What is the dark side of the Moon?

To tell the truth there is no dark side of the moon. Even though we always see the same side of the moon it doesn't mean that the other side always stays in the dark. People say to mystify the moon that 'It has the dark side which we will never see.'

'We will never see' part is true from the perspective of a person who is on earths surface but the 'Dark side' part is a pure myth. Moons other side does not always stays dark. But why we can see only one side of the moon from earth? It's because the speed at which moon rotates has led to this particular phenomenon. Millions of years ago moons rotational speed was much faster but the gravitational influence of the earth slowed it down much like moons gravity effects the tides in the ocean.

This influence led to slowed rotation period of of the moon to match that of its orbit which is 27.3 days. Lets say if the moon didn't spin at all then it would have eventually shown its other side to the earth while moving around earth in orbit. But since moons rotational period is exactly the same as the orbital period, the same portion of the moons sphere is always visible to earthlings.

The other side of the moon is referred to as the dark side because many people mistakenly thinks that the other side never receives light from the sun. And the fact is that the moon is rotating on its own axis and there is no area on our moon which is permanently dark.

Super Samurai of Japan!

When we think about super heroes the first thing that comes into our mind is super human abilities. There are very few persons in the world who has the gift of super human abilities. One of them is Isao Machii.

Isao Machii is a Japanese citizen and an Laido Master. Lives in Kawanishi, Hyogo, Japan. He holds many Records is Guinness World Records. Dr. Ramani Durvasula saw him cut a pellet from a BB gun in half and said these words.

"This is about processing it at an entirely different sensory level because he is not visually processing it. This is a different level of anticipatory processing. Something so procedural, something so fluid for him."

This indicates and extraordinary level of perception and reaction expected from a human. The size of pellet is less than 4.5 mm. If you want to cut this pellet on a chopping board without holding it, is a big challenge yet alone when fired from a BB gun.

Is this Genetic or honed skill, I believe he is just as human as we are but with much more determination in whatever he does. it's a honed skill through years of practice and persistence. I have to say his powers are not gift but it is an earned ability.

Few Amazing Architects of Nature.

Nature is filled with amazing architects with hard-wired abilities. Even if we call ourselves more advanced but the truth is we still cannot build the things which are built by these below shown animals animals. They are Amazing Architects in nature adapted themselves to nature in there unique way. Lets take a Look.

Weaver birds Nests.

They their name because of their elaborately woven nests. Many species of weavers are highly gregarious. The nesting colonies of the Weaver are among the largest bird-created structures. These colonies may contain up to 300 chambers (one per pair) and span upto 25 feet width and 5 feet height.

Termite mound in Australia. 

They were the first things that came to mind when asked this question. They grow as much as 9 meters high, and some (like this one) bear a spooky resemblance to cathedrals or Disney-fied medieval castles. Different species build distinctly different mounds.

They are elaborate nests. They often begin as tree stumps. They provide a safe shelter for the termites, and may also assist in conserving water and keeping the insects cool.

Caddisfly Larvae

Caddisfly larvae create armor to protect themselves by grabbing what ever is near by and binding around themselves using self produced silk to bind the materials together.  Some artists have taken advantage of the unique way that the larvae put together their armor and the fact that they will use anything that is around them to make it.  The artists will leave gold flakes,  turquoise, rubies, and other gems for the larvea to use and the will create what is now known as Caddisfly jewelry.

The cocooned trees in Pakistan After the floods

These Spider Webs are really fascinating. An unexpected side-effect of the flooding in the Sindh province of Pakistan has been that millions of spiders climbed up into the trees to escape from the rising waters. Because of the scale of the flooding and the fact that the water has taken so long to recede, many trees have become cocooned in spiders webs.

Ant colonies

It is one of the most amazing thing created by very small creatures.

Ant colony is an underground lair of chambers connected to each other and the surface by tunnels. Worker ants build and maintain these colonies.

