			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/09/image.png"><img style="margin: 5px" height="156" alt="image" src="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/09/image-thumb.png" width="200" align="right" border="0"></a> <strong><u>Make your number one goal health rather than weight loss:- </u></strong>If you are setting your goal as a healthy lifestyle, then you are much more likely to succeed not only in improving your health but also in attaining a permanent level of weight loss. You should not be too anxious about dropping a lot of weight right away because what is extremely crucial to this process is enjoying the entire experience from beginning to end. You are going to want to associate this experience with reaching a healthy and natural weight through healthy eating. It may take longer to achieve your goals but it is much better for your health this way.
<p><strong><u>One major reason that leads people to drop out of their weight loss program is hitting a plateau:-</u></strong> Your weight loss may be halted as a result of muscle mass gaining and the expansion of blood vessels, but these are actually phenomena that you should desire rather than despise. If you are hitting a weight loss plateau, it may mean that you are gaining muscle, and muscle weighs much more than fat does. If you are doing everything right and still not losing weight, the odds are you are gaining healthy muscle mass rather than simply not getting healthy.
<p><strong><u>Do not ever rush your reduction of weight:- </u></strong>One of the most vital issues when it comes to weight loss is doing it slow and steady. Most people that lose weight too quickly end up gaining it all right back. You need to take it slow, steady and easy and let it come naturally rather than forcing weight loss. Your body knows what weight is right for you, so let it happen gradually for the best results.
<p><strong><u>Get enough exercise:- </u></strong>Physical activity is vitally important to lowering your set point where your body gravitates to a specific weight, burning calories and increasing your natural metabolic level which is the level at rich you will burn calories naturally, even while at rest. You should burn at least 300 calories through exercise every single day in order to achieve the best results.
<p><strong><u>Finally, you need to do whatever you can in order to naturally raise your metabolic rate</u>:- </strong>One of the primary factors involved in determining your own personal metabolic rate is the number of cell mitochondria. These are tiny little energy factories that are responsible for fueling every cell in your entire body. The more of these cell mitochondria that you have, the more energy you are going to burn, which is going to keep you in better shape. Muscle cells have more cell mitochondria, so building muscles is vitally important in allowing yourself to burn calories and speed up your metabolism for health and wellness.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A year ago, the partnership between Singapore’s Radio Network MediaCorp with India’s leading FM Network BIG92.7 FM saw the birth of Singapore’s only Bollywood Radio Station ‘BIG Bollywood 96.3 FM’.
<p>The Station has stood true to its promise of entertaining listeners who love Bollywood and seek entertainment on the same, by offering them an excellent programming mix. The last one year has seen the Station grow tremendously as it today boasts of sharing listeners with top channels like Class,98.7 FM &amp; Power FM and caters not just to the Indian expat but also the population of Chinese,Tamilians and Malays. The Station has been providing entertainment for all, across SEC segmentations and age groups with its music offering varying from current chartbusters to retro music.
<p>As the very subject indicates, this Station has managed to grow listeners while not just restricting itself to Indians, but the larger Malay &amp; Chinese audiences too who love Bollywood entertainment. Bollywood is beyond Indians and its listener base just goes to prove the same. The Station has grown to be a very favourite of the local populace in a very short period of time.
<p>The Station has successfully captured over 80% of Indian expat market. The Station’s listener base sees 80% listenership from the expat population and rest 20% from the local populace comprising Tamilians, Malays &amp; Chinese.</p>

<p><a href="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/08/image5.png"><img height="240" alt="image" src="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/08/image-thumb5.png" width="174" align="right" border="0"></a> Apparently Japan, and now Korea, have gone ape over the banana diet, causing banana shortages in Japan.&nbsp; The gist of the diet is basically this: eat a banana and warm water for breakfast, then eat a normal lunch and dinner. To be honest, it&#8217;s not a bad idea.&nbsp; Bananas are good for&nbsp; you, provide lots of important nutrients, and ensure that you start off the day in the right way.&nbsp; And, it&#8217;s easy.&nbsp; For people who don&#8217;t like eating breakfast, a banana is fast, portable, and palatable.
<p>The problem is with the &#8220;theories&#8221; behind the diet.&nbsp;&nbsp; In an article on the diet, the rationale for why the diet works was that bananas are easily digested and allow the stomach to &#8220;rest longer.&#8221;&nbsp; It went on to say that foods that are more difficult to digest cause the entire body to tire out, making the body prone to weight gain.&nbsp; This is laughable and twisted science.
