  FROM SAMPATH’S DESK:   MAN AND NATURE     1. The streaming water in a water body generates froth - transitory, though!     2. The reaction of the thunder results in the production of lightning, giving bright light all over, only to disappear in a jiffy!     3. When you're on the move, you will keep going steadily, but if you stop, you will lose balance. Yes, it's nothing but a bicycle!     4. Earth’s gravity is a fundamental factor in generating water waves in a sea or ocean. Waves are also formed by wind transferring energy to the water's surface through friction, creating ripples that grow into waves as the wind continues to blow over a distance. The rise and fall of waves are human life lessons! Aren't they?     5. Flying birds inspired man into designing and manufacturing airplanes, and the echo to make radios, phones, TVs, etc.!     6. Fishes, whales, and dolphins influen...

Which agency is supplying a pleasant smell and a sweet taste to the ripening fruits?     8. Who is making the Earth revolve and rotate at a particular speed to create different weather seasons/conditions from time to time, and cause day and night al...

  FROM SAMPATH’S DESK:   'TION' - TONGUE TWISTER     EXECUTION without PERFECTION is like a paper rose with ATTRACTION, but without proper  MANIFESTATION. That's only EXPLOITATION of a given SITUATION and without bona fide COMPLETION.     COMMUNICATION without full INFORMATION, appropriate DESCRIPTION, PRESENTATION, CONFIGURATION, DOCUMENTATION, SPECIFICATION, EXPLANATION, and CLARIFICATION wherever needed, doesn't give the right PERCEPTION for the recipient to take requisite ACTION.     Failure should not lead one to DESPERATION or morale DEGRADATION, or success to arrogant JUBILATION.     CIVILIZATION and TRADITION are the gifts handed down from GENERATION to GENERATION for observance with DEDICATION.     EDUCATION is the knowledge FOUNDATION and FOUNTAIN.     Nostalgic NAVIGATION, EXPLORATION, and EXCAVATION is a feel-good factor.     Music RENDITION wiel...
