Continuation of Bottle 1
Uses of alcohol
Many are saying that alcohol does have so many ill effects that may cause to us, when we consume it. But even though it is said that alcohol is very hazardous to our health, they also have some benefits it we intake it in a small amount. In many countries especially in cold countries, alcoholic beverages are commonly consumed at the major daily meals (lunch and dinner). In some of the places drinking alcohol in a very small amount is used as one method of avoiding water-borne diseases such as cholera. Even many had done the research and they also says that drinking alcohol will also lowers some risks like heart attack, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, stroke and also an increase in overall longevity of life. Thus these points ensure that the alcohols also have a good side of face. But this will not say that drinking alcohol is always good for our health. Because it has some a bad effect on it’s another side of face too. Those who look on to that side of face will not recover from it very easily.

Alcohol-Good R Bad (Bottle 2)
Alcohol-Good R Bad (Bottle 1)
As we all know, many people are addicted to the habit of drinking. The only reason for it is, after they consume it will give some kind of mental satisfaction to the body and enjoyment too. Many know the ill effects of drinking habit and its causes to the society. But actually, Alcohol! What is it? It is just a drinking substance that is made up of mixing both natural and chemical products. Drinking will help us to relax our mind, but drinking it more will create some bad effects on our body. This is the explanation that is given by all, when we ask about alcohol. We will about the alcohol from technical point of view like its composition, mixture and many more. Technically speaking, an alcohol is a drink that is containing ethanol. This is a chemical product, which will cause more effects on our body and health if we intake it more. This is true and it is applicable to anything, which we in take into our body. Everything should be under a control and of it crosses that, and then we will lose our life. It is also called as a drug which will addict us, and thus we can’t able to live without it. Using alcohol can give us both good and bad result to our health. But the majority of people say that it is very injurious to health and it is also true.

Vijay Mallya
An famous industrialist from India named Vijay Mallya had acquired the belongings of Mahatma Gandhi by placing the winning bet of Rs 9.3 crore at a New York auction.The bidding for the items stopped at $1.8 million, but with commission it came for around $2.1 million. This is not the first time that Mr Mallya has bought a part of Indian heritage at an auction. In September 2003, Mr Mallya had bought the sword of Tippu Sultan at an auction in Londion.
Some Indian Govt's confusion is there in this deal with Mallya. Indian Govt. is stating that Mr Mallya is just the representative from govt. side to buy the belongings of Gandhi. But Mallya is refusing the matter and says that he bidded and bought the things in auction of his own interest. Anyway an Indian bought the things and saved the Indian heritage from its loss. Hats off to Mr Mallya.
Futureviews: September Blows
This is Futureviews (foo-too-reh-voos), a segment where I review movies that haven't come out yet...and then gloat quietly to myself as you inevitably agree with me...ain't I a stinker?...
Happy September, everybody...well, sorta...September is one of those lame months of the year, where you're not quite used to the academic routine but it's in full swing...the weather sucks (i.e. Hurricane Ike being sorta outside my window)...and the choices as far as the box office goes are both broad but limited...assuming of course you have enough common sense to avoid things like Bangkok LAMEgerous...not to say I haven't liked Nicholas Cage in some of his movies (i.e. The Wicker Man), but come on...if you've already seen Wanted, there's no point in checking this one out...
Anyway, on to the heart of this post...INGEST MY BASELESS OPINIONS, NOW!...
Burn After Reading - George Clooney, Brad Pitt, the cop from Fargo, and John Malcovich in a Coen Brothers film...need I say more?...
Watch! That! Shit!
Righteous Kill - Sounds like a topic I should debate with my paladin, but it's a movie with Robert of Niro and Al Pacino investigating a series of murders...having seen 88 Minutes about 88 times, I've lost any flavour I might have for this kind of movie with Pacino in it...it's an okay movie, about as good as Vantage Point...
I'm not going to watch it, but if you've got nothing better to do, go ahead...
Tyler Perry's The Family That Preys - Now, I haven't watched any of Tyler Perry's work...I hear it's all fairly hit or miss and I haven't really had any interest in any of them before this one...the trailer makes it look like a solid drama, though reading the synopsis worries me when I find out that a good portion of the film is dedicated to the matriarchs going on a cross-country road trip...that ain't my kinda deal, but I'm still going to give it a glance despite my reservations...
It's worth a look...
The Women - It's The Last Kiss with more chicks and less Zack Braff...if I know my readers at all, y'all are as uninterested as I am...if I'm wrong, remind me to reprimand you next time I visit...
Not even a combination of sex, Reeses pie, and 8-hours of D&D could make me watch this film...
Ghost Town - Mediocre comedy...like The Sixth Sense except the main character is actually alive for most of the movie (and Dumbledore dies and Vader is Luke's father and it was Colonel Mustard with the Lead Pipe in the Library)...probably just as funny too (I laughed)...
