Solar movement has a usual cycle, with max-out more or less every 11 years. Near this activity max-out, solar flares be able to effect some disruption of satellite communications, even if engineers are learning how to construct electronics that are protected against most solar storms. But there is no extraordinary risk linked with 2012.

The next solar greatest will take place in the 2012-2014 time frames and is forecast to be a typical solar cycle, no diverse than earlier cycles right through history.

Eco-Friendly Creation analogous to a Real-Life Counterpart.

This Great Elephant is a robotic elephant made from 45 tons of cast-off resources, dimensions as 12m by 8m. The attractiveness of it is that it can clutch up to 49 passengers.

SEA SALP : Amazing Underwater Creature!!...



Sea Salp has hang about as a core attraction for researchers for numerous years.Usually they are not found singly and can be seen as a chain of salps near the surface in the Red Sea.


 








This beautiful yet weird and wonderful underwater creature is richly found in Southern ocean near Antarctica. Bodies of salps are transparent and look like jellyfishes. At times they swim, water just flows in and out of its body.

Just Dust or Disease!!..

Be Alert with dust!!!
Its just similar-to from an alien movie…… be exceptionally chary when you get trapped with dust..... as subsequent clips will show effects of bad-dust to a someone.

While he was on foot,… he felt an eye nuisance, believing that it was just a regular dust, he continued to rub his eye with an attempt to get rid of the dust.... subsequently his eyes got actually RED, and he went and bought some eye drops from a pharmacy....few days passed n his eyes were still red and seems a little swollen.

Again he dismissed it as the constant rubbing and that it will go away. The days go by the swelling of his eye got worse, redder and bigger.... till he decided to go and see a doctor for a check up.

The doctor immediately wanted an operation, being afraid of a tumor growth or cyst. At the operation, what was thought to be a growth or cyst, actually turned out to be a live worm..... what was thought initially to be just mere dust actually was an insect's egg......because of that, my friends, if u do get caught in dust, and the pain persists, pls go see a doctor immediately......

THANK YOU ALL!!... 

TAKE CARE!!..

Prolonged Sitting : A Curse!!..


A new revision anticipated that those who are quiescent and are blissful sitting for elongated hours are more prone towards the risk of becoming extinct in the next three years.

The study has painted threat for office-workers who are involved in sitting jobs, and has announced that large amount of daily sitting can cause 48% probability for a premature death in contrast to their peers who do not have sitting jobs.

 
 
"An excursion to GYM or brisk Morning walk is still required, but it's also essential to keep away from prolonged sitting. These surveys have advocated that the time people pay out sitting at home, work and in traffic should be minimised by standing or walking more."

Conclusions drawn:
  • Those having lesser sitting simply add up to few years to their lives.
  • It’s been also observed that the adults who enjoy being in their chairs for 11hrs or more have more elevated threat of dying by 40% in coming three years.
  • Still the people who remain seated for just 8hrs daily also show a 15% elevated risk of dying.
  • This menace continues even after having sound physical activity, average weight and general health. 
Hidde van der Ploeg stated, "The proof of damaging health effects due to lengthened sitting on has been rising over the last few years

Popcorn: Snack with much more Antioxidants than even Fruits and Vegetables

The Popcorn's have well versed Reputation as a demanding Snack Food for most of the time has now actually flourished and reached the higher levels as the recently reports concluded that this snack food actually contains more of the healthful antioxidants known as "poly-phenols" than most of fruits and vegetables have.
 
All this has been in accordance of the words spoken at the 243rd National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society (ACS), in San Diego on March 25.

Vinson also added "Air-popped popcorn has the lowest number of calories, of course,".  "Microwave popcorn has twice as many calories as air-popped, and if you pop your own with oil, this has twice as many calories as air-popped popcorn. About 43 percent of microwave popcorn is fat, compared to 28 percent if you pop the corn in oil yourself."

Fight Genetic Obesity via Brisk Walk

By engaging to some comfertable exercise or an hour to light walk every day can halve the genes' effect.
Studies has shown that obesity is now one to those common health concerns in our modern society that is associated with a wide range of health and metabolic diseases that result in risks like diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, some cancers and arthritis.



Revelations of the study
Those people who were found physically very active during study exhibited a lowered effect of the gene as compared to those who had sedentary lifestyle (0.08 versus 0.15 kg/m2).

Robotic Bird


Our engineering group has achieved incredible heights by designing this magnificent flying machine. The challenge underlying this invention was minimizing the weight of the robotic bird while maximizing lift from its flapping winds. 
This robotic seagull is 1m in length and weigh even less than ½kg with boasts a 2-meter wingspan. 
  
If we start comparing with real bird, the well known European herring gull is just little over ½ m in length with a wingspan up to one and a half meters and weighs roughly 1kg.
