PLANTS ARE HARMFUL TO HUMANS

noreply@blogger.com (Malik Imran Awan) — Mon, 15 Dec 2014 15:41:00 +0000

Plants are wonderful: they are covered with leaves, they filter the air and look great. Needless to say - without them we would not have survived. They convert carbon dioxide in the basil leaves and raspberry. And they look great in the living room! Whether it's a living room or kitchen, every room looks a little better, if it contains a piece of Mother Nature. So, yes - the plants just wonderful. At least most of them. Unfortunately, not every plant can coexist with humans. In fact, in nature there is a surprisingly wide range of horrific plants that can not be accurately entered into the house or grow close to the people. Some of them have a pungent smell, some poisonous, there are those who are hurt, there are even some strange plants that feed on bird droppings (can this plant is planted near the place where you put your car). Here are the plants that absolutely not worth it to plant in my house. Heracleum mantegazzianum (Giant Hogweed)

As with all good plants from Heracleum mantegazzianum there are a number of interesting features. This plant is also known as giant hogweed, tree-cow parsnip and Caucasian hogweed. The name sounds pretty edible, however, his sticky juice make you cry out in pain. Juice Heracleum mantegazzianum is Phytophotodermatitis, it means that your skin after contact with the juice becomes hypersensitive to ultraviolet light. If the skin, which got juice Heracleum mantegazzianum, falls under the rays of the sun on it instantly appear burns and blisters. And it is difficult burns like "oh, I have combed a hand." Heracleum mantegazzianum juice is much more toxic than poison ivy. Contact with this juice in the eye, even in very small quantities can lead to blindness.

The massive appearance of this invasive weed in Ontario in 2012, at times raised the awareness of Canadians about the horrific effects of its juice. The clear sap causes blisters and scars that are similar to those that remain on the skin after a chemical burn. If this sounds horrible enough, you should know that in the juice Heracleum mantegazzianum contains chemicals called furanocoumarins, which can cause congenital malformations and cancer. Abrus prayer (Rosary Pea)

