Tallest man of the world


Mr. Leonid Stadnyk Ukrainian has now officially become the world's tallest man standing at a towering 8ft 5ins in tall.

Measuring an impressive 8ins taller than the previous record holder, Mongolia's Bao Xishun, it has long been suspected that Stadnyk should hold the official title of the world's tallest man.

Now the 37-year-old former veterinarian has always refused to be officially measured for the Guinness Book of Records as he hates his height and didn't want to be famous.

The towering giant who lives in Podoliantsi, a tiny village in Ukraine has called his height 'God's biggest punishment for me' and refuses to look in the mirror.

His extraordinary growth spurt started at the age of 14 after surgery on a benign brain tumour stimulated his pituitary gland, which is responsible for generating the hormones that boost growth.

Previously at school, the Ukrainian was one of the smallest boys in his class and he used to be known to fellow pupils as 'titch'.

But his condition known as acromegalic gigantism, saw him grow so fast that suit trousers which once fitted him perfectly were 12 inches too short within two years.

He now sleeps on two beds joined together lengthwise, weighs nearly 32 stone, and has 17-inch feet. His gargantuan palms measure more than a foot in diameter.

Smallest bird of the world


Many people of the world want to know about smallest bird in the world.But which bird like this?Here is an answer:

The Bee Hummingbird (Mellisuga helenae) is a hummingbird, and the smallest of all birds. It can be found in Cuba (where it is called the zunzuncito), including the Isle of Youth. Its mass is approximately 1.8 g, and it is about 5 cm (2 inches) long.

The male has the pileum and fiery green throat, iridescent gorget with elongated lateral plumes, bluish upper-parts, and the rest of the underparts mostly greyish white. The female is green above, whitish below with white tips to the outer tail feathers.

Female bee hummingbirds are bluish green with a pale gray underside. The tips of their tailfeathers have white spots. Breeding males have a reddish to pink head, chin, and throat. Non-breeding males look like females, except that their wingtips have blue spots. The female lays only two eggs at a time and they are bright orange with pink spots.

The bee hummingbird is the smallest bird in the world. Its body is about the size of a large bee. Like all hummingbirds, it is a swift, strong flier. It also can hover over one spot like a helicopter. The bee hummingbird beats its wings an estimated 80 times per second — so fast that the wings look like a blur to human eyes. During courtship displays the male may beat his wings at 200 times per second.

The brilliant, iridescent colors of the bee hummingbird's feathers make the bird seem like a tiny jewel. But the iridescence isn't always noticeable. It depends on the angle at which a person looks at the bird. The bird's slender, pointed bill is designed for probing deep into flowers. The bee hummingbird feeds mainly on nectar. With a tongue shaped like a long tube, the bird sucks up nectar — and an occasional insect or spider — just as if it were using a drinking straw. In the process of feeding, the bird picks up pollen on its bill and head. When it flies from flower to flower, it transfers the pollen. In this way, it plays an important role in plant reproduction. In the space of one day the bee hummingbird may visit 1,500 flowers.

Using bits of cobwebs, bark, and lichen, the female bee hummingbird builds a cup-shaped nest that is only about 1 inch in diameter. She lines the nest with soft plant fibers. In this nest she lays her eggs, which are smaller than coffee beans. She alone incubates the eggs and raises the young.

Masjid-i-Jahan Numa


The muslim world (out of india) has very interest to know about the Masjid-i-Jahan Numa commonly known as Jama Masjid of Delhi, is the national mosque of India. Founded by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan.This is the same emperor who builder of the Taj Mahal.This great mosque completed on 1656 AD, it is one of the largest and best-known mosques not only in India but in the world also. It is also at the beginning of a very busy and popular street/center in Old Delhi.

Masjid-i-Jahan Numa means "the mosque commanding a view of the world", and the name Jama Masjid is a reference to the weekly principal pray observed on Friday (the yaum al-jum`a) at the mosque. The courtyard of the mosque can hold up to twenty-five thousand worshippers. The mosque also houses several relics in a closet in the north gate, including a copy of the holy Qur"an written on deer skin.
The mosque was the result of the efforts of over 5,000 workers, over a period of six years. The cost incurred on the construction in those times was 10 lakh (1 million) Rupees.

