osteoathritis and homeopathy

2011-12-05T12:54:00.001+05:30

The two most indicated remedies for osteoathritis are Rhus Tox and Bryonia. Rhus Tox is worse in the morning, but better for first getting going and is worse in cold damp weather. Bryonia is a remedy where the patient is very thirsty and is worse for the slightest movement and better for rest. You could try this and it could really help with pain control.

Also, another good constitutional remedy for both osteo and rheumatoid arthritis is Calc Carb, but I would suggest consulting a Classical Homeopath for this to find the constitutional remedy. A constitutional remedy given in a low dose could work very well.

Glucosamine is also very good,

Anyway, I would try and Rhus Tox or Bryonia,

select rhus tox for restlessness and a desire to move about continually because of the relief brought by the movement. One feels worse when rising from a sitting position or when first starting to move. Cold and damp weather cause aggravation, but warmth brings relief.

Select Bryonia when moving causes an aggravation.
Rhus tox . Rheumatism wih stiffness worse Ist motion, worse during rainy season, better when continued walking.

Bryonia . Joints are red, hot, swollen. Pain worse last motion better after rest, pressure.

Homeopathy Dosage Directions

Chronic disorders create a challenge for homeopathic practitioners, so patients, especially those with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), should avoid self-medication. Homeopathy is highly individualized, as the homeopath considers details about the patient’s health, lifestyle, preferences and symptoms.

Many homeopaths suggest taking one dose and waiting for a response. If the patient sees improvement, then the patient is asked to allow the remedy to work. If improvement lags significantly or has clearly stopped, another dose is indicated. The frequency of dosage varies with the condition and the individual. If no response is seen within a reasonable amount of time, select a different remedy.

Homeopathic Remedies for Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)

Because rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disorder, homeopathy works on RA symptoms by optimizing the body’s defense system. Homeopathic medicines may also be helpful when supported by conventional treatment. Among the most common homeopathic preparations for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are Apis (from bee venom), Arnica, Bryonia (wild hops), Ledum (from marsh tea), and Rhus toxicodenron (from poison ivy).

Apis (honeybee) is often associated with acute symptoms, especially swelling and tenderness. Joints feel hot and have stinging pain. Apis reduces the stiffness and pain, mostly around hands and knees. Cool applications bring relief, while warmth can aggravate the symptoms.

Arnica is used when the patient fears being hit by anyone passing. Other indications for using this treatment include arthritic pains in the foot that get worse toward evening and a big toe joint that is red and feels as though it has been sprained.

Bryonia (Bry) is used for inflammation, swelling and soreness of muscle tissue, joints and bursa sacs (containing synovia). The joints also are swollen, red and hot. Discomfort is aggravated by dry, cold weather. The pains are sharp, throbbing or tearing in character, and even the slightest motion or touch creates discomfort. Relief can come if pressure is used to stabilize the area. Cold applications often reduce discomfort.

Ledum (Led) is distinctive for helping when the pain moves upward, especially from the toes, traveling up through the ankles to the knees. It feels worse from motion and from the warmth of a bed. There is a tendency toward the formation of nodes in the small joints. Ledum eases hot swelling of the hip joint and can be used when the ball of the great toe is painful and swollen, and it feels sore when stepping with it. The joints may make cracking sounds and be swollen. Cold applications bring relief to both the pain and swelling.

Rhus toxicodendron (Rhus-t) is used for restlessness and a desire to move about continually because of the relief brought by the movement. One feels worse when rising from a sitting position or when first starting to move. Cold and damp weather cause aggravation, but warmth brings relief. Rhus Bryonia is used when moving causes an aggravation.

Other possible remedies include Causticum (Caust), Pulsatilla (Puls), Kalmia (Kalm), Cimicifuga (Cimic), Colchicum (Colch), Sanguinaria (Sang) and Phytolacca (Phyt).

Homeopathy Remedies for Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis is primarily due to wear and tear on the joints. It most commonly develops through aging, but can also occur due to trauma to a joint. Many possible homeopathic treatments exist for osteoarthritis, and are chosen to meet the individual specific conditions.

Rhus toxicodendron is one of the best remedies for arthritis. It is particularly useful for conditions that have marked stiffness in the joints, worse with weather changes, and better with movement. Often people who are restless benefit from this remedy.

Calcarea carbonica is used for arthritis that feels worse in cold or damp conditions, especially when the knees are the most painful part of the experience. People who are out of shape and overweight are often prescribed this remedy.

Calcarea fluorica is often recommended when the arthritis is related to past injuries.

