[Berlin (now Brunswick), Md. Pontoon bridge and ruins of the stone bridge across the Potomac (destroyed in 1861)] (LOC)

This October 1862 photo of the Potomack River at what is now called Brunswick, MD is from the amazing Civil War collection at the library of congress.

Here, at the city now known as Brunswick, MD but then called "Barry" and later "Berlin", are a pontoon bridge along with the ruins of a stone bridge across the Potomac. The stone structure was destroyed in 1861.

A. Gardner was the photographer.

Note the telegraph pole to left. The pontoon bridge was built by Union troops across the Potomac River as part of their military operations. This view was taken looking from Virginia towards the town.

The town is about 30 miles south of Antietam, and the photographer was in the area to document the main eastern theater of the war, Battle of Antietam, September-October 1862.

How does GPS Fleet Tracking work?
For the comprehensive GPS Tracking solution, we need three imperative components to complete the required circuit.
Tracking Device (Hardware) to receive signals from GPS Satellites GPS Trackers server to store data User Interface (Software) for the end-user
The device installed in the vehicle has a sim that provides the network(GPS+GSM) for receiving and releasing data. This device sends data to the central server which is then translated and represented in a comprehensible manner to the fleet managers through the software. 
The end result that appears on the app/web screen involves advanced level automation to simplify the complicated process.

As we continue to make advancements in science and technology, it is important to consider the ethical implications of our actions. While the pursuit of knowledge is admirable, we must also consider the potential consequences of our research.

One area where this is particularly relevant is in genetic engineering. While the ability to manipulate DNA has the potential to cure diseases and improve human health, it also raises concerns about the possibility of creating "designer babies" or altering traits that are deemed undesirable.

Another area where ethics come into play is in animal testing. While it is necessary for scientific research, we must ensure that animals are treated ethically and that their suffering is minimized as much as possible.

Additionally, we must consider the impact of our scientific advancements on the environment. Climate change and pollution are major issues facing our planet, and it is important for scientists to consider how their research may contribute to these problems or help find solutions.

In conclusion, while scientific progress is important, it must be balanced with ethical considerations. As scientists, we have a responsibility to ensure that our work benefits society while minimizing harm to individuals and the environment.

Kewal Kapoor Dil Se said...

Legend has it that Tulsidas went to the banks of the river Yamuna in Varanasi (also known as Kashi) and contemplated intensely upon Lord Rama, reciting his name and praying fervently. He longed for a divine vision that would allow him to see and communicate with Lord Rama in a tangible way. One night, as he was absorbed in his devotion, he saw a child playing on the steps leading to the river. The child pointed out that instead of longing for a physical vision of Lord Rama, he should realize that Rama's divine presence can be experienced through his name.
