10 surprising uses for salt

Just a pinch of it and it’s worth it. We’re talking salt here. Used throughout human history, mentioned often in the Bible, ubiquitous and cheap. Mined from salt rocks and extracted from sea water, salt is… well, the “salt of the earth.” You can’t live without it healthily. At the same time, you can’t live healthily with too much of it. Get the balance right – in your food and in your live – and salt is worth it’s own weight.

10 surprising good uses for salt
1. Deter ants
Sprinkle salt in doorways, on window sills and anywhere else ants use to sneak into your house. It’s a sure way to keep them out!


2. Kill grass and weeds growing in cracks in your driveway
Tired of weeding your driveway? Sprinkle salt on the grass and pour very hot water over it. Not only is this a highly effective way to kill unwanted plants, it’s also eco-friendly and cheap.


3. Say goodbye to fleas
If your dogs have fleas, simply wash their doghouse and blankets in salt water. If you’re worried your dogs may have brought fleas into your house, simply sprinkle your carpets lightly with salt and then brush it in. Leave it for 12 hours and vacuum thoroughly.


4. Pick up a dropped egg
If you drop an egg on the kitchen floor, sprinkle salt on the mess and leave it there for 20 minutes. You’ll be able to wipe it right up.


5. Clean up oven spills quickly

History of World War I & II

World War I (August 4, 1914 to November 11, 1918)

Causes: German revelry proved to be the main cause of World War I.


Main Contestants

• Central Powers comprising Germany, Australia-Hungary, Turkey and Bulgaria on the one hand, and
• Allied Power comprising England, France, Belgium, Serbia, which were joined by Russia and Italy in 1915 and 1917, respectively.

How the First World War Broke Out?


When Austria attacked Serbia, after one month of Prince Ferdinand?s murder, it drew Russia towards Serbia. Germany entered the fray to support Austria because it had vested interests in Turkey and was committed to support Austria. One by one, France, England and the other countries entered the war.


Results/Consequences of World War I


Central powers were defeated. About 50 lakh allied soldiers were killed and 1 crore and 10 lakh wounded. Bulgaria, Turkey and Austria surrendered. Germany signed the Armistice Treaty on November 11, 1918 and World War I ended. In 1919 the Treaty of Versailles was signed which curbed powers of the German empire, further humiliating and weakening it.


World War II (September 3, 1939 to August 14, 1945)

Causes: An unjust Treaty of Versailles, improper behavior of France, rise policy of expansion, and imperialism of England and France were some of the causes behind World War II.


Main Contestants

• Axis Powers ? also called the central powers which included Germany, Italy and Japan.
• Allied Powers ? Britain, France, Russia, US, Poland and Benelux countries.

Results of World War II


Hitler, who was responsible for this war, initially very successful but later met with strong resistance when he attacked Russia in 1941, and was forced to retreat to Berlin. On learning that Germany had collapsed, he committed suicide on April 30, 1945 in Berlin.


Germany was divided into two parts ? East Germany under Russia and West Germany under the control of England, France and America (allies). Russia emerged as the single biggest power in the world. It was at this time that the struggle for freedom in colonies under European control in Asia (India), Myanmar (Burma), Sri Lanka (Ceylon), Malaysia (Malaya). Egypt etc. caught on. The British Empire thus rapidly lost its leadership as more and more colonies won independence. The UNO was then established in 1945.


When Japan did not agree to the demands of the allied powers to surrender, the first atom bomb was dropped on Hiroshima on August 5, 1945 and the second on Nagasaki on August 9, 1945. Japan then surrendered unconditionally on August 14, 1945 and World War II ended.

15. Oysters can change between being female or male.


16. Men are over 30% stronger than women on average, especially in the upper body, and men’s brains are heavier than women’s.

How to prepare a resume? or Guidelines to create a CV

                  Guidelines for Preparing a Resume

A resume furnishes details for presenting yourself for a prospective job. It is a summary of your skills, accomplishments, experiences and education. There is no standard format for preparing your resume. It should be designed in such a way to impress your prospective employer and to ensure the call for an interview. Apart from the basic categories, you can add on details to make it more impressive. Always make a rough resume with all the details before you finalize on the fair one. We can go through the basic categories, to help you to make a resume.

• Name, Address and Telephone: One has to give his/her permanent address with phone number if any. If you have an e-mail address, include that too.
• Objective: It should be brief and to the point. It must give the employer an idea about your work preferences and where you want to be in your career, in future.

