Health Benefits of Coconut Water

Coconut water is the purest liquid second only to water itself. "Coconut water is the very stuff of Nature, biologically Pure, full of Natural Sugars, Salts, and Vitamins to ward off fatigue. and is the next wave of energy drinks But natural!."     
According to Mortin Satin, Chielf of the United Nation's Food and Agriculture Organization.
       
Drinking coconut water has many benefits:

Coconut Water Hydrates the Body


Coconut water is an isotonic solution which replaces the fluids and minerals that the body loses during physical activities. For this reason, many athletes and persons who work out regularly are encouraged to drink coconut water to replace all the minerals and fluid that they lose while working out. Even the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) attest to the benefits of drinking coconut water when it fought for a patent in 2000 to market coconut water as the next big sports drinks.

Coconut Water Relieves Urinary Problems

If you consume coconut water on a regular basis it can reduce urinary problems.People who suffer from strangury, polyutra and other urinary ailments drink coconut water to relieve their symptoms.

Coconut Water Kills Intestinal Worms

Drinking coconut water with one teaspoon of olive oil for three days will kill intestinal
worms and clear the stomach of worms, which makes for better digestion.

Coconut Water Breaks up Kidney Stones

People who have kidney problems and are plagued by kidney stones should drink coconut    water in addition to taking their medication. Drinking coconut water regularly helps to break up kidney stones making them easier to push out.

Coconut Water is used in Blood Transfusion

Coconut water is almost identical to blood plasma and this makes it easy to use for blood transfusion. In cases of emergency coconut water has been used as an intravenous     hydration fluid instead of the standard IV fluid. During World War II many wounded       soldiers were saved in the Pacific because of emergency transfusion using coconut water as plasma.

Coconut Water is an Antibacterial

Coconut water contains monolaurin, an antiviral, antibacterial and antiprozoal monoglyceride that is used to kill lipid-coated viruses such as HIV, Herpes, cytomegalovirus, flu and various pathogenic bacteria.
       
Coconut Water Controls Vomiting

Coconut water is great at reducing vomiting. People who have typhoid, malaria, fevers or other ailments that are known to induce vomiting drink coconut water to settle the stomach. As such, coconut water is also a good thing to drink during a hangover.
       
Green or unripe coconuts can be found in Asian and West Indian markets. All coconuts that they sell are closed up to keep coconut water from losing its nutrients. So,if you plan on buying a coconut, you can ask someone to chop the coconut open or you can open it yourself at home and drink it.
               
Coconut Water During Pregnancy

Many doctors recommend drinking coconut water during pregnancy due to wide range of nutritional benefits of coconut water. Young coconuts which have green shells (as opposed to the brown mature coconuts) are the ones with the most water content; this water is called coconut water or coconut juice. Tender coconut water (nariyal pani) is one of the richest sources of electrolytes. It is high in chlorides, potassium, and magnesium and has a moderate amount of sugar, sodium and protein. Potassium helps regulate blood pressure and heart function. Coconut water is also a good source of dietary fiber, manganese, calcium, riboflavin and Vitamin C.

A natural isotonic beverage with similar levels of electrolytes as the human body, coconut water helps prevent dehydration and relieves exhaustion by replenishing the natural salts lost by the body; it is widely used in tropical countries as a means for oral rehydration needed during diarrhoeal attacks. It is essentially fat free and has zero cholesterol and some studies have reported that it can have some effect on improving "good" cholesterol levels (HDL) in the body. In the heat of summer when you are looking for something other than water to quench your thirst, you can have this nutritious and refreshing beverage instead of sugar and calorie laden aerated drinks and fruit juices. It is naturally sterile and so perfect for drinking while travelling without the fear of contamination.
       
Coconut water is a natural diuretic and so increases the flow of urine; this helps prevent urinary tract infections (UTI) as well as reduces the incidence of kidney stones. Coconut water also helps relieve constipation, improves intestinal function and promotes digestive health. It is often recommended to people suffering from acidity and ulcers. Constipation, sluggish digestion and heartburn are common problems during pregnancy and can be helped to some extent by drinking coconut water.
       
