revenues escalated by 16000 times after the BJP came to pow-er The report also questioned al-legedly unsecured loans given to Jay Shahrsquos fi rms including from a state-run fi rm that reports to the Power Ministry
The report published in thewirein said Shahrsquos company Temple Enterprises Pvt Lim-ited was ldquoengaged in negligible activityrdquo in the fi nancial years ending March 2013 and 2014 but ldquojumped to a turnover ofRs 805 crore in 2015-16rdquo
Jay Shah issued a statement saying the article ldquomakes false derogatory and defamatory im-putation against me by creating in the minds of right thinking people an impression that my business owes its lsquosuccessrsquo to my father Sri Amit Bhai Shahrsquospolitical positionrdquo
ldquoMy businesses are fully le-gitimate and conducted in a law-ful manner on commercial lines
which is refl ected in my tax re-cords and are through banking transactionsrdquo Jay said in his statement which added that he would press criminal and civil defamation charges against the website
The report triggered demands from rival political parties in-cluding the Congress the Left and the Aam Aadmi Party for an investigation into the mat-ter CPM general secretary Si-taram Yechury claimed that it was the latest in a series of cases of corruption under the Modigovernment
According to the Congress Party the allegations are an ldquoexcellent examplerdquo of cronycapitalism
ldquoWe fi nally found the only benefi ciary of Demonetisation Itrsquos not the RBI the poor or the farmers Itrsquos the Shah-in-Shah of Demo Jai Amitrdquo Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi tweeted
ldquoPlease understand this is not corruption Many allegations of corruption were made against the Congress Did it ever fi le a civil suit or defamation suit No Why they lacked such courage Today Jay has fi led a defamation as well as civil suit and is de-manding a probe himselfrdquo Amit Shah stressed responding toquestions
On Thursday the BJPrsquos ideo-logical mentor Rashtriya Sway-amsevak Sangh (RSS) said there must be enough evidence for the allegations to be worthinvestigating
From the Congress side for-mer HRD and law minister Kapil Sibal demanded that Prime Min-ister Narendra Modi institute an inquiry into the allegations
ldquoToday we want to ask our Prime Minister what you now think about crony capital-ism Will you direct the CBI to proberdquo Sibal said

NEW DELHI - Prime Minis-ter Narendra Modirsquos vision of a ldquoNew Indiardquo - which promises housing electricity healthcare and education for all - cannot be realized unless the issue of sexual violence against children is ad-dressed Indiarsquos president said on Monday
President Ram Nath Kovind made the remarks at an event marking the end of month-long
march across India by campaign-ers led by Nobel laureate Kailash Satyarthi to raise public aware-ness about the trafficking and sexual abuse of children
ldquoThe Prime Minister talks about a lsquoNew Indiarsquo referring to improved infrastructure in the country The concept is goodrdquo said Kovind referring to Modirsquos pledge in August to make a bet-ter country for all by its 75th Independence Day in 2022
ldquoBut even if all that is
achieved if the issue of child sexual abuse - and the other sensitive crimes against children - are not addressed I think that we miss making this concept pos-sible when we celebrate 75 years of freedomrdquo
Kovind - a veteran politi-cian and member of a power-ful Hindu nationalist movement - was sworn in as president in July While Indiarsquos president is the highest public office in the worldrsquos largest democracy it is largely a ceremonial role with the prime minister and his cabinet holding executive power
Children in India face threats ranging from trafficking sex-ual violence forced labor and early marriage to a lack of ac-cess to quality education and healthcare say activists
More than 9000 children were reported to have been traf-ficked in 2016 a 27 percent rise from the previous year according to government data
Most are from poor rural fami-lies who are lured to cities by traf-fickers who promise good jobs but then sell them into slavery as domestic workers to work in small manufacturing units farm-ing or pushed into sexual slavery
in brothelsFigures from the National
Crime Records Bureau also show that almost 15000 children were victims of sexual violence such as rape molestation and exploitation for pornography in 2015 - up 67 percent from the previous year
But the figures are underesti-mates in socially conservative India say activists where fear of being blamed and shamed means victims often keep quiet and do not report abuses
POLITICIANSBOLLYWOOD STARS
Child rights activist Saty-arthi whose charity Bachpan Bachao Andolan (Save the Childhood Movement) has res-cued over 80000 enslaved chil-dren launched his India-wide march or ldquoBharat Yatrardquo from the nationrsquos southern-most tip on Sept 11
Over the last five weeks par-ticipants traveled over 11000 km (7000) miles) across 22 of In-diarsquos 29 states They held events in towns and villages engaging politicians judges students re-ligious leaders and community members
Over 60 million people across India took part - either by attend-
ing events such as plays and con-certs or by voicing their support on social media over the last 35 days say organizers
The ldquoBharat Yatrardquo also mo-bilized government officials and policy makers as well as Bollywood stars they added
Home Minister Rajnath Singh has promised to pass an anti-trafficking bill which has pending for over a year chief ministers pledged to take steps to curb child abuse and the judiciary promised to set up childrenrsquos courts
The campaign also saw Bol-lywood stars and singers such as Amitabh Bachchan Anupam Kher Dhanush Latha Rajini-kanth and Vivek Oberoi support the campaign and take a pledge to help end the buying sell-ing and sexual exploitation of minors
Satyarthi told the Thomson Reuters Foundation the highlight of the march - which took him to Andhra Pradesh in the south to Jammu and Kashmir in the north - was seeing children speak out
ldquoIn one case a girl who was being raped by her brother-in-law but could not tell anyone as she felt so ashamed came onto the podium at an event and told everyone what happened to her
lsquoNew Indiarsquo vision impossible if child sex crimes not tackled
Participants stand for the national anthem along with Indian President Ram Nath Kovind and Nobel Laureate Kailash Satyarthi at an event in the Presidential Palace in New Delhi on October 16 2017 marking the end of an over one-month long march across India to raise public awareness about child trafficking and sex abuse

LINCOLNWOOD IL - Four people have been arrested for robbing a fa-ther and son at gunpoint last Sunday afternoon outside their home in north suburban Lincolnwood
Sonali Soni helped police catch the four robbers by providing a description of the suspects who held up her father and brother
ldquoI freaked out called the cops and then they got caughtrdquo she said
Police said Sonirsquos 60-year old father and her 27-year old brother were get-ting into their car outside the house on the 6600 block of North Drake when they were confronted by four males one armed with a handgun The robbers de-manded their wallets cell phones and a backpack and the man with the gun also took their car keys and the suspects took their car and fled the scene
The robbers left a knife at the sceneA few minutes later police spotted
the stolen car a block away and took the four men inside into custody The vic-tims identified the men as their robbers Officers also found a gun and additional evidence in a nearby trash can
Two men and a pair of juveniles from Chicago all face felony armed robbery charges Ibrahim Lissa 21 of the 6500 block of North Mozart Street and Ste-phon D Pugh 20 of the 3700 block of
West Wilson Avenue in Chicago are each charged with armed robbery
The two boys accused in the case are not identified because of their age and police said they were turned over to the Cook County Juvenile Detention Center in Chicago
Soni said her father and brother were a bit shaken up but unharmed after the robbery
ldquoIrsquom a little shaken up right nowrdquo she said ldquoIrsquom scared now because now this is just a red flag that something like this could possibly happen againrdquo
An investigation found the group of robbers targeted the first two people they came across and police described the incident as ldquoan isolated crime of opportunityrdquo
Lincolnwood Village President Barry Bass described the incident as ldquodan-gerous and horrificrdquo in a letter to residents
ldquoUnfortunately many of our surround-ing communities are encountering an uptick in this type of activity which has seeped over the borders from Chicago and other areas into Lincolnwoodrdquo
ldquoI was also a victim of an armed assault last February in front of my home ironi-cally within two blocks of this recent in-cident No one should ever have to expe-rience a situation like thisrdquo Bass wrote

Burglar who targeted Hindu temple and churches gets prison time
NEW YORK (AP) - Authorities say a homeless man who told police he was ldquomad at Godrdquo is going to prison for burglarizing four New York City houses of worship
Queens District Attorney Richard A Brown announced on Monday that 24-year-old Joseph Woznik has been sen-tenced to 1-12 to 4-12 years after pleading
guilty to burglary as a hate crime and other charges
The break-ins occurred in March and April at a Hindu temple and three churches
Woznik pried open donation boxes ran-sacked church offices broke windows and pawned a churchrsquos digital camera One church was hit three times
STEVENS POINT WI - A local hotel owner has been charged with causing sub-stantial damage to one of his competitors
Dharmesh Patel 28 of Stevens Point was charged on Oct 5 after police say he cut copper water pipes leading to ice machines inside Country Inn amp Suites on Division St North
According to the complaint Stevens
Point police were called to Country Inn amp Suites at 1225 AM on Sept 30 after employees there suspected pipes on the hotelrsquos second and third floors had been intentionally cut causing water to leak onto the floor
The culprit left the pipe cutter behind according to District Attorney Louis Molepske
ldquoIt was saturated so badly the drywall was crumblingrdquo Molepske said add-ing water had also seeped into an eleva-tor shaft causing in excess of $5000 in damages
Molepske said hotel guests described two men near the ice machines around the time of the vandalism who identified themselves as plumbers One man was described as wearing ldquoblack shoes with a white striperdquo
When police questioned Patel - who was captured on security video at Coun-try Inn amp Suites - they noted he wore the same shoes identified by witnesses and visible in the video The officer stepped out of the room momentarily and upon return noted Patel had changed his shoes
During the course of the investigation police learned Patel had also allegedly at-tempted to hire a homeless man to place bed bugs at another competitor the Dayrsquos Inn in an attempt to shut it down and planned to also cause damage at Cobble-stone Hotel in the Downtown District
Patel previously served jail time for fraud and also has a criminal record of fraud theft and burglary in New Hamp-shire and Illinois Molepske said He is
currently on probation for a prostitution charge out of Marathon Co according to court records
Molepske asked Patel be held on a $2500 cash bond but Fluguar ordered a $10000 signature bond Patel was or-dered to relinquish his passport and avoid contact with Dayrsquos Inn Country Inn amp Suites Cobblestone Hotel and their em-ployees and guests as a condition of bond
CHICAGO - Chicago Ald Ameya Pawar (47th) has dropped out of the governorrsquos race saying he simply doesnrsquot have the mon-ey to compete statewide against wealthy competitors
ldquoWe raised $828000 from 2600 donors But we donrsquot have enough money to meaningfully scale our campaignrdquo Pawar told the Chicago Sun-Times after an-nouncing his decision in an email to supporters
ldquoI had two options Cut staff which is not an option or two take on personal debt and Irsquom not wealthy Irsquom sorry for the people who supported me that I donrsquot have the wealth or connections to keep goingrdquo
Speculation abounds that Pawarrsquos now-defunct populist campaign for governor could be a prelude to a 2019 race for mayor against incumbent Mayor Rahm Emanuel
ldquoPolitics today is very fluid Itrsquos unpredictable You never know hellip Irsquom never gonna say no Therersquos always a chance But I literally just got off the road after 10 months Itrsquos been really hard on all of us It took a lot of sacrifice by my familyrdquo he said
ldquoIrsquom not ruling anything out I just donrsquot want to talk about another office or another race today or any time in the near fu-ture But I can tell you Irsquom not done in politics Irsquom sure that I
Citing lack of money Ald Ameya Pawar drops out governorrsquos racewill run againrdquo
A natural alternative for sup-porters of Pawarrsquos populist cam-paign is progressive State Sen Daniel Biss (D-Evanston) But Pawar said he is not prepared to endorse any of his opponents ldquoat this timerdquo
Pawar knew when he got into the governorrsquos race that he would be up against a lot of money in the Democratic primary billion-aire JB Pritzker and millionaire Chris Kennedy also are seeking the Democratic nomination
But what he didnrsquot know and had to learn the hard way was just how tough it would be to raise enough money to be com-petitive in a statewide campaign In his email Pawar noted that
ldquothe race for Illinois governor will set a record as the costliest race in American history For democracyrsquos sake I hope we see this as a troubling trend My do-nors did the best they could Irsquom the one who came up short but I am not ashamedrdquo
Pawar 37 said he was start-ing a political action committee called One Illinois to organize young people around progressive causes
Young gutsy and smart Pawar knows city issues after two terms on the City Council He led the
drive for tax increment financ-ing reform mandatory sick days and a council budget analyst He even pushed to cut the council in half
Pawar whose parents came from India in the 1970s canrsquot be underestimated He won his first term at age 30 in an upset against a candidate handpicked by retir-ing Ald Eugene Schulter Pawar then won re-election in 2015 with 83 percent of the vote
Last Thursday Pawar said he has no intention of running for a third-term and violating his self-imposed two-term limit

NEW DELHI - An Indian court last Thursday overturned the con-viction of a dentist couple for the murder of their teenage daughter and the family servant for lack of material evidence their lawyer said
Aarushi Talwar was found with
her throat slit at the family home in the Delhi suburb of Noida in 2008 A day later the body of the servant Hemraj was found on the roof of the house
A trial court convicted the girlrsquos parents Rajesh and Nu-pur Talwar after police alleged
Indian court acquits dentist couple of killing daughterRajesh had murdered his daugh-ter and the servant in a rage when he found them in a compromis-ing situation The couple bothdentists were jailed for life
But a high court overruled the decision saying it was not satis-fi ed with the evidence and or-
dered the couple be freed their lawyer Tanveer Ahmed Mir said
ldquoThe court found no forensic or material evidence to prove that the Talwars had killed their daughterrdquo Mir told reporters out-side a packed courtroom in the northern city of Allahabad
Both parents had denied the murder and insisted they were victims of botched investiga-tions and unfair media coveragedamaging their defense
Aarushirsquos case was labeled as a kind of crime more often as-sociated with rural conserva-tive parts of India where ldquohonor
killingsrdquo are not uncommonEvery twist in the investigation
was extensively reported by the Indian press turning the Talwars into household names
ldquoFinally my family can lead a dignifi ed life The court has up-held the facts and truthrdquo said Rajesh Talwarrsquos sister Vandana after the decision
In 2015 a journalist who cov-ered the murder wrote a book arguing that the couple were in-nocent The double murder case and faulty probe were used as a theme for a Bollywood movie the same year

Death of 11-year-old in India sparks debate on tying welfare to identity card
MUMBAI - The death of an 11-year-old girl in India who campaigners say died of hunger because her familyrsquos ration card was cancelled has sparked debate about linking welfare to identity cards
Activists say Santoshi Kumari died last month after her family was denied subsidised grain be-cause their biometric identity card known as Aadhaar was not linked to their ration card in government records
ldquoThe girlrsquos family told us they had not eaten for six days when Santoshi diedrdquo said Dheeraj Ku-mar with advocacy group Right to Food Campaign
ldquoThey had complained to the local offi cials about the faulty card several times but no
one had helpedrdquoState offi cials in the northern
Indian state of Jharkhand said the girl died of malaria not starvation and the chief minister has ordered an investigation
ldquoWhile there could be doubts over the cause of death we have to ensure that no ration card is de-leted because of non-availability of Aadhaarrdquo state welfare minis-ter Saryu Roy told reporters ldquoIf someone has done this then it is wrongrdquo
More than 11 billion Indian residents have an Aadhaar card which uses fi ngerprints and irin scans to identify them
Activists say large numbers of the poor have been denied welfare benefi ts because of errors in the system
The government made Aadhaar mandatory for welfare pension and employment schemes this year despite a 2014 Supreme Court rul-ing that it cannot be a requirement for welfare programmes
ldquoThese are poor illiterate people with no knowledge of technol-ogy They are suff ering because someone did not (link) the cardproperlyrdquo said Kumar
Kumar said more than 1 million ration cards had been cancelled in Jharkhand one of Indiarsquos poorest states after a directive in April saying they must be linked toAadhaar cards
Last year funding cuts in wel-fare schemes contributed to the starvation deaths of about 600 children in the western state of Maharashtra activists said

