You have probably looked out into the night sky and wished upon a shooting star (which essentially are really just meteors). But that does not mean fast moving stars do not exist. Yes, they are rare (about 1 in a million), but not non-existent. The first hyper-velocity star was discovered in 2005 moving away from the centre of the galaxy at about 10 times the speed of a normal star.

9. Black holes

There really is nothing much in the universe that is much stranger than a black hole. When the mass of billions of stars is squeezed into a single point, it is called a black hole. But you cannot really see it because its gravitational pull is so strong, not even light can escape it and the black hole is therefore invisible.

8. Magnetars

If the mass of a star heavier than the sun is squeezed to a few miles in diameter. With the speed with which it spins, a magnetar gains a temporary magnetic field which is trillions of times stronger than that of Earth’s. Now this magnetic field is strong enough to render your credit card unworkable from a distance of hundreds of thousands of miles away.

7. Neutrinos

Imagine taking a penny out of your pocket and holding it up for a second. Without you noticing, about 150 billion neutrinos passed through that coin as if it were not there at all.

6. Dark matter

If you take all of the energy and matter in the universe and pile it up into a huge chunk, you would not believe what you would observe. All of the stars, planets, comets and asteroids in all of the galaxies make up only about 23 percent of the universe. The rest of the matter is invisible to the naked eye (thus “dark” matter”)

5. Dark Energy

Just like dark matter, dark energy also makes up 77 percent of the total energy in the universe. It is thought that this is the energy that is moving the galaxies farther and farther from each other. In a few trillion years, dark energy will cause the Milky Way to become an island galaxy with no other galaxies in sight.

4. Planets

Planets might not feel all that strange because we as humans happen to live on one. But it might be difficult to imagine just how mysterious planets are. We do know that planets form out of the dust around stars. But exactly how the dust adds up to make giant planets is not yet entirely clear.

3. Gravity

The force that pulls two objects towards each other is called gravity and that is practically all we know about it. There is no definitive theory that conclusively defines the origin of this force. There is one theory that infinitesimally small particles called gravitons exude this force in matter, but it is not known whether it would ever be possible to detect these particles.

2. Life

There are all forms of matter and energy all over the universe but only in a few places are good enough to be able to sustain life. Right now we do not know whether life exists on a planet other than Earth, in the entire universe, but there are some rough estimates that it should.

1. The Universe

The mother of all mysteries is actually the universe itself. How did it come into being and if the Big Bang Theory is to be believed, exactly why that happened is difficult to determine.

But this time we bring you an exclusive Christmas and introduce you to some of the weirdest traditions followed around the world, than just sitting with family and having dinner.}

^{Here is the list of top 10 strangest Christmas traditions:}

^{10. Christmas log}

^{We are pretty much aware about burning the log in fireplace on the eve but there is another trend associated with wooden logs. It is basically at Catalonian tradition also known as caga tió or defecating log (English). It involves carving out characters on a log complete with a grinning face and accessorized by a hat. Then it is made to stand on the dining table during the fortnight leading to Christmas. Until then it has to be taken care of and fed with sweets, nuts and fruits. Then on the Christmas eve people beat up these logs with sticks to shed out whatever they fed them in addition to singing traditional songs. Fancy that!}

^{9. Donald duck cartoons}

^{However hilarious it may sound but it is true. In Sweden, the entire family gathers around TV at 3 o clock to watch “Donald duck and his friends wish you a merry Christmas”. The most popular episode is the one in which an Aracuan bird bedevils the duck. It is so popular that people know the dialogues by heart. The tradition dates back to 1959 when the country had only a few TV sets and since then the Disney special has become a part of their Christmas culture.}

^{8. Visiting a cemetery}

^{It sounds absurd to visit a place like this when you are supposed to be having a family dinner and singing happy Christmas carols. But this is a tradition in Finland. People visit cemeteries to remember their deceased relatives and friends and light candles on their graves. A place like graveyard is so frequented by people during the eve that some of them have special areas of candle lightening and cops have to be on toes to manage traffic around the cemeteries.}

^{7. The Gavle goat}

^{This is a Scandinavian tradition. The significance of the Yule goat varies from place to place. For some it is like Santa, bringing them gifts. For some it is a symbol of sacrifice while some prefer it for playing pranks. Whatever might be the reason, it is a part of their tradition now. In the Swedish town of Gavle, an effigy of goat is erected over 13 m tall and then a section of people suggest ways to destroy it. The tradition started in 1966 when the first goat was mysteriously set on fire. Ever since then some prepare for its demise while some think of ways to ‘save’ the effigy. One thing is for sure, it has surely increased the tourism graph of the area.}

