How To Save A Person Struck By Electricity

When a person is struck by electricity, the power should be cut off before putting him away.

If the shock happens at a high place, a prompt measure should be taken to keep him from falling or to take him down safely before grounding or cutting off electricity.

The rescuer should not directly touch the person shocked.

If the shock is caused by not grounding or ground connection removed, grounding should be regained.

Putting him away should be done by pulling his clothes with the hand or giving him a kick.

If he is shocked by the electricity below 500V, an axe must be used to cut off the live wire.

If he is attached to a single electrical wire, a dry wooden plank or a rubber sheet should be inserted just under the body, or an insulating rod should be held up after inserted between legs so that the electric shock through the body will be cut off.

A Shape of a Jug Good For Keeping Temperature Of Cold Beer

Beer drinkers often prefer to drink cold beer in a transparent jug.

Beer is preferable to use a small jug that can be emptied in one or two-sip for a cold drink, but such a drink does not make the point of drinking beer.

Therefore, beer-related manufacturers are trying to develop a kind of jugs that can keep the temperature of cold beer as low as possible.

A professor of thermohydrodynamics has published a research paper on an optimal shape of a beer jug that keeps the temperature of cold beer as low as possible.

He has made a lot of studies on designs of jugs based on physical laws.

He calculated the rate of heat transfer only based on a shape of a jug without considering external factors such as the temperature of the hand holding the jug or the material used for it.

He also assumed that the floor was insulated and heat was lost only from the top and the side. And the first temperature of beer was assumed to be the same, so that the heat transfer rate only varied with the jug shape, and the thermal resistance of the jug was neglected.

After the study, the professor found out that, to keep the temperature of the cold beer as low as possible, the jug should have a small bottom and a wide top.

Pyongyang, the cradle of our national culture, has had many fields, fertile land and it has been rich in water resources since olden times as it is surrounded by the Taedong River. The temperature has been neither cold nor hot, and it has had a lot of rainfall, which has been conducive to farming.

Like in the other regions, the peasants in Pyongyang regularly played drums and stigmas in the farming season and gave priority to the chorus leading people in order to achieve a great success in farming. In autumn they celebrated the rich harvest splendidly.

In modern times the role of the peasant band has increased in such a rich harvest game, and in this process the function of the peasant dance has been further enhanced.

From early morning, the peasants beat drums in the village entrance, blowing horns to gather villagers, and let the farmers�� musical instrument players precede the others to the paddy fields.

The peasants lessened their fatigue by dancing peasant dances during a break and they came back home playing farm music and dancing after work.

During the farming season, the peasants in Pyongyang played peasant music and danced to gain better results of their farming. At the time of the autumn harvest, when they had finished their farming, the whole villages turned out to play peasant dances, giving full play to the joy of rich harvest.

Green tea can help the elderly in preventing dementia

A study conducted by university researchers found that green tea is good for brain health if they drink it regularly.

The researchers found that drinking more than three cups of green tea each day reduced the area of gray matter damage.

Damage to gray matter results in Alzheimer's disease and cognitive decline.

These results were obtained in a joint study by several research institutes.

The research paper stated as follows.

“In this cross-sectional study, decreased gray matter injury in elderly people without dementia was found to be associated with intake of green tea rather than coffee. The results of this study suggest that drinking more than three cups of green tea a day helps to prevent dementia. In the future, vertical and basic studies are needed to confirm this result."