Kali carbonicum may be used when a person’s joints have been permanently swollen or joints have been deformed through arthritis.

Homeopathy Remedies for Gout

Gout is a disturbance in the uric acid metabolism and is characterized by arthritic attacks. Four homeopathy treatments offer potential relief of gout.

Arnica is commonly used in gout due to the painful trauma-like symptoms of the condition. Fear of physical contact to the affected joint also suggests this as the appropriate remedy.

Aconite is most useful in acute attacks of gout in the joints of the feet. It is best used during the onset of symptoms. If continued for a day or two, it is said to cure many cases.

Ammonium phosphoricum (Am-p) is a useful for chronic, rather than acute, cases of gout, in which there are deposits in the joints and the hands get twisted out of shape.

Colchicum (Colch) is called for when swelling is highly tender to the touch, appears red or pale, and there is a tendency to shift about from joint to joint. Pain is worse with even a slight motion. Other symptoms of the patient include abdominal bloating and irritability. The smaller joints, such as the fingers, toes, wrists and ankles, are affected. The pains can be so sharp that the patient cannot bear to be touched or to have anyone come near.

Homeopathy Remedies for Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder characterized by widespread muscle pain, fatigue and multiple tender points. Along withArnica Bryonia and Rhus toxicodendron, patients might be given Hypericum. This dilution is useful for prickly pain that radiates along nerve pathways, is worse with movement, and worse when touched. This remedy is especially effective for pain in the extremities.

Advice on bed wetting in kids-

1. Try to understand your daughter's psychology. Is she nervous, tensed or afraid of something? Are there family fights in the house? Does she pass urine while watching television? Do you scold or nag her? Solve these issues and then guide her.

2. Tell her to avoid drinking water after 8 pm in the night.

3. Ask her if she is having an urge to urinate, then encourage her to retain till she goes to the toilet. This will improve bladder control and gain retention capacity.

Many of us have 'grass-is-greener-on-the-other-side-syndrome'. We hear a friends story and think, "Why couldn't I have that", or, worse "I wish my husband/children could be like her husband/children". The truth of the matter is not only about gratefullness. It's about being happy with your choices, and realistic about your feelings. Being unhappy about life is easy, it takes a bit of effort to make the things in your own life seem better to you, and it starts with realising what is important.
I hope the following poem will help you to appreciate what you have, AND find the happiness in it:
Someone will always be prettier.
Someone will always be smarter.
Some of their houses will be bigger.
Some will drive a better car.
Their children will do better in school.
And their husband will fix more things around the house.
So let it go, and love you and your circumstances.
Think about it!
The prettiest woman in the world can have hell in her heart.
The most highly favored woman on your job may be unable to have children.
The richest woman you know, she's got the car, the house, the clothes - might be lonely.
So, love who you are.
Look in the mirror in the morning and smile and say, "I am too Blessed to be Stressed and too Anointed, to be Disappointed!'' Winners make things happen - Losers let things happen.

Environmental Protection in Islam

2011-10-14T23:56:00.001+05:30

http://www.islamreligion.com/articles/307/viewall/

QURAN AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

2011-10-10T07:08:00.001+05:30

Pollution is one form of corruption ("fasal" in Arabic) mentioned in the Glorious Quran eight times. Counting the derivations of the word "fasal" mentioned elsewhere in the Quran raises the number to 49. "Fasal" involves physical corruption like disrupting the environmental phenomena and the contents of the universe (water, soil, food) by foolish human interference in the natural balance created by Allah the Almighty, Who did so wisely, perfectly and infallibly to fit the life of all creatures.

Water pollution in general means polluting water streams, wells, rivers, seas, rain and underground water in such a way that makes it unfit for man, animals, plants, or the sea and ocean creatures. Air pollution involves the discharge of gases, smoke and fumes (the solid, liquid and gaseous forms of matter) into the air surrounding living creatures, and the change of its natural composition. This leads ultimately to the unsuitability of the habitat, contrary to what Allah willed for His creatures. Physiological, economic and biological damages are, in fact, devastating to man, animals, plants and other creatures.

The corrupters of the earth, whether those who deny God, practice injustice or go against the universal laws, are referred to by the following Quranic verses.

"There is the type of man whose speech about this world's life may dazzle thee, and he calls The God (Allah) to witness about what is in his heart: yet is he the most contentious of enemies? When he turns his back, his aim everywhere is to spread mischief through the earth and destroy crops and cattle. But Allah loves not mischief" (Al-Baqarah: verses 204 and 205)

An incidence occurred prior to these verses being revealed. A man named Al-Akhnas Ibn Shuriq came to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to embrace Islam, but as he turned to leave, he happened to pass by a pasture and grazing animals. He set it alight and killed the cattle. The verses were sent down as a sign of Divine disapproval.

