He too is very open and honest about it. That’s him — he likes that zone and it’s great that he is able to interweave it so nicely in his films. Recently, they met each other in Bulgaria and they have met before also at our home. So I have called him up and said "listen, I am not doing this film, it’s not working for me”. I also know for a fact that for him too it won’t be a deciding factor. Zameen was his first filmChina packing machine Factoryas director and I remember him coming to Ajay and telling him, ‘Sir, I want you to act in this film’. But there is nothing wrong with that. Rohit Shetty’s films have a different kind of craziness about them How is he as a director Rohit puts it across very nicely. It was okay to take credit when it released and became a hit. I have said this earlier also. For instance, if a script comes to me, and they tell me that they have approached Shah Rukh for it, that will never be a deciding factor for me. (Laughs)How’s your equation with Rohit Shetty, especially since he has also had such a long standing association with your husband Yes, Rohit has been working with us for a long time now. I remember after DDLJ, somebody said that we are becoming the "hit jodi”. There are people who you are close to, that I may not be close to and that does not make them enemies. Tell us about how the industry used to be in the 90s and how would that compare to the wayecord of doing the maximum number of films with new directors. They have the ability to look at the larger picture. I like it that way. I don’t think there is a discomfort but I also don’t think there is any friendship either. And Ajay replied, saying, ‘Of course, tere liye kar lunga main’.

I’m taking my sister for granted for now but when I get married I’ll definitely have to up my game. It can have an impact on you, sure. "I have never cooked in my life. Being recognised by your country is a very significant thing for anyone. I would say, in fact, that not only every actor but every Indian works towards being recognised by the government at some point in their lives. I feel that there is a certain sense of tolerance that we need to have towards people who make independent choices. If that counts as pressure then yes, I’ve had the chance to experience some. Wahi toh maza hai zindagi ka — that you can outdo people’s expectations because you believe in yourself. And doing dishes is definitely not a part of my skill set either,” he chuckles and opines, "People who make good homemakers are the ones who are capable of it. I’m not the most clean person. If I start cooking at home, meri behen ghar chhod ke chali jayegi!” he asserts. I am so caught up with work myself that I haven’t been able to help out.ON NATIONAL HONOURS Responding to a question about how much he values awards and what his take on national honours such as the Padma Shri received by Ajay Devgn is, Arjun avers, "I think Ajay sir has flown down to Delhi all the way from Bulgaria in the middle of his shoot schedule to receive this award, and that in itself is a statement on how important it is. And I’m always either in a hurry or in a zone where I can be extremely lazy. "

"Wrapping food in newspapers is an unhealthy practice and the consumption of such food is injurious to health, even if the food has been cooked hygienically," The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) said in an advisory.

Suitable steps need to be taken to restrict control and use of newspapers for packing food material.Older people, teenagers, children and people with compromised vital organs and immune systems are at a greater risk of acquiring cancer-related health complications, if they are exposed to food packed in such material.Beside chemical contaminants, presence of pathogenic microorganisms in used newspapers also pose potential risk to human health, according to the advisory.Printing inks may also contain harmful colours, pigments, binders, additives and preservatives.

This comes after Union Minister of Health and Family Welfare J P Nadda had directed FSSAI to issue an advisory restricting the use of newspapers as food packaging material.Foods contaminated by newspaper ink raise serious health concerns since the ink contains multiple bioactive materials with known negative health effects, the advisory said.There is an urgent need to discourage the use of newspaper as food packaging material by creating awareness among businesses, especially unorganised food business operators and consumers on its harmful effects.Newspapers should not be used to wrap, cover and serve food or to absorb excess oil from fried food.

Newspapers and paper or cardboard boxes made of recycled paper may be contaminated with metallic contaminants, mineral oils and harmful chemicals like the phthalates Waffle biscuit machine Factory which can cause digestive problems and also lead to severe toxicity.The FSSAI has directed Commissioners of Food Safety of all States/Union Territories to initiate systematic campaigns for generating awareness among all the stakeholders to discourage the use of newspapers for packing, serving and storing food items. end-of Tags: health, hygiene, food poisoning Related Stories‘Food poisoning not caused by ISKCON meal’Ads for junk food banned on British kid's channelsEating food wrapped in newspapers can invite cancer, says FSSAI.New Delhi: Using newspapers to pack or serve food - a common practice among street vendors - is a safety hazard, according to the countryfood regulatory body which has warned that consumers are slowly being poisoned by cancer-causing agents and microbes

A better idea would be to supply the vendors low-cost biodegradable material to serve the food in.Gastrointestinal diseases such as hepatitis A, typhoid and E.coli infections can spread through consumption of street food and so itimportant for vendors to maintain hygiene and for customers to be aware and cautious.

