Columbian colonisation

  I am talking about 2 islands situated in Caribbean sea.


These islands are politically part of Columbia,  these islands have distinct history and culture , that often leads to tensions with " colonists Columbia  ".


Here are the reasons  ---


1.  The native population are of African and British Protestant descent.


2.  But Republic of Columbia implemented policies to columbianise the islands.


3.  They started promoting Spanish, Roman Catholicism and mainland migration to solidify its claim against Nicaragua.


4.  People feel close to Nicaragua as they are just 150 km away but far from Columbia which is 750 km away  !!!!1


Islands SAN ANDRES and  PROVIDENTIA view these as " COLUMBIAN COLONIZATION  ".

Why do we snore ??

 Snoring happens  when air can't move smoothly through nose and throat when sleeping.


Airflow vibrates the soft tissues back there and that is the sound we hear when some one is snoring !!!



I will explain what happens   ----


1.  When we fall asleep, muscles in throat and tongue relax.


2.  But if this space gets too narrow, air has to squeeze through faster.


3. Faster air  =  more turbulence = more vibration 


4.  Several things make this space narrow 

         1.  Nasal congestion from cold and allergies 

        2.  Extra tissues from weight gain and large tonsils 

        3.  Tongue falling back because of sleeping on back.


Lying down on back makes the snoring to get louder !!!

Bheja Fry question

  Question 


All mobile numbers in India are 10 digits.

With 10 digit number, how many mobile subscribers can be supported at any time ??



Answer 


In a 10 digit number, each position can be filled by any of 10 digits ( 0 through 9  )


To find the total number, we multiply the number of possibilities for each position.


==>>   10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10 * 10

==>>   10  ^  10

==>>    10 billion    !!!



The mathematical answer is 10 billion.

But in India, we have prefix restrictions.

Mobile numbers must start with digits  9   8    7  or  6.


To find the total combination,


For the first digit, we have only 4 possibilities. They are 6  7  8  or  9.

For second digit to last digit, 10 possibilities each ( from  0  to   9  )


==>>    4  *   10  ^   9

==>>   4  billion  !!!

Which Indian city is known as City of Hundred islands ??

 The city of Hundred Islands is in Rajasthan   !!!


When we think of Rajasthan,  we often think about deserts, forts and rugged terrain.


But in the southernmost part of Rajasthan, a different picture emerges, one of green hills, flowing water and tiny islands scattered across river lake.


This is         BANSWARA     !!!!


The city got its name from how the Mahi river's backwaters spread out.


When the water fills the river basin, it breaks up into many small islands that dot the landscape like green dots on water  !!!


The pattern is especially striking in monsoon months.
