WIRELESS MADE LIFE SIMPLE

Welcome everybody, so Today, we are going to know about technology. From technology, we have invented many types of intelligence, to make our life easier, so, one of the technologies we are going to discuss is Wireless. Now you can see everywhere the electronic equipment is wireless. The wireless technology uses radio waves for forming an electromagnetic radiation.

So what is a Wireless Technology? Wireless technology is the technology in which we don, ‘t require any wire or cable to communicate. This technology started from 1857-1894 by German physicist by discovering electromagnetic waves. Nowadays we use laptops, mobile, modem, routers are examples of wireless technology.

As Wireless had made our life easier there are some advantages to this technology.

First, is wireless had increased mobility by allowing users to accept the real-time information.

Second, it had a wider range of reaching networks as extended in the organization without any cables or wires.

Third, it also reduced the cost amount of ownership with a high initial extent investment.

Fourth, through wireless, the installation speed is very quick and easy while compared to the wired technology.

So these are the main advantages of wireless. As every time told that everything has advantages but also includes disadvantages.

First, the Wireless network is unstable for large distances from the object or the wireless networks.

Second, in wireless technology, the security of the technology is at a high risk as everyone can access the network, and also through the network, it can be hacked.

This is highly disadvantageous of Wireless technology, while there are many facts about wireless technology, you will be amazed.

1. Wi-Fi can be older than us. Yes, it’s true because a group developed that IEEE 802.11 which is later known as WiFi, which suggests WiFi is almost 30 years now.

2. Let me tell you that in our world, there are more than 9 billion of Wi-Fi devices.

3. In the whole world, South Korea has the fastest Wi-Fi speed of about 26.7 Mbps.

4. The word Wi-Fi has no meaning at all, as to avoid the confusion of advertising the wireless technology.

5. Nowadays, there is a drift of making our house in the wireless technology for a better security of home and families.

So these are the facts about wireless technology.

And lastly, I would like to say that, Yes, wireless had made our life easier, but we should be more careful and not to be careless and not to depend much on technology.

Yes, we can say that. It had helped us in many ways, in our life for improving our livelihood. Overall, the wireless technology is rapidly increasing also in the healthcare sector which is a big step to our future.

I hope you all like the article about wireless technology, also it may help you in any way I will be grateful for writing the article. Let me know in the comment box what you all think about this technology! Is the technology made our life simple or worse and what do you think about how can we improve this technology?

Thank you for reading this article I hope you all enjoyed it and have a nice day.

Migration History of Kohinoor Diamond India to England…

It is said to be unlucky for men to wear the Koh-i-Noor diamond owing to its long and bloody history. Mughal was found is stone. Kohinoor means the mountain of light, and Its name is derived from the Persian word Koh-i-Noor. Mohammed shah Rangila has the master of this precious diamond in the 18th century. Its magnanimous traits and size make it the most desirable precious stone. Kohinoor was originally 793 carats when uncut which makes the biggest diamond in the world. Mined in Kollur Mine, India, during the period of the Delhi Sultanate, there is no record of its original weight – but the earliest well-attested weight is 186 old carats (191 metric carats or 38.2 g). The diamond was part of the Mughal Peacock Throne. It changed hands between various factions in south and west Asia, until being ceded to Queen Victoria after the British annexation of Punjab in 1849.

Originally, the stone was of a similar cut to other Mughal-era diamonds, like the Darya-i-Noor, which are now in the Iranian Crown Jewels. In 1851, it went on display at the Great Exhibition in London, but the lackluster cut failed to impress viewers. Prince Albert, the husband of Queen Victoria, ordered it to be re-cut as an oval brilliant by Coster Diamonds. By modern standards, the culet is unusually broad, giving the impression of a black hole when the stone is viewed head-on; it is nevertheless regarded by gemologists as “full of life”.

in the past, there are many kings and the Mughals fought for Kohinoor, firstly Babur, the Turco-Mongol founder of the Mughal Empire, wrote about a “famous” diamond that weighed just over 187 old carats – approximately the size of the 186-carat Koh-i-Noor. Some historians think Babur’s diamond is the earliest reliable reference to the Koh-i-Noor. According to his diary, it was acquired by Alauddin Khalji, the second ruler of the Khalji dynasty of the Delhi Sultanate. Babur received the diamond in 1526 as a tribute for his conquest of Delhi and Agra at the Battle of Panipat. Shah Jahan, the fifth Mughal emperor, had the stone placed into his ornate Peacock Throne. In 1658, his son and successor, Aurangzeb, confined the ailing emperor to Agra Fort. While in the possession of Aurangzeb, it was allegedly cut by Hortense Borgia, a Venetian lapidary, reducing the weight of the large stone to 186 carats. For this carelessness, Borgia was reprimanded and fined 10,000 rupees.

