#26- Enhancement in Power Transmission System


1. Installation of New Transmission Line: 
This is usually the first option that comes to mind whenever a transmission line is limited in the amount of power it can transmit, so as to alleviate overloading by providing additional paths for power flow. It is beneficial by increasing the reliability of the transmission system. However, it has to pass through economic, political and environmental hurdles.

2. Reconductoring Transmission Line/Terminal Equipment Replacements: 
A line can be reconductored with a larger conductor with more power-carrying capability if the original transmission line conductor is inadequate to carry expected power flows, provided that the transmission line towers do not need to be significantly altered to support the heavier conductor. In addition, some terminal equipment may need to be upgraded to match the desired rating.

3. Conversion from single circuit to double circuit: 
This involves making necessary modifications to the existing transmission towers and adding a second transmission line to the structure. This option extensively reduces the line impedance and increases current-carrying capacity of the line, thereby increasing power transmission capacity of the line.

4. Voltage Upgrade: 
Another option is to increase the operating voltage of the transmission line, such as upgrading the voltage from 132 kV to 330 kV. In this instance, for example, the nominal rating of the line maybe drastically increased while using the same conductor. This type of improvement may require upgrading the transmission towers to meet National Electric Safety Code (NESC) clearance levels. In addition, the switching stations and substations must also be upgraded with higher voltage circuit breakers, switches, transformers, and other related equipment.

#24- Love is Crazy


Poem on love:
Love yourself. It is important to stay positive because beauty comes from Inside...
I choose to love you in silence…
For in silence I find no rejection,
I choose to love you in loneliness…
For in loneliness no one owns you but me,
I choose to adore you from a distance…
For distance will shield me from pain,
I choose to kiss you in the wind…
For the wind is gentler than my lips,
I choose to hold you in my dreams…
For in my dreams, you have no end.

Explanation:
Love is as critical for your mind and body as oxygen. It's not negotiable. The more connected you are, the healthier you will be both physically and emotionally. The less connected you are, the more you are at risk.

It is also true that the less love you have, the more depression you are likely to experience in your life. Love is probably the best antidepressant there is because one of the most common sources of
depression is feeling unloved. Most depressed people don't love
themselves and they do not feel loved by others. They also are very
self-focused, making them less attractive to others and depriving them of opportunities to learn the skills of love.

#23- 8 lifestyle practices that can help prevent cancer


1. Try to always avoid eating GMOs and processed food at whatever point conceivable. Most "American" traditional sustenance contains simulated fixings, pesticides, additives, added substances, blanch, nitrates, lethal gluten, and hydrogenated oils that cause disease.

2. Never put individual care items on your skin, hair, lips, or nails that contain chemicals. Search for natural items that let you know particularly, on the name, they DO NOT contain parabens, coal tar colors, powder, PEGs (polyethylene glycols), petroleum-based chemicals, phthalates, or Triclosan.

3. Never copy or shower items in your home that contain chemicals, as modest candles and most mainstream air fresheners. Purchase natural candles and make your own particular air freshener with sifted water, rubbing liquor (as bearer), and common fundamental oils for awesome scents. It's a simple recipe! Presently go purchase a shower bottle.

4. Stay away from all antibodies and influenza shots, as most contain mercury, aluminum, MSG, and formaldehyde. This is no joke. Simply check the CDC site. It's terrifying and deteriorating. Such a variety of trick maladies out there and you can manufacture common invulnerability by eating natural sustenance and taking home grown tinctures. Look at turmeric, oil of oregano, and garlic!

5. Never drink water from the tap, as it ordinarily contains sodium fluoride and other individuals' drugs. Chemicals like dye cause bladder tumor and pancreatic disease. Purchase a decent water channel and never think back!

6. Dodge every white sustenance since they are blanched: including white bread, white pasta, white flour, white sugar, white rice aside from basmati.

