Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, Wagner, Mahler and Tchaikovsky are definitely in. But opinion is divided on who the remaining two composers should be. Among the names being argued over are Brahms, Mendelssohn, Schubert, Stravinsky, Shostakovich, Verdi, Puccini and Gershwin. Others are championing the cause of Duke Ellington, the late reggae star Bob Marley, and David Bowie, whose contribution to 20th-century culture includes such works as ``Space Oddity'' and ``Jean Genie''.
The BBC music and arts department wants at least some of the eight to be 20th-century composers, perhaps including a living composer. But Michael Jackson, head of BBC 2, is understood to want the music to be known and recognised by the person in the street, giving the series wider appeal.
``It is certainly dividing people here,'' admitted Avril MacRory, the BBC's head of music, yesterday. ``I can't remember such a strong, though friendly, debate over a series of programmes. Speaking personally I would undoubtedly say yes to 20th-century composers. However, making a series that has to appeal to a broad audience I would listen to the arguments coming from other people here.''
The series of programmes scheduled for BBC 2 in 1996 will reassess the reputations of the eight greatest composers of all time, and attempt to predict whether they will still be popular in 100 years.
It is sure to arouse controversy among musicians and other interested parties. Priti Paintal, the composer who has formed a group to encourage recognition of contemporary music, said last night that it would be wrong for the list to be totally Eurocentric. ``The BBC exercise all sounds quite traditional. There should be contemporary music in the broadest sense, interesting things in jazz and folk. And the word greatest is a bit of a misnomer. Greatest by which standard? It's very Eurocentric.
``Globally, less than one-third of the world's population has any knowledge of western classical music. And a lot of music around the world isn't composer-based: Tibetan chanting, for example.''
Others believe that modern classical music composers and indeed contemporary pop and jazz composers such as Bowie, Marley and Dizzy Gillespie should be on the list. Ms Paintal herself suggested the list should include Bowie, Gillespie, Bismillah Khan, Meredith Monk, Xenakis and Miriam Makeba, as well as Bach.
Sian Edwards, the music director of the English National Opera and another Marley fan, also wanted Stan Tracey, the British jazz pianist and composer, put on the list.
Nicholas Snowman, the South Bank Centre's director, called for the inclusion of the modernists Birtwistle and Berio. And Lord Gowrie, chairman of the Arts Council, wanted an eclectic mix that would find room for Haydn, Stravinsky and Ellington.
Keith Clarke, editor of Classical Music magazine, said: ``I think it [the series] has to be for everyman, but it should be a series that educates people rather than just giving them the 1812 Overture again. The BBC ought to stick Britten in; a good, solid British composer.
``And, as a lover of song, I don't see how Avril MacRory can leave out Schubert. Even if you don't like much of the symphonic output, anybody who can sit down and write 600 decent songs and a fine body of piano sonatas must be in.''

Audi Surpasses Mercedes-Benz Sales For First Time
Unless there's some sort of Christmas miracle in Mercedes showrooms, Audi is set to pass their competitor for the first time to take the number 2 spot for global luxury car sales.
The company's sales volume grew by 18 percent this year, compared to Mercedes' seven. Though the numbers aren't final until the ball drops in Times Square, Audi is sitting pretty with more than 56,500 units to hold over Mercedes, meaning the title is as good as theirs.
Of course, nether Audi nor Mercedes are happy with sitting behind BMW. Both companies claim plans to make the number 1 spot, though in different time frames.
Daimler CEO Dieter Zetsche told Automotive News Europe earlier this year that they plan to be the top company in sales and profitability by 2020. Meanwhile, Audi is laying claim to that same goal, but by 2015.
Don't expect BMW to sit back on their laurels either, though, the Bavarian automaker made it clear earlier this year in an interview with Automotive News that they have plans to stay on top.

http://www.FTV.com/videos MILAN - Head designer Manuel Faccini typically takes his inspirations from nature's creatures and this Fall/Winter 2011/2012 collection is no different. "I took inspiration from two different types of animals like swan and fox. Very different from each other," he says, "I tried to translate it to something very furious on one side and something subtle, very pure in an another. The collection goes between these two dichotomies." Fur skirts are contrasted with chic trousers and sleek dresses.

I thought you were. But notice that it was offered up as something to say to a person who "gave her crap" about using a harness. Not as something that applies to all stroller use.
Answering disrespect with disrespect isn't the best thing, but I know how it is to be a bit anxious that someone will say something cruel. There's a tendency to come up with the most cutting response possible.
And the cutting response often has nothing to do with how one feels about a subject in general.
Force the child to hold their, or a nursemaid's, hand at all times. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nursemaid%27s_elbow
Leashes and harnesses for children are not new. The Victorians used to use them. The harnesses/leashes were sewn into the clothes.
Keeping your child safe by some sort of restraint is common in many cultures. That's what babywearing is, isn't it? We wear mei tais, slings, wraps, etc. Why is that different? Our child is being restrained. Although we don't like to think of it in that way, that's what it is.
Ultimately, these things were made to keep our children safe. Where is the harm in that?
When people say things to me in real life such as "Is he comfortable in that thing" (sling)
Me: Yes very. Thats why he is sleeping. Just 10 minutes ago he can crawling high speed to me and put his arms up because he was excited to get in it when he saw me putting it on.
Another sling comment: He looks uncomfortable.
Me: No he's not.
Me: Oh, he does? (walk away)
Me: Okay. (talk to someone else)
..sometimes they interupt me to tell me again.
Me: Thank you. (continue talking to someone else)
I do understand why one would want to use a flippant remark in those situations though! I just say for me personally I never found it particularly useful, other then to have a "funny joke" to tell my like minded friends later sometimes I say to my friends "I should have told that lady (insert flippant remark here) and it feels just as good, if not better, then had I actually said it to the person. I get anxiety easily though, so I think using remarks like that in person would also make me feel unsettled, aside from just not being useful in my life.
Well, the victorians are definately not my rolemodels!
I have lived in Africa, never one time saw a mother with her child "tethered" in any way and doubt that there is a history of "tethering" there at all.
Ye-eeesss.... but "giving crap", to me, isn't that sort of remark.
To continue your sling example, it'd be things like "Ugh, how can he breath in that? That looks SOOO uncomfortable, I'd never do that to MY child."
Or in the harness case,
"Those things are just WRONG. You're demeaning your child!"
Or, more likely, given the examples in the "worst/stupidest" thread in Parenting, the person would talk to the air "There's another one of those lazy parents. Glad I never felt the need to demean MY child like that."
Since there seems to be a bit of "I never had to use them" boasting from the few people who disapprove of harnesses, can I ask if you fear that people will assume that a parent who uses a harness can't control their children?
I think it's a bit like the difference between child-proofing and saying "no" all the time.
I have a couple of questions:
I read the analogy about comparing harnesses to washing mouths with soap. To be honest, I don't understand the comparison. Can someone who holds this idea please elaborate for clarification? To me, washing a mouth with soap is 1) a form of punishment, and 2) done against the child's will. If a child does not mind using a harness, how is this comparable? Also, if the argument is that using leashes is arcane the same way that washing a mouth out with soap is arcane, then this likewise seems inapplicable because modern life (with it's traffic, congested streets, fast cars, etc.) is acutely more dangerous than life even a hundred years ago. It seems to me, then, that there would be a greater need for restraining devices in modern life than previously, as is apparent by the number of strollers, car seats, and even slings that one sees each day. So far, I agree with the idea that harnesses can provide a great deal more freedom than other restraining devices in situations in which safety is in jeopardy.
Also, I'm confused why people feel that leashing is demeaning. Is it simply because dogs are leashed? Would you feel the same way if leashes were never used for animals? I'm asking simply because I don't understand the ideology behind these absolutist views. If you could elaborate more on WHY you feel these are demeaning, that would help a great deal in being able to understand your point of view.
As I said, I'm merely trying to understand this side of the argument more fully.
Well, the victorians are definately not my rolemodels!
I have lived in Africa, never one time saw a mother with her child "tethered" in any way and doubt that there is a history of "tethering" there at all.
I have lived in Hawaii and truely never saw a child "tethered" there either and also doubt there was ever a tethering trend there.
When in Englad and France and Holland I never saw any children on leads, either.
Actually went to a festival yesterday that was huge....no tethered children. Lots and lots of kids having a good time, but none on leashes!
I'm just not buying it that this a normal thing that has it's accepted place in society.
I am okay staying home. I have no desire to "keep up" My daughter however, NEEDS to get out of the house. I have to go outside my comfort zone sometimes to meet that need for her. Thankfully she isn't a darter, but if she was, and she didnt like the stroller or sling (which she does) and she didnt want to hold my hand (which she does) but if those things were true and she said "mom why cant I just wear a monkey back pack like that kid at the zoo" then I would totally get her a monkey back pack so I could continue to meet HER need to get out of the house.
what would you suggest to a parent who has a DD like mine whose child is also a darter and WANTS to wear the monkey back pack? I cant see it as demeaning, only respectful.

