Great Barrier Reef – UNESCO World Heritage site

One of the 7 natural wonders of the world, the Great Barrier Reef is located off the coast of Australia’s Queensland and is home to a vast array of marine life.

The Great Barrier Reef, which extends for over 2,300 kilometers (1429 miles) along the northeastern coast of Australia, is home to over 9,000 known species.

The Great Barrier Reef consists of about 3,000 individual reefs of coral, and the biodiversity they contain is remarkable. There are animals you would probably recognize, such as dolphins, turtles, crocodiles, and sharks. There are also venomous sea snakes, brightly colored worms, and large algae. These species interact to form a complex and delicate ecosystem dependent on the coral reef for survival

The Great Barrier Reef in Danger!!

The coral and algae have evolved together to survive within a particular temperature range. As sea temperatures rise due to climate change, the algae begin to produce products toxic to the coral, which in turn expel the algae. This process is called bleaching because the coral becomes white. A 2018 study showed that about one-third of the Great Barrier Reef had experienced substantial damage from bleaching. The researchers also found that large amounts of coral had died in the warming water almost immediately—even before there was time to expel their algal partners. Climate change is not the only threat to the reef. Chemical runoff and other forms of pollution, coastal development, and overfishing all can harm coral and reduce biodiversity.

Facts about the great barrier reef

1. It is the world’s largest reef system

2. It is home to an incredible diversity of species. •30 species of whale, dolphin, and porpoise
•6 species of turtle
•17 species of sea snake
•More than 1,500 species of fish – incredibly, 10% of the world’s fish species inhabit the Great Barrier Reef.

আমরা হাঁচি কেন? হাঁচি সম্পর্কে সবকিছু।

আচু! হাঁচি সর্বজনীন: বিরক্তিকর এবং সন্তোষজনক, মজার এবং বিব্রতকর, শোরগোল এবং কখনও কখনও স্নো। কিন্তু আপনি কি জানেন আমরা কেন হাঁচি দিই?

চিন্তা করবেন না ..

DUCKDESK আপনাকে হাঁচির কারণ, এর প্রক্রিয়া, স্বাস্থ্যের প্রভাব এবং সম্ভাব্য সবকিছু সম্পর্কে প্রতিটি তথ্য জানাবে।

আমরা কেন হাঁচি দিই?
আমাদের সাইনাসের স্নায়ুগুলিকে উদ্দীপিত করার সময় যে শারীরিক প্রক্রিয়াটি হাঁচি শুরু করে তা ঘটে, এটি শরীরকে আমাদের নাক দিয়ে বায়ু বের করতে বলে জোর করে সেগুলো পরিষ্কার করতে।

ঠান্ডা লাগলে কেন আমরা হাঁচি দেই? যখন একটি ঠান্ডা ভাইরাস অনুনাসিক কোষকে সংক্রামিত করে, তখন আমাদের দেহ প্রদাহজনক মধ্যস্থতাকারীদের মুক্ত করে প্রতিক্রিয়া জানায়। এগুলি নাকের জ্বালা সৃষ্টি করে যা হাঁচি দেয়।

হাঁচি আমাদের জন্য কী করে?
হাঁচি ফুসফুস থেকে জোরালোভাবে বায়ু বের করে দেয় যা আমাদের নাক এবং মুখ থেকে বেরিয়ে আসে। যখন এই বায়ু বের হয়, তখন এটি শ্লেষ্মা নিয়ে যায়। এটি আমাদের দেহের জন্য একটি ভাল জিনিস, কারণ শ্লেষ্মায় বিদেশী কণা থাকতে পারে যা আমাদের নাকের ভিতরে জ্বালা করে, অথবা ব্যাকটেরিয়া যা আমাদের দেহের ক্ষতি করার হুমকি দেয়।

হাঁচি কি স্বাস্থ্যকর?
হাঁচি একটি প্রাকৃতিক এবং দরকারী জৈবিক কাজ, এবং এটি নিয়ে সাধারণত চিন্তার কিছু নেই। যদি ঘন ঘন হাঁচি কয়েক সপ্তাহেরও বেশি সময় ধরে চলতে থাকে এবং এর কারণ কী তা আপনি জানেন না, তাহলে কীভাবে হাঁচি বন্ধ করবেন এবং সম্ভাব্য অ্যালার্জেনগুলি সনাক্ত করবেন সে সম্পর্কে আপনার ডাক্তারের সাথে পরামর্শ করুন।

Why do we sneeze? Everything about sneezing.

