Watch the Inspiring Video: How do you say good bye
when you have only months to live? A Farewell Song "Clouds"
by Zach Sobiech !
Zach Sobiech was diagnosed
with a rare form of cancer,known as Osteosarcoma, when he was 14
years old. Osteosarcoma
is a cancerous (malignant) bone tumor that usually develops in teenagers.
It occurs when a teen is growing rapidly but it can also occur at
any age. The cause of the disease is not known. It is observed to
be linked to a gene passed down the family tree. There are about
800 new cases reported every year out of that 400 are children.
When diagnosed, Zach took the disease positively and turned to music
while fighting against the cancer. Zach wrote a farewell, good bye
song to his family called "Clouds" that he uploaded on
YouTube in December. The deeply personal video ended up touching
the lives of millions of people on the Internet! Zach passed away
on 21 May 2013, but his song will inspire millions of people for
generations to come to know "how to live" ! RIP Zach!
This
structurally sound, lyre shaped species was recently discovered
in northeast
Pacific Ocean off the coast of California.
It has 2 to 6 horizontal vanes
holding more than 20 parallel vertical branches. Each branch is
capped by an balloon-like ball to contact and capture its preys.
This is officially named as "Chondrocladia lyra" and
will be commonly referred as "lyre sponge"!
