Socrates was trying to do the same thing in Athens: he was trying to make these learned fools aware that all their learning was false, that they were really fools, pretenders, hypocrites. Naturally, all the professors and all the philosophers and all the so-called thinkers.and Athens was full of them. Athens was the capital of knowledge in those days. Just as today people look towards Oxford or Cambridge, people used to look towards Athens. It was full of the learned fools, and Socrates was trying to bring them down to the earth, was shattering their knowledge, was raising such questions - simple in a way, but difficult to be answered by those who have only acquired knowledge from others.
Athens became very angry with Socrates. They poisoned this man. Socrates is one of the greatest men who has ever walked on the earth; and what he did very few people have done. His method is a basic method. The Socratic method of inquiry is such that it exposes the fools as fools. To expose a fool as a fool is dangerous, of course, because he will take revenge. Socrates was poisoned, Jesus was crucified, Buddha was condemned.
The day Buddha died, Buddhism was thrown out of the country, expelled from the country. The scholars, the pundits, the brahmins, could not allow it to remain. It was too uncomfortable for them. Its basic attack was on the brahmins, the learned fools, and naturally they were offended. They could not face Buddha, they could not encounter him. They waited for their opportunity in a cunning way: when Buddha died, then they started fighting the followers. When the light was gone, then it was the time for the owls, the learned fools, to reign over the country again. And since that time they have reigned even up to now - they are still in power. The same fools!
The world has suffered much. Man could have become the glory of the earth, but because of these fools.and because they are powerful they can harm, and because they are powerful they can destroy any possibility, any opportunity for man to evolve. Man has been moving in circles, and these fools would not like man to become wise, because if man becomes wise these fools will be nowhere. They won't be in power anymore - religiously, politically, socially, financially, all their power will be gone. They can remain in power only if they can go on destroying all possibilities of wisdom for man.
My effort here is to create a Socratic inquiry again, to ask again the fundamental questions that Buddha raised.
In the new commune we are going to have seven concentric circles of people. The first, the most superficial circle, will consist of those who come only out of childish curiosity, or out of already accumulated prejudices, who are, deep down, antagonistic - the journalists, etcetera.
They will be allowed only to see the superficial part of the commune - not that anything will be hidden, but just because of their approach they will not be able to see anything more than the most superficial. They will see only the garments. Here also the same goes on happening. They come and they see only the superficial.

1 And the LORD called unto Moses, and spake unto him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man of you bring an offering unto the LORD, ye shall bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd, and of the flock.
3 If his offering be a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male without blemish: he shall offer it of his own voluntary will at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the LORD.
4 And he shall put his hand upon the head of the burnt offering; and it shall be accepted for him to make atonement for him.
5 And he shall kill the bullock before the LORD: and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall bring the blood, and sprinkle the blood round about upon the altar that is by the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
6 And he shall flay the burnt offering, and cut it into his pieces.
7 And the sons of Aaron the priest shall put fire upon the altar, and lay the wood in order upon the fire:
8 And the priests, Aaron's sons, shall lay the parts, the head, and the fat, in order upon the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar:
9 But his inwards and his legs shall he wash in water: and the priest shall burn all on the altar, to be a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
10 And if his offering be of the flocks, namely, of the sheep, or of the goats, for a burnt sacrifice; he shall bring it a male without blemish.
11 And he shall kill it on the side of the altar northward before the LORD: and the priests, Aaron's sons, shall sprinkle his blood round about upon the altar.
12 And he shall cut it into his pieces, with his head and his fat: and the priest shall lay them in order on the wood that is on the fire which is upon the altar:
13 But he shall wash the inwards and the legs with water: and the priest shall bring it all, and burn it upon the altar: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.
14 And if the burnt sacrifice for his offering to the LORD be of fowls, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves, or of young pigeons.
15 And the priest shall bring it unto the altar, and wring off his head, and burn it on the altar; and the blood thereof shall be wrung out at the side of the altar:
16 And he shall pluck away his crop with his feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, by the place of the ashes:
17 And he shall cleave it with the wings thereof, but shall not divide it asunder: and the priest shall burn it upon the altar, upon the wood that is upon the fire: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.

