Department activities
1) Novateur club
Every single soul on earth is gifted with some talent and skill. This skill generates
different ideas & thoughts which lead to innovation. But unfortunately many of us are not
aware of this skill & if we are aware of these skills then we don’t know how to implement
them, execute them and mainly how to represent these skills in front of world. At this
stage the question arises that whether we have enough platforms to represent our ideas &
skills? Whether we have given any opportunity to implement our thoughts & skills? NO.
Actually the issue for present youth is that they know they are having enough capabilities,
ideas and skills but not having enough platforms or are not aware of those platforms to
present their skill. The youngistan is full of talent, and passion. The youth contains
writers, dancers, photographers, techno –minds and many more. But, unfortunately they
don’t have enough chances and opportunities to show their talent. So, it is becoming
necessary to give them an opportunity & platforms to the people with talent & skill.

GOOGLE: Not As Loony As It Sounds
The majority of people in the world lack access to the Internet. Either they can’t afford a connection, or none
exists where they live. Of all the efforts to bring those people online, Google’s “Project Loon” sounds like
the most far-fetched. At the secretive Google X labs, it’s a moonshot among moonshots.
But it just might be working.
When the search company announced in June 2013 that it was building “Wi-Fi balloons” to blanket the
world’s poor, remote, and rural regions with Internet beamed down from the skies, expert reaction ranged
from skeptical to dismissive—with good reason. The plans called for Google to put hundreds of solar-
powered balloons in the air simultaneously, each coordinating its movements in an intricate dance to
provide continuous service even as unpredictable, high-speed winds buffeted them about the stratosphere.
“Absolutely impossible,” declared Per Lindstrand, a Swedish aeronautical engineer and perhaps the world’s
best-known balloonist, in an early Wired article about the project. “Just talk to anybody in the scientific
community.” Specifically, he poked holes in Google’s claim that it could build balloons durable enough to
remain aloft for more than 100 days—nearly twice the duration achieved by state-of-the-art NASA balloons.
“Even three weeks is very rare,” Lindstrand scoffed
VVPCE BULLETIN Vol 4 Issue 2 15
And yet, as you read this, some 75 Google balloons are airborne, hovering somewhere over the far reaches
of the Southern Hemisphere, automatically adjusting their altitudes according to complex algorithms in order
to catch wind currents that will keep them on course. By next year, Google believes it will be able to create a
continuous, 50-mile-wide ring of Internet service around the globe. And by 2016, Project Loon director
Mike Cassidy anticipates the first customers in rural South America, Southern Africa, or Oceania
will be able to sign up for cellular LTE service provided by Google balloons. (Google is starting in the far
Southern Hemisphere, which is relatively sparsely populated, before expanding elsewhere.)
But wait, I asked him, not wanting to get taken in by the bright-eyed techno-optimism that infuses so much
of what Google does these days: What are the chances this will really happen?
“When I first started on this project, I would have said, like, 5 percent,” Cassidy says. “But we’re getting
further and further, and what’s amazing is that we haven’t found anything that could keep it from working
yet.” Cassidy scans the minimalist conference room at Google’s New York headquarters for some wood to
knock on. “You know, nothing in life is 100 percent certain. But it’s looking pretty good.”

Tech: About Word-Press
WordPress is an Open Source project, which means there are hundreds of people all over the world working
on it. (More than most commercial platforms.) It also means you are free to use it for anything from your
cat’s home page to a Fortune 500 web site without paying anyone a license fee and a number of other
important freedoms.
About WordPress.org
On this site you can download and install a software script called WordPress. To do this you need a web
host who meets the minimum requirements and a little time. WordPress is completely customizable and can
be used for almost anything. There is also a service called WordPress.com which lets you get started with a
new and free WordPress-based blog in seconds, but varies in several ways and is less flexible than the
WordPress you download and install yourself.
VVPCE BULLETIN Vol 4 Issue 2 4
What You Can Use WordPress For
WordPress started as just a blogging system, but has evolved to be used as full content management system
and so much more through the thousands of plugins and widgets and themes, WordPress is limited only by
your imagination. (And tech chops.)
Connect with the Community
In addition to online resources like the forums and mailing lists a great way to get involved with WordPress
is to attend or volunteer at a WordCamp, which are free or low-cost events that happen all around the world
to gather and educate WordPress users, organized by WordPress users. Check out the website, there might
be a WordCamp near you.
A Little History
WordPress was born out of a desire for an elegant, well-architectured personal publishing system built on
PHP and MySQL and licensed under the GPLv2 (or later). It is the official successor of b2/cafelog.
WordPress is fresh software, but its roots and development go back to 2001. It is a mature and stable
product. We hope by focusing on user experience and web standards we can create a tool different from
anything else out there.
For a bit more about WordPress' history check out the WordPress Wikipedia page or this page on our own
Codex.

