Hope it cultivates a habit of reading and buying books.
Before the eighties, reading was a favorite hobby
of the young and old, gents and ladies. Books were in demand. Many of the young
and old were members of libraries and made it a habit to frequently go, browse
through the books and get a good book to read
at home. It encouraged people to buy books. Many of them had a
collection of books and a mini library at home or office. One could see people
reading best sellers on the bus, train, taxi or in their vehicles.
Then in the
mid eighties with the advent of colour television and other modern gadgets,
reading slowly diminished. Computers, tablets, laptops and mobile came into the
picture. Reading was forgotten. Things became easy with just a press of a
button you could get information. And now in modern times click, press or swipe
is the order of the day. People are busy with no time to read. With the disappearance of the books, reading has taken a back seat among the young and old.
Publication of books drastically reduced, prominent book shops are closing down as it’s no longer profitable business to sell books. Titles don’t mean much unless it is from a top or celebrity author. The sales of books have dwindled down to a trickle. The days of million copies of best sellers are a distant dream. Now with the coming of e-books, is the final nail on the coffin.
Now with new ideas and approach there seems to be a
new interest in reading and books. A revival is happening. The young are once
again attracted to the printed books. They are interested in buying books.
Online buying has made it easy for people to browse, check and order the books.
And it is delivered at the home or office. Hope it cultivates a habit of reading
and buying books.

A decade to
paint a bridge
The Oresund sea-bridge, 8 km long, linking Sweden
with Denmark opened in 2000, and its 5-coat paint job has protected the steel
structure from seawater and harsh weather for 20 years. Now engineers want to
give it a fresh coat of paint but it’s not an easy task. Painting this bridge
will take over a decade. The time needed to repair this bridge is 13 years. The
surface area is 300,000 square meters.300,000-400,000 litres of paint will be
needed to paint this bridge. This will protect it again for a few decades,
given the harsh weather conitions.
Weird claim
In 1977, Argentina sent a pregnant woman to
Antartica in an effort to claim aportion of the continent. The boy, born on
January 7, 1978, became the first human to be born in Antartica.
Seed Paper?
As the name suggests, this paper contains seeds. It
is handmade, using seeds and cotton. When you plant the paper, the cotton
starts decomposing in the soil and the seeds germinate. It’s a innovative
method to make tags, gifts and other items that grow into a plant.
