			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Sometimes, strange smells can be observed due to discharging from inside of car. The reasons for this can be:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Musty (filthy) odors signify the presence of some trapped water, generally under the carpet. This may damage the carpet and also increases speed of corrosion. The good solution to this will be to separate the carpets and dry both the carpet and the floor of car.</li>
<li>Smoky smells can be of different kinds. Of which, electrical smoky smells are very dangerous and it is recommended to stop the car, open the bonnet (cover), detach the batteries and  look for professional help. Other kinds of smoky smells can occur when the sound or heat proof covering which is present  inside the engine space burns. The cause must be detected as early as possible.</li>
<li>Fuel smells can be observed when the fuel tank venting gets blocked or obstructed or if there will be an overflow in fuel.</li>
<li>At times, oil or exhaust smells from the engine can be observed. This can be produced either due to excess of engine oil, or if the engine oil has become old and is getting heated up, or if it gets overheated.</li>
<li>A characteristic sweatish smell occurs when varnish will get burnt which can happen when  dynamo or alternator is about to evacuate and is generally be connected with flickering lights.</li>
<li>Burning rubber smell will occur when a car is driven with brakes on. It can also be caused due to overheated tires.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Strange smells are considered as an early warning signal which must be spotted, as it helps in saving more time and money later.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Generally, business barcode ribbons are categorized into three types namely wax type, wax resin type, and resin.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Wax is the very less expensive barcode ribbon, which is available and is usually used for thermal transfer paper labels, furnishing cheap and easy printing. Common applications of wax barcode ribbons are inventory control labels, shipping labels, hang tags, general purpose labeling. Wax ribbons are best suitable for general purpose labeling.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Wax resin is generally used for thermal transfer printable surface paper, synthetic labels and tags. It is used where there is increased moisture or where a particular amount of smudge resistance is needed. They are applied for bagging machines, pharmaceutical labels, frozen product labels, drum and pallet labels, inventory control, mattress or cushion tags. Wax/resin ribbons are best suitable for moderate scratch, abrasion and mild chemical resistance.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Resin is usually used for thermal transfer printable high-end materials where it can resist extreme heat, oils and solvents. Its applications are for pharmaceutical labels, drum and pallet labels, asset labels, and dry cleaning labels. Resin ribbons are best suitable in harsh environmental conditions.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Self-contained rolls are generally available in different shapes and sizes, and may be acquired in either printed or non-printed form. High-quality self-contained rolls are used for good lifespan of dot-matrix printers as they provide very good image quality. They are usually used as cash register rolls for hospitality and retail industry, credit card processing.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">2D barcode technology provide high security for applications in retail, production and manufacturing and helps business owners to run their companies without any difficulty and productively. As 2D barcode technologies are useful for asset tracking and theft prevention security systems, it increases profits. Owners and managers can easily track their products leading to very less losses and less prone to human error.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">2D barcode technology must be essentially used with biometric physiological technologies in order to interpret digital data of a transformed image into a readable code, which is suitable for standard technologies. 2D barcodes utilizes the vertical dimension to insert a lot of data and save a lot of time and money in this process.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">2D barcodes facilitates to identity authentication in typical applications. Driver&#8217;s licenses, and many other identification cards, which are important consists of 2D barcodes in order to make verification fast and easy. The 2D barcode on the card is very useful as it contains a large amount of data which is nearly impossible to copy on a small condensed area.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The performance and popularity of 2D barcodes has made complete industry of mobile biometric devices very essential for security purposes, which was considered impossible without 2D barcodes. In government, law enforcement and the military applications, mobile devices incorporating biometric identification authentication techniques is based on 2D barcodes to verify and transmit necessary data across considerable distances.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">2D barcodes uses upper and lower case letters, numerical symbols and special characters, compressed images (some barcodes) all packed in very small compact area. The data present in this compressed format is read very quickly and easily by a digital device.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The use of 2D barcodes with biometric technologies will make a business more secure, efficient and productive. The business for devices, software and services using or implementing such technology is to grow as the requirement for increased security, efficiency, productivity and profitability.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Gardening is the method of growing plants. Ornamental plants are generally cultivated for flowers, foliage, overall look, and for their colors. Beneficial plants are cultivated for consumption purpose like vegetables, fruits, herbs, and leaf vegetables or for medicinal use. Gardening requires patience and observation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Types of Gardening:</strong><br />