I'm not gonna watch it, but it wouldn't be a bad decision to do so...
Lakeview Terrace - This movie is not a work of fiction...we all know Samuel L. Jackson is a badass in every way imaginable (FUN FACT: Did you know that Scorpions on a Ship is the first production Jackson has turned down a role in since he was asked to play a Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard in a high school play?)...shoot, some of you may have even thought to yourselves "Golly! Wouldn't it be great is Samuel L. Jackson was my neighbor?"...
Well, you're wrong...this is not a work of fiction...it's a documentary...may it serve as a warning to you all...
My Best Friend's Girl - I feel sorry for Jason Biggs...American Pie both made and destroyed his career...however, he has served us well be acting as a harbinger for bad romantic comedies...
Plus, Dane Cook is lame...don't watch this...it's not going to be good...
Eagle Eye - I love Shia LaBeouf...he is one of those few actors who simple cannot be in a bad movie...he's a young actor, but that's still a great accomplishment...plus, Billy Bob Thorton?...shit, yea!...he's way too good an actor to be in some of the movies he's been in...but he still does quality work...
Watch this one!...
The Lucky Ones - Rachel McAdams, Tim Robbins and Michael Peña go on a road trip...I generally don't like road trip movies...they tend to blow...especially with 2 dudes and a chick...
Unless of course, you're traveling through Limbo...don't watch this...
Miracle at St. Anna - I generally enjoy Spike Lee's work...Do The Right Thing is one of my all-time favorite films...and this looks like it'll be no exception...I am most definitely going to see this film...the trailer gives me this nice creepy feel that I don't often get (unless I'm watching Gurren Lagann, in which case I'm in Constant Shivgasm Mode)...looks to be a WW2 drama with a hint of supernatural mystery and probably some attention called to racial divide...
Maybe we'll see some folks that aren't black or italian in this one...go watch...
That's it for this month...tune in again in October for another barrage of biased, but accurate Futureviews!...
No cPosture
You can now stop worrying about the way you look while sitting, for iPosture a small gadget, which can be stuck on the skin and buzzes to remind the wearer to sit up straight, helping improve posture, has come to your rescue. The revolutionary device vibrates discretely when the wearer slouches by more than three degrees for one minute. Once the posture is corrected the buzzing stops and users have been found to adopt better habits after wearing the device for four hours a day for up to a month. The iPosture gadget can be worn while sitting, standing or walking, making it ideal for workers who spend hours in front of a computer and can be stuck to the skin, worn as a necklace or attached to a bra strap. It uses a slimline battery like those found in most watches or calculators and monitors posture every few seconds. It may be bought on the Internet for 50pounds. Thus it helps the people to sit straight… This is a boon for all who likes to sit in iPosture… So make use of it…
Vacuum cleaner
Scientists have invented a specially-equipped robot vacuum cleaner that can sense human emotions. The scientists say that the Roomba robot vacuum cleaner uses a special headband to capture bio electric signals from the forehead of a human user, and then infers stress from muscle tension readings.
The system involves a control software programme that reinterprets natural muscle tension as estimating the user's stress level, they add.
"Two distinct robotic behaviours corresponding to two extreme emotional states, either relaxed or stressed, are triggered when the stress reading reach a threshold. Robot actions are then influenced by these stress readings. When a person shows high stress (~levels 3 and 4), the robot enters its cleaning mode but moves away from the user so as not annoy them. When a person is relaxed (~level 1), the robot (if cleaning) approaches the person and then stops, simulating a pet sitting next to its owner. If the reading is in between these two levels, the robot continues operating in its current mode until the stress reading reaches a threshold," New Scientist magazine quoted the researchers as saying.
Telling about the unique feature of this system, the researchers said that the robot's behaviour is controlled by human emotion instead of any explicit commands.
Thus this vacuum cleaner is a real well equipped robot.
New searchengine
The day is not far when an online search engine would be giving netizens direct answers to their queries rather than web pages containing them, if researchers are to be believed. It is hoped that, to build a grand metasearch engine one day that would integrate all of the one million small search engines into a single system. There are still a lot of significant challenges in creating a system of such magnitude, but I am optimistic that such a metasearch engine can be built.
Save and protect...
Thanks to the acceleration in global warming, the Arctic Ocean will lose its ice cover in the next 30 years, says a new study, and not in 100 years as scientists had predicted earlier. New research suggests the Arctic Ocean is already edging towards this grim reality, as the ice cover during summers could shrink to a mere million square km from the existing 4.6 million sq km. So much more open water could be a boon for shipping and for oil and mineral extraction from the seabed. But the flip side is it could trigger upheaval of the ecosystem. Therefore try to save the world from getting spoiled, through global warming.
