Elixir of Life

EPILOGUE IN MUNDAWAM –”Three things are there in the vessel: Truth, contentment and intellect. The ambrosial Name of God is added to it, The Name that is everybody’s sustenance. He who absorbs and enjoys it Shall be saved. One must not abandon this gift, It should ever remain dear to one’s heart. The dark ocean of the world Can be crossed by clinging to His feet. Nanak, it is He who is everywhere. I can’t measure Your grace; You’ve made me worthy of You. I am full of blemishes; I have no virtue, You have been compassionate. Compassionate You have been and kind, Thus I met the True Guru. Nanak, I live on the Name alone, It pleases my heart and soul.”   

ERASMUS DARWIN –”Organic life beneath the shoreless waves Was born and nurs’d in ocean’s pearly caves; First forms minute, unseen by spherical glass, Move on the mud, or pierce the watery mass; These, as successive generations bloom, New powers acquire and larger limbs assume; Whence countless groups of vegetation spring, And breathing realms of fin and feet and wing.”

ERMA BOMBECK –”You spend a lifetime trying to get them off the ground. You run with them until you are both breathless. They crash. They hit the rooftop. You patch and comfort, adjust and teach. You watch them lifted by the wind and assure them that someday, they will fly. Finally, they are airborne; They need more string and you keep letting it out; But with each twist of the ball of twine, There is a sadness that goes with joy The kite becomes more distant and you know it won’t be long before that beautiful creature will snap the lifeline that binds you two together and will soar, free and alone. Only then do you know that you did your job.”

It may be that they will not add to the beauty of the world, nor to the life of men’s souls. I am not sure. But automobiles have come, and they bring a greater change in our life than most of us suspect. They are here, and almost all outward things are going to be different because of what they bring. They are going to alter war, and they are going to alter peace. I think men’s minds are going to be changed in subtle ways because of automobiles; just how, though, I could hardly guess. But you can’t have the immense outward changes that they will cause without some inward ones, and it may be that… the spiritual alteration will be bad for us. Perhaps, ten or twenty years from now, if we can see the inward change in men by that time, I shouldn’t be able to defend the gasoline engine, but would have to agree… that automobiles had no business to be invented.”

Who then, are you, and what is your magic recipe for walking upon the water without, sinking? The man answered, I am a simple and ignorant man from the south of the river. Having heard that the Buddha was here, I was anxious to gladden myself with his wisdom and virtue. When I arrived at the southern bank, it was not the time when the river was fordable; but I asked the people who were on the bank of the river what was the depth of the water. They replied that the water would reach to my ankle, and that nothing would prevent me from crossing. I added faith to their words, and I have therefore come crossing the river, I have no extraordinary recipe.”

FAIZ AHMED FAIZ –”Someone, finally, is here! No, unhappy heart, no one—just a passerby on his way the night has surrendered to clouds of scattered stars. The lamps in the halls waver. Having listened with longing for steps, the roads too are asleep. A strange dust has buried every footprint. Blow out the lamps, break the glasses, and erase all memory of wine. Heart, bolt forever your sleepless

For example, restaurants use red tablecloths to increase the customers’ appetite. Colours can benefit one but bring destruction to the other.”

The other bird is the other part of the individual soul which retains the characteristics of God, the Supreme Soul. Aware of true Reality, this part of the individual soul remains detached and aloof from entanglements with the partial reality of the temporal, finite world. The two aspects of the single soul are inseparably bonded and in harmony there is no acrimony or conflict between them, but merely watchful expectation from the aspect which is God-within-man.

I said that’s life, and as funny as it may seem Some people get their kicks, Stompin’on a dream But i don’t let it, let it get me down, Cause this fine or world it keeps spinning around I’ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, A poet, a pawn and a king.

Alzheimers Action Plan

Posted on September 7th, 2011, by Home Care Experts

alzheimers action plan

Actively Maturing

Actively Maturing

There is certainly no escaping it: all of us are obtaining senior. In fact, statistics indicate that North Americans are quietly undergoing a grey revolution.
 
No matter whether you yourself are seeking forward to retirement, or are anxious about supporting mature loved kinds remain happier and much healthier longer, the pursuing hints can show you the way to reside a physically, socially and emotionally vibrant existence perfectly to the golden many years.
 
Obtaining Actual
Weakening bones, chronic discomfort, and declining mobility: most likely probably the most striking stereotype of maturing is the gradual drop of actual power. As men and women age there is certainly frequently a feeling of getting betrayed through the system.
 
