The first military X was the Turtle (1775), a hand-powered acorn-shaped device designed by the American David

Bushnell to accommodate a single person. In 1800, France built a human-powered X designed by American Robert

Fulton, the Nautilus. The French eventually gave up on the experiment in 1804, as did the British when they later

considered Fulton's X design. Turtle was the first verified X capable of independent underwater operation and

movement, and the first to use screws for propulsion.

Leap  Second

A leap second is a one-second adjustment that is occasionally applied to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) in order to keep its time of day close to the mean solar time, or UT1. Without such a correction, time reckoned by Earth's rotation drifts away from atomic time because of irregularitiesin the Earth's rate of rotation. Since this system of correction was implemented in 1972, 25 such leap seconds have been inserted. The most recent one happened on June 30, 2012 at 23:59:60 UTC. A leap second was again inserted on June 30, 2015 at 23:59:60 UTC.

• Colgate   was   originally   founded   in   1806   by   a   soap   and   candle   maker   named   William  Colgate.   They   started   by   selling   soap,   candles,   and   starch.   Colgate   didn’t   start   selling  toothpaste  until  1873  and  they  sold  it  by  the  jar.  

• The   telecom  giant  got   its  start   in  Finland   in  1865,  when  Fredrik   Idestam  opened  a  pulp  mill  and  started  making  paper  on  the  banks  of  Tammerkoski.  The  company  later  bounced  around  a  number  of  industries  before  getting  serious  about  phones  in  the  1960s.  

• The   sprawling   holding   company   helmed   by   Warren   Buffett   was   originally   a   textile  manufacturer  that  took  off  in  1839.  Buffett  took  control  in  1962,  though,  and  by  1967  he  started  to  move  outside  of  textiles  into  insurance  and  other  sectors.  

• Like  Colgate,  the  William  Wrigley  Jr.  Company  started  by  selling  soap  and  baking  powder  in   1891.   Like  Avon,  William  Wrigley   began   by   selling   his   products   door-­‐to-­‐door   and   he  enticed  his  customers  by  packaging  each  can  of  baking  powder  with  chewing  gum.  

• Fusajiro   Yamauchi   founded   Nintendo   in   1889   as   a   playing   card   company.   The   game,  Hanafuda,  became  very  popular  in  Japan  but  they  knew  the  market  wasn’t  that  big.  So  they  began  to  experiment  in  other  industries.  Between  1963  and  1968,  Nintendo  set  up  a  taxi  company,  a  hotel  chain,  a  TV  network,  and  a  food  company.

According to Odiya epicureans, the sweetmeat was first conceived at Puri Jagganath Temple 800 years ago then rolled

down to the bylanes of Kolkatta 600 years later. According to folklore, Pahala (a village on the outskirts of Bhubaneshwar) had a large number of cows. The village

would produce excess milk, and the villagers would throw it away when it became spoilt. When a priest from the Jagannath

Temple saw this, he taught them the art of making “X”. Nobin chandra introduced the spongy version of “X”

Baghawan Das Bagla, a Marwari has popularised the sweet as far as Uttar pradesh and Rajasthan. Sanskrit meaning of “X” is Juicy Ball.