Social: Knowledge is the power
Francis Bacon said Knowledge itself is power. Knowledge is the awareness of a fact or a situation. It is a
rich and a unique possession that cannot be stolen or plundered. Knowledge doesn't decrease when it is
given. In fact, knowledge is power. Our knowledge is the amassed thought and experience of countless
human beings. Those who have wide-range of knowledge and experience can capture power and influence.
The possession of knowledge gives them a distinct advantage over the semi educated people. Half
knowledge is regarded as 'the curse of god' and also it is worse than ignorance.
The growth and survival of mankind depends upon knowledge. From the Stone Age till date, man has
struggled to know the unknown. He explored land, water and space by virtue of his knowledge. Man has
made progress in all fields starting from science, technology to arts etc.
At the dawn of civilization, man was at the mercy of nature. He lived the life of a nomad. He invented tools
and weapons for hunting. Verbal communication also developed. He discovered fire and the wheel. These
were the initial steps taken by man by utilizing his brain.
VVPCE BULLETIN Vol 4 Issue 2 5
Man, then started living in communities. He settled near rivers and took up agriculture. The settlements
soon transformed into villages. Waterways and canals were constructed for irrigation purposes.
Surplus grains were stored in granaries to be used later. Soon villages transformed into towns, then
provinces and later cities and counties. He discovered new places and things and invented things for his own
benefits. The gradual change and development from the Stone Age to the Present Age has been made
possible by knowledge.
The successful discoveries and inventions encouraged man to contemplate on new ideas. His ability to
rationalize, analyze and store the events in his memory enabled him to achieve success. Knowledge gave
him the power, confidence and courage to make life worthy of living. He began to use the forces of nature
for his own benefits. Thus, life become comfortable. He utilized his knowledge to improve his own life.
Man has been able to eradicate a number of diseases like polio, pox, plague etc from the face of the earth.
The human body can be operated upon for removal of cancer or for an open heart surgery. The discovery of
a number of antibiotics and drugs have reduced the sufferings of mankind. Agriculture has also been
developed. The use of high yielding crop yield. The invention of the devices of communication has
transformed the world into a global village. Computer has changed human life altogether. All these have
been the fruits of man's quest for knowledge.
Knowledge gave man the feeling of strength and power. Knowledge develops human faculties. It leads to
the excellence of the mind. It enables one to give sound judgment. Education and knowledge are desirable
for democracy. We should try to spread the knowledge base in all fields in the masses. In Indian rural scene,
the knowledge levels about family, school education, problems of woman. child rearing and other social
issues are very poor. Illiteracy and social backwardness combine to put the rural masses at the receiving
end. Lack of knowledge leads to poverty and absence of methods of productivity and economic prosperity.
This vicious cycle continues. Restraint, tolerance, understanding and capacity to manage affairs come with
knowledge. If knowledge is imparted to our rural children, youth, women and men, they would emerge as
the major social power.
There is no end to the gaining of knowledge, It is only the foolish man who thinks he knows everything.
Modern knowledge is very intricate and wide is scope. Thousands of researchers, all over the world are
constantly at work to acquire more knowledge for us. But the immense increase in knowledge of the world
sometimes doesn't make us better human beings. Sadly, with the passage of time, man started misusing
knowledge. He started using knowledge to destroy the very forces that provided him sustenance.
He interfered with nature and disturbed the ecological balance. He has polluted air, land and water. He has,
thus created unfavorable conditions for himself and others. Man has developed destructive weapons that can
destroy
completely the whole of mankind. The bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima proves the fact. Man is posing
a threat to the existence of flora and fauna.
Knowledge shouldn't be misused. Nuclear power must be used for useful purpose. Man should find
solutions to control and check pollution. The conventional sources of energy are depleting at a fast rate. He
should try to find out sources of economical power generation.
VVPCE BULLETIN Vol 4 Issue 2 6
Knowledge must be acquired and shared as a collective effort. Lack of knowledge leads to poverty and
absence of economic prosperity. Knowledge should be utilized for the upliftment of the poor masses. It
should be used for peace, prosperity and growth.

