Continental Drift

Well , It was found out that the continents used to stick together ( look photo ) and that they are seperating more and more. They are moving a few inches a day. This may not seem mutch but if you take that they move around 3 or 2  inches a day and you would take 3 years they would have moved 2190 inches or 2.19 metres in only 3 year. I think this is quite a lot. But yeah again , this is nature...

Think about your pockets when you leave!

Why do people steal?

Reasons why many people steal , according to Ariely’s and colleagues’ research include a culture that condones cheating/stealing, a personal history of dishonest behavior, stealing to benefit others [another form of rationalization], and a lack of supervision or control (“if they don’t even care enough to lock their bike, then it’s ok to steal it”).

How you mooing bro?

  How is this possible?

Well , let's take humanity for an example. We have around 6800 languages that people still speak today. Beside that we have around 41.000 dead languages or dialects. If we know that the human population came from one place on Earth why isn't everyone talking the same language? Let's say that you speak Dutch and for some reason your grandfather speaks German. This can be because your mom or dad learned German from your grandfather but because he can't quite articulate and he has own words for some things ( what we call a dialect). But now your mother/father thinks that this language is German and they pass it the way they learned it from their dad. But because you are lazy and your mom isn't articulating well you start changing the pronunciation of many words. The further you go , like for example if you have kids , the more the language changes. But if we look at the origin we can see that many languages are related if we look at the words. (Duth-German , Italian - Spanish). Now back to our cows! For cows this can be the same. If you have three farms that have quite a distance between each other and the first farm starts mooing for danger , the second farm hears this but with a slight difference because there is a distance between them. They copy their mooing and pass it on to the third farm. If you then look on big scale you will get countries (and even states) with cows that have different mooing. Nature is beautiful right? See you tomorrow!