Ultimately it just goes against my whole philosphy as a mom to leash my child. You won't convince me that it has it's place. Of course you are free to make your own choice for your family, I just don't have to agree that it's a good one.
Never said the Victorians were role models, but they did sometimes have their children on leashes.
In your travels, did you see people wearing their babies in Bjorns, slings, mei tais, wraps, back packs, pouches, etc?
If you did, then the child was being restrained, right?
I sincerely don't get why people believe that harnesses are so bad. Most say because they "look bad". If a child is being kept safe then what is the big deal? Seriously. I personally could care less what anyone thought as long as my child is safe. When he is harnessed, he is moving around and exploring safely. There is more independence for a child in a harness than there is for one being worn.
And to repeat- I still wear my very large 2 year old. I have nothing against baby wearing since I still do it.
I hardly even use the harness (I've had it for almost a year and have probably used it all of 5 times) but you can be certain I'll be using it at the airport in 2 weeks so my son can move around but still be safe.
And are you implying that your daughter actually has a need to go to the zoo and stuff like that? Because I don't even think she would know what a zoo was if you hadn't introduced it to her.
Are you also saying that there are no safe, age appropriate places to be outside the house with your LO to fill her need of being out safely while maintaining a leashfree relationship with her?
|Yes, in Africa moms did wear their LOs... a lot. On the back.
the leash is avoidable for my family, and since my child wouldnt like it anyway, it is the better option.
for other families, they could avoid using the leash BUT it wouldnt eb the better option for them and their child, because their child would be happy on a leash but not happy or safe any other way.
just respecting that different children are well, different, and I respect that. I don't find it demeaning, by definition, to allow your child freedom instead of saying "either you do it this way or you dont get to walk around".
Honestly, do you know the infant and child mortality statistics for some countries in Africa? And don't tell me it's all handwashing. Kids fall into the firepit. Kids are stolen.
In Africa, you can usually leave the child with another relative at home. Not so here.
Regardless of traffic, the situations are not comparable. Plus maybe they don't have leashes in Africa!

Sites of Insight: A Guide to Colorado Sacred Places
In these eighteen illuminating essays, some of Colorado s most accomplished novelists, essayists, and poets write in intimate detail about their most poignant experiences in the Colorado wilderness. Readers are given access both physically and spiritually to settings that inspire reverence for and contemplation about one s relationship to the land. From above tree line in the Rawah Mountains down into the broad San Luis Valley, from the Western Slope to the high plains in the east, the reader is taken on a vivid journey through a rich assortment of Colorado s awe-inspiring landscapes.
Essays by Tom Noel, Fred Baca, Kristen Iversen, and Reyes Garcia are historical in makeup, while those by Sangeeta Reddy, Merrill Gilfillan, and Amy England feature engaging spiritual and philosophical explorations, even epiphanies. Reg Saner and Nick Sutcliffe share experiences of pitting themselves against nature. And in the tradition of Thoreau, John Muir, and Annie Dillard, all of these essayists explore the intense and vibrant relationships people have with the wilderness.
Sites of Insight belongs on the bookshelves of tourists, outdoor enthusiasts, and Coloradoans both longtime residents and newcomers who seek to apprehend something in nature that is larger than themselves.

A heart attack is usually characterised by the rupture of a plaque which can cause the spread of the cholesterol into the blood stream. Cardiovascular diseases are a major cause of pain, suffering and death around the world, today. Heart attacks are caused by coronary heart disease.
This is caused by the narrowing of the coronary artery when substances like cholesterol block it. If not treated and revived on time, a patient suffering from a heart attack can meet a fatal result. So how can you prevent a heart attack?
- Cholesterol: We are all affected to some extent by what we eat. It is important to keep a check on your cholesterol, especially if it is on the higher side, so as to prevent a heart attack. Cholesterol is known to directly cause a heart attacks, because if applies layer upon layer to the walls of the artery, and chokes them until they cannot handle the pressure any longer. So watch your food intake and bring down the blood lipid or fat levels with proper diet and exercise to alleviate the risk of a heart attack.
- Assess your Risk Factors: So are you at risk of heart disease and possible heart attack? This will very much depend on your medical history and allied ailments. If you are suffering from high cholesterol or even diabetes, your chances of having clogged arteries and a subsequent heart attack may increase manifold. Also, you may have a family history of heart diseases which can increase the risk of such ailments in your case. So, it is wise to assess your risk factors and take measures like regular checkups, medication where required and even other measures like diet and exercise.
- Blood Pressure: To prevent a heart attack, you can also keep your blood pressure in check. Constant spikes and dips can lead to a malfunctioning heart which can weaken the heart muscles and lead to a fatal result like a heart attack. Further, high blood pressure can lead to wear and tear of the inner lining of your blood vessels, which makes it that much more difficult for blood flow and circulation. So keep a blood pressure measuring machine or cuff at home, or visit your doctor regularly to keep tabs on your blood pressure.
While these basic measures can help take care of the immediate and most direct causes of heart attacks, you can also avoid passive and active smoking, and indulge in a good diet with plenty of exercise to keep your heart healthy. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult a doctor.
Few tips to Lose Weight
Hi, I am 26 years old. I have hypothyroidism problem. My hypothyroidism range is b/w 5 to 16. This problem is from last one year. So which range thyroxine tabs for lifetime. And tongue is dry also. So please any one suggest.
If anyone having diabetes and physically active bsl fasting and pp and hba1c is within limits then would he/she stop oral hypoglycemic drugs and continue with only exercise and diet.
Every time dandruff on my head can you please suggest me medicine when ever I use oil dandruff stick on my head.

