EID-AL-ADHA

Eid al-Adha (Arabic: عيد الأضحى‎ ‘Īdu l-’Aḍḥā) or "Festival of Sacrifice" or "Greater Eid" is an important religious holiday celebrated by Muslims worldwide to commemorate the willingness of Abraham (Ibrahim) to sacrifice his son Ishmael (Isma'il) as an act of obedience to God, before God intervened to provide him with a ram to sacrifice instead.[1] The meat is divided into three parts to be distributed to others. The family retains one third of the share, another third is given to relatives, friends and neighbors, and the other third is given to the poor & needy.

Eid al-Adha is the latter of two Eid festivals celebrated by Muslims, whose basis comes from Sura 2 (Al-Baqara) Ayah 196 in the Qur'an.[2] Like Eid ul-Fitr, Eid al-Adha begins with a Wajib prayer of two Raka'ah (units) followed by a sermon (khuṭbah).

The word "Eid" appears in Sura al-Mai'da ("The Table Spread," Chapter 5) of the Qur'an, meaning 'solemn festival'.[3]

Elizabeth Fry

By Jannat Panhwar Class 7^th The Wendy School Karachi

Elizabeth Fry (Born 21 May 1780 died 12 October 1845) was an English prison reformer, social reformer and, as a Quaker, a Christian philanthropist.

Fry was a major driving force behind new legislation to make the treatment of prisoners more humane, and she was supported in her efforts by the reigning monarch. Since 2001, she has been depicted on the Bank of England £5 note.

Birth and family background

Elizabeth Gurney was born in Gurney Court England to a Quaker family. Her family home as a child was Her father, John Gurney, was a partner in Gurney's bank. Her mother, Catherine, was a part of the Barclay family, who were among the founders of Barclays Bank. Her mother died when Elizabeth was only twelve years old. As one of the oldest girls in the family, Elizabeth was partly responsible for the care and training of the younger children, including her brother Joseph John Gurney. she had two children

Awakening of social concern

At the age of 18, young Elizabeth was deeply moved by the preaching of William Savery, an American Quaker. Motivated by his words, she took an interest in the poor, the sick, and the prisoners. She collected old clothes for the poor, visited those who were sick in her neighbourhood, and started a Sunday school in the summer house to teach children to read.

She met Joseph Fry (1777 – 1861), a banker and also a Quaker, when she was twenty years old. They married on August 19 1800 at the Norwich Goat Lane Friends Meeting House and moved to St Mildred's Court in the City of London. They had eight children in all[2] born between 1801 and 1822, including Katherine Fry (1801–1886), who wrote a History of the Parishes of East and West Ham (1888). Elizabeth Fry was recorded as a Minister of the Religious Society of Friends in 1811.

Joseph and Elizabeth Fry lived in Plashet House in East Ham between 1809 and 1829, then moved to Upton Lane in Forest Gate. One of their daughters, called Betsy, died at the age of five.

Prison work

Prompted by a family friend, Stephen Grellet, Fry visited Newgate prison. The conditions she saw there horrified her. The women's section was overcrowded with women and children, some of whom had not even received a trial. They did their own cooking and washing in the small cells in which they slept on straw. Elizabeth Fry often as in said in the book of prisons volume three that she actually stayed the nights in some of the prisons and invited nobility to come and stay and see the conditions they lived in.

She returned the following day with food and clothes for some of the prisoners. She was unable to further her work for nearly 4 years because of difficulties within the Fry family, including financial difficulties in the Fry bank. Fry returned in 1816 and was eventually able to find a prison school for the children who were imprisoned with their parents. She began a system of supervision and required the women to sew and to read the Bible. In 1817 she helped found the Association for the Reformation of the Female Prisoners in Newgate. This led to the eventual creation of the British Ladies' Society for Promoting the Reformation of Female Prisoners, widely described by biographers and historians as constituting the first "nationwide" women's organization in Britain.

