No Lollipop update for ASUS phones for next 3-4 months

8:27 PM    

The Asus Zenfone 2 series of smartphones has gone on to become quite popular in India, but Asus seems to have forgotten the ones who bought the first generation Zenfones that were launched in India. They are awaiting the Lollipop update from quite some time now, and it seems that they’ll have to keep on waiting.

Asus has just revealed through its Indian Facebook page that the Lollipop update for the Zenfone 5 will be delayed by another 3-4 months. The update was supposed to come earlier this year, but it got delayed to mid-May. as mid-May came, Asus again hit a roadblock on May 21, and as a result, the update has further been delayed till August-September.

The update for Zenfone 5 getting delayed hints towards the update for the Zenfone 4 and Zenfone 6 getting delayed as all of them have a similar set of specifications. The update will have to go through Indian carriers as well before finally hitting the devices so that might be another snag in the update rollout.

Initially, the update for the Padfone S was delayed alongside the update for Zenfones. Asus hasn’t stated if this further delay will be applicable for the Padfone S as well, but we hope not.

Myths You Believe Because of TV and Movies

8:16 PM    

 

[dropcap]W[/dropcap]e all see a lot of movies and we believe some points  without knowing its true fact, here are some Myths You Believe Because of TV and Movies  till this age.

YOU HAVE TO WAIT 24 HOURS TO FILE A MISSING PERSONS REPORT


For some reason, TV and movies keep telling us that a person has to be missing for 24 hours before the police will file a report. In the real world, police actually consider the first 24-48 hours of any case as the most important. There's a much higher chance that the missing person can be tracked down in this time period. Police always take action for missing children, but adults often disappear on purpose so those cases are usually taken less seriously. [/tie_slide]

SILENCERS MAKE GUNS NEARLY SILENT


Movies and TV shows have convinced us that a "silenced" gun makes a quiet whistling noise when it fires. The truth is that it still sounds like a gunshot, but the volume is slightly lower and it sounds more like a pop than a bang. It makes a lot of sense when you know that silencers are actually called "supressors" by real gun owners. They are mainly used to protect the hearing of the owner while firing, not make them silent. [/tie_slide]

CARS ALWAYS EXPLODE


Almost ever single action movie ever made features a scene where a car explodes into a giant fireball. Real-life cars are designed with safety as a top priority and can withstand just about any reasonable impact. In the very worst crashes, a car might catch on fire, but almost never explodes. "Mythbusters" even proved that shooting the gas tank with a bullet under the perfect circumstances won't make it explode. [/tie_slide]

TRACING A PHONE CALL TAKES MINUTES


Many years ago, the phone system was not computerized and relied on switchboards to connect calls. It would take the police a few minutes to determine where the call was routed from, which was often depicted on screen. The problem is that movies and TV shows still act like this is a thing. In modern times, a location is attached to a phone call the instant that it connects, and it doesn't matter if it's a cell phone or landline. Whether you hang up after 10 seconds or 10 minutes, the police can find you. [/tie_slide]

LOCKS ARE EASILY DESTROYED BY SHOOTING THEM


You've been lead to believe that as long as you have a gun, you can break through any lock by shooting it. In the real world, bullets don't just work like magic keys. Shooting a lock from point blank range would send out shrapnel that would likely injure the shooter. In addition, most handguns don't fire a large enough bullet and don't have enough power to bust through a metal lock. That's why police use a high-powered shotgun to breach doors, and even then they don't shoot locks directly. [/tie_slide]

DEFIBRILLATORS BRING PEOPLE BACK TO LIFE


The defibrillator is a staple of medical drama shows. The patient flatlines, so the doctors grab the the metal paddles, says "clear", and then miraculously shocks the victim back to life. If this has always seemed to good to be true, that's because defibrillators don't really work this way. The electrical shock that this useful tool provides is delivered to someone starting to go into cardiac arrest, not after their heart stops. The shock is just meant to reset the heart to a normal rhythm. [/tie_slide]

CHLOROFORM KNOCKS PEOPLE OUT INSTANTLY


Chloroform is a favorite tool of movie spies and villains to incapacitate their enemy without killing them. Just by holding a rag soaked in the chemical up to a person's face, they pass out for hours. In reality, it takes about five straight minutes of inhaling chloroform to knock somebody out. Even then, they must receive a constant dose to stay asleep and will suffocate unless their head is propped up.[/tie_slide]

ISPs cannot block Uber and Ola websites due to technical issues

1:54 AM    

We had reported earlier regarding block on cab-apps  now as a response to Department of Telecommunications order to block Delhi websites of Uber and Ola cab services, Internet Service providers plan to write to telecom department expressing their inability to adhere to the order due to some technical limitations.