This incident recurs over history on a wider scale involving millions of people throughout the earth. The natural wealth deposited by Allah for the benefit of mankind has been spoiled. Selfishness and aggression has overcome mankind, as they have become corrupters of earth, the surrounding atmosphere and neighboring outer space.

How ENVO was born

2011-10-09T11:33:00.004+05:30

THE LINES I HIGHLIGHTED ARE SO SIMILAR TO MY OWN LIFE....

1. Belief in Destiny, whatever happens , happens for good. : (I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do.You have to trust in something - your destiny)

2. I also got fired from my own companies . That first kick stunned me for three days and I sat at banglawali masjid at nizamuddin for three days to find out my own roots. And Syed Envo Protect (I) Pvt Limited was finally born....the ENVO brand is born..... I got the bitter experience of being side stepped or overtaken smartly a few more times in life. But I always emerged strong...much much stronger.My faith in GOD, my faith in MYSELF become very very stronger.Now these things never bother me. (How can you get fired from a company you started? I really didn't know what to do for a few months.It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it.)

3. My own DREAM---"ENVO" : (Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

4. My Passion: My work. of water treatment. ( Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.)

5. There is still a lot to learn, I try to learn from everybody and atleast one new thing every day : Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish

and lastly 6. Following the Hadith "live each day as if it is your last" : "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?"

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish: Steve Jobs' speech at Stanford

Indo-Asian News Service
Washington, October 06, 2011

Source of Article: http://www.hindustantimes.com/stay-hungry-stay-foolish-steve-jobs-speech-at-stanford/article1-754153.aspx

This is the "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish" address delivered by Steve Jobs in 2005 at Stanford University:

I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I've

ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal. Just three stories.

The first story is about connecting the dots.

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?

It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.

And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.

It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example:

Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating.

None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
My second story is about love and loss.

I was lucky - I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation - the Macintosh - a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.

I really didn't know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me - I still loved what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.

I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.

During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple's current renaissance. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.

I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.

My third story is about death.

When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn't even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.

I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I'm fine now.

This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960's, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.

Stewart and his team put out several issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Beneath it were the words: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish." It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

Thank you all very much.

If you've been reading our blog and other marketing blogs out there, hopefully you're convinced that setting up a Facebook Page can be beneficial to your business. With Facebook now amassing over 750 million active users, it's hard to deny that your prospects and current customers are using Facebook to connect with others and gather information to influence their purchasing decisions -- probably about the very products and services you offer! And if you haven't created a Page yet, what on earth are you waiting for?
But creating your business Page is only the first step. Nurturing a Facebook presence that actually provides business benefits takes some work. That's why we've gathered the following 20 expert tips to help you take your Facebook marketing to the next level.
We couldn't have said it better ourselves!

1. Ask Questions

"It’s not enough to be broadcasting promotional messages — brands should make an effort at engaging with their audiences. Asking questions is a great way to kick off that two-way dialogue." - Erica Swallow, Mashable

2. Don't Over-Automate

"Don’t automatically feed your blog posts or your Twitter updates into your Page. Often, automated content doesn’t make it into users’ News Feeds." - Ekaterina Walter, social media strategist, Intel

3. Don't Make it All About You

"As a rough rule of thumb, post four status updates on items about outside news items or discoveries for every post promoting a product. And when you do mention a product or service, try to do so in a helpful way." - JD Lasica, Socialmedia.biz

4. Leverage Testimonials & Feedback

"Use Facebook to engage directly with your customers and make them part of your marketing efforts... Ask customers to share their successes on your wall and get feedback on new product features." - Leyl Master Black, managing director, Sparkpr

5. Be Human and Personable

"The most successful B2B pages often combine demonstrations of expertise with humor and personality, sounding more like a real conversation than stilted marketing and sales speak." - Karlie Justus, Social Media B2B

6. Offer Variety

"Mix it up a little between videos, photos, questions, information, etc. Don’t have your own videos? YouTube is a treasure trove of ‘em, and sharing sites like Reddit and Digg are great sources to discover stuff people like." - Linda Bustos, GetElastic

7. Be Active

"Don’t take it for granted that you have a page available. No matter how great you’ve made it, if you aren’t active, it defeats the whole purpose of having one." - Orli Yakuel, TechCrunch

