[FunOnTheNet] Longest living bulb celebrates 110years.

 

LIVERMORE'S CENTENNIAL LIGHT Bulb 110 Year Countdown! Okay folks. Here it is. The official countdown until the Centennial Bulb's 110th birthday Party! Saturday, June 18th, 2011. Mark your calendars! World's longest-lasting light bulb turns 110, Challenges trend in throw-away devices. Over 110 years, Livermore's Centennial Light Bulb has come to be recognized as the world's longest-lasting light, beaming 24 hours a day. Its 4-watt output and hand-blown glass bulb cast a soft crimson glow from a filament about the width of a human hair. First installed at the fire department hose cart house on L Street in 1901. Shortly after it moved to the main firehouse on Second. In 1903 it was moved to the new Station 1 on First and McLeod, and survived the renovation of the Firehouse in 1937, when it was off for about a week. During it's first 75 years it was connected directly to the 110 Volt city power, (subject to the power outages) , and not to the back-up generator for fear of a power surge. In 1976 it was moved with a full police and fire truck escort, under the watch of Captain Kirby Slate, to its present site in 1976 at Fire Station 6, 4550 East Ave., Livermore, California. It was then hooked to a seperate power source at 120V according to Frank Maul, Retired City Electrician, with no interuptions since. Declared the oldest known working lightbulb by Guinness Book of World Records.   sanskriti

Very original. Enjoy.

 

 

Why are wives more dangerous than the Mafia? The mafia wants either ur money or life... The wives want both! ==== Marriage is like a public toilet Those waiting outside are desperate to get in & Those inside are desperate to come out. ==== No Man Can Ever Be Satisfied with 4 things in life. (1) Mobile (2) A utomobile (3) TV (4) Wife Because there is always a better model in neighborhood. === Searching these keywords on Google `How to tackle wife?` Google search result, `Good day sir, Even we are searching`. === Compromising does not mean you are wrong and your wife is right. It only means that the safety of your head is much more important than your ego! === Imagine living with 3 wives in one compound and never leaving the house for 5 years.Osama Bin Laden must have called the US Navy Seals himself! === Whisky is a brilliant invention. One double and you start feeling single again. === A friend recently explained why he refuses to get to married. He says the wedding rings look like miniature handcuffs. === It takes thousand workers 2 build a castle, Million soldiers to protect a country, but just One woman 2 make a Happy Home --------- A Good Maid! === Funny quote on a husband`s T-Shirt: All girls are devils, but my wife is the queen -- -- -- -- -- -- of them.

@Fun12 - Ur my best friend .....!!

 

Because ur my best friend

Because you are my friend,
my life is enriched in a myriad of ways.
Like a cool breeze on a sweltering day,
like a ray of sunshine parting glowering clouds,
you lift me up.
In good times, we soar,
like weightless balloons
over neon rainbows.
In bad times, you are soothing balm
for my pummeled soul.
I learn so much from you;
you help me see old things in new ways.
I wonder if you are aware
of the bright seeds you are sowing in me.
I'm a better person for knowing you,
so that everyone I interact with
is touched by your good effect on me.
You relax me, refresh me, renew me.
Your bounteous heart envelops me
in joy and love and peace.
May your life be filled
with dazzling blessings,
just as I am blessed
by being your friend.
are you mine best friends?

[FunOnTheNet] How a lunar eclipse and volcanic ash create colourful phenomenon for moon-gazers

 



 

 

 

 How a lunar eclipse and volcanic ash create colourful phenomenon for moon-gazers

 

Seeing red:  How a lunar eclipse and volcanic ash create  colourful phenomenon for moon-gazers By DAILY MAIL REPORTER Last updated at 9:03 AM on 16th June 2011 Red colour most vivid in Asia Sky watchers were treated to a stunning lunar eclipse last night as ash in the atmosphere from a Chilean volcano turned it blood red. Scientists said the specific phenomenon - known as a 'deep lunar eclipse' - often exudes a coppery colour. But the intensity of the colour depends on the amount of ash and dust in the atmosphere. Luckily for moon-gazers, there was plenty of ash in the air so the moon appeared orange or red, especially in Asia.  Scroll down for video The moon, photographed by an observer in Tel Aviv, exudes a reddish colour during a deep lunar eclipse last night A composite picture showing the total lunar eclipse in the east of Beirut, Lebanon yesterday. People in the eastern half of Africa, the Middle East, central Asia and western Australia were able to enjoy the entire event The lunar eclipse is seen over the Atomium in Brussels, in the early hours of the morning, local time Air travellers haven't been so lucky: The ash has grounded hundreds of flights around the region. The dramatic event, the longest total lunar eclipse since 2000, turned the moon blood red for 100 minutes during the period of totality.   But Europeans missed the early stages of the eclipse because they occurred before moonrise. The eclipse began at 6.24pm and ended at midnight but sunset didn't occur in the UK until 9.19pm. The total lunar eclipse is seen above the old city walls during the Jerusalem Festival of Lights The moon is seen during different stages of the total lunar eclipse in Gaza town in the Gaza Strip, which borders Egypt and Israel   A boat sails by Manila Bay, Philippines, at dawn this morning under a red moon, while an airplane lands at Fiumicino International airport in Rome, Italy, during the lunar eclipse Scientists had reassured sky watchers that the eclipse could be safely observed with the naked eye. People in the eastern half of Africa, the Middle East, central Asia and western Australia were able to enjoy the entire event.  However, those in the U.S. missed out as the eclipse occurred during daylight hours. A partially eclipsed moon rises in the sky over Moscow, Russia, last night Enlarge  This graph shows when the total lunar eclipse was visible on Earth Today's Google Doodle paid tribute to the lunar eclipse with a video graphic The moon is normally illuminated by the sun. During a lunar eclipse the Earth, sun and moon are in line and the Earth's shadow moves across the surface of the full moon.  Sunlight that has passed through the Earth's atmosphere makes the moon appear red, brown or black. The moon travels to a similar position every month, but the tilt of the lunar orbit means that it normally passes above or below the terrestrial shadow. This means a full moon is seen but no eclipse takes place. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2003046/Lunar-eclipse-volcanic-ash-create-colourful-phenomenon-moon-gazers.html -------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