In 1739 invasion of Delhi by Nadir Shah, the Afsharid Shah of Persia, the treasury of the Mughal Empire was looted by his army in an organized and thorough acquisition of the Mughal nobility’s wealth. Along with millions of rupees and an assortment of historic jewels, the Shah also carried away the Koh-i-Noor. After Nadir Shah was killed and his empire collapsed in 1747, the Koh-i-Noor fell to his grandson, who in 1751 gave it to Ahmad Shah Durrani, founder of the Afghan Empire, in return for his support. One of Ahmed’s descendants, Shuja Shah Durrani, wore a bracelet containing the Koh-i-Noor on the occasion of Mountstuart Elphinstone’s visit to Peshawar in 1808. A year later, Shuja formed an alliance with the United Kingdom to help defend against a possible invasion of Afghanistan by Russia. He was quickly overthrown but fled with the diamond to Lahore, where Ranjit Singh, founder of the Sikh Empire, in return for his hospitality, insisted upon the gem being given to him, and he took possession of it in 1813.

Ranjit Singh had the diamond examined by jewelers of Lahore for two days to ensure that Shuja had not tricked him. After the jewelers confirmed its genuineness, he donated 125,000 rupees to Shuja. Ranjit Singh then asked the principal jewelers of Amritsar to estimate the diamond’s value; the jewelers declared that the value of the diamond was “far beyond all computation”. Ranjit Singh then fixed the diamond in the front of his turban and paraded on an elephant to enable his subjects to see the diamond.

On 29 March 1849, following the conclusion of the Second Anglo-Sikh War, the Kingdom of Punjab was formally annexed to Company rule, and the Last Treaty of Lahore was signed, officially ceding the Koh-i-Noor to Queen Victoria and the Maharaja’s other assets to the company. Article III of the treaty read: “The gem called the Koh-i-Noor, which was taken from Shah Sooja-ool-moolk by Maharajah Ranjeet Singh, shall be surrendered by the Maharajah of Lahore to the Queen of England. On 1 February 1850, the jewel was sealed in a small iron safe inside a red dispatch box, both sealed with red tape and a wax seal and kept in a chest at Bombay Treasury awaiting a steamer ship from China. It was then sent to England for presentation to Queen Victoria in the care of Captain J. Ramsay and Brevet Lt. Col F. Mackeson under tight security arrangements, one of which was the placement of the dispatch box in a larger iron safe. They departed from Bombay on 6 April on board HMS Medea, captained by Captain Lockyer.

How Global Warming Can be Reduced???

Global warming is the ongoing rise of the average temperature of the Earth’s climate system and has been demonstrated by direct temperature measurements and by measurements of various effects of the warming. Glaciers are melting, sea levels are rising, cloud forests are dying and wildlife is scrambling to keep pace. It has become clear that humans have caused most of the past century’s warming by releasing heat-trapping gases as we power our modern lives. Called greenhouse gases, their levels are higher now than at any time in the last 800,000 years.

We often call the result global warming, but it is causing a set of changes to the Earth’s climate, or long-term weather patterns, that varies from place to place. The main reason for global warming is a term known as climate change. Climate change is referred to as a change in global or regional climate patterns, in particular a change apparent from the mid to late 20th century onwards and attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels.

We humans are one of the biggest reasons for increasing global warming in the world. We share the surroundings with other living beings as well but we never pay attention to it. We are turning every thing present in this world in a so called usable product. But we don’t care what it does to the environment. Anually there is an increase in carbon dioxide in air and other greenhouse gases as well like methane and carbon monoxide which are depleting the ozone layer and increasing temperature of the planet anually.

Global warming has become a grave problem which needs undivided attention. It is not happening because of a single cause but several causes. These causes are both natural as well as manmade. The natural causes include the release of greenhouses gases which are not able to escape from earth, causing the temperature to increase. Further, volcanic eruptions are also responsible for global warming. That is to say, these eruptions release tons of carbon dioxide which contributes to global warming. Similarly, methane is also one big issue responsible for global warming.