For example:
Seeking a challenging position with opportunities for career advancement and learning.
To have a long career in the (particular field), gain further skills and attain the goal of the organisation aiming at mutual growth.

• Profile: This category is optional but valuable. Here one should give an overall picture of his/her abilities and accomplishments. You must stress on your particular strengths.

For example:
Good knowledge on Internet Security, E-commerce Transactions, System Analysis etc.
More than one year experience in the particular industry.

• Educational Qualification: Here one has to include your degree, specialisation, institutions attended, year of graduation, subsidiary subjects studied, and any special workshops, seminars, related courses or projects done. You can give your qualifications separately as academic and professional or technical if any.
• Career Graph or Work Experience: One must give details regarding the place you have worked, the position you held, your responsibilities and achievements if any, duration of work etc. List the name of the organisation, give a brief description if you prefer and the place it's located. Then give your work responsibilities with an emphasis on achievements- (work projects done, targets achieved etc.) and the dates or period you have served in the organisation.
• Personal Profile: Your personal details like date of birth, permanent address and contact number, e-mail, passport details if any, hobbies, languages known etc.
• References: References should be given with prior consent from the relevant people. This must include their name, address and phone number. It is not essential to give references in a resume. You can state that references can be furnished if needed.

LEDs are described by several specifications, some of the more important of which are:
Maximum current;
Brightness;
Color of light;
Angle of light beam (for example, an LED with an angle of 15 degrees produces a more focused beam than one with a beam of 45 degrees); and
Size, usually 5 mm.

What is Electronics ?

The field of electronics offers a powerful set of tools for obtaining accurate numerical data. Instead of just saying that there is a difference between two things (color, brightness, charge, etc.), electronic devices allow you to measure precisely how big the difference is.


Electrons and Charge
The word electronics is derived from "electron." Electrons are sub-atomic particles with a negative charge. The unit for electric charge is the coulomb. One coulomb equals the charges of 6.24 billion billion (1018) electrons. A single electron has a charge that is too small to measure in most electronic devices, so scientists use coulombs as a more useful way to describe charge.


Multimeters
The basic outputs for electronic devices are voltage, current, and resistance. Inexpensive and sensitive devices, called multimeters, can measure each of these. If you can devise a way for the output of your experiment to be in the form of voltage, for example, you can use a multimeter to get precise numerical data.


Voltage
The definition of voltage is: the measurement of the potential for an electric field to cause a current in a conductor. An electric field "pushes and pulls" electric charges, so if you put an electron in an electric field, it will move. The movement of charged particles is a current (more about current below). The essential point is that the voltage is a measure of how strongly charged particles are being pushed and pulled by an electric field. The symbol for voltage is V.
Consider a simple flashlight with two D batteries. Each D battery has a voltage of 1.5 V. By putting two 1.5-V batteries together, the total voltage equals 3 V. This voltage is high enough to power a lightbulb. When you turn the flashlight on, the voltage difference causes electrons to flow through the lightbulb, making it shine. The electric field provides the energy to move charged particles through wires (electrical conductors) and through the lightbulb.


Voltage can be direct (DC) or alternating (AC). In DC voltage, the voltage does not alternate. If you graph the voltage of a 9-V battery vs. time, for example, you will have a straight line at a value of 9 V. Alternating current flips back and forth between positive and negative. If you make a graph of AC current vs. time, it will alternate from positive to negative, often in the form of a sine wave. Voltage is supplied to a circuit by a battery or other power supply.


Current
Current is a measurement of how much charge moves through a circuit in a given period of time. In the case of the flashlight, the current through the lightbulb is a measurement of the amount of electric charge flowing through the lightbulb in a given time.
The symbol for current is I. The symbol for the unit of current, the ampere, is A. The precise definition of an ampere is: the current produced by the flow of one coulomb per second. Use "I" when referring to current (as in Ohm's law, discussed below) and "A" when referring to the amount of current.
DC current is produced by DC voltage and AC current is produced by AC voltage.


Resistance
Electrons flow through materials in response to a voltage, creating a current. Some materials, such as copper, have very low resistance, so the electrons flow freely—they are good conductors. Some materials have intermediate resistance, such as the semiconductors used to make transistors. Semiconductors might have a threshold value for the voltage that will cause a current to flow, for example. And some materials, such as rubber, have high resistance and are used as insulators to separate charges.
The symbol for resistance is R. The unit for resistance is the ohm, which has the symbol Ω, and is the capital letter "W" in Greek.