If you want to decrease your risk for heart disease, it may be important for you to reduce the added sugar in your diet.
Haemoglobin is a protein rich in iron and is found in red blood cells. The main function of haemoglobin is to carry oxygen throughout the body. In other words, it carries oxygen from the lungs to the other parts of the body so that the cells can carry on with their basic functions. It also carries carbon dioxide back to the lungs from those cells so that this gas can be exhaled.
Haemoglobin is important for maintaining a healthy life. The normal levels of haemoglobin in human body include:
• 14-18g/dl for adult men
• 12-16g/dl for adult women
Foods that improve haemoglobin
- Consume iron-rich food products: According to National Anaemia Action Council, lack of iron is the most common cause behind low haemoglobin levels. To improve iron content in your blood, you can take asparagus, tofu, almonds, oysters, fortified breakfast cereals, liver, red meat, shrimp, spinach, dates and lentils. However, consult your doctor for the right intake, as too much consumption of iron may be harmful for your health.
- Improve your vitamin C intake: Absorption of iron is improved if vitamin C is taken in adequate quantities. Lemon, tomatoes, papaya, oranges, strawberries, bell peppers, broccoli, grapefruit, etc. are some of the fruits that are rich in vitamin C. In fact, if there is a deficiency of vitamin C in our blood, haemoglobin levels go down. You may also take vitamin supplements to improve haemoglobin in your body, but consult a doctor first.
- Focus on food items rich in folic acid: This acid is basically vitamin B complex, which is required to make red blood cells. Food products that are rich in folic acid include rice, liver, breakfast cereals, sprouts, dried beans, wheat germ, peanuts etc. A diet comprising 200-400 milligrams of foliates is enough to supplement your Vitamin B needs.
- Include beetroot as a part of your diet: Rich in iron, folic acid, fibres and potassium, beetroot helps in augmenting haemoglobin levels. Drinking beetroot juice daily increases the iron content in your red blood cells.
- Have apples: They are rich in iron and if you have an apple daily, then your haemoglobin level will improve significantly. If possible, take a green apple with its skin. Apple juice mixed with beetroot juice has a marked effect on haemoglobin levels. You can also add some ginger or lemon juice to this mixture and have the concoction twice a day.
- Eat blackstrap molasses: This food is rich in iron, vitamin, folic acid etc. and improves the haemoglobin level in your blood. Take 2 tablespoons of blackstrap molasses and apple cider vinegar each, mix them in a cup of water and drink this concoction once a day.
After eating a meal to your heart's content, it is very normal to burp or belch. However, it is normal only when it happens occasionally, or after a meal, for someone used to a contented meal every single time. On the other hand, excessive burping or belching can happen due to two reasons.
- Excessive air intake: There are multiple ways that excessive air can reach the food pipe. Sucking on straws, chewing gum constantly and ill-fitting dentures are some common reasons for burping.
- Digestive problems: Ulcers in the stomach, prolonged gastric, gallstones and rarely, esophageal or stomach cancers can also cause burping.
When to see a doctor
Check with a doctor if you have persistent burping, followed by a meal or otherwise, and accompanied by the following symptoms.
- Nausea
- Bloody stools
- Abdominal pain
- Vomiting
- Weight loss
- Fever
Preventing belching
- Go slow when eating and/or drinking: Most of us are pressed for time and eating and/or drinking has now become a task that needs to be finished quickly. Eating fast causes air to be swallowed, and therefore one of the best ways to stop burping is to eat slowly. Sitting in a calm, relaxing environment when eating also allows one to enjoy the food and avoid or stop burping.
- Avoid taliking while eating: There is always so much to catch up, whether at home or outside. So, talking while eating is a common practice. This is not just bad manners, but there is also a lot of air that is swallowed, which leads to burping. A solution is to chew the food properly, which not just helps stop burping, but also aids in better food digestion by mixing it adequately with saliva.
- Substitute coke with water: Carbonated drinks are another reason for belching. Replacing them with water, tea, or anything noncarbonated is advisable, not just from burping perspective, but also from the excessive sugar consumption. Carbonated drinks are just sugar solutions, and are absolutely of no nutritive value.
- Avoid straw: When possible, drink from a glass and avoid straws. This reduces the amount of gas taken in and helps stop burping
- Quit smoking: Quitting it has multiple health benefits, and getting rid of smoking is just one of them.
- Dentures: Ill-fitting dentures can be a reason for belching, and so they should be checked and corrected, if required, in a person who has persistent burping.
- Chewing gum: Constantly chewing gum contributes to burping, and so avoiding chewing gum or sucking on hard candy is another way to control burping.
- Avoid certain foods: Foodstuffs like broccoli, cauliflower, lettuce, sprouts, and lentils can produce excessive gas and should be avoided in people who have persistent burping.
Follow the above steps in your daily routine; still if your burping problem persists, it is time to consult your physician.
Dandruff is one of the most common chronic hair conditions. It is characterized by a white, flaky substance on the scalp. Dandruff is not a serious condition and neither is it contagious. However, people still want it gone so that their hair looks better. Here are the symptoms as well as the causes of dandruff.
- Skin drying up: Dry skin is the most common cause of dandruff. The flakes from dry skin are usually less oily and smaller than with other forms of dandruff.
- Seborrhoeic dermatitis: Dandruff can also be caused by oily irritated skin. In this type of dandruff, red, greasy skin has flaky white or yellow scales covering it.
- Infrequent shampooing: This is also a very common cause of dandruff. This is because oil and skin cells accumulate, thus resulting in dandruff.
- Malassezia: Malassezia is a yeast like fungus. It is usually harmless and stays on the scalp of most adults. However, it is worth noting that sometimes the yeast may irritate the scalp and cause extra skin cells to grow. The skin cells then fall off and become flaky.
- Contact dermatitis: Contact dermatitis is a sensitivity to health care products and when you use too much shampoo, hair styling products or other chemicals, such as paraphenylenediamine, the red, itchy, scaly scalp associated with dandruff is caused.
- Other skin conditions: There are many other skin conditions, which cause dandruff as well. These include eczema and psoriasis. Eczema is a chronic skin disease, which causes the skin to become inflamed. Psoriasis is another skin condition. It is characterized by thick scales forming resulting from rough, dry, dead skin cells which build up rapidly.
These are just the causes of dandruff. Now you will see how to identify when you have dandruff by learning about the symptoms of dandruff.
- The symptoms of dandruff are pretty easy to spot. All that happens is that you will see white, flaky, dead skin cells in your hair.
- It is sometimes accompanied by an itchy, scaly scalp.
- There is also a type of dandruff called cradle cap, which occurs in newborns. Just like dandruff, it is not dangerous and goes away when the baby is 3 years old.
Many of us will get up with a hangover after partying away on the eve of the New Year. But worry not, these are a few proven ways to get rid of a hangover and start the New Year fresh and bushy tailed:
- Drink lots of water: Alcohol is extremely dehydrating. Water is thus, the world's best hangover cure. Alcohol messes up with the way the kidneys function and the body ends up losing around four times more water than usual. This leads to dehydration and causes symptoms like that thumping headache and dry mouth.
- Drink some frizzy water with a dash of lemon: The water will rehydrate you and the lemon and lime juice content which is alkaline will help balance the acid in your gut, quelling feelings of nausea. Fizzy drinks also speed up the break down of alcohol in the gut shortening the duration of a hangover.
- Take a mild painkiller: Painkillers that are paracetamol based are ideal for curing hangovers. They help with the headaches and muscle cramps. Just make sure that you don't pop aspirins as these can further irritate the stomach and can increase the feeling of nausea.
- Eat something mellow: A starchy and wholesome breakfast with toast is highly recommended. So are mellow foods like bananas, apples and rice. These soothing foods will fill up your stomach without irritating it.
- Quick headache cure: You can whip up a headache remedy by using off-the-shelf kitchen ingredients. All you have to do is mix one spoon of baking soda in water and drink it quickly to get rid of a headache. What also works is drinking the juice of a tomato mixed with lime. Even a serving of fresh tomato soup with basil can provide relief.
- Take a bath by all means, except hot water: January is a cold month and hot water is inviting, but it's not the best for getting rid of a hangover. And that's because hot water will only make your condition worse because your body is already feeling the heat due to last night's alcohol consumption which increases 'pitta' or fire element in the body according to Ayurveda. A cold water bath will help, but if you can't brave the cold, you could also go for a lukewarm shower.
- Get moving: Get out in the open and indulge in a light workout or a brisk walk. This will break down the alcohol toxins into the sweat. A few yoga stretches and breathing exercises are good too.
- Sleep it off: This is probably the best option for treating a hangover as most hangovers don't last longer than 24 hours. Catching up on sleep is so much better than moping at home with a headache. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult an ayurveda and ask a free question.
Dengue fever is a painful infection transmitted by the bite of one of the 4 closely related viruses that are carried by a type of mosquitoes known as Aedes mosquitoes. The infection is not directly from one person to another.
Symptoms: After the mosquito bite, symptoms set in about 4 to 6 days and can last up to 10 days (as noted below). Most are general symptoms which can be seen with any viral infection and therefore most dengue cases can go undetected.
- Sudden high temperature
- Pain behind the eyes
- Severe headache
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Severe bone and muscle pains (this can lead to suspicion of dengue)
- Fatigue
- Nausea and vomiting
- Skin rash that appears 3 to 5 days after the onset of fever
- There could be in some cases gum bleeding, easy bruising, or nose bleeding
The dengue triad of symptoms is fever, headache and the skin rash. This could lead to suspicion and blood tests that can lead to diagnosis.
The acute phase lasts for about 2 weeks in most cases and there is no antibiotic (it is a viral infection) cure for it. The treatment is therefore symptomatic, aimed at reducing fever and pains.
If left untreated, especially in children, a severe case called as Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) can occur, which affects children under 10 years of age and can cause failure of the circulatory system. This can also occur when a person is developing dengue for the second time. This is a serious form and can even lead to death; therefore the symptoms should be taken seriously and attended to immediately.
Diagnosis: Confirmation of dengue is through a blood test, where the virus is tested for.
Treatment: Being a viral infection, antibiotics are not effective against dengue. Pain killers with acetaminophen are preferred. Aspirin is avoided, as it can worsen bleeding. Complete bed rest, hydration and good nutrition are essential parts of the treatment. Being under medical supervision also helps watch out for complications. There is a vaccine under development that could become available in the next couple of years.
- Always use mosquito repellents, even indoors
- While being outdoors, use clothes that cover the arms and legs fully
- Use a mosquito net if your area is highly infested with mosquitoes
- Ensure the windows and doors are closed during the evening
- If you are suspicious of having dengue, reach out to the doctor
- Reduce chances for mosquitoes breeding by keeping the house clean
- If there are family members with dengue, protect yourself and them from mosquitoes
Preventing dengue is the best way to manage it; however, if once infected, the person develops immunity to it. Reduced immunity can put the person at risk of developing the condition again.
Sleep is an activity where you do nothing, but rest. You relax your body and mind, you rest your bones and muscles and you rest your eyes after a long day of physical exertion. It is extremely necessary for you to get ample amount of sleep to stay healthy.
Otherwise there are various problems which you might have to face if you are lacking sleep:
- Elevates the risk of stroke: According to study, people who get less sleep are more prone to having strokes than those who get enough sleep. If you sleep for less than 6 hours every day, you multiply the risk of have a stroke four times than ordinary.
- Obesity: Lack of sleep can cause obesity. It usually forces you to take erratic food decisions, leading you to eat a lot of junk food. Less sleep administers certain hormonal changes which make you feel hungrier and believe that you haven't eaten enough food. The production of the hormone ghrelin, which controls your hunger, increases due to less sleep. Hence, it may lead to obesity if you keep eating without keeping a check on what you eat.
- Increases the risk of diabetes: Sleep and the production of insulin are inversely related to each other. Among teenagers, the less you sleep; the more insulin resistant your body becomes. This means the body is not able to use the insulin effectively.
- Results in poor memory: Less sleep causes tiredness. When you are extremely tired, you are not able to focus on anything going on around you, you cannot concentrate on your work, and you get forgetful. In fact, consistent lack of sleep can even cause permanent loss of memory. This is because you are not being able to fully utilize the memory boosting ability of sleep. This eventually causes brain deterioration which results in permanent memory loss.
- Affects your heart: Lack of sleep can have an extremely negative impact on your heart. Less sleep also causes stress and strain to your body and mind. It results in an increased production of certain chemicals and hormones in the body which is harmful for your heart. According to a study in 2011, people who sleep less than 6 hours every day increase the risk of having heart problems by almost 48%.
It is not very healthy to sleep less as it can complicate your daily life activities. Sleep enough and stay healthy. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can consult the doctor and ask a free question.
Diwali is the celebration of lights. However, it has also become associated with noise, smoke and pollution. This can be credited to a large number of firecrackers, which are burst as part of Diwali celebrations. Pollution affects not only your skin but also your internal health and can lead to a number of health problems such as:
Respiratory problems
Smoke is a common byproduct of every firecracker. These suspended particles in the air, when inhaled, can lead to a number of respiratory problems. In some cases, this floating particulate matter may also contain heavy metal oxides and salts that can get deposited in the lungs and cause irreversible damage. Asthmatic patients often see a sudden spike in respiratory attacks around Diwali.
To deal with respiratory issues during Diwali, wear face masks to limit the inhalation of noxious fumes. Those who are suffering already from respiratory concerns should get themselves examined after Diwali to be on the safe side.
Digestive problems
While bursting crackers, a small residue of particulate matter is often left behind on your fingers. Since bursting crackers and enjoying sweetmeats go hand in hand on Diwali, there is a high chance of ingesting these chemicals. Even washing your hands may not get rid of all the chemical traces. This can lead to indigestion and a number of other digestive problems.
Take care to wash your hands thoroughly with soap before you touch any food item. You can use a sanitizer as well for extra protection. If you experience any gastric discomfort, visit a physician without delay.
Hearing problems
Pollution is not measured only by the levels of particulate matter in the air. Excessive noise that goes over the permissible decibel level leads to noise pollution. This can be in the form of noise emitted by firecrackers, loudspeakers etc. Noise pollution can lead to temporary deafness and damage the ear as well. It can also lead to sleeping problems, high blood pressure and permanent hearing loss.
To avoid noise-related problems, use ear plugs and keep your doors and windows closed. Heart patients should, especially get themselves checked by a doctor after Diwali or if a problem suddenly arises during festivities.
Skin problems
Many children and adults suffer from skin irritations and eczema during Diwali. This is largely due to pollutants in the air and chemical residue left on the skin. To keep skin problems at bay, drinks lots of water, use moisturiser, avoid fried food, cover your face with a cloth while burning crackers and wash your face afterwards thoroughly. For those already suffering from skin worries, consult your doctor for guidance.
The best way to limit your exposure to harmful chemicals and pollutants during Diwali is by celebrating an eco-friendly Diwali and saying 'no to crackers'. Additionally, try to stay indoors in the evening when crackers are being burnt and close all the windows and doors. Wearing a mask can also help prevent the inhalation of poisonous gases. This is especially necessary for people suffering from asthma and other such respiratory illnesses. Air pollutants do not clear away immediately and are present in the air for many days after Diwali as well. Hence, try staying indoors and keep the windows of your car rolled up for the next few days after Diwali as well.
Here are Causes, Symptoms, Tests and Precautions of Coronary Artery Disease.
Here are symptoms, type, effects, and Treatments of Diabetes
At present 3 out of the 5 people are suffering from diabetes and it is the 7th leading cause of death worldwide. Moreover, it is no more restricted just to adults and affects children as well. Diabetes is a metabolic disease resulting in increase in the level of glucose in the body. Glucose is a source of energy for the cells making up the muscles and other tissues in the body. But if the level of glucose goes up, it shows the sign of danger. Diabetes is of 2 types:
- Type 1: body fails to produce insulin.
- Type 2: Body fails to produce enough insulin which is required by the body.
There are no definite signs of diabetes. It simply varies from person to person. In many of the cases it goes unnoticed. Such signs are as follows:
- Sudden weight loss: You might experience a sudden weight loss of 5 to10 kgs within a month. This happens when sugar metabolism ceases very quickly. Insufficient insulin prevents the body from taking in glucose in the body cells from the blood to use as energy. In such a scenario the body starts burning fat and muscle for energy. This results in weight loss.
- Intense hunger: The cells in your body might not get enough energy either due to absence or improper functioning of insulin in your blood. This makes you hungry quite often.
- Excessive urination and thirst: Due to diabetes, the glucose level in the body goes up. The kidneys are overloaded with the burden of working overtime for filtering and absorbing the excess glucose in your body. The excess sugar, which the kidney cannot store is excreted out of your body. This makes you urinate frequently. Due to frequent urination the body gets dehydrated which makes you feel thirsty more often.
- Blurred vision: Due to the high level of glucose in your body tissues gets pulled away from the lens of the eyes. This results in vision issues. If not treated on time, it may even lead to blindness.
- Increased fatigue: The cells in your body might not get enough energy either due to absence or improper functioning of insulin in your blood. This makes you restless more often and you may even feel too weak to do your regular activities.
If you notice any of these signs, get the level of sugar in your checked and take the required remedies. It is good to get it treated as early as possible rather than facing immense trouble in future.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, as it is commonly known is a digestive disorder that is caused primarily due to intestinal distress. GERD is caused in the muscle that lies between the oesophagus and the stomach, when the acid produced in the stomach starts to flow backwards. For patients suffering from GERD, the acids flow back into the oesophagus instead of the stomach, causing symptoms like severe heartburn, chest pain and nausea, among others.
So what does one do to deal with GERD? Here's a brief list:
- Control weight: Being overweight and obese are two of the most important factors that contribute to discomfort in GERD patients. Working towards a healthier weight is a sure shot way of dealing with this ailment.
- Avoid alcohol and smoking: The LES or the muscle ring that can be found between the stomach and the oesophagus relaxes with the intake of alcohol or with smoking, which prevents it from closing, in order to stop the stomach's juices from reaching the oesophagus. So, giving up both substances would be a good idea if you are a GERD patient.
- Go gluten free: Adopting a gluten free diet can help you cut ingredients, including grains and dairy products that contain more protein than what your digestive tract can handle.
- Other dietary measures: In order to handle GERD effectively, you will need to remove or reduce chocolate, fatty food, spicy food, and even oily and fried food from your diet. You may need the help of food with extra fibre, like fruit, so that food can pass through the digestive tract faster.
- Smaller and well timed meals: Eating meals regularly and dividing them into smaller meals that can be digested quickly and more efficiently is one of the best ways of dealing with GERD to prevent the onset of backward flowing stomach acids.
- Exercise: Ensuring that you do not take a nap or lie down right after a meal and doing exercise everyday will also help in doing away with the uncomfortable and painful symptoms of this disease.
Making lifestyle changes is one of the best ways to deal with GERD. Yet, it would be best to see a doctor regarding severe cases where the symptoms do not abate and medication may be required.