While coming to conditions with mobility challenges or persistent ailments might be difficult for everyone involved, it does not necessarily mean activity needs to stop. Standard physical task can basically guide handle or improve numerous ailments which includes, type a couple of diabetes, depression and osteoporosis. In fact, a single recent McMaster University research of 70-year-old elderly people who participated in bi-weekly resistance exercising reinforces what the science continues to suggest; regular activity can actually reverse the growing older process.
 
Frequent actual action for elderly adults will not need pricey apparatus, risk or a gruelling plan. Begin by consulting a physician to establish what you or your elderly liked 1 is and seriously isn’t capable of and look at:
 
New means to work action to the morning. From actively dusting, to walking into the grocery shop or raking leaves, workout arrives in several types. Have a shot at incorporating a variety of workouts that concentrate on endurance, flexibility, muscle and balance. For any much more detailed list of physical activities that may well be ideal for you or your mature beloved one visit the Medline In addition internet site.
 
Specialized applications for mature grownups or those with actual problems. Many recreation centres provide fitness classes geared on the way to the particular desires of mature participants (e.g., resistance education to maintain bones strong) and will accommodate those with mobility problems or chronic conditions. Joining a group action isn’t only a terrific way for elderly people to remain connected to other people from the online community it has also been proven to enhance mood. Lend your support and time to an mature relative outside pursuits by offering to act as chauffeur to and from the action.
 
Focusing about the positive. A physical setback can have an effect on far more than the physique it can also drag feelings down, top to annoyance and even a depressive disorder. As being a caregiver of an mature adult, make an effort to emphasize your cherished a single abilities. Your father bad knee, for example, may perhaps make jogging far more challenging, but he might still be able to go swimming regularly (which can also be a great lower impact way to sustain muscle muscle and endurance). Remain realistic though, as overdoing activity can lead to certainly negative penalties.
 
Fostering Human brain Obtain
 
Missing a friend’s birthday, leaving the coffeemaker on all night as well as temporarily forgetting your neighbour’s cell phone number; they are each day occurrences for most folks. But for quite a few elderly grown ups these lapses can bring about tension due to the fact they dread it may be the start on the brain’s downward spiral.
 
Luckily, with some focused attention on flexing grey issue muscles a good deal from the memory and agility loss accepted as component and parcel of aging could be avoided by:
 
Getting occupied. The phrase, use it or lose it, totally applies towards aging brain. Maintain those neurons firing at complete force by getting up a second or third language (or brushing up on an aged one), joining a book club (not only for the reading, but for the mind-boosting discussions as well), carrying out word or number puzzles or almost every other new form of finding out that switches the human brain off of TV-watching cruise control and on to new suggestions, activities or methods of thinking.
 
Staying connected. Exploration exhibits frequent social activity and powerful social ties work as being a sort of anti-aging vaccine by keeping the immune method strong, greatly lowering dementia chance and, as being a Harvard School of Public Well being research suggests, perhaps even helping aged people reside longer. Encourage older relatives to pursue their passions whether painting, ballroom dance or lawn bowling. If cost can be a issue, appear into less-expensive community-based plans or get the family to pitch in to shell out for lessons, classes or things to do as component of the birthday or holiday gift.
 
Pumping physical exercise into the evening. More than the last couple of years the notion of your mind/body connection has been growing in reputation and now the science can be commencing to back again this link. Apart through the body advantages pointed out in the past section, a evaluate of exploration through the American Psychological Association also discovered that physically active mature grownups have been far better at spatial things to do and other cognitive features than sedentary golden-agers. The evaluate also advised that over-65 grownups who frequently exercised 15-30 minutes, 3 times a week cut their chance for creating Alzheimer’s disease, even when genetic history produced them a lot more susceptible to the condition. Aerobic task including jogging or swimming in specific seemed to have the greatest good influence on human brain functionality.
 
Consuming smart. How the brain (and entire body for your subject) features largely is dependent upon what it is fed. Even though a wholesome, well-balanced diet is an excellent starting point; much more and additional food superstars are starting to emerge from your scientific analysis.

Elder Care Books

Posted on September 6th, 2011, by Home Care Experts

elder care books
why would friend offer $6,000 for my car, it is valued at $3,000?

Hi, my 1992 toyota paseo car is only valued at around $3,000.00 in the kelly blue book, but I have it well taken care of, and with $1000 rims, and more with a great soundsystem(including subwoofers). I have always taken care of it, and people always comment on it, young and elder. Thing is, he wants to give me $6,000 for it, that is way too much, and beside, my car is not for sale. Why are some people willing to pay more money for something if it isnt worth that much in value to begin with. I wont sell only because I love my car, Im not money hungry, and its in great condition

Because your friend knows you have taken good care of it. I owned a 1978 Harley FLH(shovelhead) since 1984. I had taken care of it, and it wasn’t for sale. I had another newer bike that I ride regularly. A friend offered me a high price for it. He could have bought a newer bike with the money. I ended up selling his the shovelhead, because I felt bad, because it sat in the garage mostly. If you use your car and know it is dependable, I wouldn’t sell it.You might be able to buy something newer, but you would still have to invest money to get it up to your standards.