8. Post Engaging, Thought-Provoking Content

"Unless they’re interesting enough to draw comments, simple status updates aren’t going to move you into Top News feeds. Publish content that naturally encourages click-throughs or creates discussion." Jim Lodico, Social Media Examiner

9. Make Requests

"Want your fans to express their views on a topic? Ask them. Want your fans to share their favorite content with you? Ask them. Want your fans to share your content? Ask them. You get the point." - Ekaterina Walter, social media strategist, Intel

10. Address Negativity With Tact

"Should there be a negative comment, which scares many B2B companies, address it with understanding and sincerity. In most cases, transparency and listening go a long way in stemming off negative feedback." - Dave Folkens, TopRank Online Marketing Blog

11. Keep it Fresh

"Update your group or fan page on a regular basis with helpful information and answers to questions." - Debbie Hemley, Social Media Examiner

12. Be Consistent

"Nothing makes for a bad Facebook Group or Page than stagnant content. Like a corporate blog or dynamic website, you need to engage people regularly. Even if it’s just posting a new message board topic each week, do something on a regular basis (the more frequent the better) to elicit a response from folks." - Jason Falls, Social Media Explorer

13. But Don't Go Overboard

"One or two strong Facebook updates per day is better than a half dozen scattershot updates that fly by and don’t have the staying power to attract people’s feedback." - JD Lasica, Socialmedia.biz

14. Encourage Action

"Don’t be afraid to ask users to share objects or click on the Like button—especially if you’re new to Facebook. It can take a little while for a Facebook page to gain momentum. Anything you can do to help it along will only speed the process." Jim Lodico, Social Media Examiner

15. Promote Your Page Offline

"If your business is run from physical premises, put a placard on the front desk letting your customers know you’re on Facebook." - Mari Smith, Social Media Examiner

16. Offer Contests and Giveaways

"Contests and giveaways should not require much effort on the part of your fans but should offer something real and valuable to them." - Candis Hidalgo, content and social media marketing director, FaceItPages.com

17. Provide Incentives & Motivation

"If you want to get people to Like your Facebook page, and become more familiar with your products and services, a strong incentive can help achieve this." - Graham Charlton, Econsultancy

18. Think Strategically About Timing

"Because you have just a short window of opportunity to gain traction with a Share (time decay factor), think carefully when planning frequency and content, and timing. Consider time zones – if you always post at the same time of day, Fans across the pond may never see your updates. Spread the love!" - Linda Bustos, GetElastic

19. Understand How Facebook Works

"Write for the newsfeed, not for your wall...Though some people will be led straight to your wall through a link or ad for example, your existing fans are going to see your update in their newsfeed...Remember that saying something like ‘check out our tab on the side’ is completely out of context for people seeing this update in their newsfeed." - Lauren Fisher, The Next Web

20. Analyze Engagement

"Monitor which posts attract the most Likes and comments (eyeball), and use Insights – Facebook’s own analytics tool – for data. (Integrating your Facebook Page provides much better data)." - Linda Bustos, GetElastic

1.Facebook tagging: No complicated procedures; just be the first to tag your name on any product in the photo and I will give updates for that product FREE to you. Its easy to participate.

2.Helpful: Being sincere and generous would make customers more generous towards your brand too. The world works on reciprocity more than you can imagine.

3.Interactive: To keep your campaign engaging and viral, it has to be interactive. Users don't just read your ad and go, they respond and get more involved. IKEA made what could be a static showroom picture dynamic. That's no easy feat! It did not require an application, just photos. That just blows me away.

Grab attention, demand response, be memorable

Creating a successful social media campaign can be done with different tactics. It can involve elements of fun, humor, mystery, exclusivity, reward, novelty and et cetera. Your campaign is up for you to shape. No matter what you come up with, remember to grab attention, demand response and be memorable.

"Much like the media, social networking sites reach everybody.Most status updates and pictures are to show how witty you are, a perception that is you.ITS A SUPERFICIAL WORLD.Your personal space is your personal space. Respect it.NEVER SHARE PERSONAL THINGS ON FACEBOOK. A rule of thumb is to announce in FACEBOOK only the positive - a new job, a celebration or new degree. Steer clear of washing dirty linen in public. Do not talk about your bad day at work , about your boss , client or your unpleasant marriage. Remember: 500 friends of friends do not need to know.