<p>It is true that complex carbohydrates like vegetables, whole grains, and proteins are more difficult to break down and assimilate; however, this digestion actually provides for a greater calorie burn, and enable you to feel full for longer.&nbsp; Your body and stomach were designed to accommodate the digestion of complex foods, so the idea that this would tax the body too much and lead to weight gain is completely fabricated.
<p>That said, eating bananas for breakfast is a reasonable diet plan.&nbsp; Bananas are healthy, provide important nutrients, are low in calories, and are filling.&nbsp; They also come in &#8220;prepackaged&#8221; portions that prevent a person from over-consuming.&nbsp; It&#8217;s no wonder that people subscribing to this plan would successfully achieve weight loss, it&#8217;s just not for the reasons that the diet describes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/08/image2.png"><img style="margin: 5px" height="200" alt="image" src="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/08/image-thumb2.png" width="200" align="left" border="0"></a> Despite our national propensity to overeat, under-exercise, and grow steadily heavier and more out of shape, we all yearn to be slender, fit, and attractive. Our culture rewards the thin and the beautiful; look at how we devour celebrity gossip, mesmerized by the looks and energy of our current favorites. Why the discrepancy between our aspirations and our reality? There are a plethora of reasons, most of which can be traced to the simple fact that life gets in the way.
<p>“I’d love to cut back on my food intake,” we think, “But I have to attend all these work functions and have little control over the meals that are served.” “I would really like to get in shape,” we complain, “But there’s no free time and I can’t afford a personal trainer like the movie stars I see.” “I really want to take care of my skin and my body,” we wail, “But I’m so busy that a quick shower and a slap of moisturizer is all I can fit into my schedule.”
<p>It would be so wonderful to have loads of free time: to plan our days; to cook low calorie, healthy meals; to exercise without time constraints; to be able to pamper ourselves without the pressure of deadlines. Unfortunately, our lives are too hectic for that to happen in the foreseeable future. We can throw up our hands in frustration and join the legions of the overweight and the unfit, or we can work out a personal plan that fits within our lifestyle, taking us where we want to go, albeit not quite as quickly or completely as we would prefer.
<p>Your life, your time, the demands and responsibilities you face, vary on an individual basis. You will need to calculate what works for you, and what cannot be realistically accommodated. Here are some ideas to consider:
<p><strong>1. Diet</strong>
<p><a href="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/08/image3.png"><img height="240" alt="image" src="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/08/image-thumb3.png" width="158" align="right" border="0"></a> Eating on the run, at your desk, or on the rubber chicken circuit, wreaks havoc with even the best-laid diet plans. If you weigh even a pound more than you’d like, try to identify where you are going astray.
<p>If fast food on your way to an appointment is your downfall, look at what you order. Almost all drive-thrus these days offer salads. The problems with those salads can be minimized by throwing away the little bag of croutons (fried) and omitting the packaged dressings (loaded with fat). Carry your own individual container of low calorie dressing, opt for (unsweetened) ice tea, black coffee, or a diet soda, and avoid those sugar-laden colas like the plagues they are.
<p>If you lunch at your desk, ask yourself what are you eating? If it’s takeout, by all means have a cheeseburger or a sandwich. Just discard the bread or bun and eat with a plastic knife and fork, cut into raisin-sized pieces that will fill you up fast. French fries and onion rings? You just don’t want to go there.
<p>Is your office always filled with snacks and treats (as most of them seem to be these days)? When the snacks come by, go to the bathroom or, better yet, take a brisk walk around the building to beef up your “won’t” power and clear the vision of goodies from your head.
<p>If business lunches, dinners, or those awful meeting banquets are your obstacles, plan ahead. Lunch is relatively easy: salad (with your own dressing, of course) or fish and cottage cheese are available almost anywhere. For dinner, try two low calorie appetizers instead of an entrée. Best of all is something that you have to work at – crab legs, unpeeled shrimp, an artichoke (hold the hollandaise) – it will take a lot of time and no one will notice how little you are actually eating.
<p>Banquets are particularly difficult because a plate is plunked in front of you, filled with food you would never order by choice. Cut whatever protein and vegetables there are into little pieces and chew slowly. Spread the rest out over your plate and play with it to delay the onset of a syrupy dessert. Get a cup of black coffee and place it squarely in front of you to thwart that eager-beaver waiter who keeps trying to slide a plate of pie onto your table.
