Do you know the power of Internet?

Internet not only give you knowledge but also give you the opportunity to work from your home, with your family. That's why millions of people around the world are turning to the Internet to work at home. Not only it give you freedom from daily 9 o'clock to 5 o'clock office work and tension of Boss deadlines but also it provide you with the opportunity to start your own business and become Boss. You can take your business wherever you would like to without having to ask for permission
It don't need any specialized knowledge in any field to start working from Internet, just interest to examine different areas in the Internet is sufficient. you can begin by selecting any field on the Internet. There is a plethora of opportunities and routes to venture into, giving you options like never before.It also give you opportunity to work in the area which is of your interest and so there is high chance for your business to develop and isn't it sounds good, you are making money out of your interests.There is no limit of income in this business not like your daily office job and getting fixed salary monthly. You can increase your income limitless, as long as you show interest in your interests.
One of the added advantage of online business is that you can take it with you wherever you go. you can work anywhere at anytime.
Here are the simple examples which you can choose to start with. This gives you the ability to start a business or jump into a company already developed that has to do with your interests and skills.

1. SFI BUSINESS

You can start your own business by becoming affiliate in SFI. you can jump start in this affiliate program by clicking on the link below. you can find a quick overview of the program and its advantage over other program Here.

http://www.sfi4.com/14872795/FREE

Is SFI a "pyramid scheme"?

Definitely not. In pyramid schemes, income is generated solely on the process of recruiting others into the pyramid who pay a fee to get in. Sometimes a product or service of questionable value is involved (one that is never retailed to the general public). However, generally what you're buying is the right to recruit others into the scheme. This is illegal. Also, in pyramid schemes, those who get in first and who are at the top of the pyramid win, while most everyone else loses.

In SFI, on the other hand, there is NO COST required to participate, and affiliates are paid ONLY on product movement (both at wholesale and retail)—never on recruiting.  And, unlike illegal pyramids, in SFI, no matter where you're positioned in the network or when you join, you can advance to the very highest income levels and even earn more income than those above you in the network.

You will not access the benefit unless you join the program. There is 24X7 hrs customer support, as well as online training to run the business. So you don't have to bother about the procedure to start the business. Important advantage of the program is that you don't have to buy any domain for that.

2. Find Affiliate Product and advertise in your Blog/Website

  • Find a product to promote where you make good commission on each sale. Generally, you will get the biggest commissions on digital products. Digital products are defined as something that is downloaded directly to a customer's computer after purchasing, like electronic books or software. Since there is no extra cost per unit, no inventory and no shipping, the commissions are much greater than on regular "physical" goods. The most common commission on digital products is 50%. The best place to find such products is Clickbank, Ebay, Amazon. Sign up as a reseller (also called affiliate) for a product that looks the most appealing to you. After you sign up, you will get a unique affiliate link where you need to send people to purchase the product. Your affiliate link will have a special code that will tell the product owner that it's you who referred the customer. The affiliate link code will allow your commissions to be tracked correctly and assigned to you.
  • In this process of starting business, first you have to create a blog or website where you can place the affiliate link from the affiliate program you have joined. you can create your own blog about any product or services or any other niche which you find suitable or you can buy a domain and web hosting space which is not so costly now a days. you can get both in one place at Godaddy.com.
  • Drive traffic to your blog or website to increase the sale of your product or services. You need to get more people to visit your web page. Either you can pay for advertisement or write same good and unique content in your blogs which will increase traffic. You can also join Linkcollider which will help you to increase traffic as well as guide you in every respect to make your site SEO friendly.

    How to transfer files between android devices and PC

    Obviously the best way to transfer files between PC and any mobile devices is to connect it with data cable and use media storage as the connection mode.

    But now a days every smart devices are coming equipped with wifi module and we can use this option to transfer any file between android devices, between android device and PC or between PCs.

    You can find many methods to transfer files over wifi but all methods require both the android device and the PC to be on same wifi network. If they are not on the same wifi network then you need to upload the files to some cloud storage eg drop box, skydrive and then access them on the PC and download from there. It will cost you on data usage for larger files.