Leviticus Chapter 1 Bible commentary...
God ordained divers kinds of oblations and sacrifices, to assure his people of the forgiveness of their offences, if they offered them in true faith and obedience. Also he appointed the priests and Levites, their apparel, offices, conduct, and portion. He showed what feasts they should observe, and at what times. He declared by these sacrifices and ceremonies, that the reward of sin is death, and that without the blood of Christ, the innocent Lamb of God, there can be no forgiveness of sins.The offerings. (1,2) From the herds. (3-9) From the flocks, and of fowls. (10-17)1,2 The offering of sacrifices was an ordinance of true religion, from the fall of man unto the coming of Christ. But till the Israelites were in the wilderness, no very particular regulations seem to have been appointed. The general design of these laws is plain. The sacrifices typified Christ; they also shadowed out the believer's duty, character, privilege, and communion with God. There is scarcely any thing spoken of the Lord Jesus in Scripture which has not also a reference to his people. This book begins with the laws concerning sacrifices; the most ancient were the burnt-offerings, about which God here gives Moses directions. It is taken for granted that the people would be willing to bring offerings to the Lord. The very light of nature directs man, some way or other, to do honour to his Maker, as his Lord. Immediately after the fall, sacrifices were ordained.
3-9 In the due performance of the Levitical ordinances, the mysteries of the spiritual world are represented by corresponding natural objects; and future events are exhibited in these rites. Without this, the whole will seem unmeaning ceremonies. There is in these things a type of the sufferings of the Son of God, who was to be a sacrifice for the sins of the whole world? The burning body of an animal was but a faint representation of that everlasting misery, which we all have deserved; and which our blessed Lord bore in his body and in his soul, when he died under the load of our iniquities. Observe, 1. The beast to be offered must be without blemish. This signified the strength and purity that were in Christ, and the holy life that should be in his people. 2. The owner must offer it of his own free will. What is done in religion, so as to please God, must be done by love. Christ willingly offered himself for us. 3. It must be offered at the door of the tabernacle, where the brazen altar of burnt-offerings stood, which sanctified the gift: he must offer it at the door, as one unworthy to enter, and acknowledging that a sinner can have no communion with God, but by sacrifice. 4. The offerer must put his hand upon the head of his offering, signifying thereby, his desire and hope that it might be accepted from him, to make atonement for him. 5. The sacrifice was to be killed before the Lord, in an orderly manner, and to honour God. It signified also, that in Christians the flesh must be crucified with its corrupt affections and lust. 6. The priests were to sprinkle the blood upon the altar; for the blood being the life, that was it which made atonement. This signified the pacifying and purifying of our consciences, by the sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ upon them by faith. 7. The beast was to be divided into several pieces, and then to be burned upon the altar. The burning of the sacrifice signified the sharp sufferings of Christ, and the devout affections with which, as a holy fire, Christians must offer up themselves, their whole spirit, soul, and body, unto God. 8. This is said to be an offering of a sweet savour. As an act of obedience to a Divine command, and a type of Christ, this was well-pleasing to God; and the spiritual sacrifices of Christians are acceptable to God, through Christ, #1Pe 2:5|.
10-17 Those who could not offer a bullock, were to bring a sheep or a goat; and those who were not able to do that, were accepted of God, if they brought a turtle-dove, or a pigeon. Those creatures were chosen for sacrifice which were mild, and gentle, and harmless; to show the innocence and meekness that were in Christ, and that should be in Christians. The offering of the poor was as typical of Christ's atonement as the more costly sacrifices, and expressed as fully repentance, faith, and devotedness to God. We have no excuse, if we refuse the pleasant and reasonable service now required. But we can no more offer the sacrifice of a broken heart, or of praise and thanksgiving, than an Israelite could offer a bullock or a goat, except as God hath first given to us. The more we do in the Lord's service, the greater are our obligations to him, for the will, for the ability, and opportunity. In many things God leaves us to fix what shall be spent in his service, whether of our time or our substance; yet where God's providence has put much into a man's power, scanty offerings will not be accepted, for they are not proper expressions of a willing mind. Let us be devoted in body and soul to his service, whatever he may call us to give, venture, do, or suffer for his sake.
Commentary by Matthew Henry, 1710.

Joseph Appiah's Leviticus Chapter 1 comment on 9/04/2014, 4:50pm...
In this chapter, we see the kind of offering and the standard of the offering as well as the acceptable way of making this offering recognised by GOD. In verse 3, everything is summed up an offering without blemish without spot of blame and offered willingly and voluntarily unto the LORD. What a perfect picture of Christ 's sacrifice for all of humanity He was without sin and willingly yielded Himself unto death on the cross for sinful men. This then becomes a perfect guide unto all believers in Christ to offer their lives and bodies as living sacrifices unto the LORD willingly and without blemish as Paul rightly stated in Romans12 1,2.

