Rob Wagner on Saturday, 07 February 2009 For the past year there has been quite a bit of scepticism among the suits in the construction industry about the practicality of the much vaunted Masdar City. The city is supposed to be the be-all, end-all zero-carbon project that promises to revolutionise how cities are to run in an eco-friendly manner. As Construction Week Assistant Editor Jamie Stewart asks: Is Masdar City the beacon of progress or one big petri dish on a budget pumped with steroids? Or is it in the most modest terms the projects' publicists can conjure up: A giant leap for mankind. I've been inclined to fall on the side of the sceptics because, well, the goals seem a bit too lof...

I am not sure whether this is really happened or not, But I liked it and want to share with all my friend here. Please read once ............ One day Maths teacher asked her students to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name. Then she told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down. It took the remainder of the class period to finish their assignment, and as the students left the room, each one handed in the papers. That Saturday, the teacher wrote down the name of each student on a separate sheet of paper, and listed what everyone else had said about that individual. On Monday she gave each student his or her list. Before long, the entire class was smiling. 'Really?' she heard whispered. 'I never knew that I meant anything to anyone!' and, 'I didn't know others liked me so much,' were most of the comments. No one ever mentioned those papers in class again. She...
