Man previously mauled by bear returns for illegal agarwood harvest
nobodysfriend replied to snoop1130's topic in Isaan News
Protected forests within national parks are not open to exploitation by locals . Will they ever learn this ? Protected forests are protected because they have valuable wildlife and plants that need protection from the people . To protect what becomes increasingly rare is a benefit to all people who like a healthy environment . Poachers think of their own gain only , their greed leads to destruction .- 1 reply

The life work of Abdus Salam was key to defining a theory of particle physics still used today, and it laid the groundwork for the 2012 discovery of the God particle, the particle that holds the physical fabric of the universe together as Abdus Salam viewed it theoretically and introduced it in the electroweak and strong interactions theory of the quantum field.[64] He may be categorized as the first Muslim nobel laureate in science and only one in physics till now.[65][66] Abdus Salam openly identified himself as an Ahmadi Muslim throughout his life. He was a devoted member of the Ahmadiyya community and actively participated in its activities. However, it's worth noting that the Pakistani government declared the Ahmadiyya community as non-Muslim in 1974, which created significant challenges and discrimination for Ahmadis, including Dr. Salam.

What a good life they had ... it changed by now . Macron is a gambler and , most probably , he will lose .

The Quest for Life Beyond Earth: A Journey Through Time and Space
nobodysfriend replied to Social Media's topic in World News
There never was ' nothing ' . We better wake up now , our species is busy destroying itself and the planet we live on . Of course , there is intelligent extraterrestrial life . even within our galaxy . What is it all good for ? It is an evolutionary process , an experiment that will separate the intelligent species from the ones who only think that they are intelligent , but do not manage to enable their own further evolution , and fail and disappear ... Everything is possible , but nobody knows what that implies ... One thing is certain : everything is limited in time , and time itself is relative . heic0306a.tif -
