Remembered yesterday! 26/11


Do you remember the moans of children , men and women, who sobbed seven years back from today in Mumbai for the lives of their closed ones? many of you would have while many of others remembered the eve , when they watched news or read newspaper.
 I remember seven years back yesterday i was sitting with my family and we were stuck on the television screen for the whole day and the only channel on, was News channels. we changed one channel from other to get latest update related to the atrocious attack! while sitting back safely in our home in Lucknow we all were worried about the people at the site. All the news channels, to acquire the highest TRP, telecasted the recent and insight details of the scene. on the television screens we had three windows on almost every news channel, first showing the live position of terrorist, second displaying the rescue operations and position of our commandos while third displayed the misery. After the attack we were made several promises and a speech war started between India and Pakistan 
Socially and politically it affected the already tense relationship between many Indians and Pakistanis who were left to bear the repercussions and carry the resentments of the atrocious attacks. A promise was made to make our future safe.

But what now?

After seven years, majority has forgotten about the attack and the misery which was left behind on the faces of many. Did kasab getting punishment, after four years of  incident changed anything?
We are still those Indians who on the violation of rules ignore the culprit and brag about minor drawbacks and comment on the politics of our government. Why can't we see our side of downside and then react on others. why do we judge the story of the book just by looking to its cover. let's develop a habit to do and follow  justice on our part at all times, because to blame is easy but to work is difficult.

'LUCY' an evidence to evolution!

Today is the 41st anniversary of the discovery of 'Lucy', which might have been noticed by many of you on the google doodle. google has honored Lucy by it's doodle today.

 

Let me tell you some interesting facts about 'Lucy'.

'Lucy' is a collection of fossilized bones that once made up the skeleton of a hominid from the Australopithecus afarensis species. Lucy was discovered 41 years ago by paleoanthropologist Donald Johanson in 1974, Ethiopia. She was the first human-like ape and is supposed that she walked mostly on two legs, as suggested by her bone curvatures. She lived in Ethiopia 3.2 millions years ago.
The fossilized bones represent 40% of the skeleton of a female hominin species.

How 'Lucy' got her name 'Lucy'

Lucy acquired her name from the song 'lucy in the sky with diamond'  by the Beatles, which was played loudly and repeatedly in the camp when someone shouted 'let's call her Lucy'. After which the name became most common in the households.

 Mysteries about her

  The studies tell that she was young yet, a fully grown adult. Her age has not been confirmed yet but the studies of her fossils has declared that she was pretty small in height. She stood 1.1m (3.7ft) tall and weighed 29 kgs only.
The cause of her death is yet to be find out. The few clues we have about Lucy's cause of death can only rule things out, rather than provide solid answers. There is not much evidence of teeth on her skeleton, suggesting she was not killed and scavenged by other animals after she died.However, there is one tooth mark from a carnivore on the top of her left pubic bone - but it's not known whether this happened before she died, or whether she was bitten after.

The skeleton lies hidden away from public in a specially constructed safe in the National Museum of Ethiopia in Addis Ababa, not far from where she was discovered. Only her plaster replica is available to be seen by the public. However, the real skeleton was exhibited publicly in a six years tour of US and  the exhibition was called Lucy’s Legacy: The Hidden Treasures of Ethiopia
