In the Indian subcontinent, various herbs and their extracts have been used as shampoos since ancient times. They used different saps for various shampoo types.   Cleansing with hair and body massage during one's daily bath was a vulgarity of early colonial traders in India. When they returned to Europe, they introduced the newly learned habits in the 1760s, including the hair treatment and chapayati change to the shampoo in Europa.    Sake Dean Mahomed, an Indian traveler, surgeon, and entrepreneur, is credited with introducing the practice of champooi or "shampooing" to Britain. In 1814, with his Irish wife Jane Daly, Mahomed opened the first commercial "shampooing" vapor masseur bath in England in Brighton. He described the treatment in a local paper as "The Indian Medicated Vapour Bath (a type of Turkish bath), a cure to many diseases and giving full relief when everything fails; particularly Rheumatic and paralytic, gout, stiff joints, old sprains, lam

Ajay Bhatt was born in India in 1957. Bhatt completed his graduation from the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, India. He attained his master's degree from The City University of New York, USA. Soon after completing his master's, he joined Intel as a senior staff architect.    In fact, USB technology didn't make money for anyone. It's because Intel, who owns all patents to the technology as the first backer of Bhatt's USB idea, decided to make it open and royalty-free from the beginning. USB is now considered the de facto standard for connecting different devices. Still, it was met with a lukewarm response when Bhatt first pitched the idea to tech companies, including Apple and Microsoft, in the early '90s.   It was basically creating a single connector that bypassed the need for a separate floppy disk or driver to install each application. But companies had an inherent fear of breaking the existing compatibility functions, Bhatt said, and only Intel, th

According to available ancient references, Takshashila was an early Buddhist learning center. Scholars date back this ancient university to the 5th or the 6th century BC.   At ancient Takshashila University, more than 10,500 students (two out of three applicants rejected) came from India and outside (Babylonia-now Iraq, Greece, Egypt, Syria, Asia Minor-now Turkey, Arabia, and China) to be taught by nearly 2000 master teachers.   The university became a prominent center of learning at least several centuries before Christ and maintained its reputation until the city's destruction in the 5th century AD.

Aryabhata, also called Aryabhata I or Aryabhata the Elder (born 476, possibly in Ashmaka or Kusumapura, India), was an astronomer and the earliest Indian mathematician. His work and history are available to modern scholars. He lived in Kusumapura, where he composed at least two works, Aryabhatiya (499) and the now lost Aryabhatasiddhanta.   Aryabhata gave the world the digit "0" (zero), for which he became immortal. His book, the Aryabhatiya, presented astronomical and mathematical theories in which the Earth was taken to be spinning on its axis, and the periods of the planets were given with respect to the sun (in other words, it was heliocentric). There was also a difference in some astronomical parameters. Aryabhata also gave an accurate approximation for Pi.   The place-value system, first seen in the 3rd-century Bakhshali Manuscript, was clearly in place in his work. While he did not use a symbol for zero, the French mathematician Georges Ifrah argues that zero-knowledge

Sanskrit is regarded as the ancient language in Hinduism. It was used as a means of communication and dialogue by the Hindu Celestial Gods and then by the Indo-Aryans. Sanskrit is also widely used in Jainism, Buddhism, and Sikhism. The term 'Sanskrit' is derived from the conjoining of the prefix 'Sam,' meaning 'samyak,' which indicates 'entirely,' and 'krit,' which indicates 'done.' Thus, the name indicates perfectly or entirely done in terms of communication, reading, hearing, and the use of vocabulary to transcend and express emotion. An extraordinarily complex language with a vast vocabulary, it is still widely used today to read sacred texts and hymns.   The Sanskrit language was termed as Deva-Vani ('Deva' Gods - 'Vani' language) as it was believed to have been generated by the god Brahma who passed it to the Rishis (sages) living in celestial abodes, who then communicated the same to their earthly disciples from wher

In the early 1960s, Dr. Vikram Sarabhai selected a small fishing village called Thumba in Trivandrum as the ideal location for a rocket launching station. And the spot he had zeroed in as a potential launch site housed a St. Mary Magdalene church. The church was located on Earth's magnetic equator. Then, in the 1960s, St Mary Magdalene Church became Thumba Equatorial Rocket Launching Station.   After much labor rocket was built, the rocket was brought to the launch pad was carried on a bicycle.   On the eve of November 21, 1963, Nike-Apache blasted off into space from the garden facing St. Mary Magdalene Church.