Coconut water contains high levels of lauric acid which is what is used by the body to make monolaurin - a disease fighting fatty acid derivative. Lauric acid has anti-fungal,       anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties which protect the body against various    infections and boosts the immune system. With such wide ranging nutritional benefits it is no wonder that coconut water is recommended for pregnant women.
      
Coconut Water is one of the best natural drinks on the face of the earth. It doesn't have any known side effects unless somebody is prone to having allergic reactions or have severe nut allergies. It is considered to be safe for children, pregnant, and breastfeeding women. If you are taking potassium supplements it is recommended to regulate your potassium levels since Coconut Water is high in potassium.

History and Types of BMW

An acronym for Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (Bavarian Motor Works in English), BMW is one of the world’s most reputed automakers, headquartered in Germany. Founded in Munich in 1916, by Karl Rapp and Gustav Otto, the company was conceptualized for manufacturing automobiles, motorcycles and engines. BMW is the parent company of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and also owns and produces MINI cars. Motorcycles manufactured are under the BMW Motorrad and Husqvarna brands. Known for crafting luxury cars and SUVs, each BMW model offers superior levels of driving enjoyment and comfort. The logo of BMW represents white propeller blades against a blue sky. The blue and white color scheme also refers to Bavaria’s (Germany’s largest state) blue-and-white checkered flag. Read through the following lines to know some interesting and amazing information on the history, origin and background of BMW.


Interesting and Amazing Information on Background Of BMW: 


The origin of BMW dates back to 1913, when Karl Friedrich Rapp formed Rapp Motoren Werke in a suburb of Munich. Karl was a well-known engineer in a German aircraft company and found that the engines of the company had problems and suffered from excessive vibration. Rapp Motoren Werke contracted with Austro-Daimler to build V12 Aero engines for aircrafts. The company expanded rapidly, but Karl resigned due to financial problems in 1916. Two Austrians, Franz Josef Popp and Max Friz took over Rapp Motoren Werke. Another airplane specialist, Gustav Otto started building small aircrafts in a small shop named as Gustav Flugmaschinefabrik. In March 1916, Rapp Motoren Werke merged with Gustav Flugmaschinefabrik to form Bayersiche Flugzeungwerke. The company was later renamed as Bayersiche Motoren Werke or BMW, the present name of the company.


After World War I and the Treaty of Versailles in 1919, production of aircrafts were prohibited in Germany that changed the face of BMW. The company, then, started making brakes for the rail transport. Soon after, BMW designed a motorcycle engine that was used for building a motorcycle titled Victoria. However, Victoria was not built by BMW, but by another company named Nuremburg. In 1924, BMW built their first motorcycle called R32 which turned out to be a turning point in the BMW history. It was a major achievement for BMW and the technology was used for decades. In the year 1928, the company took over Dixi Company and thus followed the launch of BMW ‘Dixi’ 3/15 PS. This marked the beginning of the automobile production. Its tremendous success helped BMW overcome the crisis after WWI.


The DA2, an improved version of the former Dixi, was launched in 1929 which was characterized by an all-steel body and 4-wheel brakes. In 1930, Dixi achieved its first win in motor racing. A total of 18,976 Dixis were manufactured. In 1932, BMW’s first real car, BMW AM 4 or 3/20 PS went into production. The following year saw the first BMW inline-six cylinder power unit being introduced. BMW 328 that was produced in 1936 gained enormous popularity and remains BMW’s most famous pre-war sports car till date. However, BMW’s success was short lived, as the company was ruined after World War II. In 1951, the production of V8 equipped 501 luxury sedan was a poor effort and did not meet BMW’s standard and expectations.


The year 1955 brought back BMW on its feet. Isetta 250 was launched and was successfully manufactured by an Italian manufacturer Iso. The following year in 1956, BMW built one of the most memorable models in the BMW history, BMW 507 with a total of 252 examples. The 1500 was yet another BMW saver. Almost after ten years, the first generation 5 series, the E12 was launched in 1972. The following 6 years were profitable for the company, as it expanded the market by buying the Rover group from British Aerospace. However, Rover was further sold to Phoenix Venture Holdings and Ford Motor Company, due to losses incurred by BMW. The 3 series came up after three years in 1975 and in 1977 the market saw the 7 series.