A million years ago, I lived in a tiny one bedroom basement apartment in the university district of Waterloo. Those were the days when the life sustaining acts of sleeping and eating were a nuissance - nothing more than an obstacle in the daily quest for party time. Back then we drank a lot of Red Bull and ate nothing that couldn't be defrosted or cooked by someone else.
Sometimes, I lie awake at night wondering how many years I shaved off my life during my stint as a university student.
While the produce portion of the refrigerator was shockingly empty for four solid years, the freezer compartment was loaded full of industrial-sized trans fats, refined sugars, mystery meat and a shocking number of things labeled "Atkins-friendly" that I vehemently believed were going to one day make me skinny.
I've come to learn that 99% of things that are meant to be stored in North American freezers will actually have the opposite effect on your waistline. And it only took me four years of university to realize this.
Regardless, next to frozen pizzas and microwaveable dinners, one of our freezer staples in those days was a 30-pack of Jamaican patties, purchased in the "club" section of the supermarket. And while I had no quams digesting some highly questionable crap in those days, the Jamaican patties that Paul used to buy were even too sketchy for me. He loved them though, and when he stopped eating meat he stopped eating those too.
The latest edition to my cookbook army is Bryant Terry's Vegan Soul Kitchen and out of the dozens of recipes in it that I bookmarked during my first glimpse through, something about the Jamaican patties seemed inevitable as the first thing to try.
I am generally terrible at making dishes that require a homemade crust or dough. I don't understand what it is that I do wrong, because I am certainly not brave enough to attempt creating a dough recipe on my own and instead use a recipe that has been published and printed and is assumed to be tried, tested and true. Regardless, it never works out for me! I'm going to go ahead and blame the oven I use or the flour manufacturers or the humidity in my kitchen or the way the moon aligns the sun every single time that I attempt it.
Because dough/crust-making can be both a tedious and meticulous process, whenever I fail at one of these projects I usually just scrap the recipe in an a declaration of defeat rather than try to tweak it at a later date.
So, I approached these Jamaican patties with a lot of apprehension and a little bit of caution and before I even began measuring flour I told Paul to prepare for disaster.
Imagine my surprise when I pulled the dough out of the fridge (after letting it sit an hour and a half or so) and it not only held together but also rolled out with minimal resistance and looked the gorgeous yellow-ish colour it was supposed to (thanks turmeric!).
Using a bowl to cut the dough into 6" circles is a very useful tip from Mr. Terry, although next time I think I'll make four really big patties rather than six medium-sized ones. However, the 6" circles are great if serving the patties as an appetizer or starter - they would make a great party food, fanned out on a plate with a bowl of hot sauce in the middle.
For the filling: Potatoes, carrots, cabbage, corn, and peas tossed with spices and made thick and creamy with coconut milk.
Ready for the oven!
The shell is flaky and savoury, the filling spicy and slightly sweet from the coconut milk - what a combo! Topped off with an additional few drops of cayenne hot sauce and you are ready to go.
To go with the patties I made a coleslaw, also from Vegan Soul Kitchen. I will note, however, that I am a huge cheater when it comes to cabbage and I buy those terrifying "prepackaged" coleslaw bags of the sort that always seem to end up on the news because of E. Coli concerns. I just can't be bothered to mess with shredding a massive head of cabbage and so I tend to take my chances with the E. Coli - don't judge! In making this salad I just used Bryant's dressing (which is delicious, by the way) and tossed it with a bag of shredded cabbage, let it marinate for a couple hours and then tossed in sesame seeds and a little extra hot sauce.
Find the recipe for the Jamaican patties here and the Carrot-Cayenne Coleslaw here.
I think Bryant Terry and I are going to be great friends.