Celib: William Shakespeare
William Shakespeare (26 April 1564 (baptised) – 23 April 1616) was an English poet and playwright,
widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. He is
often called England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon". His extant works, including some
collaborations, consist of about 38 plays, 154 sonnets, two long narrative poems, two epitaphs on a man
named John Combe, one epitaph on Elias James, and several other poems. His plays have been translated
into every major living language and are
performed more often than those of any other playwright.
Shakespeare was born and brought up in Stratford-upon-Avon. At the age of 18, he married Anne
Hathaway, with whom he had three children: Susanna, and twins Hamnet and Judith. Between 1585 and
1592, he began a successful career in London as an actor, writer, and part owner of a playing company
called the Lord Chamberlain's Men, later known as the King's Men. He appears to have retired to Stratford
around 1613 at age 49, where he died three years later. Few records of Shakespeare's private life survive,
and there has been considerable speculation about such matters as his physical appearance, sexuality,
religious beliefs, and whether the works attributed to him were written by others.

around 1613 at age 49, where he died three years later. Few records of Shakespeare's private life survive, and there has been considerable speculation about such matters as his physical appearance, sexuality,
religious beliefs, and whether the works attributed to him were written by others.
Shakespeare produced most of his known work between 1589 and 1613. His early plays were mainly
comedies and histories, genres he raised to the peak of sophistication and artistry by the end of the 16th
century. He then wrote mainly tragedies until about 1608, including Hamlet, King Lear, Othello, and
VVPCE BULLETIN Vol 4 Issue 2 7
Macbeth, considered some of the finest works in the English language. In his last phase, he wrote
tragicomedies, also known as romances, and collaborated with other playwrights.
Many of his plays were published in editions of varying quality and accuracy during his lifetime. In 1623,
John Heminges and Henry Condell, two friends and fellow actors of Shakespeare, published the First Folio,
a collected edition of his dramatic works that included all but two of the plays now recognised as
Shakespeare's. It was prefaced with a poem by Ben Jonson, in which Shakespeare is hailed, presciently, as
"not of an age, but for all time."
Shakespeare was a respected poet and playwright in his own day, but his reputation did not rise to its present
heights until the 19th century. The Romantics, in particular, acclaimed Shakespeare's genius, and the
Victorians worshipped Shakespeare with a reverence that George Bernard Shaw called "bardolatry". In the
20th century, his work was repeatedly adopted and rediscovered by new movements in scholarship and
performance. His plays remain highly popular today and are constantly studied, performed, and
reinterpreted in diverse cultural and political contexts throughout the world.
Early life William Shakespeare was the son of John Shakespeare, an alderman and a successful glover originally from
Snitterfield, and Mary Arden, the daughter of an affluent landowning farmer. He was born in Stratford-
upon-Avon and baptised there on 26 April 1564. His actual birthdate remains unknown, but is traditionally
observed on 23 April, St George's Day. This date, which can be traced back to an 18th-century scholar's
mistake, has proved appealing to biographers, since Shakespeare died 23 April 1616. He was the third child
of eight and the eldest surviving son.
At the age of 18, Shakespeare married the 26-year-old Anne Hathaway. The consistory court of the Diocese
of Worcester issued a marriage licence on 27 November 1582. The next day two of Hathaway's neighbours
posted bonds guaranteeing that no lawful claims impeded the marriage. The ceremony may have been
arranged in some haste, since the Worcester chancellor allowed the marriage banns to be read once instead
of the usual three times, and six months after the marriage Anne gave birth to a daughter, Susanna, baptised
26 May 1583.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Shakespeare Twins, son Hamnet and daughter Judith,
followed almost two years later and were baptised 2 February 1585. Hamnet died of unknown causes at the
age of 11 and was buried 11 August 1596.
After the birth of the twins, Shakespeare left few historical traces until he is mentioned as part of the
London theatre scene in 1592, and scholars refer to the years between 1585 and 1592 as Shakespeare's "lost
years". Biographers attempting to account for this period have reported many apocryphal stories. Nicholas
Rowe, Shakespeare’s first biographer, recounted a Stratford legend that Shakespeare fled the town for
London to escape prosecution for deer poaching in the estate of local squire Thomas Lucy. Shakespeare is
also supposed to have taken his revenge on Lucy by writing a scurrilous ballad about him. Another 18th-
century story has Shakespeare starting his theatrical career minding the horses of theatre patrons in London.
John Aubrey reported that Shakespeare had been a country schoolmaster. Some 20th-century scholars have
suggested that Shakespeare may have been employed as a schoolmaster by Alexander Hoghton of
Lancashire, a Catholic landowner who named a certain "William Shakeshafte" in his will. Little evidence
substantiates such stories other than hearsay collected after his death, and Shakeshafte was a common name
in the Lancashire area.