Thomas Fowell Buxton, Fry's brother-in-law, was elected to Parliament for Weymouth and began to promote her work among his fellow MPs. In 1818 Fry gave evidence to a House of Commons committee on the conditions prevalent in British prisons, becoming the first woman to present evidence in Parliament.

Other humanitarian work

Elizabeth Fry also helped the homeless, establishing a "nightly shelter" in London after seeing the body of a young boy in the winter of 1819/1820. In 1824, during a visit to Brighton, she instituted the Brighton District Visiting Society. The society arranged for volunteers to visit the homes of the poor and provide help and comfort to them. The plan was successful and was duplicated in other districts and towns across Britain.

After her husband went bankrupt in 1828, Fry's brother became her business manager and benefactor. Thanks to him her work went on and expanded.

In 1840 Fry opened a training school for nurses. Her programmer inspired Florence Nightingale, who took a team of Fry's nurses to assist wounded soldiers in the Crimean War.

Death

Elizabeth Fry died from a stroke in Ramsgate, England, on 12 October 1845. Her remains were buried in the Friends' burial ground at Barking. Until this occasion, the Seamen of the Ramsgate Coast Guard flew their flag at half mast in respect of Mrs Fry; a practice reserved officially for the death of a ruling monarch.[3] Over a thousand people stood in silence during the burial.

Memorials

Two plaques commemorate her birthplace, at Smith Court, off Magdalen Street, Norwich, and her childhood home of Earlham Hall. There is also an Elizabeth Fry Road in Earlham. There is another plaque at St. Mildred's Court, City of London, where she lived when she was first married, which in turn is commemorated in St. Mildred's Road in Earlham.

On the campus of The University of East Anglia there is a modern building named in her honour, it is home to the university's School of Social Work and Psychology and is used many other schools for general teaching.

Her resting place at the former Society of Friends Burial Ground, off Whiting Avenue in Barking, Essex, was restored and on 8 October 2003, a new commemorative plinth made of marble was officially unveiled.

Elizabeth Fry is also depicted on two panels of the Quaker Tapestry, panels E5 and E6.

In February 2007 a new plaque was placed in her honour on the Friends Meeting House in Upper Goat Lane, Norwich.

The Canadian Association of Elizabeth Fry Societies honours her memory by advocating for women who are in the criminal justice system. They also celebrate and promote a National Elizabeth Fry Week in Canada each May.

Since 2001 Fry has been depicted on the reverse of £5 notes issued by the Bank of England. She is shown reading to prisoners at Newgate Prison. The design also incorporates a key, representing the key to the prison which was awarded to Fry in recognition of her work.

There is an Elizabeth Fry Ward in Scarborough Hospital in North Yorkshire, United Kingdom.

In the Lady Chapel of mancester's Anglican Cathedral one of the portrait windows of Noble Women on the West wall of the Chapel features Elizabeth Fry.

On the former British Television series Top of the pops there is a statue of Elizabeth Fry in the lobby of the Old Bailey set.

AMAZON KINDLE

Amazon Kindle is an e-book reader. More precisely, it is a software and hardware platform developed by Amazon.com (subsidiaryLab126) for the rendering and displaying of e-books and other digital media.^[1] Four hardware devices, known as "Kindle", "Kindle 2", a third generation device simply called the "Kindle", and "Kindle DX" support this platform. However, most reviewers, customers and press companies refer to this latest generation Kindle as the "Kindle 3".^{[2][3][4][5][6]} Kindle software applications exist for Microsoft Windows,iOS, BlackBerry, Mac OS X (10.5 onwards) and Android^[7]. Amazon's first hardware device, the Kindle First Generation, was released only in the United States on November 19, 2007. The latest hardware device, the 3rd generation Kindle with 3G support for use in 100 countries and territories, was announced on July 28, 2010.^[8]

