Name of Allah Almighty written on Fish

Allah Almighty written on Fish phenomena pictures images pics photos galleryThese pictures of miracle fish are contributed by:

Mr. Mahmood Ghulam Patel.

According to Mr. Mahmood Ghulam Patel, he is an exporter of fish. He likes to keep fish tanks in his home too and has 8 fish tanks in his house. When he bought this fish, which is called as OSCAR, it was very small. As it kept growing the print on its body started becoming beautiful and bright; as it had become so big (Mash Allah), he shifted it to a 3" feet fish tank. Then one day he was staring at the fish and he saw some unusual writing in Arabic on it. He was surprised and shouted and said, "Subhan Allah". He called his family and they all shocked to see the name of Almighty Allah written on the body of fish. It is a blessing of Allah that this fish is in his house; as they never thought that a fish bought from a fish market valuing so less would now value so much and they are thankful to ALLAH for whatever he has given them.

SHANGHAI, China -- Doctors in Shanghai on Tuesday were considering surgery options for a 2-month-old boy born with an unusually well-formed third arm.

Neither of the boy's two left arms is fully functional and tests have so far been unable to determine which was more developed, said Dr. Chen Bochang, head of the orthopedics department at Shanghai Children's Medical Center.

"His case is quite peculiar. We have no record of any child with such a complete third arm," Chen said in a telephone interview.

The boy, identified only as "Jie-jie," also was born with just one kidney and may have problems that could lead to curvature of the spine, local media reports said. Jie-jie cried when either of his left arms was touched, but smiled and responded normally to other stimuli, the reports said.

Monster Catfish Attacked Dogs

 Monster Catfish pics pictures images photos galleryThe catfish had terrorized the German town for years and when a dozen dogs fell victim for the beast, fishermen in the area started a fish hunt for the giant catfish. But it eluded them all. Now the catfish has been found dead and dog owners are happy. German biologists, who for a long time has studied the European catfish, Siluris glanis, reveals that it has more secrets that we ever dreamt of. Among other things it can breath air if there is an extreme drought and even crawl over dry land!


After a dozen dogs had vanished and at least one of them, the Dach hound Roff, had been seen swimming in the lake and suddenly drawn down into the depth, the catfish was named "Jaws" by German media (which alluded to Steven Spielbergs breakthrough with a film dealing with a man-eating shark).

The only thing that the heartbroken owner found of his Dach hound Roff was tufts of hair and the dogs collar.

Fishermen from all over Germany was flocking at the little lake in the park in the hope of catching "Jaws", but the catfish eluded but amateurs and professionals. Now the "monster catfish" has been found dead, washed up on a desolated beach where it was found by the runner Werner Gruber.

Lead poisoning

Gruber has got the authorities permission to stuff the giant catfish and to a local newspaper he commented: "Jaws could have died of lead poisoning because many fishermen lost their tacle in the lake, but it could also have died of old age".

The catfish is an extremely large and varied fishs in the order of Siluriformes. That order includes 31 families and 400 genus with about 2,200 species, according to German researchers, who are considered among the best fish biologists in the world.

Catfish environment includes everything from cold mountain streams to stillwater in the low lands to smaller dams and even polluted, oxygen deficient meres.

Extreme drought

Because the catfish are equipped with a specially constructed breating organ, certain species can survive temporarily without water during extreme drought, and move shorter distances over land in their search for a suitable lake to live in.

Certain species can also breathe oxygen, which is absorbed in the blood through thin capillaries which covers the inner walls of the intestines.

Other species, like Pangasius sutchi for instance, uses its swim bladder as an oxygen supply. Still others is equipped with carefully prepared "air chambers" which transports the oxygen to the lungs.

Extreme differencies

The catfish also shows extreme differencies in size. The world record for a catfish is fantastic 20 feet and a weight of 830 pound. The worlds smallest catfish on the other hand, Corydoras pygmaeus, is only one inch long.

A catfish is usually recognized by its barbels un the lower jaw. These looks very much like the whiskers on a cat and thats actually how it got its name - catfish.

