Box Jellyfish, the Most Poisonous Animals in the World

Cobra, blue ringed octopus, scorpion, or the Brazilian wandering spider is the animals that are poisonous. But above all, there is one other animal that has the most deadly poisons.

The animal is the Box Jellyfish or box jellyfish (Chironex fleckeri). Since 1954, carrying as many as 5567 people were killed stung by their tentacles or tentacle. Number is likely more than that.


As quoted from Dumage, April 19, 2011, poisonous jellyfish is one of the most deadly in the world. If stung, the poison will attack the heart, nervous system and skin cells.

And worse, the box jellyfish can be very painful that the people affected will experience a shock, heart attack or drowned before being able to get out of the water.

Those who survived the attack box jellyfish will experience pain several weeks after contact with him. In fact, humans do not have a chance to survive if the poison had spread through the blood vessels.


More deaths from box jellyfish stings or box jellyfish.


Those who are affected by these jellyfish can be given the vinegar at least 30 seconds after touching. According to research, vinegar contains acetic acid that can paralyze jellyfish nematocysts that have not entered into the bloodstream (although these steps do not relieve pain).

Wearing a bathing suit that covered the body while swimming in the ocean is one of the best preventive measures to reduce the risk of a jellyfish attack your feet. Box jellyfish jelly itself is highly toxic to live in the waters around Asia and Australia.

Save This Ancient Stone Inscriptions Japanese Residents from the Tsunami



With a height of 4 feet or 1.2 meters, this stone looks normal, nothing special. However, who would have thought he who saved the lives of Aneyoshi, Iwate Prefecture, when the devastating tsunami struck Japan, March 11, 2011 last.



At the gray stone carved a warning: "Do not build a house under this point." Anyone in violation will face the risk of floods and tsunamis.

And, the people adhere to that old advice. A small village consisting of 11 houses and 32 people survived, although actually they are in precarious positions. 2011 tsunami waves struck, only 300 feet or 91.44 meters below the inscription.

In the history of Japanese tsunamis often occur. Our ancestors tried to warn future generations through the stones inscriptions are commonly encountered along the coast. Some of the stones even 600 years old.

"The inscription is a memorial between generations, to remind the future generations to avoid suffering the same with their fathers," said Itoko Kitahara, natural disaster experts from Ritsumeikan University in Kyoto, told the New York Times.

Is the tsunami in 1896 that killed 22,000 people, who assured residents Aneyoshi to move to higher ground and stay there.

After a stable condition, not a long time the tsunami hit, people started to bring myself down the hill toward the beach. Fatal result, the 1933 tsunami struck again, only four survivors. After the accident, the stone inscription erected. Stone believed that was what the villagers, had saved them from the tsunami of 1960.

"They understand the tsunami horror, then they established
stone inscriptions to warn us," said Tamishige Kimura (64), leader Aneyoshi.

According to him, learn from experience, the villagers consider the inscription is the rule of the ancestors. "No one has dared to break them."

And the suggestion was proven, 9.0 Richter scale earthquake and tsunami that killed 29,000 people, the most severe since the quake Jongan 869 years, do not touch Aneyoshi. Although there are citizens who have lost four families who lost while traveling in a neighboring town.

The residents Aneyoshi do anything to imitate what their ancestors. Blue paint is made at the point where the 2011 tsunami wave to reach the hill.

Not only the inscription, warning of the ancestors is also realized when naming a location. For example Nokoriya which translates as 'the Valley Victim' or Namiwake which means the edge waves.

However, although the memorial stone is spread in almost all Japanese, many also ignored. They ignored the advice of the ancestors and build a house near the beach. And, consequently fatal.

"With the passage of time, people must have forgotten, until another tsunami that killed 10,000 people come over," says author and tsunami expert, Fumio Yamashita.

Phosphorus bombs, explosion Very Beautiful But Deadly Impact
Phosphorus bombs or cool names often called WP (White Phosphorus) or more cool again called Willy Pete. The main purpose of this is the use of WP as a signal to the troops at night and for the purpose of firing or bomb.

Its use is allowed in the war but became illegal when used in the area of population or area that many civilians.Phosphorus bombs
The use of WP has been made since World War I. WP are widely used in the military is a pyrophoric material that is spontaneously combustible, and very active easily react with oxygen.

