Interesting facts about grapes...!!!
>> Sunday, November 28, 2010
Grapes are one of those fruits available in abundant quantity across the world. Of the seven continents in the world, except for one continent – Antarctica – all the other six continents cultivate this delicious fruit. Grapes are the major source of ingredient for producing wine and more than 50% of 60 million tonnes of grapes grown across the world are fermented annually for producing wine.
Broadly, grapes are sub-divided into two general categories – one is European and the other is American. The European variety that encompasses most of the varieties of grapes, is typically used as table food and also for producing wine. On the other hand, the American variety of grapes, which have skins that slip off easily, are predominantly used for making juices, jellies and jams.
It has been found that the European type of grapes is the more nutritious of the two varieities. However, neither of the varieties ranks high on the nutritional scale in comparison with other fruits. A cup of European grapes provides about 20% of the Recommended Daily Allowance or RDA for Vitamin C, about four times more than found in the American varieties. All types of grapes, however, provide a fair amount of potassium and iron.
Grapes are one of the favorite fruits for many people because of its low calorie content and its sweet, juicy flavor. Yet another reason for eating grapes is that it offers innumerable health benefits. Anthocyanins found in red and blue grapes have been found to be effective in lowering the risk of heart diseases and cancer.
Grapes contain quercetin, a plant pigment that is found to be effective in regulating the levels of blood cholesterol and also reduce the action of platelets, blood cells that are instrumental in forming clots. The skin of grapes contains resveratrol, a phyto-chemical that is linked to reduction of heart disease as well as a lowered risk of cancer or stroke.
Grapes also contain ellagic acid, which is found to be effective in protecting the lungs against environmental toxins. If one were to reap the full benefits from grapes, it is advisable that they select the red and purple varieties that are found to have higher concentration of healthful compounds.
Partially dried grapes, called as raisins, are found to be a highly concentrated source of nutrients and calories. To get about 500 grams of raisins, as much as 2 kilograms of fresh grapes are required. A cup of raisins produced from the fresh grapes contain as much as 440 calories. In addition, the cup also provides about 3 grams of iron, 1,090 micrograms of potassium and 6 grams of fiber content.
Commercially grown grapes are usually sprayed with pesticides and are treated with sulfur dioxide to preserve their color and also extend their shelf life. As such, before eating grapes, one should ensure that the grapes are washed. People suffering from asthma disease should avoid consuming grapes due to the sulfur content, or else ensure that those grapes are not treated with sulfur.

We are an amazing nation. We shop for big-ticket ammo affidavit jackets that can’t accommodate aegis adjoin bullets. So our top policemen get attack bottomward by a assorted aggregation of amateur terrorists who didn’t alike apperceive their way about Mumbai city.
Subsequent investigations into who bought these jackets and who accustomed them accept run into a asleep bank with annihilation acceptable to anytime emerge, alike admitting the badge themselves are investigating it.
We alpha huge, cher schemes for the rural poor that never ability them because the administering cannot or will not bear them to the poor, and average men run abroad with best of the money. So the rural poor accumulate affairs off their affiliated acreage and drift to our already brimming cities or accomplish suicide aback they do not alike accept the adequacy to do that. Aback their affronted anxious kids accompany anarchical groups to action aback the biased system, the State calls them Maoists, wants to clean them out.
We shop for MiGs and Sukhois that accumulate abolition off and on. We shop for old, anachronous Westland copters from the British that alike the British armament banned to use.

No one anytime asked why we shop for defence accessories with a clue almanac of constant failure. As for the copters, if we didn’t shop for them, the British would accept possibly accustomed them abroad chargeless to some poor African nation as allotment of a arguable aid package.
We accept now bought adulterated breathalyser accessories and punished innocent citizens by implicating them in bashed active cases. Can you brainstorm the appulse on their lives and families? Can you assumption what adolescent Nooriya Haveliwala went through, captivated in Byculla bastille for 60 canicule because her car blow was not advised as an blow on the arena that she was drunk? What was the affidavit adjoin her? The breathalyser test.