In 1994, the company began production outside Germany and new factories were set up in South Carolina, Oxford, Goodwood, South Africa and other places. Today, BMW exports around 50,000 yearly vehicles to Japan, USA, Africa, Australia and the Middle East. Till date, the Z3, Z8 and all 3, 5, 7 and Motorsport series models are built keeping the BMW tradition of producing excellent automobiles with special emphasis on performance, style and technological advancements. Over the last few decades, BMW has built a standard for performance and luxury in most segments. It offers a wide range of family-friendly wagons, crisp sedans, distinctive coupes, nimble sports cars and spacious SUVs.


Different Kinds Of BMW Cars:
 
1 Series

Launched in 2004, the 1 Series is BMW’s smallest car, available in coupe/convertible and hatchback forms. This line of small cars has many structural, chassis, powertrain, hardware and electronic elements that are common to the 3 series as well. The series initially debuted with a 5-door hatchback and later graduated towards a 2-door coupe version. This series is priced on the grounds of the MINI and the 3 series.


3 Series

Tagged as BMW’s best-selling model, the 3 series, which was launched way back in 1975, still accounts for about 40% of the company’s car sales. Right from its journey as a station wagon to coupe to 4-door sedan to 2-door convertible versions, the 3 series has now been termed as BMW’s most reliable compact executive car. The 3 series is a mid-ranged priced vehicle.


5 Series

A little higher than the 3 series is the 5 series. Launched in 1972 as a mid-size executive car, today, one can find the 5 series either as a 4-door sedan or station wagon. BMW’s second best-selling model, it offers its customers a choice of 7 engines. In fact, the M5 Motorsport version is outfitted with a 507-horsepower V-10 capable of running 155 mph.


6 Series

The 6 series is BMW’s high-end luxury line that ran from 1976-89 and returned back again in 2003. Designed as a sports car, this grand touring version is offered as a coupe and convertible. Equipped with 507-horsepower V-10 and 286-horsepower 3-liter Twin Turbo Diesel, the 6 series delivers high-class performance enough to be competed with those of Mercedes-Benz E-class coupe, Audi A5 and Jaguar XK.


7 Series

The 7 series is BMW’s flagship car, offering a line of ultra-luxury and posh vehicles. Often termed as the ‘real car’, the 7 series is the version that the company is most celebrated for. Available only as an executive sedan, the 7 series was introduced in 1977 and runs on gasoline and hydrogen fuelled combustion engines, thereby preventing air pollution.


X5

Launched in 1999, the X5 is a luxury crossover SUV. It was the first SUV under BMW’s cap that was termed as “Four-by-Four” (4x4). Despite its huge size, the X5 is known as a Sport Activity Vehicle (SAV), rather than SUV simply because of its on-road ability.


X3

A compact crossover SUV, the X3 was launched in 2003 as a passenger car with truck-like features. Powered by either gasoline or diesel, the X3 is an all-wheel drive. After X5, the X3 is the second vehicle that BMW markets as SAV (Sport Activity Vehicle).


Z4
Succeeding the popular roadsters, such as BMW Z1, BMW 507, BMW Z8 and BMW Z3, came the new 2-seater sports roadster known as Z4. A rear-wheel drive sports car, Z4 was launched in 2002. The model was modified in 2008 as a coupe-convertible with a folding hardtop. The Z4 offers a top speed of 155 mph and can touch 62 mph from a standstill in just 5.1 seconds

Google's Instant Pages, Voice Search & Search by Image

Google has come up with yet another advanced feature called Instant Pages that predicts the link users wants to use and begins fetching its data – even before the user has clicked on the link. The new feature, expected to save 2 to 5 seconds on search query time, is based on Google Instant, which furnishes search results even before the user has finished typing the query or pressed the enter key. Google Instant is likely to be included in the newest test version of Google Chrome browser.

Apart from Instant Pages, Google has also unveiled two more major updates to its search engine – Google Voice Search and Google Search By Image. Voice Search allows users to search by just speaking the search keywords. The feature will be available to Chrome users initially. The feature only accepts voice in English language for now and is likely to support other languages in near future as per Google.