7. Dodge fake sweeteners - for the most part aspartame, sucralose (Splenda), and sorbitol. These are known to bring about bad tempered entrails and headaches, which are simply first signs your body is dismissing them. Later comes disease. Stopped them all NOW!

8. On the off chance that conceivable, stay away from professionally prescribed pharmaceuticals, as most are substance based and turn the blood acidic, empowering tumor to create and spread effortlessly. Enormous astound, huh? About each solution out there basically eases the indications of poisonous quality briefly. Try not to fall for the traps MDs spend.

#22- FACTORS AFFECTING GLOBAL WARMING


1: Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel burning power plants

Our ever increasing addiction to electricity from coal burning power plants releases enormous amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. 40% of U.S. CO2 emissions come from electricity production, and burning coal accounts for 93% of emissions from the electric utility industry. Every day, more electric gadgets flood the market, and without widespread alternative energy sources, we are highly dependent on burning coal for our personal and commercial electrical supply.

2: Carbon dioxide emissions from burning gasoline for transportation

Our modern car culture and appetite for globally sourced goods is responsible for about 33% of emissions in the U.S .With our population growing at an alarming rate, the demand for more cars and consumer goods means that we are increasing the use of fossil fuels for transportation and manufacturing. Our consumption is outpacing our discoveries of ways to mitigate the effects, with no end in sight to our massive consumer culture.

3: Methane emissions from animals, agriculture such as rice paddies, and from Arctic sea beds.

Methane is another extremely potent greenhouse gas, ranking right behind CO2. When organic matter is broken down by bacteria under oxygen-starved conditions (anaerobic decomposition) as in rice paddies, methane is produced. The process also takes place in the intestines of herbivorous animals, and with the increase in the amount of concentrated livestock production, the levels of methane released into the atmosphere is increasing. Another source of methane is methane clathrate, a compound containing large amounts of methane trapped in the crystal structure of ice. As methane escapes from the Arctic seabed, the rate of global warming will increase significantly.

4:Deforestation, especially tropical forests for wood, pulp, and farmland

The use of forests for fuel (both wood and for charcoal) is one cause of deforestation, but in the first world, our appetite for wood and paper products, our consumption of livestock grazed on former forest land, and the use of tropical forest lands for commodities like palm oil plantations contributes to the mass deforestation of our world. Forests remove and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and this deforestation releases large amounts of carbon, as well as reducing the amount of carbon capture on the planet.

5: Increase in usage of chemical fertilizers on croplands

In the last half of the 20th century, the use of chemical fertilizers has risen dramatically. The high rate of application of nitrogen-rich fertilizers has effects on the heat storage of cropland and the run-off of excess fertilizers creates ‘dead-zones’ in our oceans. In addition to these effects, high nitrate levels in groundwater due to over-fertilization are cause for concern for human health.

6: Rise in sea Level worldwide

Scientists predict an increase in sea levels worldwide due to the melting of two massive ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland, especially on the East coast of the U.S. However, many nations around the world will experience the effects of rising sea levels, which could displace millions of ice to melt.

7: More killer storms

Scientists have come up with the firmest evidence so far that global warming will significantly increase the intensity of the most extreme storms worldwide. The maximum wind speeds of the strongest tropical cyclones have increased significantly since 1981, according to research published in Nature the, thought to be driven by rising ocean temperatures, is unlikely to stop at any time soon.

8: Massive Crop Failures:

Climate change is expected to have the most severe impact on water supplies. “Shortages in future are likely to threaten food production, reduce sanitation, hinder economic development and damage ecosystems. It causes more violent swings between floods and droughts.

Disapperance of Coral Reefs:

Despite the oceans’s immensity — 71 per cent of the Earth’s surface with an average depth of almost 4km (2½m) — there are indications that it is approaching its tipping point. For reefs, warming waters and acidification are closing in like a pair of jaws that threaten to make them the first global ecosystem to disappear.

