The Fabulous Friday Funnies
A woman and her little girl were visiting the grave of the little girl's grandmother. On their way through the cemetery back to the car, the little girl asked, "Mommy, do they ever bury two people in the same grave?"
"Of course not, dear." replied the mother, "Why would you think that?"
"The tombstone back there said, 'Here lies a lawyer and an honest man.'" Continue reading The Fabulous Friday Funnies

A primary school teacher was delivering a station wagon full of kids home one day when a fire truck zoomed past.
Sitting in the front seat of the fire truck was a Dalmatian dog. The children fell to debating the dog's duties. "They use him to keep crowds back," said one youngster. "No,"
said another, "he's just for good luck." A third child brought the argument to a close. "They use the dogs," she said firmly, "to find the fire hydrant."

So what have we learned in 2,063 years?
"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." – Cicero – 55 BC
Evidently nothing…

I called the local newspaper's classified section to complain about an ad I'd placed.
It was obvious the person who took my information had never spent any time on a farm.
"I said 'ewes,'" I argued.
"Pardon?" replied the operator.
"Ewes. It makes a difference to some people."
The ad that was placed read: "Sheep for sale – USED."
Thanks very much for the ongoing humour. I take them to read to my 82 year old mother in the nursing home to cheer her up. She has been a source of a few stories in the past and I have now one more to add.
My mother was having a dream and was yelling out loud "
mother where are you" The women in the next bed to her in the nursing home answered in her sleep " I am here"
The nurse came in hearing voices and asked what's the matter? Where's my mother she asked, I just heard her call out to me?
A father and son went fishing one day. After a couple hours in the boat, the boy suddenly became curious about the world around him.
He asked his father, "How does this boat float?"
The father thought for a moment, then replied, "Don't rightly know, son."
The boy returned to his contemplation, then turned back to his father, "How do fish breathe underwater?"
Once again the father replied, "Don't rightly know, son."
A little later the boy asked his father, "Why is the sky blue?"
Again, the father replied. "Don't rightly know, son."
Worried he was going to annoy his father, he says, "Dad, do you mind my asking you all of these questions?"
"Of course not, son. If you don't ask questions, you'll never learn anything!"

A guy was driving around Dublin when he saw a sign in front of a house,
'Talking Dog for Sale.'
He rang the bell and the owner told him the dog was in the backyard. The guy went into the backyard and saw a Labrador sitting there..' You talk?' he asked.'Yes,' the Lab replied. 'So, what's the story?'
The Lab looked up and said, 'Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I told the Police about my gift, and in no time at all they had me jetting from country to country, sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders, because no one figured a dog would be eavesdropping.
I was one of their most valuable spies for eight years running.' 'But the jetting around really tired me out, and I knew I wasn't getting any younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for a job at the airport to do some undercover security wandering near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings and was awarded a batch of medals. I got married, had a load of puppies, and now I'm just retired.'
The guy was amazed. He goes back in and asked the owner what he wanted for the dog. 'Ten euros.' the man said. 'Ten euros? This dog is amazing. Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?'
'Because he's a liar. He never did any of that rubbish.'

A man owned a small farm in Aberdeenshire. The Department of wages claimed he was not paying proper wages to his staff and sent a representative out to interview him. 'I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them,'
demanded the rep.
'Well,' replied the farmer, 'there's my farm hand who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him £200 a week plus free room and board. The cook/housekeeper has been here for 18 months, and I pay her £150 per week plus free room and board .
Then there's the half-wit. He works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here. He makes about £10 per week, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of whisky every Saturday night. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally.' 'That's the guy I want to talk to…the half-wit,' says the agent. 'That would be me,' replied the farmer…
My wife was fascinated by the elegant calligraphy on the hand-written menu in a Chinese restaurant. She took it home and spent months knitting a sweater with Chinese characters down the front. She was wearing it at a cocktail party when a Chinese physician asked where she got the symbols. "From a menu," she admitted.
"Do you know what they say?"
"I'm afraid to ask," my wife said, "but tell me anyway."
"Cheap, but good." — Mike Goodell, Apopka, Fla.

A minute later, I got this reply, "Mine must be dephective."

My mother taught for 11 years at a day-care center. One winter afternoon she was trying to show a young boy how to zip up his coat. "The secret," Mom said, "is to get this piece of the zipper to fit in the other side before you try to zip it up."
After struggling with the zipper for several minutes, the boy sighed and said, "Why does it have to be a secret?" — Elizabeth C. Boulter

A little guy is sitting at the bar just staring at his drink when a large, trouble-making bikie steps up next to him, grabs his drink,gulps it down in one swig and then turns to him with a menacing stare as if to say
'Well, – whatcha gonna do about it?'