The name of this plant sounds pretty harmless, but it can kill. Abrus prayer is also known as the Indian licorice, crab eyes and licorice. This plant is endemic in Indonesia, but was brought in other tropical and subtropical regions around the world. The seeds of this plant contain a toxin known as abrin, which is similar to a known toxin ricin, but is much more dangerous than ricin. It is interesting that the hard seeds are perfectly safe as long as you do not break up. In fact, they may even pass through the digestive system without causing any adverse health effects. But if the body gets toxins contained within the hard shell, even in small amounts, it can cause vomiting, diarrhea, severe dehydration, hallucinations and convulsions. Just a few micrograms of toxin can kill a person. However, despite all the risks associated with the seed, some artists dare to take the risk and use them to create beautiful jewelry. If they allow the slightest mistake in handling these seeds, the phrase "to suffer for the sake of art" for them to acquire a completely different meaning. Voronets White (Doll's Eyes) In addition to berries Varanets white very poisonous, they also look terribly due its similarity with cartoon eyes. This plant can often be seen in the northern and western parts of North America. Toxic whole plant, but the largest concentration of toxins stored in the berries. The plant is a carcinogen and has a sedative effect on the muscles, which can often lead to heart failure.However, the birds can eat these berries without any harm to their health. The lucky ones! Hydnellum Peck (Bleeding Tooth Fungus) This fungus looks like a bleeding deformed paste. It produces blisters filled with red slush, which contain pigment having the same qualities as heparin, an anticoagulant. This fungus also known as "strawberry and cream", "tooth with red juice" and "tooth of the devil." Juice inside the bubble contains an anticoagulant called atromentin, which is similar to heparin. Atromentin as heparin to prevent clotting. stinging tree (Gympie Gympie Tree) This plant is endemic in Australia and Indonesia. Hollow tip ends of which are covered with silica gel, breaking off, to leave the ends of the skin. If this sounds painful enough, you should know that the spines contain a potent neurotoxin, known as moroydin that is so strong that the dog died from it, and even horses. Stabbing feeling unbearably painful and can hold from a few days to a few weeks. An article in the «Australian Geographic» tells the story of how one army officer was shot after biting used leaf tree "in the toilet purposes." Yes, he chose suicide torment of stinging tree. African gidnora (Hydnora Africana) This plant with juicy lips is another member of the family "carrion flowers." It stinks like an animal, knocked down on the road, which was prepared by the side of Route 69 (Route 69). This strange flower looks like a vagina and emits a strange smell. Maybe it sounds funny, but put them in a house just is not worth it, because this obscene pink flower emits a pungent smell to attract pollinating insects.These plants, which are endemic to southern Africa, are also parasitic and attach themselves to the roots of plants of the family Euphorbiaceae. They catch the beetles into the trap of his fleshy walls, and then released them after bloom.Lysichiton americanus (Western Skunk Cabbage) What's that smell? Skunk? And here and there, it is Lysichiton americanus, also known as marsh flashlight. Lysichiton americanus endemic Pacific Northwest and thrives in marshy areas.Some aboriginal tribes of the Pacific Northwest of its broad leaves used to wrap them in a salmon or weaving baskets for berry picking. In addition, the roots of American Lysichiton contain a substance called calcium oxalate, which causes a burning sensation in the mouth when eating these roots. Surprisingly in flowers Lysichiton americanus is that they produce heat in a chemical reaction that allows the plant to break through the ice and snow in the spring. Cholya Jumping (Jumping Cholla) No, it is not a movement of the dance, at least for now. This is actually a cactus endemic southwest United States and northern Mexico. This name, this plant has received because of his tendency "to jump" and attack you.When you touch just before it, the cuttings can be easily separated from the plant, giving the impression that they jumped on you. In the rough choli has microscopic hooks, so remove them hurt like hell. Just imagine thousands of tiny triple hooks, and you will understand what is at stake. Nepenthes Lowe (Nepenthes Lowii) This carnivorous plant endemic to Borneo.The stomach of this plant is filled with acidic digestive juices. Due to the fact that the plant grows in the region with poor nutrition, it has to produce nitrogen and other nutrients from animals that fall into jars. The inside of the jar is covered with a layer of wax, because of which the insects slips and falls into the depths of the jar, where they were immediately digested in the style of the Sarlacc (Sarlacc). In addition to insects, these plants also feed on bird droppings and Tupaj. Plant catches droppings falling from the trees, and complements your diet derived from litter nitrogen. Amorphophallus titanum (Corpse Flower) Besides the fact that it is the largest flower on earth, this plant is a member of the ill-fated family "carrion flowers."When the plant blooms, its smell like the smell emanating from the human cadaver. Scientific nomenclature of plants sounds like «Amorphophallus titanum», or "deformed giant phallus." This plant is endemic of Sumatra, Indonesia. The plant uses a putrid odor to attract insects that pollinate it. Flowers plants one-day, and keep a day or even less.

PLACES WHERE YOU CAN EAT

noreply@blogger.com (Malik Imran Awan) — Sun, 14 Dec 2014 09:52:00 +0000

Not all animals on this planet aware that you are the top of the food chain, so when you visit these sites know that you are a very tasty dinner for these animals:

