reason why the ant stops when it encounters with other ants


At a meeting with ants ants ants was actually more like a human being bumped. Ants that collided head on the spot they're actually communicate between each other. A researcher or scientist named Theodore Christian Schneirla at the University of New York City had conducted experiments on ants communicate with each other by taking an ant is taken and then put into place that contains the food.
Then other ants put in place that contains enemy ants. Then the ants are in the observed behavior as well as the ants that ran into the other ants in the way when communicating.

From the research it Schneirla mention that the chemicals released from food or from enemy ants were attached to the ants. So, when he met with his friend ant, the ants would greet each other (touching). Well, with this greet each other chemicals from the ants would tell his friend (via an antenna on the head ant) whether there is food in the surrounding environment or there is an enemy.

10 Einstein's advice on successful living


1. Continue to follow your Curiosity

"I do not have a special talent. Just always enjoyed a sense of curiosity. "

Reading Einstein quote above makes me wonder what curiosity like that? I always wondered why some people succeed, while many others fail, and therefore I spent much time reading a lot of material. Figuring out the connection of things against the word 'success'.

Pursuing answers your curiosity is the secret key kesukesan.


2. Diligent's Without Price

"I am not clever, it may be said only last longer face the problem."

Imagine a turtle in the middle of the mountain jungle, while he wants to the beach. Or, if you setekun mango buds continuously grow, develop and eventually bear fruit?

There's a nice phrase popular among postal workers, 'a sheet of stamps to be valuable only because when he was attached to the letter to him to the goal'.

Be like a postage stamp, finish what you started.



3. The focus at this time

"A man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl, do not actually give the award deserve to kiss it."

Einstein really talking about the kiss you? Ah, that's just the term alone, But I want a story about what happened when I keep the durian orchard in the garden. So many monkeys like to wait and brushing me off guard at the tree ripe durian. My father said I would not be able to shoot two monkeys at a time. My understanding of his words was, 'I can do many things, but not all things at once'. Learning to 'be here, right now'; pay attention to what you are doing.

Focused energy is a source of strength. That's the difference between success and failure.



4. Imagination is power

"Imagination is everything. Imagination is towing the future. Imagination is more important than knowledge "

Einstein expression is well known. Do you imagine every day? Imagination is more important than knowledge! Imagination plays an early stage in the life of your future performances. Again, Einstein said, "Signs kejeneniusan really is not knowledge but imagination."

Again, if you are already exercising the muscles of your imagination every day? Do not let those muscles become emaciated and sickly. Life without imagination as to follow the flow of the river, following the resignation of any will and where it goes. Not have any power over any of the options you wish. Pathetic.



5. Make Mistakes

"A person who never makes mistakes never actually tried anything new."

Einstein was never afraid of mistakes. No need to allergies with errors. Note well, TORT not FAILURE. Two things were different. Mistakes can help you get better, faster, smarter-if you use it right of course.

Look for something new-something smells of new-from your mistakes. As has been spelled out previously, if you want to succeed, learn more from your mistakes.



6. Living in the moment

"I never think of the future-it will come shortly."

The only way to make your life better in the future is alive and well in the present. Ah, again the wise advice for dealing with the exact time by a quantum physicist Einstein.

Very unlikely to change because it happened yesterday. You can do now is change your perspective about yesterday NOW to make it better. You also can not change for the better tomorrow, unless you do the best at this time.

The problem is just about the time, and time is never going anywhere really



7. Regard yourself

"Strive not to be successful, but to become more valuable."

No need lah worked hard to become more success. Take your time to raise your self-worth. If you're really worth, success will come up to you. Does Einstein work harder to succeed? I think he's only continuously investing to improve the value itself. Success came himself to him.

Recognize the talents and blessings of His grace to you. Learn to hone them to be more sharp, use to give maximum benefit to others banyaknyak.

Work to be valued, success will chase you. Are diamonds cost the same as gravel? You've got the answer Both have different pressures so that the distinguishing value.



8. Do not expect different results

"Insanity: is doing things the same way over and over again and expecting different results."

Einstein sage advice above is my favorite you should not expect better results if you still persist in a way that you wear now. Put differently, you dream to expect your biceps to become more 'sexy' if still lift light weights continuously.

If you want your life to change, you must change. Changing ways of thinking, perspectives and ways of doing things. When you change your mind, change your perspective, change your actions, your life will change by itself.

Guys, imagine the following: There is a sweet girl right in front of you. Compare the following two actions. First, you smile, the girl's reaction is to smile back. Second, you glared at him, can guess what the reaction in the girl?



9. Knowledge honed through experience

"Information is not knowledge. The only source of knowledge is experience. "

Einstein agreed sir, I do not dare deny the father's advice above. You are more experienced than me
That knowledge comes from experience. You can discuss a project; but the discussion will only give you information. You have to do the project to 'know' whether the project is running correctly or not. You have to do to address the emerging problems in the middle of project implementation. It makes you have a new and rewarding experience.

