Eklavya

      The greatest skilled archer in this world began his life as a poor jungle boy. He had to look after the jungle at a very young after his father passed away in the war. With  great archery skill he taught the world you can go places just by listening to your master.

        Eklavya was born in Nothern India to a very poor family, at a very young age he loved animals and was really dissapointed with the wolves. When Eklavya told his mother he wanted to learn archery and protect the animals in the jungle, she told him to go to Dhronacharya the greatest archer in the world. Eklavya found dhrona in the outskirts of the village teaching couple of young princes. Eklavya found the right time to go to dhrona when the princess were taking a break. He said he wanted to protect the jungle and his village neverless there we no one to teach him this fine archery skills. Dhronacharya was really moved by Eklavya's determination, but he couldn't teach the jungle boy also known as Eklavya with the princes. Drona wanted Eklavya to be his student, but at the same time he didn't want to disappoint him at the same time. He told Eklavya to start practicing in the jungle and that he will become a master on his own. He also said even tough i will not be there to teach you will always be my student, now go practice by yourself. When Eklavya went home that night he immediately built a statue of his master and decorated it with flowers. Whenever he practiced he would pray in front of the idol and he would also meditate if he had a problem and he would find a solution immediatley. With great determination eklavya became a skilled archer and everyone was really proud of him. One day Arjuna and Eswathama the son of Dhrona were at the jungle and their dog disturbed eklavya and he tried to shush the dog and he closed it's mouth with arrows. The dog went back and Arjuna was really impressed and went to see who this great skilled archer was. When he came he was surprised to see a good looking jungle boy practicing archery. Eager to know he asked who his master was out came the reply than nearly stopped Arjuna's heart. Why it is the great Dhronacharya said Eklavya. Arjuna was surprised and said Dhronacharya doesn't teach poor jungle boys like you he teaches princes like me Arjuna the Pandava prince. Arjuna was angry and disappointed at the same time because Dhrona promised him to make him the greatest archer in the world. When Arjuna told Dhrona what happened Dhrona was completely moved and didn't know what to say. He immediately wanted to see Eklavya. News spread quickly that Dhronacharya was coming to see Eklavya all the villagers dressed in colorful clothes and decorated the forest with lights. Eklavya made Dhrona, Arjuna, and Eswathamama see his skills and everyone was amazed. Dhrona remembered his promise to Arjuna and asked Eklavya to give Gurudhakshana where you give a reward for your master, for teaching except the master has to choose. Well Dhrona asked for Eklavya's right thumb as Gurudhakshana and Eklavya willingly gave it to him. Arjuna seeing all this appreciated Eklavya's devotion. Eklavya once again passed the art of archery once again with his left hand.

         Eklavya taught us many things from his life. By listening to your master you can go places and wonders.

With courage and determination you can do anything. Nothing is impossible in this world all you need is practice. If we follow Eklavya we will all be great people and  set out an example to everyone around you.

Global Warming

                   Global Warming?  As we all know that is our almost every day talk about the environment. Every one says it is the rising temperature of the earth. When did the topic come? Who are the causers? What are are the advantages and disadvantages? What can we do about it? Those are the questions that almost everyone wonder about, but if we found about what do we do? Well.....  I will answer  the questions about  global warming .

         First of all What is global warming? It is an increase in the earth average atmospheric temprature that causes corresponding changes in climate that may result from the green house affect. When did us people came to be aware of it and how did we try to decrease it? People came to be aware of global warming in the late 70's through 80's. It was when the industrial age began in the United States with tons of pollution.

         Many peoplw wonder what are the advantages and the disadvantages. The answer to the advantages is reallyy few and the disadvantages you may know are a lot. Let's see the advantages first:

                                                        Less need of energy
                                              Fewer deaths and injuries in the cold
                                              Longer growing seasones meaning more agriculture
                                                         in some parts of the world
                                                    Mountains increeasing in height
                                             Frozen regions may experience more plant growth
                                                              and milder climates

           Those are some of the few advantages global warming. Know for the disadvantages:

                                                Ocean circulation disrupted
                                                   Deserts getting drier
                                             Changes to agricultural production
                                                   Water Shortage
                                               Starvation and malnutrition
                                          Air pollution   and much  more......

           There should be a reason why global warming is occuring and for the disadvantages. The answer is
                                  us the people that are wasting the earth or polluting it with so many gases.

         You as the old saying goes "someone who created the problem should fix the problem"
                                 So how can we fix it? Here are some soilutions:
                                                Save Electricity
                                                Bike or Walk
                                                 Plant Trees
                                                  Recycle
                                           Buy things that you need

                                Buy thing that have energy star on them

Sugar Cane

As we know there are many plant species in this world 

some of them which we already know and some of them

that  have never been discovered. Plants give us oxygen,

vegetables, fruits, and much more. There is one type of plant 

out there that gives us sugar. Sugar is used in many things 

especially food. Ice cream, Cake , and much more. The plant

that gives us is "The Sugar Cane!" There you go the name says it

all.

Before we get the sugar there is a whole lot of process that takes place
before we get the sugar. First a little bit of background information from the
sugar cane. The sugar cane is in the " Plantae"  Species. It was brought to the U.S
by Christopher Columbus in his second voyage. It is mainly grown in
Asia, Europe, and much more. It is grown in tropical
climate.

Now lets see how its processed. For sugar cane to be processed it takes 2
stages. One of the stages is the milling process.

In the milling process the Sugar cane is washed and 

shredded with different kinds of knives. After that it is 

continually washed, mixed with rollers, and is crushed between rollers.

Where the juice is collected and stored. The stored juice has

10-15 percent sucrose. The remains are called " Bagasse"  The remaining solids

are burned for fuel. The juice is put under the sun so it can be evaporated and

know it has 60 percent sucrose by weight.

            The last stage is Refining. In the Refining process the raw sugar is purified.

The raw sugar is mixed with heavy syrup and centrifuged which is called

" Affination" They do this because to wash away sugar crystals outer

coat away. Then the sugar is filtered and so are the remaining solids. The purified

sugar is now concentrated where it is repeatably crystallized by a vacuum. There

you get "Pure White Sugar"

Recycling

Papers? Aluminum Cans? Plastic Bottles? Are we

recycling all these materials? or at least once in a

while? If we don't recycle will it destroy our Earth

for good? Many people never recycle for being lazy,

too busy, and much more!!! In fact we are all killing

our Earth with our bare hands by not recycling

materials that can be recycled!!!! People should

be cautiously taking care of our Earth in every

way they can!! Every one needs to recycle in

every way and at every time.

Thanks for taking your time and reading my blog. Have a

wonderful day.

Conflicts

Conflicts? Can our daily lives

change?

or stay the same?

Can it change relationships

between family and friends?

Conflicts!!! without them our life is

a waste. It isn't exciting

or wonderful. It s just boring and lonesome.

We face conflicts

on a daily basis, they can be about family

or friends and much

more. I learned that conflicts can change

our lives and we can

learn from them. Over the years I learned to

have patience,

be productive, and responsible.

Thanks for taking your time and reading my blog. Have a nice day.