THE DAILY MANTRA : ONE BOWL OF OATS EVERYDAY

Oats:
Dietary fibre plays an important role in maintaining our health and protecting us against many diseases like diabetes, heart disease. Oats, oat bran, and oatmeal contain a specific type of fibre known as beta-glucan. It is a soluble fibre that helps in decreasing LDL (bad cholesterol). One of the special things about the way oats work unlike other fibres is that it lowers only bad cholesterol while levels of good cholesterol (HDL) remain unchanged. This means an even better ratio between total cholesterol and HDL, ensuring increased protection against heart disease. Oatmeal is the only wholegrain food recognised by the FDA to lower cholesterol and the risk of heart disease, thereby allows its claim as a heart protective ingredient in food labels. Studies also show that in individuals with high cholesterol (above 220 mg/dl), consuming just 3 grams of soluble oat fibre per day (an amount found in a bowl of oatmeal) typically lowers total cholesterol.

OTHER THINGS YOU MAY CONSIDER :

Soyabean:
Soy protein protects against various heart diseases and hypercholesterolemia as it decreases LDL (bad cholesterol) significantly, increases HDL (good cholesterol) and prevents oxidation of bad cholesterol to prevent oxidation in blood vessels.

Green tea:
Several studies have suggested that drinking either green or black tea may lower blood cholesterol concentration, blood pressure and inhibit clotting of blood, providing some protection against cardiovascular disease. While green tea benefits arise from catechins, black tea benefits arise from theaflavins, both of which inhibit oxidation of bad cholesterol LDL. Tea contains significant amounts of folic acid. Folic acid helps reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. A person could obtain up to 25 per cent of RDA for folic acid by drinking five cups a day.

Barley ('jau'):
Several scientific researches have found that barley has some unique health-promoting effects, particularly for the heart. Its cholesterol fighting effects seem to be even more promising than oats. Studies suggest that barley can lower cholesterol levels as much as 15 per cent in individuals with elevated cholesterol levels.
Like oats, barley too is a good source of "beta glucan", a water soluble form of fibre, which seems to retard fat and cholesterol absorption by the intestine. The fibre tends to bind bile salts, thus increasing cholesterol removal from the body, and fat soluble substances, tocotrienols (vitamin E) appear to suppress cholesterol synthesis by the liver.

Psyllium husk: (ISABGUL)
The good old 'Isabgol' is high in insoluble fiber (hemi-cellulose) and soluble fibre. Psyllium has also been known to exhibit cardio-protective role as it helps in lowering blood cholesterol, especially the undesirable fraction of serum cholesterol, lowdensity lipoprotein (LDL), triglycerides, apo-lipoprotein B and reducing inflammation. Cholesterol lowering properties of psyllium can be attributed to its high fibre content and presence of beta-sitosterol (a phyto-chemical).

Landfill Leachate Treatment

2011-09-17T20:54:00.003+05:30

Landfill Leachate Treatment

Landfill leachate is generated from liquids existing in the waste as it enters a landfill or from rainwater that passes through the waste within the facility. The leachate consists of different organic and inorganic compounds that may be either dissolved or suspended. An important part of maintaining a landfill is managing the leachate through proper treatment methods designed to prevent pollution into surrounding ground and surface waters

The physical appearance of leachate when it emerges from a typical landfill site is a strongly odoured black, yellow or orange coloured cloudy liquid. The smell is acidic and offensive and may be very pervasive because of hydrogen, nitrogen and sulfur rich organic species such asmercaptans.

If leachates have a distinguishing characteristic, it is that they are variable. Flows change based on the weather – increasing during rainy periods, decreasing during dry and waste concentrations can change dramatically over the life of the landfill. As a result, no landfill leachate is constant over time, and no two leachates are the same.

When the landfill is a few years old the dominated fermentation phase is acidogenic and the leachate generated is generally referred as “young”.In that case, COD and BOD reaches very high concentrations. The ratio of BOD/COD is higherthan 0.7 and pH is low due to the high concentrations VFAs. Landfill grater than 10 years old aregenerally in the methanogenic phase and theleachate generated is referred to as “old”. Duringthe methanogenic phase, bacterias are degradingthe VF-acids and reduce the organic strength ofleachate, leading to the pH value higher than 7.In “old” leachate BOD decreases faster than CODand the radio BOD/COD is stabilized on the levelless than 0.2 [2,4].Anaerobic treatmentprocess is used mainly for young landfill leachate,which BOD5 and BOD5/COD ratio is very high[2]. However, Kettunen, et al. [10] performedthe treatment with UASB reactor were municipal landfill leachate was having COD higher than800 mg × dm−3 and the BOD/COD radio washigher than 0.3.Anaerobic processes of landfill leachate inUASB reactor allow complete removal of CODfrom 65 to 76% and BOD5 removal beyond90% [11].