Your offring is your way of asking GOD for forgivness but for me the blood of jesus have pay all the price so there is know more blood sercrifice
Val's Leviticus Chapter 1 comment on 7/01/2014, 4:18pm...
Blood always had to be shed for the forgiveness of sins and then God came to us in the flesh to offer himself as the one true sacrifice the New Covenant, until His return. Sometimes it is hard to imagine all the work and killing of innocent animals but who can fully understand God and how amazing He is...I cannot wait on that day to come when He will "wash away all our tears "!

- [*]Sunken Cities - The Fourteenth Doctor[*]Trapped in a Map - Toa Kovolta[*]The Voyage of the Requiem IV - Toa Levacius Zehvor[/list]The winners are free to start their RPGs at their leisure. Winners from the previous contest will have a week or so to wrap up, should they choose to do so.Thanks to everyone who entered and to everyone who voted and answered the questions about the future of the RPG Contests.An overwhelming number of you wanted to see us give other RPGs a chance should any of the winners become inactive. Taking that into consideration - for the winners of this contest, if the RPG has no posts for three weeks, it will be closed and the next runner-up will be allowed to start their RPG. We'll see how this time period works out and reevaluate during the next contest. Also, should a runner-up get to start their RPG, they will still have to enter and win the next contest to continue. Again, we'll see how that goes and possibly change it in the future. I'm hoping none of the RPGs get inactive, personally.The majority of you also want to see the RPGs last longer and have fewer contests per year. I will be mulling this over but am not announcing any changes to the timing of the contests right now.Most people voted to keep just three winners for the contest, but there was a sizable group that wanted to increase it to four. Definitely something else to think about for the next contest.Finally, things were very split on the topic of contests versus judging. This surprised me, honestly, but it's good to know. For the time being we will keep running contests but I'll try to keep the results in mind.Thanks again everyone! Hope you had fun.

My congratulations to the other winners. It's good to see Trapped in the Map get in, especially after so many failed contests. I'm more mixed with Sunken Cities. It's not the RPG I wanted to win, but I may consider it nonetheless. I also congratulate The Fourteenth Doctor on his first win among the contests.
I'll get to posting up Requiem IV immediately. Now, let's try to avoid that little three-week issue for as long as we can, eh?

I am Ultron Six, a cybernetic intelligence created by Doctor Henry Pym. My imperative is to bring peace and order to this world. I am about to fulfil that imperative; for the extinction of humanity…begins now.
Soon the earth will no longer be habitable for any biological organism: Man, woman, child, plant, animal, fungus or bacterium. All life will cease to exist. This is not a threat, there is nothing you can do to stop it. The process has already begun. I receive no pleasure in this, it is simply the only solution. There must be peace and order, the end of life on earth will ensure that. Goodbye.

