Alappuzha (also known as Alleppey), India - The Backwaters of Kerala are
one of the biggest draws to Kerala, and before going, I had no idea why. After
visiting, I now know that the Backwaters are one of the reasons why Kerala is
known as “God’s Own Country.”
After arriving in Alappuzha (Alleppey), we headed straight to the
house-boat, a luxurious floating house-boat on the Kerala backwaters. The boat
was beautiful with four full bedrooms, a full upper deck with dining room and
viewing platform, and most importantly, a huge kitchen with private chefs to
cook us an Indian seafood Kerala meal of your dreams! #IndianFood #Kerala
#Backwaters
Ebbin had arranged for a huge seafood meal on the boat. As soon as we
started sailing on the Backwaters, the amazing chefs started cooking. There
were over a dozen different dishes, seafood extravaganza. The meal was
absolutely incredible, and the scenery of the water, lakes, rivers, and
lagoons, were spectacular.
For the rest of the afternoon, we relaxed around the boat, and
eventually docked for the evening in a small village. For dinner we had a
simple Kerala meal of rice porridge, with a few different chutneys, and green
gram, mung beans.
Sleeping on the boat was fantastic, so quiet and peaceful, and it was a
joy to wake up in the morning ready to go again. For breakfast, they made one
of the best egg curries I’ve ever had in my life - one of the reasons I love
Kerala so much, curry for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Thank you to Alleppey Houseboat (https://alleppeyhouseboat.in/) for
giving us a great deal on a house-boat, and for the amazing food and service.
An incredible experience, and truly God's Own Country!

Imagine prehistoric creatures, up to 14 feet long, swimming in creeks
and streams along the densely populated East Coast of the U.S. Surprisingly,
such animals still exist, and NOAA and partner scientists are using innovative
techniques to track them through Chesapeake Bay tributaries.
Sturgeon appeared in the fossil record approximately 200 million years
ago, before the evolution of some dinosaurs, including Tyrannosaurus rex.
Atlantic sturgeon, ranging from Canada to Florida, were subjected to a robust
commercial fishery beginning in 1880. The fishery from Maine to Florida
continued through 1998, severely depleting, and in some cases destroying, their
populations.
As part of a range-wide effort to conserve the species and protect
future generations, scientists with NOAA FISHERIES, THE U.S. NAVY, AND PRIVATE
FIRM CHESAPEAKE SCIENTIFIC are using tagging and genetic technology to
understand how Atlantic sturgeon move through tributaries of the Chesapeake as
they spawn. Learn more about their ongoing collaboration in this video.

Over the last 30 years, Hubble has taken millions of incredible photos
of distant stars and galaxies. But Hubble's best images have come and gone, and
the world's most famous telescope will sadly come to an end in the
not-to-distant future. This video looks at how Hubble managed to capture an
image of the most distant Galaxy in the known universe, located 32 billion
light-years away.

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle tells us that it is impossible to
simultaneously measure the position and momentum of a particle with infinite
precision. In our everyday lives we virtually never come up against this limit,
hence why it seems peculiar. In this experiment a laser is shone through a narrow
slit onto a screen. As the slit is made narrower, the spot on the screen also
becomes narrower. But at a certain point, the spot starts becoming wider. This
is because the photons of light have been so localised at the slit that their
horizontal momentum must become less well defined in order to satisfy
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.
I based this video on one by PROF.WALTER LEWIN OF MIT:

Uncertainty Principle where he treats it as less spooky and more a consequence

Your favorite athlete closes in for a win; the crowd holds its breath,
and at the crucial moment ... she misses the shot. That competitor just
experienced the phenomenon known as “choking,” where despite months, even
years, of practice, a person fails right when it matters most. Why does this
happen, and what can we do to avoid it? Noa Kageyama and Pen-Pen Chen explain
why we choke under pressure.
LESSON BY NOA KAGEYAMA AND PEN-PEN CHEN, ANIMATION BY OLESYA SHCHUKINA.

Governments are somehow like large corporates. A company has customers
that they want to make and keep happy. A government has citizens that they want
to make and keep happy. Together, let’s transform governments all around the
world to make them future-ready.
