Can ELECTRICITY pass through Flash light of the Digital camera to your body


Can ELECTRICITY pass through Flash light of the Digital camera to your body??? Yes it is 100% true..!

This is a true incidence reported of a boy aged 19, who was studying in 1st year of engineering, who died in Keshvani Hospital, Mumbai. He was admitted in the Hospital as a burned patient. Reason ??????

This boy had gone to Amravati (a place located in State of Maharashtra ) on a study tour, on their return they were waiting at the railway station to catch the train. Many of them started taking pictures of their friends using "Mobile Phones" and / or "Digital Camera". One of them complained that, he was unable to capture the full group of friends in one frame in the Digicam. This boy moved away to a distance to get the whole group.

He failed to notice that at an angle above his head, 40,000 volts electrical line was passing through.
As soon as he clicked the digital camera? 40,000 volt current passed through the camera flash light to his camera and then from his camera to his fingers & to his body. All this happened within a fraction of a second. His body was half burned. They arranged for an ambulance & his burned body was brought to Keshavani Hospital, Mumbai.

For one & half days or so he was conscious & talking. Doctors did not have much hopes as there was a lot of complex issues in his body. He passed away later. Now how many of us are aware about these technical threats & dangers? Even if we are, how many of us are adhering??

Now should we call ourselves as educated and knowledgeable people?
  1. Please avoid mobile phones on petrol outlets.
  2. Please avoid talking on mobile phones while driving.
  3. Change that "Chalta Hai Yaar Attitude".
  4. Please avoid talking on mobile phones while kept in charging mode without disconnecting from wall socket.
  5. Please do not keep mobile phones on your bed while charging and / on wooden furniture.
  6. Avoid using mobile phones / Digital cameras near high voltage electrical lines like in railway stations and avoid using flash.

Thanksgiving 2011



What a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!!
We had all of our children here and their families. the meal was yummy...everyone helped out!
The weather was perfect. We enjoyed making Ginger bread houses and Christmas trains together. The adults ate a delicious dinner on Friday at Mi Amigos and then went to a play "It's a Wonderful Life." On Saturday we had our pictures taken at Brandt Studio and he is amazing. It was so fun and I'm so excited to see the pictures. He is so entertaining and makes you laugh. The picture is our gift for Christmas from Aaron and Andrea. I can't wait to get it on our wall.

On Sunday, Larry and I spoke in church on Gratitude and it was so special to have all of our family in attendance as well as Larry's father. We spoke on the miracles in our lives. How I was healed of cancer and how Larry was healed of diabetes. The Lord has been so merciful to us and extended our lives. We are eternally indebted to Him. I am so thankful for prayer and the Spirit that directs our lives.
We got the 2 families off to Utah after church and sent with them their Christmas packages. That will save us money not having to mail them.
They texted us last night saying they arrived safely. Yeah!!

We've got the Christmas tree up and today we'll finish the lights and the decorating.....hopefully.
I'm so happy that I am feeling great and can enjoy my family. Health is so important and I love spending time with my children, their spouses and my grandchildren.
(and husband of course!)

Good news...Christina is pregnant and they are expecting in August. They will have three kids under the age of 2. (at least for a month before Craig turns 3) Crazy huh. But I'm excited.
So, with Aaron and Andrea's son coming in January, that will be 16 grand kids. Wow.
Life is wonderful!!

Beware, walking with earphones can kill


The death of 21-year-old Priya Jain, hit by a bike and then a bus while crossing the busy Vikas Marg road on Wednesday, is a wake-up call to the dangers of 'iPod oblivion' - walking on the road with earphones, listening to music or simply talking.

Priya, police said, had ear-plugs on while crossing the road on her way to work. That may well have been the crucial difference between life and death in her case. Experts say walking with earphones causes 'cognitive overload' which shuts out the world around the wearer and makes the person blind to danger.




With hand-held devices becoming more and more common around the world, this is being recognized as a major threat on the roads in the US, Australia and other countries, perhaps second only to using the cellphone while driving.

Closer home, Priya's is not an isolated case. A few months back in the capital, a man returning from a night shift early in the morning with headphones on, stepped right in the way of a car and lost his life. While the incident was reported, the fact that the man's headphones could have caused the accident, was not.

