Bermuda Triangle Mystery


The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is a region of the northwestern Atlantic Ocean in which a number of aircraft and surface vessels are alleged to have disappeared in mysterious circumstances which fall beyond the boundaries of human error, pirates, equipment failure, or natural disasters. Popular culture has attributed some of these disappearances to the paranormal, a suspension of the laws of physics, or activity by extraterrestrial beings.[1]

A substantial body of documentation exists showing numerous incidents to have been inaccurately reported or embellished by later authors, and numerous official agencies have gone on record as stating that the number and nature of disappearances is similar to any other area of ocean, however proponents of paranormal phenomena claim that many incidents remain unexplained despite considerable investigation.

Friends



Whenever we feel alone and dejected we always think about company of a good friend, its the first thing which comes into our mind and the persons who accompany us any time we need them, we should also think about our friends need, how he feels about us and if he is in trouble how can assist him. Think how you can become a good friend after eliminating your habits which all friends dislike.

some days are cold and dark.
Some make us feel so alone.
Some days are hard to understand.
On those days God knew we'd need
an extra hug or two.
So he gave us friends.
So that we would always have
an angel close when we needed one.

Save Power..!!










Entertain these cost saving ideas.

  • Turn off your electronic entertainment devices when you aren’t using them and watch your savings add up.
  • Computers, TVs, VCRs, CD and DVD players and other home electronics use energy even when they are turned off. In the average home, 40 per cent of all electricity used to power home electronics is consumed while the products are turned off. Consider unplugging your electronics or turning off the power bar when you’re finished with them.
  • A plasma T.V. that’s the same size as your older T.V. can use twice the energy. And the bigger your T.V., the more power it uses.
  • Save up to $57 a year by shutting down your computer for 12 hours a day.
  • Screen savers don’t save power; they just protect your screen. Instead, use the sleep-mode or energy-saving feature on your computer and save $18 a year.
  • Save power by turning off your computer monitor when you'll be away from your computer for more than 10 minutes.
  • Consider using a laptop instead of a desktop computer. Laptops use up to 90 per cent less power.
  • The smaller your computer monitor is, the less electricity it will use.
  • Flat-screen LCD computer monitors use about 66 per cent less electricity than standard monitors.
  • Turning a computer on and off doesn't use any extra electricity and won't damage your computer. Shutting it down reduces the wear on your computer and cuts down on your power use.

Every country in the world is going to be the victim of power crisis. But developing countries like India are going to face real problems very soon if we do not conserve power. So here are some basic tips which will help to reduce the power consumption in daily life.

Power saving tips:
Air conditioners
Keep the temperature at 23 degrees which is sufficient normally.
Use coolers instead of air conditioners.
Keep doors to the air conditioned area closed so less power is utilized.

Cell Phones
Use car chargers instead of plugging the charger into a wall socket at home.
Do not keep your phone for charging overnight it can also damage your battery by over charging.
When using the computer, charge your phone using the USB port (if possible).
This uses the power from the PSU-which may otherwise be wasted.

Desktop
Use LCD (TFT) monitors or TVs instead of CRTs whenever possible because CRT consumes more power.
If you aren't keen on playing games, avoid installing a graphics card, especially models with liquid cooling solutions.
Avoid over clocking your processor or graphics card if not necessary.
Set the monitor to automatically shut off or go in standby mode when idle.
Turn the monitor off when your computer is unattended.
Reduce the monitor’s luminosity till the point it is visible.

Laptops
Reduce the luminance of the back light.
Keep the wireless switch turned off if you are not connected to a network.
Charge your laptop batteries only after the battery is fully drained.
Use the balanced mode in power options which will help to utilize the processor only when needed.

General
When alone, use stereo headphones instead of Hi-Fi speakers.
When family members dine or watch TV in the same room, the need for lights and fans elsewhere doesn't arise so ensure that all other lights and fans are switched off.
Instead of keeping the television, music system, printer, scanner, speaker and any other appliance and device, on standby mode, switch them off completely. You can remove the power plug of devices which are not used from the socket and conserve power.
Keep a regular check on your monthly bill to curb power consumption.

So remember the above tips whenever you are dealing with electricity. This can help the country to overcome the power crisis to an extent and also you will be benefited by saving cash paid for your electricity bills.