These colonies can span to many kilometers. In 2000, an enormous supercolony of Argentine ants was found in Southern Europe (report published in 2002). Of 33 ant populations nested along the 6,004-kilometre (3,731 mi) stretch along the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts in Southern Europe, 30 belonged to one supercolony with estimated millions of nests and billions of workers, interspersed with three populations of another supercolony[Ant colony].

Puffer Fish Circles

Created by 5 inch long pufferfish, this 7 foot diameter formation is designed to attract a mate and have her lay eggs in the center.

When your kitchen loses its virginity...

There is nothing sexual here, I am talking about the first time when a kitchen that is being used to cook the same old kinds of food for years suddenly get to make a different type of continental delicacy even though there is an absence of proper tools and utensils for it.  You are left with confusing decisions because of it and mostly end up in a frustrating failure. Some can be downright dangerous and may cause an explosion and/or severe burns. Cooking is technically a chemical process. You are undertaking a chemical reaction. You may not get the desired results even after spending a great deal of time standing near the fire. Without proper tools and utensils, the right temperature, and pressure will not happen and the chemical reaction will not be properly initiated/maintained.

The prime example in most Indian kitchens is baking a cake. You see, traditional Indian cuisine don't require an oven, even a tandoor is seldom used. Fire top cooking is the norm. So in the absence of an oven and in constant pursuit of trying out something new, some brilliant Indian discovered a method called "cooker cakes". You pour the cake batter in the tin, place a trivet inside a cooker, place the tin above it and then proceed to how you cook rice in them, sans water. 

The process actually work pretty neat with a nicely spongy and crusty top cake. But the waterless cooking destroys the cooker on the long run. Its not designed for dry heat. It looses its shape and pressure sealing ability and may explode in the future.

A few years back, when OTGs became cheap and more energy efficient, my parents bought a smart Morphy Richards one that was pretty easy to operate and does it's job pretty well. This was followed by a few months spend on purchasing baking vessels and other equipment. I found a new interest in baking. 

In my blog language, I would say this as an upgrade rather than a rape. My kitchen lost its virginity more than a decade back when we tried making jellies from gelatin.

Religlious reasons aside, my household was a strict no no on pork and alcohol and any "exotic meats" for that matter. I realised it was all sort of a huge drama when I was 11. OK, I won't go details regarding that here.

The OTG purchase opened a whole new world of great continental cooking, most of the things I tried came out pretty well.

Then, having read everything good about Bacon, I baked some in the oven. It was the first time anything pork was being prepared in my house's 33 years of history. It was like a second rape. The house was filled with rather amazing aroma of baking pork. I had it alot, my dad ate a little but he liked it and mom didn't take even a single bite. 

I felt this event was even more serious, I felt everything in the house making a melancholic look for me breaking a tradition, since the aroma was spreading everywhere in the house. I felt the house had lost a second virginity this time.

But what the heck? Its your house and you are paying the gas and electricity bill! Let the flavors and aromas dance in the kitchen floor! Alas, all the world cuisine we know originated from someone's kitchen breaking a tradition!

How to make glowsticks!!!

As most of know, glow sticks are pieces of plastic tubes that, when activated, produces light that lasts for hours. It has several applications including signalling, recreation and lighting for campers, military and police. They create negligible heat and are non-flammable and hence safe to use in virtually all types of conditions.

So geeks like us, unsatisfied by the single-usability of them, may wonder what if we could make one on our own!

The property of producing light through a chemical reaction is known as Chemiluminescence. These reactions chiefly constitute a a few chemicals and a chemiluminescent dye. The chemicals react with each other and provide energy to the dye, this in turn activates it to a quantum high energy state. Since the dye cannot remain in that state they immediately returns to its former low energy state and a photon is released in the process. This free photons is what makes the glow appearance.

Commercial glow sticks usually has a chemical called TCPO as the starter and a mix of stabilizers and bases. There are a multitude of dyes that decide what colour to be produced for the use. Finally Hydrogen peroxide initiates the reaction and immediately light is produced. Glow sticks come premixed with these chemicals inserted with a glass tube filled with hydrogen peroxide. You have to manually bend the tube to break the glass tube inside releasing hydrogen peroxide in the process and activating the reaction. That's the cracking sound you hear. Hydrogen peroxide and the rest of the chemicals have different densities so you have to break the glass tube entirely and mix the solution vigorously to produce the maximum and a uniform output. 

