The song was sung for the first time on December 27, 1911, during the second day of the Indian National Conference's annual conference in Calcutta. Tagore's niece, Sarla Devi Chowdhurani, and a few friends performed the song. Tagore established the song's notation in 1919, and it has been followed ever since.

Your friendships are affected directly by love. When you get a boyfriend or girlfriend, you usually have to let go of two other important people in your life (such as a bestie or a family member...not cool!).

Korean idols will not be paid until they have paid off all of their debts. For example, if the label spent one million dollars training the members prior to their debut, they will not be paid until they have paid off the entire one million dollars to the agency. Some companies, including SM and JYP Entertainment, do not require newly debuted groups to repay their trainee debt.

Friendship is important for everyone, but it is especially important for women. According to a 2012 study at University College London's Department of Epidemiology and Public Health, family bonds are more important for men. Scientists studied 6,500 British men born in 1958 and discovered that marriage is the best thing for men's mental health because it strengthens their family ties. Women, on the other hand, tended to lose friends due to a lack of time when married. Female friendships can have a significant impact on the type of person these women are and will become. They also assist them in dealing with stress.

There are several theories as to how the phrase "it's raining cats and dogs" came to be. One example is that when houses had thatched roofs, pets and other small animals (squirrels, groundhogs, and so on) would nestle into the straw for warmth. When it rained, however, the straw became slick and the animals slid out, giving the impression that it was literally raining cats and dogs.

The term "housewarming party" is derived from a literal tradition that existed prior to the invention of electricity. Whenever someone built or purchased a new home, guests would bring firewood as a gift and light fires in the home's fireplaces. Not only was the house "christened," but it was also said to ward off evil spirits.

Most YouTube videos of adorable pairs of animals from different species fail to meet scientists' definitions of "friendship" (a long-lasting bond of sacrifice, shared moments and hurt after loss). Several studies, however, have shown that animals, at least chimps, baboons, horses, hyenas, elephants, bats, and dolphins, can form lifelong friendships with individuals who are not of their species. In Kenya, there is even documented evidence of a friendship between a centenarian turtle and a young hippopotamus.

Dresses had a "day" bodice with a high neckline and long sleeves and a "evening" bodice with a low neckline and short sleeves. There was little variation in dress length during this time period, and hemlines were either ankle-length or floor-sweeping.

Dresses were worn by men from many cultures around the world. The Scottish kilt, for example, and the toga worn by the ancient Greeks were all examples of menswear. Dresses were only later appropriated by women, and men stopped wearing them.

Taz became a popular cartoon character thanks to Looney Tunes. In reality, though, the devil is anything but. According to one research, it possesses the most powerful bite in the planet. Despite weighing just 20 pounds on average, these creatures can apply up to 94 pounds of pressure, giving them a "Bite Force Quotient" of 181. That's about twice as powerful as a hyena and 60 points stronger than a lion.

In 1996, a team of anatomists at the University of Adelaide in Australia revealed that koala and human fingerprints are readily confused, most likely due to the fact that koalas are primates' progenitors.

Throughout their lives, clownfish experience what it's like to be each gender. They are all born male, but some of them mature into girls (a process known as sequential hermaphroditism). Both are born with both male and female parts, and some males become alpha females if alpha females die.

Beavers chew to keep their teeth at an acceptable length because their teeth never stop growing. However, their teeth are also designed to withstand chewing. They feature an enamel composed of iron, which gives them an orange colour but also keeps them sturdy and acid resistant.

Snow leopards are built for cold weather and leaping since they live on mountain ledges and peaks. Their feet are fur-covered to keep them warm in snowy circumstances and to serve as snowshoes. They have lengthy tails that assist them keep their balance. And, because to their muscular rear legs, they can jump up to 50 feet in a single leap.

The dung beetle is the most powerful bug on the planet. They can propel balls of fresh animal faeces (thus their name) weighing more than 200 times their body weight. Researchers observed one dung beetle pushing a ball 1,141 times his own weight, the equivalent of a 150-pound person moving an incredible 80 tonnes.

Don't be fooled by the name—not it's a spider or a bird. It's a wasp, not a bee. However, this insect produces one of the most excruciating bug bites. According to entomologist Justin Schmidt, who developed the "Schmidt sting pain index" to assess the intensity of bug bites, the tarantula hawk is one of only two insects to receive a 4 on a scale of 1 to 4.

While hippos spend up to 16 hours a day in the water, they also spend time on land (and have been known to be super aggressive). They're also quite fast for their size. You will lose if you try to outrun a hippo. They weigh between 2,000 and 4,000 pounds and can run at speeds ranging from 15 to 30 miles per hour.

Because of their flexibility and the fact that their heads are only attached by one socket pivot, these birds can rotate their heads almost completely around. Researchers at Johns Hopkins University discovered that owls have backup arteries, which allow them to continue receiving blood and nutrients even when their blood vessels are severed while turning.

The stonefish causes severe vasoconstriction. If you are stung by one, you may have shock, paralysis, malaise, nausea and vomiting, sweating, delirium, pyrexia, cardiogenic shock, respiratory difficulty, and even death if anti-venom is not administered within a few hours. If you survive, the symptoms might continue for days to weeks, and full recovery can take months.

When it comes to sleeping habits, snails are all over the place. We'll call them manic. They may slumber for many hours before staying up for 30 hours or more. On the other hand, they have bizarre hibernation periods. They can sleep for up to three years, which is a survival mechanism for when they sense the need to self-preserve.

When the African Lungfish is in danger of dying, it secretes a mucus cocoon and burrows up to 9 inches into the earth, where it breathes through a built-in breathing tube that leads to the surface. It is thus dependent on rainfall to breathe.

That's enough power to kill a horse. And, while it may not be enough to kill you instantaneously, it is enough to knock you unconscious and leave you to drown. On a related point, being shocked by one burns your skin.

They may be little, but they kill millions of people each year, according to the World Health Organization. This is due to the fact that mosquitos contain and transmit a variety of viruses and illnesses, ranging from malaria to dengue fever to yellow fever. Malaria claimed the lives of 438,000 people in 2015.

Monkeys are certainly adorable. They may also be rather revolting. When Capuchin monkeys are feeling "randy," they urinate on their hands and feet. "We think the dominant males could utilise urine-washing to send nice, fuzzy sensations to females, that their solicitation is working and there's no need to run away,”.

Nobody has ever seen anything greater than 9.5 metres in length, and it was longer than the state of California. "A magnitude 13 earthquake is technically inconceivable since it would need a fault larger than the Earth."