LONDON - About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
The risk of displacement could rise as populations swell and the impacts of climate change be-come more severe said a report issued last Friday by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the Geneva-based Internal Dis-placement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)
Earthquakes tsunamis floods and tropical cyclones are the main disasters forecast to uproot large numbers of people with
countries in Asia home to 60 per-cent of the worldrsquos population hit particularly hard according to modeling by the agencies
Eight of the ten countries with the highest levels of displace-ment and housing loss are in South and Southeast Asia
They include India where an average of 23 million people are forced to leave their homes an-nually and China with 13 mil-lion people uprooted each year found the report released on the International Day for Disaster Reduction
The numbers exclude those evacuated ahead of a threat and people displaced by drought or rising seas
Russia and the United States
also feature as countries where disasters could cause large-scale homelessness unless significant progress is made on managing disaster risk the study said
ldquoThe findings underline the challenge we have to reduce the numbers of people affected by di-sastersrdquo said Robert Glasser the UN secretary-generalrsquos special representative for disaster risk
reductionldquoApart from death or severe
injury in a disaster event there is no more crushing blow than the loss of the family homerdquo he added in a statement
The most devastating floods to hit South Asia in a decade killed more than 1400 people this year and focused attention on poor planning for disasters as authori-
ties struggled to assist millions of destitute survivors
Refugees and people uprooted in their own countries are al-ready at record-high numbers said IDMC director Alexan-dra Bilak The new model goes some way toward predicting the risk of disaster-related displace-ment which is an ldquourgent global priorityrdquo she noted
Disasters make 14 million people homeless each year UN
About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
New policy could give Indiarsquos often exploited domestic workers minimum wage and benefits
MUMBAI - Domestic work-ers in India will soon be entitled to a minimum wage and social security benefits according to a draft proposal that activists say does not go far enough to protect these workers and lets employers off the hook
The policy proposes to give domestic workers the right to register themselves as employ-ees guarantees a minimum wage protection from abuse and access to health insurance maternity benefits and pension as well as an opportunity to add skills
The policy will ldquoexplicitly and effectively expand the scope of applicable legislations policies
and schemes to grant domestic workers rights that are enshrined in lawsrdquo a labor ministry state-ment said late on Monday without specifying a timeline
There are at least 67 million domestic workers globally and this number is rising quickly according to the International Labour Organization About 80 percent are women
Indiarsquos rising affluence ur-banization and growing num-bers of working women have spurred increasing demand for domestic workers in the country
Rights activists estimate there are tens of millions of such workers most of them wom-
en who are often underpaid exploited and abused
Many are young largely un-educated women from poor rural areas who live apart from their families
In July a police complaint by a maid saying she was beaten up and locked up by her employers in an upscale neighborhood near New Delhi triggered days of violence
Activists have been cam-paigning for years for the pas-sage of a separate bill to provide domestic workers with a mini-mum monthly salary of 9000 rupees ($140) and benefits in-cluding social security cover and mandatory time off

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta

Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense
The Supreme Court last Wednesday said ldquosexual in-tercourse with a girl below 18 years of age is rape regardless of whether she is married or notrsquorsquo

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Bollywood TriviaWhich actor debuted with a
double role in ldquoKaho Naa Pyaar Hairdquo
Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

By Sudeep Roy MD
A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

NEW DELHI - Prime Minis-ter Narendra Modirsquos vision of a ldquoNew Indiardquo - which promises housing electricity healthcare and education for all - cannot be realized unless the issue of sexual violence against children is ad-dressed Indiarsquos president said on Monday
President Ram Nath Kovind made the remarks at an event marking the end of month-long
march across India by campaign-ers led by Nobel laureate Kailash Satyarthi to raise public aware-ness about the trafficking and sexual abuse of children
ldquoThe Prime Minister talks about a lsquoNew Indiarsquo referring to improved infrastructure in the country The concept is goodrdquo said Kovind referring to Modirsquos pledge in August to make a bet-ter country for all by its 75th Independence Day in 2022
ldquoBut even if all that is
achieved if the issue of child sexual abuse - and the other sensitive crimes against children - are not addressed I think that we miss making this concept pos-sible when we celebrate 75 years of freedomrdquo
Kovind - a veteran politi-cian and member of a power-ful Hindu nationalist movement - was sworn in as president in July While Indiarsquos president is the highest public office in the worldrsquos largest democracy it is largely a ceremonial role with the prime minister and his cabinet holding executive power
Children in India face threats ranging from trafficking sex-ual violence forced labor and early marriage to a lack of ac-cess to quality education and healthcare say activists
More than 9000 children were reported to have been traf-ficked in 2016 a 27 percent rise from the previous year according to government data
Most are from poor rural fami-lies who are lured to cities by traf-fickers who promise good jobs but then sell them into slavery as domestic workers to work in small manufacturing units farm-ing or pushed into sexual slavery
in brothelsFigures from the National
Crime Records Bureau also show that almost 15000 children were victims of sexual violence such as rape molestation and exploitation for pornography in 2015 - up 67 percent from the previous year
But the figures are underesti-mates in socially conservative India say activists where fear of being blamed and shamed means victims often keep quiet and do not report abuses
POLITICIANSBOLLYWOOD STARS
Child rights activist Saty-arthi whose charity Bachpan Bachao Andolan (Save the Childhood Movement) has res-cued over 80000 enslaved chil-dren launched his India-wide march or ldquoBharat Yatrardquo from the nationrsquos southern-most tip on Sept 11
Over the last five weeks par-ticipants traveled over 11000 km (7000) miles) across 22 of In-diarsquos 29 states They held events in towns and villages engaging politicians judges students re-ligious leaders and community members
Over 60 million people across India took part - either by attend-
ing events such as plays and con-certs or by voicing their support on social media over the last 35 days say organizers
The ldquoBharat Yatrardquo also mo-bilized government officials and policy makers as well as Bollywood stars they added
Home Minister Rajnath Singh has promised to pass an anti-trafficking bill which has pending for over a year chief ministers pledged to take steps to curb child abuse and the judiciary promised to set up childrenrsquos courts
The campaign also saw Bol-lywood stars and singers such as Amitabh Bachchan Anupam Kher Dhanush Latha Rajini-kanth and Vivek Oberoi support the campaign and take a pledge to help end the buying sell-ing and sexual exploitation of minors
Satyarthi told the Thomson Reuters Foundation the highlight of the march - which took him to Andhra Pradesh in the south to Jammu and Kashmir in the north - was seeing children speak out
ldquoIn one case a girl who was being raped by her brother-in-law but could not tell anyone as she felt so ashamed came onto the podium at an event and told everyone what happened to her
lsquoNew Indiarsquo vision impossible if child sex crimes not tackled
Participants stand for the national anthem along with Indian President Ram Nath Kovind and Nobel Laureate Kailash Satyarthi at an event in the Presidential Palace in New Delhi on October 16 2017 marking the end of an over one-month long march across India to raise public awareness about child trafficking and sex abuse

LINCOLNWOOD IL - Four people have been arrested for robbing a fa-ther and son at gunpoint last Sunday afternoon outside their home in north suburban Lincolnwood
Sonali Soni helped police catch the four robbers by providing a description of the suspects who held up her father and brother
ldquoI freaked out called the cops and then they got caughtrdquo she said
Police said Sonirsquos 60-year old father and her 27-year old brother were get-ting into their car outside the house on the 6600 block of North Drake when they were confronted by four males one armed with a handgun The robbers de-manded their wallets cell phones and a backpack and the man with the gun also took their car keys and the suspects took their car and fled the scene
The robbers left a knife at the sceneA few minutes later police spotted
the stolen car a block away and took the four men inside into custody The vic-tims identified the men as their robbers Officers also found a gun and additional evidence in a nearby trash can
Two men and a pair of juveniles from Chicago all face felony armed robbery charges Ibrahim Lissa 21 of the 6500 block of North Mozart Street and Ste-phon D Pugh 20 of the 3700 block of
West Wilson Avenue in Chicago are each charged with armed robbery
The two boys accused in the case are not identified because of their age and police said they were turned over to the Cook County Juvenile Detention Center in Chicago
Soni said her father and brother were a bit shaken up but unharmed after the robbery
ldquoIrsquom a little shaken up right nowrdquo she said ldquoIrsquom scared now because now this is just a red flag that something like this could possibly happen againrdquo
An investigation found the group of robbers targeted the first two people they came across and police described the incident as ldquoan isolated crime of opportunityrdquo
Lincolnwood Village President Barry Bass described the incident as ldquodan-gerous and horrificrdquo in a letter to residents
ldquoUnfortunately many of our surround-ing communities are encountering an uptick in this type of activity which has seeped over the borders from Chicago and other areas into Lincolnwoodrdquo
ldquoI was also a victim of an armed assault last February in front of my home ironi-cally within two blocks of this recent in-cident No one should ever have to expe-rience a situation like thisrdquo Bass wrote

Burglar who targeted Hindu temple and churches gets prison time
NEW YORK (AP) - Authorities say a homeless man who told police he was ldquomad at Godrdquo is going to prison for burglarizing four New York City houses of worship
Queens District Attorney Richard A Brown announced on Monday that 24-year-old Joseph Woznik has been sen-tenced to 1-12 to 4-12 years after pleading
guilty to burglary as a hate crime and other charges
The break-ins occurred in March and April at a Hindu temple and three churches
Woznik pried open donation boxes ran-sacked church offices broke windows and pawned a churchrsquos digital camera One church was hit three times
STEVENS POINT WI - A local hotel owner has been charged with causing sub-stantial damage to one of his competitors
Dharmesh Patel 28 of Stevens Point was charged on Oct 5 after police say he cut copper water pipes leading to ice machines inside Country Inn amp Suites on Division St North
According to the complaint Stevens
Point police were called to Country Inn amp Suites at 1225 AM on Sept 30 after employees there suspected pipes on the hotelrsquos second and third floors had been intentionally cut causing water to leak onto the floor
The culprit left the pipe cutter behind according to District Attorney Louis Molepske
ldquoIt was saturated so badly the drywall was crumblingrdquo Molepske said add-ing water had also seeped into an eleva-tor shaft causing in excess of $5000 in damages
Molepske said hotel guests described two men near the ice machines around the time of the vandalism who identified themselves as plumbers One man was described as wearing ldquoblack shoes with a white striperdquo
When police questioned Patel - who was captured on security video at Coun-try Inn amp Suites - they noted he wore the same shoes identified by witnesses and visible in the video The officer stepped out of the room momentarily and upon return noted Patel had changed his shoes
During the course of the investigation police learned Patel had also allegedly at-tempted to hire a homeless man to place bed bugs at another competitor the Dayrsquos Inn in an attempt to shut it down and planned to also cause damage at Cobble-stone Hotel in the Downtown District
Patel previously served jail time for fraud and also has a criminal record of fraud theft and burglary in New Hamp-shire and Illinois Molepske said He is
currently on probation for a prostitution charge out of Marathon Co according to court records
Molepske asked Patel be held on a $2500 cash bond but Fluguar ordered a $10000 signature bond Patel was or-dered to relinquish his passport and avoid contact with Dayrsquos Inn Country Inn amp Suites Cobblestone Hotel and their em-ployees and guests as a condition of bond
CHICAGO - Chicago Ald Ameya Pawar (47th) has dropped out of the governorrsquos race saying he simply doesnrsquot have the mon-ey to compete statewide against wealthy competitors
ldquoWe raised $828000 from 2600 donors But we donrsquot have enough money to meaningfully scale our campaignrdquo Pawar told the Chicago Sun-Times after an-nouncing his decision in an email to supporters
ldquoI had two options Cut staff which is not an option or two take on personal debt and Irsquom not wealthy Irsquom sorry for the people who supported me that I donrsquot have the wealth or connections to keep goingrdquo
Speculation abounds that Pawarrsquos now-defunct populist campaign for governor could be a prelude to a 2019 race for mayor against incumbent Mayor Rahm Emanuel
ldquoPolitics today is very fluid Itrsquos unpredictable You never know hellip Irsquom never gonna say no Therersquos always a chance But I literally just got off the road after 10 months Itrsquos been really hard on all of us It took a lot of sacrifice by my familyrdquo he said
ldquoIrsquom not ruling anything out I just donrsquot want to talk about another office or another race today or any time in the near fu-ture But I can tell you Irsquom not done in politics Irsquom sure that I
Citing lack of money Ald Ameya Pawar drops out governorrsquos racewill run againrdquo
A natural alternative for sup-porters of Pawarrsquos populist cam-paign is progressive State Sen Daniel Biss (D-Evanston) But Pawar said he is not prepared to endorse any of his opponents ldquoat this timerdquo
Pawar knew when he got into the governorrsquos race that he would be up against a lot of money in the Democratic primary billion-aire JB Pritzker and millionaire Chris Kennedy also are seeking the Democratic nomination
But what he didnrsquot know and had to learn the hard way was just how tough it would be to raise enough money to be com-petitive in a statewide campaign In his email Pawar noted that
ldquothe race for Illinois governor will set a record as the costliest race in American history For democracyrsquos sake I hope we see this as a troubling trend My do-nors did the best they could Irsquom the one who came up short but I am not ashamedrdquo
Pawar 37 said he was start-ing a political action committee called One Illinois to organize young people around progressive causes
Young gutsy and smart Pawar knows city issues after two terms on the City Council He led the
drive for tax increment financ-ing reform mandatory sick days and a council budget analyst He even pushed to cut the council in half
Pawar whose parents came from India in the 1970s canrsquot be underestimated He won his first term at age 30 in an upset against a candidate handpicked by retir-ing Ald Eugene Schulter Pawar then won re-election in 2015 with 83 percent of the vote
Last Thursday Pawar said he has no intention of running for a third-term and violating his self-imposed two-term limit

NEW DELHI - An Indian court last Thursday overturned the con-viction of a dentist couple for the murder of their teenage daughter and the family servant for lack of material evidence their lawyer said
Aarushi Talwar was found with
her throat slit at the family home in the Delhi suburb of Noida in 2008 A day later the body of the servant Hemraj was found on the roof of the house
A trial court convicted the girlrsquos parents Rajesh and Nu-pur Talwar after police alleged
Indian court acquits dentist couple of killing daughterRajesh had murdered his daugh-ter and the servant in a rage when he found them in a compromis-ing situation The couple bothdentists were jailed for life
But a high court overruled the decision saying it was not satis-fi ed with the evidence and or-
dered the couple be freed their lawyer Tanveer Ahmed Mir said
ldquoThe court found no forensic or material evidence to prove that the Talwars had killed their daughterrdquo Mir told reporters out-side a packed courtroom in the northern city of Allahabad
Both parents had denied the murder and insisted they were victims of botched investiga-tions and unfair media coveragedamaging their defense
Aarushirsquos case was labeled as a kind of crime more often as-sociated with rural conserva-tive parts of India where ldquohonor
killingsrdquo are not uncommonEvery twist in the investigation
was extensively reported by the Indian press turning the Talwars into household names
ldquoFinally my family can lead a dignifi ed life The court has up-held the facts and truthrdquo said Rajesh Talwarrsquos sister Vandana after the decision
In 2015 a journalist who cov-ered the murder wrote a book arguing that the couple were in-nocent The double murder case and faulty probe were used as a theme for a Bollywood movie the same year

