The work is in the Top 10 scientific books of the year by Booklist, Top 11 books of the Daily Beast and was voted by the New York Times Book Review as a Notable Book in 2012. (Source: Medisights) The faces of murderers are different With disease origin, David Quammen weaves an exceptional story, a detective novel with very different, but also very real, killers. They are viruses, bacteria and protozoa that cause disease in animals, but sometimes, they will change their target and jump to humans. Each chapter of the book is a journey in pursuit of a new criminal, led by a team of detectives from all over the world. The book is the notes of David Quammen in the process of accompanying them, following the traces to find the culprit. After the first chapter on the terrible virus that decimates both horses and humans, the Ebola virus emerges through a dark story, with dead gorillas stacked on top of each other, carrion in the woods and magic. The story doesn’t need the usual Ebola hype to create a macabre atmosphere (with bloody tears and melted organs) and the author doesn’t need to, because the disease itself terrible enough. He is more interested in delving into these diseases, learning what we already know about them and how that helps us prevent new diseases from appearing in the future, while limiting their consequences. their fruit. In each chapter, the diseases gradually become clear, starting with just a couple of rumors, a few mysterious deaths that seem unrelated to each other. The investigation process gradually unravels the problem, until finally the truth of the culprit is revealed. Along the way, we’ll see the myriad ways pathogens can move from host to host – through feces, secretions, mucus and blood – and explore possible dangerous behaviors leads to exposure: climbing trees, drinking date sap, eating or simply touching dead animals. The author also looks for unintentional accomplices who are animals that carry the disease before it is transmitted to humans: pigs, birds, monkeys, gorillas and bats. The Detective’s Journey However, the real heroes here are the detectives – scientists who work non-stop, from the lab to the field, looking for answers to cases committed by petty murderers. baby caused. Not only talented in describing how the virus works, David Quammen is also very successful in painting portraits of those heroes: from molecular biologists studying SARS “with the instincts of a epidemiologist with the courage of a red-faced monkey”, to the ecologist with a passion for exotic oriental dishes, to the veterinary pathologist with “the tough and stern body of a The former rugby player has passed the age of 40. The historical details can be found in the book as well: 19th century scientists used optical microscopes to look for tiny organisms in the blood cells of malaria patients, while the virus continued to hide behind a veil of mystery until the invention of the electron microscope in the 1930s. Readers also see important historical milestones such as: President Hoover banned the import of parrots into the United States; an outbreak of arthritis and a rash, preceded by contact with deer ticks, in the town of Lyme in Connecticut; and a series of seemingly harmless, but actually deadly, cases in a series of male patients in the United States in the 1980s. Author David Quammen. (Source: Town Hall Seattle) David Quammen has carried us around the world, from the labs to the field with investigators – bat traps in China, monkeys in Bangladesh, deep into the jungles of Cameroon. Towards the end of the book, we’ll leave reality a little behind and embark on a fictional voyage to the origins of HIV along the Congo River. The author also asserts that the appearance of diseases transmitted from animals, pathogens that find us from other organisms, is not new, but is on the rise. He seeks to find the reason behind that phenomenon in the final chapter of the book: the huge population of humans, along with the immense amount of livestock, the destruction of natural habitats, damaged ecosystems. disruption – things that can completely turn into a debate about nature’s revenge on humanity. David Quammen is one of today’s most influential journalists and authors, a three-time US National Magazine Award recipient. His articles have been published in famous magazines such as National Geographic, New York Times, Rolling Stone and Harpers.

Most recently, netizens have shared a clip recording the scene of Ho Van Cuong – Phuong My Chi participating in a TV program and performing the duet song “Dau’s wife”. In this performance, Ho Van Cuong plays the husband, and Phuong My Chi plays the wife in 2020. The couple Phuong My Chi – Ho Van Cuong is considered to be a good match with great support from the dance troupe. Notably, in the clip, many people commented that the voice of adopted son Phi Nhung had many shortcomings. This young male singer’s voice is low and hoarse, not as clear and emotional as when he was famous. This is an inevitable consequence of Ho Van Cuong’s voice breaking during puberty. According to the male singer’s share, during the time when his voice broke, he rarely received shows, sang less, and of course made less money than Phuong My Chi. “Like all boyfriends, when I hit puberty, my voice broke. It was around 2016-2017 or something. I was so shocked, I couldn’t believe my voice broke. Then the other day. When I go to sing, I feel sad because my voice is not as clear and sweet as before. Ho Van Cuong said. Paying attention, adopted son Ho Van Cuong shared: “ After singing, I went down to the stage, some aunts and uncles gathered around saying that I sang with a ‘loud voice’, and my voice was out of tune because my voice broke. When I got home, I just closed the door and cried. I know this is inevitable but I still wish it didn’t happen to me. After a year of getting used to breaking my voice, I cried all the time.” Ho Van Cuong talked about his difficult period: “ The feeling of being criticized by the audience for singing is no longer good, singing with a ‘loud voice’ is very sad. Nhung’s mother comforted and encouraged her a lot. Mom showed me how to adjust my voice after it broke. My mother also taught me how to catch my breath and sing so that I don’t show off anymore. By now, I have overcome this psychological pressure.”

