How to avoid waste of energy?
With fast growth of civilization there is also an ever mounting need for energy. Energy may be in the form of fuels or electricity. Petrol is a liquid fuel which is used widely nowadays. But this kind of fuels is likely to be exhausted at the rate man is using it recently.
To meet the challenge, various methods have been suggested. One is to minimize the man’s demand in using the energy. Non-essential consumption should be minimized. During certain days of the year, people all over the world turn off the electricity for 1 hour to save the energy. Modern gadgets consuming energy should only be used when they are absolutely necessary.
Energy conservation is possible through modernization of plant and equipment. People should replace the obsolete equipment by the modern ones.
Energy can be saved on transport by the following methods. People should commute by the rail rather than by cars and vans. The transport must be improved with a view to sparing the energy. Cities must be planned in such a way that the commuting distance from this place to others is minimized.
In industry, many things could be done to reduce waste of energy or to economize energy. The machine maintenance needs to be tightened; heater must be utilized properly. When systems are streamlined, economy in fuel is obvious. Instead of using materials requiring higher energy, those which require lower energy should be used.
We hope man with his ever rising urge for existence will cope up with this urgent problem and find alternatives.

Love is not love that alters when it alteration finds. So wrote Shakespeare. Your true friend loves you come what may. It is the love and friendship your friend has for you that matter most. Any change of circumstance matters little to the deep love shared.

Friendship is to be treasured like a jewel. If jewels are lost they can be replicated. But a true friend cannot be cloned. Value your friendship. It will pass the test of time. Once true, always true. Such is a real friend.

A true friend cares for you at all times. Even when the going is bad, your friend will stay with you with unwavering love and affection and as much care and concern. Likewise, even if you are not in physical proximity with each other the friendship with a true friend does not wane. Space and time do not matter in true friendship.
