Can Animals Sense Earthquake Before Humans?

The belief that animals can predict earthquakes has been around for centuries. Catfish moving violently, chickens that stop laying eggs and bees leaving their hive in a panic have been reported. Countless pet owners claimed to have witnessed their cats and dogs acting strangely before the ground shook—barking or whining for no apparent reason, or showing signs of nervousness and restlessness. 


No scientific study has proven that animals reliably predict natural disasters, but if your beagle starts losing it for no apparent reason, brace yourself. China also has stories of dogs showing signs of distress before seismic activity. Although dogs are very much aware of their surroundings, some scientists argue that wild and domestic creatures feel the Earth vibrate before humans. Other ideas suggest they detect electrical changes in the air or gas released from the Earth. Either way, if a dog in an earthquake prone area begins to act odd… maybe a spontaneous road trip is in order. But there’s nothing supernatural or sixth sense about it. Seismologists think animals sense an electrical signal generated by the movement of underground rocks before an earthquake. Or they might sense early but weak shocks that humans can’t feel.

Watch Inside The Earth: Why The Nepal Earthquake Occurred?

The recent earthquake in Nepal was about magnitude 7.8 which is similar to having 20 thermonuclear hydrogen bombs – each many times greater than the atomic bomb that devastated Hiroshima – ripping through the Kathmandu Valley.

Before we proceed further on the cause it is important to understand what is going on inside the earth crust which is causing the movement. You might not know but earth is constantly changing and all the continents are moving. This happens because of the tectonic plates below them. Have a look on the following video to understand this properly.

 
 
The India tectonic plate moving north at about 45mm a year is pushing under the Eurasian plate beneath the Himalayas. Two tectonic plates meet beneath the Himalayas along a fault line. The India plate is moving north at around 45mm a year and pushing under the Eurasian plate. Over time that is how the Himalayas were created. Dr Brian Baptie, head of seismology at the British Geological Survey in Edinburgh, explains the potential after-effects of the quake. Saturday’s catastrophic earthquake in Nepal occurred because of two converging tectonic plates: the India plate and the overriding Eurasia plate to the north, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
 

Is Kejriwal fooling Delhiites in the name of power subsidy? Read what this man said!

A 50% cut in the power tariff up to 400 units was one of the many things that the Aam Aadmi’s Chief Minister promised. But what matters to people is not just making promises, but also fulfilling them.

 
One Raj Kumar Suneja accused Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of not keeping up to his power promises. He posted his June 2015 electricity bill on Facebook, showing a full amount of Rs 2480 was charged from him, despite the usage of 393 units of electricity in one month.


 
Suneja called the Delhi government to be a government of loot and lies in his Facebook post. He posted, ‘According to Kejriwal’s announcement, there should be a 50% cut in the power tariff if the electricity used in one month is up to 400 units. According to the reading in this bill, the total units used are 419 units. But 419 units were used in 32 days, and only 393 units were used in 30 days. Therefore, I should have got a 50% cut in the tariff, which means a discount of Rs 1200. But I have been charged the full amount.’

It might be recalled that within eleven days after forming the Delhi government, Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal delivered on its big-ticket election promises – cheaper power and water. Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia had announced 20000 litres of free water for every household and a 50% discount on electricity bills for the families who use less than 400 units.
So, what is it, Mr Kejriwal? Is AAP in another crisis?

MUST WATCH: How technology has changed our life in last 4 years!!

Yes, social media is a good way to stay in touch with people. Yes, it helps you to stay connected. But have you ever felt that the same social media is also leaving you alienated from each other. What is the meaning of spending time together? Nowadays, spending time together means taking a vacation and spending the time uploading statuses and pictures on Facebook. A video by Hayot Films shows how people have become slaves of social media these days. It shows how people are more concerned about what’s happening in other people’s lives rather than their family. Watch the video and ask yourself, ‘do we really need to be online all the time’?


BEWARE! You might feature on a porn site if you are using Dubsmash!

We all know what Dubsmash is! Right? But do you know that featuring in a Dubsmash video might land you on a porn site? Well, apparently yes! As any other video application, Dubsmash has its own share of danger.
A report published in Hindustan Times claims that many Dubsmash videos – mostly featuring girls – are being uploaded on porn sites after suppressing their original audio and adding something else. A video is being circulated on WhatsApp showing a woman ‘talking dirty’ and making ‘loud sex noises’ just like in a pornographic movie.


But the reality was that the woman actually featured in an original video on Facebook in a Dubsmash of a famous Tamil dialogue.
Here’s how it was done:
Dubsmash videos can be downloaded just like any other video. There are numerous software which allows you to suppress the original audio and add you own. These software are used to fit popular movie dialogues into a particular scenario.
The same technique is being used to replace the movie dialogues from Dubsmash with ‘dirty talks’.

According to media reports, a popular Tamil FM radio warned people on its Facebook page that many women are receiving their altered video on WhatsApp and are being blackmailed.
Be aware and prevent yourself from becoming the next victim!