What Einstein's message? Look for the experience! Do not spend your time watching soap operas while you love desperately wanted a boyfriend, for example out of your world now and invaluable experience waiting for you out there.



10. Understand the Rules of The Game, Then Play Better

"You must understand the rules of the game. Then you have to play better than other players. "

For Einstein, he quite understands the basic rules of physics and think and work better than other physicists. Simply put, you simply do two things only.

First, you have to do is to understand the 'rules' how do you do it. Second, do the job better than anyone else. If you are able to do two things well, success must go into your pocket

Well, that was 10 quote Albert Einstein's sage advice and a free translation by me Hope can be useful to be an inspiration and make life more wisely.

Radiation in Cigarettes Known Since 1959 But Hidden


Los Angeles, In addition to hundreds of nicotine and other harmful toxins, cigarettes also contain a radioactive substance called alpha ions. The presence of hazardous substances is claimed to be already known by the tobacco industry, but hidden for 42 years.

Startling claim is submitted by researchers from the University of California at Los Angeles and published in the journal Nicotine and Tobacco Research. The researchers revealed that after learning the secret documents from the tobacco industry since 1998.

One of the documents mentioned, the presence of radioactive material in cigarettes had known five years earlier than expected so far. In the early 1960s, the tobacco industry quietly been doing in-depth investigation related to the possibility of a radiation element.

"The tobacco industry has been aware of a radioactive substance in cigarettes since 1959. They knew that trigger cancer, but hid that fact for years," said Hrayr S Karagueuzian, professor of cardiology who led the study as quoted from Indiavision, Friday (30 / 9 / 2011).

Not only that, the document also shows that during the tobacco industry tried to obscure the facts about the radiation dangers of secondhand smoke and health. The results of the investigation of ion dangerous alpha should not be publicized.

Radioactive elements in tobacco, is derived from natural minerals in the soil and fertilizer use. One element that releases ions polonium alpha is, the level of radiation was mentioned 7 times larger than the X-ray

Radiation effects in cigarette smoke can accumulate, and then in the long run will lead to lung damage or even cancer. Not only active smokers who could be affected, passive smokers, or even third hand smoker also threatened his health.

6 phenomenon in the Ocean Most Mysterious


1. Bermuda triangle 
This name is most widely known in recent decades due to the many mysterious events in the region covering millions of square kilometers and was among the three regions, namely the Bermuda Islands, Puerto Rico, and Fort Lauderdale.

Names of famous Bermuda Triangle began when one fighter squadron of five Navy torpedo bombers, disappeared on December 5, 1945. Up to now 14 bodies of the crew and the ship wreck was not found. According to the data, until now at least 50 ships and aircraft reported missing in the area.

In the 1980s, loss of reputation mystical Bermuda Triangle because it is no longer 'eat' anything that came on it. Nevertheless, a number of theories have attempted to uncover the mystery, both in terms of pseudoscience, the paranormal, to UFOs. But. The most convincing theory is put forward Joseph Monaghan of Monash University. In 2003, scientists are writing an article in the American Journal of Physics. The title, 'Methane Bubbles Could Drowning Ship?'

According to Monaghan, large bubbles can be formed from deposits of solid methane - which is known as gas hydrates. To note methane gas can condense in the BAWAG great pressure on the sea. Ice-like methane deposits can be broken, changed the gas, and creates bubbles in the surface water. The concentration of gas that escape can cause damage to electronic equipment on board aircraft. Not only that, the ship could sink in that location because of the reduced density (density) of water suddenly.

Another phenomenon in the Bermuda Triangle called the Flying Dutchman - the mysterious disappearance of the crew. Scientific theories offered to explain the loss of the sailors. Ie infrasound. Some scientists believe that infrasound generated when methane gas bubbles rising to the surface.

Infrasound vibrations trigger a dangerous resonance in the heart and blood vessels. At that time, humans are exposed can be stricken with panic. This is probably what makes the sailors panicked and jumped overboard - to escape the strange feeling that befall him.

However, no one theory that explains, why in the mid-1980s, the Bermuda Triangle stop devouring ships and aircraft. Perhaps because of advances in technology of aircraft and ships.

2. Sargasso sea

Many people equate the Sargasso Sea in the Bermuda Triangle. Though the waters are located in the southeast of the Bermuda Triangle in the Atlantic Ocean. There is some uniqueness in the region. Ocean moves in a clockwise direction, artifacts Sargassum algae in it.

It has a giant ocean eddies which have their own rules. The temperature outside the vortex is much higher than its exterior. A number of people who sail over there said he saw a mirage: for example, the Sun rises in the East and West at the same time.

