IIT's 4th annual Pumpkin launch
It's a bird! It's a plane! No, its not even superman. A pumpkin?? Yes, a pumpkin.Today was IIT's 4th annual Pumpkin launch held at Ed Glancy baseball field.
This year was no let down as teams of students and faculty worked months to create a contraption to launch these long pulpy deep-yellow round fruit (yes, it's a fruit!) in the air straight down to oblivion.
Please be aware, many pumpkins were harmed in the making of this blog.=)
UPDATE: Big Bertha was this year's champion! The team was composed of members of the IIT student chapters of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and American Society Of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). They broke years winning launch by 50 feet, setting a new IIT Pumpkin Launch record at 284 feet. Congratulations!!

"Job Search Site"
I have read on many formus and blogs regarding EmplomentCrossing and I want to state that ''EmploymentCrossing is not a Scam'' because Including
myself many of my known has got Jobs from EmplomentCrossing. You can search jobs with easy as the classification is very good in terms of cities and type of Job.
It also help in giving guidance to Job Seekers.
Latest jobs are given on this site as soon they are avaible in a particular area or before any other site posts that as It shows the jobs from direct Recruiters and no third party is involved in between for making money.
The number of jobs given is also guite big as compared to other sites. Jobs are included from most of the fortune 500 companies.
When I was jobless and searching for job on every second site only this site helped me to find a Job. So do not come under influence of people who say that its a scam. Just go through it once and you will feel the difference.