<p>Entertaining in the home creates a different set of problems because usually you know the hostess and want to avoid creating any bad feelings. Fall back on allergies as no one wants to see you break out in hives in the middle of their party. Carry a club soda or mineral water with you and no one will notice that you’re not drinking.
<p>Over a period of time, these little changes can have a significant impact on your weight. If you’re hungry when you get home, make sure that you have some liquid protein or a health shake available to complete your daily nutritional needs.
<p><strong>2. Exercise.</strong>
<p><a href="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/08/image4.png"><img style="margin: 5px" height="200" alt="image" src="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/08/image-thumb4.png" width="200" align="left" border="0"></a> With the best of intentions, millions of us purchase gym memberships. If we all actually used them on a regular basis, as we promise ourselves we will, there would be waiting lines spilling into the streets. Health clubs can keep signing up more and more members because they know that the number of regulars will stay about the same as the new enrollees will show up in a burst of initial enthusiasm but within a few short weeks will gradually fade away.
<p>Unless you have a job with very regular hours, something few of us enjoy these days, it’s difficult to commit to going somewhere on a regular basis. We mean to go but then an important meeting comes up, our significant other asks us to do something, or the kids pester us to drive them somewhere.
<p>Our high demand lives almost force us to obtain our exercise at home. Television is replete with home equipment that promises to flatten our abs, define our pects, and re-sculpt our entire bodies. Despite their assurances that the equipment easily folds away, we know our apartments can never accommodate a Bowflex or a Nordic Track. Where do those buyers live? In the suburbs, we suspect, where the expensive equipment is soon relegated to the basement or the garage to gather dust until some future yard sale comes along. Equipment, except for minimal contraptions such as elastic bands and hand weights, are just too much trouble, and setting them up takes too much time.
<p>Slipping exercise into your schedule is most easily handled (and therefore more likely to be regularly repeated) by pursuing activities that can be initiated without any preparation time, special clothes, or long periods free of interruption. The old standbys of pushups, situps, stretches with weights, yoga, and calisthenics have stood the test of time for a reason. They can be inserted into your crowded schedule at odd moments of the day and require no preparation except a short warm-up. Some of the newer programs: callanetics, pilates (some), killer exercises, and video workouts also fit these requirements.
<p>When you unexpectedly find a secret half hour free, take a walk and, if you can, magnify its benefits with an occasional bout of sprinting.
<p>Such a plan may not make you into a Mr. or Ms. Universe but it will keep you limber and semi-fit while avoiding that energy-devouring guilt you develop when you set your sights too high and then fail to follow through.
<p><strong>3. Taking care of yourself.</strong>
<p>We have all read the accounts of Cleopatra bathing in asses’ milk to bleach and smooth her skin. But she was a Queen, for heaven’s sake! She didn’t have to get up at the crack of dawn to fight the traffic into the office. She didn’t have to take care of a husband, a house, or a child. You’d have the time to leisurely bathe if it weren’t for cleaning the house, washing the clothes, finishing that report for the office, helping the kids with their homework, cooking dinner, and picking up Aunt Mildred at the airport.
<p>We know we need to take care of ourselves. We want to perform the routines that will stave off the signs of age that wait just around the corner. We would love to take a long daily bath or shower, polish our skin to perfection with a loofah and scrubbing powders, envelop ourselves in skin softeners and lotions, and pamper our face and hair with special cleansers, masques, and skin brighteners.
<p>Again, our lives get in the way. We work out a minimal routine of makeup remover, toner, and moisturizer. We shampoo our hair when we can and occasionally find the time for a special oil treatment or facial. It is hard to be fully motivated when the signs of age are brief and fleeting. When I have more time, we tell ourselves, I’ll work on it. Twenty years later, the wrinkles have set in, the jowls have puffed out, and our skin carries the scars of sun, wind, and gravity. Then we bemoan our lack of care through the years and try to minimize the ravages of time already indelibly imprinted on our looks.
<p>By all means, stick to your rapid daily routine. Sure, you could get up earlier in the morning and have time for more self-care but you’re already, like most working-age Americans, sleep-deprived.
<p>One solution is to identify one period a week when you can steal a couple of hours for yourself. Women, especially, shortchange themselves, too busy taking care of everyone else and ignoring themselves. Stake out your claim to that two hour window as if your life depended on it. Use it only for you. Use it to take deep treatments for your face or your hair. Use it to practice relaxation, listen to music, or walk in the rain. Use it to pamper every part of your body and spirit. Use it to think about yourself, and your goals, and your dreams. Use it to appreciate yourself and the good things life has brought you. Use it to lay plans for future self-development and use it to become your own best friend and confidant.