The catfish are naked because it lacks scales and instead it has a thick, leathery skin or bone plates. It can reach the ripe old age of 80 years.

The Mekong Giant Catfish

The Mekong Giant Catfish pictures images photos pics galleryWWF hopes the catch will highlight the plight of the Mekong giant catfish, which is a critically endangered species. It is Southeast Asia's largest and rarest fish, and is one of a number of giant fish species under investigation in a WWF and National Geographic Society (NGS) joint conservation project.

A century ago the Mekong giant catfish was found the entire length of the river from Vietnam to southern China. Today, the population is in decline, scientists estimate the number has decreased by about 90 percent in the past 20 years.

The Mekong River Basin, where WWF has worked for more than ten years, is home to more species of giant fish than any other river on earth. It is also the most productive river fishery in the world, generating $1.4 billion each year, and providing the primary source of protein for much more than the 73 million people that live along the river.

Jamie Pittock, Head of the WWF's Global Freshwater Programme: "This catfish is as heavy as a grizzly bear. It's amazing to think that giants like this still swim in some of the world's rivers. This amazing species could be gone within the next few years if nothing is done to save it."

Species like the Mekong giant catfish are listed as critically endangered by the World Conservation Union, meaning it's at risk of extinction. Dams are often cited as one of the major threats facing catfish as they block migration routes. Without the ability to move up and down rivers, the fish have fewer opportunities to breed.

Dr Zeb Hogan, WWF conservation science fellow: "Due to the precarious state of the Mekong giant catfish and other large fish, the effort to protect these amazing creatures is a race against the clock. We must act now before species like the Mekong giant catfish are gone forever."

The WWF/National Geographic Society joint project has been exploring rivers and lakes for the largest freshwater fish around the world since the end of last year. The Mekong giant catfish is one of its flagship species because the conservation measures needed to protect it would also help protect a whole range of other species.

The Human Skull Falls Off

Human Skull Falls Off picture images photos pics galleryKOLKATA, India (Reuters) - Hundreds of people are thronging a hospital in the eastern Indian city of Kolkata to see a patient holding a piece of his own skull that fell off.

Doctors say a large, dead section of 25-year-old electrician Sambhu Roy's skull came away Sunday after severe burns starved it of blood.

"When he came to us late last year, his scalp was completely burned and within months it came off exposing the skull," Ratan Lal Bandyopadhyay, the surgeon who treated Roy told Reuters Wednesday.

"Later, we noticed that the part of his skull was loosening due to lack of blood supply to the affected area, which can happen in such extensive burn cases."

The piece came off Sunday and hundreds of people and dozens of doctors now crowd around his bed, where he lies holding the bone.

Bandyopadhyay said the skull's inner covering and the membrane which helps produce bone was miraculously unaffected, allowing fresh bone to grow.

"When the skull came off, I thought he will die, but we noticed a new covering on his head forming and that might have pushed the 'dead skull' out," he said.

While possible, such cases are extremely rare.

Roy was injured and almost killed when he was electrocuted while repairing a high voltage wire last October.

"Doctors say a new skull covering has replaced the old one, but I am not letting go of this one," he told Reuters.

He intends to keep his prized possession for life and not hand it over to the hospital when he leaves: "My skull has made me famous," he says.

Two Kinds Of Sea Dragons

The weedy sea dragon and the leafy sea dragon.
Sea Dragons are arguably the most spectacular and mysterious of all ocean fish. Though close relatives of sea horses, sea dragons have larger bodies and leaf-like appendages which enable them to hide among floating seaweed or kelp beds.

Rare "Rainbow" Spotted Over Idaho

Rare June 19, 2006—It looks like a rainbow that's been set on fire, but this phenomenon is as cold as ice.

Known in the weather world as a circum horizontal arc, this rare sight was caught on film on June 3 as it hung over northern Idaho near the Washington State border.

The arc isn't a rainbow in the traditional sense—it is caused by light passing through wispy, high-altitude cirrus clouds. The sight occurs only when the sun is very high in the sky (more than 58° above the horizon). What's more, the hexagonal ice crystals that make up cirrus clouds must be shaped like thick plates with their faces parallel to the ground.