Ohm's Law
Ohm's law relates voltage, current, and resistance, mathematically. Ohm's law can be written as: V = IR. In words, Ohm's law states that the voltage in a component in a circuit equals the current through the component, times the resistance of the component.


Electronic Circuit
An electronic circuit is a closed path formed by the interconnection of electronic components through which an electric current can flow. You might find it helpful to compare an electronic circuit to a circuit in which water flows.
Voltage in the electronic circuit is like the pump in the water circuit—it provides the push to make things go.
Current in the electronic circuit is like the rate (in liters per second, for example) that water flows in the water circle.
And resistance in an electronic circuit is like a constriction in a hose in the water circuit. An electronic resistor impedes the flow of electrons, just as a constriction in a hose impedes the flow of water.

10 reasons why PCs crash U must Know...

Fatal error:
the system has become unstable or is busy," it says. "Enter to return to Windows or press Control-Alt-Delete to restart your computer. If you do this you will lose any unsaved information in all open applications."
You have just been struck by the Blue Screen of Death. Anyone who uses Mcft Windows will be familiar with this. What can you do? More importantly, how can you prevent it happening?


1. Hardware conflict


The number one reason why Windows crashes is hardware conflict. Each hardware device communicates to other devices through an interrupt request channel (IRQ). These are supposed to be unique for each device.


For example, a printer usually connects internally on IRQ 7. The keyboard usually uses IRQ 1 and the floppy disk drive IRQ 6. Each device will try to hog a single IRQ for itself.


If there are a lot of devices, or if they are not installed properly, two of them may end up sharing the same IRQ number. When the user tries to use both devices at the same time, a crash can happen. The way to check if your computer has a hardware conflict is through the following route:

Full Screen Mode for Turbo c on Vista & Windows 7

This is a simple technique. Just follow the simple 4 steps given below and get a big screen in few seconds. There is no need of any additional softwares or drivers.
Step 1: Open TC++ (normally C:\TC\BIN\TC.EXE). In the startup it will show a dialogue box that it doesn’t support full screen mode as seen in the picture below. Just select ignore option. Then it will open the small screen mode.
Step 2: Go to the top left of the window and click. It will show a menu as shown in the figure. Then select properties from the menu.
Step 3: Now it will show the properties window, in which you select the Font tab. There you can see two font options as Raster and Lucida Console. The default will be Raster. You select Lucida Console and select the size from the size list as 28.
Step 4: After selecting the fonts, now you have to select the layout tab where you can see screen buffer size, window size, and window position options. First unselect the “Let system position window” option from window position options. Now make the following changes:
• Screen Buffer Size: Width: 82 Height: 28
• Window Size: Width: 80 Height: 26
• Window Position: Left: -4 Top: -4
OK.
Now you will see a larger window and very crisp font size in which you can work perfectly fine. This technique actually doesn’t provide full screen in Vista but you will find it much better.
NB: The given sizes will work fine for 1280 by 800 screens, but there is no compulsion that you have to use them as specified. You can always use your own options according to your need.

Firewall - Any firewall protecting your home, work, and/or school network must be open for many of these software programs / services to communicate with other computers. If you have a software firewall program running on your computer you must unblock or open the port for the program when prompted. Some schools / corporations have a hardware firewall that will block almost all outside Internet traffic making it difficult if not impossible for many of these solutions to work.
Static IP vs. Dynamic IP - Many of the programs will require you to specify the IP address of your computer. If you do not have a static IP address this address will change each time you connect to the Internet. This can make it difficult to connect if your computer is consistently changing its IP address.
Modem vs. always on connection - If your home computer is connecting to the Internet using a Modem instead of an always on connection such as a broadband connection you must keep your modem connected in order to connect to the computer. Additional information about disabling auto disconnect and keeping your modem connection established can be found on document CH000371.
Plug-ins and additional software - Many of the online services that allow you to remotely connect to another computer over your browser will require that a plug-in be installed into the browser and/or a third-party program be installed. Some work and school computers may prohibit you from doing this.

