How to take care of your ears

Very often we take things we have for granted. Our body has a value of $6 million according to a documentary that featured Donald Trump talking about it. Hearing loss is the third most common health problem in the United States.

Set the sound volume low

Better be safe than sorry. It is always nice to listen to music or a movie at a loud volume, but you won’t to keep this to a bare minimum. You don’t want to harm your hearing health.

Exercise

Get your heart pumping and your ears will be taken care off, recommend health experts.

Remove air wax properly

Put your little finger in and clean up your ear the old-fashioned way.

The other things I can think of are to eat better and consult a licensed hearing health professional. 

USD - LKR History

Catamaran fishing - Negombo

Ride on a traditional catamaran at dawn on one of Sri Lanka’s many inland lakes. The birdlife and scenery as the sun inches over the horizon dispelling the misty stillness is magical. Watch and learn as the fisherman effortlessly casts his net in a great ark across the water. The fisherman will only be too happy to let you try your hand at casting his net. Later, help the fisherman to draw in the net on his way back to shore. The mood will either be somber or jubilant depending on the weight of the catch.

Top VoIP Wireless Routers

What is VoIP?

VoIP stands for Voice over Internet Protocol. You might have seen all those Vonage ads and I am sure you would have used Skype, etc. Well, this is the technology that makes those free internet telephone calls happen.

Wireless routers in a nutshell

Nowadays, more and more businesses and homes are moving towards wireless routers for their networking needs.

ADSL 2+. How many volts is a lightning strike they insure upto 4000V.

USB to RS232 cable; portable wireless router, wireless headphone (create separate hubs for them)

Linksys WRT54G

It is based on the 802.11g Wi-Fi protocol.

I want to rival something like HowStuffWorks.com. You might think that it would not be possible, but I do have significant advantages - a more personalized service, a tight niche.

So yes, I will make it a point to read all the responses and respond - this is not coming from one faceless Fortune 500 companies.

How many airports are being built

The traffic in the sky is increasing. The boom in tourism has caused 350 new airports to be constructed in the Asia-Pacific region. China alone is looking to build 100 new airports as their middle class grows. A South China Morning Post article reported that there are ever-growing queues at immigration and overflowing baggage carousels. What is more the flight delays are proving to be expensive. Beijing’s new airport will have 7 runways with the capacity to handle 100 million passengers a year.

The total investment cost of the new airports is estimated at more than US$100 billion. India is planning to spend US$ 60 billion on constructing 100 new airports over the next 15 to 20 years.

There is an article on Wikipedia titled “List of airports under construction”. Fascinatingly, there aren’t many airports listed in this topic. The aviation space keeps evolving. It must be kept in mind that the current Melbourne international airport came about as a result of the older one not being able to keep pace with the growing tourist arrivals and departures during the 1960s. Tullamarine was a rural area in the 1950s and now it has grown into an urban area in its own right.