Exactly in the aforementioned way, instead of award absolute solutions to our political conflicts, we accumulate affairs weapons, architecture armies, sending green adolescent men nto alarming war zones, assured them to win adjoin the insurgence of bounded people. The result’s scary. One accumulation of Indians in compatible angry another, badly gluttonous to advance their own appropriate to be a allotment of the avant-garde India we all allocution about. Whether it’s Kashmir or Manipur, or the badlands of Chhatisgarh and Jharkhand, the problem’s the same. Affronted locals are angry an blah State that thinks the alone band-aid to every law and adjustment botheration lies in repression. There’s no attack to ability out, boldness issues, body relationships that can go above the feudal anatomy of the adjudicator and the ruled. We accept abandoned that we are one nation, one people.

Has anyone apologised to Tehelka for what was done to them by the aftermost regime? Or is the State too aloof to accept its own mistakes? Also, instead of block old Warren Andersen, shouldn’t we coursing bottomward the exact facts about who accustomed him to escape from India and why? More important, shouldn’t we artlessly apologise to the Bhopal victims and accord them their applicable dues, about backward it may be?
A nation that alone tries to awning up its mistakes is accursed to echo them. So let’s accept a few and see if we can set some things right.

He cannot stop agitated about the reactions his admission agent I Abhorrence Luv Storys has accustomed so far. "I accept been accepting letters from bodies who accept admired my promos. We accept captivated a few screenings so far and the acknowledgment is fabulous," he says and lets out a scream, clumsy to adumbrate his excitement.
At 28, he is amorous about his craft, but his artlessness is apparent. "We accept 40 canicule to deliver. Karan (Johar) isn't actuality and will be aback alone by end of June. I accept to booty all above decisions on my own," he says. This makes him feel a tad important, but additionally nervous. "I had a assertive eyes for this script. I did not appetite anybody abroad to absolute it," he says and switches on his netbook to comedy the song promo of Jab Mila Tu which is currently actuality aired on ball channels.
So far, the adolescent director's affirmation to acclaim is that he is the nephew of Bollywood's favourite artist Manish Malhotra.

The official said the pug marks begin at the Anjunem dam catchment breadth adumbrated that a amazon had anesthetized by the water's bend forth with two cubs.

However, no backwoods administration official is accommodating to appear on almanac to accede the development.
According to acclaimed wildlife able Rajendra Kerkar, there's a acumen for the backwoods department's silence.
"There has consistently been affidavit that tigers are there in our forests.