^{6. The pickle ornament}

^{It is a German tradition where the last ornament to be decorated on the Christmas tree is a Christmas pickle. By the way it is not real pickle, it is an ornament made from blown glass and passed from one generation to next. The trick is to hide it in a hard to find place and its green color does an excellent job in camouflaging it. The first child who finds the pickle gets good luck for one complete year and of course a special gift. Nowadays it is prevalent in many countries.}

^{5. Mummers}

^{Popular in Latvia, mummers or people disguised in animal masks or death spirits go from one home to another asking for food and blessing the homes they visit. Their journeys are accompanied with a lot of music and dancing. However it is not Christmas they celebrate but winter solstice. Their practices are based on Pagan times when people employed dark magic to persuade the sun to return before daylight completely disappeared.  Their festivities last for 3 days starting from 22nd December and ending on 25th. In Britain their dancing is accompanied with small dramas depicting struggle between sun and the forces of winter.}

^{4. Spider web}

^{It is prevalent in Ukraine. It is quite similar to the German tradition of ornament pickle. The Christmas tree is decorated the usual way with all sorts of lights with an exception of a spider web. Whoever spots the web is greeted with good luck.  The weird tradition has a legend associated to it. It is said that once a poor widow mother couldn’t buy Christmas decorations for her tree. But in the morning, to her surprise she found out that a spider had decorated the tree with its web! I don’t know if any part of it is true but people have got to make up something, right?}

^{3. Krampus}

^{I am sure you know about the evil twin of Santa. The one is nothing like our beloved old man. Known with various names across the globe. You must have heard him as Black Peter. Sound familiar? Of course he is a result of Pagan beliefs with hooves, horns and a monstrous tongue.  Krampus punishes the children who have been naughty or mischievous swatting them with switches and typing up with rusty chains and then dragging them down the fireplace. Mostly popular in parts of Europe, Krampus night is celebrated on 5th December and people wear masks and roam the streets to beat up someone with sticks.}

^{2. Relationship status}

^{To what limits people do not go to find that one special person for them. Well Czech women are not far behind. The unmarried women have a special way to predict the fortune of their relationship for the next year. Here is how to do it: stand with your back to door and toss a shoe of yours over a shoulder. If  it falls with toe facing the door the luck is in your favor and you’ll get married next year, if not then better luck next time.}

^{1.  Snap Dragon}

^{Flap dragon or Snatch dragon was a game where people tried to snatch raisins out of a bowl of burning brandy. Now that is something really daredevil. Played in USA, Canada and UK, the game involves putting raisins in the mouth to put them out. The fun part is while the game is on, lights are turned off and the winner can be recognized with blue flames dripping from his mouth and hands. It was at its peak from 16th to 19th century but gradually its popularity died down because of the risks involved.}

Sometimes in life, it becomes difficult to put our physical desires above the spiritual peace, sometimes it is not easy to step aside and let the other person wins, sometimes it’s not easy to love someone and it is definitely not accessible to accept the second option because we are humans and we want the best, we want to be one the top and we must acquire something which is beyond compare.  And why not? God put Humans above all the living things, so it becomes obvious that if God put the humans on the top then why must have the best of everything.

This is sickness of the human mind which makes a human’s esteem so low. We want everything which looks good and ravishing and leave all the ugly things untouched. What the humans fail to understand is that the real and eternal beauty exists only and only in the heart, not in the appearance and definitely not in the innocence of a beautiful face and graceful body. There are many people who became the victims of this sickness of mind and these victims altered themselves so much that today they are not only desired by people but they are also loved and esteemed. Among those victims were many people who were rejected by the world only because they were not in the perfect shape so here they are people; as good as new. The same society which loathed them is crazy of them today. Among them the top ten most magnificent, marvelous and amazing people who were fat earlier are:

It’s not east to believe that this is the same who couldn’t remember a thing in his childhood (only in his role in harry potter).