As long as the food is fresh, stored safely, handled hygienically and disposed of appropriately, it can be consumed. Plastics and newspapers may not meet safety standards as they can release toxins into the food. Also, raw meat should not be stored along with cooked food as it can be contaminated.A dedicated garbage collection method with segregation will help too as improper disposal leads to breeding of flies and rodents.The government could come out with a scheme to train street vendors and give them a certificate and also encourage and monitor hygienic practices among them. end-of Tags: street food, hepatitis a.

Those who eat street food should bear in mind that it is safer when piping hot and that smaller chunks are better as their centre also cooks well.Work surfaces, cutlery, and vessels should be cleaned regularly with soap and water and dried in the sunlight. Adequate public water supply will help the vendors wash their hands after using the toilet and before handling the food and to wash the ingredients as well besides providing quality drinking water to their customers. In India, the issue of food hygiene can be addressed with a few interventions. This is more acceptable than a corporate agenda to evict the street vendors. It is also better to avoid ice used Rotate type wafer roll machine Manufacturers by the vendor and cut fruit stored in the open.

They should make sure there are no flies, insects and rodents around the eating area, that the person preparing the food is not coughing, that his or her nails are cut and hair, groomed and that the cooked food and ingredients are covered. All food handlers should avoid preparing food if they suffer from gastrointestinal disease and must undergo regular deworming, clip their nails, wash their hands frequently and cover their hair with a plastic wrap. Since inadequate reheating can make food unsafe, street food should preferably be freshly prepared in small quantities.The primary concern around food sold on the streets is hygiene.To work towards more hygienic street food, community facilities like storage spaces for degradable foodstuff (community fridges), public toilets, and dedicated areas on streets for vending of food make good investments.The method of serving the food is also important

Even Western science is beginning to realise what ayurveda understood 5,000 years ago — that the body is not a machine, and food is not fuel that runs the machine on Newtonian laws of mass and motion. This is the agriculture that has spread across the world as organic agriculture through Albert Howard’s classic An Agricultural Testament.The gut is increasing being referred to as the second brain. Intelligence is not localised in the brain.

It has its own nervous system — which is being referred to as the enteric nervous system — or ENS, with 50-100 million nerve cells. When food is diverse and chemical-free it creates health.Eating is a conversation between the soil, plants, cells in our gut, and the cells in our food, and between our gut and brain.Industrialisation and globalisation of food systems is driven by chemical and pharmaceutical corporations, leading to an agrarian crisis, erosion of biodiversity in agriculture, increase in toxics in our food, the promotion of fast food and junk food and a disease epidemic. Biodiverse organic systems have the potential to feed two Indias and increase farmers’ incomes tenfold.All that is born is born of anna (food) indeed. end-of Tags: ayurveda, food, biodiversity. We have understood that the web of life is a food web.Our traditional agriculture recognised the importance of diversity.

To function in a healthy way, the gut micro biome needs a diverse diet, and a diverse diet needs diversity in our fields and gardens.Western science is now finding out the same. Agni in the digestive tract is a great transformer, creating emergent properties.No farmer should be committing suicide, no child should be hungry, there should be no epidemic of diabetes, cancers and cardiovascular problems in our biodiversity-rich, knowledge-rich land.We used to eat more than 10,000 plant species as humans. Our bodies are intelligent organisms. A loss of diversity in our diet creates ill-health. Whatever exists on Earth is born of anna, and in the end merges into anna.Industrial monocultures using intensive chemical inputs produce nutritionally empty toxic commodities.Ayurveda as a science recognised that the digestive system is central to our health. There are 100,000 times more microbes in our gut than people on the planet.

