THE HOME OF FANTASY!

Mica is an example of sheet silicate minerals that can be employed in a number of different applications. The name for the mineral is understood to be derived from the Latin word micare, referring to its glittering appearance. India is understood to possess large amounts of the mineral. China also ranks high as a producer of mica for various purposes, and such countries as South Korea, Canada, and the United States also are sources of a healthy output.

These terms can be confusing because of how they are used. Technically, a cyclone (lower case) is ANY rotating low pressure system (rotating counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere, or clockwise in the southern hemisphere). Hurricanes, Typhoons and Cyclones (note upper case) are the same thing but are termed by where they exist. The tropical cyclone is called a hurricane (if sustained winds are at least 65 knots) over the Atlantic basin and the eastern Pacific Ocean, while over the western Pacific it is called a Typhoon. The same type of system is called a Cyclone over the Indian Ocean area (one recently struck Bangladesh) A tornado is another type of cyclone that is born in thunderstorms. In some cases, tropical cyclones can produce many tornadoes if conditions are right. Thanks to: My dear adviser, Rich.

That too will have a better speed than the expensive brand cars! But the cost of fuel will be less! It’s really unbelievable!     Five engineering students of BUET designed and manufactured the fuel-efficient car at a magnificent competition in Dhaka on 15 March this year. They contested in a creative event called ‘ECORUN’, jointly organized by BUET and JICA(Japan International Cooperation Agency) and stood first. They’re studying mechanical engineering and students of 4th year. Their names are- Nahiyan, Tausif, Yasin, Bakhtiyar and Shahrul.   These five young men are optimistic that thei...

An innovative idea Muttakin Rashid Alvi   We all know that innovative ideas can bring big changes. They’re doing the same for our beautiful country. One of them is the digital admission process.      Digital admission process was first implemented by Shahjalal University of Science & Technology in 2009. It has been successfully running since the introduction. It has been adapted by other universities including National University of Bangladesh. It’s considered as a milestone of digital innovation in the country. It allows a student to apply for a university through only two text messages. Even a single form isn’t required.        A lecturer at SUST said, “The only purpose to develop this app was save time and money. Secondly, the entire database is maintained online.”  SUST’S SMS based admission registration process is an epoch making event. It attracted everyone’s eyes for creating a digital Bangladesh.