10. Don’t act desperate

Don’t be desperate to take the next step. If you are talking to you for the first time, don’t ask for a date at the first go. When she is out with you do not find excuses to touch her. Give time to any relationship, she is not running away, move step by step. If you keep on touching her with silly excuses she will get the wrong idea about you and you will be tagged as a pervert. Keep your desperation in control and don’t let it show.

9. Don’t be a stalker

If a girl denied talking to you do not follow her everywhere. This will make no difference. Just that she will get irritated and will ask someone to help her out. If you really want to attract girls maintain decorum. Don’t call or message her again and again. If you take it intelligently she may talk to you later but when you irritate her night and day, she will get irritated and get a wrong picture of you. Give her some time and approach like a gentleman.

8. Don’t use pick up lines

“Do you have a library card? Because I’m checking you out” , “Apart from being sexy, what do you do for a living?”

This is the worst way to impress a girl. A cheesy pick up line will never impress her. Instead she will make sure she doesn’t cross her way with you in the future. If you want to keep distance with girls you may use these but while attracting girls you have to maintain a distance from these cheesy lines.

7. Listen to her

Just don’t go on with your personal problems, bravery tales and your childhood stories. Let her speak and listen to her. A girl likes someone who listens to her patiently and well responds to what she’s saying. Don’t let your mind wander around when she’s talking to you. She chose you to tell her problems, don’t make her feel that you are bored and not interested in what she is saying. Be a good listener always. This will definitely help you to attract girls. Don’t tell her that she speaks too much, tell her you like when she goes on with her talks. It doesn’t mean you need to agree with whatever she’s saying. She won’t appreciate it much. Let her speak and give you views on it. She likes guys who has their own thinking and don’t just agree with what people around say.

6. Improve your personality

Groom yourself. A good personality attracts everyone. If you do not dress and behave properly, nobody is going to be around you. Who will like to go on a date with someone who stinks? You must follow a hygienic routine to impress girls. You must smell good, look good and behave nicely. These are the things must for your personality. Do not shout at the waiter at your first date. It may be your last one with the girl then. Girls like guys with etiquette.

5. Ask her out

To attract a girl, you need to spend time with her. Ask her to go out with you. If it’s a first time date, keep in mind, not to take her to a candle light dinner. You have asked her for the very first time and she has agreed but that does not mean she has accepted your marriage proposal. Spend casual time with her. You can take her to some concert or movie where you can save yourself from dead silence if you to have nothing to talk to for a while.

4. Compliment her

Compliments are the one thing girls love just as much as they like chocolates. She is here to meet you and it is visible that she spent a quite amount of time being ready. You must compliment her then. Even if she’s not out with you, you can text her after a office party that she was looking beautiful. Keep in mind not to compliment her as ‘sexy’ for the very first time. This will not give her a good indication.

3. Sense of humor

You must have a good sense of humor  Because girls like those guys who can make girls laugh. But be careful; do not cross your limits while doing so. Do not try to make her laugh with dirty jokes. If you are commenting on some girl’s body part to make her laugh, you are going the totally wrong way. She won’t like it at all. Dirty jokes will give her the idea of you being a pervert. So save yourself from the tag. Be on the safe side.

2. Be honest

“Honesty is the best policy”. You must have come across this quote hundreds of time since your school days. It is indeed true. Girls love honest guys. Maybe she has been cheated before, so it may be difficult for her to trust you. But, make sure once she starts trusting you there’s no looking back. You must be honest enough; if you are busy with your friends and disconnect her call saying you are working chances are many that she’s standing behind you. Be honest to her no matter what. She is going to like it much more than any other of your qualities.

1. Be yourself

You must get one thing that you should never lose your originality for anything. Its okay that you are trying to attract girls but being false won’t ever help. Make them like you for what you are and not for what you are trying to be. You may win someone’s heart by faking yourself but when she comes to know about the truth, she won’t even like to see your face. So, always be yourself, no matter what.

Mayan were the masters of astronomy; Mayan or Maya civilization were agriculturist, they needed a perfect notion regarding the rising and slumber of the sun so that they could grow their vegetation’s  Although they had no wisdom but they had brains; they were masters of mathematics and science and on the basis of the mathematics and science, they prepared entire tables which comprehended all activities which were to take place in the space between the stars and planets as well as the earth. The calculations they made were only till 21^st December 2012 because the nation was devastated and they couldn’t continue their research. One reason of the their downfall was because of a disease named “measles”; in Asia and Europe this is a daily basis thing therefore the body has the immunity to block the deadly effect but the Mayan people could not live through it. The rest of the folks who survived the disease settled in Mexico and become the Victims of the Spanish. After some time the folks acquired the independence from the Spanish and today they exist as the state of Mexico.

