One Page One Theme-TATA

Dear Fellow Philatelists,

Recently I came across a book "One Page One Theme" by Shri Praful K.Thakker. The book discussed about presenting a philetelic theme in a single page. There were more than hundred illustrations on differnt interesting theme.

Just like Cricket, Philately has undergone a major change. From 5 day test series, to one day international to T20, Cricket match became short and intense. Similarly from classical collection of " Maximum counties-Maximum stamps, the change has been drastic to few counties and limited Thematic subjects. In Philatelic Exibitions apart from 5 frame exibit, 3 frame and 1 frame exibits are also acceptable.

I have tried to make an One Page exibit on TATA. As far as I know, TATA is the only industrial house of having the honour of maximum number of Stamps issued by India Post.

Your comments and suggestions are most welcome.

Best regards

Zero

Zero got GOOGLED !

Dear friends, More than a decade ago, I started using Mahajaal (Internet). You may agree that this is one of the most important invention of century that changed life of almost entire literate population through out the world. Those days, for a layman like me, using Computer was a Love/Hate experience. My introduction to the fascinating world of Google was also almost at the same time. I used Google as a search engine to search information on net. It was and even today very simple. You type the name/subject, hit enter and PRESTO! A list of well sorted sites is in front of you to explore. Than came Google earth, the most fascinating and mesmerising experience of seeing various places on earth from the sky. Our own locality, friends house looks so different from the top! Google maps is a great help in North American cities to find address. G-mail gave an altogether different experience of e-mail usage. The well laid out mail box is so convenient to use. G-chat side bar lets me know abou...

THE TASTE OF INDIA

Dear friends, Recently I came across a news item saying India will now export milk products to New Zealand, the global dairy capital ( “Kurien’s Kiwi dream gets real …..” http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Business/Kuriens-Kiwi-dream-gets-real-/articleshow/4698884.cms) Indeed India has come a long way. I still remember those days, as a young boy standing in a long queue with empty bottles in a bag waiting eagerly at the milk booth for the milk van. Those days Amul butter and powdered milk for babies were only known milk product for the masses. Flavoured milk, cheese and milk chocolate bar (Popularly known as Cadbury), Ice-cream were a rare treat. Ice-cream party and Ice-cream making used to be a seasonal summer family event. Over the years, glass bottles got replaced with plastic pouches and also availability of milk improved drastically. Now queue for milk is a past story. Today one can choose from many variants of milk and buy any time from many places. Thanks to Amul, the number of ...

Are Battery operated two wheelers cheap and pollution free?

Dear friends, Wishing you all a very Happy and Prosperous New Year. It has been long since I wrote anything. After returning to India, I find many Battery operated 2 wheelers on the road. Without any noise or warning, they simply zip past you. Few handbills and advertisements in local news paper promote these as a cheap, safe and pollution free mode of transportation in the city. I wonder are they really cheap and pollution free? First, these vehicles run on batteries that are recharged at home using Electricity. Generally Electricity for homes is subsidized by charging higher tariff to the Industry, thus it appears to be cheap because of the subsidy. If the real cost is considered than it may not be as cheap as the general perception is. Secondly, recharging battery is an inefficient use of electricity. Lots of electricity is wasted in heat and vibration of electrodes. As the battery ages, it consumes more and more Electricity for every recharge. People, who use Invertors at home, are...