So can we make these glow "solutions" ourselves? The answer is: YES!!!

NurdRage has come up with a tutorial video to make these chemical solutions yourselves including the quantity of chemicals you need to purchase. Check it out:

 He has also made another video to make TCPO on your own if its unavailable in your area. 

Let me tell you that all of these are not regular household chemicals. Its practically a waste of money to buy these reagents in bulk. Hey! At least you can impress your friends in a party or something yes??? Play it safe.

BOOTSTRAP PARADOX!!! Understand the Ending of 'Interstellar'.

Paradox as per Wikipedia

"A statement or proposition which, despite sound (or apparently sound) reasoning from acceptable premises, leads to a conclusion that seems logically unacceptable or self-contradictory."

You might have seen 'Interstellar' movie which was released in 2014. For many the movie was too hard to understand, while watching the movie the question may arise that if the future humans and cooper saves humanity then how could they exists in the future if cooper hasn't yet saved humanity. This can be fairly defined by the Bootstrap Paradox.

This paradox signifies that an information and an object can exist without being ever created.The object or piece of information is sent back in time where it is retrieved and to become the very object or piece of information that was brought back in the beginning.

Lets think about the scenario when a person travels back in time to give an iPhone to Steve Jobbs then he re engineers it and release it in the market few years after and the  same comes to you then you go back to Steve jobs taking the same phone all over again. It is a loop without origin because we cannot find from where did the iPhone came into existence. The Steve Jobbs did not invented it, you did not invented it then the question is 'who did?'

How could you define the origin of water in the below illustration?
Here some more examples:

• A professor travels forward in time, and reads in a physics journal about a new equation that was recently derived. He travels back to his own time, and relates it to one of his students who writes it up, and the article is published in the same journal which the professor reads in the future.

• An old woman gives a young man a watch; the young man then goes back in time and hands the watch to a young woman; she later grows into the older woman who hands the watch to him. The watch therefore has no point of origin.

• A man travels back in time and falls in love with and marries a woman, who he later learns was his own mother, who then gives birth to him. He is therefore his own father, creating a closed loop in his ancestry and giving him no origin for his paternal genetic material.

It has no plausible explaination or sollution at all at all.

Definitions of love.

"Joe Black: So that's what love is according to William Parrish?

William Parrish: Multiply it by infinity, and take it to the depth of forever, and you will still have barely a glimpse of what I'm talking about."

There are no functional definition for love but only philosophical one which may or may not accepted by everyone. The above conversation was between Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins in the movie Meet Joe Black and to be honest that's exactly love's definition we know when it happens to us but cannot understand or define it. There are few definitions of love by famous writers which are given below,

Kurt Vonnegut, The Sirens of Titan:

"A purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved."

Anaïs Nin, in A Literate Passion: Letters of Anaïs Nin & Henry Miller, 1932-1953:

"What is love but acceptance of the other, whatever he is."

Stendhal in his fantastic 1822 treatise on love:
 

"Love is like a fever which comes and goes quite independently of the will. … there are no age limits for love."

C. S. Lewis, who was a very wise man, in The Four Loves:

"There is no safe investment. To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly be broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket — safe, dark, motionless, airless – it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. The alternative to tragedy, or at least to the risk of tragedy, is damnation. The only place outside Heaven where you can be perfectly safe from all the dangers and perturbations of love is Hell."

Lemony Snicket in Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can’t Avoid:

"Love can change a person the way a parent can change a baby — awkwardly, and often with a great deal of mess."

Susan Sontag,  As Consciousness Is Harnessed to Flesh: Journals and Notebooks, 1964-1980:

"Nothing is mysterious, no human relation. Except love."