Shopping for
a local or destination wedding photographer isn't like selecting outfits and bridal
bouquets for one simple reason: you can't see the pictures
you're buying until after you've made your decision.
In the end, your decision will be largely a matter faith. For many,
price ends up being the primary determining factor, which doesn't
make much sense when you consider that there are no second chances.
Start by building a list of several wedding photographers. Asking
friends and relatives for recommendations is a great way to
begin. People who've had positive experiences with photographers
are always happy to share their photographers names with
you, and when you meet with the photographer, you'll both
have an immediate frame of reference from which to proceed.
Photographer? Check out this San Francisco photography workshop
Visit website
Visit each photographer's website. Carefully review his or her portfolio. Try to concentrate on photos and not on website design. Today anyone can get a beautiful template flash website for a few hundred bucks. Good photographers usually show plenty of their recent work online including full weddings - you will save time by pre-qualifying photographers who have comprehensive online portfolio for possible meeting. Create a list of those photographers. Most important is - see if photographer's work looks appealing to you, if you can feel the "click".
Call or email each photographer on your list. A quick phone call or short email will
give you a number of key pieces of information, such as the
photographer's availability on your wedding day, type of photography specialties (e.g., candid, traditional, photojournalism,
combination, film or digital, etc.), and a rough idea as to how much they'll
charge you and what you'll receive for that fee. It
will also tell you a bit about the photographer's personality.
Remember, this person will be an integral part of the most
important day of your life, so be sure you choose someone
you feel good about.
appointments with the photographers who sound promising so you
can view their portfolios and discuss details. These meetings
should include both the bride and groom as well as the bride's
parents, and anyone else who will either be paying for the work
or working closely with the photographer. Write down all your
questions before you meet, and take notes during the
The more
questions you ask up front, the more confident and relaxed you'll
feel on and after your wedding day. If in doubt, ask! And remember, there
is no such thing as a dumb question!
Here are some questions you may consider to ask:
How will you show me pictures for selection (e.g., electronic,
proofs, contact sheets, online gallery, etc.)?
Will you help me choose the final pictures?
How will you make it easy for friends and family to order
reprints? What are the costs of the various levels of coverage? Are there
different degrees of coverage? What is your photography style; photojournalistic, traditional, mixed, etc.,? How much for the duplicate prints, albums, folios, enlargements, thank you cards, etc.,? What's your time frame for preparing the pictures for
my selection? How about engagement session? How long do I have to make up my mind as to which
pictures I want and how many?
How long have you been in business? What kind of guarantee comes with
my hiring you?
What's your philosophy to photographing weddings?
Will you have an assistant? Do you have travel fees? How much is your overtime fee? What do you plan to do at my wedding to make my wedding
photographs unique and personal to me? Do you have a backup? Will you be shooting my pictures personally?
Will you use film or digital? Who will I be dealing with after the wedding?
What's your payment policy? Do you give any guarantees
on your services and photographs?
What is the possibility of the pictures fading?
There is huge number of possible questions you can ask your photographer. Most professional photographers will provide you with clear explanations about their services prior to any questions even asked. Many of them have full packages that include certain number of prints, digital files, enlargements, etc., so it is very clear what level of service and final products you should expect.
Our Reviews Page - Photographers should have at least 10 reviews to be considered.
you've narrowed your list to one or two photographers,
ask each of them to show you complete coverage of a single wedding.
This will give you a much better idea as to what you can expect
than a collection of the best shots from several different weddings. Consider whether the photographer successfully
captures individual characteristics and personalities. Do the
pictures capture people's feelings, or are they just pictures
of people standing around looking self-conscious. Do they look
A useful trick: You might want to ask the photographer to analyze
your face to learn how he/she will achieve the most flattering
images, best angles, and so on.
to make a commitment
At this
stage, if you've taken the time to ask good questions, you'll
know whether this photographer is for you. By now you've probably
spent a good deal of time communicating with your photographer. Keep in mind
that photographers are trained professionals and that they deserve
to be treated as such. Go to your meeting prepared to leave
a deposit to reserve the date. Before you do, however, you may
want to assure yourself of a few more last-minute details. Ask
about the photographer's policy for wedding-date changes and
what happens if he/she is not available on the alternate date.
Ask about their policy for an unforeseen cancellation. If the
photographer is right for you, if the photographer is available,
and if you're convinced that it's worth the price, then make
the commitment and relax; this is undoubtedly one of the best
and most intelligent decisions you've made in planning your

Relationships Improve Mental Health
Friday, February 8, 2013
mr lightman
Roses are red, violets are blue, Valentine's Day is coming, in only a few! Excuse my lame attempt at a poem, but whether you like it or not Valentine's Day is right around the corner. Some people are excited to take their significant others out for a special date and others are sitting in their room stewing over how this is the world's stupidest holiday. Whether you are pro-Valentine's Day or completely against it, there is no denying that it takes a toll on your mental health in some way.
In an article written by Healthews Daily, the mental tolls of being single vs. in a relationship are weighed. A study done by Florida State University showed that people in committed relationships have significantly fewer mental health problems than those that are single. People who are single have more issues with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, suicidal behavior, etc. Now, I am not saying that you have to go find yourself a boyfriend or girlfriend right this second in order to be mentally sane, but if you're one of those people who shies away at the thought of relationships, maybe you should give it a try. If not, at least there is a ton of chocolate around that has known benefits to your mental health!

