Its fun to break our regular diet and munch on the eye catchy, tempting junk food. But after having a lazy, fat and unhealthy weekend, I realized the amount of calories I have accumulated and ways to burn them all. Oh wait, not just the calories I have in taken but lots of baleful capsules as well. Now its time to make a resolution, say yes to low fat nutritious food and exercises.

Well today’s article is a very important topic on which I have researched the most. You may wonder what the article is all about and what the title of the post suggests; Have patience! it’s worth reading. ‘Mozzie/mossie’ is a tern picked from Australian slang which refers to ‘mosquito’.

Something innovative, interesting, some science in it and a cost effective event. No, this time I cannot think something new. Let me conduct a quiz: no, it’s already there in the list of events. A crossword: no, it’s been done already. A collage: no, it’s quite old now. Something fresh, untried and enthralling event.

Evolutionary history says, we humans have copied the art of building from ants, bees and other species. They are rightly called as ‘biological architectures’. Can we humans build a nest how a weaver bird builds? Can we make a bee-comb like honey bees? Well let’s try mimicking them
