Surf Excel - Common sense

Hope you folks have noticed Surf excel's advertisement commonsense. As a person from marketing department, I just wanted to be in common sense list by trying surf excel with my top loading washing machine. My wife and I had a lengthy argument about this and she doubted about the validity of this ad and it would be full of marketing jargon. At the end of the argument, I decided to purchase the top loading powder and experiment it. Obviously, I obtained the same results of 50% purity which was similar to the normal surf excel. After that I tried with Ariel and it produced say around 70% purity. So my advise is please have common sense.

Thanks,

New year 2010

Shutters down for 2009 and we have entered the new year 2010. Last year, I took a resolution to respect traffic signals. I ended up with the ratio of 70:30 with initial 7 months I respected and after that I didn't. But this time I have planned to carry forward this resolution and aimed to take another resolution as well. I would want to read at least 20 books for this full year which will roughly cost you 2 books per month types. I don't know even I might think that it would be like a target in sales which could be ever achieved. But let me see and at least make it 80:20. And another sub resolution is I need to read a new article on a day to day basis and 2 posts per month. I believe these activities will help me to bolster my thirst for knowledge initiative and hunger to improve my skills as well.

For this month, I have taken the famous book Winning from Jack Welch

Thanks,