#20- Best article on Life


Life is the name of purpose, struggle, love, dedication and a number of feelings and emotions. Life shows its true colors with time. It depends upon you that how you look towards life and what is your strategy of leading an ideal life.
Life takes a number of turns during its whole span. Life may not be kind to you all the times. There are tough times which really test your courage and your capabilities of facing unfavorable situations. How well you tackle these adverse conditions prove your credibility. People who just close their eyes to avoid facing the hardships of life are coward. They do not have courage and stamina to stand firm in front of life’s demon. Remember that nothing can be done without trying, without striving hard to get yourself out of the trouble, without facing the situations. Such incidents in life improve your approach towards destiny. These incidents may entirely change one’s life (in some cases). These make your thinking a bit more rational. If there were no such thrills in life, it would be quite boring and monotonous. These incidents make you strong nerved person. In other words, life tests you all the time.
“Life is different from a teacher because teacher teaches a lesson and takes the exam but life takes exam first and then teaches a lesson.”
When you are in love, life changes its meanings, priorities and requirements. Life seems to be confined within the kingdom of your loved one’s heart. Life is a gift of God and to love and being loved is the best feeling in life which has no parallel. Everyone wishes to live a blissful life with his/her life partner. Life can be blissful only if you know each other, understand well and stand for each other through bad times.

#19- Do Hair and Nails Keep Growing After a Person Dies?


Here's a dreadful question to consider: Do hair and fingernails keep on growing after a man kicks the bucket? 
The short answer is no, however it may not appear that path to the easygoing eyewitness. That is on account of after death, the human body dries out, bringing about the skin to contract. This contracting uncovered the parts of the nails and hair that were once under the skin, making them seem longer than some time recently, said Dr. Doris Day, a dermatologist in New York City and a going to doctor at Lenox Hill Hospital, additionally in New York. 
Commonly, fingernails develop around 0.1 millimeters (0.004 inches) a day. In any case, keeping in mind the end goal to develop, they require glucose — a straightforward sugar that powers the body.
"Once your body dies, there's no more glucose," Day told Live Science. "So skin cells, hair cells and nail cells no longer turn over and produce new cells."
Moreover, a complex hormonal regulation directs the growth of hair and nails, none of which is possible once a person perishes, according to a 2007 study in the journal The BMJ.
Regardless, popular culture often gets this fact wrong. In the book "All Quiet on the Western Front," the protagonist imagines his dead friend's nails growing in corkscrews after death, the researchers of the study said. They also noted that even Johnny Carson got his facts wrong when he joked about it, saying, "For three days after death, hair and fingernails continue to grow, but phone calls taper off."

#14 Programming


Computer programming  is a procedure that leads from a unique plan of a figuring issue to executable  programs. Programming includes exercises, for example, examination, creating understanding, producing calculations, check of necessities of calculations including their accuracy and assets utilization, and execution (generally alluded to as coding) of calculations in an objective programming dialect. Source code is composed in at least one programming dialects. The reason for writing computer programs is to discover a succession of guidelines that will computerize playing out a particular assignment or taking care of a given issue. The way toward programming therefore frequently requires mastery in a wide range of subjects, including learning of the application space, specific calculations, and formal rationale.

#11 Global Warming: News, Facts, Causes & Effects


Global warming is the term used to depict a steady increment in the normal temperature of the Earth's environment and its seas, a change that is accepted to be forever changing the Earth's atmosphere. There is awesome verbal confrontation among many individuals, and now and again in the news, on whether a dangerous atmospheric devation is genuine (some call it a deception). However, atmosphere researchers taking a gander at the information and realities concur the planet is warming. While many view the impacts of a dangerous atmospheric devation to be more considerable and more quickly happening than others do, the logical agreement on climatic changes identified with a worldwide temperature alteration is that the normal temperature of the Earth has ascended somewhere around 0.4 and 0.8 °C in the course of recent years.