When the decision is finally made to move from offline to online applications, there are plenty of things to think about for your awards program or contest. Here are three helpful tips that will make your transition to a new system a success.
It has been noted before that most nominators love the switch from offline to online applications. However, nominators, as well as judges, still will need some time to get used to the new process. Help them out by posting answers to frequently asked questions on your website. These people will appreciate the ease of online applications once they get a chance to become familiar using it.
When it comes to handling offline contests, we know that you've got every little detail down after years of experience. When moving online, it can be tempting to keep your process exactly the same. Instead, aim for being as efficient as possible. You may have to tweak how you do some things, but in the end online applications allow you to do much more with gathering data, reporting, tracking and decision making!
When the process of moving online is all said and done, remember that you are still running the same awards program or contest you always have. As I've said, you may have to tweak a few things, but you still have the knowledge of what does and doesn't work. Continue to use your best instincts, and success will eventually come from all your hard work.


Catch up with the latest EPA wastewater regulations, and learn how Hubbard-Hall can help you.
The recent trend in wastewater treatment initiatives is hard to ignore. Joining many other concerned towns and watershed districts, North Carolina is placing stricter discharge limits on phosphates and other nutrients into public treatment facilities. Over the next 2 years North Carolina will enforce the EPA Nutrient Management Plan in two watersheds, the Jordan Lake and Falls Lake. How does this affect you?
To begin with, the EPA has stated that North Carolina, along with several other states in the south, needs to have a Nutrient Management Plan in place. This is a commitment from the state to address nutrient enrichment in surface waters by formalizing a strategy to adopt measurable nutrient criteria and prioritize the major bodies of water in the state. The main two nutrients of concern currently have been established as nitrogen and phosphorus. With finalization not being until 2018 you may ask, "Why worry now?" The reason is simple. With the municipalities being tasked to lower their discharge of nutrients, they will push this back on industries who have discharge permits. Industries who are our customers. There will be a review of discharge permits, and a lowering of the discharge limits of nitrogen and phosphates.
We understand how important it is for our customers to keep up to date with all industry regulations. This is why our Aquapure technical experts are continuously updating our customers on EPA regulation changes, and helping them avoid wastewater treatment upsets and surcharges. For the regulation changes in the article above, we have had great success with our Aquapure ICM in helping lower phosphates.

Can someone please tell me how I could add some ASP Code into a href in FCK. For instance when I wish to add a link I need the URL to be dynamic depending on certain circumstances. When I type <%= LinkVariable %> into the URL textbox the code is changed to HTML Unicode. How can I get round this?
I've even tried adding <% Response.Write("Hello World") %> to the source of my textbox content but this doesn't work either.
On the other hand, if the escaped code was saved in a database and was then coming from a (server-side) database and being written to the page, I would think it would render the ASP code correctly. I'd have to try it to be sure, but I wonder if you were careful to get the code sequence correct, would it still work?
If you are using the HTML output directly from the editor and "pasting" it onto a page, then I would add just the < and > replace functions as an intermediate processing step in the POST event.

Rare Replay reveals the Kameo 2 we never got
Plus: get a glimpse of canned kart racer Fast and the Furriest.
Updated on 5 August 2015
Never-released Rare games such as Kameo 2 are finally getting time to shine via documentaries included as part of the just-released Rare Replay compilation.
Kameo, mark two.
A number of canned projects are detailed in the package, although the documentary clips require owners to complete various games in order to unlock them.
Thankfully, the documentaries are now starting to appear on YouTube. The first, a look at Kameo 2, lies below.
Originally due for release back on Xbox 360, Kameo 2 would have been set in a far darker version of the original game's world. Kameo herself would have been remodeled as a result, as early production art shows.
Familiar faces and enemies would also have changed, such as trolls being upgraded with Industrial Revolution-era technology.
A second documentary looks at Fast and the Furriest, a canned Xbox 360 racer that would have starred Rare characters such as Sabre Wulf, Joanna Dark, Banjo and Rash from Battletoads.
Race tracks could be destructed and rebuilt during races. Vehicles would also be fully customisable, such as in the more recent Mario Karts.
Finally, another documentary takes a look at the never-developed survival horror concept named Sundown.
None of these titles were taken forward by Microsoft, although the documentaries do not go into why. Take a look at both below:

