Egg printing explained

Vijay — Thu, 17 May 2012 12:00:53 +0000

Have you ever read the code printed on the eggs you buy, from shops? Do you know the meaning of this code?

Whether you buy cage, barn, free range or organic, a code will be printed on your egg.

The first number refers to the farming method; 0 = organic, 1 = free range, 2 = barn, 3 = cage.

This is followed by the country of origin and then the farm identification which is a specific code denoting the actual farm where your eggs were produced.

Why do we shout in anger?

Vijay — Thu, 26 Apr 2012 09:38:15 +0000

A Hindu saint who was visiting river Ganga to take bath, found a group of family members on the banks, shouting in anger at each other.

He turned to his disciples smiled and asked. “Why do people shout in anger shout at each other?”

Disciples thought for a while, one of them said, “Because we lose our calm, we shout.”

“But, why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You can as well tell him what you have to say in a soft manner”, asked the saint.

Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied other disciples.

Finally the saint explained, “When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance a lot. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other to cover that great distance.

What happens when two people fall in love? They don’t shout at each other but talk softly, Because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is either nonexistent or very small”

The saint continued, “When they love each other even more, what happens? They do not speak, only whisper and they get even closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only look at each other and that’s all. That is how close two people are when they love each other.”

He looked at his disciples and said.

“So when you argue do not let your hearts get distant, Do not say words that distance each other more, or else there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return.”

Easy solution to a British problem

Vijay — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 15:39:44 +0000

Having two taps, one for hot water another for cold water, in Britain is so common. Sometimes, it is really tough to handle two taps sinks.

Two taps prototype is debatable and it has it’s own pros and cons. We don’t need to bother about it.

I stumbled across this pic which is a quick win to this problem.