Mokele-mbembe
Hi friends, here it is an interesting topic about an unknown animal to you…… It is nothing but Mokele-mbembe: meaning "one who stops the flow of rivers" in the Lingala language, is the name given to a large water dwelling cryptid(name of its grouping) found in the folklore of the Congo River basin. It is sometimes described as being a living creature and sometimes as being a spirit.
Several expeditions have been mounted in the hope of finding evidence of the Mokele-mbembe, though without success. Efforts have been covered in a number of books and by a number of television documentaries. The Mokele-mbembe and its associated folklore also appears in several works of fiction and popular culture.
According to the traditions of the Congo River basin the Mokele-mbembe is a large territorial herbivore, approximately the size of an small elephant or a large hippopotamus. It dwells in the Congo river and the surrounding swampland, and has a preference for deep water, with local folklore holding that its habitat of choice are river bends.
Descriptions of the Mokele-mbembe, by some legends describe that, it as having an elephant like body with a long neck and tail and a small head. It has been first seen and reported in the year 1776(march) and last sighted by Eugene Thomas in the year 1989 at the congo river basin.
This information tells that, the dinosauras family is still living on the earth. Since it is an herbivores, lets hope it will not eat the mankind……
Rainforest
The Amazon River Basin is home to the largest rainforest on Earth. It covers some 40% of the South American continent and includes parts of eight South American countries: Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, and Suriname, as well as French Guiana, a department of France.
Reflecting environmental conditions as well as past human influence, the Amazon is made up of a mosaic of ecosystems and vegetation types including rainforests, seasonal forests, deciduous forests, flooded forests, and savannas. The basin is drained by the Amazon River, the world's largest river in terms of discharge, and the second longest river in the world after the Nile. The river is made up of over 1,100 tributaries, 17 of which are longer than 1000 miles, and two of which (the Negro and the Madeira) are larger, in terms of volume, than the Congo (formerly the Zaire) river. The river system is the lifeline of the forest and its history plays an important part in the development of its rainforests.
How large is the Amazon rainforest?
In Brazil, the Amazon covers surface area of 4,100,000 square kilometers (1,583,000 square miles), of which around 3.4 million sq km (1.3 million sq mi) are presently forested. Accounting for parts of the Amazon outside of Brazil, the total extent of the Amazon is estimated at 8,235,430 sq km (3,179,715 sq mi). or comparison, the land area of the United States (including Alaska and Hawaii) is 9,629,091 square kilometers (3,717,811).
In total, the Amazon River drains about 6,915,000 square kilometers (2,722,000 square miles), or roughly 40 percent of South America.
To date, at least 40,000 plant species, 3,000 fish, 1,294 birds, 427 mammals, 428 amphibians, and 378 reptiles have been scientifically classified in the region.
Many mammals, still not known are also living in this forest. But deforestation taking place in these area’s will surely affect the life of these mammals. So Amazon should be protected from deforestation, otherwise the result will be very bad
Death triangle
Hi friends, this post is going to be about the worlds mystery "BERMUDA'S TRIANGLE"(also known as Devil's triangle).No doubt you have wondered about the Bermuda Triangle. It is the greatest modern mystery pf our supposedly well understood world: a region of Atlantic ocean between Bermuda, Miami, Florida, and San Juan, Puerto Rico, where disappearances of ships & planes not only continue but continue to defy explanation.
Storms are common in the region, and investigations to date have not produced scientific evidence of any unusual phenomena involved in the disappearances.
Some people were saying that ,this disappearances are due to the storms in that region and others are saying that,it is due to the heavy gravitational force in that area and some guys says that,it is due to some ghosts that are living under the see in that region and the imaginary skills of the people goes on ascending.
Recent Aircraft disappearances include:
Piper PA-46-310P N444JH on April 10, 2007, near Berry Islands.(under investigation)
Piper PA-23 N6886Y on June 20, 2005, Between Treasure Cay, BI, to Fort Pierce, FL (possible foul weather)
Piper PA-32-300 N8224C, November 13, 2003, over the Exumas, Bahamas. (No known cause)
What will be the reason for this disappearances........... Need to find a solution.
What was the fault?
Plane crashes are taking place all over the world because of many reasons. But many of them happens because of birds...The reason for the crash of Airbus A320, which had lost power and ditched in New York's Hudson River last month is found to be that both engines of the Airbus A320 were damaged and contained "organic material" which was sent to bird experts at the Smithsonian Institution for identification. But the board previously had said bird remains were found in the right engine, and now has confirmed the same in the left engine. So i request the birds to leave the way for the aircraft, that are coming on their way... Lol......