Walking on the road with earphones, listening to music or simply talking can be dangerous. There are countless close calls every day but the issue hasn't drawn the attention it deserves.

That's not the case in the US, where for some time now, legislators have unsuccessfully attempted to introduce laws banning use of headphones while walking, with evidence growing that many accidents can be avoided if pedestrians stop using earphones.


Dr M C Misra, chief of AIIMS Trauma Centre, points out that 50% of road accident deaths in the city are that of pedestrians and use of hand-held devices while crossing the road or walking in the carriageway was definitely a contributing factor.

"Listening to music or talking on the phone while crossing the road is dangerous. It diverts attention and causes a hearing deficit. The pedestrian is often not able to comprehend warning signals like honking or someone simply crying out," he says. He adds that in the capital where pavements are encroached upon or are simply not there, people are forced to walk on the road and distraction for even a second can put one's life at risk.

"The Motor Vehicle Act does not have any provision to prosecute the pedestrian,'' says Rohit Baluja, president, Institute of Road Traffic Education. "There are no statistics that tell you when a pedestrian is at fault and most often the vehicle owner is booked. But no one can deny that the increased use of cellphones to call up, text or mail while crossing the road is one of the causes of these accidents. Dr J D Mukherjee, neurologist at Max Hospital, Saket, says people who are talking on the phone while walking or listening to music are not able to respond to an emergency situation appropriately.

A study published in the April 2011 issue of the Journal of Safety Research in the US on the use of cellphone by pedestrians highlighted the problem. It showed that people busy on the phone did look both ways before crossing but didn't seem to be any safer. Compared with people who crossed without any distraction, people on the phone were delayed and incurred risks. In a simulation, some even got hit by a virtual car. Adults were as much to blame as teenagers, some other studies showed.

But Satyendra Garg, joint commissioner of traffic police, says prosecution is not the way out. "The number of pedestrians is huge. It's not practical to catch every violator and prosecute. In my view, awareness campaigns to promote judicious use of cellphones and other devices is needed. The traffic police is working on these lines," he claims.



Despite the danger, youngsters are not about to give up. "While listening to music like this, one feels cut off from the bustle. It's relaxing and soothing," says Fatima Akram, a BA Psychology (Hons) student at Jamia Milia Islamia University. Akhil Kumar, who studies at Amity University, says he listens to music while walking on the road but keeps the volume low. "Twice I landed right in front of heavy vehicles. Since then, I have become more alert," he added.

Does Apple Cider Vinegar Help You Lose Weight

Does Apple Cider Vinegar Help You Lose Weight

Let me give you first a brief background regarding vinegar.
Fermentation is a process in which an agent causes an organic substance to break down into simpler substances; especially, the anaerobic breakdown of sugar into alcohol. This is a process in which sugars in a food are broken down by bacteria and yeast. Vinegar is not a product of fermentation, it's alcohol. But, when an alcohol is further fermented, it will then becomes a vinegar. One great example is coconut.

Anyway, I will not discuss here on how to create a vinegar. But if you are curious you can search Mr. Google and he will give you a lot of answers. Since this is a fitness or lose weight site, I will be discussing does apple cider vinegar help you lose weight.

According to Dr. Jarvis, since he was the first person to document the folk remedy of using apple cider vinegar for weight loss. One of his patients agreed to take apple cider vinegar day to day, and the person experienced a gradual, certain weight loss. This is done by drinking a glass of water with two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar before eating.

This is one of the great ways to lose weight quickly. With the use of apple cider vinegar, an individual can experience a gradual weight loss. The key here is that, once you reached your ideal weight, you need to maintain it through exercise, not by using apple cider vinegar. Since when you maintain it through exercises, your fat cells will adjust to your new size.

A study also shows that apples do contain some pectin. Pectin are various water-soluble colloidal carbohydrates that occur in ripe fruit and vegetables; used in making fruit jellies and jams. Through the help with this pectin, you can fell fuller and more satisfied even if you eat less. This is one of the components of apple, which we can also get from apple cider vinegar. It is advised that drinking water with apple cider vinegar before meals can help you lose weight. Just an FYI, every apple contains 1.5 grams of pectin. which helps us suppress our appetite. I would encourage you to have apple cider vinegar rather than eating raw apples. It is more effective since it has more acids, and acids can helps with  protein digestion and blocks our growth hormones. And as we all know, growth hormones can break down fat cells. This means, by increasing the acid in our tummy before meal, this will ensure us that the chances for thorough digestion as well as increase the availability of protein for hormone synthesis. Apple cider vinegar stimulates digestion as well as reduces the amount of time that fats stays inside the body.