Google Search By Image ensures users can search an image by just dragging the sample of the image to be searched in the search engine box. After having dragged the image, the search engine searches similar images. If you are searching for the Eiffel Tower image, just drag and drop the image to the search engine box, and you will be served with the results. Google, however, has made it clear that the new image search feature will not support face recognition technology.

Google, which makes most of its revenues through search-based advertising, is enriching its Internet applications as it faces stiff competition from Bing. The Microsoft search engine is gaining popularity worldwide mainly due to its innovative Internet features. Several reports have also confirmed the growth in Bing's share in search engine space.

Daily Teeth Care Tips

Oral care does not ask much from us. We can preserve our beautiful smiles by regularly taking care of our teeth and gums. Oral care also helps oneself to be away from a lot of diseases. Oral diseases are linked to life-threatening illness like heart-diseases, strokes, diabetes, and premature low birth weight babies.
Here are some of the tips recommended for healthy teeth:

• Clean your teeth after eating by toothbrush and dental floss. Choose a toothbrush, toothpaste, and floss that bear the approval of your country’s Dental Association.

• Use the brush and floss in the correct manner.
• Brush your teeth twice daily with fluoride toothpaste to prevent tooth cavities.
• Use a tongue cleaner and a mouth wash regularly after brushing
• Replace your toothbrush regularly, approximately after 3 months.
• Visit dentist regularly. Keep a check on periodontal diseases, tooth decay and other gum diseases.
• Do not ignore gums that bleed when you brush or floss or changes in the way your teeth fit together when you bite.
• Don’t use tobacco products; they can increase the risk of gum diseases and also, oral and throat cancer.
• Don’t chew on hard objects that could crack a tooth.
• Wear a mouth guard when playing active sports.
• Eat a balanced diet for good overall health, selecting a variety of foods and limit snacks.
• Eating sweetened cereals dry is bad for teeth, always add milk.
• Drinking frequent cups of tea or coffee with sugar added will increase the risk of tooth decay.
• When less saliva is available on very hot days, one should not consume foods containing sugars that stick in the teeth.
• Don’t use lemon juice for whitening the teeth because vitamin c will cause the teeth to loose calcium thus making the teeth weaker.

Strong and healthy teeth helps one look healthy. If proper care is not given to them, it won’t long before cavities and unhealthy gums make the mouth look pale and sore. Unhealthy teeth make eating and smiling difficult. So, take proper care of teeth before it falls down.

What Is Open Source?

Open source is a philosophy which suggests that the source code behind something should be freely available to the public. The principle originated in the software industry in the late 1990s, with several releases of open source software and operating systems, and it has since diffused into other communities as well. There are a number of strong arguments for releasing something in open source format, whether it be a recording, a software tool, or an entire operating system.

The main advantage to open source is that it allows end users to directly interact with the source, potentially modifying it to suit their wishes. This encourages constant development and innovation, while also creating a community of shared information. Many companies which produce open source products rely on the innovations of users to expand features and to identify and fix potential weak points, and these companies actively encourage modification of their products.
There are varying levels of open source. In some cases, for example, an open source release may have certain restrictions, in which case some people prefer the term “shared source,” or “shared commons.” For example, someone may release a recording in open source format, but ask people not to profit from their retooling of the album. Many advocates of the open source philosophy prefer truly open source, allowing people to do whatever they want with the source code and the end product.

Some people mistakenly believe that all open source material is also automatically free. This is not, in fact, the case. Several companies manufacture open source products which require people to pay for them, with the fees supporting development of new products and additional features. It is also common to see shared source licenses on things which people pay for. Apple Computer, for example, releases some of its technology under open source licenses.

Open Source has its critics, especially in the intellectual property community. Most of these critics argue that for open source development and distribution to really work, a strong central organizer is needed, and it is not unreasonable for major developers to expect compensations for their work on open source projects. When material is truly open source, however, it is challenging to figure out how to structure such compensations, and this often leads to tangled issues with shared licenses and restrictions which some people find chafing.
