Amazing Facts About Abe Zam Zam

Shaheen AnjumWonders of ZAM - ZAM In 1971, an Egyptian doctor wrote to the European Press, a letter saying that Zum-zum water was not fit for drinking purposes. I immediately thought that this was just a form of prejudice against the Muslims and that since his statement was based on the assumption that since the Ka'aba was a shallow place (below sea level) and located in the center of the city of Makkah, the wastewater of the city collecting through the drains fell into well holding the water. Fortunately, the news came to King Faisal's ears that got extremely angry and decided to disprove the Egyptian doctor's rovocative statement. He immediately ordered the Ministry of Agriculture and Water Resources to investigate and send samples of Zum-zum water to European laboratories for testing the water. The ministry then instructed the Jeddah Power & Desalination Plant to carry out this task. I was employed as Desalting Engineer (Chemical Engineer) to produce drinking water from...

World's Largest Cargo Ship
2007-08-14 10:32:00
World's Large st Cargo Ship Get a load of this ship! 15,000 containers and a 207' beam! And look at the crew size (13) for a ship longer than US aircraft carriers, which have complements of 5,000 men and officers. Think it's big enough? Notice that 207' beam means it was NOT designed for the Panama or Suez canal . It is strictly transpacific. Check out the "cruise speed". 31 mph means the goods arrive four days before the typical container ship traveling at 18 to 20 mph on a China-to-California run. So this behemoth is hugely competitive when carrying perishable goods.This ship was built in three, perhaps as many as five sections. The sections floated together and then welded. It is named Emma Maersk. The command bridge is higher than a ten story building and has eleven rigs that can operate simultaneously.Additional info:Country of origin - DenmarkLength - 1,302 ftWidth - 207 ftNet cargo - 123,200 tonsEngine - 14 in-line cylinders diesel engine (110,000 BHP)Cruise Speed - 31 mi/...