As the book Mind Gut acknowledges: "For decades the mechanistic, militaristic disease model set the agenda for medical research. The cellular communication is the basis of health and well-being. And the intelligence in the soil, in the plants, in our bodies makes for health and well-being. Through the ecological sciences of agroecology and ayurveda our minds could catch up with the intelligence of the Earth, our bodies, its "doshas”, its cells, its microbes, which are trying to alert us to the dangers in our food and environment through the disease epidemic.As the research by Dr Eric Seralini shows the sophisticated intelligence in the complex ecosystem of our gut communicates with the food we eat. We might be ignorant about the links between food and health, but our cells know it. When we eat fresh and organic food the regulatory processes that ensure health are strengthened. Only 10 per cent of the cells in the human body are human cells.Loss of biodiversity in our fields and our diet over the last half-century with the spread of the Green Revolution/industrial agriculture is not just leading to an ecological crisis, also to a disease epidemic. Food is not "mass”, it is living; it is the source of life and health. Fortification is a continuation of the failed mechanistic paradigm of food and health.. Now we depend on 10 globally traded commodities. It is distributed.Most of the chronic diseases of our times are "food style” diseases.India has a rich and deep scientific and civilisational heritage of biodiversity, agroecology and ayurveda, which has sustained us for centuries.Navdanya is reversing this trend through creating community seed banks and practising biodiversity-based organic farming. When food is produced with toxic chemicals, processed and preserved with toxic chemicals it becomes a source of disease. Our body is more intelligent than the reductionist mechanical mind.The result has been an epidemic of more than 300,000 farmers suicides because of the debt due to dependence on costly chemicals and food, and a disease epidemic due to industrial and junk food. Adding one or two micronutrients through fortification to nutritionally empty food cannot compensate for the nutritional loss through loss of biodiversity in the diet.

The same industrial food system that is destroying the health of the planet is also destroying our health. Eating is an ecological act through which we communicate with the Earth, farmer, those who transform our food and our own bodies. Around 1,300 Indians die every day because of cancer.In the last few decades, our agriculture, food and health systems are being devastated by the assault of reductionist science, and industrial food systems based on toxic chemicals, combined with globalisation and free trade. The agrochemical industry and agribusiness, the junk food industry and the pharmaceutical industry profit while the nation gets sicker and poorer. Biodiverse ecological agriculture is good for the Earth, our farmers and our health.”Our gut is a micro biome, which contains 100 trillion microbes and 1,000 bacterial species with more than seven million genes. As long as you could fix the affected mechanical part, we thought the problem would be solved: there was no need to understand its ultimate cause… We are just beginning to realise that the gut, the microbes living in it — the gut micro biota the microbiome-constitute one of the major components of these regulatory systems.Eating is not a mechanical act through which we participate in an industrial food system. There are 360 bacterial genes in our body for every human gene.. These contribute to diseases of metabolic disorders, malnutrition and nutritional deficiencies. Eating is an intelligent act at the deepest cellular and microbial level. Taste receptors do not just lie in the tongue but are distributed throughout the Double-action and two-speed flour mixer gastrointestinal tract and are located on sensory nerve endings and hormones containing transducer cells in the gut wall.Health and disease begins in food, and food begins in biodiversity, agriculture and the soil.The ayurvedic science of food, nutrition and health recommends that we should eat food with six tastes — sweet, sour, salt, pungent, hot, bitter and astringent — in order to have a balanced diet.India is rapidly emerging as the epicentre of chronic diseases, including cancer, obesity and diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases, infertility, intestinal problems largely related to food.For 30 years Navdanya has been rejuvenating the biodiversity in our farms and food systems. This is the real answer to the ecological crises, farmers’ suicides and the disease epidemic we face. When we eat chemical food with toxics or nutritionally empty food, the communication leads to disease. Anna indeed is the first born amongst all beings; that is why anna is called sarvausadha, the medicine that relieves the bodily discomforts of all. Behind each taste are potentials for processes that create and sustain the self-regulating systems of our body

