How having flax seeds can remove the blockages in the arteries of the heart has been beautifully explained in this video. Do see it to believe it. Flax (Linum usitatissimum), also known as common flax or linseed, is a member of the genus Linum in the family Linaceae. It is a food and fiber crop cultivated in cooler regions of the world. Textiles made from flax are known in the Western countries as linen, and traditionally used for bed sheets, underclothes, and table linen. Its oil is known as linseed oil. In addition to referring to the plant itself, the word "flax" may refer to the unspun fibers of the flax plant. The plant species is known only as a cultivated plant,[2] and appears to have been domesticated just once from the wild species Linum bienne, called pale flax.

Priyanka Chopra retains right to speak in personal capacity: UN Unicef Goodwill Ambassador Priyanka Chopra, who has been under intense criticism for a tweet cheering the Indian armed forces, retains the right to speak in her personal capacity on issues concerning her, according to a UN spokesperson. When Unicef Goodwill Ambassadors "speak in their personal capacity, they retain the right to speak about issues that interest or concern them," Stephane Dujarric, the spokesperson for Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, said at his daily briefing on Thursday in answer to a question about Chopra. "Their personal views or actions do not necessarily reflect those of Unicef," he added. But, he said: "When they speak on behalf of the Unicef, we expect them to adhere to Unicef's evidence-based impartial positions." About their role, he said: "The Unicef Goodwill Ambassadors are prominent individuals who have agreed to generously volunteer their time and thei...

On average, does bathing in shower take more water than bathing with a bucket or less? Before starting any argument, let me confess that I use a shower daily, not because I like it, but because I have no luxury of using a bucket (In the west, you would find a lot of wastage of resources and energy). But somehow, there are a lot of people who are convinced that a shower wastes less water than a bucket bath. I do not think so. India has been facing water shortage since times unknown and we have come to a conclusion that using a bucket is the best way out. I support this 'tradition.' By the way,  California too has just realised it . Maybe in few years time, we would be seeing buckets in every bathroom in California atleast. One  Quora explanation  tells us to plug the water in the bath tub, take a shower and compare the water levels with the volume of a bucket. It is absolutely nonsense. Probably the writer got confused between a bucket and the bath tub (I am scared of the wastag...

If the outlook is so rosy, why is Ambani hitting the brakes on a seven-year, $100 billion investment spree? by Andy Mukherjee Does  Mukesh Ambani  see dark clouds gathering on the horizon? From his message to shareholders, it doesn't look like India's richest tycoon is worried. But his actions may reveal more than his words. At Monday's annual general meeting, the chairman of  Reliance Industries  Ltd. was brimming with optimism. Not only did he endorse Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of bumping up annual GDP by 80% in five years to $5 trillion, he even forecast a $10 trillion Indian economy by 2030. It's not only possible but "inevitable," he said. Something doesn't add up. If the outlook is so rosy, why is Ambani hitting the brakes on a seven-year, $100 billion investment spree across refining, petrochemicals, telecom and retail? While a breather after such frenzied activity may be understandable, why does he want Reliance to be a zero-net-debt...
