The eyes work on a rule of ‘keep-me-wet-always’ principle which drives the efficiency of the job of the optical nerve to its maximum potential. And it is also known to all of us that it is the human tendency to decrease the blinking of the eyes when we are working on the PCs. This, along side with the misplaced lighting above or in-front of the monitors does impact the way we perceive the information on them. And if you sit near the windows or sun-shades, then there is a can’t miss scope of the sunlight playing major role in the brightness around you and the more pressure the monitor creates on your eyes.

In order to balance this, we suggest you to use F.lux which adjusts your monitor brightness based on your location and weather conditions and aadjust to the lighting conditions around you to provide suitable ambience. F.lux works by scanning the position of the Sun based on your time zone and your zip-code and adjust the display settings automatically. Its queer to get yourself adjusted when you use this application for the first time because, we always tend to set the contrast and brightness of the monitor to a ‘pleasant’ level of viewing but not the ‘right’ level of viewing.

We cant show you how the monitor changes because it is well worth the download of 545KB and there is also an option to disable the F.lux application for one hour if you are going to work on any color sensitive work.

What more can you ask for? One additional feature is the Parent Mode. So, when your children are using the computer, you can set the reminder in such a way that they would be prompted to take some rest from using the system for a brief interval and relax their eyes.

You can download the application for free from Zdnet.

So, why use Cell-Mate?

Never settle for sub-par reception. Never worry about charging your Bluetooth headset. Never risk your safety trying to sync your headset with your phone while driving. All you have to do is answer your cell phone and place the Cell-Mate on your head.

What an explanation for the tool which would be used in this manner while driving? Would you suggest using this kind of tools rather than having a bluetooth head piece?

Ridiculous? Lol….It surely is.

You can watch it in action on Cell-Mate US.

In a mysterious ritual followed in  Jumalapur village in Bijapur district, a couple dipped their 3 month old infant into boiling hot water and lifted it out during the festival of Balabhim near Talikot town on Friday.

The couple, Prabhavati and Sanganagouda got married a few years, but were without children. Disappointed, the couple prayed their wish to be fulfilled. Their priest speaking on behalf of the Almighty provided a boon to these couple and in return asked them to perform this strange ritual and they did.

The first baby born in the due course died early because of some ailments and unknown whether this is a challenge to the science, the baby dipped in the hot water is safe and healthy even after this bizarre experience.

So, what would happen to the baby of 3 months age if dipped in boiling water?

The possible outcomes are:

• Skin burns; after six hours, pleps form on the skin
• Pleps are defined as boils where water collects under the skin and internal organs could get damaged.
• In second-degree burns, internal fluid imbalance takes place
• Kidney and cardiac failure soon follows.

When would people do learn to stay away from the not-cock-sure rituals and customs that do not cost their lives, but others?

As the famous Ilchi Lee quotes goes:

Be thankful for reality. Disease enters the body through resentment. The way to revive your energy is to be grateful to yourself. It will enable you to live, gain confidence, and experience joy. If you don’t know how to be grateful to yourself and how to be thankful for your destiny, you will feel constantly frustrated and grow anxious. Darkness finds us when we lose gratitude.

-Ilchi Lee

As the quote goes, so does the worthful explanation of Ilchi about the Human Brain and the capabilities that it possesses which are yet to be unleashed. The teachings of Ilchi  do emphasize the fact that the children are to be trained in yoga, martial arts, meditation in order to unleash their productivity from their childhood.Lee teaches that while the brain is the primary focus of his training methods, the health of the physical body as a whole is of primary concern in the initial phase of training (Brain Sensitizing). Exercises and practices followed during this phase are heavily influenced by the notion of ki energy as it is understood in Traditional Korean medicine. This typically includes a variety of exercises that are said to be designed to open up the energy meridian system of the body. and work to open up the body’s seven major energy centers, known as chakras.

The portal www.ilchilee.net do state the teachings of Lee in a formal sense by providing ethereal explanations about the teachings and preachings. Lee sets aside the notion of keeping a track of the essential chores of humans by stating simple rules like Creating a space in your home that is exclusively for your best work, post reminders throughout your living and working space and to Write down your goals to move on a winning path.
