"Socrates: The Life and Legacy of an Iconic Philosopher"

 Socrates was a wise man from Greece who lived a long time ago. He didn't write any books but he was famous for talking to people and asking them questions. People called this way of talking the "Socratic method." He liked to challenge what people believed and make them think deeply. Some people in Athens liked him, but others were afraid of him.


One day, Socrates was accused of being disrespectful to the gods and for teaching young people bad things. He went to a trial and was found guilty. The punishment was for him to drink a poison that would make him die. Even though people tried to help him escape, Socrates chose to die because he believed in doing the right thing.


Even though Socrates is not alive anymore, people still remember him today because of the things he taught and the way he thought. He inspired many people to think for themselves and question what they believed.

Difference between CPVC & PVC

  CPVC and PVC are both types of plastic piping commonly used in plumbing applications. However, there are some key differences between the two. Material: PVC, or polyvinyl chloride, is a thermoplastic made from vinyl chloride monomer. CPVC, or chlorinated polyvinyl chloride, is made by adding chlorine to PVC. The resulting material is more heat-resistant and can handle higher temperatures than PVC. Applications: PVC is commonly used for cold water distribution, drainage, and venting systems. CPVC, on the other hand, is suitable for both hot and cold water applications and is commonly used for hot water distribution, as well as for sprinkler systems, fire protection systems, and industrial piping systems. Strength and Durability: CPVC is generally more durable than PVC and can withstand higher pressures and temperatures without breaking down or corroding. Cost: CPVC is generally more expensive than PVC, but the higher cost is offset by its superior strength, durability, and heat re...

Methods of Quarrying

 Quarrying is the process of extracting natural stones from the earth's surface. There are several methods of quarrying that are used in the stone industry, each with its advantages and disadvantages. Here are some of the most common methods of quarrying: Digging method: This is the simplest method of quarrying and involves digging a large pit or hole in the ground to extract the stone. This method is most commonly used for softer stones like sandstone and limestone. Drilling and blasting method: This method involves drilling a series of holes in the rock face and then inserting explosives into the holes. The explosives are then detonated, which breaks the rock into smaller pieces that can be extracted. This method is most commonly used for harder stones like granite, marble, and basalt. Wire sawing method: This method involves using a diamond wire saw to cut through the rock. The wire is fed through a series of pulleys and powered by a motor, which allows it to cut through the sto...
