[chottala.com] truth of gods will



This is the truth and the reality of truth . And never underestimate gods will ;
 

NEW DELHI – For nearly 30 years, India and Bangladesh have argued over control of a tiny rock island in the Bay of Bengal. Now rising sea levels have resolved the dispute for them: the island's gone.

New Moore Island in the Sunderbans has been completely submerged, said oceanographer Sugata Hazra, a professor at Jadavpur University in Calcutta. Its disappearance has been confirmed by satellite imagery and sea patrols, he said.

"What these two countries could not achieve from years of talking, has been resolved by global warming," said Hazra.

Scientists at the School of Oceanographic Studies at the university have noted an alarming increase in the rate at which sea levels have risen over the past decade in the Bay of Bengal.

Until 2000, the sea levels rose about 3 millimeters (0.12 inches) a year, but over the last decade they have been rising about 5 millimeters (0.2 inches) annually, he said.

Another nearby island, Lohachara, was submerged in 1996, forcing its inhabitants to move to the mainland, while almost half the land of Ghoramara island was underwater, he said. At least 10 other islands in the area were at risk as well, Hazra said.

"We will have ever larger numbers of people displaced from the Sunderbans as more island areas come under water," he said.

Bangladesh, a low-lying delta nation of 150 million people, is one of the countries worst-affected by global warming. Officials estimate 18 percent of Bangladesh's coastal area will be underwater and 20 million people will be displaced if sea levels rise 1 meter (3.3 feet) by 2050 as projected by some climate models.

India and Bangladesh both claimed the empty New Moore Island, which is about 3.5 kilometers (2 miles) long and 3 kilometers (1.5 miles) wide. Bangladesh referred to the island as South Talpatti.

There were no permanent structures on New Moore, but India sent some paramilitary soldiers to its rocky shores in 1981 to hoist its national flag.

The demarcation of the maritime boundary — and who controls the remaining islands — remains an open issue between the two South Asian neighbors, despite the disappearance of New Moore, said an official in India's foreign ministry, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak on international disputes.

Bangladesh officials were not available for comment Wednesday.

[BANGLA-IT] ICCE-18 Alaska, call for papers, July 2-10, 2010



It has been some time since we last communicated, feel free to inform interested friends to present papers.

David Hui,    March 22, 2010

 

ICCE-18  Anchorage, Alaska, USA, July 4-10, 2010

 

18th International Conference on Composites or Nano Engineering

www.uno.edu/~engr/composite

 

Dear  shovan1209@yahoo.com 

 

NEWSLETTER dated March 22, 2010

 

Call for Nano/Composites/Metal/Polymers/Mechanics

papers

 

 (item 1) We have received overwhelming responses to our call for papers, however, many of them request more time to prepare the two pager for this ICCE-18 Alaska conference.  Thus, we are still accepting NEW paper titles at ICCE-18 Anchorage, so please inform many interested professor, researchers, colleagues, friends, especially students, and junior faculty members, who need visibilities.

 

(item 2) Interested authors should submit detailed two page short papers to David Hui, each page has two-column format, and short papers must have  as many graphs as possible to show results.  All short papers will be reviewed and published as short papers in World Journal of Engineering.  Selected full-length papers will be reviewed and published in list of selected journals. 

 

(item 3) If you wish to suggest and develop sessions, please inform D. Hui.  All topics on materials science and structures and chemistry, physics and biology, are welcomed.  However, we are interested in new topics in pure and applied science and engineering at ICCE-18 Anchorage.  This is because the scope of nano research is ever expanding to include almost every aspects of research advances in physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics, medicine, pharmacy, dentistry, aerospace, microscopy, structural mechanicsocean engineering,  environmental science, among others.

 

 (item 4) For authors whose paper have been accepted in ICCE-18, if you urgently need signed invitation letter, please inform me immediately. Interested authors should apply for travel visa early, and apply for funds to attend this conference.

 

 (item 5) Alaska is one of the most fascinating resort locations in the world.   It is a place where a typical senior professor may say, "I have been in almost all states except this state of Alaska".   The Alaska slogan is "the last frontier", because it is relatively unexplored and because it is one of the very few not yet polluted, full of natural wonder lands, under inhabited places in the world.  The Alaska glacier lake is most suitable for extremely busy professors, because it offers absolutely fascinating mind-refreshing feelings, so you can go back home later to continued to do your busy work.

 

Cheers

David Hui
