Today I learned about something called a Limnic eruption. To describe it briefly, this extremely rare natural disaster occurs when massive amounts of Carbon Dioxide are suddenly released from the deep, dark, depths of a lake.here are only two Limnic eruptions on record, both in Cameroon-The first one, in 1984, choking 37 people to death, and the second one, in 1986, disposing of a staggering 1800 people and various animals. A few weeks ago, I read and studied Albert Camus' novel, The Plague.
In many countries, engagement rings are placed on the ring finger of the left hand. At one time it was believed that this finger contained a vein (the vena amoris) that led to the heart. This idea was popularized by Henry Swinburne in A treatise of Spousals, or Matrimonial Contracts (1686).
In Greek & Arabic culture the engagement ring for a man and woman is to be worn on the right hand. Once married it is moved to the left. In westen society, its the complete opposite.In the USA americans wear engagement ring on left hand, and then when they marry, they add a band on top of it.
