A man eats two eggs each morning for breakfast. When he goes to the Kirana store he pays Rs. 12 a dozen. Since a dozen eggs won't last a week he normally buys two dozens at a time. One day while buying eggs he notices that the price has risen to Rs. 16. The next time he buys groceries, eggs are Rs. 22 a dozen.
When asked to explain the price of eggs the store owner says, "The price has gone up and I have to raise my price accordingly". This store buys 100 dozen eggs a day. He checked around for a better price and all the distributors have raised their prices. The distributors have begun to buy from the huge egg farms. The small egg farms have been driven out of business. The huge egg farms sell 100,000 dozen eggs a day to distributors. With no competition, they can set the price as they see fit. The distributors then have to raise their prices to the grocery stores. And on and on and on.
As the man kept buying eggs the price kept going up. He saw the big egg trucks delivering 100 dozen eggs each day. Nothing changed there. He checked out the huge egg farms and found they were selling 100,000 dozen eggs to the distributors daily. Nothing had changed but the price of eggs.
Then week before Diwali the price of eggs shot up to Rs. 40 a dozen. Again he asked the grocery owner why and was told, "Cakes and baking for the holiday". The huge egg farmers know there will be a lot of baking going on and more eggs will be used. Hence, the price

The people of Indian will not forgive congress for their nasty approach. They will be off the grounds after elections. Offers and counter-offers, if made, are going to spoil their image more. The congress should resign and seek fresh elections. A National Party should maintain respect in the minds of people instead of just winning trust vote.

People of India will never forgive traitors like Karat and ilk for siding with China and Pakistan.

Are bhai, people will not forgive or forget both Cs (Congies n Commies) for their B2C business.....neither have nation's interest at heart....both are worried about B2C.
And yes, B2C is not ur ecommerce term ('Business to Consumer' or 'Business to Customer').
For Congress, it means 'Bush to Congress'. For Commies, it means 'Bush to China'.

Both the duplicate Gandhis are not sleeping well. Now-a-days they speak what they want in that hangover. One says N-Deal is 'best' national interest. Another says Govt. will fall but N-deal will go. I am confused they sell to the US / Italy.

And I am worried if anti-UPA people have sold themselves to China or Pakistan or both.
Solar energy is the most readily available source of energy. It does not belong to anybody and is, therefore, free. It is also the most important of the non-conventional sources of energy because it is non-polluting and, therefore, helps in lessening the greenhouse effect.
Solar energy has been used since prehistoric times, but in a most primitive manner. Before 1970, some research and development was carried out in a few countries to exploit solar energy more efficiently, but most of this work remained mainly academic. After the dramatic rise in oil prices in the 1970s, several countries began to formulate extensive research and development programmes to exploit solar energy.
When we hang out our clothes to dry in the sun, we use the energy of the sun. In the same way, solar panels absorb the energy of the sun to provide heat for cooking and for heating water. Such systems are available in the market and are being used in homes and factories.
In the next few years it is expected that millions of households in the world will be using solar energy as the trends in USA and Japan show. India is one of the few countries with long days and plenty of sunshine, especially in the Thar desert region. This zone, having abundant solar energy available, is suitable for harnessing solar energy for a number of applications. In areas with similar intensity of solar radiation, solar energy could be easily harnessed. Solar thermal energy is being used in India for heating water for

I am in Solar Energy Business. Mind you it is very very costly. It has not yet developed to the stage that millions of households in India can use. In Japan, USA, Germany, France, Italy the governments are supporting it with a subsidies in the range of Rs.30 - 40 per Kilo watt Hour (Unit) of generated power on every house for 20 years. Solar energy will take centre stage when the technology improves. The present technology is at a stage WHAT COMPUTERS WERE IN 60s. A long way to go.

I really don't know if you people have seriously knows about the energy crisis that that the country is going through or will go through. Just imagine a city like kanpur and lucknow has 8 hours of power cut , its neighbouring cities and village does not have electricity at all. i was in kanpur for two days and it was hell over there. Forget about the cost, we spend so much of money everywhere, lets spend something extra for the benefit of poor.
