Abstract: The following reports a Discovery made in nature, particularly human nature. Invalidating the theory of evolution of species, the researchers name Intellect, which we used to address as God, or the supernatural, as being responsible for the living worlds diversity. Just as it was discovered a long time ago that the Earth was not flat, this discovery reveals that humans were engineered or, to use widely accepted terminology, arrived by the process of intelligent design.

BIOTECHNOLOGY is one of the most important applied interdisciplinary sciences of the 21st century. It is the trusted area that enables us to find the beneficial way of life. It was given BT (Biotechnology) for Bharat tomorrow, but the tomorrow has come and is now called as Bharat Today.

Buying your first astronomical telescope is such a great experience. Going home and setting up the astronomy telescope leaves us sometimes wondering what is missing. We soon may find that we have a great instrument, but no great way of using the power of out first astronomical telescope.

Fungi are prominent sources of pharmaceuticals and are used in many industrial fermentative processes, such as the production of enzymes, vitamins, pigments, lipids, glycolipids, polysaccharides and polyhydric alcohols.
During the past 50 years, several major advancements in medicine came from lower organisms such as molds, yeasts and the other divers fungi. Fungi are extremely useful in making high value products like mycoproteins and acts as plant growth promoters and disease suppressor. Fungal secondary metabolites are important to our health and nutrition and have tremendous economic impact. In addition to this, fungi are extremely useful in carrying out biotransformation processes. Recombinant DNA technology, which includes yeasts and other fungi as hosts, has markedly increased market for microbial enzymes.
Today, fungal biotechnology is a major participant in the global industry due to its mind blowing potential.

Nanobiotechnology is a life-saving innovation that has come as a boon to mankind. It involves the creation and use of materials and devices at the level of molecules and atoms for the development of Nanomedicine, Nanosensors, Nanofluidics and Nanofabrics. It is a valuable contribution of the profound research by scientists and engineers to create new systems with novel functionalities.

For many people there first sky telescope happens to be a Tasco planetary telescope. A Tasco planetary telescope may not be the best planetary telescope on the market, however, it has allowed people easy entry into the hobby of astronomy and looking at the stars and other space objects.

With the way the energy crisis is growing, soon the fossil fuels that we rely on will be gone or so overpriced, that very few people will be able to afford it. Researchers have been creating new and innovating ways to create energy out of the natural resources the Mother Nature provides. Even though the wind has been a source of power for hundreds of years, it is not until recent decades that it was considered on a large scale.

Before Galileo turned his telescope toward the night sky the act of astronomy was pretty much an astrological pursuit where objects and motions of object in the sky were explained using ancient and archaic understandings of the universe and how it works.

Very less has been investigated about ancient megalithic culture of Kutch during the pre Harappan and Harappan times. Few known places have been investigated some of them are Goniasar , Juni Rayan, Zura Kotadi, Guntali Desalpar, Meghpar Khander vari wadi, Todio timbo, Sarli Tombo, Juna Kotada near Roha and Dholavira. But very little work has been done on the subject and the places. One of such an outstanding place is Jangania near NALIYA in Abadasa, where graves are specifically shaped.

Many geologist ask first question what is JUMBU DWIP? AND WHERE IS IT? so answer is in Sanskrit language and in Vedas as Indian continental plate is separated form Gondwanaland land, Gondwanaland land means JUMBU DWIP. so it is said so "JUMBU DWIPe, BHARAT KHNDe" which means BHARAT KHAND (geological name Indian continental plate). which is PART of JUMBU DWIP - geological name Gondwanaland land).
But what's the point of discussing this with ritual sloks of Vedas and Shastras?

Many of us have visited Dholavira and seen water reservoir of the ancient time of Saraswati civilisation time.
But we do not see the actual irrigation channels of the water which brings the water to those reservoir nor the DAM area to elevate the water level of the river so water can travel through those channels to the reservoir with gravity force only.
But Thats the actual Beauty and the importance of those ANCIENT Architect of WATER Irrigation Engineering during the Ancient time of KUTCH

The salinity tolerance of 20 cultivars of berseem (Trifolium alexandrinum L.) was tested under varying salt stresses (3, 6, 7.2, 10, 12 and 14 dSm-1) during germination and early seedling stage. Germination was differentially affected at different salinity levels. Genotypes JB 1, JHB 04 2, SAIDI and WARDAN had shown minimum inhibition in % germination at 10, 12 and 14 dSm-1 while cultivars BL 10, UPB 110, FAHLI and JHB 05 2 had expressed maximum inhibition. Dry weight of shoot decreased with increase in salinity levels but significant reductions were obtained only at higher salinity levels (7.2 14 dSm-1). All values for SS, PR and SSI indicated positive correlations with that of NS of shoot dry weight. Perfect positive correlations (r = 1**, P = 0.01) were obtained between SSI and PR of shoot dry weight. Dry weight of root and seedling also declined with increase in salinity but significant reductions were noted at 6 14 dSm-1 in all cultivars tested. Seedling dry weight indicated that all genotypes registered significant reductions at 6 to 14 dSm-1. Correlation coefficient (r values) indicated strong positive correlation between SS & NS and perfect positive correlation was observed between SSI and PR for seedling dry weight. On the bases of SSI, SHSI and seedling dry weight cv. BL 22 and WARDAN have been proved to be tolerant while BL 10 and JHB 05 1 have been proved sensitive on the bases of SSI and SHSI. Cultivars HFB, MESCAVI, BB 2 and JHB 05 2 also proved as
sensitive on the bases of SSI and seedling dry weight.

In Greek language the sun is called Helios. It means that which is radiant and brilliant in nature. This radiance of the sun is but a manifestation of the intense infinite energy it harbors within its core being. It is because of this that life sustains on planet Earth. According to modern scientists that ball of brilliant light seen by us and is called the sun manifests certain movements. They in turn manifest as flames and black spots or sun spots.
