ผู้ประท้วงชาวฮ่องกงไม่ยอมถอย

Protests in Hong Kong continue  after tens of thousands of people defied calls for them to dismantle their camps and return home. Demonstrations fanned out to more neighborhoods after police tried to disperse crowds using batons and tear gas early Monday morning. Riot police later withdrew. The pro-democracy protesters are angry at China for limiting their choice in Hong Kong's 2017 leadership elections. Demonstrators used umbrellas to protect themselves from tear gas overnight and to ward off the sweltering sun as they continued their sit-in throughout the day. That gave rise to the movement’s name—The Umbrella Revolution. --Thea Breite
การประท้วงในฮ่องกงยังคงดำเนินต่อ หลังจากมวลมหาประชาชนคนฮ่องกงที่ต้องการประชาธิปไตย ไม่ยอมกลับบ้าน  แต่กลับดาวกระจายไปหลายที่  หลังจากตำรวจใช้กระบอง และแกสน้ำตา  แต่ตำรวจเองนั่นแหละต้องถอย  ผู้ชุมนุมประท้วงไม่พอใจที่ทางการจีนมาจำกัดสิทธิในการเลือกตั้งของพวกเขา  โดยพากันใช้ร่มกำบังตัวเองจากแกสน้ำตา ... และเรียกการเคลื่อนไหวของพวกเขาซะเก๋ไก๋ว่า —The Umbrella Revolution การปฏิวัติร่ม

 At least 130,000 refugees have poured into Turkey over the past three days, escaping an Islamic State offensive in Syria. On Friday, Turkey reopened its border but forces fired tear gas and water cannon at hundreds of Kurdish protesters who accuse Ankara of favoring Islamic State against the Kurds. --Thea Breite (20 photos total)

Wonder of Science วิทยาศาสตร์มหรรศจรรย์

Maybe once in the world and wandered centaurs, waving wands, but unfortunately, all that remained in the books of fairy tales. In today's world there is only one thing that can work real magic - chemistry.There is a huge number of chemical reactions that affect their abilities. We offer you to witness some of the most spectacular chemical experiments.

Beads of water

The first thing to do - is sodium acetate. For a little bit, mix baking soda with vinegar, the main thing is not to take a lot. Now put on 10 minutes in the refrigerator. That would not save time, let's do another substance.Calcium bicarbonate, Iodized salt. It took 10 minutes, mix the bicarbonate of calcium with sodium acetate. Add iodized salt in the proportion of 1.2. Now, the resulting mixture should be cooked, about 7 minutes stirring without interruption. After all let cool (about 15 minutes). Now you almost know how to make water balls, there are very few. All is now ready, the water in contact with air becomes a water balloon.

Or just buy the hydrogel in the store

Thermite mixture (thermite - chemical, technical) (from the Greek. Therme - heat, heat) - a powdered mixture of aluminum (less magnesium) with oxides of different metals (usually iron). 
When ignited, burns vigorously with release of large amounts of heat (combustion temperature is 2300 -2700 ° C). Mixture is ignited by special primer (a mixture of barium peroxide, magnesium and sodium). There are termites welding telegraph and telephone wires, and wires of power lines. In military thermite used as incendiary compositions. In the production of ferroalloys termite with the addition of flux is called the charge

Nanopolymers allowed into production. This substance is able to repel almost any liquid. Hydrophobic coating - one of the first nanotechnology, which entered the market. The substance can be applied to many types of surfaces, including clothes and building materials

Chaos that has emerged now in Iraq as a result of activation of the militants, "the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant" (LIH), led to the emergence in the north of the country a large number of civilian refugees. Primarily from among the representatives of various minorities - Kurds and Christians, many of whom in their quest to avoid hanging over them deadly threat rushed toward the Iraq-Syrian border in the hope of finding refuge in areas controlled by Kurdish militias.

Airships

Author Atompunk in October 14, 2013 in History , Science & Technology / 1 comment / 2002 view 

From the middle of the XIX century. controlled aircraft lighter than air, equipped gondola and engines have become one of the most promising fields of engineering. Like many other aviation experiments, the early stage of trial and error was a long and adventurous. The so-called rigid and non-rigid airships filled with gas such as hydrogen or helium for lift rod, designed for military, scientific, transportation purposes. Unfortunately, the impressive "airships" and has not settled down, giving way to a more rapid and agile aircraft and helicopters, the service which, moreover, was much simpler and cheaper.