When light enters through a vertical side face of such an ice crystal and leaves from the bottom face, it refracts, or bends, in the same way that light passes through a prism. If a cirrus's crystals are aligned just right, the whole cloud lights up in a spectrum of colors.

This particular arc spanned several hundred square miles of sky and lasted for about an hour, according to the London Daily Mail.

Thousands of residents of Tianmen, Hubei Province, have flocked to see a rare turtle-like creature caught by an elderly man in a nearby reservoir.

Some think that the animal, weighing in at 8.3 kilograms, looks like an alligator.

It has three rows of horns on its shell, a pair of eyes like an owl, and a tail measuring over 30 centimetres.

It is currently being taken care of by local experts, who are trying to determine what exactly it is.

The Baghdad Battery

The Baghdad Battery images pics photos pictures galleryThe ancient battery in the Baghdad Museum, as well as those others which were unearthed in Iraq, are all dated from the Parthian occupation between 248 BCE and 226 CE. However, Dr. Konig also found copper vases plated with silver in the Baghdad Museum, excavated from Sumerian sites in southern Iraq, dating back to at least 2500 BCE. When the vases were lightly tapped, a blue patina or film separated from the surface, which is characteristic of silver electroplated onto copper base. It would appear then that the Parthians inherited their batteries from one of the earliest known civilizations.

UFO Photographed Over - Brzostek, Poland

From Brian Vike, Director
HBCC UFO Research

Location: Brzostek, Poland
Time: 2:00 p.m.

The unidentified object was first noticed as it flew above the city of Brzostek at high altitude. Then it changed course and flew over a market in the center of the city.

The person who made this photograph said that he was outside at his home when he saw this strange for him object. He call it fantastic! The witness took a few photographs from his garden outside his home. The photographer of the object quickly ran to his balcony, and took several more photos of the object .

The motion of this object was up and down. The object moved to the center of the small city and flew forward and away. The witness took about 10 photographs of this object .

Reaction of the newspaper " Wiadmosci Brzosteckie " wrote that they saw the pictures and they are the original photographs and asked the readers for their thoughts.


Ufo allien phenomena pictures images photos pics gallery
Analysis - Even though the overall brightness of Garden Shot 2 is darkner than 1, the object
shows decreasing levels of density consistent with a large object, at some distance, moving
away, effected by the slight haze and sunlight. Again, a set point for alignment was chosen
(in this case the large tree to the right), and both images were superimposed atop one another.
(note: "K" is the black level present in the image. The darkest spot, the bush below it
has been used as the base figure as an object relatively close to the camera).


UFO Allien Phenomena Pics Pictures images photos galleryThe object also appears to be rotating, as a small nitch or protrusion can be seen in Shot 1
at about 1 o'clock on the edge of the disc, and then in Shot 2 at about 10, o'clock,
suggesting a counter clockwise rotation.

Scientists Find "Smallest Fish"

Smallest Fish pictures images photos pics galleryResearchers have found the smallest known fish on record in the peat swamps of the Indonesian island of Sumatra. Individuals of the Paedocypris genus can be just 7.9mm long at maturity, scientists write in a journal published by the UK's Royal Society. But they warn long-term prospects for the fish are poor, because of rapid destruction of Indonesian peat swamps. The fish have to survive in extreme habitats - pools of acid water in a tropical forest swamp. Food is scarce but the Paedocypris - smaller than other fish by a few tenths of a millimetre - can sustain their small bodies grazing on plankton near the bottom of the water. To keep their size down, the fish have abandoned many of the attributes of adulthood - a characteristic hinted at in their name. Their brain, for example, lacks bony protection and the females have room to carry just a few eggs. The males have a little clasp underneath that might help them fertilize eggs individually.

Being so small, the fish can live through even extreme drought, by seeking refuge in the last puddles of the swamp; but they are now threatened by humans.

Widespread forest destruction, drainage of the peat swamps for palm oil plantations and persistent fires are destroying their habitat.

Science may have discovered Paedocypris just in time - but many of their miniature relatives may already have been wiped out.
