Centipedes possess a decentralized nervous system, with a brain composed of two or three pairs of ganglia and a ventral nerve cord with segmental ganglia. This system allows for independent control of individual legs and body segments, even when the brain is removed, as demonstrated by experiments where centipedes can still walk and respond to stimuli after being de-cephalized. Research suggests that central pattern generators (CPGs) play a crucial role in generating locomotion patterns, with sensory feedback and descending control from the brain also influencing movement.

In recent times, Telegram has gained a lot of popularity because of the controversy over WhatsApp’s new privacy policy. In January 2021, Telegram was the most downloaded app worldwide and crossed 500 million monthly active users. And with so many active users on the app, people might get messages in bulk from a group or a channel that can be a little irritating. So to get rid of the same, you can mute groups, chats, and channels on Telegram just like WhatsApp. You can mute notifications for one hour, eight hours, or two days, or you can disable notifications forever.
The S&P 500 slumped 1.8% on Monday and Tuesday, thanks to China Evergrande, the Chinese property company that looks like it is ready to default on its more-than $300 billion in debt. Cries of the next Lehman Brothers—or maybe the next Silverado?—echoed through the canyons of Wall Street as investors prepared for the worst.