 
“We can only block http sites and not the https sites as the latter have higher encryption codes,” Rajesh Chharia, the president of the Internet Service Providers Association of India (ISPAI) said. “TaxiForSure website can be blocked as it is an http site”, he added. He also stated that the inability to block the websites were repeatedly communicated to the Government.

The sources further say that the Government had promised to set up a committee to observe the matter, but was not fulfilled. There also seems to exist a confusion within the telecom department about the new directive, with a few claiming that they are totally unaware of it.

Few newspapers report that the department itself tried to block the websites during March, but failed to proceed due to the strong encryption code. Government takes the stand that the taxi services are unlicensed radio taxis and that they do no adhere to the state law. Based on which, it asked to ban these services’ digital platforms. These services came under the scrutiny when an Uber driver raped a woman passenger in November 2014.

சோற்றுக்கற்றாழை - Alvera(Aloe Vera)

1:50 AM    

சோற்றுக் கற்றாழைக்கு சித்த மருத்துவர்கள் கொடுத்திருக்கும் மதிப்பே தனிதான். மூலிகைகள் உலகத்தில் ராஜ மரியாதையுடன் வலம் வரும் இந்த சோற்றுக்கற்றாழை அதற்கு முற்றிலும் தகுதி உடையதுதான். எளிதாக கிடைக்கக்கூடிய இந்த மூலிகை ஏராளமான மருத்துவக்குணங்களை கொண்டது.

தீய சக்திகள், கண் திருஷ்டி இவைகளை அண்டவிடாது என்ற நம்பிக்கையின் காரணமாக வீட்டின் முன்புறம் வளர்க்கப்படுகிற அல்ல கட்டித் தொங்க விடப்படுகிற இந்த செடி மாட்டுத் தொழுவங்களில் கால்நடைகளுக்கு உண்ணி பற்றாமலிருப்பதற்காகவும் தொங்க விடப்படுவது உண்டு.

கற்றாழையின் சோற்றைத் தலையில் தேய்த்து அரை மணி நேரம் ஊற வைத்துக் குளிக்க தலையில் ஏற்படும் பொடுகு, சிரங்கு குணமாகும்.

சோற்றுக் கற்றாழை மடலை இரண்டாகப் பிளந்து உள்ளே சிறிதளவு வெந்தயத்தை வைத்து மூடி விடவும். இரண்டு நாட்கள் கழித்து ஊறிய அந்த வெந்தயத்தை எடுத்து தேங்காய் எண்ணெயில் போட்டு அதை தேய்த்து குளிக்க நரை முடியும் கறுப்பாகும்.

வாடிச் சருகான கற்றாழை மடலை தீயில் கருக்கி, தேங்காய் எண்ணெயோடு கலந்து தீப் புண்களில் மீது பூசி வர விரைவில் புண் ஆறும்.

கற்றாழை மடலில் சிறு துண்டு எடுத்து இரண்டாக பிளந்து சோற்றுப் பகுதியை தீயில் வாட்டி உடல் பொறுக்கும் சூட்டில் அடிப்பட்ட இடத்தில் இதை வைத்து ஒத்தடம் கொடுக்க வலி, வீக்கம் மட்டுமல்ல இரத்தக் கட்டும் மாறும்.

இச் செடியின் மடலில் உள்ள சோற்றை எடுத்து தண்ணீரில் நன்கு அலசி அதை சாப்பிட்டு வர குடல் புண், மூல நோய் மாறும். மலச் சிக்கல் தீரும்.

மஞ்சள்காமாலை நோய்க்கும் சோற்றுக்கற்றாழை மருந்தாக பயன்படுகிறது. தவிர கூந்தல் தைலம், அழகு சாதனப் பொருள்களில் இது சேர்க்கப்படுவதால் பொருளின் தரமும், வீரியமும் மட்டுமல்ல மருத்துவதன்மையும் அதிகரிக்கிறது.