Jackals Fall to Norfolk, 4-1
Tyler Currier scored his fourth goal in six games since joining the Jackals in a trade with Orlando, but Elmira would fall at home tonight to Norfolk, 4-1.
The Admirals got on the board first at 3:19 of the opening period with a point shot from Jordan Hill. Michael Pelech and Radoslav Illo earned the helpers on Hill's second of the year. Later in the first period, the Admirals would add to their lead with a redirection by Tom Mele in the slot off of Charles Roussel's shot from the blueline. Steven Whitney also assisted Mele's second of the season.
Neither team would score in the second period despite Elmira out-shooting Norfolk 13-3 in the middle frame. The Jackals controlled the play and possessed the better scoring chances, but could not beat Norfolk netminder, Nic Riopel.
The Jackals entered the third period with a two-goal deficit, but an early interference call against Nick Petrecki provided Norfolk with an opportunity to extend it's lead and change the tide of the contest. Alexandre Ranger received a cross-ice feed and ripped a shot off the far post and past C.J. Motte. Gabriel Verpaelst and Samuel Noreau assisted Ranger's third goal of the season. The Admirals pushed their lead to 4-0 at 12:32 of the third period as Steven Whitney capitalized on a two-on-one rush. Tom Mele and Charles Roussel assisted Whitney's second of the season. Less than a minute later, the Jackals answered and cut the deficit down to three. Nick Petrecki found Colin Jacobs with a feed and Jacobs fired a low shot off the pad of Ty Rimmer, which popped out to Tyler Currier in front for his fourth goal in six games as a Jackal. Despite a furious push and out-shooting Norfolk 37-17, the Jackals did not cut any further into the deficit and fell 4-1.
C.J. Motte stopped 13 of 17 shots faced, but was handed the loss. Nic Riopel stopped all 27 shots faced before leaving the game due to an injury suffered when Justin Bernhardt collided with him. Riopel still earned the win as Ty Rimmer came in and stopped nine of 10 shots faced in relief duty.

