Writing about suicides before execution or imprisonment.


Cyanide capsule of Himmler

Today we saw it happen. One man who was in the court about the war crimes drink the poison and became a martyr. His name was Slobodan Praljak.  This is the thing, what those people who were responsible for the security of that court, should be prepared. The case is some kind of what happened in the Nurnberg trial. Some of the people who were sentenced to death were got the suicide ampules in the cells and they committed suicide in their cells. Those people were Hermann Goering and Heinrich Himmler. The last one was not judged in Nurnberg because he killed himself before court same kind of capsule, what Goering used before the execution.


When we are talking about those suicides, then we must concern that the poison was in the hollow tooth, and then those men could avoid the hangman. But there were, of course, the rumors that those men got the "zombie poison" or tetrodotoxin, and some of their friends in the allied lines helped them to escape from the hangman. But there is another theory, about those suicides. This theory was that Himmler and Goering could not stand the raise to the hang rope, and some men wanted to be sure, that Goering and Himmler will ever speak nobody about their secrets. Or did Goering try to get sympathy from the court of Nurnberg by attempting the suicide by weakened poison capsule, but somebody changed the suicide pill.


The same question as in Goering's case will be asked in this Croatian general case will always be asked the question, "did that man know, that he took real poison"? Or did somebody change the capsule? If somebody actually changed those capsules or dose, would that man try to get sympathy from the court? If that is true, would that suicide committed for the reason, for getting sympathy from the court, what convicted that man for 20 years imprisonment. Or why this man was able to take that poison in the courtroom? This is the question what will ask many times after this case.

MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible

   "This chip-based "tractor-beam," which uses an intensely focused beam of light to capture and manipulate biological particles without damaging the cells, could help biologists study the mechanisms of diseases."(Interesting Engineering, MIT’s Star Wars-inspired ‘tractor beam’ uses light to capture, manipulate cells) MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible. The tractor beam just hovers the nanoparticle in air or medium, and then the laser or some other electromagnetic system transports oscillation into those particles. The ability to make cells and other particles hover in the system makes it possible to create particles whose energy level or resonance frequencies are accurately calculated things.  That thing makes it possible to create things that transmit wave movement accurately and cleanly. This is one version of the use of a tractor beam. Modern tractor beams are like acoustic tweezers where sound waves lock the object in its cr

The new observations tell that the thunderstorms form gamma-rays. That could make gamma-ray lasers possible.

That could make gamma-ray lasers possible. The process has been observed by the NASA (Lockheed) ER-2 research plane, which is a modified U-2 spy plane. The gamma-ray formation in thunderstorms. Where lightning and electric fields release electrons that impact the air molecules and water droplets is an interesting thing. That thing opens the route to solving many mysteries.  "The general physics behind how thunderstorms create high-energy flashes of gamma radiation is not a mystery. As thunderstorms develop, swirling drafts drive water droplets, hail, and ice into a mixture that creates an electric charge much like rubbing a balloon on your shirt. Pos

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th