Dyson engineers tested the machine using a moveable 3D rig fitted with velocity probes to measure air force at different levels within the room. By expanding the degree of oscillation to 350⁰ degrees and using Air Multiplier Technology, the machine can project up to over 290 litres of purified air per second to every corner of the room. Our latest machine goes beyond standard tests.Diffused modeIn Diffused mode, a baffle in the amplifier moves to block the front aperture, diverting air through the rear of the annular loop at a 45⁰ angle. The North region in India, also witnesses extreme temperatures ranging from 50 degrees in summer to as low as 4 degrees or lower in winter.Lasers measure and identify fine particles.The machine automatically detects airborne particles and gases and simultaneously reports to the new LCD screen and Dyson Link app in real time, encouraging wellbeing and maintaining comfort levels in the home.Priced at Rs 52,900, the Dyson air purifier comes with a 2-year warranty period. As modern homes are becoming better sealed to comply with energy efficiency requirements, those pollutants can be trapped inside and air circulation can be compromised. Because the aperture is wider, this creates a more diffused airflow, uses less energy, generates less noise and purification effectiveness is maintained.Sam Bernard, Global Category Director, Environmental Control, says, "A good air purifier should sense, capture, project, heat and cool you. This variation in temperatures across the year and high pollution levels through the year makes Dyson Pure Hot+Cool air purifier an all year round technology that is suitable for all seasons. Dyson engineers go beyond industry tests and developed the POLAR test based on a bigger room size, with no added ceiling fan. In the kitchen and living room, cleaning products emit VOCs, dander from household pets, gas hobs and other cooking processes release particulate matter, fumes and odours. Activated carbon filters, which have been coated with Tris (Trishydroxymethylaminomethane) to increase their absorption efficiency, remove gases including NO2, formaldehyde and benzene.5 are in India, as per a recent WHO report.Engineered for real homesIndustry standard purifier tests are conducted in small chambers with a ceiling fan and only 1 sensor, which is not representative of actual living room environments. Potential sources include particulate matter from city pollution, VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) from hair spray and perfume, formaldehyde from foam furniture, China mooncake Machine Factory dust and allergens from carpets and benzene from scented candles.Fan modeThe Dyson Pure Hot+Cool air purifier features a unique new diffused airflow mode along with fan mode. Living in the era of the "indoor generation”, we are breathing in more pollutants indoors as we are spending up to 90% of our time behind closed doors.95% of particle pollution as small as 0. We insist on developing technology that works properly, without compromise on any functions.Dyson Link app: Available for iOS and Android, the Dyson Link app enables you to track indoor and outdoor pollution, temperature and humidity levels. You can also use it to control your machine and see how many hours of filter life you have left. Analysing the data across all nine sensors lets Dyson engineers ensure the Dyson Pure Hot+Cool air purifier delivers a uniform cleaning performance throughout the whole room.Capturing: Dyson engineers have incorporated 60% more HEPA media into a taller and deeper HEPA filter, and they’ve introduced three times more activated carbon, which can absorb gases, odours, domestic fumes and VOCs.Nine meters of a condensed and sealed borosilicate microfiber filter captures 99.Air pollution is a huge problem in India with 14 out of 15 most polluted cities in the world in terms of PM 2. As awareness rises, equal importance has been given to indoor air quality as we spend majority of our time indoors. Furthermore, the outdoor pollution can enter the home and when combined with indoor pollution sources like cooking fumes, cleaning products, pet dander and disintegrated faeces, can make indoor air quality equally or more harmful than outdoor air quality.With thermostat heat control, the machine automatically keeps your room at the target temperature. And the third sensor measures relative humidity and temperature.The new machines come with full Over the Air Update Capability (OTA) – meaning Dyson product owners can continue to get the most advanced Dyson software even after purchasing the machine. The heating function will switch to stand-by mode once the target is reached and will switch back on, once it senses a drop in the temperature.The bedroom, where we spend approximately one third of our lives can be a polluted place at home."Indoor generationEvery day we can breathe in up to 9,000 litres of air. This can cool you down in the summer while simultaneously purifying the room. Using this data, we made numerous iterations of our air apertures to make sure that our machine circulates the air effectively for whole and even room purification. To maintain airflow projection out the front of the machine, the baffle stays in place to deliver a powerful, frontward stream of purified air.Sensing: A new LCD shows the particles and gases the Dyson Pure Hot+Cool air purifier is automatically sensing in real time using a unique Dyson algorithm.Heating: To deliver better heating performance, Dyson engineers optimized the air amplifier geometry to balance room mixing and tested 80 different heating configurations of the heating element to find the most suitable combination. Indoor pollution can come from outside when we open the windows or doors, but it can also be produced from everyday activities in our home. Eight sensors in the corners of the room and one sensor in the centre collect air quality data every 5 seconds, detecting particles of indoor air pollution that are 300 times narrower than a human hair.1microns, including allergens, bacteria, pollen and mould spores. It heats and cools you quickly and effectively – while always purifying the whole room. Another sensor detects the amount of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), such as benzene and formaldehyde, and NO2 (Nitrogen Dioxide) present.Moreover, air pollution in India is a year-round problem, with pollution hitting its peak in winter months especially in northern part of th

