It is World Soil Day today!

A healthy soil stores about 10% of the world’s carbon dioxide and reduces the risk of floods while protecting underground water supplies. It is integral to our ecosystem and directly impacts life. Without good soil, plants cannot survive, leading to conditions of drought and famine.

Did you know, it takes more than five hundred years to create just

two centimeters of top soil?

Pass the Banana

Better than a gift given with a joyous heart

are sweet words spoken with a cheerful smile "

Pass the Banana

A professor at CCNY for a physiological psych class told his class about bananas. He said the expression 'going bananas' is from the effects of bananas on the brain. Read on:

Never, put your banana in the refrigerator!!!

This is interesting.

After reading this, you'll never look at a banana in the same way again.

Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy.

Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes.

But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

Depression: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anemia : High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school ( England ) were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey.. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.

Overweight and at work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and chips. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

Temperature control: Many other cultures see bananas as a 'cooling' fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. InThailand , for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood Enhancer tryptophan.

Smoking &Tobacco Use: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.

Strokes: According to research in The New England Journal of Medicine, eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%!

Warts: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around So maybe it's time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, 'A banana a day keeps the doctor away!'

PASS IT ON TO YOUR FRIENDS

PS: Bananas must be the reason monkeys are so happy all the time! I will add one here; want a quick shine on our shoes?? Take the INSIDE of the banana skin, and rub directly on the shoe...polish with dry cloth.

Amazing fruit !!!

Horror at Lonavala..real..must read

noreply@blogger.com (Abhiroop Bhattacharyya) — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 20:50:00 PST

This happened about a month ago near Lonavala. A guy was driving from Bombay to Pune and decided not to take the new expressway as he wanted to see the scenery along the old road. The inevitable happened, when he reached the mountains. His car breaks down - he's stranded miles away from nowhere. Having no choice, he started walking along the side of the road, hoping to get a lift to the nearest town.

It was dark and rainy. And pretty soon he got wet and started shivering. The night rolled on, and no car passed

by.

Suddenly he sees a car coming towards him. It slows down and nearly stops next to him. Without waiting or thinking a bit , the guy opens the door and jumps into the rear of car which starts moving by then.... Seated in the back, he leans forward to thank the person who had saved him. To his horror, he realizes there is nobody behind the wheel!!!........ Even though there's no one in the front seat, and no sound of any engine, the car starts moving slowly. The guy looks at the road ahead and sees a curve coming. Scared almost to death. he starts to pray, begging the Lord for his life.

He hasn't come out of shock, when just before he hits a curve, a hand appears through the window and moves the wheel! The car negotiates the curve safely, and continues on the road to the next bend. The guy, now paralyzed in

terror, watches the same hand appearing every time they approach a curve and later moving the steering wheel just enough to get the car around each bend.

Finally, the guy sees some bright lights ahead. God!..... Gathering all his courage, he silently wrenches open the rear door of the slowly-moving car, scrambles out, and runs as hard as he can towards the lights. It's a small town.

He stumbles into a restuarant, and asks for a drink, and breaks down. Then he starts talking about the horrible experience he's just been through, to the people around.

There is dead silence in the restaurant when he stops talking ......... . .

Salt Hotels in Salar de Uyuni - Bolivia

noreply@blogger.com (Abhiroop Bhattacharyya) — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 20:50:00 PST

Salar de Uyuni attracts tourists from around the world. As it is located far from the cities, a number of hotels have been built for accommodation. Due to lack of conventional construction materials, many of them are almost entirely built with salt blocks cut from the Salar - including walls, roof and furniture.

The first such hotel, Hotel de Sal Playa, was erected in 1993-1995 in the middle of the salt flat, and soon became a popular tourist destination. Many more hotels and hostels made out of salt were constructed later. Hotel de Sal Playa was previously covered on Amusing Planet.

Great Presentation

noreply@blogger.com (Abhiroop Bhattacharyya) — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 15:08:00 PST

Have we ever thought, that, where does all this scope in the form of projects in different tools/technologies come from? And what goes in to win all of these?

Let me tell you, its the challenge of hunting down the beast from forrest full of competitors, thats when we are ready to cook and eat it.

Hence, it's in the way we present and the content that we display, that distinguishes us from the market.

Given below are some of the finest guidelines for a successfull presentation. I've attached a pdf also to make the content simpler and interesting.

