Why is the sky blue?

Sunlight is made up of all the colors of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. The gas molecules in the atmosphere interact with the sunlight before the light reaches our eyes.
The gas molecules in the atmosphere scatter the higher-energy (high frequency) blue portion of the sunlight more than they scatter the lower-energy red portion of the sunlight (this is called Rayleigh scattering, named for the physicist Lord John Rayleigh). The Sun appears reddish-yellow and the sky surrounding the Sun is colored by the scattered blue waves.
When the Sun is lower in the horizon (near sunrise or sunset), the sunlight must travel through a greater thickness of atmosphere than it does when it is overhead, and even more light is scattered (not just blue, but also green, yellow, and orange) before the light reaches your eyes. This makes the sun look much redder.

Caution: Never stare directly at the Sun.

googolplex:

A googol is a 1 with a hundred zeroes behind it, or 10^100. A googolplex is a 1 with a googol zeroes behind it, or 10^10^100.

There is not enough time in your lifetime to write the standard form of a googolplex.

The Roper Poll

Many Wonder What Government Really Knows About Other Intelligent
LifeGovernment Has More Information Than It is Sharing with Public...More than half (55 percent) of all adults say that the government does not share enough information with the public. Younger Americans are more apt to believe this; a clear difference of opinion exists between the 18-to-49-year-olds and those 50 or older.
Individuals with an interest and belief in — not to mention personal experience with — extraterrestrial or UFO encounters feel that the government has more information than it is sharing.

Most Americans (53 percent) say that their level of trust in the U.S. government has remained stable over the past five years. Three in ten (29 percent) claim they trust the government less than they did five years ago....Particularly With Respect to Extraterrestrial Life and UFOsMore than two-thirds of Americans say that the government is not telling the public everything it knows about UFO activity (72 percent) or extraterrestrial life (68 percent).The younger the adult, the more likely he/she is to believe that the government is withholding information about UFOs or other intelligent life.

Not surprisingly, those who believe and take an interest in extraterrestrial life and UFO activity are significantly more inclined to believe that the government does not share everything it knows about these topics.

Government Should Be Sharing This Information with PublicSix in ten adults believe that information regarding UFO sightings (60 percent) and extraterrestrial life (58 percent) should be declassified if national security is not at risk. Another one in ten says it depends upon the situation.Opinions vary depending on sex and age. Males are significantly more inclined to say that such information should not be kept classified, whereas females are more likely than males to claim they don't know or it depends on the situation.With respect to age, adults 65 or older are significantly less inclined to believe that information regarding UFOs and extraterrestrial life should be shared with the public. Compared to its younger counterparts, this group is more likely to decline a set opinion on the topic.

Adults who consider themselves at least somewhat psychologically prepared for the discovery of extraterrestrial life are significantly more inclined to believe that government information regarding this and UFO sightings should not be kept secret from the public. This same opinion is shared by believers of extraterrestrial life as well as those who are very interested in encountering such life forms themselves.

Happy Mother's Day !!!

Ngày Ghi Ơn Mẹ

Ở Hoa Kỳ, ngày Chúa Nhật thứ hai của tháng Năm dương lịch được mang tên là "Ngày Hiền Mẫu", ngày mà ai ai cũng nôn nức bày tỏ lòng kính yêu người thân mến nhất trên đời, tức là người Mẹ của chúng ta.
Thật vậy, không ai có liên hệ mật thiết và dịu dàng với ta cho bằng Mẹ. Không ai yêu thương và chăm sóc ta cho bằng Mẹ. Chín tháng cưu mang, ba năm nâng niu bú bởm, bảy năm quạt nồng ấp lạnh, rồi suốt đời an ủi, vỗ về, chiều chuộng, chở che và phấn khích...đời Mẹ đã thực sự gắn liền với đời con! Có bao giờ ta quên được những nụ cười hiền hoà, những ánh mắt trìu mến của Mẹ!? Cho tới lúc bạc đầu răng long, trái tim chúng ta sẽ vẫn còn rung động khi nghe tên Mẹ, bởi vì Tình Mẫu Tử khắng khít qúa, thiêng liêng qúa và mênh mông vô cùng không thể nào vơi can được.

Mẹ cho con tình yêu không mệt mỏi, vì chổ bắt đầu từ ngưỡng cửa yêu thương.

Happy Mother's Day !!!

Đoá Hồng Dâng Mẹ

Mẹ ơi, đây một đóa hồng
Con dâng lên mẹ ghi công sinh thành
Ghi đêm thức đủ năm canh
Khi con trở gió ươn mình không vui
Ghi ngày miếng ngọt miếng bùi
Nhường cho con để con tươi tuổi hồng
Quản chi tháng Hạ ngày Đông
Thương con mẹ biết bao công vun bồi
Lớn khôn, con đã nên người
Mong manh, mẹ, nắng cuối trời, hoàng hôn
Cầu xin mẹ khoẻ vui luôn
Cho con muôn một ghi ơn, báo đền
Yêu thương săn sóc mẹ hiền
Mong cao tuổi hạc, mong thêm nụ cười
Con cầu xin lượng đất trời
Ban ơn cho mẹ như lời con mong
Lòng con, một đóa hoa hồng
Xin dâng lên mẹ nhớ công sinh thành
Thơ: Ngô Minh Hằng

"Famous Mothers"

The youngest mother whose history is authenticated is Lina Medina, who delivered a 6½-pound boy by cesarean section in Lima, Peru in 1939, at an age of 5 years and 7 months. The child was raised as her brother and only discovered that Lina was his mother when he was 10.

Lina, Dr. Gerado Lozada and her son

The oldest known birth mother in the world currently is Maria del Carmen Bousada de Lara of Spain who gave delivered twins at the age of 66 in 2006.

Bobbie McCaughey is the mother who holds the record for the most surviving children from a single birth. She gave birth to the first set of surviving septuplets - four boys and three girls -on November 19, 1997, at the University Hospital, Iowa, US. Conceived by in vitro fertilization, the babies were delivered after 31 weeks by caesarean in the space of 16 minutes. The babies are named Kenneth, Nathaniel, Brandon, Joel, Kelsey, Natalie and Alexis.

Jayne Bleackley is the mother who holds the record for the shortest interval between two children born in separate confinements. She gave birth to Joseph Robert on September 3, 1999, and Annie Jessica Joyce on March 30, 2000. The babies were born 208 days apart.

Elizabeth Ann Buttle is the mother who holds the record for the longest interval between the birth of two children. She gave birth to Belinda on May 19,1956 and Joseph on November 20, 1997. The babies were born 41 years 185 days apart. The mother was 60 years old when her son Joseph was born.

The highest officially recorded number of children born to one mother is 69, to the first wife of Feodor Vassilyev (1707-1782) of Shuya, Russia. Between 1725 and 1765, in a total of 27 confinements, she gave birth to 16 pairs of twins, seven sets of triplets, and four sets of quadruplets. 67 of them survived infancy.

The modern world record for giving birth is held by Leontina Albina from San Antonio, Chile. Leontina claims to be the mother of 64 children, of which only 55 of them are documented. She is listed in the 1999 Guinness World Records but dropped from later editions.

Jenna Cotton gave birth to three children on the same date - October 2. Her son, Ayden, arrived on Oct. 2, 2003; son Logan was born Oct. 2, 2006, and daughter Kayla was born Tuesday, which was Oct. 2, 2007. The odds of a family having three children born on the same date in different years are about 7.5 in 1 million.