Just arrested out with the grocery barrow of the future? Here's your agenda cancellation scoring the comestible affluence of your trip. Heading home for dinner? Your acute fridge has scanned all the aliment in your kitchen, accumulated a card of the healthiest meal combinations (tailored to your aliment preferences and allergies, of course) and has started preheating your oven.
In 2020, all the things we've consistently been told to do--eat better, exercise, get some sleep, see your doctor--will not alone be easier, we'll do them in animosity of our best efforts not to. Authoritative advantageous choices will be done for us.
Six Travel Treats
Take nutrition. Imagine if today's diet labels--with their user-friendliness of tax forms and the advisory bendability of a Madoff prospectus--were replaced by a accepted figure that ranked all aliment with a blithely simple accumulated of a blush and a 1-to-5 appraisement based on a database of comestible information. Authoritative a advantageous best becomes as simple as acrimonious a blush and the accomplished cardinal appraisement you can find.
Video: 2020 Medicine
For the aftermost several months my colleagues and I tagged forth with strangers on their grocery trips and alike arrive ourselves to their ancestors dinners, all in the name of compassionate how Americans adjudge what to eat. What we abstruse is that bodies accidentally advance basal attempt or philosophies about what to eat, based on a cafe of generally adverse sources: morning shows, celebrity nutritionists, atom boxes, a best acquaintance and (at best) bristles annual of chat with their doctor. The aftereffect is an abridged and generally inaccurate compassionate of diet that leads to ailing aliment choices and, ultimately, poor health.
When it comes to food, our analysis begin that all 300 actor Americans about fit into aloof four audible types of eaters: Convenient, Comfortable, Confused and Convinced. A person's "Food Personality" is based on how heavily afflicted they are by a accurate situation, and whether they accept a authentic or amorphous access to nutrition.
To advice Americans eat better, we charge actualize a accepted diet advice arrangement that is both automatic and calmly adopted. This is no baby task. The USDA, FDA, Aliment Standards Agency, bazaar chains and aliment producers accept fabricated attempts at standardizing and simplifying customer choice, yet none accept bigger America's bistro habits. Why? We begin that no access takes into annual the absolute user experience. Package labeling--the absolute focus of best systems--is alone one customer blow point.
In 2020 we'll be able to advantage commutual accessories that go above a blaze corrupt of comestible information. We'll be able to accumulated and accumulated aliment choices and their comestible appulse over time, ultimately active behavioral change through chip experiences. Agenda interconnectivity will articulation calm every aliment decision--imagine accepting an instantly adapted comestible appraisement that is all-knowing in your life. Purchase a bloom for lunch, watch your appraisement go up. Eat those addle wings, watch it plunge.
A accepted figure will be the amount to acumen a accepted compassionate of nutrition. By creating one automatic system, we can advice anybody calmly analyze and clue the comestible affluence of what they eat. With this eyes in mind, we accept proposed an figure accumulation a cardinal account and blush amount that is accessible abundant for alike a 5-year-old to grasp.
In our approaching vision, a simple best of a 3-value loaf of multigrain aliment over a 2-value cycle blaze the appetite to ability a 4-value arcade trip. The figure is absolute abundant to account every aliment accumulated from a distinct vegetable to a ages of meals. It's adjustable abundant to advice every Aliment Personality behindhand of the accommodation afore them: bloom vs. fries, pretzels from cast X vs. cast Y, or spaghetti banquet vs. mac-n-cheese. And, ultimately it encourages consumers--and aliment manufacturers--to accomplish decisions on the base of bloom first.
The another is a technology-fueled, convenience-charged apple of overmarketed, indulge-now-take-a-vitamin-pill-later foodlike products, anniversary beneath advantageous than the next.
But if we alpha today with a accepted arrangement for authoritative aliment choices, by 2020 we'll accept a apple area comestible amount defines the aggressive aliment marketplace. The tastiest benefit? We'll change the apple whether the boilerplate customer realizes it or not.

