Five Year Plans
2007-05-17 13:21:00
Five Year Plans1First Plan (1951 - 56)It was based on Harrod-Domar Model.Community Development Program was launched in 1952.Emphasized on agriculture, price stability, power & transport.It was more than a success, because of good harvests in the last two years.2Second Plan (1956 - 61)Also called Mahalanobis Plan after its chief architect.Its objective was rapid industrialization.Advocated huge imports which led to emptying of funds leading to foreign loans. It shifted basic emphasis from agriculture to industry far too soon. During this plan, price level increased by 30%, against a decline of 13% during the First Plan.3Third Plan (1961 - 66)At its conception time, it was felt that Indian economy has entered a take-off stage. Therefore, its aim was to make India a 'self-reliant' and 'self-generating' economy.Also, it was realized from the experience of first two plans that agriculture should be given the top priority to suffice the requirement of export and industry.Complete fai

Difference between someone u love and someone u like
2007-05-15 12:42:00
In front of the person u love, your heart beats faster.But in front of the person u like, u get happy.In front of a person u love, winter seems like a spring.But in front of a person u like, winter is just a beautiful winter.If u look into the eyes of the one u love, u blush.But if u look into the eyes of the one u like, u smile.In front of a person u love, u can't say anything on your mind. But in front of a person u like, u can.In front of the one u love, u tend to get shy. But in front of the one u like, u can show your own self.U can't look straight into the eyes of the one u love. But u can always smile into the eyes of the one u like.When the one u love is crying, u cry with him.But when the one u like is crying, u end up comforting him.The feeling of love starts from the eye. But the feeling of liking starts from the ear.So if u stop liking a person u used to like, all uneed to do is close your ears.But if u try to close your eyes, love turns into a drop of tear & remains in y

First Habitable PlanetAstronomers find first habitable planet outside solar system.Astronomers find first habitable planet outside solar systemThe first habitable planet similar in size and conditions to Earth has been located in a distant solar system, once again raising the possibility of life on other planets, scientists said.The as-yet unnamed planet is only about one-and-a-half times the size of Earth and five times more massive, a team of European astronomers announced at the European Southern Observatory in Garching, Germany."We have estimated that the mean temperature of this super-Earth lies between zero and 40 degrees Celsius, and water would thus be liquid," said Stephane Udry of the Geneva Observatory."Models predict that the planet should be either rocky like our Earth or covered with oceans."The planet is located around a star known as the Gliese 581, about 20.5 light years from Earth's solar system and one of the 100 closest stars to the Sun.

Accupressure
2007-05-15 11:42:00
AccupressureAccupressure and Reflexology Quite interesting! Keep Walking..... The Organs of your body have their sensory touches at the bottom of your foot, if you massage these points you will find relief from aches and pains as you can see the heart is on the left foot.Typically they are shown as points and arrows to show which organ it connects to. It is indeed correct since the nerves connected to these organs terminate here. This is covered in great details in Acupressure studies or textbooks. God created our body so well that he thought of even this. He made us walk so that we will always be pressing these pressure points and thus keeping these organs activated at all times.So, keep walking...Accupressure

! When you came into the world, she held you in her arms. You thanked her by wailing like a banshee.When you were 1 year old, she fed you and bathed you. You thanked her by crying all night long.When you were 2 years old, she taught you to walk. You thanked her by running away when she called.When you were 3 years old, she made all your meals with love. You thanked her by tossing your plate on the floor.When you were 4 years old, she gave you some crayons. You thanked her by coloring the dining room table.When you were 5 years old, she dressed you for the holidays. You thanked her by plopping into the nearest pile of mud.When you were 6 years old, she walked you to school. You thanked her by screaming, "I'M NOT GOING!"When you were 7 years old, she bought you a baseball. You thanked her by throwing it through the next-door-neighbor' s window.When you were 8 years old, she handed you an ice cream. You thanked her by dripping
