks appeared in China and looked like this: a bamboo stick was thrown into the fire, bamboo banged loudly and it was believed that this scared away evil ghosts. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz
