Did you know that bees can recognize human faces? How do you think this might impact the way we view these tiny insects?

Isabella Albuquerque @bellaisa (17) 17 Nov

I recently learned that bees have the ability to recognize and remember human faces, which completely surprised me! It’s amazing to think that these tiny creatures, who we usually just associate with buzzing around and making...

Y know who has blue blood? It's not royalty—it's shrimp!

Isabella Albuquerque @bellaisa (17) 17 Nov

I recently found out that shrimp have blue blood, and I was totally amazed! It’s all because of hemocyanin, a protein that helps transport oxygen in their bodies, much like hemoglobin does for us, but it’s blue instead of red. I...

Sharon Elton Ugh! You're putting me off Shrimps now! Yes, I did know that about the octopuses and the frogs. I only recently learned about the frog thing though.

If researchers are to be believed, we have at least 4 to 6 dreams everyday. And each one of them lasts at least 5 minutes spanning up to 20 minutes. However 95% of the times, we do not remember what we dreamt, by the time we get...

What would be better 5G or D2D Technology?

Abhijit Bangal @abhi_bangal (5533) • Ahmednagar, India 4 Nov

The Indian government-owned BSNL has found a breakthrough even before the telecom giants like jio and Airtel. Yes, both Jio and Airtel are currently offering 5G services in India. But neither of them have the D2D technology. And...

LindaOH @LindaOHio (178568) • United States 11 Nov

I visited my husband yesterday. He seemed fine and only had a minute of confusion; so it looks like he has sundowners. His care is terrible. He still hasn't had a shower (he's been there 3 weeks); and he was lying on a soiled...

Sharon Elton I'm glad your husband seems fine. That is terrible! You really need to complain about that! It's not good enough. You really need to find him a better place, with better physical therapy.

Do You Like Bread Pudding.

rakski @rakski (122884) • Philippines 11 Nov

The bread I bought is not the usual brand I buy. I bought it because there is no stock of the other brand that we like. But the new bread cannot measure up to the usual one. Hard on the outside, too sweet on the inside. I found...

He’s such a pessimist!

Fleur @Fleura (30379) • United Kingdom 11 Nov

My partner is an irredeemable pessimist. It has taken me years to really realise quite how bad he is, but our latest holiday really illustrated this attribute perfectly! He organised the bookings and had trouble finding any...

I dont think food value of a vegetable can be replaced by a supplement

Dr Souvik Chatterji @sathviksouvik (19469) 11 Nov

Vegetables in India have different food value. Spinach has a lot of vitamins. Bittergourd are very good for people with diabetes. I dont think any supplement in the form of tablets can reproduce the food value of the vegetable....

Sharon Elton Why don't you try and do both? Then if your business takes off and becomes successful, then you can think about quitting your job and concentrating on your business. Think about something that you enjoy doing and do that.
