Man can plan, but the Lord determines. So saying that we often hear, that indicates that the planning people can be different with God’s plan so that it often happens that the results obtained did not comply with our will.

But the findings, the findings of this happening are not intentional and is not the actual goal of the inventor. A “blessing in disguise” or mercy of God that is hidden in an event that is not desired, it is about expression of the right to useful inventions-inventions that to this day we still feel the benefits.

A lesson for us that the bad things in our lives and is not expected to bring ugliness does not always, but often provide good so long as we still hold a positive and beautiful opportunity to see another behind a natural. Because we never know how the “hands” God help us work.

1. Microwave Oven

In 1945 Percy Lebaron Spencer, an engineer and creator of America, busy working in the factory magnetron, a tool used to generate the micro-wave radio signal which is a form of early radar. Radar is a remarkable innovation in the critical period of war, but the use of micro waves to cook food is inadvertence.

When standing near a magnetron that are alive, Spencer found that chocolate bar melt in his pocket. His sharp mind that quickly understand that it is due to micro-waves. Then he try to popcorn seeds, and on an egg to explode.

Microwave oven first weighing about 340 kg with the size of a refrigerator.

2. Penicillin

You may already know Alexander Fleming, Scottish scientists who conduct research on the bacteria weakened, called staphylococci or stafilokokus. The fact is when he returned from a holiday in 1928, he found one of his cup experiment has grown mushrooms, so make them annoyed and threw it. At that time he was not aware that bacteria and stafilokokus not able to live in an environment that can grow fungal fungi.

After re-examining Fleming and get the mushroom that can prevent the growth of bacteria, then he publishes its findings but not a lot of attention. Then in 1945 after further research done by some other scientists, believed that the new penicillin can be produced in industrial scale, so this gives way to treatment of infection by bacteria or inflammation to the present.

3. Ice cream cone

This story is a perfect example of the invention that is not intentional, and a rare chance meeting that gave impact to the world. And that is a sweet meeting.

At the beginning of 1904, ice creams presented on a plate. Until when at a World’s Fair in that year, in Saint Louis, Missouri, two of food that seems not related to can not be connected together.

At the time the air is very hot in the World’s Fair in 1904, shops selling ice cream ice cream with a quick up-to run out of dishes. Store in the next lucky is not the same as ice cream seller, the seller Zalabia – a kind of wafer thin wafel from Persia – and the store owners to propose an idea to its rolls zalabia a cone and put a lump on top of ice cream. Thus ice cream cone was born – and until now we still find the ice cream cone with it, although with any type of modern making of ice cream is.

4. Champagne

According to many people Dom Pierre Perignon champagne respected as the inventor. Although the actual century Benedictine monk-17 that does not mean that, that is, to make wine with bubbles, air bubbles in it-because in fact he has spent many years trying to prevent it happening. Wine full of air bubbles is considered as a sign that the process of making wine ugly.

Perignon surely hope to meet a French official selection of white wine. Because the grape is black is easier to grow in the Champagne region, he found a way to press out juice and white wine from black. But because the climate in Champagne is relatively cold, the wine after fermentation to final two seasons, until the second year in the bottle. The result is a wine-filled bubbles of carbon dioxide gas bubbles that by Perignon tried but failed to be cleaned. Fortunately, new wine is finally becoming the main choice among aristokrat, both officials in France and the UK.

5. Paper Post-It notes

The invention of paper Post-It note that is a simple coincidence that the collaboration between the science of the bushes with a church congregation that desperate. In the year 1970, Spencer Silver, a research company of 3M United States, was trying to formulate a kind of adhesive glue is strong, but ended in the creation of a very weak glue that can be released easily. He will introduce the invention of the 3M, but there are people who do not care.

Four years later, Arthur Fry, a co-worker at 3M Silver and members of the choir at his church, upset by the fact that a small paper in the book store as a sign of spiritual songs page limit always drop when the book is opened. He then asks for assistance to the Spencer Silver to take the result of finding, namely a weak adhesive glue that limit as a book page. Bookmarks paste a paper that has adhesive Spencder Silver findings work perfectly, and he then sold the idea to 3M. Marketing experiment began in 1977, to a post-it is known in the world today.

6. Potato chips

Year 1853, in a restaurant in Saratoga, New York, someone who is eating the night, Cornelius Vanderbilt, once seen as sourish repeatedly refused to eat the food in a frying ordered. He complained that the fried food is too thick and too wet. After the plates are returned and then some more potatoes discount to its thin, the head cook George Crum, decided to fry the thinly sliced potatoes in the oil that much, so chips like this now.

Vanderbilt in the first protest of the head cook, said that the fried food that is too thin for the pin with a fork, but after some experiments, potato chips became the favorite, and soon everyone in the house in order to eat it. On the list so that the menu listed “Saratoga Chips”, which was then famous throughout the world.

