Nature, Geography, Astronomy / Brief of Astronomy
« on: July 08, 2011, 12:38:20 PM »
Explanation: These tantalizing panoramas follow a remarkable giant storm encircling the northern hemisphere of ringed planet Saturn. Still active, the roiling storm clouds were captured in near-infrared images recorded by the Cassini spacecraft on February 26 and stitched into the high resolution, false-color mosaics. Seen late last year as a prominent bright spot by amateur astronomers as Saturn rose in predawn skies, the powerful storm has grown to enormous proportions. Its north-south extent is nearly 15,000 kilometers as it now stretches completely around the gas giant's northern hemisphere some 300,000 kilometers, Taken about one Saturn day (11 hours) apart, the panoramas show the head of the storm at the left and cover about 150 degrees in longitude. Also a source of radio noise from lightning, the intense storm may be related to seasonal changes as Saturn experiences northern hemisphere spring

Health, Food, Nutrition / This article is about the human condition
« on: July 06, 2011, 07:08:34 AM »
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the human condition. For other uses, see Health (disambiguation).
The Star of Life.
Health is the level of functional and (or) metabolic efficiency of a living being. In humans, it is the general condition of a person in mind, body and spirit, usually meaning to being free from illness, injury or pain (as in “good health” or “healthy”).[1] The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health in its broader sense in 1946 as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity."[2][3] Although this definition has been subject to controversy, in particular as having a lack of operational value and the problem created by use of the word "complete", it remains the most enduring.[4][5] Classification systems such as the WHO Family of International Classifications, which is composed of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), are commonly used to define and measure the components of health.
The maintenance and promotion of health is achieved through different combination of physical, mental, and social well-being, together sometimes referred to as the “health triangle”.[6][7] The WHO's 1986 Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion furthered that health is not just a state, but also "a resource for everyday life, not the objective of living. Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities."[8]
Systematic activities to prevent or cure health problems and promote good health in humans are delivered by health care providers. Applications with regard to animal health are covered by the veterinary sciences. The term "healthy" is also widely used in the context of many types of non-living organizations and their impacts for the benefit of humans, such as in the sense of healthy communities, healthy cities or healthy environments. In addition to health care interventions and a person's surroundings, a number of other factors are known to influence the health status of individuals, including their background, lifestyle, and economic and social conditions; these are referred to as "determinants of health".

Islam & Science / Isalam And Science.

This article is about the relationship between Islam and science. For the historical development of science in the Islamic world, see Science in medieval Islam. For for the belief that the Quran scriptural foreknowledge prophesied scientific theories and discoveries - known as 'Ijaz al-Qur'an, see Scientific foreknowledge in sacred texts.
Islam and science describes the relationship between Muslim communities and science in general. From an Islamic standpoint, science, the study of nature, is considered to be linked to the concept of Tawhid (the Oneness of God), as are all other branches of knowledge.[1] In Islam, nature is not seen as a separate entity, but rather as an integral part of Islam’s holistic outlook on God, humanity, and the world. This link implies a sacred aspect to the pursuit of scientific knowledge by Muslims, as nature itself is viewed in the Qur’an as a compilation of signs pointing to the Divine.[2] It was with this understanding that the pursuit of science was tolerated in Islamic civilizations, specifically during the eighth to sixteenth centuries, prior to the colonization of the Muslim world.[3]
According to most historians, the modern scientific method was pioneered by Islamic scientist Ibn Al-Haytham (known to the west as “Alhazen”);[4] Alhazen helped shift the emphasis on abstract theorizing onto systematic and repeatable experimentation, followed by careful criticism of premises and inferences.[5] Robert Briffault, in The Making of Humanity, asserts that the very existence of science, as it is understood in the modern sense, is rooted in the scientific thought and knowledge that emerged in Islamic civilizations during this time.[6]
Muslim scientists and scholars have subsequently developed a spectrum of viewpoints on the place of scientific learning within the context of Islam, none of which are universally accepted.[7] However, most maintain the view that the acquisition of knowledge and scientific pursuit in general is not in disaccord with Islamic thought and religious belief.[1][7] Physicist Taner Edis argues this is because some Muslims are reading into the metaphorical language of the Holy books what is not there, including recent scientific discoveries.[8

Internet / Internet for child
« on: July 02, 2011, 04:26:55 PM »
The Internet is creeping into how we live our lives, so your child is no exception to the winds of changes and can definitely benefit from the web. There are many cool websites out there and you could find a lot of resources for your child (and yourself as well). Educational games, coloring books, stories for you to read to him, info on this favorite cartoon character, its all there, just you have to be there with him to look for it ! Supervised usage of the Internet is strongly encouraged, keep explaining to him the concept of links, point out the interesting things for him and share his joy and excitement and joy at having covered something new!! .. let him also click on hyperlinks, don’t be restless when he takes all day to click, we know net usage is costly, but that smile, the glow of his face, and the glitter in his eyes on reaching somewhere is more precious than anything .. right?!!