Computer History And Methodology By Mansur Boyda? Mensur Boydas

  1. HISTORY OF WHAT     (Fraunfelder)

Five concepts in Fraunfelder:

PONG

In today’s world video games are an essential part of millions’ life and it has a bigger market than films. Bushnell who is an electrical engineer student had several attempts to create games but they were not successful. Then he made a game called “Pong that that is a ping-pong simulator that required nothing more of the player than to twiddle a knob to move an onscreen paddle and hit a ball (Fraudliner, Mark, 2006). The game Pong was the world’s first video game in the early 70′s. This is a modern version of the game. The first screen is where you select how you want to play by moving the joystick: UP and DOWN to select Human vs. Human, Human vs. Computer or Computer vs. Computer. The computer vs. computer game to plays forever or until someone reset the game using the reset switch. You start serving by pressing fire; it is also likely to change direction and speed of the ball using fire. The player who has the serve will get points. If the player with the serve misses the ball, then the serve goes over to the other player. The paddles are moved up and down with the joysticks. It is possible to smash (increase speed) by pressing FIRE, and when doing so it is also possible to guide the ball by moving joystick up or down. When someone wins a game over picture will show and tell who won. Bushnell started a business called Atari and started selling Pong to arcades and bars. He had more luck this time and people love the game. Then in 1974 Atari made a home version of Atari but did not have the money to keep up with their competitors, afterwards Warner Communications bought the company. It is this game that triggered the video games history and personal computers that people wanted to play the game in their computers at home.

Figure 2: Pong in a different set up

NINTENDO GAMEBOY

Nintendo Game Boy is a system of a compact game developed and manufactured by Gumpei Yokoi who works for the company and it is released in 1989. “It is the bestselling video game player ever and 168 million units have been sold since it was introduced (Fraudliner, Mark, 2006). This was another hit in the history of computing and video game industry. People were buying it to play a game called Tetris that is written by Russian Alexey Pazhitnov. Computers were invented in the early 70′s and by the invention of video games computers became more popular because people wanted to play the games at their home without any distraction like workspace. The Nintendo Game Boy had a lot of contribution to the history of video games as it pushed its competitors to invent a more advanced, cooler console, video games and etc. to attract the peoples’ attention to keep themselves in the business. Then in the following years Nintendo advanced its gaming consoles.

WORLD WIDE WEB

The World Wide Web has transformed the computer and communications world like nothing else before. The invention of the telegraph, telephone, radio, and computer set the stage for this unique combination of qualifications. The Internet is at once a world-wide broadcasting capability, a mechanism for information broadcasting, and a medium for cooperation and interface between individuals and their computers without consideration of geographic distance.

These people are the ones who contributed in the development of World Wide Web.

  • 1945: Vannevar Bush

 

  • 1960: J.C.R Licklider

“Man Computer Symbiosis” (Pre-W3C, 2006).

  • 1962: Douglas Englebart

 

  • 1965: Ted Nelson

“Ted Nelson coins the term “Hypertext” in “A File Structure for the Complex, the Changing, and the Indeterminate”. 20th National Conference, New York, Association for Computing Machinery” (Pre-W3C, 2006).

  • 1968: Douglas Englebart


  • 1969: ARPANET

“Advanced Research Projects Agency commissions ARPANET to conduct research on networking. First ARPANET nodes connected” (Pre-W3C, 2006).

  • 1971: Ray Tomlinson

“Ray Tomlinson of BBN creates email program to send messages across a distributed network. 1972: Tomlinson expands program to ARPANET users, using the “@” sign as part of the address” (Pre-W3C, 2006).

  • 1974: Vint Cerf / Bob Kahn

“Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn publish “A Protocol for Packet Network Interconnection”, which specified in detail the design of a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)” (Pre-W3C, 2006).

  • 1978: TCP/IP

“Part of TCP splits off, becoming the Internet Protocol (IP)” (Pre-W3C, 2006).

As you can see it was a quite history to be able to come up with the extraordinary invention of all time that is a part of millions of people around the world. With the invention of the internet users of the computer tremendously increased as it is convenient in a lot of ways and are increasing still. It became the main part of computer, now a computer without the internet is just a machine that computes and functions as a gaming console and a type-writer. It is quite interesting to watch as the history unleashes its chambers to present. All of the parts developing and combining, emerging to create the computer as it happens in Transformers.