After years of moving back and forth between her home country of Sierra Leone in West Africa and London, Sonia Hariri and her family immigrated to Washington State when civil war ripped through Sierra Leone in 1997.
As a child, Sonia loved "playing nurse" and emulating her aunt, who worked at a United Nations relief clinic. Her aunt isn't the only one in the family with a healthcare background: Two of her brothers likewise completed the LWTC nursing program and work in the field, her father and several other siblings are doctors, and three of her aunts are midwife/nurses. "I do have family members who want nothing to do with the medical field, but I was always drawn to it," Sonia says.
These days, Sonia is finishing up her fourth and final quarter in the Lake Washington Technical College Licensed Practical Nursing Program. She plans to continue on to earn a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing and eventually, a master's degree in the field to become a nurse practitioner. She already holds a community college associate's degree in arts and sciences. "I would love to go into maternity nursing, labor and delivery, mother and baby, neonatal unit. It's life," she tells NursingSchools.com.
A member of LWTC's Licensed Practical Nursing Club, she served as secretary. As a student at Shoreline Community College (also in Washington State), Sonia served as vice president of the Pan-African Student Association. She also took an active role in the school's Muslim Association, serving as secretary and as the leader of the group's publicity committee, which embarked on outreach to students and the community to break down stereotypes about Muslims.
I grew up wanting to be a nurse; I didn't know anything else that I wanted to do. It's because of my nature; I'm very people-centered. I was also informed about healthcare, with so many family members in the field. I grew up around clinics, on "take your child to school day", I was always in the clinic.
I was always seeing people taking care of people, as well as in my big family. As the oldest daughter, I sort of took a more nurturing role, taking care of the younger siblings, and more responsibilities as I matured.
Growing up with wars, there were so many traumatic events around us, and the medical guilds were so needed. My family is half Lebanese, half Sierra Leonean, and we are Muslim…we were refugees.
What do you like and dislike about your nursing education so far?
I like my instructors, they are very progressive, with solid backgrounds and experience in the field. My clinical experiences were also very good. I find daily challenges in the field of nursing. There's so much to learn. The intervention I make to save a life or maintain a patient's well being, can feel overwhelming at times. Fortunately, my LWTC lecture and clinical instructors work hard to make my learning come easier and lessen my fears.
What I hate so far is there are a lot of qualified nursing school participants, but there are not enough schools for them. It's so hard to get in to nursing school, because there are not enough nursing programs running.
Describe the 'hands-on' phases of your nursing education.
My clinical experiences were very good. The thing I loved most about it was it was quick thinking; you go to clinical every day, and you have to be at the top of your game every day. I was in a situation where 98% of my patients were males, and I'm not used to dealing with that, but I overcame.
I do have family members who want nothing to do with the medical field, but I was always drawn to it. If you look at caring for people as something that you are good at, and you don't see yourself doing anything else but that, then you have the aptitude.
You have to see what area in nursing you want to be in, and the schools in your region. I thought about school reputation, and I made sure to ask about clinical rotations and the instructor mix.
It's so hard to get into any program, period, because of the competition. It's crazy. Nursing school is filled with students with competitive grades, competitive people. You have a class of high achievers. Make sure you get the best grades possible, and try to get some experience in the field, because having a little bit of healthcare background could make the difference in getting accepted.
It's a field where you have to love it to go into it. You see all of these patients and you have so much stress, so you had better love it. People drop off of the program because it's not what they expected. .
In retrospect, what do you know now, that you wish you knew before you began to pursue your nursing education?
There are so many routes to go into nursing. The pre-requisites are different for every school; keep a wide variety of options for yourself and make sure you are a well-rounded student.
Tell us about your nursing career choice. What area of nursing do you plan to go into?
I would love to go into maternity nursing, labor and delivery, mother and baby, neonatal unit. It's life. I intend to further my education further. Perhaps go to school to become a certified midwife. After I graduate with LPN, I'll have one more year for registered nurse schooling.
What steps are you taking as a student to launch your nursing career?
I'm fixing my resume now, I network. I went to a mother & baby clinical, and I would love to work in medical surgical floor for the experiences.
My dream job would be two of them. First I would love to work as a practitioner assessing newborns, work with pediatrics; or I would love to be a midwife, to find a way to deliver babies in a clinical setting, working with practitioners or doctors, co-own my own practice.
If you are passionate, even when things get tough, it drives you on.
What are the hottest nursing specialties expected to be through 2010?
Anesthesiology, IV nurse, wound care nurse and other specialized nursing areas.
What are some nursing or healthcare trends which could help potential nursing students plan for the future?
Because of my interest in working in the maternity unit, I've found it's really hard to get into that field because many women want to work in maternity/neonatal – there's a higher demand for those jobs… I think it's the joy of the baby.

