know about EARTHQUAKE

An earthquake (also known as a quake, tremor or temblor) is the result of a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves.

The seismicity, seismism or seismic activity of an area refers to the frequency, type and size of earthquakes experienced over a period of time.

 Earthquakes are measured using observations from seismometers

The surface of the Earth is in continuous slow motion. This is plate tectonics--the motion of immense rigid plates at the surface of the Earth in response to flow of rock within the Earth.

There are two main causes of earthquakes.

Firstly, they can be linked to explosive volcanic eruptions; they are in fact very common in areas of volcanic activity where they either proceed or accompany eruptions.

Secondly, they can be triggered by Tectonic activity associated with plate margins and faults. The majority of earthquakes world wide are of this type. Most earthquakes are causally related to compressional or tensional stresses built up at the margins of the huge moving lithospheric plates that make up the earth's surface .

            The immediate cause of most shallow earthquakes is the sudden release of stress along a fault, or fracture in the earth's crust, resulting in movement of the opposing blocks of rock past one another.

            These movements cause vibrations to pass through and around the earth in wave form, just as ripples are generated when a pebble is dropped into water.

                Volcanic eruptions, rockfalls, landslides, and explosions can also cause a quake, but most of these are of only local extent.

            Shock waves from a powerful earthquake can trigger smaller earthquakes in a distant location hundreds of miles away if the geologic conditions are favorable. 

Earthquakes occur where the earth's plates meet along plate boundaries.

For example as two plates move towards each other, one can be pushed down under the other one into the mantle. If this plate gets stuck it causes a lot of pressure on surrounding rocks. When this pressure is released it produces shock waves. These are called seismic waves.

 The waves spread out from the point where the earthquake started is the focus.

 More damage is done near the focus. The point on the earth's surface directly above the focus is the epicentre.

Health secrete of old people of hunza

                                                       

Health secrete of hunza is based on balanced diet and balanced activities all of this equilibrium is due to mountainous area, all the people from hunza are farmers, working whole year in fields for better crops. People of Hunza have made the secrets of their remarkable way of long and healthy life available to the rest of the world. They have evolved a way of living, eating and thinking that has substantially lengthened their lifespan and dramatically reduced susceptibility to most of the illnesses to which "civilised" people are prone.

Fresh nutrients from fresh plants makes the people healthy, herbal plants from mountains haven’t any side effect as compared to other medicines. Daily hard work creates a balanced routine whole year.

In old time hunza people manage to live to over one hundred years of age in perfect mental and physical health and men father children at ninety. Cancer, heart disease, heart attacks, high and low blood pressure and childhood diseases are virtually unknown. In fact, sickness is extremely rare. There were no such diseases in Hunza but know due to increase in modernity or due to change in life style environment is totally disturbed e.g. (environmental pollution, giving less preference to natural products). Nowadays peoples are strongly suffering in brain disorders because of mental stress producing conditions e.g. (daily increase in crime scenes).

The thing i have observed is only difference in their diet. The old Hunza people are involve in agriculture, returning all organic matter to the soil. Their food consisted chiefly of raw fruits and vegetables, sprouted pulses, whole grains, nuts milk products from goats, and occasionally a small portion of meat, usually during holidays and weddings. Since chickens have a natural urge to peck at seeds, and since seeds are more valuable than money in Hunza, until recently no chickens were allowed in the area.
