Anything to keep the pangs of hunger at bay! :)

[h=3]Soup kitchens are a silver lining for urban poor[/h] In fact it is the prolonged delay in its implementation that has led to 'man-made starvation', in the wake of the recent drought. Two years ago, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa, launched the astutely named 'Amma' subsidised canteens. The Congress party-led government in Uttarakhand has inaugurated the 'Indira Amma canteens'.

[h=3]Microsoft looking to store data in synthetic DNA – Tech2[/h] If you put all the DNA molecules in your body end to end, the DNA would reach from the Earth to the Sun and back over 600 times (100 trillion times six feet divided by 92 million miles). If you could type 60 words per minute, eight hours a day, it would take approximately 50 years to type the human genome. Simply put, it contains a whole lot of genetic data. Microsoft is looking to tap into the DNA model of data storage as the amount of digital data produced has long been outpacing the amount of storage available. This project enables molecular-level data storage into DNA molecules by leveraging biotechnology advances in synthesizing, manipulating and sequencing DNA to develop archival storage.

[h=3]Transgender wisdom from a bear with a sore head[/h] The discovery followed soon after a report in New Scientist that virgin births are not only possible, but common, having been observed in snakes, fish, chickens and sharks. The belief that virgin births only produce sterile daughters was also disproved, the science journal said, and the findings "overturn everything we knew about parthenogenesis".

Uber autowalah comes only after we assure him that

we are standing on the road ready for the ride! :clock:

Prepare to Pay Extra If You Keep Your Uber Driver Waiting

You shouldn't keep your Uber driver waiting; it's just impolite. The company has just decreased its five minute grace period to two minutes. What's more, if you cancel your ride after the two minute grace period, you might incur a fee for that, too. Uber says these fees vary depending on the city, ranging from $5-$10.

The new app, launched a month ago, is aimed primarily at shopkeepers who only want a way of collecting payments through digital wallets. "EPaisa will continue to be fullfledged point-of-sale software offering billing and inventory management," Siddharth Arora, CEO of ePaisa, told ET. "MasterWallets is for the merchants who want a no-frills app — there is no physical KYC process (only eKYC) and there is zero cost involved for the merchant." Payments would be made into the merchant's verified bank account, he said. Over

How can anyone name such a massive thing as a HOLE??? :shocked:



  • [h=3]Black Hole 660 Million Times As Massive As the Sun[/h] New York: A team of astronomers has for the first time derived a highly precise measurement of the mass of a black hole - calculating its mass to be 660 million times greater than that of the sun. Working with high-resolution data from the Atacama Large Millimetre/submillimetre Array in Chile, the scientists determined the speed of a disk of cold molecular gas and dust orbiting the supermassive black hole at the heart of a nearby giant elliptical galaxy named "NGC 1332". "This is the first time that ALMA has probed the orbital motion of cold molecular gas well inside the gravitational sphere of influence of a supermassive black hole," said Aaron Barth, professor of physics and astronomy from the University of California-Irvine.