GOOGLE

 

The search engine started as a research project by a Phd student student at Stanford in January 1996. ” Today more than 100 million people ask Google, the number one search engine on the world” (Fraudliner, Mark, 2006). Google became the reference of the world to anything from a to z from billions of Web pages in just a matter of seconds. Despite the fact that it’s free, it made a fortune for its founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin. “The company makes money by advertising and by licensing its search technology to corporations” (Fraudliner, Mark, 2006). The Google search engine attracted the growing number of Internet users, who liked its simple design.  Google has begun selling ads related with keyword searhes. The advertisements were text-based to maintain an uncluttered page design and to maximize page loading speed. Google has a lot of features and some of them are earth, video, scholars, groups, g-mail, image search and many more. Google is really the main search engine that assists millions of people around the world every day. It is really interesting to exposure the discourse develops as the picture of technology painted part by part. All of these are a part of computer that is enabling games, videos, connectivity and many other things for the society of earth. Google will become more important as the World Wide Web gets developed. The history showed that the future will be bright as technology develops.

 

 

  1. WHO AND WHERE: ACADEMIA (Markoff)

Doug Engelbert:

He is generally known as the inventor of computer mouse teamed with Bill English. His group and he accomplished many technological establishments and some of them are hypertext, human computer interaction, networked computers and precursors to GUIs.

The figure shows that the very first computer mouse engineered by Engelbert showing the wheels that directly contacts the working surface. According to the historian of Science Therry Bardini believed that Engelbart’s complex personal philosophy that drove all his research endeavors shoved the modern application of the concept  to the philosophy and use of tech. The historian also says that Engelbart was strongly influenced by the principle of linguistic relativity developed by Benjamin Lee Whorf. “Where Whorf reasoned that the sophistication of a language controls the sophistication of the thoughts that can be expressed by a speaker of that language, Engelbart reasoned that the state of our current technology controls our ability to manipulate information, and that fact in turn will control our ability to develop new, improved technologies” (Wikipedia). He was an uncontrollable and different from his group of people. He was dealing with SRI projects. Markoff says that Engelbart and Rosen who is another engineer in the group had met when Engelbart was hired at SRI, and of course he had immediately told Rosen about his dream for building Bush’s Menex information search and retrieval machine.  Rosen was impressed, but he had not thought much about it since. Thereafter the researches took a high road and one day Engelbart wrote some thoughts on a paper and Rosen took it to Pentagon and the man from Pentagon wanted to see him. He was granted the first research by $25,000. Then he made much advancement in the digital technology such as the computer mouse. He visualized and developed many of his user interface ideas back in the mid 60s, long before the personal computer revolution, at a time when people were kept away from computers, and could only use computers through UN armed forces and when software tended to be written for vertical applications in proprietary systems.

 

 

Engelbart later revealed that it was nicknamed the “mouse” because the tail came out the end. In an interview with SRI patented the mouse then for the value of $40,000 Apple had licensed the product.

 

Engelbart is a great contributor in technology of computer and digital world. Markoff says that when was still largely about data processing; Engelbart had put together almost all of the critical components of modern personal computing; hypertext, graphics, multiple windows, efficient navigation and command input, collaborative work, and a mouse pointing device. The list here was collaborated nearly 40 years ago, symbolizes the computer we are using right now. This is pretty interesting journey.

John Mc Carthy:

He is now a Professor Emeritus. John McCarthy’s influence in computer science ranges from the invention of LISP and time-sharing to the coining of the term AI and the founding of the AI laboratory at Stanford University. One of the foremost figures in computer sciences, McCarthy has written papers which are widely referenced and stand as milestones of development over a wide range of topics. In this collection of reviews, McCarthy staunchly defends the importance of Artificial Intelligence research against its attackers; this book gathers McCarthy’s reviews of books which discuss and criticize the future of AI. Here, McCarthy explores the larger questions associated with AI, such as the question of the nature of intelligence, of the acquisition and application of knowledge, and the question of the politics behind this research. He is the founder of AI which led to many achievements in the significant technological advancements.

