Solar Cars 100 Years Ago

Posted by addisethiopia / አዲስ ኢትዮጵያ on June 19, 2012

100 years ago, at the turn of the century the planet already had the environmental friendly cars, trams and trolleybuses powered by batteries and electric. That is before the discovery of the dirty black gold, oil, when tens of thousands of electric cars buzzed around the cities of the world. Even afte the discovery and implementation of petroleum, many cities preferred the superior battery-cars to the stinking gasoline-powered ones, for the time being the dirty competition seemed to have no chance with the cars, but gradually gasoline destroyed the potentials of electocars in their infancy. Why? Is it for the cost-effective nature of Oil? No! Why then? It is because the devil had a mission, a mission to make oil-producing states rich — by making them rich he prepared them for the ultimate war against the Kingdom of God. Look around which counties are producing oil and you will be ab;e to identify the movement and spread of the unholy ghost.

Diesel Fumes Cause Lung Cancer

Posted by addisethiopia / አዲስ ኢትዮጵያ on June 19, 2012

ይህ ዜና እንደ አዲስ አበባ ያሉ ከተሞችን ይመለከታል። አዲስ አበባ ገና ብዙ መኪኖች የሏትም፡ ነገር ግን ከፍተኛ ቦታ ላይ ስለምትገኝና ብዙ የዲዘል ጭስ የሚያወጡ መኪኖች ስለሚንቀሳቀሱ ነዋሪዎቿ ለብዙ ዓይነት በሽታዎች የመጋለጥ እድሉ ይኖራቸዋል። ይህ እጅግ በጣም አሳሳቢ ጉዳይ ነው። 

Diesel fumes cause lung cancer, the World Health Organization declared Tuesday, and experts said they were more carcinogenic than secondhand cigarette smoke.

The W.H.O. decision, the first to elevate diesel to the “known carcinogen” level, may eventually affect some American workers who are heavily exposed to exhaust. It is particularly relevant to poor countries, where trucks, generators, and farm and factory machinery routinely belch clouds of sooty smoke and fill the air with sulfurous particulates.

The United States and other wealthy nations have less of a problem because they require modern diesel engines to burn much cleaner than they did even a decade ago. Most industries, like mining, already have limits on the amount of diesel fumes to which workers may be exposed.

Must Egyptian History Be Rewritten?

Posted by addisethiopia / አዲስ ኢትዮጵያ on June 19, 2012

Scanning electron microscope study of the blocks from which the Giza pyramid was constructed have shown that they are structurally different from natural limestone in the area.

The limestone blocks from which the Giza pyramid was constructed is amorphous unlike natural limestone. Material Scientist professor Michel Barsoum of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Drexel University concluded that the blocks could NOT have been cut from a quarry
