# Aloe Vera is a wild plant that doesn’t require much water or fertilizers. Those who maintain plantations, cultivate the plant either wholly or partly and supply it to manufacturers in the form of mature cleaned leaves or extracted gel.
# The gel inside the leaves is then stabilised, purified and processed by the manufacturing companies, before this pulp is used to make Aloe Vera-based products.

When about 10 inches of an eight-foot long and 10-millimetre thick iron rod pierced his body, 10-year-old Rishi Talreja (name changed on request) didn’t scream. In fact, he neither shed a drop of tear nor did he call out for his parents. Very calmly, he proceeded on to take the rod out of his body, and would have done so had he been left to himself. Fortunately, passers-by saw the boy in trouble a

Washington: The first black man elected US president is poised to name Washington lawyer Eric Holder as the nation’s first black attorney general — a historic appointment but one with some potential political problems over a 2001 pardon.
Holder, 57, met President-elect Barack Obama only four years ago, but the affable Bronx-born son of a Barbados immigrant quickly won a seat in the Democrat’s inn

It’s the largest spacecraft ever built, but the orbital assembly of the International Space Station (ISS) began rather humbly ten years ago, with the launch from Kazakhstan of its first bus-sized component, Zarya, on Nov 20, 1998.
The launch began an international construction project of unprecedented complexity and sophistication.

Shahreen complains that she doesn’t wear western clothes because everything is too small or revealing. But Girish wants a change from salwars.
A glaring issue is that he doesn’t know what she should wear. He looks around in the formals section, but since she’s a homemaker, she doesn’t have anywhere to wear them.
He drifts towards the party section, but she isn’t one for halters or diaphanous mat