Articles, Poetry, Rhymes & Write up / African History, African Religion
« on: July 01, 2011, 09:56:52 PM »
Islam and Africa has made something of each other that is quite extraordinary,” – Rene A. Bravmann in ‘African Islam’.
“African Muslims have always maintained a quite close links with the Arab world, from which a numbers of reformers came. But Islamization was essentially carried out by Africans themselves, who shared the same life, spoke the same language, lived in the same cultural world entirely. There is no doubt that, for African Muslims, ‘Africanicity’ and Islam are in no way opposed. For them Islam is not an imported religion. For many, abandoning the Muslim religion is equivalent to the rejection of all their family and tribal traditions, so intermingled are the two socio-religious universes. One must conclude that, Islam in the traditional African form, is entirely a part of African cultural heritage and thus an Afican reality,” – Estella in book Islam in Sub-Saharan Africa.
To many historians – African-Islamic connection goes back to the arrival of first humans, Adam and Eve, on Earth. Both began their life in African continent – and according to Holy Qur’an – both Adam and Eve – like Noah, Abraham, Jacob, Yusuf, Moses, David, Solomon, John the Baptist, and Jesus – were all Muslims (worshippers of One Allah).
Islam with no church, teaches that all humans, irrespective of their gender, skin color, and ethnic origin are capable of doing good – there is no ‘Original Sin’. The one Creator (Allah) is the Lord of all, not of some ‘chosen people’ or tribe.
According to report published by Washington-based Population Reference Bureau and USAID – the African population has reached one billion in 2008 – and at the current growth rate, it’s expected to double by 2050. Muslims make 48% of African population, followed by Christianity (37%).
Professor Dr. Mohamed Elmasry (University of Waterloo, Canada), an Egyptian-born African Canadian – wrote an excellent article titled What if European had not discovered Africa?, published in The Canadian Charger.
“Begining in 711, and for some 700 years, Africans were rulers, academics, scholars, army commanders and sailors in Muslim Spain. Mixed marriages led to more than 25 generations of African Europeans. There is increasing evidence that Africans came to America long before Columbus (see professor Ivan Van Sertima’s classic They Came Before columbus).
Before 1412, Africa was also heavily influenced by Asians, specially by the Arabs, before and after Islam, via Sinai, the Red Sea, and Indian Ocean. The relations were based on trade and culture exchange, rarely on wars. These marriages, which Islam accelerated, were a positive social integration factor in the advancement of both Africans and Arabs.
Before Islam, the most famous Queen of Arabia, the Queen of Sheba (Bilqis), was an African and her son sat on the throne of Ethiopia.
Islam teaches that a slave (Black or White) is a victim of circumstances who should be helped to be free and treated fairly in the meantime. Trading in slaves is a sin. This is in contrast to the teaching of the Bible, “Slaves obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling (Ephesians 5-6)”. (According to Talmud, every male Jew is required to recite in the daily prayer: “Thanks G-d for not making me a Gentile, a Woman, and a Slave”)……”

Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow;
And everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go.
It followed her to school one day,
Which was against the rules,
It made the children laugh and play,
To see a lamb at school.

