SCHMIDT STING PAIN

Posted in general on October 15, 2009 by vjv

Schmidt Sting pain index is a scale to show the relative pain scales of different Hymenopteran stings. An entomologist named Justin.O. Schmidt published a number of papers on this subject at the Carl Hayden Bee Research center and claims he achieved this feet only after been stung by the majority of the stinging Hymenoptera.

He index the stinging from 0 to 4. 0 for stings which are ineffective against humans, 2 a familiar pain such as those of a wasp sting or common bee and 4 for the most deadly and painful stings.  He has concluded that Bullet ants aka Paraponera clavata stings induce more excruciating pain immediately and make the hand numb to pencil point pressure, as well as trembling.

Schmidt Sting pain Index:

1.0  –   Sweat bee

    1. – Fire ant
    1.8  – Bullhorn acacia ant
    2.0  – Bald faced hornet
    2.0  – Yellow jacket
    2.x   – Honey bee and European hornet
    3.0  – Red harvester ant
    3.0  – Paper wasp
    4.0   – Pepsis wasp

4.0+ – Bullet ant

TARANTULA HAWK

Posted in general on October 12, 2009 by vjv

Tarantulas are very large kind of spiders  which can eat even mice, birds and big lizards while tarantulas hawks are spider wasp which hunts them for its larvae. Their bright rust colored wings and blue-black body alarms other insects and potential predators that they are dangerous. A female tarantula hawk can sting up to 7mm  and it is rated as the most painful in the whole insect world.

They prefer capturing female tarantulas than male since they emaciated from ignoring food during reproductive seasons. Hawks capture, sting and paralyze the spider with its sting and roll it over a nest and lay an egg inside the nest so that the young Tarantulas spider feed on the still-living spider as soon as it gets birth.

But the male tarantulas doesn’t feed on spiders and tend to feed off the flowers of milkweeds, soapberry trees or mesquite trees. Then they go over the top of tall plants and watch for female tarantulas which are ready for reproduction and thus referred to possess “hill-topping”

Bullet ant as its name implies is powerful and potent sting which gives pain as being shot with a bullet. Locals call them “Harmiga Veinticuatro” or “24 hour ant” from the 24 hours of pain will follow this ant’s stinging. But this ants biological genus name is Paraponera and species is P.clavata.  Bullet ant is largely found in the Nicaragua south rainforests to Paraguay and are of 18-25 mm long.

According to Schmidt Sting Pain index, Bullet ant gives the most pain and it is purported to be greater than any other Hymenopteran.  The bite is said to cause burning and throbbing which continues even for 24 hours.

The Satere-Mawe community of Brazil, a boy has to endure stung by these ants 20 times without screaming to enter manhood. Poneratoxin is the separted neurotoxic peptide isolated from the venom of Bullet ants.

Martyr Bhagat singh

Posted in general on September 30, 2009 by vjv

‘Inquilab Zindabad’ (Long live the revolution) is the famous quote from the martyr freedom fighter Bhagat singh and the sentence was told by him just before he got executed.  He  was a well known Indian freedom fighter, considered to be one of the most influential revolutionaries of the Indian independence movement.  He joined the Hindustan republican association at the request of Professor vidyalankar, which was then headed by Ram Prasad Bismil and Ashfaqulla khan. Bhagat singh along with Ram Prasad Bismil and Ashfaqulla khan planned the great “Kakori train robbery” through which they looted money for the freedom struggle.

Bhagat planned to take revenge on Chief. Scott, who headed the attack against the people who led the protest against the Simon commission and killed Lala Lajpat Raj with lathis at the chest. But his friend Jai Gopal mistakenly identified J.P. Saunders, a Deputy Superintendent of Police as Scott and signalled Bhagat singh to shoot.  He shot him dead but escaped from the police to Lahore.  In the face of his action, the British government enacted the Defense of India act to give more power to the British police. So Bhagat singh planned to stop the act and put a bomb over the central legislative assembly where the ordinance was going to be passed.

Bhagat singh and his partner Batukeshwar dutt gave themselves up for arrest after the bomb and were sentenced to Transportation for life for the bombing on June 12, 1929. He rejected  others help to get him released  and told “I am confident that my death will do more to smash the British Empire than my release”.  While in a condemned cell in 1931, he wrote a pamphlet entitled Why I am an Atheist in which he discusses and advocates the philosophy of atheism.

The aim of life is no more to control the mind, but to develop it harmoniously; not to achieve salvation here after, but to make the best use of it here below; and not to realise truth, beauty and good only in contemplation, but also in the actual experience of daily life; social progress depends not upon the ennoblement of the few but on the enrichment of democracy; universal brotherhood can be achieved only when there is an equality of opportunity – of opportunity in the social, political and individual life.” — from Bhagat Singh’s prison diary

Pandit Ram Prasad Bismil (1897-1927) was one of the great Indian independence fighters, who also participated in the Kakori train robbery.  The famous freedom fighter and Martyr Bhagat singh joined the Hindustan republican association at the request of Professor vidyalankar, which was then headed by Ram Prasad Bismil and Ashfaqulla khan. Bhagat singh along with Ram Prasad Bismil and Ashfaqulla khan planned the great “Kakori train robbery” through which they looted money for the freedom struggle.

Actually Ram Prasad Bismil joined the revolutionary organization Hindustan Republican Association (HRA) in his youth and came in contact with many other revolutionaries including the Great martyr freedom fighter Bhagat singh. They planned to take revenge over the attack of Lala lajapat Raj in the simon commission protest rally and looted the money for the freedom struggle.

GOOD DECISIONS ARE BASED ON TWO KINDS OF ANALYSIS

Posted in general on September 28, 2009 by vjv

Before making any decision in business, you make two kinds of analysis: TECHNICAL and PERSONNEL. Let’s think about these for a moment

A technical analysis answers questions such as:

  • Will this new product attract new sales without cutting into our present sales volume?
  • Can we make money on the product if we do sell it?
  • Can we make the product with our present facilities?

A personnel analysis deals with questions such as:

  • Will the salesmen push the new product?
  • Can they learn how to handle it as fast as we are planning to get it out on the market?
  • Can our production department retrain its people fast enough to make this product on our schedule?

Personnel or people decisions such as these cannot be made by the personnel manager; they must be made by the executives. Only the lines executive is in a position to compare and blend the two kinds of analysis so that the personnel analysis supports the technical analysis. The proper blend produces a good business decision.
