Uses & Benefits of Podina

Image
Podina is used as a carminative and an expectorant. The plant is highly effective in treating headaches, rhinitis, cough sore throat, colic, prurigo and vomiting. It serves as a good blood cleanser, since it is antiseptic and anti-bacterial. Podina plays a significant role in alleviating swollen gums, mouth ulcers and toothaches. Crushed and bruised pudina leaves are used in treating insect bites. The decoction and infusion of its leaves and stems helps in fever, stomachaches, dysmenorrheal and diuresis. Fresh leaves of podina are crushed and sniffed for dizziness. Crushed leaves are also applied on the forehead and temple, to cure headaches. For toothaches, boil 6 tablespoons of pudina leaves in 2 glasses of water, for 15 minutes. Strain and cool the water. Divide it into two parts and take each part after 3 to 4 hours. Boil 6 tablespoons of chopped leaves in 2 glasses of water, for 15 minutes. Cool and strain. Divide the decoction into 3 parts and consume three times a day.

Acts of Environment

Image
some of the acts that are raised by the governments: 1. THE ENVIRONMENT [PROTECTION] ACT,1986 the potential scope of the Act is broad, with "ENVIRONMENT" defined to include water, air and land and the inter-relationship which exists and between water, air and the land, and human beings and other living creatures, plants, micro-organisms and property. 2. UNDER SECTION 7 No person carrying on any industry, operation or process shall discharge or permit to be discharge or emitted any environmental pollutants in excess of prescribed standards. 3. UNDER SECTION 15 if any one fails to comply with or contravenes any of the rules/provisions of this Act shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term of 3-5 years with fine of $10,000 or both. in case the failure or contravention continues, additional fine may be charged up to $500-1000 per day which continuous. 

Tips to avoid Global warming

Image
"SAVE THE ENVIRONMENT FROM GLOBAL WARMING" 1. save oil and save the energy. 2. harvest by rain fall. 3. conserve water and the limited amount as required. 4. recycle paper and water. 5. try to carry jute bags or cloth Bags to the shopping mall and try to avoid the plastic bags. 6. plant and Nurture trees by each and every person of the earth. 7. Always Dispose the E-waste properly 8. save the electricity by using the Compact Fluorescent Light [CFL]     lamps. 9. try to install the solar electrical system at least in a single room and gradually increase it into the complete house So, that this makes a little experience to work/maintenance on it. 10. Adopt a green technology towards the buildings.        

Flexible electronic devices with Nano technology

Image
  A discovery by a research team at North Dakota State University, Fargo, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), shows that the flexibility and durability of carbon nanotube films and coatings are intimately linked to their electronic properties. The research could one day impact flexible electronic devices such as solar cells and wearable sensors. The research also provided a promising young high school student the chance to work in the lab with world-class scientists, jumpstarting her potential scientific career. The NDSU/NIST research team, led by Erik Hobbie, Ph.D., is working to determine why thin films made from metallic single-wall carbon nanotubes are superior for potential applications that demand both electronic performance and mechanical durability. "One simple reason is that the metallic nanotubes tend to transport charge more easily when they touch each other," said Hobbie. "But another less obvious reason has to do with how much the

nokia morph concept

Launched alongside The Museum of Modern Art “Design and The Elastic Mind” exhibition, the Morph concept device is a bridge between highly advanced technologies and their potential benefits to end-users. This device concept showcases some revolutionary leaps being explored by Nokia Research Center (NRC) in collaboration with the Cambridge Nanoscience Centre (United Kingdom) – nanoscale technologies that will potentially create a world of radically different devices that open up an entirely new spectrum of possibilities. Morph concept technologies might create fantastic opportunities for mobile devices: ·    Newly-enabled flexible and transparent materials blend more seamlessly with the way we live ·    Devices become self-cleaning and self-preserving ·    Transparent electronics offering an entirely new aesthetic dimension ·    Built-in solar absorption might charge a device, whilst batteries become smaller, longer lasting and faster to charge ·    Integrated sensors might allow us t

Need For Speed 6 Hot Pursuit 2

Image
All types of modes can only have a certain class of cars to be used. Faster cars are used near the end of the "Championship" and "Ultimate Racer" modes.  Delivery  is a timed point-to-point dash, with the police in pursuit. This is similar to the delivery mission in  Porsche Unleashed  while the police pursuit makes it more challenging.  Sprint  is a point to point race where competitors try to get from one end to the other before their opponent.  Time Trial  gives players three laps on a level with the goal being to beat the required time to get the gold/silver/bronze medal.  Lap Knockout  eliminates the last racer in each lap until one player remains the victor.  Knockout  follows a similar principle, but eliminations are made to the last racer at the end of each race. Several other modes, such as  Tournament ,  Single Race , and Championship/Ultimate Racer  are also available.

