Solution to Ram Janmabhoomi - Babri Masjid Dispute




Its Ram Janmabhoomi Babri Masjid Institute of Medical Sciences or Ayodhya Institute of Medical Sciences. How about having a central state of the art medical college and hospital in place of the disputed site at Ayodhya. It has been 20 long years since we are wasting a lot of time, money, energy on this useless issue. Is it worth in this 21st century? Let's build a Ram Janmabhoomi Babri Masjid Institute of Medical Sciences or Ayodhya Institute of Medical Sciences and model it in the line of AIIMS, New Delhi.

What are your thoughts regarding this?

Cardiology Mnemonics



Defined in broad terms, a mnemonic is a device, procedure, or operation that is used to improve memory. Defined in narrow terms — and what is usually meant by the word — a mnemonic is a specific reconstruction of target content intended to tie new information more closely to the learner's existing knowledge base and, therefore, facilitate retrieval.

Mnemonics have been used for thousands of years. Having limited access to writing materials, the Ancient Greeks developed complex mnemonic systems for remembering stories, poems, plays and lectures. Many of the Ancient Greek techniques were revived in the Middle Ages, where they were sometimes associated with mysticism and the occult.

However, with the invention of the printing press these ancient arts became lost as more and more people relied — sometimes exclusively — on note-taking and on the printed page.

There are a variety of mnemonic techniques, including keywords, pegwords, acronyms, acrostics, loci methods, spelling mnemonics, phonetic mnemonics, number-sound mnemonics, and Japanese “Yodai” methods.