Be Entertaining	Speeches should be entertaining and informative. I’m not saying we should act like a dancing monkey when giving a serious presentation. But unlike an e-mail or article, people expect some appeal to there emotions. Simply reciting dry facts without any passion or humor will make people less likely to pay attention.
Slow Down	Nervous and inexperienced speakers tend to talk way to fast. Consciously we have to slow our speech down and add pauses for emphasis.
Eye Contact	We need to match eye contact with everyone in the room. I’ve also heard from salespeople that we shouldn’t focus all our attention on the decision maker since secretaries and assistants in the room may hold persuasive sway over their boss.
15 Word Summary	Can we summarize our idea in fifteen words? If not, lets rewrite it and try again. Speaking is an inefficient medium for communicating information, so we need to know what the important fifteen words are so they can be repeated.
Don’t Read	This one is a no brainer, but somehow Powerpoint makes people think they can get away with it. If we don’t know our speech without cues, that doesn’t just make you more distracting. It shows that we don’t really understand our message, a huge blow to any confidence the audience has in us.
Speeches can be Stories	If our presentation is going to be a longer one, we have to explain our points through short stories, quips and anecdotes. Great speakers know how to use a story to create an emotional connection between ideas for the audience.
Project Your Voice	Nothing is worse than a speaker we can’t hear. Even in the high-tech world of microphones and amplifiers, we need to be heard. Projecting our voice doesn’t mean yelling, rather standing up straight and letting our voice resonate on the air in our lungs rather than in the throat to produce a clearer sound.
Don’t Plan Gestures	Any gestures we use need to be an extension of our message and any emotions that message conveys. Planned gestures look false because they don’t match our other involuntary body cues. We are better off keeping our hands to our side.
“That’s a Good Question”	We can use statements like, “that’s a really good question,” or “I’m glad you asked me that,” to buy ourself a few moments to organize our response. Will the other people in the audience know we are using these filler sentences to reorder our thoughts? Probably not. And even if they do, it still makes the presentation more smooth than um’s and ah’s littering our answer.
Breathe In Not Out	Feeling the urge to use presentation killers like ‘um,’ ‘ah,’ or ‘you know’? We need to replace those with a pause taking a short breath in. The pause may seem a bit awkward, but the audience will barely notice it.
*Come Early, Really* Early**	We should not fumble with powerpoint or hooking up a projector when people are waiting for us to speak. We should come early, scope out the room, run through our slideshow and make sure there won’t be any glitches. Preparation can do a lot to remove our speaking anxiety.
Get Practice	We should join Toastmasters and practice our speaking skills regularly in front of an audience. Not only is it a fun time, but it will make us more competent and confident when we need to approach the podium.
Don’t Apologize	Apologies are only useful if we have done something wrong. We should not use them to excuse incompetence or humble ourself in front of an audience. Don’t apologize for our nervousness or a lack of preparation time. Most audience members can’t detect your anxiety, so don’t draw attention to it.
Do Apologize if Wrong	It always buys the audience's faith and confidence for us when we clearly apologize for any wrong or incorrect information from our end. Never hesitate, just admit and proceed with confidence.
Put Yourself in Audience	When writing a speech, we should see it from the audiences perspective. What might they not understand? What might seem boring? Use WIIFM (What’s In It For Me) to guide us.
Have Fun	Sounds impossible? With a little practice we can inject our passion for a subject into our presentations. Enthusiasm is contagious.

Crestor lawsuit

noreply@blogger.com (Abhiroop Bhattacharyya) — Sun, 06 Nov 2011 01:26:00 PDT

If you are taking the R2 from AstraZeneca for long time which is basically crestor then it is the time for you to know that it has serious side effects. Crestor is used to treat high LDL cholesterol which may cause cardio vascular problem. But now it is scientifically proven that crestor can cause serious injuries like heart attacks and heart failure. And this is not all, it may also cause cardiomyopathy (deterioration of the myocardium), rhabdomyolysis (breakdown of muscle fibers), and ventricular dysfunction. Based on these facts you can understand, if you are suffering from any of these side effects because of unknowingly consuming this drug then you may need Crestor lawsuit to get compensated.

HOW INDIAN DOCTORS LOOT PATIENTS*

noreply@blogger.com (Abhiroop Bhattacharyya) — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 21:43:00 PDT

Dr.B.M. Hegde has written two books and it is a must for every one to read.

What doctors do not study in Medical collegesNow he is bold to reveal all these.Thanks for the forward.

This is from Dr. B M Hegde. **** Wonder how much is widespread and how many are merely a few black sheep.**** Most of these observations are either completely or partially true. Corruption has many names, and one of civil society isn't innocent either. Professionals and businessmen of various sorts indulge in unscrupulous practices. I recently had a chat with some doctors, surgeons and owners of nursing homes about the tricks of their trade. Here is what they said****1) *40-60% kickbacks for lab tests*.

When a doctor (whether family doctor / general physician, consultant or surgeon) prescribes tests - pathology, radiology, X-rays, MRIs etc. – the laboratory conducting those tests gives commissions. In South and Central Mumbai -- 40%. In the suburbs north of Bandra -- a whopping 60 per cent! He probably earns a lot more in this way than **the consulting fees that you pay.

2) *30-40% for referring to consultants, specialists & surgeons*.