Richard Sylvester of the University of Western Australia argues, is a centrifugal vortex Sargasso giant - which then creates a small vortex that reaches the bermuda triangle. This raises the cyclonic vortex small mini in the air - is strong enough to injure a small plane.

3. Devil's Sea
ni is the area in the Pacific, around the island of Miyake - 100 kilometers south of Tokyo. 'Brother' Bermuda Triangle can not be found on any map, but the sailors chose to avoid it. Storms can appear suddenly and disappear just as suddenly. Whales, dolphins, birds do not even live in the area. Nine ships disappear within five years in the 1950s. The most famous is the disappearance of the Kaiyo Maru No.5, the Japanese research vessel.

Sea Devils are a very active seismic region. Sea floor in constant motion. Volcanic islands appear and disappear regularly. This region is also known to be very active siklonnya activity.

4. Cape of Hope
 This area is also known as the Cape of Storms. Large ships sunk in the period of hundreds of years. Most of the ships were destroyed because of bad weather, especially the deadly waves, or 'cape roller'. Scientists call this solitary wave - which can reach 30 meters high, in truth consists of two waves that merge into one.

Giant waves it creates a large cavity, whose height is only slightly lower than the wave. Although this wave phenomenon can occur in other seas, but the Cape of Good Hope area in the most danger.

 
5. Eastern Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf
This area is known phenomenon that is very impressive and mysterious: a giant halo circling in the water.

German oceanographer, Kurt Kahle believes, that phenomenon is the result of the earthquake under the sea, causing plankton luminescence. Then arose the movement such as rotation of the wheel. However, this hypothesis is drawn criticism lately because it has not been able to explain the transformation secaralogis halos. Modern science also has not been able to explain the perfect circle shape object. Therefore, emerging new theory which is more absurd: the UFO.

6. maelstrom 
Although not too impressive as a whirlpool in the Sargasso Sea. But the sailors know about the amazing phenomenon of the vortex of this type. Whirlpool comes two times a day, in the northwestern part of the Norwegian Sea The word 'Maelstrom' was popularized by Edgar Alan Poe. Maelstrom is the water that spin a strong and large. Surface water from the vortex lebihrendah tens of meters from the sea. Its strength dozens of times higher than normal currents.

The strange, swirling in the opposite direction changed every three to four months. It could happen anywhere, including the Bermuda Triangle. Believed, the vortex rotates counter-clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the southern parts of the earth.

Of the total water content above 45 l, about 30 l contained in our cells (intracellular), while 15 l is outside the cell (ektraseluler). Which includes water outside the cell is water in the fluid of the brain, eyes and nasal fluids, including fluids of the gastrointestinal tract.

According to another source, the water content in the brain 83%, renal 82%, cardiac 79%, lung 80%, 22% bone, and blood 90%. When the water content in each organ is maintained as needed, then the organ will remain healthy. Conversely, if declining, its function will also be decreased and more easily disturbed by bacteria, viruses, etc.. So you can imagine how big the role of water in our bodies.

Fortunately, the human body has a mechanism in maintaining the balance of the incoming water intake and expenditure. Thirst was on every person is a normal mechanism in maintaining the water intake in the body. Water bodies require approximately 2 to 2.5 l (8-10 cups) per day. Total water demand is already including the water intake from food (such as soup, soup, etc.), beverages such as milk, tea, coffee, syrups etc.. In addition, water intake was also obtained from the metabolism of food consumed and tissue metabolism in the body.

Importance of water intake per day, can also be seen from a certain amount of water removed from the body every day through several mechanisms. There is through urine, feces, sweat, and also through the respiratory tract.

The amount of water released by the body through the urine of about 1 l / day. If the number of stools in healthy people spent about 50 - 400 g / day, the water content of about 60-90% weight of stools or about 50-60 ml of water a day.

Meanwhile, water is wasted through sweating and respiratory tract in the daily maximum of 1 l, depending on the temperature of the surrounding air. Not to mention the expenditure of factors of water through breathing. Someone who has a fever, the water content in the breath will increase. Conversely, the amount of water that is inhaled through the breathing air is reduced due to low humidity surroundings.

Our bodies will deteriorate if the water content decreases and the charging less rapidly implemented. Obviously, because there is a very close relationship between quality and water content in the body with our body's response.

Dr. James M. Rippe, a cardiologist from the U.S. suggest to drink at least 1 l more than what is needed our thirst. Because the loss of only 4% of the liquid will result in a reduction of our performance as much as 22%! It is understandable if lost 7%, we will begin to feel weak and lethargic.

The more we do the activity, more water will drain from the body. Moreover, people living in tropical countries where more energy is expended. Therefore, health experts warn not to drink only when thirsty. Lots of drinking habits, whether it is hungry or not, is a healthy habit!