Shah Jahan built several important mosques in Delhi,Agra.Azmir and Lahore. The Jama Masjid's floorplan is very similar to the Jama Masjid at Agra but the Jama Masjid is the bigger and more imposing of the two. Its majesty is further enhanced because of the high ground that he selected for building this mosque. The architecture and design of the Badshahi Masjid of Lahore built by Shah Jahan's son Aurangzeb in 1673 is closely related to the Jama Masjid in Delhi.

CONSTRUCTION
T
he courtyard of the mosque can be reached from the east, north and south by three flights of steps, all built of red sandstone. The northern gate of the mosque has 39 steps. The southern side of the mosque has 33 steps. The eastern gate of the mosque was the royal entrance and it has 35 steps. These steps used to house food stalls, shops and street entertainers. In the evening, the eastern side of the mosque used to be converted into a bazzar for poultry and birds in general. Prior to the 1857 war of Indian independence1857 , there was a madrassah near the southern side of the mosque, which was pulled down after the mutiny.


The mosque faces west. Its three sides are covered with open arched colonnades, each having a lofty tower-like gateway in the centre. The mosque is about 261 feet (80 m) long and 90 feet (27 m) wide, and its roof is covered with three domes with alternate stripes of black and white marble, with its topmost parts covered with gold. Two lofty minarets, 130 feet (41 m) high, and containing 130 steps, longitudinally striped with white marble and red sandstone, flank the domes on either side. The minarets are divided by three projecting galleries and are surmounted by open twelve-sided domed pavilions. On the back of the mosque, there are four small minarets crowned like those in the front.

The dome of the Jama Masjid.
Under the domes of the mosque, is a hall with seven arched entrances facing the west and the walls of the mosque, up to the height of the waist, are covered with marble. Beyond this is a prayer hall, which is about 61 meters X 27.5 meters, with eleven arched entrances, of which the centre arch is wide and lofty, and in the form of a massive gateway, with slim minarets in each corner, with the usual octagonal pavilion surmounting it. Over these arched entrances there are tablets of white marble, four feet (1.2 m) long and 2.5 feet (760 mm) wide, inlaid with inscriptions in black marble. These inscriptions give the history of the building of the mosque, and glorify the reign and virtues of Shah Jahan. The slab over the centre arch contains simply the words "The Guide!"

The mosque stands on a platform of about five feet (1.5 m) from the pavement of the terrace, and three flight of steps lead to the interior of the mosque from the east, north, and the south. The floor of the mosque is covered with white and black marble ornamented to imitate the Muslim prayer mat; a thin black marble border is marked for the worshippers, which is three feet long and 1 ½ feet wide. In total there are 899 such spaces marked in the floor of the mosque. The back of the mosque is cased over to the height of the rock on which the mosque stands with large hewn stones.

Every day thousands over muslims are praying here.

The killer of worlds most beautyfull river


Once a very young girl dancing all time with laugh.The Indian Government tided her and killed her by made
of farrakka barrage.A 3km long dam located 10 km from the Indian side of the border between India and Bangladesh, in the state of West Bengal.This is the Padma now making cry the millions poorest persons of Bangladesh.

The Padma River the downstream of the Ganges more precisely, the combined flow of the Ganges and the Jamuna after their confluence at Goalandaghat.. In Bangladesh the Ganges is popularly known as the Padma from its point of entrance at Manakosa and Durlabhpur unions of shibganj upazila, nawabgonj district. This name (Padma or Podda) is sometimes applied to the Ganges as far up as the point at which the Bhagirathi leaves its rightbank, and according to the Hindus, it takes the sanctity of the Ganges with it. It is hydrographically more correct to use the name Ganges to refer to the river up to its confluence with the Jamuna or Brahmaputra and the downstream after the confluence as the Padma. The Padma is also sometimes wrongly referred to as the Ganges. The river between Aricha and Sureshwar (Chandpur) is therefore best called Padma.

look the Padma after farrakka barrage:

The Padma is 120 kilometres long and from 4 to 8 km wide. The very important Goalandaghat-Chandpur steamer route is mostly on this river. Near Tepakhola, 14 km from Goalandaghat, the small Faridpur Khal distributary takes off from the rightbank. Fifty kilometres further down the Arial Khan takes off from the rightbank. Fourteen kilometres further downstream the Lohajang river falls into it at Lohajang upazila on the leftbank, and the Kristanagar river branches off from the opposite side. A few kilometres from Lohajang, the Shosha Khal and the Naria Khal take off from the rightbank, join up and as one stream falls into the Arial Khan south of Madaripur. The Padma joins the Meghna 5 km from Sureshwar in a maze of shifting shoals and new born land from river. The Lower Meghna is actually a continuation of the joint flow of the Padma and the Meghna.