Waste management: Project Opportunities in Maharashtra
Waste utilization, recycling and reuse plays a major role in limiting resource consumption and the environmental impact of waste. Recycling is an integral part of any waste management system as it represents a key utilization alternative to reuse and energy recovery (Waste-to-Energy). Which option is ultimately chosen depends on the quality, purity and the market situation. Hazardous waste management is a new concept for most of the Asian countries including India. The lack of technical and financial resources and the regulatory control for the management of hazardous wastes in the past had led to the unscientific disposal of hazardous wastes in India, which posed serious risks to human, animal and plant life.
There are 250 urban local bodies (ULBs) in Maharashtra which comprises 23 Municipal Corporations, 220 Municipal Councils, 3 Cantonment Boards and 4 Nagar Pachayats. Per capita MSW generation in various towns of the state ranges 100 to 600 gram per day. For class I cities in Maharashtra, the waste generation rates are in the range of 14 to 63 kg per capita per day, which includes Mumbai having the highest range of 0.63 kg per capita per day (pcpd). The average waste generation rate for the state is estimated as 35 kg pcpd. As per the projection, the waste quantities are estimated to increase from 6.18 million tons per year in the year 2004 to 8.05 million tons per year in 2011 and 11.77 million tons per year in 2021. In total over 21632.3 tons per day (TPD) of MSW is generated of which around 50% is generated in Mumbai (8500 TPD), Thane (680 TPD), Pune (1740 TPD) and Kalyan (1050 TPD). Compare to other Metropolitan cities in India, MSW generation is highest in Mumbai. Available data indicates that Waste generated in Maharashtra contains about 55% of Non-biodegradable and 45% biodegradable components.
National policy on waste management is set out in the October 1998 policy statement on waste management - Changing our Ways. It outlines the Government's policy objectives in relation to waste management, and suggests some key issues and considerations that must be addressed to achieve these objectives. The policy is firmly grounded in an internationally recognised hierarchy of options, namely prevention, minimisation, reuse/recycling, and the environmentally sustainable disposal of waste which cannot be prevented or recovered.

Automated Vehicle Scrapping and Recycling Unit
Vehicle recycling is the deconstruction of cars for spare parts. When vehicles reach the end of their useful lives, they have value as a source of replacement components, which has given rise to the car dismantling industry. Wrecking yards, auto dismantling yards, automotive spare parts suppliers, and, more recently, auto or vehicle recycling are all phrases that have been used to characterise the industry's business outlets. Vehicle recycling has long been a component of the process, but manufacturers have become increasingly active in recent years. A car crusher is commonly used to reduce the size of a junk car so that it can be transferred to a steel mill. The "Voluntary Car-Fleet Modernization Program," also known as India's vehicle scrapping programme, intends to usher in a new era of what it means to own and use a car in India. Nitin Gadkari, the Minister of Road Transport and Highways, introduced it in Parliament in March. The programme demands that all automobiles above a certain age be taken off the road in order to achieve higher pollution control and safety, which new vehicles provide. A commercial vehicle over 15 years old or a personal vehicle over 20 years old that fails an automatic fitness test, regardless of whether it runs on diesel or gasoline, is earmarked for scrapping. As a result, automobile recycling is essential. It's also crucial to handle them properly to avoid hazardous waste from being released into the environment. Such vehicles must be disposed of by professionals who are familiar with hazardous chemicals such as fuel, coolants, and brake fluids. Environmental Benefits: Steel is one of the most significant materials in the automobile's construction; it's utilised to make the bulk of the components, including the framework. Because iron ores are required for the production of steel, recycling automobiles contributes to the preservation of iron ores. All waste generated as a by-product of steel processing is avoided as well, guaranteeing that air pollution is not increased. Wildlife Preservation: It's also worth mentioning that proper car recycling can help preserve local flora and fauna. Steel mining is bad for the environment because it produces soil erosion and degradation, which means animals can't keep up with their normal habits and may become unwell as a result. Land erosion causes sediment flow into bodies of water, which has an impact on water quality and wildlife proliferation.

Growing Demand of Animal Feed (Cattle, Poultry Broiler, Pig & Fish Feed)
Animal feed is the food that is supplied to domestic animals, especially livestock, while they are being cared for. The two most prevalent categories are fodder and forage. Feed is commonly referred to as fodder when the word feed is used alone. Animal feed is an important aspect of the animal agricultural process, and it is usually the most expensive part. Farms typically try to save money by growing their own food, grazing their animals, or supplementing expensive feeds with less expensive alternatives, such as food waste from beer production. Feed that delivers a well-balanced diet is critical to animal health. Some modern agricultural practises, such as grain-feeding cows or keeping them in feedlots, are harmful to both the environment and the animals. Increased maize or other grain in cow diets, for example, leads their microbiomes to become more acidic, impairing their immune systems and making cows more likely E.coli vectors. Other feeding practises, on the other hand, may be beneficial to animals. For example, feeding cows particular types of seaweed reduces methane generation, cutting greenhouse gas emissions from the meat industry. The animal feed business is predicted to grow at a CAGR of 4.90 percent from US$345.434 billion in 2020 to US$460.322 billion in 2026. Animal feeds are products that are used to improve the health of animals. Different doses of feed are given depending on the animal. Rapid urbanisation and increased meat and other end-product consumption, such as milk and eggs, in various places will fuel the animal feed market development potential over the forecast period. The feed aids in the expansion of the animal's capacities, accelerating growth and weight gain, and enhancing immunity by giving enriched nutrients with the feedstuff. Few Indian Major Players 1.

