Dracula author’s first vampire sketch found

I saw... Count Dracula... with red light of triumph in his eyes, and with a smile that Judas in hell might be proud of.
— Jonathan Harker's Journal, Dracula, Chapter 4

Dracula ,a  daunting fictional novel has been most dreadful fictional novel humankind ever  been up to.The novel by author Bram Stoker, in which he portrayed his first thoughts about his legendary creation "Dracula", has been unearthed after more than 100 years.

Stoker's handwritten original has been passed down through generations and been brought to light after a century .The thin, unmarked book was discovered on a shelf in his great-grandson Noel Dobb's home on the Isle of Wight in Britain.

Dobbs was ignorant of book's significance until an American researcher contacted him to ask if he knew about a journal his famous ancestor had written.

The book that was signed "Abraham Stoker" had 305 entries dating from 1871, when Stoker was in his 20s. The journal also contains romantic poems.

Is time up for GMT ?? GMT could soon be history


Greenwich clock with standard
            measurements
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) ,currently employed time standard  could soon be history. Greenwich Mean Time will  likely be replaced by Coordinated Universal Time, which is determined by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) in Paris.Leading scientists from around the world are meeting in Britain  to consider a proposal that could eventually see Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) demoted to a footnote in history. 
   
For more than 120 years GMT has been the international standard for timing, but it is now under threat from a new definition of time itself based not on the rotation of the Earth, but on atomic clocks.Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) may be consigned to history as increasingly complex communications technologies require a more accurate system of measuring the time.

Currently ,International clocks are set according to Greenwich Mean Time, a system that measures time against the rotation of the earth according to the movement of the sun over a meridian (north-south) line that goes through the Greenwich district of London.