How can CEOs understand social technologies?
Posted by George Colony on May 7, 2009

Quickly: The only way CEOs can understand social technologies is by using them.
Content: I've got bad news for you. You can't understand Twitter, Facebook, or blogging by reading an article in a magazine or a report from your CMO. Sure, they can tell you what they are, but you won't be able to truly understand how they could change your business unless you actually use them.
Social is like sex. It's fun to talk about and read about, but you can't truly comprehend unless you do it.
Here's a story. Forrester's COO, Charles Rutstein, and I made fun of Twitter when it came out. Twitter is the technology that enables you to send short messages (of approximately 25 words) to people who elect to monitor you on their PCs or cell phones. We instantly pronounced the whole concept to be brain dead. A few months later Forrester bought Jupiter Research. Charles said to me, shortly after we bought the company, "Hey, those analysts at Jupiter like being part of Forrester." I said, "How do you know?" He said that he was watching their Twitter streams and the feedback was positive. I signed up for Twitter the next day.
The CEO of Zappos, Tony Hsieh, uses social extensively and now has 300 customer service reps at the company on Twitter. Why? As Tony says..."People don't relate to companies, they relate to people." This is important insight. You, the 57 year old CEO may not use social, but that doesn't mean that your customers don't use social. You are not your customer.
Yes, much of the social technology is a titanic time waster. And yes, much of the technology is crap. But there may be real value here for your company -- something that you can't grasp unless you engage with social.
I'll have future posts on how the CEO can get on Twitter, Facebook, and other social networks to learn the most in the shortest amount of time. If you like books, Forrester has a good one out on the topic -- go here to buy, and go here to see Forrester's latest thinking regarding social. A little techie, but full of good stories about how real companies have used social to their advantage.
Social media is one of the

Social media is one of the key factors in the modern world for people to connect to various people across the globe.

