OMG HISTORY OF DIAMOND

THE HISTORY OF DIAMOND MINING AND DIAMONDS IN SOUTH AFRICA TO INDIA

Let's coming to the point friends.
 The 1867 discovery of diamonds in the Cape Colony, South Africa, radically modified not only the world’s supply of diamonds but also the conception of them. As annual world diamond production increased more than tenfold in the following 10 years, a once extremely rare material became accessible to Western society with its growing wealth. Today South Africa maintains its position as a major diamond producer.Working resumed in 1945, but its fourth life really began in 1979 with the opening up of the mine below the Gabbroe sill, a 70-meter geologic intrusion of barren rock which cuts right through the pipe some 400 meters below the surface. Production from this new source has not only given the mine its longest life, but one that should enable production to continue for another fifteen years.
In the early years of its existence, the Premier Mine produced many large diamonds, including, of course the Cullinan in 1905, and since working was restarted in 1945 the mine has continued to yield some exceptional stones

       WHAT ABOU TO INDIA INVOLVED                        HISTORY OF DIAMOND
   
Until the 18th century, India was thought to be the only source of diamonds. When the Indian diamond mines were depleted, the quest for alternate sources began. Although a small deposit was found in Brazil in 1725, the supply was not enough to meet world demands.medical aid and were thought to cure illness and heal wounds when ingestedSurprisingly, diamonds share some common characteristics with coal. Both arecomposed of the most common substance on earth: carbon.
What makes diamonds different from coal is the way the carbon atoms are arranged and how the carbon is formed. Diamonds are created when carbon is subjected to the extremely high pressures and temperatures found at the earth’s lithosphere, which lies approximately 90-240 miles below the earth’s surface. 

        Why are diamonds expensive ?

Diamonds are very expensive because they occur at relative few places in the world.like
Russia and south Africa and are very difficultto extract.They are made of carbon and are the hardest substance known to us, wich is the result of the high pressure at their place of origin deep below the Earth's surface. They are naturally thrown up on the Earth's surface through volcanic eruptions. Being very hard they are mined in the vents of the extinct volcanoes. Being very hard omg they have great industrial use for grinding tools.

1874 farm family fights a losing battle with the relentless "hoppers" in a cartoon by 19th-century illustrator Henry Worrall.

                         

(Kansas State Historical Society) 

Late one July morning in 1874, 12-year-old farm girl Lillie Marcks watched the sunlight dim and a peculiar darkness sweep over the Kansas sky. A whirring, rasping sound followed, and there appeared, as she later recalled, “a moving gray-green screen between the sun and earth.” Then something dropped from the cloud like hail, hitting her family’s house, trees and picket fence. A child in Jefferson County, Kansas, who had gone out at midday to draw water from the well exclaimed: “They’re here! The sky is full of ’em. The whole yard is crawling with the nasty things.” A settler in Edwards County, 

Kansas, reported: “I

What are locusts?

Locusts have been feared and revered throughout history. Related to grasshoppers, these insects form enormous swarms that spread across regions, devouring crops and leaving serious agricultural damage in their wake.

Behavior and life cycle 

Locusts look like ordinary grasshoppers—most notably, they both have big hind legs that help them hop or jump. They sometimes share the solitary lifestyle of a grasshopper, too. However, locust behavior can be something else entirely.


caused to crops by sporadic swarming events. Desert Locusts can eat their own weight of food per day, meaning a swarm of 50,000,000 locusts/km² in a large swarm can consume an astonishing 100 tonnes/km²/day of food. Locust swarms also have social and political implications due to their threat to food security and the implementation of management and control strategies. Locust plagues are sporadic and unpredictable, and will only occur if conditions are right to facilitate population outbreaks and upsurge events. 


Locust control is a challenge and would be greatly improved by better cost effectiveness, efficacy, safety and reliability of management operations. In particular there are difficulties involved in predicting outbreaks given the lack of periodicity of such incidences and the uncertainty of rainfall in locust areas. However technological advances including lower cost satellite imagery, custom GIS systems and improved weather models will continue to improve forecasting of locust populations, and therefore facilitate locust monitoring

OMG TROPICAL OCEAN & LIVING ANIMALS

                                   TROPICAL OCEAN 

Tropical ocean encircle Earth in an equatorial band between the Tropic of Cancer (23.5° North latitude) and the Tropic of Capricorn (23.5° South latitude). * The central portions of the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans and most of the Indian Ocean lie in the tropics. The warm tropical oceans play a critical role in regulating Earth's climate and large-scale weather patterns. Much of the planet's biological diversity resides in the tropics, and the global distribution of species and ecosystems depends on oceanographic and atmospheric processes that occur in the equatorial oceans.    

The water temperature of tropical oceans thus typically exceeds 20°C (68°F) and stays relatively constant

throughout the cool, oxygen-rich and nutrient-rich deep water supports abundant marine life. Because normal tropical currents flow from east to west, downwellings often occur along the east coasts of tropical continents, and upwellings are common along their west coasts. In the Pacific Ocean, for example, an upwelling off the west coast of South America usually feeds extremely productive fisheries of coastal Peru and Ecuador, and a downwelling in Polynesia forces warm, oxygen-depleted water into the deep ocean.   

Deep ocean water rises to the surface at upwellings where surface currents flow away from land, or where surface currents diverge. Tropical downwellings transfer heat and nutrients to the deep-ocean circulation system. At tropical upwellings

OK Which animals and plants live in the tropical seas. Let’s see omg information

The tropical seas with their colourful coral reefs are one of the most conspicuous habitats of the world. The bizarre-shaped coral reefs provide home to many colourful fish, snails, sea urchins, prawns, and shells. Other inhabitants are also present in the water –sea turtles, whose armour is flatter than that of the land turtles, hammerhead sharks with their hammer-shaped broad head, and some other animals that are even more dangerous than sharks.

OMG – YOU KNOW GUYS.

Finding Nemo move.  fish family there are some. its true guys that fish name was. Clownfish,Paracanthurus hepatu.

                                      OMG HISTORY OF LOVE

                                                

The concept of Greece love was important to two of the most significant poets of English Romanticism, Byron and Shelley.

 'Greece' as the historical memory of a treasured past was romantic

and idealised as a time and a culture when love between males and females wonderful Way of Proposing love to a Young Woman in 15th century Ancient Greece was to throw an Apple to Her!

Rather funny to proposing rose but its truth. Woman caught the apple, she accepted your marriage proposal.

Marriage couples  both are equally intriguing. Besides, the couples in those days used to eat apples on their wedding night OMG as a symbol of love and people also gifted apples to each other.