Death of 11-year-old in India sparks debate on tying welfare to identity card
MUMBAI - The death of an 11-year-old girl in India who campaigners say died of hunger because her familyrsquos ration card was cancelled has sparked debate about linking welfare to identity cards
Activists say Santoshi Kumari died last month after her family was denied subsidised grain be-cause their biometric identity card known as Aadhaar was not linked to their ration card in government records
ldquoThe girlrsquos family told us they had not eaten for six days when Santoshi diedrdquo said Dheeraj Ku-mar with advocacy group Right to Food Campaign
ldquoThey had complained to the local offi cials about the faulty card several times but no
one had helpedrdquoState offi cials in the northern
Indian state of Jharkhand said the girl died of malaria not starvation and the chief minister has ordered an investigation
ldquoWhile there could be doubts over the cause of death we have to ensure that no ration card is de-leted because of non-availability of Aadhaarrdquo state welfare minis-ter Saryu Roy told reporters ldquoIf someone has done this then it is wrongrdquo
More than 11 billion Indian residents have an Aadhaar card which uses fi ngerprints and irin scans to identify them
Activists say large numbers of the poor have been denied welfare benefi ts because of errors in the system
The government made Aadhaar mandatory for welfare pension and employment schemes this year despite a 2014 Supreme Court rul-ing that it cannot be a requirement for welfare programmes
ldquoThese are poor illiterate people with no knowledge of technol-ogy They are suff ering because someone did not (link) the cardproperlyrdquo said Kumar
Kumar said more than 1 million ration cards had been cancelled in Jharkhand one of Indiarsquos poorest states after a directive in April saying they must be linked toAadhaar cards
Last year funding cuts in wel-fare schemes contributed to the starvation deaths of about 600 children in the western state of Maharashtra activists said

LONDON - About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
The risk of displacement could rise as populations swell and the impacts of climate change be-come more severe said a report issued last Friday by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the Geneva-based Internal Dis-placement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)
Earthquakes tsunamis floods and tropical cyclones are the main disasters forecast to uproot large numbers of people with
countries in Asia home to 60 per-cent of the worldrsquos population hit particularly hard according to modeling by the agencies
Eight of the ten countries with the highest levels of displace-ment and housing loss are in South and Southeast Asia
They include India where an average of 23 million people are forced to leave their homes an-nually and China with 13 mil-lion people uprooted each year found the report released on the International Day for Disaster Reduction
The numbers exclude those evacuated ahead of a threat and people displaced by drought or rising seas
Russia and the United States
also feature as countries where disasters could cause large-scale homelessness unless significant progress is made on managing disaster risk the study said
ldquoThe findings underline the challenge we have to reduce the numbers of people affected by di-sastersrdquo said Robert Glasser the UN secretary-generalrsquos special representative for disaster risk
reductionldquoApart from death or severe
injury in a disaster event there is no more crushing blow than the loss of the family homerdquo he added in a statement
The most devastating floods to hit South Asia in a decade killed more than 1400 people this year and focused attention on poor planning for disasters as authori-
ties struggled to assist millions of destitute survivors
Refugees and people uprooted in their own countries are al-ready at record-high numbers said IDMC director Alexan-dra Bilak The new model goes some way toward predicting the risk of disaster-related displace-ment which is an ldquourgent global priorityrdquo she noted
Disasters make 14 million people homeless each year UN
About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
New policy could give Indiarsquos often exploited domestic workers minimum wage and benefits
MUMBAI - Domestic work-ers in India will soon be entitled to a minimum wage and social security benefits according to a draft proposal that activists say does not go far enough to protect these workers and lets employers off the hook
The policy proposes to give domestic workers the right to register themselves as employ-ees guarantees a minimum wage protection from abuse and access to health insurance maternity benefits and pension as well as an opportunity to add skills
The policy will ldquoexplicitly and effectively expand the scope of applicable legislations policies
and schemes to grant domestic workers rights that are enshrined in lawsrdquo a labor ministry state-ment said late on Monday without specifying a timeline
There are at least 67 million domestic workers globally and this number is rising quickly according to the International Labour Organization About 80 percent are women
Indiarsquos rising affluence ur-banization and growing num-bers of working women have spurred increasing demand for domestic workers in the country
Rights activists estimate there are tens of millions of such workers most of them wom-
en who are often underpaid exploited and abused
Many are young largely un-educated women from poor rural areas who live apart from their families
In July a police complaint by a maid saying she was beaten up and locked up by her employers in an upscale neighborhood near New Delhi triggered days of violence
Activists have been cam-paigning for years for the pas-sage of a separate bill to provide domestic workers with a mini-mum monthly salary of 9000 rupees ($140) and benefits in-cluding social security cover and mandatory time off

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta

47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense
The Supreme Court last Wednesday said ldquosexual in-tercourse with a girl below 18 years of age is rape regardless of whether she is married or notrsquorsquo

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Bollywood TriviaWhich actor debuted with a
double role in ldquoKaho Naa Pyaar Hairdquo
Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

By Sudeep Roy MD
A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

LINCOLNWOOD IL - Four people have been arrested for robbing a fa-ther and son at gunpoint last Sunday afternoon outside their home in north suburban Lincolnwood
Sonali Soni helped police catch the four robbers by providing a description of the suspects who held up her father and brother
ldquoI freaked out called the cops and then they got caughtrdquo she said
Police said Sonirsquos 60-year old father and her 27-year old brother were get-ting into their car outside the house on the 6600 block of North Drake when they were confronted by four males one armed with a handgun The robbers de-manded their wallets cell phones and a backpack and the man with the gun also took their car keys and the suspects took their car and fled the scene
The robbers left a knife at the sceneA few minutes later police spotted
the stolen car a block away and took the four men inside into custody The vic-tims identified the men as their robbers Officers also found a gun and additional evidence in a nearby trash can
Two men and a pair of juveniles from Chicago all face felony armed robbery charges Ibrahim Lissa 21 of the 6500 block of North Mozart Street and Ste-phon D Pugh 20 of the 3700 block of
West Wilson Avenue in Chicago are each charged with armed robbery
The two boys accused in the case are not identified because of their age and police said they were turned over to the Cook County Juvenile Detention Center in Chicago
Soni said her father and brother were a bit shaken up but unharmed after the robbery
ldquoIrsquom a little shaken up right nowrdquo she said ldquoIrsquom scared now because now this is just a red flag that something like this could possibly happen againrdquo
An investigation found the group of robbers targeted the first two people they came across and police described the incident as ldquoan isolated crime of opportunityrdquo
Lincolnwood Village President Barry Bass described the incident as ldquodan-gerous and horrificrdquo in a letter to residents
ldquoUnfortunately many of our surround-ing communities are encountering an uptick in this type of activity which has seeped over the borders from Chicago and other areas into Lincolnwoodrdquo
ldquoI was also a victim of an armed assault last February in front of my home ironi-cally within two blocks of this recent in-cident No one should ever have to expe-rience a situation like thisrdquo Bass wrote

Burglar who targeted Hindu temple and churches gets prison time
NEW YORK (AP) - Authorities say a homeless man who told police he was ldquomad at Godrdquo is going to prison for burglarizing four New York City houses of worship
Queens District Attorney Richard A Brown announced on Monday that 24-year-old Joseph Woznik has been sen-tenced to 1-12 to 4-12 years after pleading
guilty to burglary as a hate crime and other charges
The break-ins occurred in March and April at a Hindu temple and three churches
Woznik pried open donation boxes ran-sacked church offices broke windows and pawned a churchrsquos digital camera One church was hit three times
STEVENS POINT WI - A local hotel owner has been charged with causing sub-stantial damage to one of his competitors
Dharmesh Patel 28 of Stevens Point was charged on Oct 5 after police say he cut copper water pipes leading to ice machines inside Country Inn amp Suites on Division St North
According to the complaint Stevens
Point police were called to Country Inn amp Suites at 1225 AM on Sept 30 after employees there suspected pipes on the hotelrsquos second and third floors had been intentionally cut causing water to leak onto the floor
The culprit left the pipe cutter behind according to District Attorney Louis Molepske
ldquoIt was saturated so badly the drywall was crumblingrdquo Molepske said add-ing water had also seeped into an eleva-tor shaft causing in excess of $5000 in damages
Molepske said hotel guests described two men near the ice machines around the time of the vandalism who identified themselves as plumbers One man was described as wearing ldquoblack shoes with a white striperdquo
When police questioned Patel - who was captured on security video at Coun-try Inn amp Suites - they noted he wore the same shoes identified by witnesses and visible in the video The officer stepped out of the room momentarily and upon return noted Patel had changed his shoes
During the course of the investigation police learned Patel had also allegedly at-tempted to hire a homeless man to place bed bugs at another competitor the Dayrsquos Inn in an attempt to shut it down and planned to also cause damage at Cobble-stone Hotel in the Downtown District
Patel previously served jail time for fraud and also has a criminal record of fraud theft and burglary in New Hamp-shire and Illinois Molepske said He is
currently on probation for a prostitution charge out of Marathon Co according to court records
Molepske asked Patel be held on a $2500 cash bond but Fluguar ordered a $10000 signature bond Patel was or-dered to relinquish his passport and avoid contact with Dayrsquos Inn Country Inn amp Suites Cobblestone Hotel and their em-ployees and guests as a condition of bond
CHICAGO - Chicago Ald Ameya Pawar (47th) has dropped out of the governorrsquos race saying he simply doesnrsquot have the mon-ey to compete statewide against wealthy competitors
ldquoWe raised $828000 from 2600 donors But we donrsquot have enough money to meaningfully scale our campaignrdquo Pawar told the Chicago Sun-Times after an-nouncing his decision in an email to supporters
ldquoI had two options Cut staff which is not an option or two take on personal debt and Irsquom not wealthy Irsquom sorry for the people who supported me that I donrsquot have the wealth or connections to keep goingrdquo
Speculation abounds that Pawarrsquos now-defunct populist campaign for governor could be a prelude to a 2019 race for mayor against incumbent Mayor Rahm Emanuel
ldquoPolitics today is very fluid Itrsquos unpredictable You never know hellip Irsquom never gonna say no Therersquos always a chance But I literally just got off the road after 10 months Itrsquos been really hard on all of us It took a lot of sacrifice by my familyrdquo he said
ldquoIrsquom not ruling anything out I just donrsquot want to talk about another office or another race today or any time in the near fu-ture But I can tell you Irsquom not done in politics Irsquom sure that I
Citing lack of money Ald Ameya Pawar drops out governorrsquos racewill run againrdquo
A natural alternative for sup-porters of Pawarrsquos populist cam-paign is progressive State Sen Daniel Biss (D-Evanston) But Pawar said he is not prepared to endorse any of his opponents ldquoat this timerdquo
Pawar knew when he got into the governorrsquos race that he would be up against a lot of money in the Democratic primary billion-aire JB Pritzker and millionaire Chris Kennedy also are seeking the Democratic nomination
But what he didnrsquot know and had to learn the hard way was just how tough it would be to raise enough money to be com-petitive in a statewide campaign In his email Pawar noted that
ldquothe race for Illinois governor will set a record as the costliest race in American history For democracyrsquos sake I hope we see this as a troubling trend My do-nors did the best they could Irsquom the one who came up short but I am not ashamedrdquo
Pawar 37 said he was start-ing a political action committee called One Illinois to organize young people around progressive causes
Young gutsy and smart Pawar knows city issues after two terms on the City Council He led the
drive for tax increment financ-ing reform mandatory sick days and a council budget analyst He even pushed to cut the council in half
Pawar whose parents came from India in the 1970s canrsquot be underestimated He won his first term at age 30 in an upset against a candidate handpicked by retir-ing Ald Eugene Schulter Pawar then won re-election in 2015 with 83 percent of the vote
Last Thursday Pawar said he has no intention of running for a third-term and violating his self-imposed two-term limit

NEW DELHI - An Indian court last Thursday overturned the con-viction of a dentist couple for the murder of their teenage daughter and the family servant for lack of material evidence their lawyer said
Aarushi Talwar was found with
her throat slit at the family home in the Delhi suburb of Noida in 2008 A day later the body of the servant Hemraj was found on the roof of the house
A trial court convicted the girlrsquos parents Rajesh and Nu-pur Talwar after police alleged
Indian court acquits dentist couple of killing daughterRajesh had murdered his daugh-ter and the servant in a rage when he found them in a compromis-ing situation The couple bothdentists were jailed for life
But a high court overruled the decision saying it was not satis-fi ed with the evidence and or-
dered the couple be freed their lawyer Tanveer Ahmed Mir said
ldquoThe court found no forensic or material evidence to prove that the Talwars had killed their daughterrdquo Mir told reporters out-side a packed courtroom in the northern city of Allahabad
Both parents had denied the murder and insisted they were victims of botched investiga-tions and unfair media coveragedamaging their defense
Aarushirsquos case was labeled as a kind of crime more often as-sociated with rural conserva-tive parts of India where ldquohonor
killingsrdquo are not uncommonEvery twist in the investigation
was extensively reported by the Indian press turning the Talwars into household names
ldquoFinally my family can lead a dignifi ed life The court has up-held the facts and truthrdquo said Rajesh Talwarrsquos sister Vandana after the decision
In 2015 a journalist who cov-ered the murder wrote a book arguing that the couple were in-nocent The double murder case and faulty probe were used as a theme for a Bollywood movie the same year

Death of 11-year-old in India sparks debate on tying welfare to identity card
MUMBAI - The death of an 11-year-old girl in India who campaigners say died of hunger because her familyrsquos ration card was cancelled has sparked debate about linking welfare to identity cards
Activists say Santoshi Kumari died last month after her family was denied subsidised grain be-cause their biometric identity card known as Aadhaar was not linked to their ration card in government records
ldquoThe girlrsquos family told us they had not eaten for six days when Santoshi diedrdquo said Dheeraj Ku-mar with advocacy group Right to Food Campaign
ldquoThey had complained to the local offi cials about the faulty card several times but no
one had helpedrdquoState offi cials in the northern
Indian state of Jharkhand said the girl died of malaria not starvation and the chief minister has ordered an investigation
ldquoWhile there could be doubts over the cause of death we have to ensure that no ration card is de-leted because of non-availability of Aadhaarrdquo state welfare minis-ter Saryu Roy told reporters ldquoIf someone has done this then it is wrongrdquo
More than 11 billion Indian residents have an Aadhaar card which uses fi ngerprints and irin scans to identify them
Activists say large numbers of the poor have been denied welfare benefi ts because of errors in the system
The government made Aadhaar mandatory for welfare pension and employment schemes this year despite a 2014 Supreme Court rul-ing that it cannot be a requirement for welfare programmes
ldquoThese are poor illiterate people with no knowledge of technol-ogy They are suff ering because someone did not (link) the cardproperlyrdquo said Kumar
Kumar said more than 1 million ration cards had been cancelled in Jharkhand one of Indiarsquos poorest states after a directive in April saying they must be linked toAadhaar cards
Last year funding cuts in wel-fare schemes contributed to the starvation deaths of about 600 children in the western state of Maharashtra activists said

