Hatshepsut mummy

The true mummy of ancient Egyptian queen Hatshepsut was discovered in the third floor of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, Secretary General of Supreme Council for Antiquities Zahi Hawwas revealed on Thursday.


The mummy was missing among thousands of artifacts lying in the museum, he said during his lecture at the New York-based Metropolitan Museum of Arts.


He said for decades archaeologists believed that a mummy found in Luxor was that of the Egyptian queen. It was a streak of luck, he said, to find this mummy.


The Metropolitan is hosting a Hatshepsut exhibition that displays 270 artifacts on the life history of the queen.


The American museum honoured Hawwas and his accompanying delegation in appreciation of their effort to unravel the mysteries of the Egyptian Pharaohnic age.

Fastest Train by 2012

Trains on the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railroad under construction will run at 350 km per hour, the fastest in the world, said Li Heping, a researcher at the China Academy of Railway Sciences on Friday.

The 1,318-km-long railway line, with a designed speed of 350 kilometers per hour, will beat the fastest rails in the world at present, which has a designed speed of 320 kilometers per hour, he said.

Trains will take less than five hours to make the run from the capital to Shanghai, which is now at least 11 hours.

The new rail line would be used for passenger service, while the existing one for cargo transportation, according to Li.

"The railway traffic strain will be greatly eased by 2012 as the country will increase investment and build faster rails and trains," he said.

The Ministry of Railways has said it planned to invest 1.2 trillion yuan (about 175.44 billion U.S. dollars) to improve the railway system, aiming to have 13,000 km of passenger lines by 2012.

According to Li, 8,000 km of the lines would allow trains to travel between 200 to 350 km per hour, and 5,000 km for trains with a speed from 200 to 250 km.

The money is part of the 4-trillion-yuan stimulus package announced by the government late last year, the ministry said.

Currently, there are not enough seats for all the people who want to travel, especially during the Lunar New Year every year, when millions are on the move for family reunion.

"Research on high-speed trains are going on smoothly," he said. The new trains would be batch-produced after trial operations in 2012.

China was developing trains that would run at a designed speed of 350 km per hour, and the speed for test might exceed 380 kilometers, according to Li.

China aimed to put 120,000 km of rail lines in service by 2020,of which 16,000 km would be dedicated to only passenger services, according to the Ministry of Railways.

To meet the 2020 target will require about 5 trillion yuan, the ministry said.

Advance technology in electronics-Access control

Access Control Systems allow the user the ability to determine who can go where and when. An audit trail provides accountability, while allowing for remote control of entry and exit devices. Events recorded to a head end computer may be linked to video, paging or alarm functions. By combining software and hardware, the system can be controlled, queried or programmed from anywhere on your network or via TCP/IP.

A true access control system provides more than just door control. It should give a complete picture by employee or by door of all activity in your facility. Do you ever wonder who was in over the weekend? Our access systems are based on time tested user friendly software and can allow monitoring and control in remote sites through your existing network.

COMPONENTS:

A typical system has four basic components:

* Software or WEB interface
* Door control modules
* Locking devices, door position sensors, rex's (request to exit sensors), and card readers.
* Cards and card readers.

"FUTURE PROOF" YOUR DECISIONS

"One Card Technology," is the ability to combine independent systems onto one card. Multiple tasks like magnetic strips for food plans, proximity for door access, bar code for library use, smart chips for vending account deduction and photo ID, can all be accomplished on one card. All of these systems work to increase security and improve controls. By choosing the right technology today, you can reduce the risk of having obsolete systems tomorrow.

EASY IDENTIFICATION

With the addition of a badge printer, the access cards may be printed with multiple custom designs. Employees are easily identified so visitors or intruders are more easily noticed.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

With all of our systems, our success is driven by our skilled and personable technical staff. Our crews are factory trained on all the systems we represent, and they have a "can do" attitude to work with you, to train you, and to help you understand your systems so you get the complete value from your investment.

special attraction of india-Ayurveda

Ayurveda is an old science more than 10,000 years old based on holistic approach and originated in India. Ayurveda is based on the principal of harmonious relationship between three humors(body fluid) called ‘doshas’ and believed that disharmony results disease to body. Ayurveda is not only a medicinal system but it is a science of life, it says that life is combination of four essential parts, mind, body, senses and soul. Ayurveda doesn’t confine to physical well being but it also an effect to spiritual, mental and emotional aspects.

Ayurveda has three main focuses. First one is to heal a disease, second one to prevent a disease and last one is the longevity or age reversal. Treatment of ayurveda is intricate and lengthy. Treatment with ayurveda is based on principle that various natural ingredients like shrubs, herbs, vegetables and even animals have some medicinal value. Process of making medicine is also complex and require skill. The medicinal properties of all the natural herbs have been documented by the practitioners and have been used for centuries to cure illness and physical and mental well being. Medicines are made up of herbs, metals, or combination of both and other animal origins. Treatment also included purification of both internal and external system, palliative treatment, and rejuvenation therapy, which consists of massage, mud and other various type of therapies. Ayurveda not only effects on physical but also alter psychological aspects of human being.

Lung cancer

Lung cancer is a disease of uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the lung. This growth may lead to metastasis, which is the invasion of adjacent tissue and infiltration beyond the lungs. The vast majority of primary lung cancers are carcinomas of the lung, derived from epithelial cells. Lung cancer, the most common cause of cancer-related death in men and the second most common in women (after breast cancer), is responsible for 1.3 million deaths worldwide annually. The most common symptoms are shortness of breath, coughing (including coughing up blood), and weight loss.

The main types of lung cancer are small cell lung carcinoma and non-small cell lung carcinoma. This distinction is important, because the treatment varies; non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is sometimes treated with surgery, while small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) usually responds better to chemotherapy and radiation. The most common cause of lung cancer is long-term exposure to tobacco smoke. The occurrence of lung cancer in nonsmokers, who account for as many as 15% of cases , is often attributed to a combination of genetic factors, radon gas, asbestos, and air pollution, including secondhand smoke.

iPod

iPod is a brand of moveable media players intended and marketed by Apple Inc. and launched on October 23, 2001 (2001-10-23). The product line-up includes the hard drive-based iPod typical, the touchscreen iPod Touch, the video-capable iPod Nano, and the compact iPod Shuffle. The iPhone can function as an iPod but is usually treated as a split product. Former iPod models comprise the iPod Mini and the by-product iPod Photo (since reintegrated into the main iPod Classic line). iPod Classic models store media on an internal hard drive, while all other models use flash memory to allow their smaller size (the discontinued Mini used a Microdrive miniature hard drive). As with several other digital music players, iPods, excluding the iPod Touch, can also serve up as external data storage devices. Storage capacity varies through model.
