1 Billion out of poverty



The Economist | India’s demographic challenge: Wasting time

The Economist
India's demographic challenge
India will soon have a fifth of the world's working-age population. It urgently needs to provide them with better jobs
PATNA, BIHAR
ONE of India's bigger private-sector employers can be found in Patna, the capital of Bihar, a poor, populous state in the east of the country. Narendra Kumar Singh, the boss, has three gold rings on his right hand and arms big enough to crush rocks. His firm, Frontline, has 86,000 people on its books. They are mostly unskilled men from rural areas in poor states like Bihar; thanks to Mr Singh they have jobs in cities all over India.

Water Fowl around Boca Raton, Florida

I have come across 2 bird families in our neighborhood. Both are invasive species and like us Immigramts trace their origin to far away places. The first bird is all the way from Egypt. Residents  brought them  to Florida to make Golf courses look good. We also saw them at a large  housing estates on Powerline Road which has a large water features. Not being bothered with fancy names, ( like Mallard Duck) they were named  Egyptian Geese!

They really look great and beautiful. This being the season with hatchlings taking there first steps in the world, I came across a family of Egyptian Geese at the public golf course. Daddy was very protective of his family!


The same can't be said for the second Invaders. These are Moscovy Ducks and nest around our house ( we too have a water feature ) they have just hatched 10 chicks and look great with Mom and Dad crossing the road with Dad leading the way then the 10 chicks and finally mommy duck hurrying along. I'm guessing they came form Moscow, Russia. These fellows don't have a lot of ornamental beauty, but are fierce fighters, love their territory and family.
