Random Thoughts
Social entrepreneurs are known for the creativity and innovation they bring to bear on the gaps in development. Whether tackling water or education, energy or sanitation, social entrepreneurs develop inventive ways to bring new solutions to social challenges. But, in all this creativity, they may be missing one of the larger issues at hand: employership, or, the generation of jobs where none existed before. Lest you confuse employership with entrepreneurship, allow me to elaborate. Entrepreneurship is a loaded word. There is pressure to launch a game-changing idea—or nothing at all. It asks for confidence and considerable chutzpah. It takes passion and an affinity for risk. To be an entrepreneur is to take the weight of the world on one’s shoulders in order to create something that no one has ever done before. It’s not something taken lightly, nor is it something many Indian families encourage.

Glass-Filled Rubies Update
According to AnchorCert gemologists at the Birmingham Assay Office in the U.K, a large number of glass filled rubies have entered the market without proper disclosure. These rubies in their natural form are poor quality corundum and are subjected to bleaching to remove dark patches of color, but this also affects their structure making them brittle and unstable. If doubtful always consult a reputed gem testing laboratory. www.anchorcert.co.uk
