WEB BROWSER

There are many web browsers releasing each and every day. For a person who has been using the internet from the days it began, the newer releases at this period would provide a lot more comfort. First it was Internet Explorer which captured the market and then came earlier versions of Mozilla by Netscape Communications. Apple then showed its technical prowess with the launch of Safari. Then the latest release by the giant Google
the first of its kind – Google chrome. The efficiency of google chrome is not reachable for a first time browser but on the other hand if you are a internet freak, then it would be a lot comfortable using chrome as it has more easier tab browsing, download options and more importantly, the concept of treating each tab opened as a separate window there by reducing the problems. Another main point which is attractive in Google chrome is that it display the home page of the web sites we frequently visit in its start page thereby reducing our time invested and its more userfriendly.

NATURE- its Supremacy!!


With the inventions and achievements in various fields, man finds himself to be superior to all the existing power on earth. But there is something supernatural and it always tends to be mysterious to mankind. It is nature. Nature, always portrayed as Mother Nature, has its own laws and it would never be anticipated. Earlier, and even at present, nature is considered as God and people worship it. It is because man utilizes every component of nature for his well-being and development. But nature can be a disaster too! A natural disaster is the consequence of a natural hazard it affects human activities drastically. Volcanic eruption, earthquake, hurricanes, flood, tsunami or landslides are some of the natural hazards. The Central China flood of 1931 is generally considered the deadliest natural disaster ever recorded, and almost certainly the deadliest of the 20th century. The human casualties were estimated to be 4 million. There are various incidents which have caused worse effects than this incident. Though the financial, environmental or human losses cannot be prevented, we can make use of scientific forecast schemes and effective emergency management. But still nature roves to be and is superior to man!!!