You've already figured out one powerful technique, George. I came here because you tweeted the link. Good to see Forrester's CEO showing the way.As for the sex metaphor, I'm reminded of Elvis Costello in "Mystery Dance" - "You can see those pictures in any magazine, but what's the use of looking if you don't know what they mean?"

One quick way to get it? Visit http://search.twitter.com/ and search for your own brand.

Good point. The only thing I would add is to use it for a minimum of 30 days, and try to reach out and interact with some folks who you would never,ever ususally talk with....it is only then that you can 'get it."

Comment from Vijay Rayapati (not verified) on Thu, 05/07/2009 - 14:46
Excellent post,crisp and clear. Many people told me why so many people don't get it[social media], my response always was you cannot see value unless you use it so don't force anybody, let them discover.

Comment from Gail McDaniel (not verified) on Thu, 05/07/2009 - 15:05
Like the previous comment, I, too, read the blog based on the Forrester tweet. I also agree that the best way to learn how social media works is to dive right in and get wet. It's a bit intimidating at first--especially for baby boomers like me--but its well worth the experience and the fun.

Comment from Steve Farnsworth @TheRealPRMan (not verified) on Thu, 05/07/2009 - 16:40
Getting into social media and trying it really is the best way to grasp it. I regularly have clients tell me that twitter, or name some other social media here, is not for them, their customers, or their company. When I hear this I ask if they have hands-on experience or if they have a plan on how it is going to integrate with their marketing. The response is always, no. You have to understand and test it before rejecting it.

GeorgeGood post. One of the best Tweeters I know is Padmasree Warrior (@Padmasree), Cisco's CTO. She has over 370K follower (I am probably light as it grows quickly), which is, approximately, 20X Mark Cuban :->Also, CXOs care about returns.

George,Great post. I fully agree that the only way to find out if "social" can be a meaningful route for you and/or your company is to engage! Thanks for helping to lead the way for those at the top of organizations doing just that. Keep up the great work. :)

I totally agree on the executives need to be involved to understand. That applies to everything. It is important for any executive to be out there and better in person than on Twitter. Twitter maybe a passing phenomenon such as Second Life. Social networks such as LinkedIN are fantastic tools. But there is a lot more in terms of understanding the needs for the same human interaction within a business. And that is sofar being missed. Enterprise 2.0 is not just Web 2.0 behind the firewall. E20 has to be architectured and secure and still social. For me it has to be part of a powerful, architectured collaboration platform that drives corporate processes. Analysed and planned processes such as proposed by SOA-BPM are dead because nowhere near agile. Twitter is not enough in terms of auditability ... so you need the best of both worlds.

George, thanks for voicing a profound point. At the risk of sounding simplistic, Web 2.0 and social networks are disruptive, so they force CEOs and CMOs to unlearn selectively, to question sacred cows:-Talk to and convince the customer-Own the brand-Take care of employees-Exploit resources-Create efficiency through control-Zero sumExecutives set the tone for their organizations, so it's critical that they get some organic experience. Social networks are not about new technology, they refine relationships and how people live--and make buying decisions.We used to be limited to the people with whom we were co-located geographically. Now interest is the tie, which will accelerate knowledge growth geometrically because people with highly specific interests ("geeks" for transfer pricing, Brazilian patent leather, Tanzanian carpets, Bohemian crystal) to find each other and accelerate each other's knowledge and collaboration.Because industries controlled the means of production, they made, and people bought. Now it's collaborative. Who produces now? Distributes? Value chains are exploding, and it's only starting. Chances are it's people like all of us, creating playlists, contributing reviews, tweeting book reviews. The production is a commodity, it's distribution and sharing that will increasingly drive sales. Facebook's approach to globalizing is genius.Enterprises are not collaborative, but they have to get there fast to maintain or increase relevance. They have a producer mindset.My Executive's Guide series is founded on a similar premise to yours: that executives need to learn enough to appreciate and be informed adopters of these new approaches to business process. Collaborativeness will be the make/break characteristic for relevance and profitability for many businesses. People think it's a "technology" but that's a red herring; it's a whole new way of being. We will laugh at "business/IT alignment" because we will see it pale beside "customer/company" misalignment."Thanks again for emphasizing a crucial point!

Great post.Social tools are great. E2.0 is also great.But if you see, most people who need to read this are not reading owing to them being un-"social". All the comments and the readers come either through twitter, yammer or similar tools, but what is the way to get the "target audience" to read this and then dive in?How are we going to drive home the point that social tools are really necessary in this fast changing world? If I am talking about using inside an Enterprise, security, productivity loss, bandwidth loss are the biggest concerns.

Excellent post. I would add that you can't learn social media from an agency that doesn't have the street cred of already being part of the community and having a track record.

Hey George,You said it all when you said most of it is time-wasting...and, well, you elaborated quite crisply...no need to repeat.Here is my somewhat grumpy post about the arrival and departure of Twitterers -- building on a CG Lynch cio.com column, adding my own advice as to why there is such a high percentage (60% of Twitter users quit after 30 days -- according to a Nielson survey) of 'Twitter Quitters'.http://www.ageinplacetech.com/content/twitter-arrival-and-departure-twitterers-twitter-quittersToday I 'un-followed' numerous power tweeters who blast out multiple tweets per hour or half day (I think of it as bulk tweeting).In turn, I am sure they are using 'Qwitter' to find out that I gave up on their tsunami tweeting. For those who wonder about Qwitter:http://technofriends.in/2008/10/24/how-to-know-when-someone-unfollows-you-on-twitter/For the paranoid and for PR folks, Tweetbeep will send you an e-mail whenever your name is mentioned.http://tweetbeep.com/Add that to Twitter's own alerts about follows, it's all sort of like monitoring a train station:now arriving, now departing, and now whispering behind your back.

