The Himalayas, بيت الثلج
The Himalayas, “abode of
snow بمعنى بيت الثلج,” is a mountain system
in Asia that rises sharply from the Genetic Plain, in many parts over
8000 meters
high. It forms a broad, continuous arc for nearly 2,600 kilometers
along the northern fringes هامش of the Indian subcontinent شبة القارةand the south of the Tibetan Plateau .
The Himalayan range consists
of three coextensiveيوازى sub-ranges, with the northernmost and highest known as the
Great or Inner Himalayas. It forms the earth’s highest region that features
nine of 10 highest peaks in the world. Those nine include Mt. Everest, the
world’s highest mountain, on the Nepal-Tibet border. The second and
third highest peaks are also located in the Himalayas—the K2 or Mt. Godwin
Austen on the border between China and a territory claimed by India and
Pakistan, and the Kanchenjunga on the Nepal-India border, respectively.
Other peaks are Dhaulagiri and Annapurna 1 in Nepal, Nanga Parbat in the
Pakistani-controlled portion of Jammu and Kashmir, and Nanda Devi or
“bliss-giving goddess” in India.
A large land area occupying 18 countries that
serves as home to some three billion people, or almost half of the Earth’s
population, benefits from the Himalayas. This is because some of the world’s
major river systems begins from the Himalayas and forms their combined drainage
basin. In this way, the Himalayan range profoundly shaped the cultures of South
Asia. Three of the religions borne from this area—Hinduism, Buddhism, and
Sikhism—even believe that the mountains are sacred.
Geologically, the Himalayas is believed to be
created from the impact of the tectonic plates of the Indian subcontinent
traveling northward at a rate of about 15 centimeters per year toward the
plates of the Eurasian continent about 40 to 50 million years ago. The
collision of the two land masses created the Himalayan arc as the lighter rocks
from the seabed were pushed and uplifted to become mountains.
Below are the notable peaks of the Himalayan
system. They are ranked according to elevation.
Mount Everest
Mt. Everest is the most famous
of the Himalayan mountains due to its title of being the highest mountain in
the world. It is located on the edge of the Tibetan Plateau on the border of Nepal and the Tibet
Autonomous Region of China. Its massifكتلة صخرية includes
neighboring peaks Lhotse, Nuptse, and Changtse.
The mountain got its official
English name in 1856 from the Royal Geographical Society upon a recommendation
by Andrew Waugh, the British Surveyor General of India. It was known as Peak XV
until then, when it was named for Sir George Everest, the former surveyor
general of and Waugh’s predecessor سلفة. Although Waugh believed in keeping local
names for mountains when available and Tibetans had called Mt. Everest
“Chomolungma” for centuries, Waugh was unaware of this because both Nepal and
Tibet were closed to foreigners. Thus, the name Everest was declared official.
Its naming coincided تزامن with an official announcement
of the mountain’s height, taken as the average of six separate measurements
made by during the Great Trigonometric Survey of British India in 1850. Its
height was determined to be 8,848 meters, although this is now being disputedمتنازع علية. In fact, experts believe that the
mountain is still rising a few millimeters each year due to geological forces.
Global Positioning System (GPS) has been installed on Mt. Everest to accurately
detect rates of geological uplift, however small.
Mt. Everest attracts many
well-experienced mountaineers as well as novice مبتدئينclimbers. Some of them visit
the mountain as a tourist, but some seriously want to reach the mountain’s
peak. At the close of the year 2010, about 3,142 individuals had completed
5,104 ascents صعود to the summit.
Today, there is an established climbing route to
the top of the mountain. These are not technically difficult to climb. However,
the trip to Mt. Everest’s summit is not without dangers. It still poses dangers
such as altitude علو sickness, rough weather, avalanche, and strong wind. As of the
year 2010, 219 people have
been recorded as having died during the climb to its peak.

Happy Birthday to you (martin Luther King)
There ought to be a law against
Anyone who takes offense
At a day in your celebration
'Cause we all know in our minds
That there ought to be a time
That we can set aside
To show just how much we love you
And I'm sure you would agree
It couldn't fit more perfectly
Than to have a world party on the day you came to be
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday
I just never understood
How a man who died for good
Could not have a day that would
Be set aside for his recognition
Because it should never be
Just because some cannot see
The dream as clear as he
That they should make it become an illusion
And we all know everything
That he stood for time will bring
For in peace our hearts will sing
Thanks to Martin Luther King
Happy birthday to you

Why has there never been a holiday
Where peace is celebrated
All throughout the world
The time is overdue
For people like me and you
Who know the way to truth
Is love and unity to all God's children
It should never be a great event
And the whole day should be spent
In full remembrance
Of those who lived and died for the oneness of all people
So let us all begin
We know that love can win
Let it out don't hold it in
Sing it loud as you can
Happy birthday to you
