{68} Genius Platanista- the river Dolphins

Image
QI:          Do  Asia's river dolphins have eyes?  Q2:         How do they catch their prey? Q3:         What distance, they can see a finger-sized fish from? Q4:          At the surface of the river, what method do they use to catch a fish? Q5:         How do they catch their prey at the middle depths? Q 6         What is the use of their snout-whiskers? Ans----     1--- Yes, but they are nearly blind.    2---They use echolocation to navigate and catch fish. They can listen for surface-swimming  fish and sense electrical signals emitted by bottom-dwelling prey on the riverbed. The small clicks          they produce underwater echo back at them thus they identify prey and obstacles on their path.   3---From 20 km. away   4---They listen for fish movement.   5---At the middle depths they prefer echolocation  6---- With the help of whiskers, they can sense weak electrical signals emitted by  bottom-dwelling fish and shrimp, especially in calves.

 लुप्त हुई कबीर की बानी, भटक गई दुनिया सारी            संत कबीर की सुंदर बानी अपने बच्चों को जरूर सुनाइए  जामण मरण विचारि करि कूड़े काम निबारि,    जिनि पंथू तुझ चालणा सोई पंथ संवारि i                                                                            "  मैं-मैं " बड़ी बलाय है, सकै तो निकसी भागि,            कब लग राखौ  हे सखी, रूई लपेटी आग                    कबीरा खड़ा बाज़ार में, मांगे सबकी खैर ,                  ना काहू से दोस्ती, न काहू से बैर i                        दोस पराए देखि कर चला हसन्त हसन्त                                अपने याद न आवई, जिनका आदि न अंत i                  तिनका कबहूँ ना निन्दिये, जो पाँवन तर  होय,            कबहुं उड़ी आँखिन पड़े, तो पीर घनेरी                   बोली एक अनमोल है, जो कोई बोलै जानि                     हिये तराजू तौलि के, तब मुख बाहर आनि                         हिन्दू  कहें मोहि राम पियारा, तुर्क कहें रहमाना i                       आपस में लड़ी -लड़ी मुए, मरम न कोउ जाना i                    

[66 ] When life gives you lemons, make lemonade- A short speech

The Earth is strewn with uneven pieces of stones and concrete, hills and mountains, and thorny bushes.  But it has another face too. It has trees laden with fruits, beautiful flowers,  beautiful beaches, and so  many beautiful sights that rejoice us. It is up to us, how much we enjoy them. In fact, it's not easy to  look on the brighter side of things but eternal optimism can help us a lot to handle a 'negative  event'. Success and failure are two sides of one coin. Never take success to your head and never take  your failures to your heart. Whenever you feel fired, try to bounce back, find resilience, keep on  motivating you, make your failures your learning experiences, and identify the things you want to  but either you ignored them, you were lacking ability or you did not try for it. Imagine yourself  standing among competitors, soon you will realize that you are just a little speck in  comparison. Immediately throw yourself into the next task. Assess your strengths
