THE BEST SLEEPING POSITION
I am trying to disband a wide misconceptions regarding sleep moment. Being an early riser is preferable to being a night owl. Neither is superior to the other. The distinction is that, because of the way society is structured, those who are morning people generally perform far better. We've aphorisms like" the early raspberry gets the worm," but regrettably, evening folks constantly suffer from them. They constantly have to work on a morning person's schedule since they truly live in a world of morning people.

HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW ELEPHANTS?
Are you aware that, like young humans, adult elephants do require mentoring from a father figure as they get older? In this way, humans and elephants are similar. Another resemblance is that we have witnessed elephants burying their deceased. The fact that elephants are not just clever but also self-aware adds to the tragedy of elephant poaching, but the similarities don't stop there.

DON'T MESS WITH AN ELEPHANT
A group of Kenyan elephants actively mine for salt in a cave. Elephants are industrious creatures and humans have long used them as beasts of burden and for doing things like knocking over and moving trees. Thanks to their incredible strength. In some videos, we can see them tearing down fences seemingly just for fun but even on their own they have shown some pretty remarkable ingenuity. For example, if you head to Western Kenya you can find an extinct volcano, an area where an unusual herd of elephants have made their home and these are the only known elephants who will go out of their way to mine salt out of a mountain cave.

WHY ELEPHANTS NEVER HAVE CANCER
Did you know that there were approximately 10 million elephants on the planet 100 years ago? Poaching, hunting, and habitat destruction have wiped out the population, which now numbers less than 500,000. It's unlikely they'll ever have a population anywhere close to that size again. Despite current attempts to safeguard elephants, over 20,000 elephants are being poached each year for their ivory. Poaching serves no practical use; it is simply utilized to feed a business founded on ignorance. People might be less motivated to slaughter elephants if they learn more about them.

A CHANCE IN HELL
Professional rivalries, regardless of field, can lead to some dirty business. However, one professional competition within the Welsh architect community took a demonic turn in the 1890s. St. Mary's Church in Swansea's city centre opted to undergo substantial renovations during this time. A local architect offered to work on the project, but he was passed over in favour of an outside contractor.

THE MYSTERY OF SPIRIT PHOTOGRAPHY
We're all looking for that one ideal Instagram selfie. You know, that finely filtered one million liked snap on Facebook. I mean, that one-in-a-million posture that you wish Facebook would always remind you. It's also aggravating when people photograph your ideal pose. But have you ever had a photo taken that was ruined by a ghost? Yes, you heard me right, a ghost! It may seem absurd, but ghosts have been appearing in photographs since long before the first selfie was taken. In fact, before the advent of the Internet of Things. I bet you didn't know that. In truth, the practice of capturing ghosts on film, known as spirit photography, dates back to the nineteenth century and was popularised by William Mumler even though deceitfully.

INDIAN CURSED JEWELS
Diamonds are said to be a girl's greatest friend, but this black diamond I'm talking about in this article is every girl's worst nightmare. Natural black diamonds, as opposed to colourless diamonds, have trace amounts of graphite within them, giving the stones a solid black colouring. And probably no more spectacular example exists than the massive 67.5 carat Black Orlov diamond, which was formerly even more magnificent at a gigantic 195 carats. It was discovered in 19th century India, where it was stolen off a statue of Brahma, the Hindu God of Creation, by a greedy Jesuit cleric. This will soon spark a chain to evil reactions as itemised below.

SCIENTISTS NIGTHMARE
I present to you a few cursed artefacts that have defied explanation. The first on the list is The Grizzly chair. This Busby stoop chair certainly isn't just an average chair that we know? It's been permanently affixed to a wall, out of reach of any butts that might happen to sit on it. But why is this so? Well, Thomas Busby, the chair's namesake, was a criminal who operated in North Yorkshire, England in 1702. He and his father-in-law ran a coin counterfeiting enterprise, flooding the market with counterfeit money. After a heated dispute between the two, Thomas murdered his father-in-law.

DON'T MESS WITH DOLLS
DON’T MESS WITH DOLLS We'll have to travel to Japan and go all the way back to 1918. A young guy called Eikichi Suzuki was traveling across northern Japan when he came upon a little 16-inch-tall kimono doll for sale. He bought the doll without hesitation and gave it to his two-year-old sister Kikuko when he arrived home. The small girl was so taken with the doll that she named it Okiku after herself. A year later, however, Japan was overwhelmed with yellow fever, an infectious and terrible epidemic that killed many people, including Kikuko.

CURSED OBJECTS THAT SCIENTISTS FEAR
CURSED OBJECTS THAT SCIENTISTS FEAR Scientists are always looking for solutions, yet not everything in the world can be explained.Many people think dolls are cute, but I would say that there is nothing creepier. Let me introduce you to Little Jimmy as an example. LeRoy Bland, a 12-year-old boy from Kentucky, won this doll at a funfair in 1910. With its cracked porcelain face and frightening blood red smile, the doll is disturbing enough. But the narrative only grew worse when the First World War broke out in 1914. To honour all the brave young men serving in the war, LeRoy's mother sewed Jimmy its own soldier outfit. She had no idea that World War I would turn out to be one of the worst conflicts in history with a death toll estimated to be between 15 and 22 million. Yeah, Jimmy here has turned into a very gloomy talisman, but he simply looks frightening. Whereas I have a true story of a legitimately cursed doll, it's up to you to judge whether this creepy doll earns the title of most cursed toy. Are you prepared?

THE INITIAL IMAGES OF NASA'S JWST IMAGES
THE INITIAL IMAGES OF NASA’S JWST IMAGES I'm relieved, joyful, and ecstatic. This will undoubtedly alter the playing field. For the first time, we'll be able to begin answering some of the questions that we've always had. NASA has unveiled the James Webb Space Telescope's first full-color photographs. The entire world is watching. Are you prepared to post the first image? - Let's get started. Let's get started. And these photographs only scratch the surface of what JWST is capable of. JWST, the largest and most advanced space telescope ever built, took two and a half decades to build and launch.