LONDON - About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
The risk of displacement could rise as populations swell and the impacts of climate change be-come more severe said a report issued last Friday by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the Geneva-based Internal Dis-placement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)
Earthquakes tsunamis floods and tropical cyclones are the main disasters forecast to uproot large numbers of people with
countries in Asia home to 60 per-cent of the worldrsquos population hit particularly hard according to modeling by the agencies
Eight of the ten countries with the highest levels of displace-ment and housing loss are in South and Southeast Asia
They include India where an average of 23 million people are forced to leave their homes an-nually and China with 13 mil-lion people uprooted each year found the report released on the International Day for Disaster Reduction
The numbers exclude those evacuated ahead of a threat and people displaced by drought or rising seas
Russia and the United States
also feature as countries where disasters could cause large-scale homelessness unless significant progress is made on managing disaster risk the study said
ldquoThe findings underline the challenge we have to reduce the numbers of people affected by di-sastersrdquo said Robert Glasser the UN secretary-generalrsquos special representative for disaster risk
reductionldquoApart from death or severe
injury in a disaster event there is no more crushing blow than the loss of the family homerdquo he added in a statement
The most devastating floods to hit South Asia in a decade killed more than 1400 people this year and focused attention on poor planning for disasters as authori-
ties struggled to assist millions of destitute survivors
Refugees and people uprooted in their own countries are al-ready at record-high numbers said IDMC director Alexan-dra Bilak The new model goes some way toward predicting the risk of disaster-related displace-ment which is an ldquourgent global priorityrdquo she noted
Disasters make 14 million people homeless each year UN
About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
New policy could give Indiarsquos often exploited domestic workers minimum wage and benefits
MUMBAI - Domestic work-ers in India will soon be entitled to a minimum wage and social security benefits according to a draft proposal that activists say does not go far enough to protect these workers and lets employers off the hook
The policy proposes to give domestic workers the right to register themselves as employ-ees guarantees a minimum wage protection from abuse and access to health insurance maternity benefits and pension as well as an opportunity to add skills
The policy will ldquoexplicitly and effectively expand the scope of applicable legislations policies
and schemes to grant domestic workers rights that are enshrined in lawsrdquo a labor ministry state-ment said late on Monday without specifying a timeline
There are at least 67 million domestic workers globally and this number is rising quickly according to the International Labour Organization About 80 percent are women
Indiarsquos rising affluence ur-banization and growing num-bers of working women have spurred increasing demand for domestic workers in the country
Rights activists estimate there are tens of millions of such workers most of them wom-
en who are often underpaid exploited and abused
Many are young largely un-educated women from poor rural areas who live apart from their families
In July a police complaint by a maid saying she was beaten up and locked up by her employers in an upscale neighborhood near New Delhi triggered days of violence
Activists have been cam-paigning for years for the pas-sage of a separate bill to provide domestic workers with a mini-mum monthly salary of 9000 rupees ($140) and benefits in-cluding social security cover and mandatory time off

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta
Marriages of girls are preva-lent in India especially among
Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense
The Supreme Court last Wednesday said ldquosexual in-tercourse with a girl below 18 years of age is rape regardless of whether she is married or notrsquorsquo

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Bollywood TriviaWhich actor debuted with a
double role in ldquoKaho Naa Pyaar Hairdquo
Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

Police said Sonirsquos 60-year old father and her 27-year old brother were get-ting into their car outside the house on the 6600 block of North Drake when they were confronted by four males one armed with a handgun The robbers de-manded their wallets cell phones and a backpack and the man with the gun also took their car keys and the suspects took their car and fled the scene
The robbers left a knife at the sceneA few minutes later police spotted
the stolen car a block away and took the four men inside into custody The vic-tims identified the men as their robbers Officers also found a gun and additional evidence in a nearby trash can
Two men and a pair of juveniles from Chicago all face felony armed robbery charges Ibrahim Lissa 21 of the 6500 block of North Mozart Street and Ste-phon D Pugh 20 of the 3700 block of
West Wilson Avenue in Chicago are each charged with armed robbery
The two boys accused in the case are not identified because of their age and police said they were turned over to the Cook County Juvenile Detention Center in Chicago
Soni said her father and brother were a bit shaken up but unharmed after the robbery
ldquoIrsquom a little shaken up right nowrdquo she said ldquoIrsquom scared now because now this is just a red flag that something like this could possibly happen againrdquo
An investigation found the group of robbers targeted the first two people they came across and police described the incident as ldquoan isolated crime of opportunityrdquo
Lincolnwood Village President Barry Bass described the incident as ldquodan-gerous and horrificrdquo in a letter to residents
ldquoUnfortunately many of our surround-ing communities are encountering an uptick in this type of activity which has seeped over the borders from Chicago and other areas into Lincolnwoodrdquo
ldquoI was also a victim of an armed assault last February in front of my home ironi-cally within two blocks of this recent in-cident No one should ever have to expe-rience a situation like thisrdquo Bass wrote

Burglar who targeted Hindu temple and churches gets prison time
NEW YORK (AP) - Authorities say a homeless man who told police he was ldquomad at Godrdquo is going to prison for burglarizing four New York City houses of worship
Queens District Attorney Richard A Brown announced on Monday that 24-year-old Joseph Woznik has been sen-tenced to 1-12 to 4-12 years after pleading
guilty to burglary as a hate crime and other charges
The break-ins occurred in March and April at a Hindu temple and three churches
Woznik pried open donation boxes ran-sacked church offices broke windows and pawned a churchrsquos digital camera One church was hit three times
STEVENS POINT WI - A local hotel owner has been charged with causing sub-stantial damage to one of his competitors
Dharmesh Patel 28 of Stevens Point was charged on Oct 5 after police say he cut copper water pipes leading to ice machines inside Country Inn amp Suites on Division St North
According to the complaint Stevens
Point police were called to Country Inn amp Suites at 1225 AM on Sept 30 after employees there suspected pipes on the hotelrsquos second and third floors had been intentionally cut causing water to leak onto the floor
The culprit left the pipe cutter behind according to District Attorney Louis Molepske
ldquoIt was saturated so badly the drywall was crumblingrdquo Molepske said add-ing water had also seeped into an eleva-tor shaft causing in excess of $5000 in damages
Molepske said hotel guests described two men near the ice machines around the time of the vandalism who identified themselves as plumbers One man was described as wearing ldquoblack shoes with a white striperdquo
When police questioned Patel - who was captured on security video at Coun-try Inn amp Suites - they noted he wore the same shoes identified by witnesses and visible in the video The officer stepped out of the room momentarily and upon return noted Patel had changed his shoes
During the course of the investigation police learned Patel had also allegedly at-tempted to hire a homeless man to place bed bugs at another competitor the Dayrsquos Inn in an attempt to shut it down and planned to also cause damage at Cobble-stone Hotel in the Downtown District
Patel previously served jail time for fraud and also has a criminal record of fraud theft and burglary in New Hamp-shire and Illinois Molepske said He is
currently on probation for a prostitution charge out of Marathon Co according to court records
Molepske asked Patel be held on a $2500 cash bond but Fluguar ordered a $10000 signature bond Patel was or-dered to relinquish his passport and avoid contact with Dayrsquos Inn Country Inn amp Suites Cobblestone Hotel and their em-ployees and guests as a condition of bond
CHICAGO - Chicago Ald Ameya Pawar (47th) has dropped out of the governorrsquos race saying he simply doesnrsquot have the mon-ey to compete statewide against wealthy competitors
ldquoWe raised $828000 from 2600 donors But we donrsquot have enough money to meaningfully scale our campaignrdquo Pawar told the Chicago Sun-Times after an-nouncing his decision in an email to supporters
ldquoI had two options Cut staff which is not an option or two take on personal debt and Irsquom not wealthy Irsquom sorry for the people who supported me that I donrsquot have the wealth or connections to keep goingrdquo
Speculation abounds that Pawarrsquos now-defunct populist campaign for governor could be a prelude to a 2019 race for mayor against incumbent Mayor Rahm Emanuel
ldquoPolitics today is very fluid Itrsquos unpredictable You never know hellip Irsquom never gonna say no Therersquos always a chance But I literally just got off the road after 10 months Itrsquos been really hard on all of us It took a lot of sacrifice by my familyrdquo he said
ldquoIrsquom not ruling anything out I just donrsquot want to talk about another office or another race today or any time in the near fu-ture But I can tell you Irsquom not done in politics Irsquom sure that I
Citing lack of money Ald Ameya Pawar drops out governorrsquos racewill run againrdquo
A natural alternative for sup-porters of Pawarrsquos populist cam-paign is progressive State Sen Daniel Biss (D-Evanston) But Pawar said he is not prepared to endorse any of his opponents ldquoat this timerdquo
Pawar knew when he got into the governorrsquos race that he would be up against a lot of money in the Democratic primary billion-aire JB Pritzker and millionaire Chris Kennedy also are seeking the Democratic nomination
But what he didnrsquot know and had to learn the hard way was just how tough it would be to raise enough money to be com-petitive in a statewide campaign In his email Pawar noted that
ldquothe race for Illinois governor will set a record as the costliest race in American history For democracyrsquos sake I hope we see this as a troubling trend My do-nors did the best they could Irsquom the one who came up short but I am not ashamedrdquo
Pawar 37 said he was start-ing a political action committee called One Illinois to organize young people around progressive causes
Young gutsy and smart Pawar knows city issues after two terms on the City Council He led the
drive for tax increment financ-ing reform mandatory sick days and a council budget analyst He even pushed to cut the council in half
Pawar whose parents came from India in the 1970s canrsquot be underestimated He won his first term at age 30 in an upset against a candidate handpicked by retir-ing Ald Eugene Schulter Pawar then won re-election in 2015 with 83 percent of the vote
Last Thursday Pawar said he has no intention of running for a third-term and violating his self-imposed two-term limit

NEW DELHI - An Indian court last Thursday overturned the con-viction of a dentist couple for the murder of their teenage daughter and the family servant for lack of material evidence their lawyer said
Aarushi Talwar was found with
her throat slit at the family home in the Delhi suburb of Noida in 2008 A day later the body of the servant Hemraj was found on the roof of the house
A trial court convicted the girlrsquos parents Rajesh and Nu-pur Talwar after police alleged
Indian court acquits dentist couple of killing daughterRajesh had murdered his daugh-ter and the servant in a rage when he found them in a compromis-ing situation The couple bothdentists were jailed for life
But a high court overruled the decision saying it was not satis-fi ed with the evidence and or-
dered the couple be freed their lawyer Tanveer Ahmed Mir said
ldquoThe court found no forensic or material evidence to prove that the Talwars had killed their daughterrdquo Mir told reporters out-side a packed courtroom in the northern city of Allahabad
Both parents had denied the murder and insisted they were victims of botched investiga-tions and unfair media coveragedamaging their defense
Aarushirsquos case was labeled as a kind of crime more often as-sociated with rural conserva-tive parts of India where ldquohonor
killingsrdquo are not uncommonEvery twist in the investigation
was extensively reported by the Indian press turning the Talwars into household names
ldquoFinally my family can lead a dignifi ed life The court has up-held the facts and truthrdquo said Rajesh Talwarrsquos sister Vandana after the decision
In 2015 a journalist who cov-ered the murder wrote a book arguing that the couple were in-nocent The double murder case and faulty probe were used as a theme for a Bollywood movie the same year

Death of 11-year-old in India sparks debate on tying welfare to identity card
MUMBAI - The death of an 11-year-old girl in India who campaigners say died of hunger because her familyrsquos ration card was cancelled has sparked debate about linking welfare to identity cards
Activists say Santoshi Kumari died last month after her family was denied subsidised grain be-cause their biometric identity card known as Aadhaar was not linked to their ration card in government records
ldquoThe girlrsquos family told us they had not eaten for six days when Santoshi diedrdquo said Dheeraj Ku-mar with advocacy group Right to Food Campaign
ldquoThey had complained to the local offi cials about the faulty card several times but no
one had helpedrdquoState offi cials in the northern
Indian state of Jharkhand said the girl died of malaria not starvation and the chief minister has ordered an investigation
ldquoWhile there could be doubts over the cause of death we have to ensure that no ration card is de-leted because of non-availability of Aadhaarrdquo state welfare minis-ter Saryu Roy told reporters ldquoIf someone has done this then it is wrongrdquo
More than 11 billion Indian residents have an Aadhaar card which uses fi ngerprints and irin scans to identify them
Activists say large numbers of the poor have been denied welfare benefi ts because of errors in the system
The government made Aadhaar mandatory for welfare pension and employment schemes this year despite a 2014 Supreme Court rul-ing that it cannot be a requirement for welfare programmes
ldquoThese are poor illiterate people with no knowledge of technol-ogy They are suff ering because someone did not (link) the cardproperlyrdquo said Kumar
Kumar said more than 1 million ration cards had been cancelled in Jharkhand one of Indiarsquos poorest states after a directive in April saying they must be linked toAadhaar cards
Last year funding cuts in wel-fare schemes contributed to the starvation deaths of about 600 children in the western state of Maharashtra activists said

LONDON - About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
The risk of displacement could rise as populations swell and the impacts of climate change be-come more severe said a report issued last Friday by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the Geneva-based Internal Dis-placement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)
Earthquakes tsunamis floods and tropical cyclones are the main disasters forecast to uproot large numbers of people with
countries in Asia home to 60 per-cent of the worldrsquos population hit particularly hard according to modeling by the agencies
Eight of the ten countries with the highest levels of displace-ment and housing loss are in South and Southeast Asia
They include India where an average of 23 million people are forced to leave their homes an-nually and China with 13 mil-lion people uprooted each year found the report released on the International Day for Disaster Reduction
The numbers exclude those evacuated ahead of a threat and people displaced by drought or rising seas
Russia and the United States
also feature as countries where disasters could cause large-scale homelessness unless significant progress is made on managing disaster risk the study said
ldquoThe findings underline the challenge we have to reduce the numbers of people affected by di-sastersrdquo said Robert Glasser the UN secretary-generalrsquos special representative for disaster risk
reductionldquoApart from death or severe
injury in a disaster event there is no more crushing blow than the loss of the family homerdquo he added in a statement
The most devastating floods to hit South Asia in a decade killed more than 1400 people this year and focused attention on poor planning for disasters as authori-
ties struggled to assist millions of destitute survivors
Refugees and people uprooted in their own countries are al-ready at record-high numbers said IDMC director Alexan-dra Bilak The new model goes some way toward predicting the risk of disaster-related displace-ment which is an ldquourgent global priorityrdquo she noted
Disasters make 14 million people homeless each year UN

New policy could give Indiarsquos often exploited domestic workers minimum wage and benefits
MUMBAI - Domestic work-ers in India will soon be entitled to a minimum wage and social security benefits according to a draft proposal that activists say does not go far enough to protect these workers and lets employers off the hook
The policy proposes to give domestic workers the right to register themselves as employ-ees guarantees a minimum wage protection from abuse and access to health insurance maternity benefits and pension as well as an opportunity to add skills
The policy will ldquoexplicitly and effectively expand the scope of applicable legislations policies
and schemes to grant domestic workers rights that are enshrined in lawsrdquo a labor ministry state-ment said late on Monday without specifying a timeline
There are at least 67 million domestic workers globally and this number is rising quickly according to the International Labour Organization About 80 percent are women
Indiarsquos rising affluence ur-banization and growing num-bers of working women have spurred increasing demand for domestic workers in the country
Rights activists estimate there are tens of millions of such workers most of them wom-
en who are often underpaid exploited and abused
Many are young largely un-educated women from poor rural areas who live apart from their families
In July a police complaint by a maid saying she was beaten up and locked up by her employers in an upscale neighborhood near New Delhi triggered days of violence
Activists have been cam-paigning for years for the pas-sage of a separate bill to provide domestic workers with a mini-mum monthly salary of 9000 rupees ($140) and benefits in-cluding social security cover and mandatory time off