There are indeed several distinct types of gardening, which consists of various styles, techniques, locations and types of plants. Five different types of gardening commonly used are:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><strong>Container gardening:</strong> It is process of growing plants in containers and is suitable for people staying in urban apartments as they can grow food, herbs, flowers and foliage in sunny windows or on balconies and rooftops. Containers plant can be cultivated in indoors, outdoors, in conservatories or greenhouses.</li>
<li> <strong>Raised bed gardening:</strong> Raised beds are suitable to grow different types of ornamental, edible and medicinal plants on top of barren surfaces ranging from rock-hard clay to concrete slabs. Raised beds are particularly suitable for disabled or elderly gardeners. As these gardens are built high, one can seat comfortably and do gardening without any pain in the joints and spine.</li>
<li> <strong>Indoor gardening:</strong> Many people grow houseplants for the visible benefits and to purify the air, which help in improving quality of air in new buildings, which are entirely airtight. Common houseplants which help in purifying the air are Chinese evergreen, English ivy, golden pothos, peace lily, bamboo or reed palm, spider plant, etc.</li>
<li><strong> Water gardening:</strong> Water gardens generally consist of aquatic plants, fish and other aquatic life. Regular aquatic plants for water gardens are dwarf papyrus, water hyacinth, wild celery and water lettuce and aquatic animals are snails, goldfish, mollies, guppies and gambezi to eat algae, mosquitoes, waste and decaying organic matter.</li>
<li> <strong>Community gardening:</strong> Community gardens are developed in public spaces, where a particular plot is rented to grow edible, ornamental and medicinal plants. This garden provides access to fresh produce, enhance neighborhoods, and give a feel of community and acquaintance to the environment.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Health Benefits Of Gardening At Home:</strong></p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li> Gardening plays a major role in improving health by promoting exercise, stress reduction, and relaxation. When viewed from medical perspective, researchers have shown that people who get associated with or communicate with plants are more capable to recover more from stress and mental lethargy or tiredness.</li>
<li> Families of reduced incomes, regard fresh fruits and vegetables as luxurious items as they cannot afford to buy them. Families with vegetable gardens at their home can eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, which are of high nutrition value.</li>
<li> Many people consider garden as a means to get release or escape from job pressures and family burden resulting in decreasing stress levels and related problems such as heart disease. Minnie Aumonier represented this in a remarkable way with, “When the world wearies and society ceases to satisfy, there is always the Garden.”</li>
<li> Gardening benefits children by providing knowledge on science, about necessities of plant life that can be interconnected with human necessities like water, shelter, air, food, and provides relaxation for abused children. A proper yard care and gardening pastime will have a continuous and beneficial effect on the neighborhood and colony environment.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The natural requirements for garden are soil, rocks, light (sunlight) conditions, wind, precipitation, air quality, and plant materials. Researchers observed that openness to nature is helpful in supplying immense pleasure to life. Yard care and gardening activities assist in developing individuals, strengthening families, and in building communities.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Even though they have different functioning, barcode and RFID technology are both beneficial for inventory management and other applications.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Benefits of RFID over barcodes are:</strong></p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><strong>Read      Rate:</strong> RFID      has high throughput because nearly 100 tags can be scanned at a time. But      in barcodes, tags are read manually one after one.</li>
<li><strong>Line      of Sight: </strong>It      is not required in RFID and items can be aligned in any direction, as long      as it is in the read range. But in barcode line of sight is required and      items should be oriented in a very particular manner.</li>
<li><strong>Human      labor: </strong>Human      effort is not required in RFID as it is completely automated. In barcodes,      laborers are required to scan each tag.</li>
<li><strong>Read      or Write Capability:</strong> RFID has the ability to read, write, modify, and update.      Whereas, barcodes can only read.</li>
<li><strong>Durability: </strong>RFID has the      ability to scan in the harsh environment, as it is much better protected      and can also be attached internally. It easily gets damaged or removed and      cannot be scanned if it is dirty or greasy.</li>
<li><strong>Security: </strong>In RFID      information can be encrypted, password protected, so information stored is      much more secure and very difficult to replicate. Whereas barcodes can be      easily counterfeited.</li>
<li><strong>Event      Triggering: </strong>RFID      has the ability to<strong> </strong>trigger particular events such as door openings,      alarms, etc. Whereas barcodes cannot be used to trigger events.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">To assure health of pregnant woman and that of baby, a health practitioner must be consulted before initiating a prenatal yoga program.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Following precautions must be considered before starting a routine: </strong></p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>If      taking a class, tell instructor about pregnancy. This helps instructor to      alter particular poses, which will suit you. It is better to join a      prenatal yoga class (exclusively for pregnant ladies). Today there are      many studios and instructors to teach them.</li>
<li>If      you’ve already been practicing yoga for some time, remember that you      should not perform few exercises (asanas) of your normal routine as      pregnancy progresses.</li>
<li>Some specific poses are not suggested for pregnant women, particularly poses involving abdominal twists, inversion poses, and deep bends. Moreover the corpse pose must be avoided after the first trimester. Talk to the instructor for directing about what poses are safe to perform in each stage of the pregnancy.</li>
