Globalization

Hello everyone! I'm Jacopo Antonelli Drago, the creator of The Silence Of Black. Today I would like to talk to you about Globalization. But what is globalisation? Simple, indeed very simple. The definition of globalization is: Spread on a global scale, thanks to new means of communication, trends, ideas and problems. Racism, immigration, social media all this is part of globalization. Let's talk about immigration. Do we have a practical example of this? Yes, Italy. In Italy we are seeing the struggle between Salvini and immigrants. Why do immigrants flee their lands? The reason is very simple: War. War is always present in our world. But why war? Money, world economy. In Libya there are labour camps that pay a lot of money to the owners but destroy workers. Another Italian example is a very important novel worldwide. The Newlywed Promises. Written in 1800 by Alessandro Manzoni The Promised Married Is a historical novel set in 1600. This piece has a unique peculiarity. It represents all the great themes of today with a unique simplicity and was written in the 1800s. Immigration, racism, the mafia and more. I want to talk about immigration now though, so let's leave the other issues alone. Let's give a brief summary: Renzo and Lucia are two promised newlyweds who will have to fight with a local lord to be able to get married. In the end Don Rodrigo that is the lord man dies of plague and they can get married. There are so many stories within this book is one of the most important books ever, I invite you to read it. After a few chapters from the beginning Don Rodrigo's henchmen try to kidnap Lucia, who forced by perhaps superior had to leave his village with Renzo and his mother. In her escape, she remembers the good times she had in that mountain village. And she's practically an immigrant who leaves her homeland. But let's get away from the promised newlyweds to connect to Jazz. Musical genre born from the encounter of white culture with that of blacks. A very poor genre was initially considered a working song. For people who worked in plantations and mines. Sung in re-release form between them and a cappella. Born in New Orlean, America, he was watching racism against blacks. Until the Civil War, Jazz never entered into official music. Sewage war do you remember? I don't know, but I'm going to make a little recovery. In the 1800s North and South America were at odds with each other. A Republican and a slaveholder. Civil war that sees North America as the winner. Let's get away from Jazz, but let's continue on racism. Marthin Luther King JR. do you remember that? I hope so. A big quote of his was I have a dream: I have a dream that one day evan the state of mississipi a state sweltering in the heat of injustice, sweltering in the heat of oppression, one day will be transformed into an oasis of Justice and freedom. Very short quote to talk a little bit about writers against racism. Another was Tahar Ben Jelloun. Writer and poet French born in Fes, Morocco. Very recent book: Racism explained to my daughter. Book structured in the form of dialogue between the daughter and the father who wonder why racism existed.
Another big problem of modern times is food. Let's talk about it a little before we raise the problems. Foods are those substances which, when introduced into the body, are digested. Food has 5 functions: plastic, regulator, protective, energy, reserve.
Foods consist of one or more foods called food or nutrient ingredients
Organic principles: carbohydrates, fats, proteins
Inorganic principles: mineral elements, water
Food pyramid.
The food pyramid indicates a healthy and balanced diet.
Grains, fruit, meat and milk derivatives should be eaten daily. Monthly added fats and sugars. Mediterranean diet, daily cereals together with legumes, fruit and vegetables. Weekly: fish and white meat. Monthly red meat.
The problems of nutrition are: obesity, anorexia, bullimia, salmonella ...
Let's return to immigration precisely in the Italian constitution. Article 10 states that the foreigner, who is prevented in his country from actually exercising the democratic freedoms guaranteed by the Italian Constitution, has the right of asylum in the territory of the Republic, according to the conditions established by law.
We have come to the end. Thanks to everyone and see you soon!
-Jacopo

Isotopes in hair - the analysis of hydrogen and oxygen isotopes -

The discovery exploits a new hair analysis method that could help, in addition to police, even doctors, archaeologists and anthropologists in their research. In fact, one was created sort of "water mapping" that allows you to combine geographical areas with isotope values detected in the hair. Police forces are using this method to obtain the origin of some unidentified murder victims. Isotopes are forms of the same chemical element with different atomic weights, because they present a different number of neutrons in the nucleus (the stable isotopes are those that do not have radioactive decay). Three years ago two expected they founded IsoForensics, a company that uses stable isotope analysis to detect them Small variations of a chemical element. The team managed to map the concentrations of the stable isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen in the hair, discovering that they are a trace of those present in food and drinking water, but also in breathed...

Geometric optics

Hi, welcome back to the blog of " The silence of black ". Today we will deal with a topic that represents a pillar in the field of physics: " geometric optics ". Sometimes we associate and connect basic optics and geometric optics to each other, but in reality these electromagnetism branches have a concept that is anything but similar. Optics studies light radiation and associated phenomena, while geometric optics deals with those phenomena that can be described without the use of the wave concept. The latter began to spread in the early 1600s and for centuries we will see two different models of light contrast: the corpuscular model developed by Newton according to which light is a flow of microscopic particles and the wave model developed by Christiaan Huygens which in fact, from how we can deduce it from the model name, it defines light as a wave. With geometric optics we can explain: - the WAVES - the REFLECTION of light - the REFRACTION of light -...

The Atom

Every atom in your body comes from a star that exploded. And the atoms in your left hand probably come from a different star than the one in your right hand. That's the most poetic thing I know about physics: you are stardust. (Lawrence Maxwell Krauss) The atom is the structure in which matter is organized in the physical world and on whose basis it is divided into fundamental elements. Multiple atoms form the molecules. While atoms are in turn formed by subatomic constituents such as protons (with positive charge), neutrons (without charge) and electrons (with negative charge). It was so called because it was initially considered the smallest and most indivisible unit of matter. Towards the end of the nineteenth century, with the discovery of the electron it was shown that the atom was actually divisible. In fact, it is in turn composed of smaller particles, to which we refer with the term of subatomic particles.Leucus (5th century BC) founded a theory according to...

Giveaways donated

Yes ... I think this is the perfect gift for you! I am very happy to have given you for your little sister's birthday. Dear readers, this phrase began the decline of the family of poor Francis. One day, not much earlier than the birthday of little Berenice, the poor boy celebrated his birthday. On that day of great revelry, he expected everything as a gift, everything except an unusual object. In fact, his parents, together with most of his relatives, decided to give him a strange electronic tool !!! The eccentric gift was all but common, indeed it was decidedly unexpected. The cohesive and happy little family gave the poor boy a puppet in the shape of a living vacuum cleaner! Francesco, of course, reacted with all the serenity and composure he was capable of, destroying the table on which the various other gifts received were stored as well as most of the food available. After tormenting nights spent thinking, the young man decided to get rid of the ...

Thermology

Thermology studies the thermal exchanges between bodies and understands the transformations and transfers of energy between one system and another. • Temperature: temperature is an index of the degree of thermal agitation of the atoms or molecules that make up a body; it is therefore connected to the concept of kinetic energy. • Heat: heat is a way of transferring energy. There is therefore a substantial difference between the concept of heat and that of temperature. There are various methods of measuring how hot or cold a body is: • Thermal expansion: to measure how hot or cold a body is, it is necessary to resort to a phenomenon that always repeats itself in the same way, that is, thermal expansion; when heated, all bodies dilate, that is, increase their volume. • Thermoscope: instrument that exploits the phenomenon of thermal expansion and that allows you to check the temperature variations. • Thermometer: instrument that allows you to quantitatively measure the thermal st...