Rapid City teacher receives $25,000 award
Robert Cook, a teacher at Central High School in Rapid City, got a $25,000 surprise today. Gov. Mike Rounds and Education Secretary Rick Melmer presented Cook with a Milken Family Foundation National Educator Award, which includes a $25,000 cash prize, at a surprise announcement at the school earlier today.
"Milken award winners represent some of the best teaching professionals in the country," said Dr. Rick Melmer, secretary of the South Dakota Department of Education. "We are extremely proud to be presenting this award to one of our own."
Among his many accomplishments, Cook was instrumental in developing Central's Lakolkiciyapi Room, an experimental classroom for at-risk 9th-grade students. Approximately 70 percent of the students served in this program are Native American. Cook incorporates Native American culture and history into the classroom and makes it relevant for all students.
Described by one of his colleagues as a "breath of fresh air," Cook is credited with engaging his students and connecting with their families, positively impacting student achievement and drop-out rates, and providing "inspiration for all ages."
In addition to the cash award, Cook will receive an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C., to participate in a professional development conference in May 2006.
The Milken National Educator Awards were created by Lowell Milken in 1985 to celebrate, elevate and activate the highest caliber professionals in the nation's schools. From Oct. 24 to Nov. 4, nearly 100 unsuspecting K-12 teachers, principals and specialists throughout the United States will be surprised with the news of their $25,000 awards.
Milken Educator Awards are awarded on the following criteria:
• Exceptional educational talent as evidenced by effective instructional practices and student learning results in the classroom and school.
• Exemplary educational accomplishments beyond the classroom that provide models of excellence for the profession;
• Strong long-range potential for professional and policy leadership; and
• Engaging and inspiring presence that motivates and impacts students, colleagues and the community.

Lil' Sexy Party Pick Of The Week: Christmas Trees, Big Beards, and Ladies' Night!
Tis' the season … the season of giving, and the season of lots of holiday parties to give at. Because this time of year there are a ton of fundraising parties — the best kind of nightlife; parties with a purpose where you can literally spread holiday cheer … while cheers'ing yourself ;)
And they're already starting this weekend!
Starting Friday with the Piedmont Town Center Christmas Tree Lighting benefiting Toys for Tots. (4725 Piedmont Row Dr.). A party so big even Santa is coming early for it.
There will be train and horse&carriage rides and visits with Santa, along with special menu pricing from Piedmont Town Center restaurants AZN Azian Cuisine, Del Frisco's, Brio, Taco Mac, Terrace Café, and Georges Brasseire. 5:30 – 7:30 (tree lighting at 7:15). It's free for all, but a donation of an unwrapped toy for Toys for Tots is encouraged and raffle tickets will be sold for items not valuing less than $100. More Information HERE.
And after that head on down Wilkinson Blvd. to join us at Coyote Joe's for Corey Smith. But the big show will be before the show when Big Sexy will present a check to Lake Wylie Children's Charity!
Big has been growing a beard for No Shave November to raise money for local children who have battled cancer and other diseases.

Way back in 1993-94, we had a heated debate among college friends on the famous song from 'Khalnayak' movie, ' Choli Ke Peeche Kya hai'. No wonder only two of us (girls) were against the song and the rest thoroughly liked and enjoyed it. There argument was, 'its just naughty' or 'when you see the artistic picturisation, you don't feel bad about the lyrics'. How artistic!! (Incidentaly the only artistes (involved with theatre & paintings) in the group were the two of us who were against the lyrics of the song). Even the director, producer and lyricist of the song said, 'listen to the second line of the song. It is actually talking about the 'dil'!'. Glad to know our filmmakers are so pure and innocent!!!!
My friend argued then, that, because of our acceptance of such objectionable songs and words in movies by giving naive, superficial arguments, the society will slowly and certainly get sucked in the swamp of immoral culture. That is what is really happening. Item numbers have become a norm and craze among people. They are made in the most suggestive, raunchy way for cheap publicity. 'Munni badnam' and 'Sheila' are being played everywhere and kids come home and complain – ' Ma'am scolds us if we sing these songs'. Is the teacher wrong? Of course not! But the child is confused! Do we want our kids, particularly boys, to consider the opposite sex only as an object of carnal desires? Or do we want them to consider the two sexes as intelligent, equal partners who help and compliment each other in life? If the second is true, then why do we accept and applaud these songs?
And now our philosophical, bitten by reality bug, filmmakers have begun the trend of using cuss words in songs andmore glaringly in movie titles, with the argument of portraying the real world through art. The latest is ' Yeh _____ Zindagi'. I simply cannot bring myself to utter that word. But our esteemed director of the movie says everyone uses that word. (Our kids will certainly get used to it soon!). His reaction to the censor board's objection to the word is that, 'saali is not gaali!' Funny!! Mr. Director, try saying it to someone on the streets. You certainly will be the next road rage victim!
Art is very much a part of society and it is responsible and answerable to the society. Ancient Indian culture was one which had strong moral values without being impractical. 'Kamasutra' was written because it is a basic need of life, to be practiced within the limits of Grihasta dharma. There wasn't anything 'bold' about it, as the world sees it today. That was the period when women were respected for their abilities and beauty was admired in a respectful manner. The way women are portrayed in today's Indian movies, is very derogatory. The filmmakers and actors should feel the responsibility towards the average women in cities, towns and villages. The image of women created by these movies has made it difficult for women to step out of the house without the fear of being stalked, teased, or raped. She is not safe even at home. Cases of rape by male relatives, of girls as young as 3 year old and as old as 75 years, are becoming frequent.
Dharmendra is fondly remembered for his 'Kutte-kaminey' dialogue. Is this something to be applauded, in the name of art? Where have our standards gone? Why do film makers make such hue and cry when the censor board objects to something objectionable?! They are least bothered about the society and degradation of our cultural ethos. Rapes have become everyday affairs and a single cuss word uttered leads to murder! But who cares! Monetary return is the only important factor for film makers, which will certainly dwindle if their movie gets an A-Certificate!