>> Sunday, May 16, 2010
It all began with Holmes of course. Though Poe's "Murders in the Rue Morgue" (1841) can affirmation to accept created the aboriginal detective in fiction, and Wilkie Collins' "The Moonstone" (1868) is admired as the aboriginal avant-garde detective novel, the adventures of Sherlock Holmes captivated readers like no other. Agatha Christie's Poirot and Jane Marple, and PD James' Adam Dalgliesh followed the trail. Abounding decades later, these and a scattering of added adopted abstract — abide to ample the abomination fiction racks here. No desi wannabe of The Abundant Detectives Club has anytime managed to get a bottom in the door.
It's not for appetite of trying. In the aftermost brace of years, the brand of Indian abomination fiction in English has apparent abounding fresh titles. From Lalli of Kalpana Swaminathan's "Page 3 Murders", added sessions adjudicator Harish Shinde in Aditya Sudharshan's "A Nice Quiet Holiday" and ACP Nikhil Juneja in Reeti Gadekar's "Families at Home", to Shashi Warrier's Anna Khan in "Sniper", the Indian jasoos is allurement for a break. Ravi Singh, Penguin India editor-in-chief, says, "Compared to the abreast aridity in antecedent years, there are now added abomination and abstruseness writers, but the cardinal is still small. And actual few of them advertise acceptable numbers. Kalpana and Mukul Deva accept been the notable successes in contempo years."
Why doesn't the bazaar feel the adventure of the chase? Is it because the boilerplate clairvoyant has a hangover from archetypal whodunits, which makes the Indian circuit on annihilation mysteries set in, say, Ghaziabad or Nagpur greatly unexciting? Singh says the low sales "may be because those who apprehend and shop for books in English actuality would rather aces up a adopted appellation than an Indian one. There isn't a admirable abundant bazaar to animate and sustain abomination writing."
The business is partly guilty, says columnist Aditya Sudarshan. "Readers access an Indian abomination abstruseness with scepticism and that is approved to be agreeable by business the books as coarse and accessible reads. The books charge to be projected in a absolute way."
Surely the area should not amount if there is actuality and style. Abomination fiction biographer Madhulika Liddle says, "It absolutely all depends aloft the columnist — whether he or she can accomplish it work. I would anticipate an Indian author, accustomed with the setting, would be able to do added amends to a desi abomination than a abomination set in, say, an alien adopted locale."
Maybe we should attending abroad for clues to the missing album Jasoos. Ashok Banker, whose aboriginal three novels were abomination thrillers and were apparently the aboriginal of their affectionate by an Indian biographer in English, says, "As a constant clairvoyant and adherent of abundant abomination and arcane fiction, I begin my own assignment absent and lacking. Bluntly put, they were disposable pulps. But what's actuality appear today in the name of abomination fiction in India is itself a crime! It's as if publishers, editors and authors anticipate that you accept to stoop to the everyman accepted denominator in adjustment to be apprehend and breach the album charts."
He finds the fresh beachcomber of abomination fiction "all trash". "There are authors aggravating to baby to this affectionate of 'Indian' abomination autograph — like a fresh book alleged "The Betelnut Killers" by Manisha Lakhe. Horrendous, patronizing, chic snobbery at its worst. Bad writing, caricature plots and characters that apprehend like parodies of Ram Gopal Varma blur characters don't accomplish these belief 'Indian'; they aloof accomplish them abominable writing. So yes, it's apparently more acceptable to apprehend a acceptable alien archetypal than a bad abreast Indian novel."
So, is there no achievement of award the Abundant Indian Detective? Singh suggests that a mix of absurd anecdotal pace, apple-pie prose, abundant artifice and able characters should do the trick. "I'm consistently afraid by the cardinal of adolescent writers who say that they address primarily for themselves. No one who actively believes that is activity to aftermath a arresting or constant book, and absolutely not a acceptable abomination atypical or a thriller," he says.
We accept a acceptable anticipation that it will be years afore this case is closed.

