9. Emerald Green Pit Viper
The emerald green pit viper was first discovered in the eastern Himalayan Mountains of the nation of Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, in 2002. Since the species was discovered relatively recently, there’s still a lot to learn about it. It belongs to a genus of at least 32 species of venomous pit vipers endemic to parts of Asia, including the Indian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia, China, and the Pacific Islands.
8. Giant Anaconda
Also known as the green anaconda, the giant anaconda is the largest snake species in the world! While it might not be the longest, it is the biggest when it comes to its length-to-weight ratio. Do you know what the longest snake in the world is? Leave me your guess in the comments below!! The answer is coming up!!
7. Emerald Tree Boa
The emerald tree boa can be found in the wetlands and tropical rainforests of several South American countries, including Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Guayana, Suriname, and northwestern Brazil. It’s not dependent on open water, but often dwells along rivers, including the Amazon River.
6. Red Milk Snake
The red milk snake inhabits a vast territory, from southern Canada down through the United States all the way to northern South America, so you may have even come across one! This snake prefers rocky environments, including hillsides, pastures, and woodland clearings.
5. Brazilian Rainbow Boa
The Brazilian rainbow boa is found primarily in the Amazon river basin, as well as coastal Guyana, French Guiana, Suriname, and southern Venezuela. This species typically dwells near water in hot and wet tropical and subtropical broad-leaved forests.

Known more formally as the white-lipped island pit viper, this snake is found on Indonesia’s lesser Sunda Islands.

The eyelash viper is found throughout Central and South America. It’s a pit viper species that is named after a set of scales over its eyes that resemble eyelashes, cute right?? Scientists are still trying to figure out what these “eyelashes” are for.

POLAND - WikiVidi Documentary

It is a unitary state divided into 16 administrative subdivisions, covering an area of 312679 km2 with a mostly temperate climate. With a population of over 38.5 million people, Poland is the sixth most populous member state of the European Union. Poland's capital and largest city is Warsaw. Other cities include Kraków, Wrocław, Poznań, Gdańsk and Szczecin. The establishment of a Polish state can be traced back to 966, when Mieszko I, ruler of a territory roughly coextensive with that of present-day Poland, converted to Christianity. The Kingdom of Poland was founded in 1025, and in 1569 it cemented a longstanding political association with the Grand Duchy of Lithuania by signing the Union of Lublin. This union formed the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, one of the largest and most populous countries of 16th and 17th century Europe with a uniquely liberal political system which declared Europe's fir...

Volcanic Winter, Population Bottlenecks, and Human Evolution
2015 Hallam L. Movius, Jr. lecture and reception with Stanley H. Ambrose, Professor of Anthropology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
The eruption of the Mount Toba supervolcano in the Indonesian island of Sumatra 74,000 years ago brought about an era of severe environmental degradation that decimated populations of Neanderthals and modern humans. Archaeological evidence suggests that modern humans survived this era by creating cooperative intergroup social networks and behaving like tribes. Neanderthals, on the other hand, behaved more like primate troops, living in small, closed territories with limited intergroup interaction. Stanley Ambrose will discuss the behaviors that contributed to the competitive advantage of modern humans and the demise of Neanderthals. Recorded March 12, 2015.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Sacramento ( SAK-rə-MEN-toh; Spanish: [sakɾaˈmento]) is the capital city of the U.S. state of California and the seat of Sacramento County. Located at the confluence of the Sacramento River and the American River in Northern California's Sacramento Valley, Sacramento's estimated 2018 population of 501,334 makes it the sixth-largest city in California and the 9th largest capital in the United States. Sacramento is the seat of the California Assembly, the Governor of California, and Supreme Court of California, making it the state's political center and a hub for lobbying and think tanks. Sacramento is also the cultural and economic core of the Sacramento metropolitan area, which had 2010 population of 2,414,783, making it the fifth largest in California.Sacramento is the fastest-growing major city in California, owing to its status as notable financial center on the West Coast and as a major educational hub, home of Sacramento State University and University of California, Davis. Similarly, Sacramento is a major center for the California healthcare industry, as the seat of Sutter Health, the world-renowned UC Davis Medical Center, and the UC Davis School of Medicine, and notable tourist destination in California, as the site of The California Museum, the Crocker Art Museum, California Hall of Fame, the California State Capitol Museum, and the Old Sacramento State Historic Park. Sacramento is known for its evolving contemporary culture, dubbed the most hipster city in California. In 2002, the Harvard University Civil Rights Project conducted for Time magazine named Sacramento America's Most Diverse City.Before the arrival of the Spanish, the area was inhabited by the Nisenan people indigenous peoples of California. Spanish cavalryman Gabriel Moraga named surveyed and named the Rio del Santísimo Sacramento (Sacramento River) in 1808, after the Blessed Sacrament, referring to the Eucharist in the Catholic Church. In 1839, Juan Bautista Alvarado, Mexican governor of Alta California granted the responsibility of colonizing the Sacramento Valley to Swiss-born, Mexican citizen John Augustus Sutter, who subsequently established Sutter's Fort and the settlement at the Rancho Nueva Helvetia. Following the American Conquest of California and the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo, the waterfront developed by Sutter began to be developed and incorporated in 1850 as the City of Sacramento. As a result of the California Gold Rush, Sacramento became a major commercial center and distribution point for Northern California, serving as the terminus for the Pony Express and the First Transcontinental Railroad.