#10 USB 3.0 Speeds Up Performance on External Devices


The USB connector has been one of the best examples of overcoming adversity ever, with more than 2 billion USB-associated gadgets sold to date. Yet, during a time of terabyte hard drives, the once-cool throughput of 480 megabits for each second that a USB 2.0 gadget can sensibly give simply doesn't cut it any more. 
What is it? USB 3.0 (otherwise known as "SuperSpeed USB") guarantees to expand execution by an element of 10, pushing the hypothetical most extreme throughput of the connector as far as possible up to 4.8 gigabits for every second, or preparing generally what might as well be called a whole CD-R plate each second. USB 3.0 gadgets will utilize a somewhat unique connector, yet USB 3.0 ports are relied upon to be in reverse good with current USB fittings, and the other way around. USB 3.0 ought to likewise extraordinarily upgrade the power effectiveness of USB gadgets, while expanding the juice (almost one full amp, up from 0.1 amps) accessible to them. That implies speedier charging times for your iPod- - and presumably significantly more odd USB-associated equip like the toy rocket launchers and refreshment coolers that have been trimming individuals' work areas.

#8 Capillary Action


The rise or fall Of a liquid in a capillary tube is related to the surface tension of a liquid whether a liquid rise in a capillary like water or depressed like mercury. It depends on the relative magnitude of cohesive and adhesive forces.These forces determine the contact angle which the liquid make with the walls Of the tube.

If the contact angle is less than 90° it is said to wet surface and concave miniscus is Formed.

If contact angle is Greater than 90° the liquid doesn't wet the surface and convex miniscus is formed.

The formation of concave miniscus by a liquid that wet the glass leads to the capillary rise whereas the formation of convex miniscus leads to the depression in the liquid and shows Capillary Fall.

#7 WHAT HAPPENS INSIDE A BATTERY RIGHT BEFORE IT EXPLODES


From the blazing Note 7 failures to detonating hoverboards, lithium-particle batteries aren't doing as such hot of late. Another review clarifies how these prominent power sources can transform into wellbeing dangers. 
In the paper, distributed in the Journal of the Electrochemical Society, researchers at the Canadian Light Source (CLS) synchrotron peered inside an exhausted battery. For this situation, they depleted a battery until its voltage was underneath a basic level.
When we overcharge or overheat lithium particle batteries, the materials inside begin to separate and deliver rises of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and different gasses. Weight develops, and the hot battery swells from a rectangle into a cushion shape. Now and then the telephone included will work thereafter. Different circumstances it will pass on. Also, every so often—kapow! 
To see what's going on inside the battery when it swells, the CLS group utilized a x-beam procedure called figured tomography.

#6 Gesture-Based Remote Control


What is it? Compared with the intricacies of voice recognition, gesture recognition is a fairly simple idea that is only now making its way into consumer electronics. The idea is to employ a camera (such as a laptop's Webcam) to watch the user and react to the person's hand signals. Holding your palm out flat would indicate "stop," for example, if you're playing a movie or a song. And waving a fist around in the air could double as a pointing system: You would just move your fist to the right to move the pointer right, and so on.
When is it coming? Gesture recognition systems are creeping onto the market now. Toshiba, a pioneer in this market, has at least one product out that supports an early version of the technology: the Qosmio G55 laptop, which can recognize gestures to control multimedia playback. The company is also experimenting with a TV version of the technology, which would watch for hand signals via a small camera atop the set. Based on my tests, though, the accuracy of these systems still needs a lot of work.

#5 Facts About Acids And Bases


1.Any aqueous (water-based) liquid can be classified as an acid, base or neutral. Oils and other non-aqueous liquids are not acids or bases.
2.Acids can accept an electron par or donate a hydrogen ion or a proton in a chemical reaction, while bases can donate an electron pair or accept hydrogen or a proton.
3.A strong acid or strong base completely dissociates into its ions in water. If the compound does not completely dissociate, it's a weak acid or base. How corrosive an acid or a base is does not relate to its strength
4.Acids and bases react with each other in water is called a neutralization reaction. The reaction produces salt and water and leaves the solution closer to a neutral pH than before.
5. PH of Acids is less than 7 while pH of bases is Greater than 7.