Beauty of The padma:
Beauty of padma is incredible.World famious nobel award winner writer Rabindranath On the 16th May, 1893 wrote in Bangla a letter to Indira Debi, his niece from his Kuthibari in Selaidah, Kushtia: "Often I wonder, will I ever be reborn under this sky studded with so many stars? If yes, will that be the same quiet evening in the same corner of Bangladesh where I could lie back on my cozy bed - satiated and carefree in my jollyboat floating on the placid Gorai river? I will perhaps never again meet this beauty of evening in my reincarnated life. Scenario would be changed. And then will I be in the same frame of mind? Who knows? Well, I might meet many an evening like this, but none of those, I am sure, would be like the tranquil evening that so lovingly alighted upon my chest embracing me with tufts of her dense hair spread out wide!?I am not sure whether any lady from Bangladesh will ever be crowned as a Miss World for her physical beauty. But, if there were a competition for a Mr. World who always visualised a lady in anything - a unpredictable river hurrying fast, an evening looming up or a patch of dark cloud with silvery frills floating in the azure sky - the golden crown would go to Rabindranath Tagore.

The river Padma, to Tagore, was such a lady. Tagore even made his wife Mrinalini's life simply cheerless by his obsession with the river Padma so much so that Mrinalini compelled her husband to leave Selaidah for Calcutta on the excuse of their daughter's impending marriage with the hope that he would never come back to the Padma; after all, no lady wants her husband spending most of his creative time for anything or anybody outside of home. But this crazy guy bounced back to Padma time and again whenever there was a chance he could steal.

The Padma was all in Tagore's life, dream and imagination. He fell in love with Padma when as a child visiting Selaidah he first found the frolicsome river behaving like a whimsical damsel--sometimes quiet, composed and drowsy and at other times restless, furious and hungry. It was in Selaidah, once a silent and remote hamlet, where Rabindranath as an adult first made an eye contact with Padma sleekly dressed in her red-bordered off-white silk 'shari'. All his life Tagore was infatuated with Padma. One year before his death while musing over his bygone days he wrote: "Selaidah with Padma, always skimming and smooching each other, was the only venerable place where first as an adolescent and later as an elderly I immersed myself to drink my literary nectar.?

But Tagore souls also crying now becuse the Indian killed her lady (The Padma) by Farrakka barrage.

Shah faisal Mosque


There are many nice and lager mosque in the world.But the Shah Faisal Masjid in Islamabad, pakistan is among one of the largest mosques in the world.. This is a national mosque of Pakistan.. It is a popular masjid in the Islamic world, and is renowned for both its size and its architecture covering an area of 5,000 square meters with a capacity of 300,000 worshippers.

The impetus for the mosque began in 1966 when the late King faisal Bin Abdul Azij of Saudi Arabia suggested it during a visit to Islamabad. In 1969, an international competition was held in which architects from 17 countries submitted 43 proposals. After four days of deliberation, Turkish architect vedat dalokay design was chosen. Construction of the mosque began in 1976 by national construction of Pakistan, led by Azim Borujerdi, and was funded by the government of Saudi Arabia, at a cost of over 130 million Saudi riyals (approximately $120 million USD today).

King Faisal bin Abdul Aziz was instrumental in the funding, and both the mosque and the road leading to it were named after him after his assassination in 1975. The mosque was completed in 1986, and used to house the International Islamic University. Many conservative Muslims criticised the design at first for its non-conventional design and lack of the traditional dome structure, but virtually all criticism was eventually silenced by the mosque's scale, form, and setting against the margalla hills upon completion.

The masjid has an area of 5,000 square meters and can hold about 300,000 worshippers, including those in the adjacent grounds. It is one of the largest mosques in the world. Its relatively unusual design fuses contemporary lines with the more traditional look of an Arab Bedouin's tent, with its large triangular prayer hall and four minarets. However, unlike traditional masjid design, it lacks a dome, and like a tent, the weight of the main prayer hall in the center is supported by the four minarets. The minarets borrow their design from Turkish tradition and are thin pencil like. The interior of this prayer hall holds a very large chandelier and its walls are decorated with mosaics and calligraphy by the famous Pakistani artist sadeqain. The mosaic pattern adorns the west wall, and has the 'kalima' writtern in early kufic script, repeated in mirror image pattern.
The masjid's architecture is a departure from the long history of south Asian muslim architecture. However, in some ways it makes a bridge between Arabic, Turkish and Pakistani Muslim architectural traditions.