Charles Bukowski, who also famously deemed love “a dog from hell,” in this archival video interview:

"Love is kind of like when you see a fog in the morning, when you wake up before the sun comes out. It’s just a little while, and then it burns away… Love is a fog that burns with the first daylight of reality."

Shakespeare in A Midsummer Night’s Dream:

"Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind."

Ambrose Bierce, with the characteristic wryness of The Devil’s Dictionary:

"Love, n. A temporary insanity curable by marriage."

Katharine Hepburn in Me : Stories of My Life:

"Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get — only with what you are expecting to give — which is everything."

Philosopher and mathematician Bertrand Russell, he of great wisdom, in The Conquest of Happiness:

"Of all forms of caution, caution in love is perhaps the most fatal to true happiness."

Fyodor Dostoyevsky puts it even more forcefully in The Brothers Karamazov:

"What is hell? I maintain that it is the suffering of being unable to love."   

Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins in a letter to his ten-year-old daughter explaining the importance of evidence in science and in life:

"People sometimes say that you must believe in feelings deep inside, otherwise you’d never be confident of things like ‘My wife loves me’. But this is a bad argument. There can be plenty of evidence that somebody loves you. All through the day when you are with somebody who loves you, you see and hear lots of little titbits of evidence, and they all add up. It isn't purely inside feeling, like the feeling that priests call revelation. There are outside things to back up the inside feeling: looks in the eye, tender notes in the voice, little favors and kindnesses; this is all real evidence."

Paulo Coelho in The Zahir: A Novel of Obsession:

"Love is an untamed force. When we try to control it, it destroys us. When we try to imprison it, it enslaves us. When we try to understand it, it leaves us feeling lost and confused."

James Baldwin in The Price of the Ticket: Collected Non-fiction, 1948-1985:

"Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up."

Haruki Murakami in Kafka on the Shore:

"Anyone who falls in love is searching for the missing pieces of themselves. So anyone who’s in love gets sad when they think of their lover. It’s like stepping back inside a room you have fond memories of, one you haven’t seen in a long time."

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in Airman’s Odyssey: Night Flight / Wind Sand & Stars / Flight to Arras:

"Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction."

Honoré de Balzac, who knew a thing or two about all-consuming love, in Physiologie Du Mariage:

"The more one judges, the less one loves."

Louis de Bernières in Corelli’s Mandolin:

"Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion, it is not the desire to mate every second minute of the day, it is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every cranny of your body. No, don’t blush, I am telling you some truths. That is just being “in love”, which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident."

E. M. Forster in A Room with a View:

"You can transmute love, ignore it, muddle it, but you can never pull it out of you. I know by experience that the poets are right: love is eternal."

English novelist Iris Murdoch, cited by the great Milton Glaser in How to Think Like a Great Graphic Designer:

"Love is the very difficult understanding that something other than yourself is real."

Agatha Christie who gave a good one, who echoes Anaïs Nin above in her autobiography:

"It is a curious thought, but it is only when you see people looking ridiculous that you realize just how much you love them."

'Sink Holes' A Very Dangerous Phenomena.

You might have seen in the movies in which earth suddenly opens up and eats up whole building or cars. But this can actually happen because of a phenomena called Sink Holes. Sink hole are different than just holes in ground they can big and deep. 

The formation of sink holes is directly related to the water. It is formed due to exposure to water. There are two parts to a sink formation viz. type of rock underlying the soil(The soil is called overburden which is topmost layer.) and Acidic water which seeps into bedrock. The sink holes are prominent where the underlying rocks are formed of minerals like gypsum, salt, limestone, dolomite or other carbonate classes of rocks.

It starts with acidic water interaction with the bedrock slowly eroding it. The water becomes acidic when it absorbs carbon dioxide which makes carbonic acid. As this water erodes it creates conduits or underground tunnels for water. Sometimes even lack of water causes sink holes because if the water body in the underground cavern which was holding the earth above depletes then there we have a sink hole.

Sink Holes Are common in United States of America. Sink holes can be attributed to humans too. A broken pipe weakening its surrounding pipe by injecting excess water and thus creating a sink hole.
