PIANO

                                                              PIANO   For many years, people have enjoyed the beauty and sound of a piano. The history of the piano has grown to be just as elegant as the music it creates. Starting out as a dream of having a new kind of instrument to fill the ears of music lovers, the piano was invented by harpsichord maker, Bartolomeo di Francesco Cristofori, in Italy, in 1709. However, many historians debate the exact date the harpsichord maker actually invented the piano. Even the layout of the first original piano looked different. While the natural keys were black, the accidental keys were white.  Cristofori’s invention of the piano was supposed to be an improvement to the harpsichord and clavichord. Both of these instruments looked like today’s modern piano. However, the harpsichord...

Mobile phone

Image
  Mobile phone A   mobile phone   (also known as a   hand phone ,   cell phone , or   cellular telephone [1] ) is a small portable   radio   telephone . Siemens  AX72. The mobile phone can be used to communicate over long distances without wires. It works by communicating with a nearby base station (also called a "mobile tower") which connects it to the main phone network. When moving, if the mobile phone gets too far away from the cell it is connected to, that cell sends a message to another cell to tell the new cell to take over the call. This is called a "hand off," and the call continues with the new cell the phone is connected to. The hand-off is done so well and carefully that the user will usually never even know that the call was transferred to another cell. As mobile phones became more popular, they began to cost less money, and more people could afford them. Monthly plans became available for rates as low as US$30 or US$40 a month. ...

SARADIYEL VILLAGE 

Image
                                SARADIYEL VILLAGE  Sura Saradiel, who lived in Utuwankanda as his stronghold, was a hero of the common people who lived in this country during the British colonial period.  What Saradiel did was to steal money from the rich people who lived at that time and distribute it to the poor people. That is why Saradiel is known as the "Robinhood of Sri Lanka". However, he was later arrested and sentenced to death.  Shortly after his execution, the governor sent a messenger ordering it to be revoked, but Saradiel was killed when the messenger arrived. A proud statue of Saradial can still be seen at Galigamuwa Junction.  Climbing is not difficult, as you can see the mountains clearly.  But it is wise to climb without making too much noise because there are wasps.   The other important thing is that the road near the top of the hill is very dangerous.

LOVE......❤️

LOVE......❤️ Having mutual love is significant for keeping up with any relationship for quite a while. Genuine love is always extremely valuable and selfless. The person who loves you will acknowledge you with no conditions and won’t expect you to be perfect. He/she will consistently attempt to keep you happy with all the methods he/she can. Parent and child relationship is the most grounded and remarkable case of love. They love their kid since birth to the world, and nothing can better likely express what caring affection it is. Also, the kid adores his parents similarly and has a sense of safety each time in their presence. Love for our grandparents and other older relative is remarkably helpful. Those are the ones who had helped us in learning new things in our adolescence. We can make them feel honored distinctly by rewarding them with love and care. They will consistently be with us in our troublesome times. Our siblings assume a critical job in molding our life. The elder one...

Helth & fitness 

Image
                  Helth & fitness  Health can be defined as a holistic way of the growth of the human body and mind. A healthy person’s body is in complete harmony with his mind. We can practice the art of health and wellness by keeping in mind that our bodies are made from living tissues. Those tissues require nutrition to grow, and the food we eat is directly responsible for the nutrients that reach our tissues. Keeping that in mind, we must understand the importance of a balanced meal.   A meal is balanced when it has all the components like carbohydrates, starch, fat, protein, and vitamins in an equal proportion. If the balance is disturbed, we can eat a lot of the same type of food. Even if something is good for our health, eating too much can have a negative impact. For example, even if vitamins are beneficial to our health, eating a lot of vitamins can convert the excess quantity into toxic substances. The perfect sign o...

Tulip

Image
                                        Tulip Tulip cultivation likely began in Persia(Iran) in the 10th century, and it eventually became a symbol of the Ottoman Empire. Tulips were introduced to the Western world by Augier Ghislain de Busbecq, the Viennese ambassador to Turkey, who wrote of seeing the plants in Edirne, Turkey, in 1551 and later sent some seeds to Austria. The arrival at Antwerp in 1562 of a cargo of tulip bulbs from Constantinople (now Istanbul) marked the beginning of the horticultural tulip industry in Europe.
