10 )The Wow! Signal

Original Printout of Wow! Signal

One summer night in 1977, Jerry Ehman, a volunteer for SETI, or the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, may have become the first man ever to receive an intentional message from an alien world. Ehman was scanning radio waves from deep space, hoping to randomly come across a signal that bore the hallmarks of one that might be sent by intelligent aliens, when he saw his measurements spike.

The signal lasted for 72 seconds, the longest period of time it could possibly be measured by the array that Ehman was using. It was loud and appeared to have been transmitted from the constellation Sagittarius near a star called Tau Sagittarii, 120 light-years away.

Ehman wrote the words "Wow!" on the original printout of the signal, thus its title as the "Wow! Signal."

All attempts to locate the signal again have failed, leading to much controversy and mystery about its origins and its meaning.

Weird Diseases : Terrible Medical Patients' Stories

The living statue syndrome (or Stone man syndrome)

Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) is one of the rarest, painful and most disabling genetic conditions in which bones form in muscles, tendons, ligaments and other connective tissues. These bones develop across joints thus restricting movement and forming a second skeleton. The body thus looks like a living statue. Unfortunately, there is no effective treatment for this condition. Injuries and surgeries can further deteriorate the condition. This genetic disease doesn’t have ethnic, racial, or gender patterns and has been found to affect just one in two million people.

Jeannie Peeper became aware of her disorder when she was 8. Her left wrist had locked in a backwards position as a new bone had grown in her arm. Jeannie’s doctors took a muscle biopsy from her left forearm. That caused another bone growth that had frozen the joint. Over the next decade, she grew more bones across her back disfiguring her, her right elbow locking, and her left hip freezing. Once she hit her hip on the corner of the table. It caused another bone growth. This time her right hip froze. Since then she has been in a wheelchair.

Beautiful Birds : Would they Become History ?

According to International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), 1253 birds fall under the "endangered" category. Majority of these birds are endangered due to humans.

Some really beautiful birds, which are sadly endangered to a great extent.

1) Vulture

Estimated Population : 2 - 3 Thousand.

In the past 10 - 15 years, 97 - 98% vultures have died. An analgesic ( pain reliever ) "diclofenac" is responsible for their destruction. It results in the kidney failure of vultures. If an animal is given diclofenac , and vultures eat their flesh, they die.

The Theft of Mona Lisa.

This article is about the theft of the most famous painting in the world - The Mona Lisa ( or La Gioconda in Italian ; 

La Joconde in French)

Mona lisa was stolen right from the wall of Louvre (Museum in Paris, France) on 21 August 1911. This crime was unimaginable by all. Shocked by the incident, the curator of Egyptian antiquities was contacted by the museum authorities. He, in turn, called the Paris police. About 60 investigators were sent over to the Louvre shortly after noon. They closed the museum and carried on their search.

Lourve, Paris.

Unfortunately, there was no evidence at all, except a fingerprint on the painting's frame.

Most Peculiar Heists (thefts) ever !

Here especially for you guys, is a list of top 6 most extraordinary and "out-of-the-box" heists.

6) D.B.COOPER HEIST:1971

Sketch of D.B. Cooper

             

One of the biggest unsolved air piracy act in the American history which occurred on 24th November 1971 when an unidentified man but known by a common media miscommunication as D.B. Cooper alone hijacked a Boeing 727 aircraft. He lit a cigarette and ordered the air hostess Schaffner a bourbon and soda. Later he dropped a note in her purse, which she assumed his phone number. Cooper leaned toward her and whispered, "Miss, you'd better look at that note. I have a bomb."
The note was printed in neat, all-capital letters with a felt pen. It read, approximately, "I have a bomb in my briefcase. I will use it if necessary. I want you to sit next to me. You are being hijacked." Schaffner did as requested, then quietly asked to see the bomb. Cooper cracked open his briefcase long enough for her to glimpse eight red cylinders("four on top of four") attached to wires coated with red insulation, and a large cylindrical battery. After closing the briefcase, he dictated his demands: $200,000 in "negotiable American currency"; four parachutes (two primary and two reserve); and a fuel truck standing by in Seattle to refuel the aircraft upon arrival. Schaffner did as she was told. When she returned, he was wearing dark sunglasses. He then jumped out of the aircraft with a parachute somewhere in between Portland, Oregon and Seattle. Even after years of searches and on going FBI investigation, the heister has never been able to get located neither identified and nor the ransom money was recovered, although it is believed he parachuted to an uncertain fate and did not survive his risky jump. But his case has grown up to 60 volumes of case files till today and remains one of the most important cases in the Bureau.

The Haunted Ship : Ourang Medan

Ourang Medan

Variety of tales of ghost ships like the Flying Dutchman and the Mary Celeste have been passed down from one generation of seafarer to the next for centuries Arguably the most disturbing of all these legends is the shocking case of the S.S. Ourang Medan.

The word Ourang in Indonesian means "Man" and Medan is a city in Sumatra, Indonesia. So the approx translation of Ourang Medan is " Man  from  Medan "

According to widely circulated reports, in June of 1947 — or, according to other sources, February of 1948 — multiple ships surveying the trade routes of the straits of Malacca, which is located between the shores of Sumatra and Malaysia, claimed to have picked up a series of SOS distress signals. The unknown ship’s message was [ here ### means words which were heard very unclear , hence unknown ]

" ### we float. All officers including the Captain, dead in chart-room and on the bridge. Probably whole of crew dead ###. ( after a short pause) ### I die"

All About Israeli - Palestinian Conflict

  Everything  you  need  to  know  about  Israeli - Palestinian  conflict

Israelis and Arabs have been fighting over Gaza on and off, for decades.

After World War II and the Holocaust in which six million Jewish people were killed, more Jewish people wanted their own country.

They were given a large part of Palestine, which they considered their traditional home but the Arabs who already lived there and in neighbouring countries felt that was unfair and didn't accept the new country.

In 1948, the two sides went to war. When it ended, Gaza was controlled by Egypt and the West Bank, by Jordan. They contained thousands of Palestinians who fled what was now the new Jewish home, Israel.

From where it came ? Doctors and scientists aren't sure about its origin. Some say ebola is found (and formed) in monkey, pig and bat's intestines! While others say it is an alien conspiracy.

But whatever it is, only thing we know is that its origin is still unknown.

Hypothetical War : China vs India

Consider:-

China is a professional boxer Chang. A world class one at that.

India is a street fighter, Sahil. Can take care of street rats, but no match for the boxer when it comes to fight.

Pakistan is his 13 year old brother, Mustafa, aggressive, incensed, hot head, but untrained and fragile.

Sri Lanka is a 5 year old kid, Suvik.

Now, suppose, Chang  has decided to beat the shit out of Sahil, in a street fight at Sahil's home. Mustafa and Suvik join Chang. Who will Sahil worry the most about? None ,but obviously, Chang.