Car of the year 2008
Wheels magazine's car of the year 2008 verdict is out and the grand winner is the Honda Accord Euro. The evaluation was made based on a set of parameters like functionality, technology, efficiency, safely and value. The selection began with the release of 35 eligible cars models, which were later shortlisted to 18 before the final list of cars was made. The final shortlist includes the Honda Accord Euro, BMW X6, Chrysler Grand Voyager, Jeep Cherokee, Lexus LX570, Volvo XC70, Audi A4, Volkswagen Tiguan, and Mazda 6. Though all these cars have many special features and unique characters, Honda wins the final test, and now it is the best 2008 car.
What can squirrels do?
Hi friends, we all know much about squirrels, their activities and so on... They can climb the trees, run fast as they can and can eat the food faster.
But can they help the military in the war?, can they do sword fight?, will they go to gym?, do they know marshal arts? Ooooooooooooooh Noooooooooooo.....
Wind powered car
We all know and heard only about diesel powered, petrol powered, gas powered, hydrogen cell powered cars. But have you ever thought about wind powered cars. Does this logic works. Majority of us will say no… But Rory Handel and Maxx Bricklinas from Beverly Hills, California made it true.
The supercar designed by them could reach a top speed of 155mph without harming the environment, for it runs on wind energy. The environmentally friendly Formula AE car will initially use a solar-powered battery to move, but later depend upon the airflow around it to power a turbine. The high performance car will take less than four seconds to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph. The car is expected to cost around 100,000 pounds when it hits the market. The two-seater's bodywork boasts paper-thin solar paneling that could fully charge the battery in just 1.5 hours. However, this time will be reduced to just six minutes with a new prototype battery. A full battery would enable the drivers to cover more than 200 miles or to race around a track for at least an hour. An advanced alternating current induction motor with a power output of 212 kilowatts will propel the Formula AE. In fact, the chassis will be constructed from lightweight aluminium and super strong steel in a Formula 1-style monocoque shell. Rory Handel and Maxx Bricklinas from Beverly Hills, California designed the sleek motor of the car, and they expect the prototype to be completed in August.
So if this car comes for sale, it is sure that it is a big boon for us to save our environment from pollution. And it will be also helpful for us, as today there is more scarcity for fuel. So let’s wait for its arrival…
MOTO W233 Renew
We have seen recycling in many products like paper, cans, plastic products etc. But Motorola says that this is not enough… Motorola has now launched a cell phone made from recycled plastic water bottles. The name of the phone is MOTO W233 Renew. This good work made by Motorola will surely induce all the companies to make their product something different and also it aware the people about recycling. It is said that MOTO W233 Renew will hit the shelves during the first quarter of 2009 at T-Mobile stores. So let’s hope that this will be a nice one to use too…
Microsoft layoffs...
Today recession is taking place all over the world... Because of this many companies are laying off their workers in 1000's. In this row Microsoft too had joined. It has been asked to cut its workforce by 10%, or about 9,100 employees, to tell the market that profits are more important than revenue growth in difficult times. Thus recession made things too worse. It is said that there have been close to 20 lakh layoffs in 2008 alone. So some care should be taken by all the countries to stop this recession.
Social network really works...
We all know that social networking has really increased a lot in past few years. Nothing will work without network. It helps us to enlarge our environment. The year 2008 witnessed great growth for social media, sharing and networking properties and applications. More than 60% of the Indian internet users are using one of the social media platforms. We are witnessing a co-existence of global, local and niche based social networking platforms. Besides broad based networks, categories such as professional, education, entertainment and games will emerge as strong growth drivers for the social media. The second aspect that emerged in 2008 was the fact that young users in the age group of 18 to 24 from tier II and tier III cities began to aggressively enroll into social networking platforms. This is a healthy trend, given that social networking satisfies key needs of this young population besides enabling them to express across borders. To sum up, 2008 has been a remarkable year as consumer, advertisers and the entertainment industry have been able to realize the growing popularity of online space. Thus it is expected that this will continue at a much faster pace in this present year.
3G watch phone
Hi, I wish you all a happy new year. In this first day of this year, our post is going to be about a wrist phone. This mobile video phone can be worn on the wrist just like a watch, all thanks to a South Korean technology firm that has unveiled the worlds first "3G watch phone."
The unique phone by LG Electronics boasts a touch-screen dialing system with a camera and an in-built speaker.
With all these features, the users could make video calls and gain high-speed Internet access.
The device also recognizes voices, transforms text to speech, has a Bluetooth function and also works as an MP3 player.
The high-end handset is due to be launched in Europe later next year, reports The Telegraph.
With a 1.43-inch (3.63-centimetre) screen, the product is 0.56 inches (13.9 millimeters) in thickness.
The 3G watch phone will go on display at the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas from Jan 8 to 11.
The device makes part of a trend towards multi-tasking gadgets that can perform a host of functions.
Thus, we don’t want to carry our phone in our pocket anymore… Am I correct…