Your right about the time waster, however outsourcing or having software throw updates and generate friends is the way to go b/c you never know when people are just tweeting or reading the tweets?. . . so many people to follow and read makes it saturated, therefore takes up time. . . what's nice is facebook and twitter work together on their feeds!
re: How can CEOs understand social technologies?
Comment from John Cass (not verified) on Sun, 06/07/2009 - 22:36
George,Your post reminded me of some of my observations about social media in general, which I thought I'd share.When I first started using Twitter, I was not entirely sure of its utility. However, I've been actively blogging since 2003, and using other social media technologies for longer. From that time I've come to understand that a new social media technology has a utility that you don't always fully understand yet, you have to spend some time on learning the technology to find that utility.I really understood the particular advantages of Twitter once I attended a conference, and was able to connect with people in the conference room more quickly than I'd been able to do so previously with writing a live conference blog post.While participation is important when adopting a new social media technology, I think a good observer can learn about how social media works by asking questions. I did this in my early days of blogging, when I talked to a lot of companies about their use of blogs for marketing, product management and customer service. Many of the corporate social media engagers told me their success in social media came from active monitoring and engagement.At first glance, social media appears to be all about content. It is, but a different type of writing traditional marketers have experienced when writing a thought leadership piece for a column. Social media writing is the opportunity to engage with other people. If you blog, tweet or reside in a social media community, writing content is not just about being a columnist or host, rather you have to be an active engager. If you don't actively engage your community you will not truly be able to gain the opportunity that comes from speaking with, and learning from the community. If there's no give and take, there's no relationship building, and you're not getting the maximum utility out of the social media technology.To engage a community requires time; time to observe, filter and engage.I'm wondering why you and Charles made fun of Twitter when it first came out?I recall that not so long ago, many business people made fun of Twitter, and when they did, I had to think about Twitter's utility; I thought, surely so many people criticizing the technology had to be right? However, I remembered in the early days of my adoption with many other social technologies I had to go through a learning curve, and in the end the fundamental of engagement was the opportunity. I just had to determine, either through observation or participation what the social interaction design for engagement was from Twitter. I did.Now the tide has turned for Twitter, and the naysayers are becoming active enthusiasts.The story of Twitter growth becomes to me yet another classic example of the Technology Life cycle model, where the authors Bohlen, Beal & Rogers developed a model for hybrid seed corn adoption by farmers.* Innovators - had larger farms, were more educated, more prosperous and more risk-oriented* Early adopters - younger, more educated, tended to be community leaders* Early majority - more conservative but open to new ideas, active in community and influence to neighbors* Late majority - older, less educated, fairly conservative and less socially active* Laggards - very conservative, had small farms and capital, oldest and least educatedI'd put myself in the early adopter category. I don't think I was an innovator with Twitter. Where would you put yourself?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_adoption_lifecycle

Dry skin and patches
Hi, I have been living in Bangalore for the past 3 years. Recently I am developing extremely dry skin -face, hands and legs. After a particular point it turns into dark patches. I drink at least 4lit of water every day. Can you please suggest a solution.

You don't need to drink so much water daily. 2 litres a day is sufficient. To preserve the moisture content of the skin you need to use a moisturising lotion. In case of very dry skin like yours you will need to use some advanced therapeutic moisturisers. You can get them prescribed by a dermatologist near you. As for dark patches, dry skin can sometimes cause an eczema and lead to dark patches when the eczema is subsiding. They can be treated by anti inflammatory creams or depigmenting creams.

Mondelez International Inc.'s MDLZ, -0.29% second-quarter profit fell 40% in the absence of contributions from discontinued operations, though core earnings and revenue edged higher.
Mondelez also said Wednesday that it has approved the repurchase of $6 billion shares through 2016, up from its previous authorization of $1.2 billion. The company expects to buy back $1 billion to $2 billion in shares a year, subject to market conditions.
In a further effort to boost shareholder returns, Mondelez also raised its quarterly dividend by 8% to 14 cents a share. This is its first dividend increase since 2008.
Class A shares rose 2.4% to $32 after hours.
The maker of Oreos, Cadbury chocolates, Ritz crackers and Trident gum fell short of its target annual growth rate for the fourth straight quarter since it spun off its North American grocery business in October. The company's organic sales growth, which strips out currency effects, acquisitions and divestitures, reached 3.8% in the latest quarter, below the targeted 5% to 7% growth rate, as low coffee prices continued to temper sales growth.
Mondelez is pinning its hopes on snackers in emerging markets like Northeast Brazil and China to accelerate sales growth.
Chief Executive Irene Rosenfeld said Wednesday the company expects to see these investments to pay off with quicker growth in the second half of the year, despite signs of slowing category growth in markets like China, Brazil and Russia.
Mondelez reported a second-quarter profit of $616 million, or 34 cents a share, down from $1.03 billion, or 58 cents a share, a year earlier. Excluding items like restructuring costs, adjusted earnings on continuing operations reached 37 cents in the latest period, from 36 cents a year earlier.
Revenue edged up 0.8% to $8.6 billion.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters were expecting per-share earnings of 34 cents on revenue of $8.62 billion.
Gross margin narrowed slightly to 37.6% from 37.7%.
In North America, organic sales were up 2.3%, due to strong demand for cookies, offset by declining gum sales.
Organic sales were up 9.6% in Latin America, 3.3% in the Asia Pacific region and 11% in Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Interest and other expenses grew 32%.
The year-earlier period included $544 million in income from discontinued operations.

Re: Henry T. Laurency on anthroposophy
Expand Messages
- Hello,
I was interested in what you posted and I have some thoughts only for
the link that you've posted.
I read that this author has more books but I read only about Steiner's
.It seems to me that he have something with Steiner himself and he is
putting him to his trial but he has not very much to say about
Anthroposophia as a movement.
So, I think that is not our job to judge this author, but for you,
because you are inquired about that, is good to know his opinions.
As you may see not in that material, the real "break" of Anthroposophy
and Theosophy was the movement of Annie Bessant and Leadbeater to put
a young indian boy named Krishnamurti in the role of the second coming
of Christ as phisical incarnations. That was the point that Rudolf
Steiner was against of, with all his strength.
As you may notice - the Mystery of Golgotha - is the Major Mystery of
mankind - and the Christ is the fundament of Rudolf Steiner's work.
Also, many theosophist "forgot" this episode; mainly, because they did
not know what can real cause their thoughts and acts of will, wrongly
used, in Spiritual Realm. (and also, like in the phisical realm for
Also, the Rosicrucian part- is a strange part. Also, in our days are
maybe 20 Rosicrucian streams - all of them "genuine".
But, for sure, there is "one" that is real - and I am almost sure that
Rudolf Steiner knew this stream.:-)
But for me it is seems more obvious that in this works allways the
author want to attract the readers in other ideas to forget the
initial purpose.
The major problem for these persons or author remains Christ.
Because Christ is the purpose and not other thing.
For the part of the "screws fixed" was really funny. But be sure, that
it will be a moment in your life when you will have to fix your own
head's screws and you will have to choose : thinking or hammer:)))

- Ha, for me, it's hammer time any time! :)))
Otherwise, yes, you said many of the things that are now so perplexing
me. He not mentioning the Chrisnamurti-case, what's up with that? And
so much more. Even then he makes me feel so very, very unsure, as with
thorough investigation his overall points of view seems just as good
as that of anthroposophy. Yet they are in contradiction of one
another. One or the other is a way of stray.