OLDEST MOSQUE IN BANGLADESH



Mosque city Bagerhat District is in South-western Bangladesh in the Khulna Division. It is a historically rich part of the country with some great attractions. One of its most main attractions is the Mosque City of Bagerhat.

The city of Bagerhat is situated at the point where the Ganges and Brahmaputra rivers meet. In the heart of Bagerhat’s suburbs you’ll find an ancient city that is known as the Mosque City of Bagerhat. The city was founded by Ulugh Khan Jahan, a Turkish general who lived in the 15th century. The Mosque City of Bagerhat was originally known as Khalifatabad and today it is a World Heritage Site one of only three to be found in Bangladesh.

What makes the Mosque City of Bagerhat so special is that the city not only has a large number of mosques, but it’s infrastructure bears witness to considerable technical skill, which must have been hard to accomplish back in the 15th century. Many of the mosques and other Islamic monuments to be found in this strongly religious ancient city were built of brick – something that was not a commonly used building material at the time.

However, most people come here, not to marvel over the strength of the stone used to build these mosques, but to gaze up at the mighty, domed structures themselves. There are a number of different mosques in the Mosque City of Bagerhat. The Sixty Pillar Mosque, also known as the Shatgumbad Mosque, is one of the oldest mosques in Bangladesh. The striking edifice has more than sixty pillars and eighty-one domes! It is built of brick and decorated with terracotta.
The building was established by a Muslim saint known as Khan Jahan Ali who ruled Bagerhat during the 15th century. As far as is known, the mosque has mainly been used as a prayer mosque, an assembly hall for Muslims in times gone by, and as a Madrasa.

While the Shatgumbad Mosque is by far one of the most interesting attractions to be found here, it is certainly not the only one. The Sona Mosque is also quite interesting, as is Khan Jahan Ali’s tomb complex and tank. Also worth seeing are the Ghora Dighi, the Kodla Math, the Durgapur Shiva Math, the Mongla Port, the Sundarban and the Rupsha Bridge. So visit Bagerhat and discover a great architectural legacy in this small corner of the country for yourself.

Kaptai lake


There are many natural and manmade lake on the world.kaptai lake is the one of the biggest manmade lake on the world.But the nature making its beauty like heaven.Any visitor once come here falls in love with its miracle beauty.If you don’t visit Rangamati you will not discover a big portion of natural beauties of Bangladesh. From Chittagong a 77 km. road amidst green fields and winding hills will take you to Rangamati. It is also connected by waterway from Kaptai. This is the only place to visit through out the year. Rangamati expresses her full beauty in rainy season. Trees becoming greener, waterfalls are in full tide, the river Karnaphuli in her full wave in this season. If you already visited Rangamati in winter, we advice to go there again in monsoon; you will feel the difference of nature yourself.



Kaptai Lake is located in south-eastern Bangladesh or in the Kaptai sub district of Rangamati of Chittagong Division. The lake was created as a result of building the Kaptai dam, on the Karnafuli River, as part of the Karnaphuli Hydro-electric project. The Kaptai Lake's average depth is 100 feet (30 m) and maximum depth is 495 feet (151 m).


Construction of the reservoir for the hydro-electric plant began in 1956. As a result, 54,000 acres (220 km2) of farmland in the Rangamati District went under water and created the lake.
This hydro-electric project was funded by the United States. The project was finished in 1962. International Engineering Company and Utah International Inc. received the contract for construction of the dam. The dam is 670.6 meters long, and 54.7 meters high. The dam has a 745 feet (227 m) long spillway containing 16 gates. Through the spillway 5,25,000 cusec of water can pass every second.