When the open air in contact with the WP will light and oxidizes into phosphorus pentoxide. The heat generated due to this reaction burst into yellow flame and produces a thick white smoke.

Phosphorus is an element that comes from ancient Greek that is "phosphoros". Found in 1669, exists in allotropic form of white (or yellow), red, and black (or violet). Usually the phosphorus found in the form of a solid white wax, in its original form of phosphorus is colorless and transparent.

Phosphorus bombs

Phosphorus is never found free in nature. Phosphorus is usually contained by a combination of minerals. The source of this WP is the stone of phosphorus which are found in Russia, Morocco, Florida, Utah, Idaho, Tennessee.

Consequences thereof
WP if the human cause burns deep and painful burns that could produce up to penetrate the bone.

The characteristics of the resulting burns seen at the necrotic with yellowish color and smell like garlic. Many believe that this WP burns due to take a long time to heal.
Its on fire because of contact with the open air, making the burning of the skin to be long because as long as WP is still in contact with the air he will continue to burn until the material completely burned out.


Some Facts about the bomb Phosphorus / WP:
Phosphorus bombs

* White phosphorus smoke can cause chemical that can burn the skin to the bone.
* These chemicals react quickly when exposed to oxygen by splashing in the old orange flame.
* In war, these materials are often used as a puff of smoke views, but can also be used as an incendiary which resulted in fatal injuries.
* Phosphorus burns are always on stage two or three because the particles are still burning and the fire did not stop even after contact with skin, until completely discharged. It is sometimes not realized until the injury has reached the bone.

This is the Opportunity for You For the Eternal Human Being


In 1967, a British secret agent "frozen" while waiting for the future in which nemesis riser length in the ice to return to threaten the world.
That time arrived in 1997. Secret agent was brought back after preserved in ice for 30 years to save the world from destruction. Perhaps you recognize the above scenario is in the movie "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery" (1997).

The science that inspired the movie story is real. Science was called kriogenika, namely the study of what happens to materials at very low temperatures.

Krionika, which is a technique used to preserve the human body at very low temperatures in the hope that one day could be raised again, is being developed at this time.

The idea behind krionika is that if a person "dead" due to her illness, she can be "frozen" to then be raised again in the future when medical technology was able to cure the illness was. Someone who is preserved in such a way said to be in a state of suspension krionika.

Stages to undergo suspension krionika:
1. Become a member of a facility krionika and pay membership fees (about $ 400 per year).

2. Declared "legally dead."

3. Emergency response team from the facility come to you, your body is stabilized by way of supplying oxygen through the blood to your brain in sufficient quantities to maintain minimal function of the brain until the time comes for you to be moved to facilities suspension.

4. Your body will be wrapped in ice and injected heparin (a type of anticoagulant / anti-clotting) to prevent your blood clot on his way to the facility krionika. A group of medical teams waiting for the arrival of your body at the facility.

5. Once you arrive at the facility kriogenika, "freezing" the real start soon. Kriogenika facilities can not simply put their patients into a container of liquid nitrogen because it will cause the water contained in frozen cells.

Krionika team must remove water from the cells of your body first and then replace it with glycerol-based chemical mixture called a cryoprotectant (a kind of anti-clotting compound the human body).

6. The next step is to enter your body is then placed into a large metal tank containing liquid nitrogen at a temperature of about -196 degrees Celsius. Your body is stored with the head down position.

7. Because the charges are very expensive, scientists provide an economical way to preserve only your brain. In the hope that one day technology to find a way to clone your body that are not preserved.

It turns out "Alien" Already in the Earth to blend Man

Bulgarian scientists claim, an alien or aliens already in the earth among us. They even claim to have made contact with intelligent beings outside the earth.

"Aliens are among us, and watching us all the time," said scientist Bulgaria, Lachezar Filipov, told Bulgarian media.

They claim to work to solve a series of complex symbols are sent to them. Now they're working on it. It is told by scientists from the Space Research Institute of the Government of Bulgaria.

They claim to have answered 30 questions that have been sent an alien. Lachezar Filipov, deputy director of the Space Research Institute of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, confirms the results of the research.

He said the research center has analyzed the 150 circles in the fields (crop circles) from all over the world. They believe it will answer the question.

"They are not hostile to us. They want to help us, but we have not managed to establish direct contacts with them. "

Mr. Filipov even say, the Vatican agreed that aliens exist.