We will never know if she was going to be the last OEM bread proofer victim or not.The outrage machine is here to stay because everyone is a part of it.Hang him in the street outside her home.Squeamishness prevents from really guessing where the rage could go next. Build a new stadium if there isn’t one big enough. Army Public School brought hangings back. And the problem is everyone’s a part of it.

Those gasping for sense may have wanted the court to handle the issue more responsibly, but that’s just clutching at straws.Not some child brought up in urban squalor or in rural misery.Look away now if squeamish or disinclined to hear more terrible stuff in the midst of already numbing tragedy and despicableness and opportunism. Whether we want to admit it or not.But the outrage machine is here to stay. Her eyes are clear and bright.By arrangement with Dawn end-of Tags: crimes against children, kasur case, psychopaths. At some point or the other. The one of her in a brightly coloured sweater with a pink jacket on top. Because at some point or the other, we’ve all been a part of it.But it was also that image of her alive.Everyone, absolutely everyone, climbed aboard the outrage machine because she was revealed to be a girl who could have been anyone’s daughter. The biggest one you can find. Especially when they think they are not.

The winter sun bounces of her brown hair. The girl in the photo looks like she could be from anyone’s home — your home. A picture of a confident young girl looking calmly into the camera. Even when they think they are not.Not a wretched Afghan child we’re used to seeing in bazaars and at traffic stops. We can only know that the suspect has now been caught.Because she looks like she could be their daughter. And only the woolliest of optimists can believe it’s about to get better.So the grotesque direction the outrage machine took after a suspect was arrested and his identity revealed shocked, but it should not have surprised. Not one of the countless kids of countless maids who have marched in and out of your home over the years.Then again, if you really think about it, if you were in his boots, better to let the outrage machine consume others than to suddenly find it firing back at you.

In some way or the other.And if you can understand that, that that single, grimly iconic photo helped build and sustain the rage and why it did, you may realise the next miserable, horrifying steps of the outrage machine were inevitable.Among psychopaths, outrage and clowns the rest of us appear to have been condemned to live.The picture that has become grimly iconic.Take insidious propaganda behind the scenes, add a clown on TV, throw in a political government to attack, and the outrage machine is reloaded and turned around and ready to go in an instant. Or maybe some of the standard methods borrowed from friendly, like-minded states.In the pink-jacket photo — of a confident, healthy, cheerful girl with light hair and light eyes and light skin — she looks like a girl who could be sleeping in your child’s bed. Hang him in a public square. And it was the troubling memory of something vaguely similar having floated out, miasma-like, from Kasur in the recent past.

The rage, the outrage, really kicked in and was sustained with that photo.All the details in the Kasur abhorrence contributed to the national revulsion. Maybe an Afghan Taliban-type hybrid violence. It was where she was found and the numbing image that rocketed around the country.Islamic State has demonstrated some of the more unhinged methods in recent years.So on and on it will go. Even, depressingly, in the little girl’s case.But the only thing the rage won’t do is go away. Hang him in a stadium. Perhaps without the public rage, the police would have finally done their job.Who, really, has both the power to stand up to the outrage machine and possibly a prayer of getting it to amp down? One does comes to mind, but the silence from that quarters has been deafening.The outrage machine is on fire and in overdrive. The outrage machine has already savaged the court, causing it to lurch in one direction and then the next. Once the machine was firing on all cylinders, some have been shocked at the bloodlust it has revealed.Is that — is that a tiny body, a little girl, tossed into the garbage and lying on a pile of rubble? The stomach churns every time.And now a few are shaking their heads at the inevitable politicisation of it all. So this time it had to be a hanging plus.You can almost hear a million grandmothers say Mashallah as they first see that picture and mothers and fathers everywhere nod in approval. The biggest one you can find.Because it’s not.It was what appeared to have been done to her.It was a little girl — society reacts viscerally to crimes against children, especially little girls. Not some child of another faith or coming from the lowest stratas with dirty or dangerous jobs. Her light complexion radiates health, her cheeks are full and her mouth maybe on the verge of a smile.But the rage — total rage — once activated was only going to go in ever more dangerous, more unhinged directions