Victim Mary Reeser and the scene of the body burned to ash, leaving only a portion of the leg left. Photo: ATI On July 2, 1951, Pansy Carpenter, Mary Reeser’s landlord, stopped by the tenant’s apartment to send a telegram. When Pansy knocked on the door, no one answered. She put her hand on the doorknob and felt unusually hot, so she called the police. Police immediately went to the apartment at 1,200 Cherry Street (St. Petersburg town, Florida, USA) when he discovered that Marry Reeser, 67 years old, had died in a mysterious fire. Reports say the victim’s body was burned to ashes by a “white” flame – a color displaying temperatures between 1,300-1,500 degrees Celsius, equivalent to that in a crematorium. The victim’s body was almost completely ashes, leaving only one leg left, with the sandals intact, and no trace of carbon black. A part of Reeser’s spine and skull were also found at the scene. Although the apartment was still very warm and smoky when the police arrived, most of the furniture was still intact. Only plastic objects placed near the chair of Mrs. Reeser were melted and deformed. The carpet had a scorch mark. Most of the chair where the victim was sitting burned, but the wall behind that was not cracked or scorched. The rest of the room seemed unaffected by the fire that burned Mary Reeser. The sheets nearby are also not burnt, damaged, or even dirty. The scene of a mysterious fire in the apartment of Mary Reeser. Photo: ATI It takes about 1,600 degrees Celsius to heat for 3 or 4 hours to cremate a body. Therefore, the incident has made the authorities confused. Due to the mysterious circumstances of the case, it is suspected that Mrs. Reeser was a victim of spontaneous human combustion. It is when a person ignites their own flame from a chemical reaction inside their body, without any apparent ignition from the outside heat source. Although there have been documents about the human body igniting itself as early as 1663, not all scientists are convinced by it. Sheriff Cass Burgess was the detective investigating the Reeser case at the time. “This fire is too strange a thing,” he told reporters. Apartment diagram where the “ashen woman” case took place. The fire location is close to the kitchen, opposite the bed is still intact. Photo: thedeadhistory On 7/7/1951, Burgess and his team sent the evidence box from the victim’s apartment to the FBI laboratory (in Washington DC) for chemical analysis. Some of the evidence included ash, shoes, part of the carpet, mortar from the walls, pieces of fibers suspected from the victim’s nightgown, fragments of bone, and remains of the chair Reeser sat on when she died Fire…. The public is also very attentive to the case. Investigator Ed Silk said at least 15 amateur detectives called him to come up with their theories. The detective team released a statement saying it was a “accidental death from unexplained fire”. That doesn’t mean they are concluding the investigation, but just to help organize the burial of the victim, Burgess explained. Meanwhile, the FBI determined that Mary Reeser’s death was not caused by self-ignition. However, the incident is still a mystery. The FBI believes that Mary Reeser’s own body fat that fueled the fire that burned her could have come from smoking a cigarette and falling asleep. Ms. Reeser was set ablaze and “as soon as the body caught fire, almost complete destruction occurred from the victim’s own adipose tissue”. It is true that human adipose tissue is very flammable, and even easier in fat people. And Reeser is a huge woman, weighing 77kg. Investigators examine the crime scene. Photo: ATI The FBI’s explanation also has some basis, but it provides only partial explanation, as there are still some anomalies. For example, a stack of newspapers lined up next to the victim’s chair is still intact, not even scorched. Dr. Wilton M. Krogman, a professor of physical anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania, an experienced fire researcher, disagrees with the FBI’s conclusions. Mr. Krogman has written about all five deaths he investigated in the past. “I cannot imagine such a complete cremation without burning the apartment at all,” the professor wondered. Some other explanations are given one after another, such as lightning, explosives … However, that night there was no lightning at St. Petersburg. The test sample of the evidence from the scene also showed no signs of any gasoline or flammable substance. After an investigation went nowhere, the police finally concluded the cause was “a forgotten cigarette”. However, the question from here is, will someone die from being unable to wake up even while on fire? If Mrs. Reeser was awake, why couldn’t the housekeeper Pansy hear the screams? Finally, after exactly 70 years, the death of the “ashen woman” remains a mystery that challenges investigators.