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms

Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta
Marriages of girls are preva-lent in India especially among
Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense
The Supreme Court last Wednesday said ldquosexual in-tercourse with a girl below 18 years of age is rape regardless of whether she is married or notrsquorsquo

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Bollywood TriviaWhich actor debuted with a
double role in ldquoKaho Naa Pyaar Hairdquo
Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee
SDIX launched in 2016 says it is the worldrsquos first and only electronic exchange for trading investment-grade diamonds

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

CHICAGO - Chicago Ald Ameya Pawar (47th) has dropped out of the governorrsquos race saying he simply doesnrsquot have the mon-ey to compete statewide against wealthy competitors
ldquoWe raised $828000 from 2600 donors But we donrsquot have enough money to meaningfully scale our campaignrdquo Pawar told the Chicago Sun-Times after an-nouncing his decision in an email to supporters
ldquoI had two options Cut staff which is not an option or two take on personal debt and Irsquom not wealthy Irsquom sorry for the people who supported me that I donrsquot have the wealth or connections to keep goingrdquo
Speculation abounds that Pawarrsquos now-defunct populist campaign for governor could be a prelude to a 2019 race for mayor against incumbent Mayor Rahm Emanuel
ldquoPolitics today is very fluid Itrsquos unpredictable You never know hellip Irsquom never gonna say no Therersquos always a chance But I literally just got off the road after 10 months Itrsquos been really hard on all of us It took a lot of sacrifice by my familyrdquo he said
ldquoIrsquom not ruling anything out I just donrsquot want to talk about another office or another race today or any time in the near fu-ture But I can tell you Irsquom not done in politics Irsquom sure that I
Citing lack of money Ald Ameya Pawar drops out governorrsquos racewill run againrdquo
A natural alternative for sup-porters of Pawarrsquos populist cam-paign is progressive State Sen Daniel Biss (D-Evanston) But Pawar said he is not prepared to endorse any of his opponents ldquoat this timerdquo
Pawar knew when he got into the governorrsquos race that he would be up against a lot of money in the Democratic primary billion-aire JB Pritzker and millionaire Chris Kennedy also are seeking the Democratic nomination
But what he didnrsquot know and had to learn the hard way was just how tough it would be to raise enough money to be com-petitive in a statewide campaign In his email Pawar noted that
ldquothe race for Illinois governor will set a record as the costliest race in American history For democracyrsquos sake I hope we see this as a troubling trend My do-nors did the best they could Irsquom the one who came up short but I am not ashamedrdquo
Pawar 37 said he was start-ing a political action committee called One Illinois to organize young people around progressive causes
Young gutsy and smart Pawar knows city issues after two terms on the City Council He led the
drive for tax increment financ-ing reform mandatory sick days and a council budget analyst He even pushed to cut the council in half
Pawar whose parents came from India in the 1970s canrsquot be underestimated He won his first term at age 30 in an upset against a candidate handpicked by retir-ing Ald Eugene Schulter Pawar then won re-election in 2015 with 83 percent of the vote
Last Thursday Pawar said he has no intention of running for a third-term and violating his self-imposed two-term limit

Amar Patel pleaded guilty Tuesday to the theft The 36-year-old Delran man faces a 10-year term when hersquos sentenced January 26

NEW DELHI - An Indian court last Thursday overturned the con-viction of a dentist couple for the murder of their teenage daughter and the family servant for lack of material evidence their lawyer said
Aarushi Talwar was found with
her throat slit at the family home in the Delhi suburb of Noida in 2008 A day later the body of the servant Hemraj was found on the roof of the house
A trial court convicted the girlrsquos parents Rajesh and Nu-pur Talwar after police alleged
Indian court acquits dentist couple of killing daughterRajesh had murdered his daugh-ter and the servant in a rage when he found them in a compromis-ing situation The couple bothdentists were jailed for life
But a high court overruled the decision saying it was not satis-fi ed with the evidence and or-
dered the couple be freed their lawyer Tanveer Ahmed Mir said
ldquoThe court found no forensic or material evidence to prove that the Talwars had killed their daughterrdquo Mir told reporters out-side a packed courtroom in the northern city of Allahabad
Both parents had denied the murder and insisted they were victims of botched investiga-tions and unfair media coveragedamaging their defense
Aarushirsquos case was labeled as a kind of crime more often as-sociated with rural conserva-tive parts of India where ldquohonor
killingsrdquo are not uncommonEvery twist in the investigation
was extensively reported by the Indian press turning the Talwars into household names
ldquoFinally my family can lead a dignifi ed life The court has up-held the facts and truthrdquo said Rajesh Talwarrsquos sister Vandana after the decision
In 2015 a journalist who cov-ered the murder wrote a book arguing that the couple were in-nocent The double murder case and faulty probe were used as a theme for a Bollywood movie the same year

Death of 11-year-old in India sparks debate on tying welfare to identity card
MUMBAI - The death of an 11-year-old girl in India who campaigners say died of hunger because her familyrsquos ration card was cancelled has sparked debate about linking welfare to identity cards
Activists say Santoshi Kumari died last month after her family was denied subsidised grain be-cause their biometric identity card known as Aadhaar was not linked to their ration card in government records
ldquoThe girlrsquos family told us they had not eaten for six days when Santoshi diedrdquo said Dheeraj Ku-mar with advocacy group Right to Food Campaign
ldquoThey had complained to the local offi cials about the faulty card several times but no
one had helpedrdquoState offi cials in the northern
Indian state of Jharkhand said the girl died of malaria not starvation and the chief minister has ordered an investigation
ldquoWhile there could be doubts over the cause of death we have to ensure that no ration card is de-leted because of non-availability of Aadhaarrdquo state welfare minis-ter Saryu Roy told reporters ldquoIf someone has done this then it is wrongrdquo
More than 11 billion Indian residents have an Aadhaar card which uses fi ngerprints and irin scans to identify them
Activists say large numbers of the poor have been denied welfare benefi ts because of errors in the system
The government made Aadhaar mandatory for welfare pension and employment schemes this year despite a 2014 Supreme Court rul-ing that it cannot be a requirement for welfare programmes
ldquoThese are poor illiterate people with no knowledge of technol-ogy They are suff ering because someone did not (link) the cardproperlyrdquo said Kumar
Kumar said more than 1 million ration cards had been cancelled in Jharkhand one of Indiarsquos poorest states after a directive in April saying they must be linked toAadhaar cards
Last year funding cuts in wel-fare schemes contributed to the starvation deaths of about 600 children in the western state of Maharashtra activists said

LONDON - About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
The risk of displacement could rise as populations swell and the impacts of climate change be-come more severe said a report issued last Friday by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the Geneva-based Internal Dis-placement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)
Earthquakes tsunamis floods and tropical cyclones are the main disasters forecast to uproot large numbers of people with
countries in Asia home to 60 per-cent of the worldrsquos population hit particularly hard according to modeling by the agencies
Eight of the ten countries with the highest levels of displace-ment and housing loss are in South and Southeast Asia
They include India where an average of 23 million people are forced to leave their homes an-nually and China with 13 mil-lion people uprooted each year found the report released on the International Day for Disaster Reduction
The numbers exclude those evacuated ahead of a threat and people displaced by drought or rising seas
Russia and the United States
also feature as countries where disasters could cause large-scale homelessness unless significant progress is made on managing disaster risk the study said
ldquoThe findings underline the challenge we have to reduce the numbers of people affected by di-sastersrdquo said Robert Glasser the UN secretary-generalrsquos special representative for disaster risk
reductionldquoApart from death or severe
injury in a disaster event there is no more crushing blow than the loss of the family homerdquo he added in a statement
The most devastating floods to hit South Asia in a decade killed more than 1400 people this year and focused attention on poor planning for disasters as authori-
ties struggled to assist millions of destitute survivors
Refugees and people uprooted in their own countries are al-ready at record-high numbers said IDMC director Alexan-dra Bilak The new model goes some way toward predicting the risk of disaster-related displace-ment which is an ldquourgent global priorityrdquo she noted

New policy could give Indiarsquos often exploited domestic workers minimum wage and benefits
MUMBAI - Domestic work-ers in India will soon be entitled to a minimum wage and social security benefits according to a draft proposal that activists say does not go far enough to protect these workers and lets employers off the hook
The policy proposes to give domestic workers the right to register themselves as employ-ees guarantees a minimum wage protection from abuse and access to health insurance maternity benefits and pension as well as an opportunity to add skills
The policy will ldquoexplicitly and effectively expand the scope of applicable legislations policies
and schemes to grant domestic workers rights that are enshrined in lawsrdquo a labor ministry state-ment said late on Monday without specifying a timeline
There are at least 67 million domestic workers globally and this number is rising quickly according to the International Labour Organization About 80 percent are women
Indiarsquos rising affluence ur-banization and growing num-bers of working women have spurred increasing demand for domestic workers in the country
Rights activists estimate there are tens of millions of such workers most of them wom-
en who are often underpaid exploited and abused
Many are young largely un-educated women from poor rural areas who live apart from their families
In July a police complaint by a maid saying she was beaten up and locked up by her employers in an upscale neighborhood near New Delhi triggered days of violence
Activists have been cam-paigning for years for the pas-sage of a separate bill to provide domestic workers with a mini-mum monthly salary of 9000 rupees ($140) and benefits in-cluding social security cover and mandatory time off

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta
Marriages of girls are preva-lent in India especially among
Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee
SDIX launched in 2016 says it is the worldrsquos first and only electronic exchange for trading investment-grade diamonds

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said

Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

NEW DELHI - An Indian court last Thursday overturned the con-viction of a dentist couple for the murder of their teenage daughter and the family servant for lack of material evidence their lawyer said
Aarushi Talwar was found with
her throat slit at the family home in the Delhi suburb of Noida in 2008 A day later the body of the servant Hemraj was found on the roof of the house
A trial court convicted the girlrsquos parents Rajesh and Nu-pur Talwar after police alleged
Indian court acquits dentist couple of killing daughterRajesh had murdered his daugh-ter and the servant in a rage when he found them in a compromis-ing situation The couple bothdentists were jailed for life
But a high court overruled the decision saying it was not satis-fi ed with the evidence and or-
dered the couple be freed their lawyer Tanveer Ahmed Mir said
ldquoThe court found no forensic or material evidence to prove that the Talwars had killed their daughterrdquo Mir told reporters out-side a packed courtroom in the northern city of Allahabad
Both parents had denied the murder and insisted they were victims of botched investiga-tions and unfair media coveragedamaging their defense
Aarushirsquos case was labeled as a kind of crime more often as-sociated with rural conserva-tive parts of India where ldquohonor
killingsrdquo are not uncommonEvery twist in the investigation
was extensively reported by the Indian press turning the Talwars into household names
ldquoFinally my family can lead a dignifi ed life The court has up-held the facts and truthrdquo said Rajesh Talwarrsquos sister Vandana after the decision
In 2015 a journalist who cov-ered the murder wrote a book arguing that the couple were in-nocent The double murder case and faulty probe were used as a theme for a Bollywood movie the same year

Death of 11-year-old in India sparks debate on tying welfare to identity card
MUMBAI - The death of an 11-year-old girl in India who campaigners say died of hunger because her familyrsquos ration card was cancelled has sparked debate about linking welfare to identity cards
Activists say Santoshi Kumari died last month after her family was denied subsidised grain be-cause their biometric identity card known as Aadhaar was not linked to their ration card in government records
ldquoThe girlrsquos family told us they had not eaten for six days when Santoshi diedrdquo said Dheeraj Ku-mar with advocacy group Right to Food Campaign
ldquoThey had complained to the local offi cials about the faulty card several times but no
one had helpedrdquoState offi cials in the northern
Indian state of Jharkhand said the girl died of malaria not starvation and the chief minister has ordered an investigation
ldquoWhile there could be doubts over the cause of death we have to ensure that no ration card is de-leted because of non-availability of Aadhaarrdquo state welfare minis-ter Saryu Roy told reporters ldquoIf someone has done this then it is wrongrdquo
More than 11 billion Indian residents have an Aadhaar card which uses fi ngerprints and irin scans to identify them
Activists say large numbers of the poor have been denied welfare benefi ts because of errors in the system
The government made Aadhaar mandatory for welfare pension and employment schemes this year despite a 2014 Supreme Court rul-ing that it cannot be a requirement for welfare programmes
ldquoThese are poor illiterate people with no knowledge of technol-ogy They are suff ering because someone did not (link) the cardproperlyrdquo said Kumar
Kumar said more than 1 million ration cards had been cancelled in Jharkhand one of Indiarsquos poorest states after a directive in April saying they must be linked toAadhaar cards
Last year funding cuts in wel-fare schemes contributed to the starvation deaths of about 600 children in the western state of Maharashtra activists said

LONDON - About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
The risk of displacement could rise as populations swell and the impacts of climate change be-come more severe said a report issued last Friday by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the Geneva-based Internal Dis-placement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)
Earthquakes tsunamis floods and tropical cyclones are the main disasters forecast to uproot large numbers of people with
countries in Asia home to 60 per-cent of the worldrsquos population hit particularly hard according to modeling by the agencies
Eight of the ten countries with the highest levels of displace-ment and housing loss are in South and Southeast Asia
They include India where an average of 23 million people are forced to leave their homes an-nually and China with 13 mil-lion people uprooted each year found the report released on the International Day for Disaster Reduction
The numbers exclude those evacuated ahead of a threat and people displaced by drought or rising seas
Russia and the United States
also feature as countries where disasters could cause large-scale homelessness unless significant progress is made on managing disaster risk the study said
ldquoThe findings underline the challenge we have to reduce the numbers of people affected by di-sastersrdquo said Robert Glasser the UN secretary-generalrsquos special representative for disaster risk
reductionldquoApart from death or severe
injury in a disaster event there is no more crushing blow than the loss of the family homerdquo he added in a statement
The most devastating floods to hit South Asia in a decade killed more than 1400 people this year and focused attention on poor planning for disasters as authori-
ties struggled to assist millions of destitute survivors
Refugees and people uprooted in their own countries are al-ready at record-high numbers said IDMC director Alexan-dra Bilak The new model goes some way toward predicting the risk of disaster-related displace-ment which is an ldquourgent global priorityrdquo she noted
Disasters make 14 million people homeless each year UN
About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
New policy could give Indiarsquos often exploited domestic workers minimum wage and benefits
MUMBAI - Domestic work-ers in India will soon be entitled to a minimum wage and social security benefits according to a draft proposal that activists say does not go far enough to protect these workers and lets employers off the hook
The policy proposes to give domestic workers the right to register themselves as employ-ees guarantees a minimum wage protection from abuse and access to health insurance maternity benefits and pension as well as an opportunity to add skills
The policy will ldquoexplicitly and effectively expand the scope of applicable legislations policies
and schemes to grant domestic workers rights that are enshrined in lawsrdquo a labor ministry state-ment said late on Monday without specifying a timeline
There are at least 67 million domestic workers globally and this number is rising quickly according to the International Labour Organization About 80 percent are women
Indiarsquos rising affluence ur-banization and growing num-bers of working women have spurred increasing demand for domestic workers in the country
Rights activists estimate there are tens of millions of such workers most of them wom-
en who are often underpaid exploited and abused
Many are young largely un-educated women from poor rural areas who live apart from their families
In July a police complaint by a maid saying she was beaten up and locked up by her employers in an upscale neighborhood near New Delhi triggered days of violence
Activists have been cam-paigning for years for the pas-sage of a separate bill to provide domestic workers with a mini-mum monthly salary of 9000 rupees ($140) and benefits in-cluding social security cover and mandatory time off

