Hifadhi ya gesi ya Helium yagunduliwa Tz


Tanzania ni miongoni mwa mataifa machache duniani yaliyojaliwa kuwa na rasilimali na madini mengi.
Na baada ya kugunduliwa kwa gesi asili huko Mtwara na dhahabu sasa watafiti kutoka Uingereza wamegundua hifadhi kubwa zaidi duniani ya gesi adimu zaidi ya Helium nchini Tanzania.
Watafiti kutoka chuo kikuu cha Oxford na kile cha Durham kwa ushirikiano na wataalumu wa madini kutoka Norway wamegundua uwepo wa takriban futi bilioni 54 za gesi hiyo ya barafu kama inavyofahamika.
Ugunduzi huo umefanyika katika eneo la bonde la ufa la Tanzania.
Katika taarifa kwa wanahabri huko Japan, watafiti hao wanasema kuwa uhaba wa gesi hiyo kote duniani ulikuwa umesababisha taharuki haswa kwa madaktari ambao wanatumia gesi hiyo adimu kuendesha mashine za utabibu zijulikanazo kama MRI scanners, mbali na kutumika katika mitambo ya kinyuklia miongoni mwa sekta zingine nyingi za kawi na teknolojia.
Kabla ugunduzi huo watafiti walikuwa wamebashiri ukosefu wa gesi hiyo baridi ifikapo mwaka wa 2035.

Mnamo mwaka wa 2010 Mwanfisikia mshindi wa tuzo la Nobel Robert Richardson alikuwa ametabiri kumalizika kabisa kwa gesi hiyo.
Ukosefu huo ulikuwa umesababisha wataalamu kuhimiza kutungwa kwa sheria itakayopunguza matumizi yake katika bidhaa zisizo za dharura kama vile kwenye vibofu kutokana na hali ya kuwa gesi hiyo ya Helium ni nyepesi kuliko ile ya Oxygen.
''Gesi tuliyoipata huko Tanzania inaweza kujaza silinda za gesi milioni moja nukta mbili za mashine za MRI'' alisema Chris Ballentine kutoka chuo kikuu cha Oxford.

Joshua Chooses God


Description

Life is all about choices. Whether we're facing times of trouble or enjoying periods of abundance, we can turn our backs on God, or we can choose to trust, obey, and serve Him.

One of the great leaders we meet in the Old Testament is Joshua. The name "Joshua" literally means "Yahweh is Salvation." He watched in awe as the Red Sea parted; he tasted manna in the desert; and he served faithfully for 40 years as Moses' right-hand man and military commander. And this warrior-leader lived up to his name. Joshua eventually led the Israelites to victory in Canaan—and into "all the good land the Lord had promised." Yet his greatest legacy came down to a choice he made: "But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD" (Joshua 24:15, NKJV).
What Does God Say? 
It's all about choices. Whether we're facing times of trouble or abundance, we can turn our backs on God... or we can choose to trust, obey and serve Him.
The simple fact is, God doesn't want us to add a little of Himself into our daily walk. He wants to consume our lives. He's not pleased with people who dabble in faith, and then forget Him later. The Lord desires us to live for Him—faithfully, consistently, day by day.
Joshua understood this. "Now therefore, fear the Lord, serve him in sincerity and in truth, and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the River and in Egypt. Serve the LORD!" (Joshua 24:14, NKJV).
By the end of the book that bears his name, the Israelites stood with Joshua and chose to serve only the Lord. But flip over to Judges and the word follow once again changes to forget. We encounter snapshot after snapshot of raw, uncensored faithlessness: "Then the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and served the Baals" (Judges 2:11, NKJV). But keep reading.
In chapter two we discover that, despite Israel's gross unfaithfulness, God is faithful. He molds and disciplines His children. He shows persistent, unwearied love and matchless grace; grace that's absolutely undeserved. "Nevertheless, the Lord raised up judges who delivered them out of the hand of those who plundered them" (Judges 2:16, NKJV).
In God's perfect time, He gives a new beginning to people who so easily turn their backs on Him—people like you and me.
My Thoughts
Look over these passages to learn more about following and forgetting.
  • Luke 9:23-24
  • 2 Kings 17:35-39
  • Psalm 95
 - What kind of cross do you carry daily?
 - Exactly who or what is the passion of your life?
 - Is getting your career off the ground the most important thing to you? A relationship, maybe? Or could it be money or popularity?
 - Are you following the living God? Or the gods of money, power, prestige?
My Part
Your conception and birth was God's idea, not yours. Likewise, your childhood came without thinking. (It required no act of the will.) But following God day by day is a choice. Consider the words of Joshua: "But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord." Write this verse out and post it somewhere as a reminder of the choice you need to make each day.

Living Life Full Speed Ahead

Universalism, utopianism, utilitarianism… With so many "isms”  floating around waiting to blow up our ship, is it safe to go anywhere? How do we navigate through such dangerous waters?
In the heart of the Civil War, Mobile Bay was heavily mined (at the time, tethered naval mines were called “torpedoes”). Admiral Farragut commanded his fleet to charge the bay. When one of his ships was hit, other ships began to retreat from the battle. "Damn the torpedoes!" Farragut shouted. "Four bells. Captain Drayton, go ahead! Jouett, full speed!"
Yes, destructive philosophies are all around us. We have bought into some of those philosophies whether we know it or not. But do we just sit around and do nothing? No. The best thing is to move forward rather than retreat in fear. In my opinion, it is far better to live for the truth than it is to try to hide from the lies. With the Holy Spirit in us, and with the Word of God in front of us, the lies can be exposed before they cause damage. But a life wasted cowering in fear? That's just a wasted life.
God has given us such simple and powerful instruction for living in grace and freedom. In response to the lies, we are to aggressively live for truth!
Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,
    with ten thousand rivers of oil?
Shall I offer my firstborn for my transgression,
    the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
He has showed you, O man, what is good.
    And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
    and to walk humbly with your God—
Micah 6:7-8.
Yes, we need to adhere to the MINDsweeper principle by taking every thought captive. Then it's time to just get on with it! Full speed ahead!
Heavenly Father, I thank You again for the truth of Your Word! I thank You for the power of Your Holy Spirit within me. I thank You that I have been crucified with Christ and He now lives in me. I ask that You continue to reveal the lies that lurk beneath the surface of my thoughts. You have shown me what is good and what is required. I submit to the power of Your Holy Spirit in me right now, and I ask that He would live through me the kind of life that You have called me to today. Amen.