The correct proportions, according to seasons and time of day, prepared with ingredients appropriate to one’s individual constitution, were meant to not only to fill the stomach, but also act as a tonic to nourish and rejuvenate body and mind. You took time over creating a meal, and the chef was no less an artist than the ones Waffle biscuit machine Manufacturers who painted or sculpted.

Food forms the central axis of our physical existence. Special stress was laid on one’s mental state at the time of eating. And if you have a busy life fulfilling the demands of career, home and family, this would hold true for lunch and dinner as well. Food eaten in haste or with negative feelings could cause disease, and when consumed with equanimity could result in a healthy body and mind. Your heart and mind felt sated and at ease.Food is not only an art in Ayurveda — it is medicine and its preparation is a science. In many cultures, the preparation and consumption of food was elevated to an art form.

Spend a few moments in silence, watching the breath enter and leave the body.com end-of. These days we rarely pay attention to what we eat, which is why an occasional food meditation is a good idea. When you rose from the table, not only had your hunger been appeased, but also your senses. Place a morsel in your mouth and savour the different flavours and textures that constitute it. In this way, by eating mindfully, we can truly experience food and allow it to nourish our body, mind and spirit. You are likelier to remember the news you read, which is what you were actually consuming at breakfast, not the food.

When you feel sufficiently aware of the moment, serve yourself carefully, taking only as much as you need. Allow yourself to feel hungry before you sit down to eat.Do you remember what you ate for breakfast today Not just the food items, but also their individual tastes and textures, their aromas and appearances If you are like me, who invariably has her nose in some reading material at breakfast, you would not remember any of these things.In India, further texture was added to food by proclaiming "annam brahmeti”, where food is an aspect of brahman, Supreme Consciousness. A well-prepared meal required leisure to partake of, and the company of loved ones. Observe the food on your plate, the consistency of the dal, the whiteness of the rice, the colours of the salad. These have also been described as koshas or sheaths that collectively form the individual, and within which dwells the atman. The Taittiriya Upanishad describes five aspects of brahman that we have access to in our being — annam or food, prana or life, manas or mind, vijnana or wisdom, and ananda or bliss.Swati Chopra writes on spirituality and mindfulness.

"My model of a time machine uses the curved space-time to bend time into a circle for the passengers, not in a straight line. "While is it mathematically feasible, it is not yet possible to build a space-time machine because we need materials - which we call exotic matter - to bend space-time in these impossible ways, but they have yet to be discovered," he said. More than 100 years later, the LIGO Scientific Collaboration - an international team of physics institutes and research groups - announced the detection of gravitational waves generated by colliding black holes billions of lightyears away, confirming Einsteintheory. The four dimensions should be imagined simultaneously, where different directions are connected, as a space-time continuum.

"People think of time travel as something as fiction. That circle takes us back in time," he said. There is evidence showing the closer to a black hole we get, time moves slower," said Tippett. And we tend to think itnot possible because we don't actually do it.Using Einsteintheory, Tippett said that the curvature of space-time accounts for the curved orbits of the planets. "HG Wells popularised the term 'time machine' and he left people with the thought that an explorer would need a 'machine or special box' to actually accomplish time travel," Tippett said.The research was published in the journal Classical and Quantum Gravity. But, mathematically, it is possible," said Tippett.