7. Slinky

You surely know this one toy, a coil wire colorful per the ring-shaped rattle when the shake-shake. This original play is just a decoration on a desk a mechanical expert, Richard James, who at one time in 1940 when the spring comes, tripped and rolled to the floor after the tread so that objects must lie sick. After a few prototype, SLINKY finally ready to be introduced in the toy store in 1948, that became one of the most popular toy icons throughout the period.

James’s wife, Betty, is the person who proposed the name “Slinky”, and as CEO of the company since 1960. More than 250 million Slinky has been sold worldwide, Slinky, and even used as the radio antenna moves during Vietnam war.

8. Pacemaker

Such as penicillin, this invention is not accidentally that has saved many lives to this day. An American engineer, Wilson Greatbatch, is working with an equipment that does not record the heartbeat uniform, when he insert a type of resistor that to err in its findings. Pulse circuits, and quiet, and pulse again, encourage Greatbatch to compare this reaction with human heart and use it as the first heart pacemaker in the world which can be implan or to the plant in the human body.

Before the version that can be used in human implan after 1960, the pacemaker has been based on an external model that is found by Paul Zoll 1952. Measuring tool is a television and distributing electric shocks-shocks that are tailored to the patient’s body, which often cause a skin burn. Greatbatch also developed his invention by using the battery cells iodid litium tool to spur the heart.

9. Super strong glue (superglue)

Material more sticky. This is a famous high-gluten because the wall, not like Post-It Notes at the top. Super strong glue created in 1942 when Dr. Harry Coover are working to isolate a plastic material to create a clean handle of firearm. While he is working with the chemicals cyanoacrylates, immediately after the polymerized material related with the dew all the chemicals in the experiment are bound together. Coover for his experiment failed, and continue research.

Six years later, Coover worked in a chemical factory in Tennessee and the potential of a substance when they are hot from the major test cyanoacrylates, known previously that the glue-glue does not require heat and pressure to form a strong bond. So, after a certain amount of commercial refinement, superglue or “Alcohol-Catalyzed Cyanoacrylate Adhesive composition” (composition of materials Cyanoacrylate glue in the catalysis with the alcohol) was born.

Glue that is used later to handle the injured soldiers in the Vietnam war – the glue that can spray on the open wound, stem bleeding and facilitate transportation of the soldiers. This glue has a lot to save the life of victims of injury by firearm.

10. Saccharin

Saccharin, artificial sweetener of the oldest, accidentally found in 1879 by a researcher named Constantine Fahlberg, a person who had been working on the Johns Hopkins University in the laboratory professor Ira Remsen. The findings Fahlberg began when he forgot to wash his hands before lunch, which had been exposed to similar chemical spillage in the laboratory it. And chemicals that cause the bread to eat it in a strange taste sweet.

In 1880, the two scientists jointly published the discovery, but the year 1884, Fahlberg obtained a patent rights and began mass producing the material without the saccharine Remsen. Use of saccharin will not be extended, if not because of the limited sugar during World War I, and its popularity increased during the 1960s until the 1970s because it used by the factory and Sweet’N Low-drink beverages (soft drinks) to the diet.

11. Vulkanisir rubber (tire rubber)

Christopher Columbus, discoverer continental United States, is the person who first introduced the rubber ball from West Indies to Europe. Rubber material is good material but is smelly, and harden when cold is too sticky when warm and not visible can be used for practical purposes.

Three hundred years later, Charles Goodyear established company and strive to make useful materials. During the previous seven years, he tried to cultivate rubber material with magnesium oxide, bronze powder, tamarind paste and lime nitrate, but without results. Then, in a day full of luck in the year 1839, he was clean his hands from the spread powder, which consists of a mixture of rubber and sulfur. Powder and drop it into an oven on fire. When the rubber roll, the material reacts with the sulfur it. This is the first rubber tire rubber vulkanisir or created, and until now you can fall asleep with a sleep in the car because this inadvertence.

12. X ray machine

In year 1895, German scientist physics, Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, are trying to find ways to see the rays katode out of a glass tube is completely covered by a black cardboard. He realized this was impossible but he found something more interesting about it. He tried to put various objects in front of the tool, but it is surprising that he sees the bones, the bones in their own hands, and then, the results are projected to the wall. Roentgen rays aware that it can penetrate solid objects as well. Soon, he mentions the rays can penetrate it with the name of x-ray or we know also with the X-ray – as his name. Nowadays, the tool has become a standard tool in the health hospitals.

13. Viagra

If you are a contract that Erectile Dysfunction, you should be grateful to the researchers from Merthyr Mydfil, a town in Wales. In 1992, they perform some clinical tests to test new types of drugs that are expected to hypertension therapy. Experiment-the experiment has a very bad failure does not look like its their blood pressure levels to normal point. But when blood pressure is measured are increased, they see others have joined the ride – you surely already know what I mean (he he he). The project is certainly the case will be discontinued due to side it does not appear. Now this drug is known as “viagra”, this type of medicine “outs gravity” is used to produce a “steel rod” is strong.