Additional facts:
Apples are a great source of potassium, and also, apple cider vinegar, taken on a regular basis, will contribute the potassium we need to help balance the sodium in our diet. In fact, we can try replacing salt in our diet with apple cider vinegar. Use it to top foods that we might be tempted to salt, such as vegetables or protein foods. Salt is often present in the foods that we eat as a flavor enhancer for fat. Thus besides increasing the amount of water weight we carry, salt can tempt us to eat more of those fatty foods like french fries, pastries, meats with high amount of fats or meat substitutes.

If you want to use apple cider vinegar in your lose weight, you can have this recommendation from Dr. Jarvis and some who have used apple cider vinegar for their weight loss. 1-2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar + 1 glass of water. You can have it 3 times a day before taking your meal.

Caution when using apple cider vinegar:
Apple cider vinegar contains bacteria that could put your health or even life in danger. Thus, you need to consult your healthcare provider to determine what kind of apple cider vinegar is safe for you. Some of the organic apple cider vinegar have high concentration of nutrients and etc. including bacteria. And these bacteria might be threatening in your health. So, before using apple cider vinegar, it is best to consult your healthcare specialist first.

Does Apple Cider Vinegar Help You Lose Weight? Now that you have an idea, I bet you can answer this question for yourself.

Five Super Foods for Keeping your Bones Healthy

A strong skeletal frame is vital not only to provide structure to the body but also protect the internal organs and anchor the muscles.

Apart from this, a healthy set of bones is crucial for good posture, balance and strength. Now the two key nutrients responsible for developing healthy strong bones are calcium and phosphorus. Smaller amounts of other nutrients like vitamins, proteins and minerals are also important for healthy bones.


The process of developing healthy bones begins at birth. However, it is important that a healthy, bone-friendly diet programme is maintained all throughout the life. This becomes particularly important after about 30 years of age.

You of course have the option of going for calcium supplements (but do consult a doctor before you do that), you can also try some calcium-rich foods to make up for the deficiency of calcium and keeping the bones healthy. Below, we discuss five super foods which can help you boost your bone density at any age:

Milk
Without a shadow of doubt, milk is the best (and readily available) source of calcium required for proper bone growth. According to the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), low fat or fat-free milk is the best choice as it has high calcium content without the added fat and this facilitates easy absorption of calcium by the body. And it's not just calcium. Milk is also rich in nutrients like potassium, magnesium, riboflavin, phosphorus and Vitamins D, A and B12, all of which are important for healthy bones.


Orange Juice
Oranges are packed with essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals and calcium. They are a must-have for healthy bone growth. They can be especially used by individuals who have intolerance to lactose and cannot obtain their daily calcium requirements from dairy products. So next time you help yourself with a serving of fruits, make sure you have enough oranges in that.


Dairy Products
Many experts have designated dairy products like cheese and yogurt as preferred source of calcium due to their high calcium levels. In case you are lactose intolerant, you can also opt for other dairy products that are either lactose-free or have low levels of lactose. Yogurt is contains a chemical called lactoferrin which an iron-binding protein which promotes the growth and activity of osteoblasts (the cells that build bones).

Nuts and Seeds
Besides being rich in calcium, nuts like walnuts, flaxseeds, almonds, pistachios etc are also very good sources of minerals and omega 3 fatty acids. Peanuts and calcium contain potassium which prevents loss of calcium in urine.




Greens
 Dark green leafy veggies like brocolli and spinach are great sources of calcium and vitamin D and it's the latter which helps in absorption of Calcium and Phosphorus, thereby ensuring growth of healthy bones and teeth. Collards and turnip greens can also be helpful in providing you with your daily dose of calcium. The alkaline effect of eating a diet rich in these vegetables will help you to strengthen your bones and promote bone growth by preventing calcium loss. Besides, plant sterols (steroid hormones) are converted to a hormone called calciferol and that aids calcium absorption.