Opportunities in Production of Solar Inverter (100 KVA – 1000 KVA)
The variable direct current (DC) output of a photovoltaic (PV) solar panel is converted into a utility frequency alternating current (AC) that can be supplied into a commercial electrical grid or used by a local, off-grid electrical network by a solar inverter, also known as a PV inverter. It is a critical balance of system (BOS) component in a photovoltaic system that facilitates the use of normal AC-powered equipment. Solar power converters have developed features such as maximum power point tracking and anti-islanding prevention for usage with photovoltaic arrays. Advanced solar pumping inverters convert DC voltage from solar panels to AC voltage, allowing submersible pumps to run without the usage of batteries or other energy storage devices. MPPT (maximum power point tracking) is used by solar pumping inverters to monitor output frequency and control the speed of the pumps, preventing damage to the pump motor. Many ports for DC current supplied by PV arrays, one port for AC voltage output, and a third port for input from a water-level sensor are common on solar pumping inverters. The market for solar PV inverters is expected to develop at an annual pace of more than 8%. Reduced electricity consumption and declining economic growth have also had a negative impact on the industry. When global market activity resumes, however, demand for the industry grows at a faster rate. Factors such as decreasing inverter prices and an increase in solar PV installations are projected to boost market growth. The growth of the solar PV inverters market has been aided by technological advancements that have led in cheaper costs and improved efficiency in solar panel manufacturing. However, a lack of general understanding, infrastructure construction costs, and recent subsidy reductions on solar panels by governments in the Asia-Pacific region have all stifled market expansion.

Azodicarbonamide Using Urea & Hydrazine Hydrate
Azolodicarbonamide, commonly known as ADCA, ADA, or azo(bis)formamide, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C2H4O2N4. It's a crystalline powder that ranges in colour from yellow to orange-red and has no odour. It's also referred to as a "yoga mat" chemical because of its widespread use in foamed polymers. Biurea is produced in two stages by treating urea with hydrazine. Azoldicarbonamide is most typically employed as a blowing agent in the production of foamed polymers. During the thermal breakdown of azodicarbonamide, nitrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and ammonia gases are formed, and they are trapped in the polymer as bubbles to form a foamed product. Doughs created with ADA-treated flours are more cohesive and dryer than doughs made with chlorine dioxide. These dried doughs are more resistant to absorption, retain more gas, and have better machining properties. Bread baked with ADA-treated flour has a higher loaf volume, a better grain texture, and a better exterior look. Azolodicarbonamide had no influence on the onset of rancidity in flour. Natural or supplemented vitamins are unaffected by Azoldicarbonamide. The global azodicarbonamide market is expected to grow over the forecast period due to rising demand for high-quality plastic and rubber parts for everyday use. It is used in the chemical industry for a variety of purposes, including strengthening, softening, and imparting flexibility to the substance with which it is mixed. It's commonly utilised in the production of foam-based plastics including toys, sports shoes, shoe soles, and floor mats. Azodicarbonamide is a crystalline powder that has a yellow to orange red colour, is odourless, and has a yellow to orange red colour. It's used as a foaming agent, a blowing agent, and a food additive, among other things. Yoga mats, for example, are generally made of rubber and plastic. Bakers utilise it as a commercial whitening conditioner for bread dough as a result. It's used as a blowing agent in plastics, synthetic leather, and other industries. The reaction temperature of pure azodicarbonamide is usually around 200 °C. When used for plastics, leather, and other applications, it has additives that intensify the reaction or allow it to react at lower temperatures. As a food ingredient, it's utilised as a flour bleaching agent and a dough conditioner. As an oxidising agent, it reacts with damp flour. Two further reaction products are semicarbazide and ethyl carbamate. Few Indian Major Players 1.	Demaco Polymers Ltd. 2.	H P L Additives Ltd. 3.	Haryana Polymers Ltd.

Production of Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Multilayer
Nearly a century ago, the PCB, or Printed Circuit Board, was conceived as a method to avoid these intricate wirings. Electric components on the PCB are connected via copper rails constructed by hand or designed in the computer using various methods. It also provides mechanical support and layer isolation for the components. Between two or more etched and laminated copper sheets on the PCB, a non-conductive substrate serves as an isolation layer. The most popular types of PCBs are single-layer, double-layer, and multi-layer. Any electronic or electrical device's foundation is the printed circuit board (PCB). A PCB connects electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, coils, pots, diodes, FETs, transistors, ICs, and transformers to make a complete electronic circuit. Electrical equipment in today's world would be impossible to imagine without a PCB. PCBs help to reduce the size and efficiency of electronic equipment by providing connectivity between electronic components. Printed circuit boards are divided into two categories: single layer PCBs and multi-layer PCBs. To mechanically support and electrically link electrical or electronic components, a printed circuit board (PCB) uses conductive rails, pads, and other features etched from one or more sheet layers of copper bonded onto and/or between sheet layers of a non-conductive substrate. To link components electrically and mechanically, they are frequently soldered to the PCB. The Printed Circuit Board market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.3 percent from 2021 to 2026, reaching $72.3 billion. Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are the foundation of almost all modern electronic devices. Transistors, resistors, PLCs, electrolytic capacitors, and integrated circuits are all connected by printed paths on PCBs. The PCB is used in automotive applications such as power relays, antilock brake systems, digital displays, audio systems, engine timing systems, battery control systems, and more. Printed circuit boards are used in a variety of ways in the automotive industry, and they have changed the way people drive. The need for PCBs is increasing as more vehicle owners and drivers seek extra accessories. A automobile or truck's printed circuit board must be highly sturdy and reliable.