The Kindle hardware devices use an E Ink brand electronic paper display that features 16 shades of gray. Early Kindles wirelessly downloaded content over Amazon's Whispernet using the Sprint EVDO network in the USA. Newer Kindle 2 devices use AT&T's network and its roaming partners for international wireless access.^[9] The Kindle hardware device is used without a computer connection, and Amazon Whispernet is accessible without any monthly fee or wireless subscription.^[10] All Kindle models (except the Kindle Wi-Fi) provide free access to the Internet in the U.S. over cellular networks, although fees can be incurred for the delivery of periodicals and other content when roaming internationally beyond the customer's home country. The Kindle does not preserve the print edition page numbers used for creating and verifying sources, references and citations.^[11]

Through a technology called "Whispersync", customers can synchronize reading progress, bookmarks and other information across Kindle hardware devices and other mobile devices.^[12][13]

LAND POLLUTION

The major increase in the concentration of population in cities, along with the internal combustion engine, led to the increased number of roads and all the infrastructure that goes with them.

As the demand for food has grown exponentially with the increase of the human population, there is an increase in field size and mechanization. The increase in field size makes it economically viable for the farmer but results in loss of person and shelter for wildlife, as hedgerows and copses disappear. When crops are harvested, the naked soil is left open to wind after it has been compacted by heavy machinery. Another consequence of more intensive agriculture is the move to monoculture. This is unnatural, will deplete the soil of nutrients, allows diseases and pests to spread and, as it happens, it quickly exhausts all the natural resources in an area, causing the introduction of chemical fertilizers and foreign substances to the soil that poisons it.

AIR POLLUTION

An air pollutant is known as a substance in the air that can cause harm to humans and the environment. Pollutants can be in the form of solid particles, liquid droplets, or gases. In addition, they may be natural or man-made.^[2]

Pollutants can be classified as either primary or secondary. Usually, primary pollutants are substances directly emitted from a process, such as ash from a volcanic eruption, the carbon monoxide gas from a motor vehicle exhaust or sulfur dioxide released from factories.

Secondary pollutants are not emitted directly. Rather, they form in the air when primary pollutants react or interact. An important example of a secondary pollutant is ground level ozone — one of the many secondary pollutants that make up photochemical smog.

Note that some pollutants may be both primary and secondary: that is, they are both emitted directly and formed from other primary pollutants.

About 4 percent of deaths in the United States can be attributed to air pollution, according to the Environmental Science Engineering Program at the Harvard School of Public Health.

The new research in science artificial organs

I am amazed to hear the news that the scientists can now produce organs in laboratory wow..now if some one has a problem in his lungs he/she can go to a laboratory and get a new lung un believeable--

It seems that science is growing but we in Pakistan do not know much about it I hope when I will grow up things will be different and people here will also be able to understand such new things.

AMAZING NEWS:SCIENTISTS GREW A RAT LUNG IN LABORTRY

The lung stayed in place only for an hour or two, as the scientists measured it exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide much like a regular lung, but also spotted some problems that will take more research to fix.

Still, the work is a step in the science fiction-sounding hunt for ways to regenerate damaged lungs, although lead researcher Dr. Laura Niklason cautions that it may be 20 or 25 years before a build-a-new-organ approach is ready for people.

The work was reported online Thursday in the journal Science. Nearly 400,000 people die of lung diseases each year in the US alone, according to the American Lung Association, and lung transplants are far too rare to offer much help.

But how to replicate these spongy organs? Niklason's team stripped an adult rat's lung down to its basic structural support system, its scaffolding, to see if it is possible to rebuild rather than starting completely from scratch.

To burn more fat, skip breakfast before Excercise

LONDON: Running on empty may not be such a bad idea after all.


Though many athletes eat before training, some scientists say that if you really want to get rid of more fat, you should skip the pre-workout snack.



Several studies suggest exercising while your body is low on food may be a good way to trim excess fat. In a recent paper, European researchers found that cyclists who trained without eating burned significantly more fat than their counterparts who ate.