#4 Wireless Power Transmission


Wireless power transmission has been a fantasy since the days when Nikola Tesla envisioned a world studded with tremendous Tesla curls. Yet, beside advances in energizing electric toothbrushes, wireless power has so far neglected to make noteworthy advances into purchaser level apparatus. 
What is it? This late spring, Intel analysts showed a strategy - in view of MIT research- - for tossing power a separation of a couple of feet, without wires and with no perils to onlookers (well, none that they think about yet). Intel calls the innovation a "remote full vitality connection," and it works by sending a particular, 10-MHz motion through a loop of wire; a comparative, adjacent curl of wire reverberates tuned in to the recurrence, making electrons move through that loop as well. In spite of the fact that the plan is primitive, it can illuminate a 60-watt knob with 70 percent effectiveness.

#3 Memristor


What is it? As its name suggests, the memristor can "recollect" how much current has gone through it. Furthermore, by substituting the measure of current that goes through it, a memristor can likewise turn into a one-component circuit segment with one of a kind properties. Most remarkably, it can spare its electronic state notwithstanding when the current is killed, making it an incredible contender to supplant today's blaze memory.
Memristors will hypothetically be less expensive and far speedier than blaze memory, and permit far more prominent memory densities. They could likewise supplant RAM chips as we probably am aware them, so that, after you kill your PC, it will recall precisely what it was doing when you walk out on, and come back to work in a flash. This bringing down of cost and merging of segments may prompt to moderate, strong state PCs that fit in your pocket and run ordinarily speedier than today's PCs. 

#2 'Octopus-like' skin can stretch, sense touch, and emit light




A health care robot that displays a patient's temperature and pulse, and even reacts to a patient's mood.An autonomous vehicle with an information display interface that can be changed based on the passenger's needs.Even in this age of smartphones and other electronics wonders, these ideas sound quite futuristic. But a team of Cornell graduate students – led by Rob Shepherd, assistant professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering – has developed an electroluminescent "skin" that stretches to more than six times its original size while still emitting light. The discovery could lead to significant advances in health care, transportation, electronic communication and other areas."This material can stretch with the body of a soft robot, and that's what our group does," Shepherd said, noting that the material has two key properties: "It allows robots to change their color, and it also allows displays to change their shape."This hyper-elastic light-emitting capacitor (HLEC), which can endure more than twice the strain of previously tested stretchable displays, consists of layers of transparent hydrogel electrodes sandwiching a dielectric (insulating) elastomer sheet. The elastomer changes luminance and capacitance (the ability to store an electrical charge) when stretched, rolled and otherwise deformed."We can take these pixels that change color and put them on these robots, and now we have the ability to change their color," Shepherd said. "Why is that important? For one thing, when robots become more and more a part of our lives, the ability for them to have emotional connection with us will be important. So to be able to change their color in response to mood or the tone of the room we believe is going to be important for human-robot interactions."In addition to its ability to emit light under a strain of greater than 480 percent its original size, the group's HLEC was shown to be capable of being integrated into a soft robotic system. Three six-layer HLEC panels were bound together to form a crawling soft robot, with the top four layers making up the light-up skin and the bottom two the pneumatic actuators.

#1 Engineers integrate internal robotic tactile sensors





Most robots achieve grasping and tactile sensing through motorized means, which can be excessively bulky and rigid. A Cornell group has devised a way for a soft robot to feel its surroundings internally, in much the same way humans do.
A group led by Robert Shepherd, assistant professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering and principal investigator of Organic Robotics Lab, has published a paper describing how stretchable optical wave guides act as curvature, elongation and force sensors in a soft robotic hand.
Doctoral student Huichan Zhao is lead author of "Optoelectronically Innervated Soft Prosthetic Hand via Stretchable Optical Wave guides," which is featured in the debut edition of Science Robotics. The paper published Dec. 6; also contributing were doctoral students Kevin O'Brien and Shuo Li, both of Shepherd's lab.