Story & Experience / Jack And The Beanstalk
« on: July 01, 2011, 09:49:26 PM »
Jack And The Beanstalk
Long ago in a far away land, a poor woman lived with her only son Jack.
One day the woman found that they had nothing left to eat and no money to buy food. The woman told Jack, who was already feeling hungry to take the cow to the market and sell her ."Make sure you get a good price for her" she said. Jack went to the field and tied a rope around the cow's neck and started walking down the road towards the town.
Suddenly, Jack found a small old man walking besides him. He was very surprised. "That's a nice cow", said the strange man. "yes she is", said Jack. "I am off to the market to sell her". "I'll buy her", said the old man. " No I must go to the market and get the price I can." I'll give you a good price for her", said the old man. "How much?" asked Jack. "Seven magic beans", said the old man. "No way said Jack. I'll give you the beans for the cow and life will be different for you, said the old man. "I am sorry my mother will be very unhappy, if I went home with a handful of beans. I must sell her at the market, "said Jack; "You will not be successful, said the old man "But go if you must" The market was very busy Jack stood in the middle calling out that his cow was for sale, but nobody spoke to him or even looked at the cow.
At the end of the day everyone started packing up "come on" he said to the cow, "let's go back home". "You still have the cow and I still have the magic beans", the old man appeared again. Jack stopped and thought if the beans were magic they may well change things. "I all take the beans", he said "Wise choice", said the old man, "and Good luck". "Thank you" said Jack and headed for home and as he looked back the old man was no where to be seen. "Beans...Beans !! ", shouted his mother. "How will the beans feeds us" "They are magic beans, "said Jack. "Magic, how stupid ! oh you silly boy", said his mother and threw the beans out of the window.
They went to bed hungry. When Jack woke up the next morning, he saw a very strange thing. A huge green trunk was growing past the window, with enormous leaves. Jack called his mother and shouted, "It's the beans you threw last night". They both looked up and the bean- stalk served to be growing right into the sky, disappearing into the clouds. "I am going to climb it, "said jack. "Oh! Jack don't "said his mother. "You don't know where it goes". "I 'll find out", said jack and he began climbing. Jack climbed so high that he went through the white clouds.
As, the bean- stalk finished a path stretched in front of Jack. In the distance he could see a castle. When he reached the castle he, stood in front of the huge gate and pulled the bell. A large woman came out of the door. "How did you get here?" she asked, "come in before my husband arrives". Jack was taken into the kitchen. The table and chair were like mountains to him. "Have some breakfast you must be hungry," said the woman. Jack ate a plate full of food. Loud steps, could be heard suddenly, "That's my husband", said the woman. You must hide or he will eat you". Jack went behind the overdoor. "Fee,Fo,Fi,Hum, I smell the blood of an English man. Be alive or be he dead, I'll grind his bones to make my bread", shouted the giant as he came into the kitchen. You are imagining things, "said his wife". "There is no English man here". Your breakfast is on the table. "Jack watched the giant as he ate his breakfast & very often he would stop and sniff and then carry on eating. When he was full he called out to his wife, bring my golden hen.
The hen was tiny and sat on the table in front of him. "Lay golden hen, said the giant. The hen began to lay eggs and they were golden eggs Jack was looking at this from his hiding place. The giant soon began to snore and was fast asleep. Jack jumped and climbed the table, crept past the giant, picked up the hen and ran. He ran fast out of the castle and then down the bean attack . His mother was relieved to see him and the hen that laid golden eggs. They would never go hungry again. Jack began to get bored after a while. They had plenty of money, plenty to eat and new clothes to wear
One day he said to his mother, " I am going to climb the beanstalk again, "But why?"' She asked "I want to see what else is up there, said Jack and climbed the bean stalk again. This time where he reached the castle, he hide in the draw. After a while he heard loud footsteps ""Fe, FO, if, fume, I smell the blood of an English man and this time I will find him." "I'll help you said his wife. The naughty boy took your favourite hen. They looked high and low but could not find Jack. Don't be upset, said the giant's wife, "eat your dinner and have rest". The giant finished his dinner and called his wife, "Bring my harp it can sing me to sleep. "His wife bought the harp and the giant stroked the string, the harp began to sing by itself. The giant smiled and yawned and soon went to sleep. As soon as the giant was fast asleep, Jack jumped out of the drawer and grabbed the harp as he had not seen such a beautiful thing before. "Master-Master", shouted the harp "Help me". Jack started running the giant got up and ran after jack. Jack ran as fast as he could and came to the bean- stalk, he climbed down as fast as he could.
"Mother" shouted Jack. "Mother bring me the axe". His mother took one look up and ran to fetch the axe. When Jack was on the ground, his mother took the harp and handed him the axe. "Whack-Whack" went the axe cutting the bean stalk "fe,fo,fi,fum", bellowed the giant, suddenly the whole thing began to fall over. The bean- stalk landed with the grant waking in huge hole. The giant tumbled down the hole never to be seen again. Jack and his mother lived happily ever after, with the golden hen and the singing harp.

His mother was relieved to see him and the hen that laid golden eggs. They would never go hungry again. Jack began to get bored after a while. They had plenty of money, plenty to eat and new clothes to wear
One day he said to his mother, " I am going to climb the beanstalk again, "But why?"' She asked "I want to see what else is up there, said Jack and climbed the bean stalk again. This time where he reached the castle, he hide in the draw. After a while he heard loud footsteps ""Fe, FO, if, fume, I smell the blood of an English man and this time I will find him." "I'll help you said his wife. The naughty boy took your favourite hen. They looked high and low but could not find Jack. Don't be upset, said the giant's wife, "eat your dinner and have rest". The giant finished his dinner and called his wife, "Bring my harp it can sing me to sleep. "His wife bought the harp and the giant stroked the string, the harp began to sing by itself. The giant smiled and yawned and soon went to sleep. As soon as the giant was fast asleep, Jack jumped out of the drawer and grabbed the harp as he had not seen such a beautiful thing before. "Master-Master", shouted the harp "Help me". Jack started running the giant got up and ran after jack. Jack ran as fast as he could and came to the bean- stalk, he climbed down as fast as he could.
"Mother" shouted Jack. "Mother bring me the axe". His mother took one look up and ran to fetch the axe. When Jack was on the ground, his mother took the harp and handed him the axe. "Whack-Whack" went the axe cutting the bean stalk "fe,fo,fi,fum", bellowed the giant, suddenly the whole thing began to fall over. The bean- stalk landed with the grant waking in huge hole. The giant tumbled down the hole never to be seen again. Jack and his mother lived happily ever after, with the golden hen and the singing harp.