Drinking Water with Packaging in Aluminium Beverage Cans (Mineral, Carbonated, Alkaline)
Water, which is a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen, is a priceless natural gift that is essential for the survival of both humans and animals. Contaminants should not be present in water that is used for drinking. Untreated water from wells, boreholes, and springs is frequently filthy and dangerous to drink. Purifying water and making it available in sanitary conditions for human use is thus both desirable and necessary. Drinking water is defined as water that is safe to drink or use for food preparation. Depending on physical activity, age, health-related illnesses, and environmental factors, the amount of drinking water required to keep healthy varies. In affluent countries, even though only a small portion of tap water is consumed or used in food preparation, it usually fulfils drinking water quality criteria. Laundry, toilets, and irrigation are other typical uses. The World Health Organization considers safe drinking water to be a basic human right. Mineral water is water that contains salts and sulphur compounds, among other minerals, and comes from a mineral spring. Depending on whether or not extra gases are present, mineral water is usually either still or sparkling (carbonated/effervescent). Mineral waters were traditionally utilised or sipped at spas, baths, or wells near their spring sources, a practise known as "taking the waters" or "taking the remedies." Carbonated water (also known as sparkling water, fizzy water, club soda, and water with gas) is water that contains dissolved carbon dioxide gas, either naturally or artificially pumped under pressure. Carbonation causes little bubbles to form, giving the water an effervescent appearance. Natural mineral water, club soda, and sparkling water from a bottle are all popular choices. Minerals like potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium citrate, and potassium sulphate are added to club soda and sparkling mineral water, as well as a variety of other sparkling beverages. From 2021 to 2028, the global bottled water market is expected to increase at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.1 percent. Portability, ease of use and installation, and minimal maintenance costs will be key factors propelling the market in the coming years. Furthermore, rising consumer awareness of the health benefits of consuming bottled water is likely to drive market growth throughout the forecast period. Still and sparkling water, both plain and flavoured, have become extremely popular beverages on a global scale in recent years. This is a new megatrend that will likely gain traction in the next years. As people become more cognizant of their health, they are opting for packaged water and minimising their intake of sugary drinks. Still, bottled water usage has risen in food establishments and restaurants, fueling industry growth. Few Indian Major Players 1.	Aradhana Snack Foods Co. Pvt. Ltd. 2.	Bhagyalaxmi Mineral Water Pvt.

Growing Demand of Rice Husk based Biodegradable Cutlery
People around the world have been early adopters of biodegradable cutlery, which has emerged as a preferable alternative to plastics. Plant biomass resources such as bagasse, rice husk, coconut coir, and others are being used to create environmentally friendly cutlery, tableware, and packaging products that are predicted to gain popularity in the coming decade. Rice husk is a surprising robust substance that can withstand a lot of wear and is long-lasting. Rice husk cutlery is one of the most durable biodegradable silverware options, withstanding temperatures of over 100 degrees Celsius without injury. The finish on this reusable tableware is smooth and shiny, and it's made entirely of natural wax. Knives, forks, chip forks, coffee stirrers, spoons, and teaspoons are all part of the Biodegradable Silverware collection of biodegradable silverware. The items, which come from well-known brands like Plastico and Vegware, are all food-grade and constructed of renewable resources. Biodegradable cutlery is made from a range of natural materials that are completely compostable and biodegradable, such as sugarcane bagasse, bamboo, paper pulp, palm leaves, agricultural waste, and other disposable materials (cornstarch-based PLA plastic is also a sustainable alternative but is not capable of breaking down on its own in normal conditions). •	100 percent environmentally friendly: Rice husk is a green and healthy alternative to disposable plastic cutlery because it is made from industrial waste and is biodegradable. •	Fairly Durable and Reusable: Depending on temperature and upkeep, rice husk cutlery can last up to three years. As a result, these flatware pieces are ideal for parties, quick-service restaurants, and restaurants. •	Heat and Cold Resistant: Rice husk cutlery does not melt when exposed to intense heat, unlike plastic silverware. This means they'll last longer than the disposable plastic ones. You can even warm them up in the microwave! •	Perfect for Picnics, Travel, and Work: People can now enjoy their food without feeling guilty about using disposable flatware, which is perfect for picnics, travel, and work. Biodegradable cutlery has inspired a groundswell of interest among people all over the world due to compelling environmental concerns. To that end, biodegradable utensils are gaining popularity due to their increased durability over plastic cutlery, as well as the enormous environmental friendliness of biodegradable materials. Biodegradable cutlery constructed of plant-based materials, as well as biodegradable bio-plastics, have sparked widespread interest. Several countries have made concerted attempts over the years to promote awareness about the disposability of a variety of biodegradable cutlery items. In addition, the biodegradable cutlery industry has improved in terms of teaching end users on suitable processes and limits. The most popular materials used in eco-friendly cutlery are corn, areca leaves, bagasse, and rice husk. Over time, the remains of fast-growing trees have been employed. The global biodegradable cutlery market was worth USD 33.9 million in 2018, and it is predicted to grow at a 5.9% CAGR between 2019 and 2025. Market growth is expected to be boosted by rising public awareness of the detrimental impacts of non-biodegradable garbage. Non-biodegradable plastic has been outlawed by the government, with strict controls in place. Growth is likely to be fueled by government efforts that promote the business, as well as growing consumer awareness of the harmful implications of non-biodegradables.