Achoo! Sneezing is universal: annoying and satisfying, funny and embarrassing, noisy and sometimes snotty. But do you know why we sneeze?

Don’t worry..

DUCKDESK will let you know each and every fact about sneezing -its cause, its mechanism, health effects and everything possible.

Why do we sneeze?
The physical process that triggers sneezing happens when the nerves in our sinuses are stimulated, this tells the body to expel air through our noses forcefully to clear them.

Why do we sneeze when we have a cold? When a cold virus infects nasal cells, our bodies react by releasing inflammatory mediators. These cause the nasal irritation that leads to sneezing.

What does sneezing do for us?
Sneezing involves a forceful expulsion of air from the lungs that comes out of our noses and mouths. When this air comes out, it takes mucus with it. This is a good thing for our bodies, as the mucus might contain foreign particles that irritate the insides of our noses, or bacteria that threatens to harm our bodies.

Is sneezing healthy?
Sneezing is a natural and useful biological function, and it’s usually nothing to worry about. If frequent sneezing continues for more than a few weeks and you don’t know what the cause is, consult your doctor for advice on how to stop sneezing and identify possible allergens.

WARNING
MIGHT CONTAIN SPOILERS AHEAD!

Based on a true story, this semi biographical film makes appearance dominates the awards nominations. Eastwood’s The Mule was published very late which made it very doubtful of its appearance in the nominations . What with the elderly actor/director giving a fine measured performance in a film that is often paced gently and beautifully shot.

The Mule is about an elderly man, Earl (Eastwood), 90 years old, and a horticulturalist fallen on hard times. A man who has neglected his family for a business which has failed in the era of the internet.

He find himself offered work driving because of his clean license, and ends up transporting drugs for the Cartel.

He becomes the Cartel’s most successful mule, and evades an elaborate attempt by the DEA to identify him.

As the payloads get bigger, Earl seems to enjoy his dubious employment. He discovers his cargo and yet continues. He puts the profits into his daughter’s wedding, into rebuilding a local club for old folks. He buys himself back into the lives he has ruined.

The film opens with Earl missing his daughter’s wedding, preferring to buy a round for the wedding party of a group of strangers while attending a flower conference. He shows no guilt, no cognisance of his confused priority.

So when we see him packing his possessions into a truck as his home is foreclosed we don’t care. He’s popular with colleagues, but he has spurned his family.

Arriving at his granddaughter’s engagement party we see she idolises him, latching onto his postcards sent from his travel, and flying in the face of the frigid reception of his (ex)wife and daughter. Those he has let down. It is this fragile old man who gets brought in as an unwitting mule.

There’s humour, there’s some pathos, but overall it’s a narrative this reviewer struggled to care about. He isn’t particularly likeable, he’s just old. He dispenses wisdom that he never heeded himself. He’s an ex-veteran (yay, American hero) who knowingly continues furthering a drug trade that kills people (boo, traitor).

Twice in the film we see Earl getting fresh with two young women simultaneously. I’m pretty sure the whole reason The Mule exists is so 88 year old Clint Eastwood could have a three-way on screen.


If you’re old, it’s ok to be corrupt. It’s okay to illegally profit from corrupt regimes. It’s okay to be sexist. To be racist.

It is tempting to see this as a commentary on Trump and Trump’s America, and if this had been made by another director, I think that’s how we would read it. But it seems like more of an endorsement. In 2016 Eastwood told us to “get over it” with regards Trump’s racism and mysogyny, and that’s pretty much what we’re expected to do with Earl.

Eastwood as an actor is still engaging, but as a director, he’s misjudged, out of time and place.


The movie is actually a lot more pleasant than the tense trailers make it look. ... But I recommend seeing this movie anyway, as it's an engaging watch and a worthy entry into Eastwood's filmography. Grade: B. “The Mule” is rated R for language throughout and brief sexuality/nudity.