One more reason of global warming is deforestation. Cutting down trees to such an extent, that it starts harming the environment increasing temperature of the planet and causing ultraviolet rays to enter the planet. After that, the excessive use of automobiles and fossil fuels results in increased levels of carbon dioxide. In addition, activities like mining and cattle rearing are very harmful to the environment. One of the most common issues that are taking place rapidly is deforestation. So, when one of the biggest sources of absorption of carbon dioxide will only disappear, there will be nothing left to regulate the gas. Thus, it will result in global warming. Steps must be taken immediately to stop global warming and make the earth better again.

Solutions to Reduce Global Warming:-

  1. Go green, plant trees as many as you can. Don’t let anyone around you cut trees.
  2. Don’t throw waste from your kitchen, start home composting. Compost is considered as black gold. It is a great food and manure for our plants.
  3. Use the 3-R principles. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
  4. Say no to plastic, reuse plastic bags and containers, give e-waste to the e-waste recyclers.
  5. Be more sensitive towards environment. Spread as much awareness as you can.

For instance, when you go shopping, carry your own cloth bag. Another step you can take is to limit the use of electricity which will prevent the release of carbon dioxide. On the government’s part, they must regulate industrial waste and ban them from emitting harmful gases in the air. Deforestation must be stopped immediately and planting of trees must be encouraged.

In short, all of us must realize the fact that our earth is not well. It needs to treatment and we can help it heal. The present generation must take up the responsibility of stopping global warming in order to prevent the suffering of future generations. Therefore, every little step, no matter how small carries a lot of weight and is quite significant in stopping global warming.

Last one-and-a-half years have been most peaceful times in J&K, says DGP Dilbag Singh

In the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, Senior police and Army officers yesterday said that the last one-and-a-half years have been the most peaceful times in Jammu and Kashmir. They added that with every successful anti-militancy operation, security forces are moving on the path of peace.

Director General of Jammu and Kashmir Police (DGP) Dilbag Singh said that the last full year and about five-and-a-half months of this year have been the most peaceful months in terms of handling law and order in general and  the law and order situations around the anti-militancy operation sites in particular.

He was speaking at a joint press conference of senior officers of Army, Jammu and Kashmir Police and the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) in Srinagar yesterday. He said that the mission of the security forces is to stabilise peace in Jammu and Kashmir and they were continuously working towards attaining that. Mr Dilbag Singh further said that during the last about five-and-a-half months, over 100  terrorists have been neutralised, out of them over 50  were from the Hizbul Mujahideen, around 20 of them from the Lashkar-e-Taiba, 20 from the Jaish-e-Mohammed and the rest from smaller outfits like Al-Badr, Ansar Gazwatul Hind.

He added that about half-a-dozen successful operations have been conducted in Jammu region as well in which around a dozen terrorists have been neutralised. He said that Pir Panjal range is very well under control and Doda-Kishtwar is almost militancy-free with one terrorist remaining in Doda district and three in Kishtwar.

The DGP said the security forces have been successful only because people of the union territory were cooperating. He said that he would also like to compliment our youth if they are not joining terror ranks despite huge provocations by Pakistan and the agencies involved in the terror business.

He said the terrorist recruitment in the Valley has come down drastically. It has come down because of joint efforts of the civil society, parents, police officers on ground who maintain a very close liaison with people whose wards are likely to drift away. He said that they take many pre-emptive actions which are not brought to the fore deliberately just to ensure security of the youth concerned.

General Officer Commanding (GoC) of the Srinagar-based Chinar Corps, Lt Gen B S Raju while speaking on the situation said that with every operation, the security forces are moving on the path of peace. He said  there is a palpable difference that at the end of every operation, the next operation is taking place in much cleaner circumstances.

He added that he would also compliment people of Kashmir because they are believing in peace and it is this belief which is leading to the successful operations. He said he was sure that at the end of the next few months, they will be able to take this peace process forward and ensure that the normalcy is brought into the environment.

Lt Gen Raju said so far this year, the security forces have neutralised 102 terrorists and because of the professional manner in which these operations have been conducted, they have had just one or two civilian casualties. He said this means that the security forces have exercised extraordinary restraint and that is because they want to retain that connect with the people. He said of the 49 new terrorist recruits this year, 27 have been neutralised. But to stop this whole process, a large number of steps are being taken.

The Lt Gen said that they make fervent appeals to terrorists to surrender before the operations commences. He said that they have had limited success on this front but they have been very successful to prevent new recruitment as well as to identify those people who are on the cusp of recruitment. He further said that as far as the terrorist leadership is concerned, there is definitely a void taking place on a weekly basis. He added that there are places where the district commanders are  changed because of the intensity of the operations that are being conducted.