<p>Our lives are so filled up with what we have to do that our wants and internal needs are often unmet. In even the busiest and most demanding schedule, there are moments we can carve out for ourselves, but only if we absolutely insist on it. Right now is the time to become assertive about your own self. You too deserve a brief moment in the sun.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/08/image.png"><img style="margin: 5px" height="203" alt="image" src="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/08/image-thumb.png" width="200" align="left" border="0"></a> If you are looking for a way to lose belly fat, I would like to share with you a secret that nobody is really talking about. If you’re looking to the diet industry to lose weight, you’re not looking in the right direction. The people that are selling the weight-loss products, including the food supplements and the dieting information products are not out there to help you. They want to keep you as a customer for life, so they are not telling you the truth.
<p>If you want to lose weight and keep it off for the long term, you need to make sure that you are doing something that more than likely, you are missing out on. The one thing that you can possibly do which will help more than any other to shed the pounds that you are holding is to build up the muscles in your body. This is done through a series of weight training but probably not the same way that you are used to hearing about.
<p>Something that many people don’t know is that the more Muslims you have, the higher your metabolism is going to run. This will help you to burn calories effortlessly and continue to burn them for the long term. Most people tend to work on their upper body whenever they are trying to build muscle but it is much easier for you to build the muscle on the lower half of your body. If you concentrate on your legs whenever you’re lifting weights, you will achieve more in less time and with far less effort. How is this done?
<p>Most of us don’t have the time to live at the gym and to spend all of our time there, sweating it out and working for hours at a time. You might be surprised to figure out that if you do things properly, it is not necessary for you to spend all of that time at the gym and you can accomplish more in much less time. I’m talking about working out with high-intensity interval training, and it does not involve doing sets until you drop or sweating it out on a daily basis.
<p>In fact, it really takes less than a half hour of your time at the gym maybe one or two times a week in order to accomplish this properly. You would be targeting the larger muscles of your body, the legs, but you would also want to make sure that you are doing a couple of exercises which target the upper body as well. Since you will only be doing about six or eight different exercises, you must do them properly in order to see the maximum benefit. You would want to make sure that you are going eight to 12 repetitions for each exercise and do them to absolute failure.
<p>Believe it or not, it is not the time that you spend at the gym which will make the difference in your weight loss. It is the time in between the gym sessions whenever you are resting that your muscles will grow and your metabolism will go through the roof. Each time you go into the jam, which will only be once or twice per week, you will notice that you are stronger and able to handle the weight easier. This is the best way to put muscle onto your body and you will find that you are losing weight quickly.</p>

Saakshi of &#8220;Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki&#8221; fame supported FMCG company Godrej Sara Lee Hit&#8217;s anti-malaria campaign and briefed Delhiites on the causes and effects of the disease that spreads with a single mosquito bite.
<p>She said it is important to kill mosquitoes and not just repel them as a measure against the disease. &#8220;During the monsoon especially, one needs to be extra careful as diseases spread very easily. &#8220;This is an important and strong initiative against malaria and I am proud to be associated with it,&#8221; she said. Saakshi also said that nearly 40 percent of the world&#8217;s population is at risk of contracting malaria in over 100 countries. The actress was last seen in the film &#8220;Coffee House&#8221;.</p>

In all, 21 per cent of women have experienced sexual and physical violence including 22 per cent of married women. The survey conducted among women aged 15 – 49 also shows that the violence is less than the national average. It further points out that 14 per cent of married women have been slapped by their husbands while six to eight per cent report of having their arms twisted or hair pulled; being pushed, shaken, or having something thrown at them; being kicked, dragged, or beaten up or being punched.
<p>Five per cent report that their husbands have physically forced them to have sex against their will and two per cent report that they have been forced by their husband to perform sexual acts that they did not want to perform. Only four per cent of women have ever initiated any violence against their husband, revealed the survey. The Chairperson of Sikkim State Women Commission Subadra Rai said in most cases, the domestic violence is never reported to the Commission. The Commission is pro-actively working towards bringing awareness on educating women especially in rural areas, she said. It may also be added here that despite the relatively low prevalence of spousal physical or sexual violence among all married women aged 15-49, the prevalence among some groups of women is still quite high.
