What If You Woke Up During Surgery
It's normal to feel nervous if you're about to undergo an operation. Unfortunately, numerous urban legends exist about how things can go wrong during surgery. Such myths don't have any grounds, but they can escalate your anxiety. One such fear makes people wonder what will happen if they wake up when an operation is in progress. People usually receive general anesthesia before major surgery. It relaxes muscles and puts patients to sleep. Therefore, nobody feels the pain of the operation. Waking up during surgery is called anesthesia awareness, and it is an extremely rare occurrence. According to the American Society of Anesthesiologists, only one person out of 10,000 wakes up from general anesthesia before an operation is finished. And if we speak about high-risk surgeries, this number drops to one in 40,000 patients.

You Do This Wrong Every Morning, But You Could ...
How to start your day right? What do we all do in the morning? Jump oAut of bed because we slept through our 5 alarms, watch some TV as the coffee’s brewing, grab a bagel, and run out the door. But some of the most common morning habits are actually really bad for you! For example, when you open your messages before you've even washed your face, you mess up your priorities. You concentrate on that stack of tasks that have accumulated in your inbox. And your attention switches from really important morning activities, such as having a meal or taking a shower, to work responsibilities. Attend to your personal needs first and only then pay attention to your other tasks.

You're traveling to New York City and, of course, you want to see one of its main symbols - the Statue of Liberty. You take out your drone and prepare to fly it over the statue to get the best possible footage. Stop right there - there's a Federal Aviation Administration ban on it. National and state parks, sports arenas, and airports are some other places where you shouldn't take your drone for a spin. In other countries, there are drone-free cities, like Paris, for example.

Ocean secrets and facts you might not want to k...
You know what I’ve been thinking lately? Here we are again! Tell me what’s on your mind? I feel like going to REALLY cold places. You? I give you only 3 days and you’d eventually end up going to Hawaii. This time I mean it because I’m very inspired by those beautiful birds in tuxedos. By what? I mean.. by penguins. Ahh, aren’t they so cute?! They look like gentlemen wearing suits shambling around. Hah. Where does this penguin love come from? You know it’s not like adopting a dog. Yeah. That’s why I’m like “I should get to them.” And? I’ve been checking my possibilities for Antarctica! Uhmm. Okay things are getting a bit crazy right now. You know there are countries like Peru, Chile where you could see them. Does going to Antarctica sound more possible to you than going to South America? Yes. Because I’ve actually found a job vacancy in Antarctica. Uk Antarctic Heritage Trust announced that they’re looking for somebody who will be counting Gentoo Penguins in Antarctica and working in the souvenir shop at the same time! Hahah. Man, I’m sorry but I can’t imagine you doing that. Well okay at some point there are difficulties like having no time zone and cleaning penguin poop and- What? Cleaning penguin poops? Hahah. Wow, that is the dream job! And some personal hygiene issues... Don’t tell me you won’t have water to wash your hands. No no. I just remember reading something like “You’re lucky if a cruise ship docks nearby because that’ll be the only way for you to take a.. proper shower.” Wow what a relief.. Hahah. Yeah, also I won't have to pay my bills or any rent. There are like 2 ATMs though. I think I can survive for 6 months. What would you need the atms for? Are you gonna be going to the clubs with your penguins? It doesn’t sound so bad! I would come to Antarctica only to witness this! You know there’s a lot more to witness rather than my catchy dance moves with my penguins in Antarctica. Let me enlighten you a little bit more about it. Maybe you’ll change your mind eventually. I’m cleaning my dog’s poop and that’s quite enough for me already. But let’s hear what you’ll say. We can say that this coldest place ever can have temperatures as low as -128 ºF. So humankind didn’t really have a lot of attempts to discover it fully. It’s amazing how living beings survive in this eternal cold. And there’s a part we can’t even witness. The ice covering the continent hides a lot of things. Even today, scientists keep different creatures that don’t resemble any other living being. According to some legend, below this ice there might be a hidden city. The lost city of Atlantis. Listen to Bright Side on: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...