The Mayan civilization was completely ruined but what lived on were the predictions which they made on the basis of their calculations. The top ten predictions were:

10.  EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN ON MARCH 2011:

The massive catastrophe under which Japan went in 11^th of March 2011 was predicted by the Mayan long ago. They mentioned some changes which the earth’s plate will undergo and they also predicted the date of the shifts in the earth’s plates. An earthquake of magnitude 8.9 followed by a tsunami was witnessed on the exact same date as predicted by the Mayan centuries ago.

9. TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE AUGUST 1999:

A complete solar eclipse was observed at earth on 11^th of august 1999. The eclipse was seen over the Atlantic Ocean first then came toward England. This eclipse was of very vital importance as for astronomical and fortune telling. It was the start of a new era for many religions. This solar eclipse was among the predictions which were made by the Mayans.

8. AMERICA’S NINE ELEVEN:

The biggest disaster the American nation ever witnessed was that of 9/11, in which the entire world trade centre was turned into ashes within few minutes. This event changed the face of America; no one ever considered the possibility of such an attack but the Mayans along ago predicted this event, “Great steel birds will fall from the sky and end the great city to the north”. Mayans knew the art of not only science but the art of manipulating the spirits.

7. DOWNFALL OF AZTECS:

The civilization of Aztec and Mayan existed side by side in the Yucatan peninsula. The Aztecs had strong military forces and they believed in wars but the Mayans were rural people who lived on their agriculture. The Aztecs were somewhat superior and more capable; they had more knowledge than the Mayan. Mayans were the masters of black magic and stuff like that and they predicted the downfall of the Aztec which turned out to be true.

6. DISCOVERY OF PLANET X:

The Mayans predicted the discovery of a Planet; they gave some hints regarding that planet saying it would be a dark sphere of energy and that it would go around the sun in an orbit of 750 thousand years. The planet was discovered later by the modern scientists and was given the name “Nibiru”.

5. EXISTENCE OF BLACK HOLE:

The Mayan predicted the existence of the black hole in the galaxy; they referred to the hole as “HUNAB KU”. The esteemed the “hunab ko” and considered it to be prominent creator. The black hole was discovered by the scientists later and is positioned at the centre of Milky Way.

4. SHIFTING OF EARTH’S PLATES IN WINTER 2012:

The predictions done by the Mayan regarding 2012 has been completely mistaken. First of all there is no such thing as that the world will end in 2012. The thing is that unfortunately the Mayan Calendar has the calculations only till the 21^st December because they civilization itself was coming to an end and they couldn’t make any progress. There is no such thing in Mayan calendar that the world will end on 21st December 2012 only because the calendar has calculations till the 21^st of December 2012. The calendar says that the earth will go under some massive climatic changes in the Winter solstice 2012, which may lead to some tsunami or storms; there are predictions that the earth will go under an cataclysms but they are prediction, mere ideas not some philosophy.

3. A COMET WILL APPEAR:

One of the biggest predictions of the Mayan is that a comet (A lightening ball) will appear in the galaxy will shoot towards the earth; its trajectory will be a threat to the human beings. No such comet has been seen up till now but it is among the seven vital prophecies of the Mayan.

2.  HUMAN WILL Transform INTO SPIRITUAL FORM:

A phosphorescent will be directed to the earth from the centre of the galaxy. When this light will be subjected to the earth, it will synchronize the human form and they will have a new spiritual form. They limit which exists between the material and the spiritual world will be abandoned. This prophecy was subject to the years from 1999 to 2002, but no such thing happened. There is only one limit which exists between the material and spiritual world, only one barrier is present and it is death.

1. THEIR OWN FIASCO:

In the year 1492 A.D, a Spanish sailor named Christopher Columbus began a voyage in quest of finding a route to Japan, after some time he did saw the land of Japan and landed there only to find that this is not the land of Japan but America. The natives living there were very rural and had no idea about the other world; for them the world is where they live. When the Spanish arrived there, the natives confused them with gods as the natives had a prophecy saying that the gods are about to arrive at their land. Out of esteem the natives bestowed the Spanish with gold, jewels and many rare ornaments. When the Spanish returned to their land with so much wealth, the Queen was very happy and instantly ordered to raid the natives and acquire all the gold and wealth. The Mayan prediction was as such that some men would eventually arrive at their land with white beards and horses, they confused them with gods. The prediction did come true but it resulted in their fiasco.