UNITS OF TREATMENT OF LANDFILL LEACHATE:

1. Collection Sump: Areas in which rainfall is higher than average typically have larger sumps. A further criterion for sump planning is accounting for the pump capacity. The relationship of pump capacity and sump size is inversed. If the pump capacity is low, the volume of the sump should be larger than average. It is critical for the volume of the sump to be able to store the expected leachate between pumping cycles. This relationship helps maintain a healthy operation. Sump pumps can function with preset phase times. If the flow is not predictable, a predetermined leachate height level can automatically switch the system on. Other conditions for sump planning are maintenance and pump drawdown. Collection pipes typically convey the leachate by gravity to one or more sumps, depending upon the size of the area drained. Leachate collected in the sump is removed by pumping.

LITERATURE STUDY: WASTE TO ENERGY CONCEPTS

Energy recovery as electric power is a feature of all waste-to-energy systems.

Evaluation of the applicability of the technologies of biomethanation, gasification/pyrolysis,incineration and landfilling as Waste-to-Energy options, and their comparison against composting as a competing technology for waste disposal, has shown the following:

• Biomethanation has emerged as a favoured technology for various urban and industrial waste.

• Gasification/pyrolysis have a distinct promise, and although there are limitations to its uptake, these can be overcome as the technology matures.

• Incineration is a mature technology for energy recovery from urban and industrial wastes and has been sucessfully commercialized in the developed countries. The recent focus has been on environmental compliance due to which it will become an expensive option.

• The present trend is in favour of material recovery facilities and a shift away from landfills for MSW disposal in developed countries.

• Compositing is not a WTE option and does not come out as worthwhile waste treatment process.

• Technologies like landfill with gas recovery and composting can become viable options for certain locations in

India

, as a short to medium term option.

Landfill Leachate Treatment Technologies

Landfill leachate may be characterized as a water-based solution of four groups of contaminants ; dissolved organic matter (alcohols, acids, aldehydes, short chain sugars etc.), inorganic macro components (common cations and anions including sulfate, chloride, Iron, aluminium, zinc and ammonia), heavy metals (Pb, Ni, Cu, Hg) , and xenobiotic organic compounds such as halogenatedorganics, (PCBs, dioxins, etc.).^[4]

Leachate treatment technologies fall into two basic types, biological and physical/chemical. In larger systems and depending on the treatment goals, integrated systems which combine the two are often used.
The typical processes used for pretreatment include equalization, aeration, pH adjustment and metals removal.

The most common biological treatment is activated sludge - a suspended-growth process that uses aerobic microorganisms to biodegrade organic contaminants in leachate. With conventional activated-sludge treatment, the leachate is aerated in an open tank with diffusers or mechanical aerators. After the aeration phase, the mixed liquor of microorganisms and leachate is pumped to a gravity clarifier.

The rotating biological contactor (RBC) is an attached-growth, aerobic, biological treatment process in which a series of discs are partially submerged in a tank of leachate. The disks eventually develop a slime layer, then rotational shear forces strip off the excess solids and carry them with the effluent to a clarifier, where they are settled and separated from the treated waste.

The carbon technique removes dissolved organics from the leachate. Although carbon systems may be useful with some older leachates, the cost of the carbon in the regeneration stage can make the process one of the most expensive treatment options.

Advanced Treatment The new landfill regulations have made some treatment systems obsolete. Many landfill operators are now choosing new systems that produce a cleaner effluent and can reduce capital and operating expenses. Such systems include:

* Recirculation and Injection. Direct recirculation distributes the leachate onto the landfill in a semi-closed loop process. While promising, this system has limitations of recirculating 100 percent of the leachate without literally soaking the landfill.

* Membrane Solution. Membrane technology can be adapted to many steps of purification and keep clean-up standards at a high level. Membranes can remove contaminants without extensive biological infrastructure or toxic chemicals.

* Reverse Osmosis (RO). Prior to 1988, reverse osmosis wasn't able to treat leachate successfully due to the core membrane design of spiral-wound modules, which were state-of-the-art at that time. While this method produced efficient results, it also promoted bio-fouling and premature clogging.

Disc Tube technology, developed by the Rochem Group, has been installed in more than 35 European landfills to treat feed waters that would foul conventional RO configurations. After the contaminated water is fed into the tubular chamber, its flow is controlled as it passes through a system of discs and over flat membrane cushions, removing clean water and concentrating the waste material. The turbulent flow reduces the membranes' tendency to scale or foul and requires cleaning less frequently.