Humans can not make contact with aliens via radio waves, but through the power of the mind.

"The human race will have direct contact with aliens coming 10-15 years," he said.

"They are critical in human amoral attitudes that interfere with natural processes," he said.

Publications about the aliens was conducted in the midst of debate on the controversial role, feasibility, and reform of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.

Last week, the issue has sparked debate between the Minister of Finance of Bulgaria Simeon Djankov and President Georgi Parvanov.

World's First Library The Super Complete


Library derived from the word "Library" which means the Book or Books. According Sulistyo Basuki in his book Introduction to Library Science says that "limits the library is a room, part of a building, or the building itself that is used for storing books or other publications which are usually stored with the layout of a particular arrangement to use the reader, not to sell . 'So it can be concluded that the library will never be far away from books.
From the above explanation can be understood that the library is very fundamental in education. Because the library is always associated with books, and books will always be associated with science. In the library hall a scientist can look for references discovery - the discovery that found its predecessor, from the library one can develop insight into his thinking, there is also someone can someone can do a small research and observations and then load it back in the form of new or useful information for himself and others. And this is one of history's largest library in the history of the World, He is the Bibliotheca Alexandrina Egypt (Library of Alexandria of Egypt).

The explanation

Bibliotheca Alexandrina Egypt (Library of Alexandria of Egypt) is the first and largest library in the world. The library was even survive for centuries and has a collection of 700,000 papyrus scrolls, even if compared with the Sorbonne Library in the 14th century 'only' has a collection of 1700 books.This library was founded by the successors Ptolemi I Alexander (Alexandria) in the year 323 BC, and continuing through the power Ptolemi III. At that time the rulers of Egypt so besemangat promote the Library and Science, even in manuscript, Rome says that the King of Egypt's royal treasure spent to buy books from all over the country to collect 442,800 books and 90,000 other form of summary is not voluminous.

He also ordered soldiers to search every ship that entered in order to obtain the manuscript. If there is a script that is found, they keep the original and return a copy. According to some sources, when Athens lent manuscripts original Greek classical drama is invaluable to Ptolemy III, he promised to pay the security deposit and copy it. But the king instead save the original, do not take money back guarantee, and return a copy
But the golden story only became history. Is ketuka Roman conquest led by Julius Caesar in 48 BC. The Romans destroyed 400,000 books burned to ash using a useless. World of science was very sorry for having lost one of the best sources of knowledge at that time. But eventually the Emperor, Julius Caesar to apologize, and instead he sent Marx Antonio to award 200,000 books from Rome to the Queen of Egypt at the time, Cleopatra, and from this is their story continues. But the magnificent library which is in Egypt and is never again like old times - the keemasanya.

Since the combustion, the Library Iskadariah solah neglected. In fact, almost become ancient artifacts only. However, UNESCO initiated to cooperate with the Egyptian government, rebuilding the library with the history of the largest in history. And this development began in the 1990s. This development spend no less than U.S. $ 220 million. U.S. 120 million on the responsibility of the government of Egypt and the rest on the responsibility of international assistance from other States. Finally after nearly dormant for 20 Century, Iskandriah Library (Bibliotheca Alexandrina) stands majestic and unique. The main building is round sloping roof, buried in the soil.
In the front roof line, created a pool to neutralize the temperature libraries, consisting of five floors in the ground, this library can contain about 8 million books. But there are currently only 250,000 books and will continue to grow each tahun.Selain it also provides various facilities, such as 500 units of computers in Arabic and English to facilitate the visitors search the catalog of books, reading room with a capacity of 1,700 people, conference rooms, library space Braille Taha Special Husein blind, children's library, museum of ancient manuscripts, five research institutes, and research rooms which can be used free of charge.

And that is also interesting, is the middle floor of the library there and Design Gallery can be viewed from different sides. On the wooden floor that is wide enough that displayed various ancient prototype printing machine and various wall paintings. The library is always full of visitors, while in Alexandria is not much like the university in Cairo. This shows the high interest in reading Egyptian society and the library was destroyed Julius Caesar is now a tourist attraction as one of the Giza Pyramids, Mummies, Karnax Temple, Tombs of the Pharaohs in Luxor or Cairo Museum that holds the Tutankhamun's gold deposits.