Residential apartments are a type of housing with a lot of room for expansion. The name "house" is a little misleading. The meaning of the word "same" has evolved over time and between countries. The Indian census of 1981 used the following definition. Distinct classes of individuals have different housing needs, which are dictated by the individual's financial and social standing. A affluent family, for example, may desire a magnificent structure, whilst a poor family may be content with a single room residence. A typical residential bungalow building has a drawing room, dining room, office, guest room, kitchen, store, pantry, dressing room, bathroom, front verandah, and stairs, among other features. Depending on the demands of many available, the number of rooms in other residences can be lowered. Flat Essentials – -	24-Hour Security – All security-related services should be provided to make life in a residential apartment safe. -	Multi-level Parking - This decreases the amount of space needed in the park to park cars and other vehicles. -	Central air conditioning - Depending on the project area's environment and weather, this may be available. The residential complexes, which are built on large lands and have a well-developed infrastructure to enhance living style, include power backup, the latest firefighting devices, auto door elevators, freight lifts, Earthquake resistant building, 24-hour water supply, and auto elevators. Suburbs have sprung up in recent years as a result of the city's growing population, housing shortages, and overcrowding. To alleviate the housing issue and provide a greater standard of living for all members of society, residential zones are now being developed. Residents who live in apartments have the feeling of living in the country while yet having access to all of the city's amenities. One of the key advantages of investing in these projects over investing in the city is the cheap cost of entry. The majority of projects are being constructed outside of the city centre, giving the developer a land cost advantage. These are considered a low-risk investment with a larger upside potential due to their diversification and low entry cost. Few Indian Major Players 1.	A S V Constructions Pvt. Ltd. 2.

Production Business of Ethanol from Maize
Ethanol is frequently manufactured via fermentation from biological feedstocks. Throughout these processes, monosaccharides are fermented to ethanol by yeast or bacteria. Carbohydrate-containing feedstocks that create monosaccharides for fermentation include corn grain, sugarcane, wheat, sugar beet, and other biomass. Ethanol, usually referred to as ethyl alcohol, drinking alcohol, or grain alcohol, is a colourless, flammable, and mildly toxic chemical compound present in alcoholic beverages. In ordinary speech, it is frequently referred to as "alcohol." Its chemical formula, as well as its empiric name, include EtOH, CH3CH2OH, and C2H5OH. Since prehistoric times, carbohydrates have been fermented to make ethanol. This method still produces all of the ethanol for drinking and more than half of the ethanol used in industry. Simple sugars are the raw material. Simple carbohydrates are converted to ethanol and carbon dioxide by the yeast enzyme zymase. Alcoholic liquids such as beer, wine, and spirits contain ethanol when diluted. It is used as a topical ingredient in pharmaceutical preparations (such as rubbing compounds, lotions, tonics, and colognes), cosmetics, and perfumes to prevent skin infections. Ethanol is used in fuels labelled as ethanol blended fuels as an industrial solvent for fats, oils, waxes, resins, and hydrocarbons. It is used to make a variety of chemical compounds, lacquers, plastics and plasticizers, rubber and rubber accelerators, aerosols, mouthwash products, soaps and cleaning preparations, polishes, surface coatings, dyes, inks, adhesives, preservatives, pesticides, explosives, petrol additives/substitutes, elastomers, antifreeze, yeast growth medium, human and veterinary medicines, and dehydrating agents. One of the most promising ethanol crops is maize. It generates maize grain, which is then converted to ethanol. Maize ethanol holds potential not only in terms of converting the grain to ethanol, but also in terms of applying cellulose conversion technology on the pericarp that covers the grain. Pretreatment and hydrolysis of cellulose allow cellulose conversion to be extended to other parts of the maize plant, such as corn Stover (cobs, stalks, and leaves). Significant increases in ethanol yield per acre of corn produced can be achieved if biomass from maize residue is utilised for ethanol production. To solve this difficulty, a quantitative analysis of mass balance was carried out. Corn cobs, stalks, and leaves can be converted to fermentable sugars using cellulose processing technology, which comprises pretreatment, hydrolysis, and fermentation with yeast or other microbes. Unlike grain-based feedstocks, cellulose-based ethanol requires microorganisms capable of producing ethanol from both glucose and xylose. Corn grain has a lot of starch, which following pretreatment (heating in water) and hydrolysis quickly breaks down into monosaccharides. Cecanis, a distinct form of glucanis, can also be found in the cob, stem, and leaves. The India ethanol market is predicted to grow from $ 2.50 billion in 2018 to $ 7.38 billion by 2024, with a CAGR of 14.50 percent from 2019 to 2024, owing to growing ethanol usage in sectors such as fuel additives and drinks. Ethanol is a common alcoholic beverage that comes in many different forms, including beer, cider, wine, spirits, and ale. The Indian government is pushing sugar producers in India to generate ethanol for Oil Marketing Companies in an attempt to reduce the country's reliance on imported crude oil (OMCs). Ethanol production will likely increase three to fivefold in the future to meet demand for its 20% Fuel Blending Program (FBP). Factors like as rising alcohol use, changing lifestyles, and the growing influence of western culture are projected to drive ethanol demand in the country. Few Indian Major Players 1.

