8 Amazing Animal's Sleep Facts

1. Dolphins can sleep with one-half of their brain active.Do you understand what does that mean...They can remain alert while sleeping. They can have the brain waves of non-REM sleep functioning in just one hemisphere while the other half remains awake.Whales also can do the same.And Dolphin also holds the title of the most smart fish ever known.

2. Horses and Cows can sleep while standing.I think its very troublesome for all other animals but horses and cows can't dream while sleep standing.They can only dream when they lie down to sleep.

3. Ants never ever sleep.Well there are some studies going on and the previous studies showed us that they actually have a 1 minute nap but still there are no conformations whether it is sleep or sonething else.

4. A desert snail can snooze for 3 years.Well thats may be not interesting as bettles can snooze for futher more years and polar bears which have comparitively very large size sleep for half an year.Facts are the facts.

5. Bats always sleep upside-down.Ever wonder why do they do so..??Well actually there are plenty of reasons behind this.First of all, they don't appear to be a prey for their hunters.(a creature with legs up and head down can't even be imagined by an animal).Secondly, it helps them taking off because bat wings don't possess much power to take off directly from standing position like birds.They fall and then fly.

6. An albatross can sleep while flying.Its very interesting though.Think if human can do their must-done work while sleeping.That would have been amazing.

7.Giraffes can go weeks without sleeping.Seems Girrafes have got more than their high legs.

8. While asleep, platypuses make the same movements that they use when killing crustacean prey.

Thats all for sleeping.I hope you enjoyed and got amazed on the facts about the lovely creatures.

Happy Reading....

Cordova viewport problem solved

Include the viewport settings in Cordova If you are facing the auto zooming problem of cordova then go read on the full article. Cordova actually ignores the viewport meta tag which causes the pixel density problem. So we need to tell cordova that viewport tag is equally important as other tags. To do this, we need to add some code to a file which is specify in the article. Corodva messes with pixels If you are using the latest cordova version or creating the cordova app for latest android versions then you may have faced the zoom malfunctioning.I also faced it when creating an app. Many of you may have already searched the web and found the answer of changing the meta tag attributes to get it working. But adding target-densitydpi=medium-dpi does not solve the problem for latest android versions. It may work for gingerbread but not for kitkat and others. So the final solution which i found was one of the stackexchange answer but rarely found. So i am gonna two things here, i ...

Image Search Engine Using Python

Images provide a lot more information than audio or text. Image processing is the prime field of research for robotics as well as search engines. In this article we will explore the concept of finding similarity between digital images using python. Then we will use our program to find top 10 search results inside a dataset of images for a given picture. It won't be as good as google's search engine because of the technique we will be using to find similarity between images. But what we are going to make will be pretty cool. So lets start. Setting up the Environment Our Algorithm How the code looks Lets build the GUI Additional Techniques Setting up the Environment The code we are going to write requires a few tools which we need to install first. I will try to be as precise as i can and if you get stuck into installing some tool then you can drop a comment below and i will help you sort out the problem. So here are the tools and the steps to install ...

Authentication System : Basic Design

Being a system administrator, it is our main concern to protect users' data from theft and corruption. Regarding theft, we focus in building a sophisticated but secure authentication system which can fulfill all the basic needs we discussed in the last article . In the previous 2 articles, we learned about authentication and authorization. Also we understood the complications in building a secure system which can prevent tresspassing. But we have not code anything yet to build something. So in this article we will be designing an authentication system which will provide the functionalities we want and which will help us understand how the tech giants like google have taken security to another level. We will be writing code in php but the same applies to other languages also. What we'll be using Blueprint Building the system Running the system Additional Care What we'll be using Lets see what are the languages we will be using and database plus som...