  1. WHO AND WHERE: THE COUNTERCULTURE (Turner)

Stewart brand:

The Catalog hunted to “catalyze the emergence of a realm of personal power” by making soft technology available to people eager to create sustainable communities. Brand went on to found a number of do-good organizations, including the WELL or Whole Earth Electronic Link (an early online community); the Global Business Network (a futurist consulting firm); and the Long Now Foundation (dedicated to encouraging long-term thinking). He is the author of several books and many articles, ranging in focus from the psychedelic rituals of Native Americans to a systems analysis of “buildings in time.” Today, he and his wife live on a tugboat in Sausalito, CA. Turner notes that for Ehrlich and Holm, and the young Stewart Brand, cultural activities such as politics, art, conversation, and play took on a deep significance for the survival of the species. When humans threatened to destroy themselves with Nuclear weapons, concrete expressions of culture offered a way to help them to move forward and escape total destruction. They played a big role in keeping the world as a safe place and I call them peace keepers. Turner also notes that his search for individual liberty guided to a decade- long migration among a wide variety of bohemian, scientific and academic communities.

“When his Whole Earth Catalog became a forum in which such communities met, Brand began to see how the systems orientation of Paul Ehrlich’s population biology, combined with new, countercultural models of living, might offer an appealing individualistic lifestyle, not only for him, but also for anyone else who could abandon the halls of bureaucratic America.   Stewart Brand is here with Army-length hair in 1961.

The central theme of the book is that several fields of contemporary science and philosophy point in the same direction: intelligence is not organized in a centralized structure but much more like a bee-hive of small simple components. Kelly applies this view to bureaucratic organizations, intelligent computers, and to the human brain.”Kevin outlines eight “generative”: authenticity, accessibility, immediacy, interpretation, personalization, patronage, embodiment, findability. (I’ve reordered them as I find “aaiippef” makes it a bit easier to remember them all.) He defines a “generative” as “a quality or attribute that must be generated, grown, cultivated, and nurtured. It cannot be copied, cloned, faked, replicated, counterfeited, or reproduced” (George, 2005). This list is an excellent starting point for economic models in the digital world. These eight things cannot be copied. These are the things that people will be willing to pay for. These are the things that can be made to be more valuable through leveraging the abundance of imitable goods. Kevin notes that “more importantly, I think, the types of economic models derived from this thinking allow us to take advantage of the abundance of digital information rather than fearing it. This sort of thinking allows us to view digital technology as a blessing rather than a curse”. Nowadays, he is Chairman of the Board of  a non-profit organization aimed at cataloging and identifying every living species on earth. His contribution to technology called the third culture. Back then the advancements in the Science was disregarded, but the culture was knows as music, literature and etc. Even though the developments help to strengthen the culture it was regarded and was not cool at all. Then the third culture appeared. Kevin’s new third culture is a brood of science. It’s a pop culture based in technology, for the good of technology. In the last two decades, as technology hyper flooded our cultural environment, the gravity of technology simply became too hard to disregard. For this current generation of Nintendo kids, their technology is their culture. When they reached the point of creating the current trends, the next witty thing happened Scientists became cool.

Geriatric Dog Care: Special Needs for Your Senior Dog

Like older humans, older dogs are very susceptible to a wide range of health conditions.  This is a primary reason you need to take special care of your senior dog.  There are a few things you should know.  Read on for a number of important tips on geriatric dog care.

As your senior dog ages, it is vital that you take him to the vet for exams on a regular basis.  It is best that you take him every six months instead of only once a year.  This will help catch any diseases early before they have a chance to progress.  Conditions such as osteoarthritis and organ failure are common problems.

Proper exercise is also an important part of geriatric dog care.  It can be harder for older dogs to move around as well as they used to.  If they do not get the proper exercise they need, their muscles may start to degenerate.  Obesity can also become a problem.  That is why you need to ensure your senior dog gets plenty of exercise.

It is also a good idea to provide your senior dog with an orthopedic foam bed.  These beds help distribute your dog’s weight evenly.  This has the effect of reducing pressure on his joints.  Reduced pressure is essential for preventing arthritis.

Another important part of geriatric dog care involves taking proper care of your dog’s senses.  His senses like sight and smell will deteriorate over time.  You can help prevent his senses from becoming dull by keeping your dog active.

Your dog’s kidneys are particularly prone to wearing out over time.  This can lead to hormonal imbalances.  It is common for senior dogs to start having bathroom accidents around this time.  These accidents are often not their fault.  Rather they are due to various medical conditions such as diabetes or kidney failure.

Senior dogs need a different diet than their younger counterparts.  It is best for you to buy specially-formulated foods designed to help meet these requirements.  This will help prevent the onset of various health conditions.

As your senior dog ages, you need to keep an eye on his behavior so you can notice any changes early.  There are a range of health conditions which your dog will become prone to as he ages.  You will want to schedule vet visits every six months so you can catch any conditions as early as possible.  It is also best to provide your older dog with an orthopedic foam bed to help protect his joints and prevent arthritis.  Taking the best care of your older dog is not all that difficult.  Just start with these important tips and follow the direction of your veterinarian.