The system removes heavy metals, suspended solids, ammonia and hazardous non-degradable organics including pesticides and herbicides without extensive pre-treatment systems. The pure water is clean enough for direct discharge into the environment and accounts for 75 to 92 percent of the leachate. The remaining concentrate can then be recycled to the landfill or further processed.

Siemens Water Technologies' PACT® systems combine biological treatment (activated sludge) with adsorption (powdered activated carbon) so that physical and biological treatment occur simultaneously. The system removes biodegradable and non-biodegradable pollutants in a single process

The most cost effective form of treatment for high levels of BOD, COD and ammonia is intense biological oxidation, and in the

the sequential batch reactor is the most common technology used. The sequence batch reactor (SBR) is a form of activated sludge treatment.

Granular activated carbon, in combination with biological pretreatment, is a proven and economical technology which is effective in reducing Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Adsorbable Organic Halogens (AOX), pesticides, solvents, organic compounds and other toxic substances to the strictest legal National and EC norms. The chemical composition and content of landfill leachate can vary greatly between landfill sites. The age of the landfill, type of waste and treatment processes already in operation are the parameters to be considered.

COD levels can range from 200mg/l to 2000mg/l. Carbon consumption is normally dependent upon the COD adsorption rather than the AOX. Therefore COD will be the determining factor in estimating carbon consumption.

However, an aerobic system must be used after the UASB reactor for the effluent to meet the standards defined for the proposed disposal method.

Combined treatment of leachate from sanitary landfill and municipal wastewater by UASB reactors

This study showed the potential of anaerobic treatment in an UASB reactor treating a combination of domestic wastewater and leachate in a 5% volumetric ratio of leachate. Under these conditions the reactor assimilated properly the leachate fraction incorporated. With a HRT of 8 h and a mean volumetric organic load of 2.84 kg m(-3) d(-1) COD removal efficiencies around 70% were obtained,

When installing a leachate treatment system, choose a plan that will provide the maximum amount of long-term flexibility to assure compliance with future regulations and discharge standards.

LEACHATE RECYCLE CONCEPT :The major objective of gas studies is directed towards maximizing production rates of gas by biodegradation of the waste while simultaneously reducing the period of time that gas is evolved by recycling leachate. It describes potential means of managing both leachate quality and quantity by leachate recirculation to aid in decomposition of the waste while also treating the organic material in the leachate and reducing the quantity of leachate that must be treated and hauled away from the site.

Name of Project "Methane recovery and power generation from sewage treatment plant by Surat Municipal Corporation, Gujarat, India" at Bhatar, Karanj and Singanpore of Surat District by M/s Surat Municipal Corporation.

Location of the Project (Village / District / State) Bhatar, Karanj and Singanpore of Surat District, Gujarat.

Brief Description of the Project The proposed project is planning to install a 3MW power plant based on Sewage gas obtained during sewage treatment process. Biogas is generated from the digesters during the anaerobic sludge treatment process in the sewage treatment plant. This biogas contains 60-75%CH4, 25-40%CO2 and H2S well below 0.5%. The H2S contained in biogas is highly corrosive and it is required to remove this hydrogen sulphide to the desired limit. The Biogas collecting blowers are used to collect the gas from the digesters, which blow the biogas to H2S scrubbing system to remove H2S from biogas. Then biogas could be used to generate electricity. The biogas holder is provided to boost the pressure of biogas to desired level for the biogas engine. Biogas engine type is spark ignited internal combustion engine. The electricity generated by biogas engine generator set is used to run various units of sewage treatment plant.

Bioreactor Landfills

PBS&J is very familiar with a wide range of leachate treatment technologies, including recirculation, in which leachate is transferred from the bottom of the landfill to the top. We have been closely involved with organizations that are refining the process of leachate recirculation to create landfills that are "bioreactors," using leachate and other sources of liquid to maximize the decomposition process and thereby extending the life of a landfill.

Leachate Evaporation and Cotreatment

Landfills that collect and flare their landfill gas have an opportunity to use this energy to economically manage leachate via evaporation. PBS&J assists landfill owners in evaluating the cost-effectiveness of this disposal alternative and in implementing leachate evaporation systems. PBS&J also offers experience in cotreating leachate with other wastewaters, including domestic wastewater and septage.
Comprehensive Services

PBS&J provides comprehensive leachate management services, including:

* Leachate collection system design

5 Reasons Why You Are Not Rich

2011-09-05T12:31:00.001+05:30

5 Reasons Why You Are Not Rich

By SiliconIndia

Friday, September 2, 2011

What makes them so rich and not me? You kept blaming. You kept wondering. And you kept planning. You come up absurd ideas of getting rich over night by buying lottery tickets, or getting a small fortune.

