Computer addiction can be defined as the excessive or compulsive use of the computer which persists despite serious negative effects on a personal or social function. The concept of computer addiction is broadly divided into two types, namely offline and online computer addiction. Researchers link computer addiction with existing mental health issues, most notably depression. Studies showed that the majority of those addicted to computer usage specifically responded that they hoped to avoid reality. There are many consequences resulting from computer addiction. For example, excessive computer use may result in a lack of face-to-face social interaction, headaches, blurred vision, neck pain, fatigue, etc.

Footage shared on social media captured a unique rescue operation when hundreds of villagers from a community in India´s Nagaland state pulled a truck out of a gorge after it fell 21 meters from a narrow road. The local village administration had requested fit and healthy men from the village to join the mass rescue effort in the village of Kutsapo. Because no machinery was available, villagers used ropes and vines, singing as they worked, and they eventually pulled the truck up a steep bank and onto the road above. According to local reports, the driver of the truck luckily wasn't injured when his vehicle crashed down into the gorge.

1.Rustic Life : Rustic life is becoming hip. The rustic life refers to a lifestyle that wants to enjoy the leisure of country life while living in the city.

A growing number of Koreans in their 20s and 30s are turning their small studio apartments into cozy nooks. More people are sharing photos of their home interiors on social media platforms, showcasing carefully decorated rooms. A search of the hashtag “ja-chi-bang,” a Korean word for small studio apartments where people live alone, on Instagram found over 180,000 posts. The photos depict snug, warmly lit spaces usually consisting of either a single bed, a desk, or a small kitchen space. The decorations are not luxurious but minimal and intimate. The Instagram page “Todayhouse”, which shares submitted photos of artfully decorated studio apartments around Korea, has over 446,000 followers. Many of the submitted photos show home theaters that use projectors on walls or small home cafes, consisting of one tiny table with magazines, flowers, and coffee. Older generations of Koreans valued hard work and persistence, while the current generation strives for well-being in their lives. The enthusiasm for turning small rooms into pleasant spaces also reflects the faltering economy, reports say. As younger generations find it increasingly difficult to afford large houses, they are instead making the most out of their small living spaces. This phenomenon has birthed the concept of “fast furniture,” or affordable household items that can be easily replaced with changing trends, according to reports.

The Sahara was the most dangerous place on Earth 100 million years ago, according to scientists. A team of international researchers has found that the African desert region was once home to “ferocious predators” including flying reptiles and crocodile-like hunters living in a vast river system. The biggest review in almost 100 years of fossils from Cretaceous rock formations in south-eastern Morocco, known as the Kem Kem Group, has found that three of the largest predatory dinosaurs lived there. These included the sabre-toothed Carcharodontosaurus which was more than 8m long with enormous jaws and long, serrated teeth up to 20cm in length. Also living there was the 8m-long Deltadromeus, a member of the raptor family with long, slender hind limbs, as well as the predatory flying reptiles’ pterosaurs and crocodile-like hunters. Dr. Nizar Ibrahim, an assistant professor of biology at the University of Detroit Mercy and visiting researcher from the University of Portsmouth, said: “This was arguably the most dangerous place in the history of planet Earth, a place where a human time-traveler would not last very long.” Co-author of the report published in the journal ZooKeys, Professor David Martill, from the University of Portsmouth, explained the predators relied on an abundant supply of fish. He explained: “This place was filled with absolutely enormous fish, including giant coelacanths and lungfish. “The coelacanth, for example, is probably four or even five times large than today’s coelacanth. “There is an enormous freshwater saw shark called Onchopristis with the most fearsome of rostral teeth – they are like barbed daggers, but beautifully shiny.”