Mobile Number Portability - Complete Guide

                                   Mobile Number Portability (MNP) got kicked off in India (as planned) on 25th November 2010, with the initial launch happening in the state of Haryana. Other states too will be catching up soon and with this new facility, which will allow users to change their mobile service providers without changing their Mobile phone number. This article intends to be a FAQ post which will help you understand Mobile Number Portability and how it will work in India. Read on to learn more about Mobile Number Portability in India.
1. What is MNP or Mobile Number Portability?
MNP is the abbreviation used for Mobile Number Portability. Mobile NumberPortability as mentioned above, once implemented, will allow users to change their mobile carriers (Vodafone, Airtel, Idea, Reliance, Tata DoCoMo, Uninor etc… are few of the mobile carriers who operate in India) without changing their phone number. Without MNP, if a user changes his / her mobile carrier, he / she is given a new SIM which also has a new number and thus his / her phone number changes, the minute he / she uses the new SIM (when MNP is not used). With MNP, you will be switch from GSM to CDMA or vice versa without getting your number changed.
2. Steps to Change Mobile Service Provider with MNP
Once MNP gets rolled out in your circle (i.e. telecom term for your residential area), then you need to follow the steps mentioned below
Step 1 – Send an SMS to 1900 with the message PORT . represents an empty space, which can be generated by pressing space bar key on your mobile phone.
For example, if your mobile phone number is 9999999999 then you need to type PORT 9999999999.
Step 2 – Once you send the message as described in Step1, you will receive a porting code. Porting code is a 8 digit unique code associated with your number.
Step 3 – Next, you must visit the service provider to which you wish to subscribe with the porting code you obtained in Step 2. Here you will be required to complete the application process (which will include filling up a specific form for MNP).
Step 4 – With the completion of Step 3, work from your end is completed. After this, the service providers (current and new) will complete the back-end work. You will then receive an SMS which mention the date and time of porting from your new service provider. As per Department of Telecommunication paper, the operators are required to finish this process in Seven days.
Step 5 – Once step 4 is completed, on the specific date and time mentioned by the provider, insert the new SIM card and your phone will now work on the same phone number, but with new carrier.
3. How often can I change my Mobile Service Provider?
MNP requires you to be with the new service provider for at least 90 days.

4. What are the charges for keeping my number same, while switching carriers?
The new service provider can charge a maximum of Rs. 19 from the subscriber as MNP fees. This has been fixed by TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India).
5. is there a down-time; I need to be aware of?
On the day when porting actually happens for your number, a down time of 2 hours should be accounted.
6. I want to switch to a new Mobile service provider, but my current service provider is denying me porting rights. Why?
Your request for switching to a new service provider, while keeping your phone number same, through MNP can be denied by your current provider if
i. You have outstanding dues with your providers.
ii. If your contract forbids you from moving out of the network.
iii. You haven’t been with the new provider 90 days.
iv. Your request is not within the same area. For example, you live in Mumbai, but applying for provider change in Delhi.
v. Legal restrictions on your number from court or government etc.
vi. Your number is going through an ownership change or address change. In such a situation, you need to get through with the process before applying for service provider change through MNP.
Mobile number Portability in India, got delayed multiple times
Many analysts believe that Mobile Number Portability will lead to substantial reduction of ARPU’s (Average Revenue per User) for major telcos, however there is also another breed which believes that MNP won’t lead to price war, rather better customer support, network infrastructure, lesser call drops etc. Once completely rolled out MNP will cover 22 circles across India with almost 10 providers in each circle.

CORRECT WAY OF COOKING NOODLES

The correct way to cook in stant noodles without harm in g our bodies and health: Normally, we cook the in stant noodles is putt in g the noodles in to a pot with water, throw in the powder and let it cook for around 3 m in utes and then it's ready to eat.
This is the WRONG method of cook in g the in stant noodles.
CORRECT METHOD:
1. Boil the noodles in a pot with water.
2. once the noodles is cooked, take out the noodles, and throw away the water which conta in s wax.
3. boil another pot of water till boil in g and put the noodles in to the hot boil in g water and then shut the fire.
4. only at this stage when the fire is off, and while the water is very hot, put the in gredient with the powder in to the water, to make noodle soup.
5. however, if you need dry noodles, take out the noodles and add the in gredient with the powder and toss it to get dry noodles.

Dietician's Note: If you buy pla in hakka noodles you may initially need to boil it in water and discard the water. This will soften the noodles, but to prevent it from sticking we need to add a table spoon of oil, also the noodles are deep fried partially to make it crunchy and then dust it with flour to prevent it from sticking while boiling. Hence when you buy the noodles they are already made unhealthy and this is the type we use to make stir fry noodles, and the regular maggi too is made the same way plus they add MSG/ ajinomoto and other chemical preservatives.