Banana Leaf Benefits To Treat Serious Burns


Burns may not enter into the third highest cause of death in Indonesia and the world.
However, extensive burns are often fatal. Many people with the victims of fire or electric shock have been dying when they arrived at the hospital.

The main thing done in dealing with extensive burns is a correction of body fluids and the prevention of infection. Someone who suffered extensive burns, tend to run to and fro to seek help. This will cause the body exposed to wind and evaporation of body fluids getting larger, this situation will end up with dehydration. Therefore, if there are relatives, friends, or family who suffered extensive burns due to fire such a good idea to suggest to stay in place (stop), drop (drop), and roll (roll) for the fire extinguished.

When carrying people affected by burns, do not let them in the open state. We can use a wet blanket to blanket, or according to dr. Moerbono M, Sp.KK can use banana leaves are cleaned first. According to A. Gore and Deepika Madhori Akolekar in his journal, entitled "Evaluation off Banana Leaf Dressing for Partical Thickness Burn Wounds" a banana leaf has many advantages in its use in burns.

Banana leaves to reduce evaporation of liquid because there is a layer of wax. The leaves also creates a cooling sensation on the skin of the body, not attached to the wound, and has a wide surface so that it can cover all parts of the body. In research done by Evi Rohmatun entitled "Physical Properties and Effects Ointment Young Banana Leaf Extract (Musa paradisiaca, Linn) Toward Healing Burns On Skin Rabbit Ridge" young banana leaf extract helps the healing of burns with a significant result.

Therefore, if discovered, such as fire burns victims. Suruhlan the victim stops (stop), drop (drop), and roll (roll). Next selimuti body with banana leaf that has been cleaned with alcohol and NaCl or larikanlah immediately to the nearest hospital to obtain fluid correction and prevention of infection.

The cause of the tsunami

Posted by Mahendra blog



The cause of the tsunami

Tsunamis can occur if an interruption occurs that causes the movement of large amounts of water, such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, landslides or meteorite that fell to earth. However, 90% of the tsunami is an earthquake under the sea. In recording the history of some of the tsunami caused by the volcano eruption, for example when the eruption of Mount Krakatoa.

Vertical movement on the earth's crust, can lead to the ocean floor rise or drop suddenly, which resulted in disruption of water balance that is above them. This resulted in the energy flow of sea water, which when it reached the coast into a large wave that caused the tsunami.

The speed of tsunami waves depends on the depth of the sea where the waves occurs, where the speed can reach hundreds of kilometers per hour. When the tsunami reaches the shore, its speed will be around 50 km / h and its energy is very damaging coastal areas in its path. In the midst of the tsunami wave height sea only a few centimeters to several meters, but when it reaches shore wave height can reach tens of meters due to a buildup of the water. When the tsunami reaches the coast of the mainland will crawl away from the coastline with a range of several hundred meters can even be a few kilometers.

This vertical motion can occur on the earth fault or the fault. The earthquake also occurred in the subduction area, where the oceanic plate menelusup down the continental shelf.

The landslide that occurred on the seabed and volcanic debris can also lead to disruption of sea water which can generate a tsunami. The earthquake caused perpendicular movement of the earth layer. As a result, the sea rose and fell abruptly so that the balance of sea water which is above them disturbed. Similarly, cosmic objects or meteor that fell from above. If the size of a meteor or landslide is big enough, can occur megatsunami reach hundreds of meters high.

The quake that caused tsunami

* An earthquake centered in the middle of the sea and shallow (0-30 km)
* An earthquake with a strength of at least 6.5 on the Richter Scale
* An earthquake with a pattern of reverse fault or fault down

Gagra, Heaven Changing World Becoming Ghost Town

Gagra, a city located in the Black Sea Coast is a paradise that turned into a ghost town now. In days of old, complete with luxury homes Gagra like a paradise with a very pleasant climate where there are the royal palace and various forms of buildings which come from all over Europe.



The park is filled with tropical trees to animals such as parrots and monkeys that were brought specifically to Gagra to create the impression of exotic in the area, really makes Gagra as an earthly paradise.

But unfortunately this earthly paradise must collapse because of the war that occurred in 1992-1993 between Abkhazia and Georgia so that Gagra was turned into rubble and eventually become like a ghost town like what you see today.

It's really redundant. If there are interested in building this city again, maybe Gagra could turn into a paradise of the world again with housing, luxury housing around it.
