SI Units in Power Industry

While the entire world has switched over to SI units, it is sad the way the US power industry is still persisting with British Units. The funny thing is that even the British have switched over to SI units. They are so much more easier and convenient to use compared to the archaic British Units. The excuse that the power industry has been using is that it costs too much to switch over. That is just so much Bull. There are hardly any costs involved with the computer resources available today along with the use of decimal numbers . Afterall other countries have been able to afford it so why not the US ? No wonder the rest of the world would rather deal with Europe than USA when it comes to power issues. That is where the business and power jobs of the world are going. The US power industry appears to be just too lethargic and stuck in its ways to make the switch. Fortunately, the intellegentia, that is the scientific community in USA has switched over to SI units, but the industry continues with a crude ancient system of units that should have been shelved decades ago.....

On Revival of Soma plant of Rig Veda

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Path_between_sugar_canes_%285216462193%29.jpg Similar Document also available for view or download at: https://www.scribd.com/doc/290825034/On-Revival-of-Soma-plant-of-Rig-Veda Abstract An ancient plant was described as a god amongst plants in the Rig Veda, an ancient sacred text of Indo-Aryans. The proper identification of this plant has been lost to mankind since ancient times. Scholars have made several diverse attempts to identify what this plant might be but none of the proposals come near the original Soma plant. In the present note a possible identification of this plant is made with a likely extinct variety of a sugar cane plant. It is suggested how an existing varieties may be genetically modified to yield a variety close to original Soma 1. Introduction There was a plant of earth that grew around the Himalayas known as Soma. It was regarded by ancient Indo-Aryans as godly plant. Ancient Indo-Aryans...

How to build a toilet for less than a few thousand rupees or twenty dollars – and stop open defecation

The Septic Drain T hose who live in developed countries may be surprised to learn that a large part of the human population lives without a toilet. Put crudely they simply piss and shit out in the open. In India it is estimated that half the population does that. This is all the more tragic in a country that invented toilets, bathrooms and covered drains five thousand years ago in the Indus Valley civilization ( http://alienaccount.blogspot.in/2013/09/indus-valley-and-atlantis.html ). Since then though, a lot of piss and water has passed under the bridge with a slide into poverty and decay. Aside from the inconvenience of having to run out into the fields every now and then, the phenomenon of open defecation poses some serious issues that have only increased with an increase of population density on the planet. First are health issues. When it rains the waste is washed into drains, rivulets, rivers, ponds and lakes. Water sources are then charged with disease causing bac...