<p>The latest released report further says that women whose husbands consume alcohol and get drunk often are much more likely to experience violence than women whose husbands do not consume any alcohol or get drunk less frequently. The data also highlight contextual and inter-generational aspects of spousal violence: women whose mothers were beaten by their fathers are much more likely to have experienced violence than women whose mothers were not beaten by their fathers. More than one-fifth (22 per cent) of women who have experienced spousal physical or sexual violence have suffered injuries as a result of the violence. For a majority of women who have ever experienced spousal violence, the violence first occurred within the first three years of their marriage. Only 32 per cent of women who have ever experienced violence have sought help to end the violence.
<p>Almost three out of five women have neither sought help nor told anyone about the violence. Abused women most often seek help from their own families and from friends. Very few women seek help from any institutional source, such as the police (five per cent) or a social service organisation (two per cent), the report says. Reacting to the survey, Dr Doma Tshering Bhutia, the Legal Consultant of Human Rights Law Network of Sikkim opined that the laws for protection of women from domestic violence have not been fully exercised in Sikkim. She added that the protection officers deputed under the State Social Welfare department have not been fully operational. Stating that the law on women rights which was framed in the year 2005 is yet to be fully functional in Sikkim, Dr Bhutia also informed that her office has been flooded with the cases related to domestic violence which includes bigamy cases.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>British actress Joanna Lumley, who is in Nepal on a five day visit after spearheading a high profile campaign to allow Gurkha soldiers and their families to settle in Britain, met President Rambaram Yadav, Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal and Foreign Minister Sujata Koirala separately.
<p>Accompanying her to the meetings held at the Singh Durbar, the seat of the government, was a 30-member delegation, including Liberal Democratic Party leader Peter Carol, Folkestone town counselor Dhana Gurung, Maiti-Nepal president Anuradha Koirala and several foreign journalists.
<p>According to Nepalnews, Koirala thanked Lumley for actively campaigning on behalf of the Gurkha veterans for their right to settle in UK since 2007. Gurkha veterans went on to win the immigration test case at London’s High Court in 2008. Lumley is scheduled to visit Jhapa and Dharan to meet Gurkhas later today.
<p>The group will visit Pokhara on Wednesday to meet members of the charity-the Gurkha Welfare Trust and will stay in the city on Thursday to meet Gurkha widows and address a meeting at the city hall. On Friday, Lumley will visit Lumbini, the birthplace of Buddha, before flying back to Kathmandu to visit homeless children and orphans at the Maiti Nepal project. The group is due to fly back to the UK on August 1. The actress has already said that she felt “humbled” to be travelling to Nepal.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/07/image280.png"><img height="130" alt="image" src="http://news.maxabout.net/files/2009/07/image-thumb26.png" width="200" align="right" border="0"></a> If you are battling with excess weight, than you probably know that losing the pounds can be both difficult and frustrating. However, there are five secrets that many people never know that can make weight loss a lot easier. Losing weight will never be easy, but if you work hard at it, you can reach your target weight over the next few years.
<p>The first secret to weight loss is to talk to your doctor. This might not be a secret per se, but it is something that most people overlook. When you talk to your doctor he or she may be able to look at you health history and determine exactly what is causing your problem. In some causes, your medical condition goes beyond healthy eating and exercising. When you talk to your doctor, you can easily get to the bottom of the problem and learn helpful tips to losing weight.
<p>Another great secret to weight loss is to improve your posture. Ok, this may not be exactly a way to lose weight, but it certainly will make you look thinner! Good posture, whether you are standing or sitting, will add and immediately slim your body. In many cases, we stand up straight in dressing rooms when trying on clothing, but if you truly want to look like you’ve lost weight, good posture is crucial at all times. This can also help with the weight loss process itself because good posture when you perform exercises will lead to more effective workouts.
<p>The third secret to weight loss is to get your whole family involved. It can be very tempting to ditch the salad had have a hamburger with your husband or a taco with your wife, but if the entire family is eating healthy foods, weight loss won’t seem so depressing. Keep the junk food out of the house completely, and everyone will be healthier.
<p>Lastly, one of the biggest secrets to weight loss is to think about your weight in terms of everyday life. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Park in the last parking spot at the mall or at work and walk to the front door. Cut out coffee and replace it with tea in the morning. Go outside to play with your children instead of staying indoors. Go out dancing instead of seeing a movie. These little things may not make a big impact on your life in general, but if you do them regularly, the burnt calories will add up and you’ll start to see real results.</p>