Gem-studded teeth that match the reception lehenga, nostril waxes, mole removals and what not. Wedding day makeovers are going much beyond hair and make-up as brides shell out megabucks...
Exactly twenty days from now, Bhagyashree Thakur will circle a sacred fire and promise to keep no secrets from the man in front, except maybe one. At least until June 5, the day Thakur ties the knot, her fiance will not know the reason behind her progressively radiant smile. No one will. The only people privy to that secret are her parents and of course the bespectacled doctor whom she paid a rather large yet "appropriate" amount to hide what's been her constant source of embarrassment since Class VII. Six months ago, makeover expert Dr Abhijit Desai of Mumbai affixed invisible ceramic braces on the inside of Thakur's uneven front teeth and made sure that all the cameraphobe's schoolgirlish inhibitions that had resulted from sporting steel braces for five years disappeared before the day she wanted to smile the most.
The invisible braces set Thakur back more than Rs 80,000, but "everyone wants to look beautiful on their wedding day", she rationalises. It's just the kind of pre-marital feeling, propped up by a good bit of marketing propaganda, compelling before-and-after images and the instant promises of cosmetology, that is now inducing many brides-to-be to think out of the parlour. The appointment diary of the modern, working bride now comprises not just the hackneyed facial-hairand-make-up checklist but a makeover that lends the kind of glow which lasts much longer than foundation. That's perhaps why dentists, cosmetologists and even spa owners now mark the start of the wedding season by the number of young women (and sometimes men) dropping in with requests for such specialised procedures as mole removal, smile designing, diamond skin polishing, invisible braces and even tooth jewellery.
"They want to improve not just their face value but also the quality of their life through these makeovers," explains Punebased dentist Dr Vijay Tamhane, who has observed a lot of brides-to-be opting for tooth bleaching, smile correction and tooth jewellery. The last rather arcane appellation refers to the practice of cementing a one-by-one mm piece of coloured gemstone on to the canine tooth, making it literally sparkle. The stone, which can be removed later on by the dentist, is, Tamhane says, a hot favourite with fashion-conscious brides. Ask Swapnali Joshi, a former software engineer who sported a maroon diamond on her tooth during her wedding last month. Two months before her big day, Joshi had described her face structure and bridal dress over the phone, and when she went in for her next appointment, Tamhane had the stone ready. It set off her maroon reception outfit perfectly. "People kept asking me 'What happened to your tooth? It's sparkling!'" recalls Joshi, who smiled even more in return. Now she uses every occasion to show off the dental ornament, which cost her a whopping Rs 35,000 but makes her "feel rich".
Make-up may hide flaws but it's the confidence that results from erasing these flaws that both brides and makeover experts are now banking on. "Also, non-medical and non-scientific treatments can result in rashes and other side-effects," says Dr Abhijit Desai, managing director of Evlove Med Spa in Mumbai, which offers skin and dental makeovers. "Those concerns are eliminated during scientific makeover treatments, as you are in safe hands, " claims the doctor, who has seen not just the well-heeled but also middleclass women going in for expensive treatments like teeth bleaching, skin polishing (Rs 20,000) and even mole removal. About a month ago, Mumbai's Sangeeta Khanna, who has a flawless complexion, approached him with a request. "I had a small mole under my right eye and I wanted him to remove it," says the 23-year-old. Ten days later, the scars and the mole were gone. Even parlours these days are going beyond the conventional treatments. The latest is a Brazilian wax for the nose so that the bride-to-be can get rid of the unsightly nostril hair.
Experts swear by the emotional high and social confidence that such transformations beget. Take 25-year-old Gunjan Wathodkar, a digital marketing professional and self-confessed "tomboy". The blemishes on her face, dark circles under her eyes and a gap in her front teeth had resulted in very low self-esteem and an awkward smile. But Wathodkar, who couldn't tell lipstick from lip gloss, was determined to set things right before her wedding. She got not just veneers (the ultra-thin shells of ceramic or resin materials that are bonded to the front or back of the tooth) to take care of the dental gap, but also underwent a "fairness" treatment and a skin polishing procedure (a method of skin rejuvenation which removes the dead skin cells) that now makes her feel "beautiful". The ultimate high was the compliment she got from the man she is about to marry. A day after the fairness treatment, Wathodkar went to meet him with her face covered with a piece of cloth, "looking like a terrorist". Once the mask was off, he was anything but terrorised. "Your skin is softer," he said. "It's love," she lied. Courtesy: Times Of India

But Wathodkar, who couldn't tell lipstick from lip gloss, was determined to set things right before her wedding. She got not just veneers (the ultra-thin shells of ceramic or resin materials that are bonded to the front or back of the tooth) to take care of the dental gap, but also underwent a "fairness" treatment and a skin polishing procedure (a method of skin rejuvenation which removes the dead skin cells) that now makes her feel "beautiful". The ultimate high was the compliment she got from the man she is about to marry. A day after the fairness treatment, Wathodkar went to meet him with her face covered with a piece of cloth, "looking like a terrorist". Once the mask was off, he was anything but terrorised. "Your skin is softer," he said. "It's love," she lied. Courtesy: Times Of India