When your friendly GP refers you to a specialist or surgeon, he gets 30-40%.

3) *30-40% of total hospital charges*.If the GP or consultant recommends hospitalization, he will receive kickback from the private nursing home as a percentage of all charges including ICU, bed, nursing care, surgery.

4) *Sink tests.*Some tests prescribed by doctors are not needed. They are there to inflate bills and commissions. The pathology lab understands what is unnecessary. These are called "sink tests"; blood, urine, stool samples collected will be thrown.

5) *Admitting the patient to "keep him under observation". *People go to cardiologists feeling unwell and anxious. Most of them aren't really having a heart attack, and cardiologists and family doctors are well aware of this. They admit such safe patients, put them on a saline drip with

mild sedation, and send them home after 3-4 days after charging them a fat amount for ICU, bed charges, visiting doctors fees.

6) *ICU minus intensive care.*Nursing homes all over the suburbs are run by doctor couples or as one-man-shows. In such places, nurses and ward boys are class 10 drop-outs in ill-fitting uniforms and bare feet. These "nurses" sit at the reception counter, give injections and saline drips, perform ECGs, apply dressings and change bandages, and assist in the operation theatre. At night, they even sit outside the Intensive Care Units; there is no resident doctor. In case of a crisis, the doctor -- who usually lives in the same building -- will turn up after 20 minutes, after this the nurse call him. Such ICUs admit safe patients to fill up beds. Genuine patients who require emergency care are sent elsewhere to hospitals having a Resident Medical Officer (RMO) round-the-clock.

7) *Unnecessary caesarean surgeries and hysterectomies. *Many surgical procedures are done to keep the cash register ringing. Caesarean deliveries and hysterectomy (removal of uterus) are high on the list. While the woman with labour -pains is screaming and panicking, the

obstetrician who gently suggests that caesarean is best seems like an angel sent by God! Menopausal women experience bodily changes that make them nervous and gullible. They can be frightened by words like " and "fibroids" that are in almost every normal woman's radiology reports. When a gynecologist gently suggests womb removal "as a precaution", most women and their husbands agree without a second's thought.

8) *Cosmetic surgery advertized through newspapers.*Liposuction and plastic surgery are not minor procedures. Some are life-threateningly major. But advertisements make them appear as easy as facials and waxing. The Indian medical council**has strict rules against such misrepresentation. But nobody is interested in taking action.

9) * Indirect kickbacks from doctors to prestigious hospitals.*To be on the panel of a prestigious hospital, there is give-and-take involved. The hospital expects the doctor to refer many patients for hospital admission. If he fails to send a certain number of patients, he is quietly dumped. And so he likes to admit patients even when there is no need.

10) *"Emergency surgery" on dead body. *

If a surgeon hurriedly wheels your patient from the Intensive Care Unit to the operation theatre, refuses to let you go inside and see him, and wants your signature on the consent form for "an emergency operation to save his

life", it is likely that your patient is already dead. The "emergency operation" is for inflating the bill; if you agree for it, the surgeon will come out 15 minutes later and report that your patient died on the operation table. And then, when you take delivery of the dead body, you will pay OT charges, anesthesiologist’s charges, blah-blah- *Doctors are humans too. You can't trust them blindly. Please understand the difference.*Young surgeons and old ones.*The young ones who are setting up nursing home etc. have heavy loans to settle. To pay back the loan, they have to perform as many operations as possible. Also, to build a reputation, they have to perform a large number of operations and develop their skills. So, at first, every case seems fit for cutting. But with age, experience and prosperity, many surgeons lose their taste for cutting, and stop recommending operations.

**Physicians and surgeons.*

To a man with a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. Surgeons like to solve medical problems by cutting, just as physicians first seek solutions with drugs. So, if you take your medical problem to a surgeon first, the chances are that you will unnecessarily end up on the operation table. Instead, please go to an ordinary *GP first*****

Today is World Habitat Day!

Everyone has the right to a clean, safe habitat.

For the event this year, the focus is on Cities and Climate Change — and the basic right of every individual

to adequate shelter. With increased urbanization, it has become important that we take a closer look at the

state of our cities, and the habitat they offer!

It is time we realize our responsibility towards this, and take steps to usher in a change.

What can we do?

· Vote for a planned, sustainable city development

· Reduce the use of plastic and other non-biodegradable materials

· Encourage and support reuse and recycling of products

· Avail of the public transport and use the car pool as much as possible

· Plant more trees around your neighborhood

Take a stand for a better housing for everyone, a better planet.

Participate in the World Habitat Day Photo Caption Contest. Visit the Go Green blog to know more!

Did you know?

This year, World Habitat Day falls in the month when demographers predict our planet's seven billionth inhabitant will born. The future that this child and his/her generation will inherit, depends to a great degree on

how we handle the competing pressures of a growing population.