While it is possible to describe this type of time travel using a mathematical equation, Tippett doubts that anyone will ever build a machine to make it work. "The time direction of the space-time surface also shows curvature.A US scientist has developed a mathematical model for a viable time machine - an advance that could bring stuff of popular science-fiction closer to reality. The division of space into three dimensions, with time in a separate dimension by itself, is incorrect, said Tippett. Ever since HG Wells published his book 'Time Machine' in 1885, people have been curious about time travel – and scientists have worked to solve or disprove the theory.In 1915, German scientist Albert Einstein announced his theory of general relativity, stating that gravitational fields are caused by distortions in the fabric of space and time. In "flat" space-time, planets and stars would move in straight lines. In the vicinity of a massive star, space-time geometry becomes curved and the straight trajectories of nearby planets will follow the curvature and bend around star

Taking the noble idea ahead, he has developed E-Dedko, which he says can be put together even by a child. With the help of the institute, he built a biogas plant at home in 2012. They say charity begins at home and that’s what happened here as well. It has big crushes, is completely automated and has control panels.Today, he supplies the plant from Gujarat to Goa. Costing `25,000 per plant, now it takes about 10-15 days to built 10 plants.Dedko in use at homeHowever, the machine brought its own challenges. I brought the parts and put them together. We also have a lot of trainer videos with it,” he adds. I decided something has to be done as it is causing a lot of environmental damage,” says Udeshi who started his research trying to find best means of sustainable living.

They use the gas to cook from 5 am to 2 pm every day,” he smiles."I started reading up on bio-technology, understood better what needs to be done, what bacteria is sensitive to, how to organise the structure well so it performs better,” he lists, adding, "I made a whole new design and shrunk it to the size of a washing machine and in this machine, temperature could China Automatic Cookie Making Machine Factory be controlled. The 40-year-old started composting at home but didn’t succeed. Almost 30-40 per cent of cooking in Udeshi’s home is done on the biogas generated by Dedko. He began reading more about generating organic fuel and soon Udeshi had his plan ready to make the second attempt.A smelly encounter to an over-flowing dumpster during a walk urged city-based mec]hanical engineer Dr Kabir Udeshi to do his bit for a healthy environment. Then I searched for other options like anaerobic digester — biogas,” he shares. So, we decided to make it in a way that anybody can accommodate. "I saw a dumpster with garbage over flowing and it felt wrong. The time investment is not more than five minutes a day and it can take upto 2 kg waste per day,” he explains. Since then, the machine has been running well in my house. At the same time, the machine also produces organic fertiliser.Udeshi’s search landed him at Appropriate Rural Technology Institute (ARTI) in Pune. The gas generated is stored in a balloon like structure from where it is used for cooking.

"They gave me instruction on how to build a biogas plant.An engineer with a PhD from the University of Michigan, he initially manufactured industrial combustion equipment making him realise the hazardous affect of chemical fertilizers. They even sent me parts that I couldn’t find. "It is a DIY kit.Besides homes, a larger version of Dedko, called Rhino, has been installed at the Holy Family Hospital & Medical Research Center in Bandra. Called Dedko –meaning frog in Gujarati, it took Udeshi about two months to build his first plant. The gas is compressed and stored in cylinders.”Soon, the word spread and he had people asking him to make one for them, urging him to manufacture the machine on a larger scale.

That worked and there was no smell. After that, it becomes like a paste and you put it in the machine. "The hospital generates 150 kg of waste every day. In the city, people from Thane, Mulund, Bandra, Santa Cruz, Dadar, Shiaji Park to Worli are cooking on the gas generated by Dedko. We will launch in a month or so. "It will be as common as that,” he concludes.Rhino Digester installed at Holy Family Hospital, Bandra"To start with I didn’t want to send any of my organic waste out of the house. end-of Tags: biogas plants, arti. Once it is full, we add a little water and just turn it so the waste gets crushed. It would shut down in winters and remained exposed for mosquitoes to breed, forcing the nature-lover to yearn for a better machine. It takes about 30 seconds just to turn it. It was a big plant, 6 feet in diameter and 6 feet in height,” recalls Udeshi. We have people calling us nationally and internationally asking for this machine. I started composting but that got smelly and messy really quickly."There is a jar that is filled with organic waste.Just how we have toilets on the roads, Udeshi hopes in the times to come there will be waste converting machine everywhere