    The best way which I found is to use Samba File sharing app. Only limitation with the app is that it only works on Rooted Phone.

    Step by Step procedure to setup the Samba File Sharing app to share files between PC and android device using Wifi tethering is described below.

    1. Connect your Phone to PC using android Wi-Fi Hotspot.
    2. Install Samba File sharing app from play store. (Root the phone if not already rooted. Rooting has other added advantages and procedure is easy.)
    3. Configure Samba file sharing app.

    How to configure Samba File Sharing app to share files between Phone and PC

    Step 1: When you run the application for the first time, you will get Superuser request which you need to grant in order to run the application.
    You can check your phone for Root access using Root Checker.

    Step 2: Open the app menu and select Settings to open Samba File sharing settings. Please do not enable the service without configuring the app.

    Step 3: In Samba Filesharing settings, configure the username and password that you will use to access the Android storages. You can skip the Workgroup Name and NETBIOS Name settings as it is not mandatory.


    Step 4: After configuring all these parameters, return to the Samba Filesharing home screen and enable the service from the menu. After you enable the service, the app will pop up following message on the screen to manually start Wifi tethering.

     Step 5: Press OK, then the app will give you IP of the phone on the app home screen.

    Step 6: Open Windows Run Box (Windows+R). On the Run Box type the IP address displayed on the phone along with the two prefixed backslashes and press enter.

     Step 7: If everything went fine, you will see a security window asking for the network credentials. Use the login credentials you configured on the Samba Filesharing app on Android and press enter.

    That’s all, you will be able to access your Android storage on your computer over the Wi-Fi which is not a part of any network, so your privacy is protected. You can use the access to read, modify and delete the SD card content directly from your Computer. One of the best advantage of using the app is that you can see both internal SD card(sdcard in picture) as well as external SD card(share2 in picture) in one place.

    All about Cyclone

    As the tropical cyclone named Hudhud originated in Andaman sea is approaching landfall to Andhra Pradesh and Orrisa, its very important for us to know each and every bit of it and also about its siblings who has already visited India and neighboring countries or are yet to visit.

    What you should know about cyclones
    1. Definitions
    2. What are the Process of cyclone Formation
    3. What are different monitoring and naming organization

    Definitions

    Tropical storms, cyclones, hurricanes and typhoons, although named differently, describe the same disaster type.
    Essentially, these disaster types refer to a large scale closed circulation system in the atmosphere which combines low pressure and strong winds that rotate in same direction as Earth. This is usually characterized by inward spiraling winds that rotate anti-clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere of the Earth.

    The system is referred to as a "cyclone" in the Indian Ocean and and South Pacific, "hurricane" in the Western Atlantic and Eastern Pacific and "typhoon" in the Western Pacific.


    Process of Cyclone Formation

    Cyclogenesis describes the process of cyclone formation and intensification
    • Scale of Measurement

      • Macroscale: The macroscale deals with systems with global size.
      • Synoptic scale: Synoptic scale systems cover a portion of a continent, such as extratropical cyclones, with dimensions of 1,000-2,500 km (620-1,550 mi) across
      • Mesoscale: The mesoscale is the next smaller scale, and often is divided into two ranges: meso-alpha phenomena range from 200-2,000 km (125-1,243 mi) across (the realm of the tropical cyclone), while meso-beta phenomena range from 20–200 km (12-125 mi) across (the scale of the mesocyclone).
      • Microscale: The microscale is the smallest of the meteorological scales, with a size under two kilometers (1.2 mi) (the scale of tornadoes and waterspouts).
       
    • Types of Cyclone: Tropical, subtropical, extratropical?

      1. An extratropical cyclone forms. Extratropical cyclones have cold air at their core, and derive their energy from the release of potential energy when cold and warm air masses interact. These storms always have one or more fronts connected to them, and can occur over land or ocean. An extratropical cyclone can have winds as weak as a tropical depression, or as strong as a hurricane. Examples of extratropical cyclones include blizzards, Nor'easters, and the ordinary low pressure systems that give the continents at mid-latitudes much of their precipitation.
         
