FIVE WAYS TO LIVE A LONG LIFE.


  1. Toast Your Bread Lightly: Chemical changes occur when toasting, baking and frying foods like chips, crisps and toasts, which result in the formation of acrylamide, which has been linked to caner.
  2. Season With Rosemary: The humble herb could be the secret to living to 100, according to researchers. In the research, when rosemary was commonly used in cooking by a group of pensioners, they had a remarkable record of not just living longer but being free of heart diseases.
  3. Make Short Journeys By Foot: In a study of over 3,30,000 people, it was found that lack of exercise killed twice as many people as obesity. Adding thirty minutes of walking into your daily routine, five days a week is the equivalent of 14 marathons in one year. This extra exercise can add three and a half years to your lifespan.
  4. Add Spinach To Salads and Sandwiches: Eating spinach every day can make your brain eleven years younger. Pensioners who tucked into it along with other leafy greens, stayed sharper for longer, say researchers. 
  5. See Your Dentist Regularly: Gooddental care not only prevents tooth decay but gum disease too. Gum disease is linked to a whole host of health conditions, including heart disease, diabetes and strokes, and early and low birth-weight babies. This is because gum disease increases bacteria in the mouth, which is then transported to the rest of the body.

VIEWS OF MANU AND KAUTILYA ON THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE.

The state performed its duty of protection of society and the individual through coercive enforcement of the standards of justice based on the concept of ' Dharma '. From the Vedic period onward, the perennial attitude of Indian culture had been justice and righteousness. Justice, in the Indian context, was a human expression of a wider universal principle of nature and if men were entirely true to nature, their actions would be spontaneously just. Men experienced Justice, in the sense of a distributive equity, as moral justice, social justice, and legal justice. Each of these forms of justice was viewed as a particularisation of the general principle of the universe seen as a total organism. Impartial administration of justice was always regarded as one of the main duties of the King and he was considered to be the fountain of justice. The ethical code of society and its cultural standards were inter-related. The cultural maturity and social amicability and even their det...

The discovery was made in the Nile valley province of Minya south of Cairo, in an area known as al-kamin al-Sahrawi. The unearthed sarcophagi and clay fragments suggest that the area was a large necropolis from sometime between the 27th Dynasty and the Greco-Roman period. ----------------------------------------------------------------

ANCIENT INDIA'S LINKS TO TODAY.

You may not have heard of Shu-ilishu but he is a man of great significance. He reaches out to us from almost 4,300 years ago, through a small Akkadian cylinder seal now housed at the Louvre Museum in Paris. On the seal, you will find an image of him talking to two men. The inscription describes Shu-ilishu as the interpreter of the Meluhhan language. 'Meluha' was, in all probability, the term used by ancient Mesopotamians for the Indus Valley region, and the presence of an oficial 'interpreter' there indicates just how important the steady flow of good from the Indian sub-continent was.  Precious and vibrant lapis lazuli stones, carnelian beads, wood and even dogs would go across via old trade routes and ports like Lothal (in modern-day Gujarat) to Akkad, capital of the Akkadian Empire (03rd millennium BCE) and now in modern-day Iraq. There are also references to a settlement of Meluhhans in the city of Guabba in Sumer, in Mesopotamia.  The story of Shi-ilishu and ...
