Topic : Rainwater Harvesting All are thinking. Water is the elixir of life. Though 2/3 of the world is covered by sea water, the potable water is a little more than just 1% of water available on this globe. Even this 1% is not easily available to us. A part of it is found in the poles and the rest flows as river and gets lost into the ocean. The water that percolates down the porous soil and gets stored alone sustains most of the human race. As the world population has exploded the pressure on potable water is also high. So, there is a need to preserve Rain water to prevent wars between countries on water. When rains fail occasionally, the animals in forest migrate to long distances in search of water. Small check dams built in different places hold rain water and help animals face severe droughts in forests. Man has ever been the most ungrateful wretch. He keeps on digging bore-wells and uses water to the maximum without ever bothering to replenish the water tables. As a re...

Debate May 31,2016

Today topic is very interesting : Priyanka (Host) Please maintain decorum in whole debate.: Priyanka (Host) Today topic is " Do office uniforms help to improve the environment? " : Priyanka (Host ) Legendary Harvard Business School marketing professor Theodore Levitt once said, “People don't want to buy a quarter-inch drill. They want a quarter-inch hole!” Similarly, business managers don’t want to simply rent work uniforms for their employees, they want to benefit from the many image enhancing results a managed workwear program can produce. Foremost among those results is the ability to project a professional image and effectively promote a company brand, says Adam Soreff, Director of Marketing at UniFirst, a leading provider of uniforms and workwear to businesses throughout the U.S. and Canada. “A few years back, a national survey conducted by J.D. Power and Associates for the textile service industry found that customers are more inclined to do busines...

Game of Marbles (Kanche)

Believe it or not, but no one really knows where marbles originated. They've been found in the ashes of Pompeii and in the tombs of ancient Egyptians, and they were played with by Native American tribes, so it's impossible to pin down a precise country of origin. The earliest examples were simply stones that had been polished smooth by a running river, but for centuries artisans made them by hand from clay, stone, or glass. Mass production became possible in 1884, when Sam Dyke of Akron, Ohio, created a wooden block with six grooves, each of which held a lump of clay. An operator would roll a wooden paddle over all the clay balls at once, with a back-and-forth and slightly lateral motion, creating six marbles. With around 350 employees, Dyke's factory was cranking out five train carloads, or about one million marbles, every day. Mass production made marbles much cheaper to make, allowing the price to drop from about one penny each to a bag of 30 marbles for the same pri...