National Park "Manu", Peru

National Park "Manu", located on the eastern slopes of the Peruvian Andes, is an ideal habitat for the jaguar. Large predators in South America quite comfortable in the dense tropical forests penetrated by small streams. Although the main prey of the jaguar - capybaras, it can attack and livestock. Interested predator and irritating tourists who in search of the big cats are taken deeper into the jungle. Jaguar hunts from an ambush on a tree or in the tall grass. In the attack on the victim, he usually jumps at her from behind or from the side, grabbing his neck, breaking the cervical vertebrae and sometimes biting through the skull. But if the ambush and found the victim flees, Jaguar had never been pursued. Mexico, Baja CaliforniaBaja California coast is a favorite habitat of the great white shark - one of the most dangerous creatures of the ocean. By coincidence, the same sites like surfers and divers. So shark almost get dinner delivered to your door. Although attacks ended fatally, not so much injured by sharks in these waters enough. But the chance of losing a limb only incites curiosity eager adrenaline travelers in these parts will not be difficult to find a company that will arrange for a shark feeding and scuba dive in an iron cage. The National Park "Khao Sok", Thailand Want to learn how to quickly treat snake bite or even better - how to avoid actually bite and meeting with a snake? Then you direct road to the national park "Khao Sok" in Thailand. Here you will learn about snakes, even more than would be desirable. In the park is home to the world's largest population of king cobra, which grows up to six meters in length and has a stock of poison is enough to kill an elephant. There is also home to many other reptiles, were killed in the year several hundred local residents. But tourists are almost no danger, of course, if you do not climb into the jungle without an experienced guide. The National Park "South Luangwa" Zambia Although the reputation as the most ferocious animal has an African lion, a lot more people are killed hippos. During the year the victims are 100-150 locals and a few tourists. Brings Europeans cartoon hippo image as being slow and good-natured. In fact, these animals are very aggressive, especially juveniles, have impressive fangs to half a meter long and run twice as fast as a person. Hippos easily overturn boats, but they are especially dangerous at night, when they go to feed on shore. Lake Baikal, Russia Baikal - one of the last regions where you can see live wild wolf, who founded fear in us at the genetic level.Although violent attacks on a person when killed entire villages were far in the past, the wolf is a very dangerous animal, a meeting which alone does not bode well. In addition to the wolf in the woods Baikal is not so easy to meet and lynx, and brown bear. If you ever wanted to look into the eyes of a predator in Irkutsk there are many tour companies, you are ready to organize this meeting. The National Park "Kakadu", Australia Australia's most ferocious predators remains a crocodile, every year, on average, it kills one person, and somewhat his fault maimed. Basically its victims are fishermen, but it is possible to encounter in almost any body of water north coast. The best chance to meet crocodiles - the visitors of the national park "Kakadu", which is home to the oldest and most ferocious predators. Best time to visit - July-August, when the cold-blooded reptiles are most of the time, soaking up the sun. Ordering at a local restaurant steak crocodile, you can get a visual confirmation that the person is really the top of the food chain. The plains of the Serengeti, Tanzania Unlike the rest of the world, where the number of attacks of wild animals has been steadily declining, Tanzania, on the contrary, is losing more and more residents in a collision with lions. More than 600 local farmers and herdsmen were killed over the past 20 years. However, the best place for a close acquaintance with the lions than the Serengeti Plains, think hard, so that the number of travelers attracted by the sight of the bloody feast predators, is growing every year. Fortunately, tourists are protected from attacks by the local population is much better, however, and they do not relax and ignore the warnings of local guides. Churchill, Canada Every autumn, the town of Churchill in Manitoba is filled with tourists who want to take a closer look at the migration of the largest land predator - the polar bear. To deal with a person for a 600-pound predator - a piece of cake, so the city is surrounded by special traps. And on a date with wildlife travelers go on a giant wheel-drive buses, good enough to protect tourists gastronomic interest bears, and get into the bear's paw can only own stupidity.National Park "Ranthambhor" India no exact statistics are not kept, but in India, Nepal and Bangladesh each year hundreds of people are being attacked tigers, and who lived at the beginning of the last century champvatsky man-eating tiger set a record, killing more than 430 people. At the present time, thanks to this beautiful animal poachers in India has become a rarity, but it can still be found in the national park "Ranthambhor." Tiger is difficult to hide in sparse deciduous forests of the reserve, and therefore the most successful trip to the dry winter months - the bright colors of the beast stands out from the dried bushes. The National Park "Komodo" Indonesia Komodo less dangerous to humans than sharks or crocodiles, yet know enough cases of attacks on people have been fatal. Although the huge reptile weight as an adult man looks slow, it runs fast enough to catch up with the man and hurt him with his razor-sharp, teeth. Komodo dragon bite is deadly. In addition to the poison into the wound gets more and more than fifty species of pathogenic bacteria, and, according to statistics, without medical intervention likely to die from the bite of almost 100 percent. Even if you come to see the Komodo dragons, the night on the island itself is not recommended.