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta
Marriages of girls are preva-lent in India especially among
Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense
The Supreme Court last Wednesday said ldquosexual in-tercourse with a girl below 18 years of age is rape regardless of whether she is married or notrsquorsquo

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Bollywood TriviaWhich actor debuted with a
double role in ldquoKaho Naa Pyaar Hairdquo
Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating

analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

NEW DELHI - An Indian court last Thursday overturned the con-viction of a dentist couple for the murder of their teenage daughter and the family servant for lack of material evidence their lawyer said
Aarushi Talwar was found with
her throat slit at the family home in the Delhi suburb of Noida in 2008 A day later the body of the servant Hemraj was found on the roof of the house
A trial court convicted the girlrsquos parents Rajesh and Nu-pur Talwar after police alleged
Indian court acquits dentist couple of killing daughterRajesh had murdered his daugh-ter and the servant in a rage when he found them in a compromis-ing situation The couple bothdentists were jailed for life
But a high court overruled the decision saying it was not satis-fi ed with the evidence and or-
dered the couple be freed their lawyer Tanveer Ahmed Mir said
ldquoThe court found no forensic or material evidence to prove that the Talwars had killed their daughterrdquo Mir told reporters out-side a packed courtroom in the northern city of Allahabad
Both parents had denied the murder and insisted they were victims of botched investiga-tions and unfair media coveragedamaging their defense
Aarushirsquos case was labeled as a kind of crime more often as-sociated with rural conserva-tive parts of India where ldquohonor
killingsrdquo are not uncommonEvery twist in the investigation
was extensively reported by the Indian press turning the Talwars into household names
ldquoFinally my family can lead a dignifi ed life The court has up-held the facts and truthrdquo said Rajesh Talwarrsquos sister Vandana after the decision
In 2015 a journalist who cov-ered the murder wrote a book arguing that the couple were in-nocent The double murder case and faulty probe were used as a theme for a Bollywood movie the same year

Death of 11-year-old in India sparks debate on tying welfare to identity card
MUMBAI - The death of an 11-year-old girl in India who campaigners say died of hunger because her familyrsquos ration card was cancelled has sparked debate about linking welfare to identity cards
Activists say Santoshi Kumari died last month after her family was denied subsidised grain be-cause their biometric identity card known as Aadhaar was not linked to their ration card in government records
ldquoThe girlrsquos family told us they had not eaten for six days when Santoshi diedrdquo said Dheeraj Ku-mar with advocacy group Right to Food Campaign
ldquoThey had complained to the local offi cials about the faulty card several times but no
one had helpedrdquoState offi cials in the northern
Indian state of Jharkhand said the girl died of malaria not starvation and the chief minister has ordered an investigation
ldquoWhile there could be doubts over the cause of death we have to ensure that no ration card is de-leted because of non-availability of Aadhaarrdquo state welfare minis-ter Saryu Roy told reporters ldquoIf someone has done this then it is wrongrdquo
More than 11 billion Indian residents have an Aadhaar card which uses fi ngerprints and irin scans to identify them
Activists say large numbers of the poor have been denied welfare benefi ts because of errors in the system
The government made Aadhaar mandatory for welfare pension and employment schemes this year despite a 2014 Supreme Court rul-ing that it cannot be a requirement for welfare programmes
ldquoThese are poor illiterate people with no knowledge of technol-ogy They are suff ering because someone did not (link) the cardproperlyrdquo said Kumar
Kumar said more than 1 million ration cards had been cancelled in Jharkhand one of Indiarsquos poorest states after a directive in April saying they must be linked toAadhaar cards
Last year funding cuts in wel-fare schemes contributed to the starvation deaths of about 600 children in the western state of Maharashtra activists said

LONDON - About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
The risk of displacement could rise as populations swell and the impacts of climate change be-come more severe said a report issued last Friday by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the Geneva-based Internal Dis-placement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)
Earthquakes tsunamis floods and tropical cyclones are the main disasters forecast to uproot large numbers of people with
countries in Asia home to 60 per-cent of the worldrsquos population hit particularly hard according to modeling by the agencies
Eight of the ten countries with the highest levels of displace-ment and housing loss are in South and Southeast Asia
They include India where an average of 23 million people are forced to leave their homes an-nually and China with 13 mil-lion people uprooted each year found the report released on the International Day for Disaster Reduction
The numbers exclude those evacuated ahead of a threat and people displaced by drought or rising seas
Russia and the United States
also feature as countries where disasters could cause large-scale homelessness unless significant progress is made on managing disaster risk the study said
ldquoThe findings underline the challenge we have to reduce the numbers of people affected by di-sastersrdquo said Robert Glasser the UN secretary-generalrsquos special representative for disaster risk
reductionldquoApart from death or severe
injury in a disaster event there is no more crushing blow than the loss of the family homerdquo he added in a statement
The most devastating floods to hit South Asia in a decade killed more than 1400 people this year and focused attention on poor planning for disasters as authori-
ties struggled to assist millions of destitute survivors
Refugees and people uprooted in their own countries are al-ready at record-high numbers said IDMC director Alexan-dra Bilak The new model goes some way toward predicting the risk of disaster-related displace-ment which is an ldquourgent global priorityrdquo she noted

New policy could give Indiarsquos often exploited domestic workers minimum wage and benefits
MUMBAI - Domestic work-ers in India will soon be entitled to a minimum wage and social security benefits according to a draft proposal that activists say does not go far enough to protect these workers and lets employers off the hook
The policy proposes to give domestic workers the right to register themselves as employ-ees guarantees a minimum wage protection from abuse and access to health insurance maternity benefits and pension as well as an opportunity to add skills
The policy will ldquoexplicitly and effectively expand the scope of applicable legislations policies
and schemes to grant domestic workers rights that are enshrined in lawsrdquo a labor ministry state-ment said late on Monday without specifying a timeline
There are at least 67 million domestic workers globally and this number is rising quickly according to the International Labour Organization About 80 percent are women
Indiarsquos rising affluence ur-banization and growing num-bers of working women have spurred increasing demand for domestic workers in the country
Rights activists estimate there are tens of millions of such workers most of them wom-
en who are often underpaid exploited and abused
Many are young largely un-educated women from poor rural areas who live apart from their families
In July a police complaint by a maid saying she was beaten up and locked up by her employers in an upscale neighborhood near New Delhi triggered days of violence
Activists have been cam-paigning for years for the pas-sage of a separate bill to provide domestic workers with a mini-mum monthly salary of 9000 rupees ($140) and benefits in-cluding social security cover and mandatory time off

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta
Marriages of girls are preva-lent in India especially among
Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee
SDIX launched in 2016 says it is the worldrsquos first and only electronic exchange for trading investment-grade diamonds

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said

MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

NEW DELHI - An Indian court last Thursday overturned the con-viction of a dentist couple for the murder of their teenage daughter and the family servant for lack of material evidence their lawyer said
Aarushi Talwar was found with
her throat slit at the family home in the Delhi suburb of Noida in 2008 A day later the body of the servant Hemraj was found on the roof of the house
A trial court convicted the girlrsquos parents Rajesh and Nu-pur Talwar after police alleged
Indian court acquits dentist couple of killing daughterRajesh had murdered his daugh-ter and the servant in a rage when he found them in a compromis-ing situation The couple bothdentists were jailed for life
But a high court overruled the decision saying it was not satis-fi ed with the evidence and or-
dered the couple be freed their lawyer Tanveer Ahmed Mir said
ldquoThe court found no forensic or material evidence to prove that the Talwars had killed their daughterrdquo Mir told reporters out-side a packed courtroom in the northern city of Allahabad
Both parents had denied the murder and insisted they were victims of botched investiga-tions and unfair media coveragedamaging their defense
Aarushirsquos case was labeled as a kind of crime more often as-sociated with rural conserva-tive parts of India where ldquohonor
killingsrdquo are not uncommonEvery twist in the investigation
was extensively reported by the Indian press turning the Talwars into household names
ldquoFinally my family can lead a dignifi ed life The court has up-held the facts and truthrdquo said Rajesh Talwarrsquos sister Vandana after the decision
In 2015 a journalist who cov-ered the murder wrote a book arguing that the couple were in-nocent The double murder case and faulty probe were used as a theme for a Bollywood movie the same year

Death of 11-year-old in India sparks debate on tying welfare to identity card
MUMBAI - The death of an 11-year-old girl in India who campaigners say died of hunger because her familyrsquos ration card was cancelled has sparked debate about linking welfare to identity cards
Activists say Santoshi Kumari died last month after her family was denied subsidised grain be-cause their biometric identity card known as Aadhaar was not linked to their ration card in government records
ldquoThe girlrsquos family told us they had not eaten for six days when Santoshi diedrdquo said Dheeraj Ku-mar with advocacy group Right to Food Campaign
ldquoThey had complained to the local offi cials about the faulty card several times but no
one had helpedrdquoState offi cials in the northern
Indian state of Jharkhand said the girl died of malaria not starvation and the chief minister has ordered an investigation
ldquoWhile there could be doubts over the cause of death we have to ensure that no ration card is de-leted because of non-availability of Aadhaarrdquo state welfare minis-ter Saryu Roy told reporters ldquoIf someone has done this then it is wrongrdquo
More than 11 billion Indian residents have an Aadhaar card which uses fi ngerprints and irin scans to identify them
Activists say large numbers of the poor have been denied welfare benefi ts because of errors in the system
The government made Aadhaar mandatory for welfare pension and employment schemes this year despite a 2014 Supreme Court rul-ing that it cannot be a requirement for welfare programmes
ldquoThese are poor illiterate people with no knowledge of technol-ogy They are suff ering because someone did not (link) the cardproperlyrdquo said Kumar
Kumar said more than 1 million ration cards had been cancelled in Jharkhand one of Indiarsquos poorest states after a directive in April saying they must be linked toAadhaar cards
Last year funding cuts in wel-fare schemes contributed to the starvation deaths of about 600 children in the western state of Maharashtra activists said

LONDON - About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
The risk of displacement could rise as populations swell and the impacts of climate change be-come more severe said a report issued last Friday by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the Geneva-based Internal Dis-placement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)
Earthquakes tsunamis floods and tropical cyclones are the main disasters forecast to uproot large numbers of people with
countries in Asia home to 60 per-cent of the worldrsquos population hit particularly hard according to modeling by the agencies
Eight of the ten countries with the highest levels of displace-ment and housing loss are in South and Southeast Asia
They include India where an average of 23 million people are forced to leave their homes an-nually and China with 13 mil-lion people uprooted each year found the report released on the International Day for Disaster Reduction
The numbers exclude those evacuated ahead of a threat and people displaced by drought or rising seas
Russia and the United States
also feature as countries where disasters could cause large-scale homelessness unless significant progress is made on managing disaster risk the study said
ldquoThe findings underline the challenge we have to reduce the numbers of people affected by di-sastersrdquo said Robert Glasser the UN secretary-generalrsquos special representative for disaster risk
reductionldquoApart from death or severe
injury in a disaster event there is no more crushing blow than the loss of the family homerdquo he added in a statement
The most devastating floods to hit South Asia in a decade killed more than 1400 people this year and focused attention on poor planning for disasters as authori-
ties struggled to assist millions of destitute survivors
Refugees and people uprooted in their own countries are al-ready at record-high numbers said IDMC director Alexan-dra Bilak The new model goes some way toward predicting the risk of disaster-related displace-ment which is an ldquourgent global priorityrdquo she noted
Disasters make 14 million people homeless each year UN
About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
New policy could give Indiarsquos often exploited domestic workers minimum wage and benefits
MUMBAI - Domestic work-ers in India will soon be entitled to a minimum wage and social security benefits according to a draft proposal that activists say does not go far enough to protect these workers and lets employers off the hook
The policy proposes to give domestic workers the right to register themselves as employ-ees guarantees a minimum wage protection from abuse and access to health insurance maternity benefits and pension as well as an opportunity to add skills
The policy will ldquoexplicitly and effectively expand the scope of applicable legislations policies
and schemes to grant domestic workers rights that are enshrined in lawsrdquo a labor ministry state-ment said late on Monday without specifying a timeline
There are at least 67 million domestic workers globally and this number is rising quickly according to the International Labour Organization About 80 percent are women
Indiarsquos rising affluence ur-banization and growing num-bers of working women have spurred increasing demand for domestic workers in the country
Rights activists estimate there are tens of millions of such workers most of them wom-
en who are often underpaid exploited and abused
Many are young largely un-educated women from poor rural areas who live apart from their families
In July a police complaint by a maid saying she was beaten up and locked up by her employers in an upscale neighborhood near New Delhi triggered days of violence
Activists have been cam-paigning for years for the pas-sage of a separate bill to provide domestic workers with a mini-mum monthly salary of 9000 rupees ($140) and benefits in-cluding social security cover and mandatory time off

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta
Marriages of girls are preva-lent in India especially among
Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Bollywood TriviaWhich actor debuted with a
double role in ldquoKaho Naa Pyaar Hairdquo
Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

NEW DELHI - An Indian court last Thursday overturned the con-viction of a dentist couple for the murder of their teenage daughter and the family servant for lack of material evidence their lawyer said
Aarushi Talwar was found with
her throat slit at the family home in the Delhi suburb of Noida in 2008 A day later the body of the servant Hemraj was found on the roof of the house
A trial court convicted the girlrsquos parents Rajesh and Nu-pur Talwar after police alleged
Indian court acquits dentist couple of killing daughterRajesh had murdered his daugh-ter and the servant in a rage when he found them in a compromis-ing situation The couple bothdentists were jailed for life
But a high court overruled the decision saying it was not satis-fi ed with the evidence and or-
dered the couple be freed their lawyer Tanveer Ahmed Mir said
ldquoThe court found no forensic or material evidence to prove that the Talwars had killed their daughterrdquo Mir told reporters out-side a packed courtroom in the northern city of Allahabad
Both parents had denied the murder and insisted they were victims of botched investiga-tions and unfair media coveragedamaging their defense
Aarushirsquos case was labeled as a kind of crime more often as-sociated with rural conserva-tive parts of India where ldquohonor
killingsrdquo are not uncommonEvery twist in the investigation
was extensively reported by the Indian press turning the Talwars into household names
ldquoFinally my family can lead a dignifi ed life The court has up-held the facts and truthrdquo said Rajesh Talwarrsquos sister Vandana after the decision
In 2015 a journalist who cov-ered the murder wrote a book arguing that the couple were in-nocent The double murder case and faulty probe were used as a theme for a Bollywood movie the same year