Muscles usually get their energy from carbohydrates, which is why athletes like Lance Armstrong and Michael Phelps scarf down enormous amounts of food before a race. But if you haven't eaten before exercising, your body doesn't have many carbohydrates in reserve. That forces it to burn fat instead, scientists say.



''When you exercise (after fasting), your adrenalin is high and your insulin is low,'' said Peter Hespel, a professor of exercise physiology at the University of Leuven in Belgium.



''That ratio is favorable for your muscles to oxidize (break down) more fatty acids.'' Hespel said that people who exercise without having eaten burn more fat than they would if they had grabbed a bite beforehand.



In a study published in April, researchers at the University of Birmingham and elsewhere assigned seven people to cycle three days a week, followed by an intense session an hour later without eating. Another seven people followed the same regime, without the instruction to fast.



Though members of the group that didn't eat performed worse on the intensive training, they burned a higher proportion of fat to carbohydrates than the group that ate. The results were published by Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, the journal of the American College of Sports Medicine.



In a 2008 study, Hespel and colleagues tested the effects on men who did endurance training without eating versus those who ate. In the athletes who hadn't eaten, the researchers found a spike in the amount of proteins needed to process fat, meaning their bodies had been primed through fasting to burn more fat.



Hespel recommends people do this kind of training before breakfast, since eating carbohydrates interrupts the process of metabolizing fat for about six hours afterward.



Though he and colleagues have primarily studied the effects of exercising without eating in young, healthy people, he thinks the method could also help people with problems like diabetes.



Because exercising without eating produces muscles that are better at absorbing glucose - which is important for preventing diabetes - Hespel theorized the strategy would also help diabetics control their insulin levels.



Other experts said that even though people may burn more fat this way, it is mostly fat within the muscles that will be lost and won't make a big difference to people trying to lose weight.



''When you exercise (without eating), fat is broken down more quickly in the muscle,'' said Andrew Greenberg, director of the Obesity and Metabolism Laboratory at Tufts University.



''You may enhance how you burn the fat in the muscles, but it doesn't affect your overall body fat,'' Greenberg said. He said more intense exercise may prompt the body to burn more fatty acids in other regions of the body, but that a lot of training would be required to see a big difference.



For recreational athletes interested in maximizing their exercise regimen, some experts recommend a regular training session where you deliberately do not eat beforehand.



''Science is finally catching up with what smart runners have always known,'' said Ron Maughan, a professor of sport, exercise and health sciences at Loughborough University in Britain.



''If you have a long, hard run without breakfast once a week, that hard run will train you to burn fat,'' he said. ''And for the rest of the week, have plenty of carbohydrates so you can train hard.''



Maughan cautioned against doing too much exercise on an empty stomach. ''That might help you get very good at burning fat, but you won't be very good at whatever exercise it is you're doing,'' he said. ''Without enough fuel, you won't get the intensity of training you need to get improvements.''



Others were more skeptical and said people shouldn't exercise without having at least a small snack first.



''I think it's actually a pretty bad idea,'' said Dr. Alexis Chiang Colvin, a sports medicine expert at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York who has worked with professional football and hockey teams.



''If your blood sugar is low, you could wind up getting dizzy and you might not be able to exercise as well as if you were well-nourished,'' she said.



Colvin recommended having something small like a banana before training. She also warned the strategy might make people more prone to injury and that eating was important so the body would have enough nutrients to recover from a bout of exercise.



Hespel acknowledged the method wasn't for everybody and that aside from the pain of struggling through an exercise session while hungry, there are other potential pitfalls.



"When you postpone breakfast to exercise, it is possible you might eat more afterwards," he said. "People exercising (without eating) need to respect all the normal strategies of weight control like not overeating."



Daniel Kobbina, a personal trainer who also runs a martial arts school in London, said the method requires discipline — but it works.



"If you train on an empty stomach, you'll see that six-pack a lot sooner," he said.
