This blog has become a sort of personal-cum-public diary. As for its contents, some are meant for me and my friends and relatives; others are for the public. This blog will have only positive, ennobling, elevating, encouraging and uplifting thoughts/ideas/materials. Whoever visits should feel happy and should be able to pick up some good ideas/thoughts/links. In short, "NOTHING NEGATIVE" is my motto.(Grateful thanks to Jon Sullivan and Public-Domain-Photos.com for the background photo)

In
September 1977, NASA launched Voyager I from Cape Canaveral, Florida. The craft
carried a golden record that contained a message to aliens from the people of
Earth. Here's what it said.
You
can now own your own version of the golden record by contributing to a
Kickstarter campaign by Ozma Records.

Outlines
forest expert Dr. Akira Miyawaki's disaster prevention plan to create
authentic, self-sustaining tide embankment forests that will survive even
stronger tsunamis and protect lives. Through interviews with Dr. Miyawaki and
simple animations, the video demonstrates the problems with current man-made
forests and shows how truly native trees are the best protection. The video
also shows how many people have been moved to action through clips of dozens of
volunteers planting seedlings, including the Venerable Hioki from Rinnoji
Temple, who shares how he feels the principles of natural vegetation are in
line with Buddhist teachings.
Hioki
Doryu, the 44th Abbot of the Rinnoji Soto Zen Temple, is the Association
Chairman. Deeply moved by Dr. Miyawaki's proposal to build protective forests
from trees native to the area, he and local residents have planted over 33,000
trees from over 50 species around Rinnoji Temple, based on the principles of
potential natural vegetation. Through Planting Tree Man shows, newspaper
columns, and other media outlets, the Venerable Hioki is committed to teaching
everyone, from children to adults, all across the world, about the importance
of forests.

THE
NINE CHILDREN OF QUEEN VICTORIA AND PRINCE ALBERT.
Since
many of you are commenting on the children not smiling, I thought I would tell
you the reason here. During this era it was custom for people not to smile in
photographs (kind of like how we are not supposed to smile in our passport
photos today). Photography also worked
differently back then. The exposure time was long which meant that the people
had to hold the same expression and sit still for a long period of time. If
they didn't they would turn out blurry in the photo. Two examples of this are
little Beatrice's left arm in the photo shown at 2:45 , and also, if you look
closely to the right of Vicky at 4:41 there is sort of an outline of her which
could indicate that she might have moved a little during the exposure time. So
it's not just the children of Queen Victoria that looked sad, stiff and gloomy
in their pictures. The majority of all the photos taken in the 19th centry will
show people not smiling. Smiling in photos became more common in the early 20th
century.
Because
of this "no-smiling-in-photos-thing" I, personally, find it precious
when they have slipped a little smile. If you're looking closely you can see
some of the children smiling in some of the photos shown in the video (with or
without showing their teeth).

Tea
is the second most consumed beverage in the world after water –– and from
sugary Turkish Rize tea to salty Tibetan butter tea, there are almost as many
ways of preparing the beverage as there are cultures on the globe. Where did
this beverage originate, and how did it become so popular? Shunan Teng details
tea’s long history.

Shortly
after the construction of the Gotthard tunnel, Switzerland pulled off another
pioneering achievement: the construction of the Thusis - St. Moritz railway
line between 1899 and 1903. This opened the Upper Engadine to tourists. The
Rhaetian Railway still passes over the same bridges and through the same loop
tunnels. A still greater challenge was the subsequent construction of the
Bernina Railway. No other railway in the world overcomes such steep gradients
and winds through such steep curves without the help of a cogwheel.

If you can’t imagine life without chocolate,
you’re lucky you weren’t born before the 16th century. Until then, chocolate
only existed as a bitter, foamy drink in Mesoamerica. So how did we get from a
bitter beverage to the chocolate bars of today? Deanna Pucciarelli traces the
fascinating and often cruel history of chocolate.

The
Biggest Ideas in the Universe is a series of videos where I talk informally
about some of the fundamental concepts that help us understand our natural
world. Exceedingly casual, not overly polished, and meant for absolutely
everybody.
This
is Idea #8, "Entanglement." I talk about what entanglement means, how
it showed up in classic work by Einstein, Schrödinger, and Bell, and the
crucial role it plays in competing formulations of the foundations of quantum
theory, including Many-Worlds and others.

What