Travel to Greenland in Denmark began and ended in Iceland. After spending two days in Copenhagen, flew by plane to Greenland, where boarded the cruise ship "Fram" Company "H u rtigruten ". Swimming around Greenland accompanied by daily landings, which usually took place on boats such as "Zodiac". Eight days on familiarity with Greenland, two days to cross the Denmark Strait - Strait between Greenland and Iceland. Begin our new journey - this time on the amazing country of icebergs and colors - Greenland.

In Greenland glaciers are born simply colossal proportions, and then they give rise to a huge iceberg that ply the waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

In the summer of huge blocks of ice form a true natural works of art - ice sculptures. When a huge ice cliff passing ships or boats she admires and simultaneously frightening. From coast to look at this beauty much quieter ... :)

Depending on the density of ice and weather conditions, icebergs acquire a different color from blue-black to turquoise and transparent as glass.

THE SEVEN RULES OF GOOD CHINESE RESTAURANT

noreply@blogger.com (Malik Imran Awan) — Fri, 31 Oct 2014 16:26:00 +0000

Not all Chinese restaurants are equally tasty. Choose a nice restaurant - an art, however, and it has its own rules. Master them offer the example of Cambodia, that's where the expanse institutions with Chinese cuisine to suit every taste and budget. Greater choice except in China ...

So, generally №1. A good Chinese restaurant is never empty. It is possible that morning will be almost no visitors. In the afternoon, 5-6 hours before the restaurant is usually closed on hiatus. But from 6-7 pm in the life of the institution should boil: parking clogged and motorbikes, a common room to be filled with people, waiters and managers - knocks and offices (in most Chinese restaurants have separate rooms) snapped.

Rule №2. In most good Chinese restaurants have this dish on the menu, like Peking duck, it can be called Beijing or Pekin duck.Often stand for cutting duck standing right in front of the restaurant on the street, and the chef in front of the amazed public deftly shreds meat.

Rule №3. In a good Chinese restaurant at the entrance is also worth a booth with all sorts of marine life: crabs, turtles, clams, shrimp, lobster, etc. Theoretically, the client can poke a finger in any of the available reptile and gestures to explain how it should be cooked. And immediately the waiter SADC or just bare hands will catch the desired animals suffer and the kitchen, where the chef will cook it the way he tells a fantasy.

Rule №4. Beautiful setting does not guarantee a delicious meal. Rather, the simpler - the better. Correct Chinese restaurant is usually characterized by a round table with rotating top, covered by a cloth or gold-red color (wealth) in the same colors wallpaper.The walls can show off some cheap paintings. On the table, a plain white dishes, possibly with cracks. All. However, the decor is good Chinese restaurant may consist only of plastic tables and chairs in the street.

Rule №5. Chinese food can not be imagined without the sauces. Once you sit down at the table and begin to scroll the menu, as immediately the waiter will bring the soy sauce and vinegar, which looks very similar. If you do not know the local language, it is necessary to distinguish the taste.

Also to each dish served separate sauce for shrimp - with sweet chilli, a duck - sweet and sour, to crabs - acute and so on ...

Before meals bring peanuts, finely chopped garlic and chili peppers, this appetizer - an indispensable attribute of any Chinese restaurant. Garlic and chili are usually added to taste in soy sauce.

Rule №6. Some good Chinese restaurant menu can be in Chinese. Or may extend to twenty pages. What to order in this case?There is a certain set of Chinese dishes that always makes a good impression, even on people not among the fans of Chinese cuisine. This crab soup (in Cambodia, for example, it is called "soup kdam") ...

all sorts of "Dim sama" resembling dumplings with different fillings, including sweet and ...

pork in Cantonese (Cantonese pork or Honey pork) , delicious meat cooked in a sweet sauce ...

noodles, fried (fried noodle) or crispy (crispy noodle) ...

rice (it offers to any dish, so that the book is optional) ...

and, of course, crabs - King evening! They definitely need the tweezers. Even if you know how to be "curling crab" in English, it is not necessary to excel. Explain to the waiter gestures, he will understand!

Rule №7. Actually, the main rule. In a good Chinese restaurant I want to lick the plate. And points.