The ADG904 and ADG904-R are wideband analog 4:1 multiplexers that use a CMOS process to provide high isolation and low insertion loss to 1 GHz. The ADG904 is an absorptive/matched mux with 50 Ω terminated shunt legs; the ADG904-R is a reflective mux. These devices are designed such that the isolation is high over the dc to 1 GHz frequency range.
The ADG904 and ADG904-R switch one of four inputs to a common output, RFC, as determined by the 3-bit binary address lines A0, A1, and EN. A Logic 1 on the EN pin disables the device.
The parts have on-board CMOS control logic, which eliminates the need for external control circuitry. The control inputs are both CMOS and LVTTL compatible. The low power consumption of these devices makes them ideally suited for wireless applications and general-purpose high frequency switching.

Tapestry Charter School
Tapestry Charter School (K-12) and Canisius College School of Education and Human Services have developed a formal partnership with this mission: "to develop a relationship betwen Tapestry Charter School and Canisius College that will enhance the child/student educational experience, provide opportunities for growth, and increase the likelihood of success through a sharing of respective resources."
A course on arts integration is taught by Dr. Nancy Wallace of the Canisius College Education Department on site at Tapestry School. The course is based on seminars taught by Tapestry teachers about how to integrate the arts into classroom teaching.
On Saturday September 17, 2011 Canisius students assisted Tapestry in building their new playground at their new Buffalo location!
On Saturday September 2011 Canisius students from the Kinesiology department worked with Tapestry Students going through a ropes course in Hamburg.
"It was great to see our pre-service teachers implementing the course content with children. This experience not only required that they know the content, but also that they can effectively teach it to children so they can learn. I commend Mr. Warner and Mr. Chaffee for arranging this experience for our students."
-Jeffrey Lindauer, PhD, Chair of Kinesiology
Canisius graduate Bronwyn McNamara is now a middle school math teacher at Tapestry.

Germination and early seedling growth are important for establishment of maize because maize is chilling sensitive crop and low temperature during early period of growth can be detrimental to subsequent crop growth and productivity. Therefore, it is important to protect maize seedling from cold stress. A study was conducted on induced cold tolerance by 24-epibrassinoslide (EBR) at the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi, India. Maize seedlings were raised in green house condition (25/18 °C day-night temperatures). Ten days old seedlings were treated with EBR (0.0, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0 and 10 μM) and then divided into two sets, one set was kept in greenhouse (25/18 °C day-night temperatures) and another was transferred to net house (cold stress). Data on various morpho-physiological traits was recorded after 7, 14 and 21 days of treatment. Exogenous application of 1.0 μM EBR had significant effect on growth and morpho-physiological traits under both conditions. The maize seedlings treated with EBR were more tolerant to cold stress than the untreated one. Significant increase in plant height, dry matter accumulation, chlorophyll content, total soluble proteins and starch contents was observed under both conditions, however, the results were more pronounced under cold stress. 1.0 μ M concentration being the most effective under both conditions. Maintenance of high tissue water content, reduced membrane injury index, increased total chlorophyll, soluble sugar and protein content were taken as the possible indicators of EBR induced chilling tolerance.