<li>Power yoga and Bikram or hot yoga are also not recommended yoga practices at the time of pregnancy. The increased heat and strain of these practices increases mother’s internal temperature to a point, which might be harmful to the baby. These yoga practices can be done after the baby is born in order to boost energy and remove weight acquired during pregnancy.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">System software includes operating systems such as devise drivers, severs, windowing systems, and utilities. System software runs the hardware and computer system. The two main categories of system software are operating systems and utility software.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Functions of system software are:</strong><br />
The three major functions of system software are allocating system resources, monitoring system activities, and disk and file management.<br />
<strong></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> 1. Allocating system resources:</strong> The system resources are time, memory, input, and output. The time in the CPU is divided into time slices. The time slices is measured in terms of milliseconds. Based on the priority of tasks the time slices are assigned. Memory is also managed by operating system. Disk space is the part of main memory. The data flow is controlled by operating system.<br />
<strong> 2. Monitoring system activities:</strong> The system security and system performance is monitored by system software. System performance includes response time and CPU utilization. System security is a part of operating system. Multiple users can’t access without the security code or password.<br />
<strong> 3. File and disk management:</strong> The user needs to save, copy, delete, move and rename the files. The system software will handles those functions. Disk and file management is the technical task.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Strength training is a complete training on the use of resistance or weights for the functioning of muscle group. Strength training is considered as beneficial thing to do for perfect health, but not necessarily regularly employed into the exercise routine. Some benefits of strength training are:</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Develops muscle      mass and makes muscle burn more calories than fat. This makes the body burn      more calories even at rest, if strength train exercises are done      regularly. As muscle mass increases, metabolism increases and helps in      maintaining a healthy body weight. If the muscles are not rebuild by doing      exercise, then in every ten years 150-450 less calories must be consumed      to maintain present weight.</li>
</ul>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Helps to reduce or halt muscle loss, which is associated with aging. The fact is, an adult loses nearly one-half pound of muscle per year after the age of 20, which makes a person feel less energetic and usually weaker.</li>
<li> Restricts bone loss, which is associated with aging and improves bone density.</li>
<li>Improves joint flexibility.</li>
<li>Reduces pain caused due to ailments like arthritis and old injuries.</li>
<li>Improve fitness parameters like glucose metabolism, blood pressure, muscle strength endurance, body composition and insulin sensitivity.</li>
<li>Improves mood. Research from Harvard  University recognized that strength training is very efficient in decreasing of depression in old people (Singh, Clements, &amp; Fiatarone, 1997).</li>
<li>Enhances brain function.</li>
<li>Improves appearance.</li>
<li>Increases balance and reduce risk for injury.</li>
<li>Helps in sleeping more soundly.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The safety features are important for every car. The safety features of the car will protect the passengers and drivers in the car.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>The top ten car safety technologies are:</strong></span><br />
<strong>1. Tire pressure monitoring: </strong>The tire pressure monitoring system will alert you if the air pressure is low in the car.  The warning is given in the form of light on the instrumental panel. The flat tires will not allow the car to run at high rate of speed. Flat tire is a rubber made tire that has lost all or most of its air through leakage, puncture.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>2. <strong>Adaptive cruise control/collision mitigation: </strong></strong>The cruise control will maintain the constant speed of car. The cruise control system contains sensors and radars.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>3. Blind-spot detection/side assist/collision warning:</strong> This technology will find the blind spot during driving or parking. If this system detects anything on the way it gives signal by sound alarm and steering wheel to vibrate.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>4. Lane-departure warning/wake-you-up safety: </strong>This technology is just like blind-spot detection. Nevertheless, it is a long-range detection system. This technology is used when your changing lanes. This system contains stability control.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>5. Rollover prevention/mitigation:</strong> Rollover prevention system is more intelligent then the electronic stability control system and preparation system. This system will maintains the brake controls when you are whip around a car too fast.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>6. Occupant-sensitive/dual-stage airbags: </strong>The air bags will avoid head injuries during accidents.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>7. Emergency brake assist/collision mitigation:</strong> It is different from antilock system and electronic break force distribution. This will apply the additional break pressure to shorten the stopping distance.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>8. Adaptive headlights and/or night-vision assist:</strong> The adaptive head lights will follows the car directions and are also contains speed-sensitive.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>9. Rear view camera: </strong>The rear view camera will protects the children, animals from back over accidents.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>10. Emergency response: </strong>Emergency response system will handle the emergencies.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> </strong></p>