Death of 11-year-old in India sparks debate on tying welfare to identity card
MUMBAI - The death of an 11-year-old girl in India who campaigners say died of hunger because her familyrsquos ration card was cancelled has sparked debate about linking welfare to identity cards
Activists say Santoshi Kumari died last month after her family was denied subsidised grain be-cause their biometric identity card known as Aadhaar was not linked to their ration card in government records
ldquoThe girlrsquos family told us they had not eaten for six days when Santoshi diedrdquo said Dheeraj Ku-mar with advocacy group Right to Food Campaign
ldquoThey had complained to the local offi cials about the faulty card several times but no
one had helpedrdquoState offi cials in the northern
Indian state of Jharkhand said the girl died of malaria not starvation and the chief minister has ordered an investigation
ldquoWhile there could be doubts over the cause of death we have to ensure that no ration card is de-leted because of non-availability of Aadhaarrdquo state welfare minis-ter Saryu Roy told reporters ldquoIf someone has done this then it is wrongrdquo
More than 11 billion Indian residents have an Aadhaar card which uses fi ngerprints and irin scans to identify them
Activists say large numbers of the poor have been denied welfare benefi ts because of errors in the system
The government made Aadhaar mandatory for welfare pension and employment schemes this year despite a 2014 Supreme Court rul-ing that it cannot be a requirement for welfare programmes
ldquoThese are poor illiterate people with no knowledge of technol-ogy They are suff ering because someone did not (link) the cardproperlyrdquo said Kumar
Kumar said more than 1 million ration cards had been cancelled in Jharkhand one of Indiarsquos poorest states after a directive in April saying they must be linked toAadhaar cards
Last year funding cuts in wel-fare schemes contributed to the starvation deaths of about 600 children in the western state of Maharashtra activists said

LONDON - About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
The risk of displacement could rise as populations swell and the impacts of climate change be-come more severe said a report issued last Friday by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the Geneva-based Internal Dis-placement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)
Earthquakes tsunamis floods and tropical cyclones are the main disasters forecast to uproot large numbers of people with
countries in Asia home to 60 per-cent of the worldrsquos population hit particularly hard according to modeling by the agencies
Eight of the ten countries with the highest levels of displace-ment and housing loss are in South and Southeast Asia
They include India where an average of 23 million people are forced to leave their homes an-nually and China with 13 mil-lion people uprooted each year found the report released on the International Day for Disaster Reduction
The numbers exclude those evacuated ahead of a threat and people displaced by drought or rising seas
Russia and the United States
also feature as countries where disasters could cause large-scale homelessness unless significant progress is made on managing disaster risk the study said
ldquoThe findings underline the challenge we have to reduce the numbers of people affected by di-sastersrdquo said Robert Glasser the UN secretary-generalrsquos special representative for disaster risk
reductionldquoApart from death or severe
injury in a disaster event there is no more crushing blow than the loss of the family homerdquo he added in a statement
The most devastating floods to hit South Asia in a decade killed more than 1400 people this year and focused attention on poor planning for disasters as authori-
ties struggled to assist millions of destitute survivors
Refugees and people uprooted in their own countries are al-ready at record-high numbers said IDMC director Alexan-dra Bilak The new model goes some way toward predicting the risk of disaster-related displace-ment which is an ldquourgent global priorityrdquo she noted

New policy could give Indiarsquos often exploited domestic workers minimum wage and benefits
MUMBAI - Domestic work-ers in India will soon be entitled to a minimum wage and social security benefits according to a draft proposal that activists say does not go far enough to protect these workers and lets employers off the hook
The policy proposes to give domestic workers the right to register themselves as employ-ees guarantees a minimum wage protection from abuse and access to health insurance maternity benefits and pension as well as an opportunity to add skills
The policy will ldquoexplicitly and effectively expand the scope of applicable legislations policies
and schemes to grant domestic workers rights that are enshrined in lawsrdquo a labor ministry state-ment said late on Monday without specifying a timeline
There are at least 67 million domestic workers globally and this number is rising quickly according to the International Labour Organization About 80 percent are women
Indiarsquos rising affluence ur-banization and growing num-bers of working women have spurred increasing demand for domestic workers in the country
Rights activists estimate there are tens of millions of such workers most of them wom-
en who are often underpaid exploited and abused
Many are young largely un-educated women from poor rural areas who live apart from their families
In July a police complaint by a maid saying she was beaten up and locked up by her employers in an upscale neighborhood near New Delhi triggered days of violence
Activists have been cam-paigning for years for the pas-sage of a separate bill to provide domestic workers with a mini-mum monthly salary of 9000 rupees ($140) and benefits in-cluding social security cover and mandatory time off

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta
Marriages of girls are preva-lent in India especially among
Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee
SDIX launched in 2016 says it is the worldrsquos first and only electronic exchange for trading investment-grade diamonds

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

By Sudeep Roy MD
A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

LONDON - About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
The risk of displacement could rise as populations swell and the impacts of climate change be-come more severe said a report issued last Friday by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the Geneva-based Internal Dis-placement Monitoring Centre (IDMC)
Earthquakes tsunamis floods and tropical cyclones are the main disasters forecast to uproot large numbers of people with
countries in Asia home to 60 per-cent of the worldrsquos population hit particularly hard according to modeling by the agencies
Eight of the ten countries with the highest levels of displace-ment and housing loss are in South and Southeast Asia
They include India where an average of 23 million people are forced to leave their homes an-nually and China with 13 mil-lion people uprooted each year found the report released on the International Day for Disaster Reduction
The numbers exclude those evacuated ahead of a threat and people displaced by drought or rising seas
Russia and the United States
also feature as countries where disasters could cause large-scale homelessness unless significant progress is made on managing disaster risk the study said
ldquoThe findings underline the challenge we have to reduce the numbers of people affected by di-sastersrdquo said Robert Glasser the UN secretary-generalrsquos special representative for disaster risk
reductionldquoApart from death or severe
injury in a disaster event there is no more crushing blow than the loss of the family homerdquo he added in a statement
The most devastating floods to hit South Asia in a decade killed more than 1400 people this year and focused attention on poor planning for disasters as authori-
ties struggled to assist millions of destitute survivors
Refugees and people uprooted in their own countries are al-ready at record-high numbers said IDMC director Alexan-dra Bilak The new model goes some way toward predicting the risk of disaster-related displace-ment which is an ldquourgent global priorityrdquo she noted
Disasters make 14 million people homeless each year UN
About 14 million people are being made homeless on average each year as a result of sudden disasters such as floods and storms new figures show
New policy could give Indiarsquos often exploited domestic workers minimum wage and benefits
MUMBAI - Domestic work-ers in India will soon be entitled to a minimum wage and social security benefits according to a draft proposal that activists say does not go far enough to protect these workers and lets employers off the hook
The policy proposes to give domestic workers the right to register themselves as employ-ees guarantees a minimum wage protection from abuse and access to health insurance maternity benefits and pension as well as an opportunity to add skills
The policy will ldquoexplicitly and effectively expand the scope of applicable legislations policies
and schemes to grant domestic workers rights that are enshrined in lawsrdquo a labor ministry state-ment said late on Monday without specifying a timeline
There are at least 67 million domestic workers globally and this number is rising quickly according to the International Labour Organization About 80 percent are women
Indiarsquos rising affluence ur-banization and growing num-bers of working women have spurred increasing demand for domestic workers in the country
Rights activists estimate there are tens of millions of such workers most of them wom-
en who are often underpaid exploited and abused
Many are young largely un-educated women from poor rural areas who live apart from their families
In July a police complaint by a maid saying she was beaten up and locked up by her employers in an upscale neighborhood near New Delhi triggered days of violence
Activists have been cam-paigning for years for the pas-sage of a separate bill to provide domestic workers with a mini-mum monthly salary of 9000 rupees ($140) and benefits in-cluding social security cover and mandatory time off

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta
Marriages of girls are preva-lent in India especially among
Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense
The Supreme Court last Wednesday said ldquosexual in-tercourse with a girl below 18 years of age is rape regardless of whether she is married or notrsquorsquo

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee
SDIX launched in 2016 says it is the worldrsquos first and only electronic exchange for trading investment-grade diamonds

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item

Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo
Government officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from public health officials who link excessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta

Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo
Married men who see their relationship with their spouse improve over the years may also experience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta
Marriages of girls are preva-lent in India especially among
Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Bollywood TriviaWhich actor debuted with a
double role in ldquoKaho Naa Pyaar Hairdquo
Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating

analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

ISLAMABAD - A Pakistani anti-corruption court on Thurs-day indicted ousted Prime Minis-ter Nawaz Sharif and his daugh-ter over allegations linked to ownership of London properties opening a trial that could see the former leader jailed
The Sharifs have called the corruption proceedings against them a conspiracy hinting at in-tervention by the powerful mili-tary but opponents have hailed it
as a rare example of the rich and powerful being held accountable
Sharif 67 resigned in July after the Supreme Court dis-qualifi ed him from holding of-fi ce over an undeclared source of income but the veteran leader maintains his grip on the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz(PML-N) party
Sharif said there was no prec-edent for indicting someone in his absence ldquoI hope I will get
Pakistani anti-corruption court indicts ousted PM Sharifjusticerdquo he told reporters in Lon-don in remarks broadcast by lo-cal Geo TV adding that he would travel home to attend the next court hearing
Judge Bashir Ahmad of the court that tries cases registered and investigated by an anti-graft body the National Account-ability Bureau (NAB) indicted Sharif his daughter Maryam Sharif and her husband Muham-mad Safdar They all pleaded not
guiltyMaryam and Safdar were pres-
ent in court but Sharif who was prime minister twice in the 1990s sent a representative while he tends to his wife as she undergoes cancer treatment in Britain
Maryam said in the court that the charges were unfounded and baseless
ldquoThis will go down in history as a travesty of justicerdquo she said
Outside the court Maryam again hinted at military interfer-ence in the judicial process by saying the trial was ldquoa repeat of
1999rdquo the year her father was toppled in a military coup led by former army chief Pervez Musharraf
It is not clear if she was com-paring the trial to the coup or subsequent corruption accusa-tions and investigations that Musharraf ordered into Sharif
Sharifrsquos disqualifi cation stem-med from the Panama Papers leaks in 2016 that appeared to show that his daughter and two sons owned off shore holding companies registered in the Brit-ish Virgin Islands and used them to buy posh fl ats in London

India may allow female haj pilgrims to travel without male guardian
MUMBAI - Indian women over the age of 45 and traveling in groups of four will be able to go for the Islamic haj pilgrimage without a male guardian next year if the government adopts proposed reforms
Women meeting these criteria will no longer have to be accom-panied by a mahram or close male relative such as a father husband brother or son a gov-ernment-appointment panel rec-ommended in the countryrsquos fi rst haj policy review
ldquoThe mahram rule was there from the very beginning for
women - in case they face any diffi culty while traveling it can be taken care ofrdquo said Maq-sood Ahmed Khan of the Haj Committee of India a govern-ment body which organizes thepilgrimages
Nearly half of an estimated 170000 pilgrims who went for the annual religious celebration in Saudi Arabia from India this year were women offi cials said
The panel of bureaucrats and intellectuals was appointed by the ministry of minority aff airs to review Indiarsquos haj policy for the fi rst time
Offi cials from the ministry which will decide whether to adopt the recommendations were not available for comment
The policy would cover the next fi ve years from 2018 and is in line with Saudi Arabiarsquos haj requirements
Womenrsquos rights campaigners welcomed the proposal but said it did not go far enough
If the new rule is implemented solo women will no longer have to pay private tour operators to provide them with a mahram for a fee of 10000 Indian rupees ($15329) campaigners said

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages

she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last

She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Bollywood TriviaWhich actor debuted with a
double role in ldquoKaho Naa Pyaar Hairdquo
Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

By Sudeep Roy MD
A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

LONDON - Pollution caused nine million deaths in 2015 - three times more than AIDS tu-berculosis and malaria combined - scientists said on Thursday calling for governments in poor countries to act
India fared worst with 25 million people dying early be-cause of pollution followed by China with 18 million deaths according to The Lancet Com-mission on Pollution and Health a two-year initiative seeking to highlight the issue
One in six of all deaths world-wide are caused by pollution and the vast majority occur in de-veloping countries the report in
The Lancet medical journal saidldquoWith globalisation mining
and manufacturing shifted to poorer countries where envi-ronmental regulations and en-forcement can be laxrdquo said Karti Sandilya one of the authors and an adviser to environmental group Pure Earth
ldquoPeople in poorer countries - like construction workers in New Delhi - are more exposed to air pollution and less able to pro-tect themselves from exposure as they walk bike or ride the bus to workplaces that may also bepollutedrdquo
In contrast many people in developed countries commute to air-conditioned offi ces in air-conditioned cars he told the
Thomson Reuters Foundation in an email
Exposure to high levels of air pollution especially over many years can aff ect human respira-tory and infl ammatory systems and can lead to heart disease
stoke and lung cancerBillions in developing coun-
tries cook on open fi res with wood or coal exposing people - mainly women and children - to dangerous fumes
But rapidly industrialising
nations are worst aff ected and regulation could help to pro-tect health as they develop said the commission which brings together more than 40 interna-tional health and environmental authors

Muslims flee Indian village after singer killedin argument with Hindu priest
NEW DELHI - At least 200 Muslims have fl ed their village in the western Indian state of Rajasthan after a Hindu priest and his friends were alleged to have killed a Muslim folk singer late last month police said on Wednesday
Trouble erupted in Dantal vil-lage near the India-Pakistan bor-der on Sept 27 when a Hindu priest accused folk singer Ah-mad Khan of making mistakes while reciting hymns to evoke a Hindu goddess
Khan 45 was a member of the Langa Manganiyar commu-nity that has been singing Hindu religious songs and spiritual verses in temples and at festivals for generations
The priest suggested chang-es to the hymn leading to anargument
Police said the priest Ramesh Suthar and his friends then broke Khanrsquos musical instru-ments and killed him
ldquoThe news of the murder trig-gered unrest between Hindus and Muslims who have been living together for generationsrdquo said Gaurav Yadav a senior police offi cer investigating the case
He did not say how Khan was killed but said Suthar had been arrested The priestrsquos accomplic-es had fl ed Yadav said
Two of Sutharrsquos family mem-bers said he was in shock andrefused to talk about the case
Government authorities had sent paramilitary forces to the area but the Muslims fearing clashes refused to return home
ldquoFor one small mistake the Hindus killed my brotherrdquo said
Rakha Khan the dead singerrsquos cousin ldquoWe canrsquot live in the same village ever againrdquo
Rakha Khan said they had sought refuge in a school and that the state government offi ce and other local authorities were providing them with food
The attack is the latest in a series of incidents targeting the minority Muslim community in states ruled by Prime Min-ister Narendra Modirsquos Hindunationalist party
Since his Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014 hardline Hindu groups and cow protection vigilantes have car-ried out numerous attacks on Muslims accused of eating beef or killing cows
Many Hindus believe cows are sacred and killing them is banned in some states

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta

47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Bollywood TriviaWhich actor debuted with a
double role in ldquoKaho Naa Pyaar Hairdquo
Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

By Sudeep Roy MD
A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta

Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters

47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Bollywood TriviaWhich actor debuted with a
double role in ldquoKaho Naa Pyaar Hairdquo
Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas
ldquoChina will never develop it-
self at the expense of other coun-triesrdquo Lu told a regular briefi ng on Thursday ldquoAt the same time we will never give up our justly deserved rights and interestsrdquo
Healthy relations between China and the United States are good for the people of both coun-tries and are expected by theAsia-Pacifi c region he added
Tillerson did not say what he meant by creating an alternative to Chinese infrastructure fi nanc-ing but said the Trump adminis-tration had begun a ldquoquiet conver-sationrdquo with some emerging East Asian democracies at a summit in
AugustHe said Chinese fi nancing was
saddling countries with ldquoenor-mousrdquo debts and failing to create jobs
ldquoWe think itrsquos important that we begin to develop some means of countering that with alternative fi nancing measuresrdquo
ldquoWe will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China off ers but countries have to de-cide what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their econo-mies and wersquove had those discus-sions with them as wellrdquo he said