Need For Speed CARBON

Image
The gameplay is based upon rival  street racing  crews. Players run a crew and can hire specific street racers to be in their crew and the active friendly racer is known as a wingman. Each hirable street racer has two skills, one which is a racing skill (scout, blocker, and drafter) and a non-race skill (fixer, mechanic, and fabricator). Each skill has different properties from finding hidden alleys/back streets (shortcuts) to reducing police attention. Cars driven by the wingmen are also different; blockers drive muscles, drafters drive exotics and scouts drive tuners (although the first two unlockable wingmen (Neville and Sal) drive cars according to the player's chosen car class at the start of the game). In career mode, players have to race tracks and win to conquer territories and face off against bosses to conquer districts. Unlike  Need for Speed: Most Wanted  and  Underground ,  Carbon  had no drag racing. However,  Carbon  features the return of drift racing, a mode that

Need For Speed Most Wanted

Image
Most Wanted , like other  Need for Speed  games, is essentially a driving and racing game, where the player selects one car and races against a time limit or other racers to reach a destination. Police chases have once again been integrated into certain racing sessions, in which the police employ vehicles and tactics to stop the player's car and arrest the player, like Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2, and Need for Speed: Carbon. As players take control of faster cars and increasingly rely on nitrous oxide speed boosts, the oxide meter now refills automatically for the first time since its introduction in  Underground , and driving sequences become fast-paced and intense similar to the  Burnout  series. Three distinct regions are offered in the city of Rockport, along with cycling weather. Racing events take place between sunrise and sunset, unlike in the Underground where the events took place at night. A  Grand Theft Auto -like Free Roam mode is provide

Need For Speed Underground 2

Image
Description : In addition to the racing modes included in the previous  Underground  game (Circuit, Sprint, Drag and Drift races), 4 new variations of races have been provided in  Underground 2 . One racing mode was dropped, this being the Knockout competitions. Still, a Lap Knockout option is available when racing Circuit in non-career races. A  circuit race  is a standard race that involves up to four cars driving around a track that loops back to the start line of itself. A circuit race is typically a maximum of four laps and minimum of 2 laps.  A sprint race  is just like a circuit race except that the track does not loop back to the start line. It's a race from A to B involving a maximum of four vehicles, and because of the track design there is only one lap.  Street X  races are similar to Circuit races, but they take place on closed courses similar to Drift races. Drifting  is one of the easier types of racing (depending on difficulty level) in Need for Speed Underground

New Solar Power From Old Technology

Image
New Solar Technology To Generate Electricity is almost a cliche these days. Let’s look at some promising old technology. Today, on Engineering Works! Listen to the podcast. When people talk about solar energy, they usually mean one of two things. Photovoltaic panels or solar concentrating plants. Some engineers are trying something else. An updated version of a two-hundred-year-old invention to turn sunlight into electricity. This old technology is something called a Stirling engine. A Scottish clergyman named, you guessed it, Stirling, invented it in 1816. The idea is simple. A Stirling engine has two cylinders and pistons. Kind of like a two-cylinder motorcycle engine. The space above the pistons is filled with a fluid, usually air or helium. Heat the gas in one cylinder and it expands, moving the piston. The gas cools and moves to the other cylinder, where it moves that piston and flows back to the first cylinder, where it’s heated again and the whole cycle starts over. It’s m

New Look to an Old Engine

THE GIST OF THE STORY Combustion engines are incredibly inefficient. Some engineers are looking into ways to recover wasted energy. ================================================================   To hear some people tell it, the internal combustion engine is dead. Some engineers aren’t so sure. We’ll check it out. Today, on Engineering Works! Listen to the podast. Just about everybody knows a little about internal combustion engines. They’re what powers almost all of our cars, trucks and motorcycles. They’ve been around for more than a hundred years, and they’re boring. They’re also really inefficient. Only about a quarter of the energy in fuel actually turns the wheels and takes us down the highway. The rest, mostly heat, is just wasted. Engineers are looking into some nifty ways to get that wasted energy back. One group of British engineers are working on a tiny turbine that would fit in the tailpipe. Exhaust from the engine would spin the turbine. It would drive

Night Driving

Image
   Night Driving Traffic death rates are three times greater at night than during the day, yet many of us are unaware of night driving's special hazards or don't know effective ways to deal with them. Driving at night is more dangerous than during the day. One of the obvious reasons is darkness. Ninety percent of a driver's reaction depends on vision, and vision is severely limited at night. Depth perception, color recognition and peripheral vision are compromised after sundown.                                                                                                 Fatigue also adds to the danger of night driving. Drowsiness makes driving more difficult by dulling concentration and slowing reaction time. Alcohol is the single most significant factor in fatal traffic crashes, playing a part in more than half of all motor vehicle-related deaths. That makes weekend nights more dangerous. More fatal crashes take place on Friday and Saturday nights than at any other time

  UNUSUAL NATURAL PHENOMENS On June 18, 2008 Mike Hollingshead from "Extreme Instability" documented the advent of the weirdest storm: giant waves of rolling thick fog, cresting over the landscape….Similar weather phenomenon, according to witnesses, happened in England (Penzance, Cornwall) – perfectly defined, very slow moving wall of the densest fog ever seen. Here is another bank of thick rolling fog – this time at Rock Mills Rd. in Rappahannock County, Virginia:
