Karachi under attack


8 killed, over 50 vehicles torched in Karachi violence after killing of MQM workers. A wave of terrorism has engulfed Karachi once again and various people have become the victims of this terrorism who were either killed or injured severely indiscriminately whereas many buses were torched and public properties were damaged or destroyed hugely in a few hours. The terrorism not only harmed to Karachi financially but also all social activities were paralysed due to which people faced difficulties to buy edibles as the shops were closed owing to the terrorism. All this happened because the police, rangers and other law enforcement agencies did not take any steps to stem the terrorists who were openly killing innocent people and burning buses and other public properties whereas the government’s quietness on the fresh acts of terrorism in Karachi is a question mark! It is elusive why everyone harms Karachi and why is the Karachi handed over to the terrorists who do what they want willingly! The authorities concerned should immediately take serious steps to cope with the increasing terror activities in Karachi and saving the lives and properties of innocent people, ensuring the positive working or business environment so that Pakistan can be consolidated economically. Also the terrorists be dealt with strictly in order to restrain from any future terror activities and every criminal either belonging to any political parties or not should be accounted for seriously.

Chocolate makes you slim


Those who habitually eat chocolate tends to be thinner: the good news is the University of San Diego, California, and is based on research that has analyzed the eating habits of nearly one thousand U.S.: who followed the diet, how many calories they ate and Their body mass index.

According to the study, published in the Archives of Internal Medicine , those who eat chocolate several times a week on average thinner than those who eat it rarely. Chocolate is a food very caloric but contains ingredients that may help you lose weight, according to the authors and the correlation remains valid even if other factors are included in the overall evaluation, as the amount of exercise. The important thing also is not the amount of chocolate ingested but the regularity of consumption.

According to the scientist who led the study , Dr. Beatrice Golomb, quoted by the BBC website, there is a chance in a hundred that these results depend on chance. For  Dr. Golomb, “the results suggest that the impact on the final weight is determined not only by quantity but the type of calories consumed.” Already several other studies suggest that chocolate has beneficial effects on the heart, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, especially the dark chocolate contains antioxidants which may serve to inhibit the effect of free radicals, chemicals that can damage cells uncertain .

According to the study of catechins (a group of antioxidants belonging to the category of flavonoids) may improve muscle mass and reduce weight. This would be verified by experiments on animals: rats fed for 15 days with epicatechin (present in dark chocolate) improve muscle tone. For researchers in San Diego must now step up to a phase of clinical trials on humans to confirm all data collected.

In the absence of evidence , not thrown on the chocolate: if you want to change its diet, the experts continue to recommend … First fruits and vegetables.