You must be aware that when the world is celebrating Valentine’s Day and other anniversaries with their loved ones, there are people around you who are single. But have you ever wondered why it is so? There can be many reasons of a person being single. We are listing here the top ten reasons why people are single:

10. Money

There are people around who are single and on asking why they haven’t green signaled anyone they say they love to spend their money on themselves. Yes there are sort of people who think that commitment means an expense. According to them, of they are committed they have to spend on their partners; they have to give them gifts for birthdays and anniversary and all. Apart from that, going on a date also seems to be a costly affair. So, being single becomes one of the cost cutting for many people around. It seems to be a little strange but logical as well isn’t it?

9. Your Personality

This is a harsh reality. May be you are single because nobody wants to be with you. Your personality has lot to be with this. If you are a flirt and people around you know this you have chances of being single, as nobody wants a commitment with a flirt. There are other parts of the reason too. May be you are not attractive enough, by attractive we do not mean good looking but your maintenance of personality matters. How you carry yourself? If you are not tidy and wearing unclean clothes to office, it’s hard to get you a partner. So, if you are looking forward to commitment you must have a makeover of your personality.

8. Still love your ex

One of the most common reasons why people are single is their previous relationship. They are still not out of the failure of their previous relationship or maybe they still love their ex and cannot think of being with someone else. It happens sometimes that they are not mentally prepared to love someone else, as they still have feelings for their ex partner. From one viewpoint its right as it won’t be justice to your partner if you still love your ex; on the other hand someone is needed to make you forget your ex.

7. Too shy

If you are shy and single too. There have to be a connection. If you are too shy to talk to the opposite sex then you are bound to be single. If you are so shy even to introduce yourself to a guy/girl how will you go further? For commitment, you need to know and understand each other first, in order to take the next step. If you never take the first step how would the next come? Communication is the first step for any relation. Communication can make and break relations. So, if you are a shy person, maybe it’s the reason why you are still single.

6. Over Confidence

Yes, it is one of the reasons for being single. We will tell you how. You must have people around you who are so confident that they will get any girl/boy. They think that they will choose any one and they will get them. You must have noticed one thing more, that these are the people who are single most of the times. The over confidence of getting anyone often leads them to trouble. They are the people who remain single longer.

5. Enjoying their freedom

And there are people who are enjoying their freedom, and think there is whole life to love and engage in commitments. They are enjoying their late night parties and are happy that they don’t have to answer anyone. They think commitment means end of freedom so they are happy single and enjoying their freedom.

4. Do not believe in love

While there are people who are taking oaths over love all around, there are also people who don’t believe in love. There can be many reasons for it, may be their earlier relationships didn’t work all right or their parents always fight or any other reason. These are the people who choose to remain single because they think there’s nothing called love and it’s just an illusion people are falling for. May be there will come a day when they will find someone who will make them believe that love exists, but till then they are happy with their notion of love.

3. No time for love

In today’s life of hustle bustle over work and career, there are people who choose career over relationships. They think that relationship will divert their minds from their work, hence affecting their performance, so they like to stay away from love. They don’t have enough time to give to their partners as they are too busy in the race towards the top. In addition, no one would like to have a partner who is always engrossed in work. So there are two sides of the issue, they do not choose any one and no one chooses them.

2. Afraid of commitments

Another important reason why people are single is because they are afraid of commitments. May be they are afraid that the relationship won’t work and they will end up getting separated. This will result in heart break and they want to prevent that. Another reason why people are afraid of commitment is the word commitment itself. They are not sure enough that they will be able to carry a relationship. They know that relationship means caring, loving and be accountable to some extent to a person, and they are afraid that they won’t be able to do justice to a relationship.

1. Waiting for the right person

If you ask someone that they are single, the most probable answer you will get is that they are waiting for the right person in their life. So, given by the mob of single persons this happens to be one of the top reasons why people are single. They are waiting for their dream partners. Someone they can look forward to and spend the rest of their lives. They may come across many people daily but their Mr/Miss right have certain specifications which they have made in mind and they are waiting for the day they will get them. Till then they are enjoying their happy single lives.