Haemodialysis Solution B.P. and Erilite-Bicarb(Part-B)
When a person's kidneys aren't working properly, haemodialysis, often known as hemodialysis or simply dialysis, is used to clear their blood. This form of dialysis achieves the extracorporeal elimination of waste products such as creatinine and urea as well as free water from the blood when the kidneys are in a state of renal failure. Hemodialysis is one of three renal replacement therapies. Apheresis is a method for separating blood components such as plasma or cells outside of the body. The kidneys are responsible for filtering the blood and removing waste and excess fluid. Hemodialysis is a process that employs a machine to replace some of the functions of your kidneys if they have failed. Outpatient haemodialysis and inpatient haemodialysis are both options. Routine hemodialysis is done in a dialysis outpatient facility, which can be a standalone clinic or a specially designed unit within a hospital. Home haemodialysis is a less popular method of dialysis. At a clinic, dialysis treatments are initiated and managed by specialised staff made up of nurses and technicians; at home, dialysis treatments can be self-initiated and managed or done jointly with the support of a qualified helper, who is often a family member. A dry powdered Bicarb (Part-B) dry Bicarbonate concentration is available in India. To improve bicarbonate diffusion and act as a pH buffer to neutralise metabolic acidosis, which is common in these patients, bicarbonate levels in dialysis solutions are somewhat higher than normal blood levels. For patients who require dialysis on a short-term basis, as well as those patients who require maintenance dialysis, haemodialysis is the chosen renal replacement therapy. It removes solutes effectively and quickly. A nephrologist (a medical kidney specialist) makes the decision whether hemodialysis is required, as well as the numerous factors for dialysis treatment. The number of treatments per week, the length of each treatment, the flow rates of blood and dialysis solution, and the dialyzer size are all considerations to consider. The levels of sodium, potassium, and bicarbonate in the dialysis solution are occasionally changed. Haemodialysis can be performed in a hospital, at home, or in a dialysis machine that stands alone (also known as satellite units). In hospitals and satellite units, nurses and dialysis aides assist with treatment; at home, you or someone else must learn how to operate the equipment. Although one may feel fatigued after a dialysis session, because haemodialysis is only done three times a week, the days in between may allow for some regular activity, however dietary and fluid restrictions are usually required.

The HTC Vive will cost $799
By Tom Sykes 21 February 2016
PLAY IT FIRST
Try the HTC Vive at the PC Gamer Weekender in London from March 5-6.
Update: here's HTC confirming the news. I've also embedded a pointlessly sexy video of the headset.
The HTC Vive will cost $799, $200 more than the Oculus Rift. The price has leaked today ahead of its expected reveal at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona next week, and while it does sound quite pricey, the Vive comes with rather a lot of kit.
The Vive headset ships with two controllers, which you'll use in each hand, along with a couple of base stations to track your position around the room. Sticking with the 'two' theme, you'll also get two games: Job Simulator and Fantastic Contraption. If all that sounds reasonable, you can pre-order the Vive from February 29; the first units will arrive sometime in early April.
For comparison, the cheaper Rift comes with the hardware, two games, an Oculus remote and an Xbox One pad, although it doesn't include an Oculus Touch controller, which will be released later this year. The Vive, thanks to its body tracking system, needs a bit more kit than the Rift, and considering that, I think the higher price point is reasonable.
Out of my price range, but reasonable considering what the Vive is. If you need a reminder what the Vive is, have a read of Wes's hands on with a dozen games coming to HTC Vive this year, Also, if you're still on the fence, here's his handy face-off between the Vive and the Oculus Rift.
Thanks, Polygon.