The lake has become an important resource for some other considerations. It has created a diversified and long waterway. Many places that used to take a day or even more to reach have now become an hour's trip by speedboat or launch. It has become much easier to exploit forest resources that had earlier been inaccessible. The whole lake is now a great tourist attraction. The lake's contribution to the development of agriculture and fishery is significant. Since the water level of the lake is maintained at different heights in different months of the year, the lakeshores are under an automatic irrigation system and are very fertile. People practice controlled farming in about 6,075 ha of land on leasehold basis through agreements with the local government.
chakma village

The estimated life of the lake is 90 years, at the end of which its bed is expected to be fully covered by silt. Meanwhile, the lake continues to serve as a valuable reservoir for hatchery and fish production as well. Fish produced in the lake meets local demand and is also supplied to Dhaka and other parts of the country. The average annual production of fish is more than 7,000 tons. However, turbidity is high during the monsoon, which inhibits plankton production. The runoff carries a high nutrient load, and as the water clears, production intensifies. Blue-green and green algae, and diatoms dominate the phytoplankton community, which are important food for clupeids and carps. The zooplankton population is dominated by the rotifers. Crops of other zooplankters are very low, a characteristic of most tropical waters.

Its important morphometric and hydrographic features are as follows: surface elevation 31.1m, surface area 58,300 ha, volume 524,700 cu m, total annual discharge 1,707,000 cu m, storage ratio 0.31, mean depth 9m, maximum depth 32m, outlet depth 15.5m, mean annual water level fluctuation 8.14m, growing season 365 days, total dissolved solids 76 ppm and specific conductance 144 µmhos at 25ºC.

Largest bird of the world


Common name: Ostrich
Scientific name: Struthio camelus
Origin:Africa

The Ostrich stands can grow to stand 9 feet tall, weighing in at 345 pounds.
The diet of the ostrich mainly consists of plant matter, though it eats insects. It lives in nomadic groups which contain between five and 50 birds. When threatened, the ostrich will either hide itself by lying flat against the ground, or will run away. If cornered, it can cause injury and death with a kick from its powerful legs. Mating patterns differ by geographical region, but territorial males fight for a harem of two to seven females.

Royel Bengal Tiger biggest Tiger of the world


The Royel Bengal tiger is the larger tiger in the world.It has traditionally been considered the second largest subspecies after the Siberian tiger but Northern Bengal Tigers are often larger than Siberian tigers.It is the most common tiger subspecies, living in a variety of habitats, including grasslands, subtropical and tropical rain forests, scrub forests, wet and dry deciduous forests, and mangroves.

Male Bengal Tigers measure around 274-290 cm, sometimes up to 310 cm with their tail. The tail of a large male is usually 85-95 cm long. Their weight is normally around 200-220 kg (440-485 pounds), although those in the north of India and Nepal have an average weight of 235 kg (518 lb). Females are considerably smaller, measure about 250 cm long, a weight of 100-130 kg (220-287 lbs) and reach seldom more than 160 kg (352 lb).Officially, the heaviest Bengal Tiger with confirmed weight was a male of 258.6 kg (570 lbs) and was shot in Northern India in 1938, however the heaviest male captured by scientist at this time has a male of 270 kg (595 lb), tagged in Nepal in 1984. They are able to stay out in cold weather because their skin is able to handle the temperature all over in any kind of weather. It coat is yellow to light orange and the stripes range from dark brown to black, the belly is white and the tail is white with black rings.


The Sundarbans tigers have had a reputation as man-eaters since at least the 17th century (Bernier 1670) but, elsewhere, man-eating is usually the result of a tiger’s incapacity, through age or injury, to catch normal prey. A chance encounter in which such a tiger kills someone in a defensive reaction and feeds on the body may lead it to target people as easy prey. A man-eating tigress may introduce her cubs to human prey. But deaths and injuries caused by surprised tigers or a tigress defending her cubs from intrusion do not usually lead to man-eating. Schaller (1967) agrees with the view of Corbett (1957): "Tigers, except when wounded or man-eaters, are on the whole very good tempered. If warnings (growls, rushes and roars) are disregarded, the blame for any injury inflicted rests entirely with the intruder."

Now this is open secret that billion dollers black gold are hiding in sand of the worlds longest sea beach area coxs bazar.strange matter is that due to apathy and lack of coordination among Bangladesh Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, Ministry of Science and Technology, Bangladesh Atomic Energy Commission, Geological Survey of Bangladesh, Bureau of Minerals these valuable minerals are left uncared for, unutilised and wasted for a long time.
Black gold taken from beach sand

Very recently the International Titanium Company of Australia in a report submitted to the Government of Bangladesh says that Rutile and Zircon can be extracted form the sea beach sand at a rate of 2.49 per cent and 0.46 per cent respectively which is highest in the world!!!

The Australian Titanium Company has applied to the Government of Bangladesh for grant of a mining lease licence for extraction of minerals at Cox's Bazar sea beach.