Super speed skateboard Appeared quite often in cartoons and theaters, however, in the comic book version, Conan rarely uses this treasure. Uncle Agasa created Conan’s super fast skateboard to help him chase down criminals. Designed to look like a normal skateboard, but the super powerful engine is built in so it can reach the speed of a race car in an emergency. The weak point of the skateboard is that it depends on solar energy, making it difficult to use at night. However, this disadvantage was overcome in the movie “The last wizard of the century” (1999) with improvements that can store energy for later use. Bubble Belts The use of the belt made by Professor Agasa is the ability to create a ball with the touch of a button, through which Conan can chase and control criminals. Many culprits were knocked down by the lightning kick from the detective without realizing what happened. Each cast only allows Conan 10 seconds to kick, so he must quickly catch the opportunity. Currently, the belt is designed with 3 options including ordinary ball, giant giant ball and fireworks ball, after a few seconds it will explode to create beautiful fireworks. Shoes increase strength According to Professor Agasa, the shoes use electricity and magnetic fields to stimulate Conan’s foot muscles allowing him to kick objects with tremendous force. This item is often combined with Conan with the ball to create lightning shots that can defeat heavy opponents. Before being equipped with a ball belt, Conan used these super powerful shoes to shoot into everything from buckets, helmets, baseball to cans. The shoes with shiny belts have made Conan a good pair of jewels, many times helped the kid detective group and friends out of danger. Anesthesia clock Disguised as a normal school watch, Conan’s watch actually hides a needle laced with anesthetic that can be shot at the person who needs to be lulled. The “victim” is mainly a zinc-bearded detective Mori, however there are times when Conan does not aim properly, so he shoots someone by mistake. After that, Conan will fake the voice of the sleeping person to solve the case, because normally, no one believes in a kid detective. Some of the other uses that he discovered during the use of anesthesia watches must be mentioned as neutralizing criminals, preventing others from committing crimes or protecting himself. Even Gin had been shot by Conan, but he responded by shooting himself in the hand to reduce the anesthetic effect of the drug. Eyeglasses The lens has been upgraded by Professor Agasa so Conan and Haibara can zoom in on distant targets and enhance visibility even in the dark. The glasses are used by Conan quite flexibly, sometimes tracking the super thief Kid, sometimes checking objects in the distance, other times looking for victims in the midst of a snowstorm. Depending on the comic or cartoon that Conan uses the left or right glasses, it is likely that Professor Agasa has upgraded both the glasses to make them easier to use. Crime tracking glasses Radar integrated in the glasses helps to locate the enemy’s coordinates within a radius of 20km. Those who are using the detective badge can also be tracked by these damn glasses. To activate the radar on the glass, the user can press a small button on the left-hand side. The glasses in some episodes also have a micro microphone that helps Conan hear secret conversations. Child detective badge Outwardly looking like an ordinary kid’s badge, the badges actually help Conan and the rest of the Detective Boys communicate from a distance, acting as a walkie-talkie. The badges also emit signaling that can be identified using crime tracking glasses. The tracking radar screen on the eyeglasses displays the child badges as dots. In the 18th film, these badges are upgraded by Professor Agasa so that the Child Detective Team can communicate at a long distance. Clock flashlight In addition to the anesthetic gun design, Conan’s wristwatch also incorporates a high-intensity flashlight capable of illuminating large areas in the dark. This helps the detective guy discover a suspicious clue without fear of ignoring anything. The collar changes the voice Professor Agasa designed this bracelet for Suichi Akai when he disguised as Subaru Okiya. Being disguised as someone else is not enough, Suichi knows that he also needs to change his voice so that the person facing him will not be suspicious. The necklace is cleverly designed to be hidden behind the shirt collar./.