        Extratropical Cyclone
      2. If the waters under the extratropical cyclone are at least 21C (70F), thunderstorm activity will gradually build inside the storm and moisten and warm the lower levels. Over time, the core of the storm may gradually go from cold to warm, and the storm will start getting some of its energy from "latent heat", which is the energy released when water vapor that has evaporated from warm ocean waters condenses into liquid water. Latent heat is what powers tropical cyclones. At this point, the storm is called subtropical. If the winds are already more than 39 mph, it is called a subtropical storm. If the winds are less than 39 mph, then it is called a subtropical depression. So, you don't need to start with a subtropical depression in order to get a subtropical storm.                                          
        Thenderstorm
      3. If the subtropical storm remains over warm water for several days, it may eventually become fully tropical, and be called a tropical storm. This happens when thunderstorm activity starts building close to the center of circulation, and the strongest winds and rain are no longer in a band far from the center. The core of the storm becomes warm, and the cyclone derives all of its energy from the "latent heat" released when water vapor that has evaporated from warm ocean waters condenses into liquid water. One does not find warm fronts or cold fronts associated with a tropical cyclone.
      The difference between a subtropical storm and a tropical storm is not that important as far as the winds they can generate, but tropical storms generate more rain. There is no such thing as a subtropical hurricane. If a subtropical storm intensifies enough to have hurricane force winds, then it must have become fully tropical.

    Warning and Identification of Tropical Cyclone

    Seven tropical cyclone "basins" where storms occur on a regular basis around the world and the Regional Specialized Meteorological Centers(RSMC) in charge are
     
    Regional Specialized Meteorological Centers

    These RSMCs are responsible for monitoring and prediction of tropical cyclone in their respective region. They are also responsible to name the cyclones.
    All the seven RSMCs comes under Five regional Bodies falling in their respective region. These Bodies are governed by World Meteorological Organization(WMO).
    Regional Bodies under WMD
    The WMO/ESCAP Panel on Tropical Cyclones at its twenty seventh Session held in 2000 in Muscat, Sultanate of Oman agreed in principal to assign names to the tropical cyclones in the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea. After long deliberations among the member countries, the naming of the tropical cyclones over north Indian Ocean commenced from September 2004.

    Naming of Tropical Cyclone

    Hurricanes and tropical cyclones in the Atlantic have had their own names since 1953, a convention begun by Miami's National Hurricane Centre and maintained and updated by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), a Geneva-based agency of the United Nations. 
    But naming came to South Asia and the Middle East only recently. For years cyclones that originated in the north Indian ocean were anonymous affairs.
    But finally in 2004, Eight countries - India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Maldives, Myanmar, Oman, Sri Lanka and Thailand clubbed together and agreed on their favorite names. They came up with a list of 64 names - eight names from each country - for upcoming cyclones.

    Tropical Cyclone naming

    Last cyclone originated in Arabian sea in June this year was named Nanauk by Myanmar. Now it was Oman chance to name the cyclone from the list and this cyclone is named as 'Hudhud'. The next cyclone will be named by Pakistan and that will be Nilofar.

    You can view the progression of Hudhud declared as very sever cyclonic storm by Indian Meteorological Department.

      THE PM Modi's 'Swachh Bharat Abhiyan'…….a great success

      Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s led 'Swachh Bharat Abhiyan' which has started on 2nd Oct on the auspicious occasion of birth anniversary of our Rastrapita Mahatma Gandhi, has been proved a great success as large number of people has participated in this grand event.

      It is the biggest ever cleanliness and sanitation drive in the country. The mega event like this has not been witnessed by me in the past. This is great initiative by our beloved Prime Minister to make us realize our duty towards our country. He has also physically participated in the cleanliness drive to motivate us.

      A 'clean India' by 2019 when the nation will mark 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi is the vision driving the mission.

