Milk in Nepal and India: the difference!

-
Image
 I have observed that whenever milk ferments when I am in India, the paneer or cottage cheese does not come out easily. Even if I boil it and add lime juice to it, the cheese formed is quite little and more powdery than cheesy.  But when the same happens in Nepal, the cheese formation is immediate, dense and cheesy. I do not have to do more efforts to get cottage cheese out of the milk in Nepal. What is the reason? I checked internet and found some factors that can affect the quality and amount of cheese  1. Freedom from pathogenic bacteria - Good cheese forms of milk is free from pathogenic bacteria. Differences between Nepali vs Indian panipuri  2. Different milk quality with different amounts of fats and proteins  3. Ultra-pasteurization can destroy vital enzymes and bacteria that are required for cheese formation  4. If temperature of milk is less when it ferments, cheese formation will be less.  5. If milk is rancid, it means it's fats are also br...

-

 What is wrong with the supermodel Katie Price! She has not had enough negative publicity that now again she is going for another one. This time around, she is selling earwax candles and posted a video of it on her social media. Last year, she was selling her undies for quick cash. 

Katie Price and the sale of ear candling devices

The former supermodel, Katie Price, 42 seems to be really in deep financial crisis. She has been trying to make some quick bucks selling some really odd things. Last year, she was selling undies to make money and this year, Katie is seen selling ear candling device. She has posted a video of her selling the weird items on her social media.

She uploaded a video on her Instagram and in it she is seen getting shocked as she removes a big chunk of wax from her ear. She says in the posted video: 

"Hey guys, so I've got something to show you that is so unique. It is an ears cleaner ear candle, you wait till you see this, it really does work."

Katie then goes on to explain: 

"So ear candling is an ancient medical practice and they believe it helps with your health and well-being." 

In the video, one can see her current boyfriend Carl light one end of the candle while she has placed the other end in her one ear. After some time, Katie puts off the candle and shows a huge piece of earwax pulled out of her ear. 

After this demonstration, she also reveals that when you buy one you get the second one free. So it is a Buy 1 Get 1 free offer now.

Criticism of ear candles

The ear candles are not recommended by the ENT doctors. It has been a heavily criticized product and said to be dangerous also. Besides, the American Academy of Audiology has also added that it is not only unsafe but there is no proof of its effectiveness. It does not pull out wax from the ear, as the claims state. 

Also, read why laws should be enacted to monitor celebrity endorsements?

There have been ear injuries and burns reported with these ear candle use in the UK. Reports of eardrum perforations and ear canal blockages have also surfaced. But despite this, Katie has been advertising this dangerous product on her social media.

The bad reputation and red alert on this product by the qualified practitioners did not deter her from advertising and endorsing it. We believe that it is just the money that lured her to endorse such a dangerous product. There are no laws in place to initiate legal action against such irrational advertising by a non-qualified person or celebrity. 

Katie Price and her other weird campaigns

Katie has been doing a lot of ad campaigns lately but these are all of the B-grade products and controversial products. She has put up a host of products on her social media for her fans. In one video she also went naked to talk about bath bombs. 

Besides, The Sun UK has also revealed that the former supermodel is launching her own skincare line called Just Katie. This will have posh organic skincare products. In this new venture, she will be selling $ 99 gift packs containing green mud soap. The packaging is claimed to be eco-friendly.

The ex-glamour model has also made her own website and she is offering her fans and readers a variety of products. The tagline is: 

"Katie treats you beautifully this Xmas."

She claims that her products are kind to the environment and it loves and protects people's skin. She told her fans: 

"My Just Katie range comes will all my love and personal input-a reflection of the woman I am today-the woman I always wanted to be-True beauty comes from within with a little help from goodness on the outside."

“This range is to enhance what we see, to love and protect from the signs or tired, dehydrated, stressed skin that our body goes through from everyday real life.

“Our body’s skin surface and souls wellbeing are to be loved and to be loved in return, give back to yourself and take time out to pause and pamper,

“By being kind to the environment together we can organically help to make this world a better place.”

Morton's toe: Everything you need to know about your longer second toe

 Often, one notices that the second toe of some people is longer than the great toe. People say different things for it. Many of them say that it implies that the owner of such a longer second toe is a dominant, creative, energetic person in real life and very ambitious and peace and happiness-loving. But no one has tried to understand the reason, science, medicine and problems of having such a toe. It is called as Morton’s toe or Greek foot.  What is a Greek foot? Many people in the world have a longer second toe of the foot. Such feature may be on one side or in both the feet. It is called Morton’s toe or Greek foot. The other names for it are Morton’s foot or royal toe. But the reason is not the second toe is longer but the fact is that the first metatarsal below the great toe is shorter. Thus it is not due to the faulty phalanges but due to the difference in height of the metatarsals. Since the second metatarsal is relatively longer than the first metatarsal, the joint at ...

There can be no universal forgiveness! It never exists!

-
Image
Forgiveness or pardon means clearing off the feelings of resentment or revenge towards the offender. In most contexts it implies giving up any expectation of justice. People justify this act of forgiveness from a religious point of view and psychologists justify it as an act that would bring peace to the victim. But my experience tells me that both religion as well as psychologists are absolutely wrong in asking a victim to forgive the evil person. This act is bad from a society point of view and would lead to a rise in crimes and unhappiness. Let me explain in depth with examples. 1. I have a friend in the UK. She is originally from Nigeria. She has two siblings who are married with children and she herself is single and childless. In the year 2009, she had gone to her hometown. There her siblings tortured her physically and mentally and put her under house arrest. They did not want to give her any ancestral property and assets. She managed to free herself with the help of a friend an...

Though society looks down at such couples, the availability of effective and safe contraception and old age support from non-family agencies has made things a bit easier for such decisions to be made.  Reasons for voluntary childlessness 1. Personal reasons such as not wanting responsibilities of a child.  2. The emphasis on career rather than reproduction 3. The lack of desire to forward one's family genes or line due to child abuse.  4. Anguish against existence in general. 5.