That means, working in air-conditioned room also requires us to drink more, even if not thirsty. Because, in air-conditioned room we will more quickly become dehydrated. That much to drink will help the skin does not dry quickly is important to note not only by those who daily work in air-conditioned room, but also by those working in the room where the temperature is not fixed. The temperature up and down causing the room humidity is also uncertain. With drinking water will help neutralize the influence of such changes.

Water is also "sweep" the dirt in your body that will be faster out through urine. For those who want to slim down the body too, drink warm water before eating (making it feel somewhat satisfied) is one way to reduce the amount of food intake. Moreover the water contains no calories, sugar, or fat. However, it is best to drink water at medium temperature, not too hot, nor too cold.

uric acid



Uric acid is the result of metabolism in the body, whose levels should not be excessive. Uric acid crystals have a shape that is the end result of purine metabolism, which is one basic organic compounds that make up nucleic acids (acids of the cell nucleus) and included in the group of amino acids, the building-blocks of proteins.

Everyone has uric acid in the body, because on any normal metabolism of uric acid produced. Normally, uric acid will be expelled from the body through the stool (feces) and urine, but because the kidneys are unable to remove uric acid that is causing rising levels in the body. Another thing that can increase uric acid levels is we consume too many foods that contain lots of purines. Excess uric acid will then be collected in the joints, causing pain or swelling.

Food sources of animal products usually contain very tinggi.Produk purine foods contain high purine less good for certain people, who have talent impaired uric acid. If you eat these foods without any calculation, the amount of purines in the body can bypass the normal threshold.

Some types of foods and beverages that are known to increase levels of uric acid is an alcohol, hearing fish, eggs and offal. Hearings or similar fish (sardines), and organ meats are a source of potential compounds. Are classified as offal is not only the intestine but all other parts contained in the stomachs of animals - such as liver, heart, tripe, and spleen. Consumption of viscera aggravate the enzyme to process the purine hypoxanthine. As a result many of the rest of uric acid in the blood, which is shaped granules and accumulate around the joint so that creates a feeling very ill.

Normal Levels of Uric Acid

Uric acid levels can be measured in two ways, enzymatic and Engineering Ordinary. Normal uric acid levels by an enzymatic test a maximum of 7 mg / dl. While the technique Ordinary, normal values ​​up to 8 mg / dl. Uric acid levels above normal is called hyperuricemia.

Normal uric acid levels in men and women differently. Normal uric acid levels in men ranged from 3.5 to 7 mg / dl and in women from 2.6 to 6 mg / dl.

Disease Uric Acid (Gout)

Someone said to suffer from uric acid (gout) if the conditions meet certain requirements and usually once a classical course of their illness, such as having the typical symptoms of gout, uric acid found in high levels in their blood, and the results of microscopic examination of joint fluid or tofus (lumps of uric acid ) found uric acid crystals in the form of needles.

Gout (gout) is classified into primary gout and gout secondary.

In primary gout, 99 percent of the cause is unknown (idiopathic). Allegedly associated with a combination of genetic factors and hormonal factors that cause metabolic disorders that may result in increased production of uric acid or it could be caused due to the reduced spending of uric acid from the body.

Secondary gout is caused partly because of the increased production of uric acid because of the nutrients, ie foods with high purine levels.

Increased production of uric acid could also be due to diseases of the blood (bone marrow disease, polycythemia), drugs (alcohol, drug-cancer drug, vitamin B12). Other causes are obesity (overweight), skin diseases (psoriasis), high triglyceride levels. In people with diabetes are not well controlled levels normally contained ketone bodies (a waste product of fat metabolism) is elevated. Ketone bodies are elevated will also cause elevated uric acid.

Arthritis due to an increase in blood uric acid levels with arthritis called gout or arthritis arthritis. Acute gouty arthritis is caused by an inflammatory reaction of tissues to the formation of urate crystals. In most cases of gout history of the disease and the clinical picture is specific, so sometimes the diagnosis can be directly enforced.

Infection in the tooth root and supporting tooth dijaringan daro involving more 350 kinds of bacteria and microorganisms. Because the location of the infection is very close to blood vessels, bacterial products in the form of the toxin can spread throughout the body.

Bacteria from the mouth (oral bacteria) when entering the veins will stick to the deposition of fat in the arteries of the heart and will lead to clots that cause coronary heart disease, inflammation of muscles and heart valves (endocarditis). All that, inhibiting blood flow and distribution of food resources and oxygen to the heart, so the heart does not function properly.

Early symptoms may include chest pain, such as burning, pressure, and heavy loads on the left chest to the left arm, neck, chin and shoulders. Chest pain was also felt in the middle chest didikuti nausea, vomiting, dizziness, cold sweat, leg and arm became cold, and shortness of breath feels.

Research shows that people who suffer from dental disease have a risk 2 times higher risk of coronary heart disease than those without. And people who have been diagnosed with stroke are generally more likely to have an infection in his mouth.
