A r e k e r e : A r e k e r e N e i g h b o u r h o o d Improvement Trust (ANIT) a n d O n e B e n g a l u r u organized a meeting of lake teams on 5th Aug 2012. Representatives from 20 d i f f e re n t l a ke t e a m s participated in the meeting.

Dr Ashwin Mahesh talked about how each s m a l l a c t i v i t y o f documenting lake info by public can help in evolving a solution and build the infrastructure and setup required to solve the problem. Dr Ravi Ralph talked about the various chal lenges faced by different lakes in the city.

He highlighted the heavy contamination of lakes that cannot support even aquatic life.

Lake Teams Get Along

How many Americans really die of the flu each year? The report comes from the Research and Scientific Affairs Epidemiology and Statistics Unit. Get ready for some surprises, especially since the US Centers for Disease Control keeps trumpeting flu-death annual numbers as 36,000. Recently, Tommy Thompson, head of US Health and Human Services, stated that 91 per cent of the people who die from the flu in the US every year are 65 and older. So you might engage in a little arithmetic and figure out how many people under 65 are really dying from the flu each year. But no matter. The raw all ages stats are low enough. Quite low enough. Do you see what is going on here?

A man shouts, "Where is my flu shot? We're all going to die!" Meanwhile, on Capitol Hill, Congress is planning a measure that will guarantee vaccine manufacturers annual biillion

payoffs, no matter how many doses are left over unused.

Jon Rapport, a senior investigative reporter has long warned about the dangers of vaccines, especially for babies and young children, whose immune system are not capable of coping with the many c o n t a m i n a n t s a n d t o x i c preservatives in vaccines. There are other reasons why even adults should avoid them. Now, for the first time, a former insider from within the vaccine industry has agreed to talk about the dangers of vaccines.

"Dr. Mark Randall" is the pseudonym of a former vaccine researcher who worked for many years in the laboratories of major pharmaceutical houses and the US government's Nat ional Institutes of Health. He is now retired and has reluctantly agreed to speak out. In his opinion, his testimony matches all the other claims that I he has studied in past years.

Jon Rapport's interview with Dr. Randall's intimate knowledge of vaccine dangers is important for his testimony about the inside workings and cover-ups between government and the vaccine industry - the two sources that keep trying to assure Americans that they can be trusted. For a question, Why are we quoted statistics which seem to prove that vaccines have been tremendously successful at wiping out diseases?, Dr. Randal answers, "To give the illusion that these vaccines are useful. If a vaccine suppresses visible symptoms of a disease like measles, everyone assumes that the vaccine is a success. But, under the surface, the vaccine can harm the immune system itself. And if it causes other diseases - say, meningitis - that fact is masked, because no one believes that the vaccine can do that . The connection is overlooked.

Bangalore: Nearly 55 per cent of young workforce engaged in India's IT and ITES sector are stricken with lifestyle disorders due to unhealthy eat ing hab i t s , hect i c work schedules, tight deadlines, irregular and associated stress, according to a survey by apex industry body ASSOCHAM. The Assoc iated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM) interacted with about 3,000 employees in the age group of 22 to 30 year representing various business process outsourcing (BPO) companies, IT/ITES in the domains of pharma, manufacturing, energy and infrastructure sectors. The survey was carried out at Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Gurgaon, Noida and Pune between August and October last year to ascertain the extent of junk food addiction among BPO techies in Indian economy's sunshine industry. About 2,000 young men and 1000 women were interviewed by ASSOCHAM Social Development Foundation (ASDF).

Over half of respondents said tha t due to 24x7 work ing environment and irregular food timings they directly place orders to fast food outlets, street food vendors and roadside eateries operating outside their offices serving ready to eat high calorie processed food items like noodles, burgers, pizza, etc.

“Frequent snack breaks during office hours together with rampant consumption of greasy, spicy food is leading to health p r o b l e m s l i k e d i a b e t e s , hypertension, depression, anxiety and cardiovascular diseases.” reveals the study.

“Excessive intake of junk

food, lack of physical exercise, long working hours, lack of sleep together with unbound mental fatigue is telling on the health of BPO and IT professionals in the city.” said Mr D.S. Rawat, national secretary general of ASSOCHAM while releasing the findings of the survey.

Nearly 1,600 respondents said that they have relocated to these cities for professional reasons and live independently along with their colleagues/peers at a rented accommodation due to which they tend to eat more of junk food stuff sold at office cafeteria and across local markets near their offices. About 35 per cent of the total respondents who eat junk food said that they visit doctors at least twice a month with complaints of physical ailments. Many of these said that hectic lifestyles, stress, excessive caffeine and smoking is leading to c a r d i o v a s c u l a r p r o b l e m s appearing early as their work involves heavy calling which keeps them sticked to their work stations for seven to eight hours with a single break of a few minutes.

Almost 45 per cent of respondents across these cities said that they do not exercise at all. Whereas 30 per cent said that they exercise at least 4 days a week, While remaining 25 per cent said they follow a strict diet and exercise regime.

“There is a grave need for companies to be vigilant about the issues concerning employees' health as they are the ones responsible for an organisation's sound financial health,” said Mr Rawat.

BEML Layout: Shirley Mathew is an abstract artist who has acquired her skills from Escola LLotja, Barcelona where Picasso studied in his early stages. She strives to fulfill what Pablo Picasso once said, “A painter takes the sun and makes it into a yellow spot. An artist takes a yellow spot and makes it into the sun.”

She has come up with her latest Hampi Series to enthrall art lovers. Her painting will have an earnest appeal among 45 other Indian artists in Galerry Sara Arakkal

th9 Annual Show 2012 that begins on August 25, 2012.

“Gallery Sara Arakkal is heading for a great landmark with its year in year out annual art shows creating opportunity for senior as well as emerging artists to display their talents.” says the Syrian Christian artist

who had the thriving to break into the world of art in her early stages.

She was taken by the mystery of Hampi on her first visit to the historical place.

Hampi is located on the south bank somewhere i n t h e m i d d l e o f Tungabhadra river's path. In this area the river takes a number of twists are turns owing to the rocky terrain. The river has immense significance in forming the political & religious history of Hampi.

The river along with the boulder-strewn hills formed the northern barrier of the capital. It was not easy for an invading army cross the river without the fate of a sure defeat.

The river and the ruins of Hampi remained as her treasure house that has finally taken a creative form in her artistic blend. She also reveals an interesting fact that children are prone to love art if they are rightly exposed to art galleries.

“My paintings mean a great deal to me, Nature and her kaleidoscopic world of colors inspires my work.” says the abstract artist who is looking forward to a successful sale of her

thpaintings in the 9 Annual Show.