Centre asks states to follow guidelines for effective Home Isolation to curb COVID-19 spread

The Centre has written to the States to follow the guidelines for effective Home Isolation. The Health Ministry had  issued revised guidelines regarding Home Isolation on the 10th of last month. The Ministry said, as per the guidelines, very mild and pre-symptomatic COVID-19 patients can opt  for home isolation provided the patient has a room to himself or herself with toilet facility and has an adult attendant or caregiver. Also, the patient shall agree to monitor his or her health and regularly inform the health status to the District Surveillance Officer for further follow up by the surveillance teams.

The Ministry said, an important clause of the revised guidelines is that the treating doctor is satisfied with the patient opting for home isolation based on medical assessment and assessment of his or her residential accommodation. In addition, the patient will fill in an undertaking on self-isolation and shall follow home quarantine guidelines. The Ministry said that all such cases of home isolation will also be further monitored by teams of well-oriented doctors on a regular basis, their discharge should follow the required guidelines and shall be reported as per norms.

The Ministry some instances have been noticed wherein home isolation is allowed in a routine manner in certain States, and clauses of the revised guidelines are not being followed in letter and spirit.

It urged the States to ensure strict implementation of the Guidelines on Home Isolation at the field level to effectively curb spread of COVID-19 pandemic.

Sports Ministry to establish 1000 district-level Khelo India centers to engage past champions in training

Government has decided to establish 1000 Khelo India Centers (KIC) at the district level across the country. These centers will either be run by a past champion or have them as coaches. The move is to tap into the expertise of past sporting champions for grassroot-level training of athletes and also to ensure a sustained source of income for them in the sports ecosystem.

The decision, while strengthening grassroot level sports, will also ensure that past champions can contribute in making India a sporting superpower while earning a livelihood from sports. Speaking about this decision, Union Sports Minister  Kiren Rijiju said, as the government strives to make India a sporting superpower, one of the things we have to ensure is that sports becomes a viable career option for youngsters.

He said the Centre wants to ensure that anyone who has played sport at the national level has a life of dignity and financial stability. A shortlisting mechanism has been put in place to identify past champions who are eligible to either establish their own academy or work as a coach in a KIC. To build the country-wide network of Khelo India Centres, existing SAI extension centres will be given the option of converting into a KIC and recruiting a past champion to avail the financial grant under the scheme.

5 Easy Proofreading Tips

Proofreading is an important, but often overlooked, part of the writing process. A few spelling and grammar mistakes can hurt your grade and leave a negative impression. Follow these simple proofreading tips to ensure that your writing is error-free:

Give yourself enough time for revisions

Avoid procrastinating on assignments and allow yourself enough time to review your work thoroughly. You’re more likely to recognize mistakes when you’re not burnt out or under pressure to meet a deadline. It’s wise to give yourself at least a few hours before the assignment is due so that you can check for errors and make necessary revisions.

Use spellcheck

It’s common for students to make spelling or grammar errors while typing, many of which can easily go unnoticed by the writer. Luckily, most word processing applications have a spellcheck function that catches your mistakes before you do. A misspelled word will likely be underlined in red, while a grammatical error might be underlined in blue or green. Pay attention to these marks and be sure to complete a full spellcheck sweep before you submit your work.

Print it out and read it aloud

Spellcheck is a great tool for fixing spelling and grammar mistakes, but it does not catch all errors. After you have finished your spellcheck, print out a copy of your work and review it yourself. Read aloud to check for missing, repeated and misused words. Make sure that your sentences flow smoothly and that you have used the right punctuation. Reading aloud forces you to look closely at each sentence and allows you to recognize errors that you might have otherwise missed.
Look for common errors
Look back on past assignments and review the instructor’s feedback. Do you struggle with proper comma use? Are there words that you tend to misspell? Note these issues and make a point to correct them in future assignments.

Have a friend or professor provide feedback

After you have finished proofreading, ask someone else to review your paper. He or she might find additional mistakes or have advice as to how you can improve your writing in the future. Seeking feedback from your peers and professors is a great learning opportunity and will help you become a better writer and proofreader.
All good writers take extra steps to proofread their work. Proofreading ensures that the final version of your paper is error-free and increases your chances of making a positive impression on your reader. You’ve already put in the work to write the paper — why not make it the best that it can be?
