Learning becomes fun when it appeals to the sense.
Helping kids to get into reading habits: My own experiments and experiences,
To encourage good reading habits in children we should serve as good example ourself. If the child finds us reading instead of being glued to television, he may also want to do the same.
Reading and being aware, are two factors which are like master cards that earn you success. Make sure that children observe elders reading regularly, it will reinforce the importance of reading.
Elders in the family should help the kids to feel that reading doesn't only happen at school it can happen anywhere and learners who read outside of school are more successful. Talking about the pictures in books, magazines, and newspapers with your child will attract them. It is important for your child to observe your efforts in acquiring reading abilities. Don't allow your kids to watch television until they have done their daily reading.
As the child becomes a better reader, talk about what he/she is reading. When the child finishes a new story or reading assignment, discuss the main ideas, new words and concepts, and the child's favorite section with them. This will help to strengthen the child's reading and comprehension skills.
Tips for the Kids:
BEFORE you READ Check it out, Think about what you know about the subject and Decide what you need to know.
WHILE you READ ask How does it connects to what you know and Does it make sense, what could you do
AFTER you READ React to what you've read, what you remember and Use what you've read.

The best pain medicine can be a good listening ears.
To manage pain effectively know about it and how it could be treated effectively.
 Pain knows no boundaries and it is nature's mechanisim. It may be throbbing, lingering, nagging, and hampering our day-to-day activities. It interferes with our movements, work and affects sleep, our social, and emotional makeups. Pain are life events caused due to psychological stresses like occupational,financial,domestic, maritial or sexual strains. It has become a major quality of life issues. Nature pushes this stress to form pain. It starts off as a simple pain but soon aggravates. Lack of sleep, excess sleep, hot sun, stress, fasting or hormone imbalance also cause pain.
Pain could be acute or chronic.Acute Pain arouse due to cuts, broken bone and in this Nociceptive pain information is passed on to the brain and one becomes aware of the pain. Pain persist untill the hurt is visible. Injury is healed, the stimulus is removed and pain goes away. But in Neuropathic pain, it is due to the internal derangement of the nervous system. Even after the injury is healed the pain continues. Chronic Pain are backpain, neckpain, headaches, muscle spasm and oveuse strain. Of all pain, pain due to spinal injuries are most painful and difficult. Most common pain and spinal problems like disc prolepsis, lower backpain, and frozen shoulders are caused by bad sitting postures, faulty diets,and sedentary lifestyle. Women have higher incidence of back pain. House  work, pregnancy, nursing, and postures that strains spine due to the nature of chores they do aggravates pain. Neck pain among older people is a natural consequenses of ageing. Bones progressively degenerate with age. Pain is often a great companion of many sports persons and Ergonomic pain are common in the IT sector. Pain due to the injury to the nerve and if severe needs surgical interventions. The quality of pain, duration,and social cause should be considered before treating pain. Our body produces its own painkiller called endorphins. Eventhough medication brings positive results, they cause side effects in long run. Lot of water intak e and warm water bath with hot compresses will generally help.Condition your body well and the pain you suffer will vanish quickly. Mild pain is treated with nonsteroidal or acetaminophen drugs, and moderate to severe pain is treated with narcotics like oral morphine.

IPL: What it has done to Cricket.
"I'm glad I played most of my cricket before T20 came along. I'm not sure what relevance Tests will have in the future."—A current senior Indian player who's a Test cricket loyalist.
Sport like any other medium has to keep reinventing itself once in a while. The lure of money is irresistible.
What are the immediate repercussions now that we have seen a few matches:
1) We have points for upholding the spirit of the game; not the “Royal Challenge Spirit” that Mallya was upholding during the inaugural game.
2) Please understand that the Bangalore team’s name, whose owner is selling spirits , does not amount to surrogate advertisement for alcohol. You cannot ask Anbumani Ramdass for his views on this.
3) The said spirit will be upheld (Held Hostage?) by men like Ponting, Symonds, Harbhajan, Ganguly, Warne and they will be awarded for doing so!
4) Every event like a boundary, sixer, wicket fall will have scantily clad girls cheering with some gusto. We will find it impossible to fathom if the spectator is cheering the cricket event or the cheering girls or both.
5) Australian players, who used to complain plaintively against excessive cricket, are fighting their own board to play in the IPL. A survey by the Australian Cricketers' Association showed that almost half the players contracted with Cricket Australia and the six states would consider early retirement to play T20 cricket in India.
6) The Englishmen too are clamouring for the rupee.
7) In New Zealand, where cricket doesn't pay much, it's as if some famished tramps had walked into a feast of kings. Ex-Kiwi captain Stephen Fleming said, "I saw the amounts of money being thrown around and I thought: wow, I hope they keep trading! It was incredible to be involved in it."
8) A year before the Mumbai auction, BCCI president Sharad Pawar had said: "India does not support a T20 world tournament. We feel it dilutes the importance of international cricket." Viola IPL was born.
9) If you are confused if you should applaud Murali if he takes Tendulkar’s wicket the fault is entirely with you for your inability to appreciate good cricket.
10) Is it still a mystery to you why T20 is still played with Cricket bats and balls and such paraphernalia normally attached to the game? Please innovate and send it to BCCI. Please do not forget to patent it though!

Desserts, toothsome and tasty
Cut 2 bananas into small round pieces. Heat up a Tawa and grease it with some butter. Arrange the banana pieces in hot tawa allowing equal distance between them. Allow it to fry in slow flame. Turn both sides. Sprinkle some sugar on the roasted bananas and allow it to form a caramel coating. Remove it from fire and sprinkle a pinch of cardomom powder and cinnamon powder. Care should be taken to roast the bananas as it will burn if the flame is high. If you dont like sugar caramel just roast the bananas and remove it from fire. Add a teaspoon of honey over it with cardomom and cinnamon powder.
This tastes as good as pazham pori. But with no oil. For the pazham pori recipe click here. |