      Generally 2nd Oct is regarded as a National Holiday and all offices, school, colleges remain closed on that day, but the PM has made the day useful by announcing the drive to clean their office, school, college premises, toilets and surrounding areas. In our office too, this cleanliness mission is going on since 28th sept. to 4th oct., and it will be continued in the future too. This will be best tribute to Mahatma Gandhi on his birthday anniversary.

      Government has allocated funds to each ministries like Railway ministry, HRD ministry, Urban and Rural development ministries, Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation to do their part to make the ‘clean India’ mission a success. Many experts has been assigned to recommend best technologies for the campaign.

      These fund allocation has been done in the past too, but how much investment has been made to sincerely do the job was a big question. Whenever there is fund allocation for a particular mission and is handed over to the people, there is no guarantee the job will be done until and unless they are particularly told what jobs have to be done. There should also be proper inspection about the quality of the job done. Then only the mission which our PM has started will be possible.

      If each and every Indians (including ministries) do their duty without compromising, then in no time the dream of ‘clean India’ will be fulfilled.

      A flexible display is a display which is flexible in nature; differentiable from the more prevalent traditional flat screen displays used in most electronics devices this is not just bendable or curved display which is now a day available in the market. We are talking about the display which can be rolled in your hand or can be wrapped in your hand. Let’s talk about the technology behind on which scientist are working on.

      • Electrophoretic, or, electronic ink


      E Ink is the creator of electrophoretic, or, electronic ink — the optical component of a film used in Electronic Paper Displays (EPD). These are designed to mimic the appearance of ordinary ink on paper.

      Characteristics of E-Ink

      • Bistable

      E Ink's technology is commonly referred to as "bistable". What does this mean? Bistable means that the image on an E Ink screen will be retained even when all power sources are removed. In practice, this means that the display is consuming power only when something is changing. For example, when reading on an eReader, power is only needed when turning to a new page but no power is consumed by the display while reading the page. This is most noticeable when an eReader goes into sleep mode yet there is still an image being displayed. By contrast, with a traditional LCD, the display is needs to be refreshed around 30X per second, regardless of the whether anything new is being displayed. Bistability significantly reduces the power consumption of displays using E Ink and is a key reason eReaders have such long battery life.
      • Reflective Displays

      E Ink displays are also referred to as "reflective displays." In an LCD, or "emissive display", light from a backlight is projected through the display towards your eyes. In an E Ink display, no backlight is used; rather, ambient light from the environment is reflected from the surface of the display back to your eyes. As with any reflective surface, the more ambient light, the brighter the display looks. The backlight can also consume up to 40% of the power used in electronic product. Therefore, eliminating the need for a backlight significantly increases the battery life versus using a traditional LCD.

      Flexible electrophoretic displays (EPDs)

      While the Ink film is currently fully flexible, it necessitate the manufacturing of TFT on non-glass substrate to make it fully flexible. It has been made possible by use of a polyimide plastic TFT backplane (also called as All-printed Organic Thin Film Transistor Backplane), which is laminated to the ink layer. These are All-printed Organic TFT Backplane Using a flexible TFT allows for a lighter display module and a more rugged display solution.
      Schematic structure of flexible EPD

      For applications such as cell phones or hand-held devices, the use of a plastic TFT can be augmented by a layer of unbreakable glass on the front of the display to give stiffness to a device which requires significant touch interaction, but still provides an increased ruggedness. In these types of devices the TFT itself is often the component that fails when dropped, rather than the top plane glass. A plastic TFT can significantly reduce display failure due to those drops.

      This technology is successfully employed in E-readers, Displays embedded in smart cards, Status displays, and digital photo frames etc. as the display is monochromatic. Researches are being carried out by using liquid crystal (LCD) and organic light emitting diodes (OLED) technology to produce color images.

      As we have seen in the schematic of flexible EPDs, there is transparent conductive film which act as top electrode for EPDs. Now a days Research around the world has been looking at different avenues for applying graphene to flexible displays, where it offers a potential alternative to the relatively scarce indium tin oxide (ITO), which is used as a transparent conductor to control display pixels. This will enable the manufactures to make low cost grapheme based flexible display in near future.