1.You Don't Know What You Want: It's difficult to become rich if you haven't taken the time to know what you want. If you haven't set wealth goals, you aren't likely to attain them. You must decide on your ideal lifestyle. You need to put in that extra effort than just stating "I want to be a millionaire." You need to take the time to set saving and investing goals on a yearly basis and come up with a plan for how to achieve those goals.

2.Whatever Attitude :In order to attain success, you need to have a certain mindset. There is a certain way rich people think, and if you think the way rich people think, then you will become rich by default. Don't spend your time hanging out with people who act irresponsibly with money or who are always whining helplessly about their circumstances, because you'll be tempted to act that way too. Keep yourself occupied with great and positive things in life by focusing on the things you want rather on things you don't want. Remember without enthusiasm the chances of success are remote.

3.You Spend More Than You Earn:You don't have money to pay your bills that clearly explains that you have spent all your income. You take the attitude that if you make enough, the finances will take care of themselves. You spend recklessly and then blame your luck. Its time you change your thoughts and change your habits. Unfortunately, it takes planning to become rich. You can't get rich over night. Change your spending habits, if you have no idea of where you spent your money.

4.You don't grab opportunities:If you dream of getting rich, then you need to look for ways to increase your income. There are plenty of opportunities if you have the will and determination. Don't hesitate to take up a task that will help you earn some extra bucks. And stop competing with your neighbor with materialistic possessions. Instead use that money to build your wealth. Remember every penny counts. Find out how you can use your talent to earn some money.

5.Ignorance and Dependence on others for Finance:You lack that proper financial knowledge. You don't handle your finances and look upon others to take care of your finances. You believe that the other person has more knowledge about money matters, and you rely on them entirely to make financial decisions in your life. Based on their decision you invest your money. At the end of the day even these financial advisors want to make money. It's your money and you know better what you want from it. Make sure you know enough to make your own financial decision.

Bathe together for great sex life

Bathe together for great sex life

Akash Wadhwa | Sep 5, 2011, 12.00AM IST

Wanting to make your sex life rocking? Well, then how about taking a shower together? Yes, you read it right.

Gone are the days when men were shown in movies asking for the towel or bar soaps and then trying to pull their ladies inside the bathroom, all efforts in vain though. Couples seems to have come out of the closet now and entered the bathroom, for a good shower. Couples tell us how taking a shower together can actually help you not only have a good sex but also build intimacy between each other.

"We actually have days fixed for a bubble bath together," excitedly adds Aruna. She further adds, "It is not like every time we bath together we ought to have sex but yes sometimes we do end up having it. But yes, both of us feel that it is the best way to de-stress ourselves. Also, we have this thing that we think of something new to do during that session. It is no doubt a lovely experience."

But trying such a thing for the first time really needs a lot of thinking. "When my boyfriend first proposed to me this idea, I was taken aback. But then we made a deal of just having fun within limits. I was also a bit shy since I was quite conscious of my body stats. But I think this has helped me a lot to bond with my boyfriend. We have opened up quite a lot after the first time we took a shower together. It is fun but only if you trust someone," says Tanushree.

Mehul, a working professional recently got his bathroom renovated with different equipment to add to the excitement. "I now have a mobile shower and got it converted into a steam bathroom as my fiancee sometimes likes me to have sex with her in the bathroom. Although it was her idea, I have started liking it now. We also give each other a sponge bath sometimes which is quite a turn on for her," he shares.

Salman concentrate on Being Human now

2011-09-05T12:06:00.001+05:30

Salman is baffled with the way some people seem to be taking potshots at "Bodyguard". "I've been hearing that people have said they don't like it, it's not that good a film. But it's doing well and that's what counts. I can't understand who these people are.

The critics seem interested in wishing a film bad luck. I just wish everyone's film did well because the lives of so many people depend on each film. People keep asking me about Shah Rukh and all I can say is that I pray that Ra.One is an even bigger hit than my film."Says Salman Khan.

Interestingly, Shah Rukh Khan who had a fallout with Salman in 2008, in a recent interview seemed to return the Bodyguard actor's sentiments. SRK wished Salman speedy recovery and also said that he along with the entire industry will take care of Bodyguard and Salman need not worry about the same.

Probably it is age or his health, but Salman sounded philosophical while talking about his future plans. "I want to concentrate on Being Human now. On December 27, my birthday, we are launching the brand internationally.

The collections can mend lives of many underprivileged kids. That is the kind of work I want to do now. I want to heal people," said the actor. They made it sound like I was never going to return. Main vapas aaonga