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta

Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters

47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to

developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo
Married men who see their relationship with their spouse improve over the years may also experience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

WASHINGTON - US Secre-tary of State Rex Tillerson said before a visit to India next week that the Trump administration wanted to ldquodramatically deepenrdquo cooperation with New Delhi see-ing it as a key partner in the face of negative Chinese infl uence in Asia
Speaking on Wednesday less than a month before President Donald Trump is due to make his fi rst state visit to China Tillerson said the United States had begun to discuss creating alternatives to Chinese infrastructure fi nancing in Asia
In another comment likely to upset Beijing he said Washing-ton saw room to invite others including Australia to join US-India-Japan security cooperation something Beijing has opposed as an attempt by democracies to gang up on it
The remarks coincide with the start of a week-long Chinese Communist Party congress at which President Xi Jinping is seeking to further consolidate his power
ldquoThe United States seeks con-structive relations with China but we will not shrink from Chinarsquos challenges to the rules-based or-der and where China subverts
the sovereignty of neighboring countries and disadvantages the US and our friendsrdquo Tillerson told the Center for Strategic andInternational Studies think tank
ldquoIndia and the United States should be in the business of equip-ping other countries to defend their sovereignty build greater connectivity and have a louder voice in a regional architecture that promotes their interests and develops their economiesrdquoTillerson added
The US decision to expand re-lations with India almost certainly will upset Indiarsquos rival Pakistan where Tillerson also will stop next week said a senior State Department offi cial speaking on condition of anonymity
Pakistan was the main US ally in South Asia for decades but US offi cials are frustrated with what they charge has been Paki-stanrsquos failure to cut support for the Taliban insurgency in Afghani-stan where the administration wants India to play a bigger role in economic development
As part of a South Asia strat-egy unveiled by Trump in Au-gust Tillerson is expected to press Islamabad which denies aiding the Taliban to take stron-ger steps against extremists and
US wants stronger India ties given Chinarsquos rise Tillersonallied groups and intensify eff orts to pressure them to agree to peace talks with Kabul
ldquoWe expect Pakistan to take decisive action against terrorist groups based there that threaten its own people and the broaderregionrdquo Tillerson said
Trump has threatened further cuts in US aid to Pakistan if it fails to cooperate
China a strategic rival to the United States and India is also vi-tal to Trumprsquos eff orts to roll back North Korearsquos eff orts to create nuclear-armed missiles capable of reaching the United States an is-sue expected to top the agenda in Trumprsquos Nov 8-10 Beijing visit
A senior State Department of-fi cial defended the timing of the speech saying Tillerson also said he wanted a constructiverelationship with China
ldquoFor many decades the United States has supported Chinarsquos riserdquo said the offi cial ldquoWersquove also supported Indiarsquos rise But those two countries have risen very diff erentlyrdquo
In Beijing foreign ministry spokesman Lu Kang said China hoped the United States could abandon bias when viewing its actions overseas

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta
Marriages of girls are preva-lent in India especially among
Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters
Last Thursday sociologist Ranjana Kumari welcomed the court verdict and said it had re-moved a confl icting position in Indian laws She said according to the 2011 government census the percentage of below 18 mar-riages in India was as high as
47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense
The Supreme Court last Wednesday said ldquosexual in-tercourse with a girl below 18 years of age is rape regardless of whether she is married or notrsquorsquo

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

GENEVA - Nearly 340000 Rohingya children are living in squalid conditions in Bangladesh camps where they lack enough food clean water and health care the United Nations Chil-drenrsquos Fund (UNICEF) said on Friday
Up to 12000 more children join them every week fleeing violence or hunger in Myanmar often still traumatised by atroci-ties they witnessed it said in a report ldquoOutcast and Desperaterdquo
In all almost 600000 Ro-hingya refugees have left north-ern Rakhine state since Aug 25 when the UN says the Myan-mar army began a campaign of
ldquoethnic cleansingrdquo following insurgent attacks
ldquoThis isnrsquot going to be a short-term it isnrsquot going to end any-time soonrdquo Simon Ingram the reportrsquos author and a UNICEF official told a news briefing
ldquoSo it is absolutely critical that the borders remain open and that protection for children is given and equally that children born in Bangladesh have their birth registeredrdquo
Most Rohingya are stateless in Myanmar and many fled without papers he said adding of the newborns in Bangladesh ldquoWith-out an identity they have no chance of ever assimilating into any society effectivelyrdquo
Safe drinking water and toilets
are in ldquodesperately short supplyrdquo in the chaotic teeming camps and settlements Ingram said af-ter spending two weeks in Coxrsquos Bazar Bangladesh
ldquoIn a sense itrsquos no surprise that they must truly see this place as a hell on earthrdquo he said
One in five Rohingya children under the age of five is estimat-ed to be acutely malnourished requiring medical attention he said
ldquoThere is a very very se-
vere risk of outbreaks of water-borne diseases diarrhoea and quite conceivably cholera in th longer-termrdquo he added
UNICEF is providing clean water and toilets and has helped vaccinate children against mea-sles and cholera which can be deadly he said
The agency is seeking $76 mil-lion under a $434 million UN appeal for Rohingya refugees for six months but is only 7 percent funded he said speaking ahead
of a pledging conference in Geneva on Monday
UN agencies are still demand-ing access to northern Rakhine where an unknown number of Rohingya remain despite UN reports that many villages and food stocks have been burned
ldquoWe repeat the call for the need for protection of all children in Rakhine state this is an absolute fundamental requirement The atrocities against children and civilians must endrdquo Ingram said

Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

29Saturday October 21 2017 India Bulletin
NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

By Sudeep Roy MD
A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta

Top Indian court rules sex with wife younger than 18 is rapethe rural poor The govern-ment estimates that child mar-riages in rural areas were threetimes higher than in urbancenters

47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said
Indiarsquos Parliament raised the age of consent to 18 years in 2013 but no change was made in a legal exception It said if a married girl was over 15 years of age her husband could not be charged with any off ense

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee
SDIX launched in 2016 says it is the worldrsquos first and only electronic exchange for trading investment-grade diamonds

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

29Saturday October 21 2017 India Bulletin
NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

By Sudeep Roy MD
A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

NEW DELHI (AP) - Indiarsquos top court has ruled that having sexual intercourse with a wife younger than 18 is rape a deci-sion that activists say is an im-portant step toward ending child marriages
Indian law says a woman must be at least 18 to marry and con-sent to sex but there are excep-tions and a man was permitted to have sex even forcibly with a girl as young as 15 as long as
she was his wife The Supreme Court ruled last
Wednesday that sexual inter-course with a girl younger than 18 is rape ldquoHuman rights of a girl child are very much alive and kicking whether she is mar-ried or not and deserve recogni-tion and acceptancersquorsquo said Jus-tices Madan Lokur and Deepak Gupta

47 percent Lalitha Kumaramangalam
former chairperson of the Na-tional Commission for Women said the ruling ldquowill act as adeterrent to parentsrsquorsquo
Meenakshi Ganguly South Asia Director for Human Rights Watch said the court decision would help ending the practice of early marriages
She also called for a free ac-cess to secondary education for girls ldquoAlso parents often say they donrsquot like to send their daughters to school and get them married to protect them
from sexual abuse India has enacted a law against child sex abuse but should do much more to enforce the protectionsrsquorsquo she said

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found

Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

MUMBAI - Maharashtra In-diarsquos second-biggest cotton pro-ducing state has stepped up sei-zures of ldquounauthorised pesticidesrdquo after chemical poisoning killed at least 30 farmers in three months a government minister told Reuters last Friday
The western state is investigat-ing the deaths of the cotton farm-ers and labourers as a dry spell led to an outbreak of crop-eating bollworm pests that thrive in such weather
ldquoWe have set up a committee to investigate the deaths caused by poisoningrdquo Maharashtra Agricul-ture Minister Pandurang Fundkar said in an interview ldquoWe are also seizing stocks of unauthorised pesticidesrdquo
The use of spurious pesticides made secretly and sometimes given names that resemble the originals has been rising in India Counterfeits account for up to 30 percent of the more than $4 billion annual pesticide market a govern-ment-endorsed study showed
Fundkar said it was also pos-sible some farmers and workers were not following prescribed methods while spraying pesti-cides which led them to inhale or ingest fatal quantities
Pesticide use has risen as ge-netically modified (GM) cot-ton seeds approved in early 2000s have started to lose efficacy farmers and government officials say
GM cotton seeds developed by
US giant Monsanto have helped transform India into the worldrsquos top producer and second-largest exporter of the fibre
ldquoSince the pest attack was se-vere this year farmers were ag-gressively spraying pesticides Some of the pesticides were not recommended and poisonousrdquo said a top Maharashtra farm offi-cial who declined to be named as
he was not authorised to speak to media
Some of the more than 600 farmers and labourers treated for pesticide poisoning over the past few months are still in hospital he added
An independent fact-finding team that visited the state this week said farmers desperate to save their investments were
resorting to ldquovarious misadven-turesrdquo including use of larger dosages than recommended
ldquoThe real culprit is the poi-son that has been allowed to be registered manufactured sold and usedrdquo it said in a statement ldquoThe only far-reaching way by which the current problem can be tackled is by eliminating these toxinsrdquo

Supreme Court bans firecracker sales in Delhi ahead of peak pollution season
NEW DELHI - The Supreme Court last Monday temporarily banned the sale of firecrackers in and around the capital ahead of Diwali the Hindu festival of lights as it looks to prevent a repeat of severe air pollution that forced school closures last year
New Delhirsquos air quality has hit ldquovery unhealthyrdquo levels US Embassy data shows This is often blamed on burning of un-wanted vegetation on farms in neighbouring states usual at this time of year worsened by fumes from fireworks
The ban takes effect immedi-ately and will run until Nov 1
said a panel of Supreme Court judges headed by Justice Arjan Kumar Sikri adding its impact on the regionrsquos air quality would have to be examined after the festival
ldquoAll temporary licenses to sell firecrackers stand cancelledrdquo said Haripriya Padmanabhan a lawyer representing the group that sought the ban
ldquoPeople who had already pur-chased crackers will be able to burst them Hopefully they wonrsquot do thatrdquo she told Asian News International a partner of Reuters Television
Diwali traditionally ush-ered in with the setting off of
firecrackers mainly by Indiarsquos majority Hindu community falls on October 19 this year
The government welcomed the move with Environment Minister Harsh Vardhan request-ing people to abide by the order
But others including Priti Gandhi a leader from Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos Hin-du nationalist party saw it as an attack on tradition and Hindu culture
ldquoWe Indians will protest and burn crackersrdquo wrote one Twit-ter user Ishkaran Bhandari ldquoWe will uphold our culture traditions and celebrate Diwalirdquo

Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to

developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo
Married men who see their relationship with their spouse improve over the years may also experience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

Aditya Pancholi takes legal action against Kangana
With a new leaflet being opened as Hrithik Roshan for the first time reacted to the much talked about controversy with co-actor Kangana Ranaut the scan-dal has also dragged names of other actors who were involved in the actressrsquo life One among them was Aditya Pancholi who was at the receiving end when Kangana Ranaut passed remarks about his behaviour as well as made comments on his family on a show being aired on national television Not the one to be si-lent the actor has now taken legal action against the actress
Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo
Married men who see their relationship with their spouse improve over the years may also experience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

Reportedly Aditya Pancholi has pressed charges against Kangana Ranaut under sections 499 and 500 [defamation and punishment for defamation] at the Andheri Court Neither Ad-ityarsquos lawyers Zameer Khan and Shreya Srivastav nor Kangana Rananutrsquos lawyer Rizwan Sid-diqui has divulged much details
Talking about this Aditya Pancholi also revealed that they had initially sent a legal notice to Kangana and her team demand-ing an unconditional apology on the same national television plat-form where the actress had made derogatory remarks against him However Pancholi mentioned that they were dissatisfied with their response to the legal notice and what left the actor even more upset was the fact that Kangana Ranautrsquos sister Rangoli went on to drag his wife son and his daughter into the scandal This prompted him and his wife Zari-na Wahab to file a civil and crim-inal defamation case against her

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo
Married men who see their relationship with their spouse improve over the years may also experience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

Television actor Ram Kapoor who has also featured in some Bollywood films seems to have landed in a spot of trouble In fact we hear that a Colaba- based firm has filed a criminal complaint against the actor for non-payment of a loan that he had taken As per reports Ram Kapoor had borrowed a sum of Rs 35 lakhs from Colaba-based Mavi Business Ventures LLP an export firm under the pre-text that he required the amount urgently for personal reasons However months after taking the loan that was to be settled within a month Kapoor seems to have ignored the matter
Following this Mavi LLP approached the Colaba police who directed the firm to lodge a criminal complaint with the court and a criminal complaint against the actor was filed with the Esplanade court in Septem-ber If that wasnrsquot all it is also learnt that earlier this year in May Link Legal Services that handles the legal issues for Mavi LLP had even sent Ram Kapoor a legal notice asking him to repay the loaned money at the earliest failing which the actor was told criminal proceedings would be pursued against him
If that wasnrsquot all in the com-plaint filed at the Esplanade court Mavi LLP also stated that the said sum was moved from its current account with HDFCrsquos Colaba branch to Kapoorrsquos account in Stan-dard Chartered Bankrsquos Breach Candy branch

Its 2017 yet its not uncom-mon to see that many dont have the liberty to pursue the dream of their choice Secret Super-star helmed by first-time direc-tor Advait Chandan tells one such extra-ordinary story and emphasizes that exceptional talent cant be hidden or sup-pressed - its bound to come to the fore some day
An Aamir Khan production is special Recall the films the reputed production house has produced over the years The expectations from Secret Su-perstar are obviously sky-high Does it live up to those expecta-tions Does Advait deliver as a storyteller Lets get to the point right away Secret Superstar is one of the finest films of the year no two opinions about it
Secret Superstar narrates the story of an aspiring singer who faces roadblocks in fulfilling her dream Insia [Zaira Wasim] is a school-going girl based in Va-dodara She has a lovely voice and dreams of being a top sing-er Her mother Najma [Meher Vij] supports Insias dream but
her father Farookh [Raj Arjun] is thoroughly against the idea due to his conservative mind-set He tries everything - from force to destroying Insias guitar - to stop her from fulfilling her dreams She however remains adamant
Insia takes to the internet and posts videos of her singing Wearing a burkha she makes sure only her eyes are visible in order to keep her identity con-cealed Shes taken by surprise when her videos go viral Enter Shakti Kumar [Aamir Khan] a brash lecherous but success-ful music composer Insia gets a chance to meet Shakti What happens next forms the rest of the story
To start with Secret Superstar hits the right notes The goings-on make you laugh and also leave you moist-eyed in certain scenes In fact you go through varied emotions in those 230 hours In todays times when theres a demand from certain sections of audiences to have fast-paced films with a runtime of less than 2 hours or 2 hours Secret Superstar neither moves too swiftly nor drags - the pace is just perfect
The characters are neatly in-troduced and the storyteller remains faithful to the mate-rial Certain moments stay with you even after the culmination of the movie The presence of the father shakes you up and one can feel the tension The penultimate 20-25 minutes are outstanding and give you goosebumps Also one of the high-points of the movie is the focus on the mother-daughter relationship The friendship bond between Zaira and Tirth her school friend is very cute
Advait handles the subject with utmost sensitivity Not only does the film mirror the conservative attitude that exists in our society but also makes a comment on women empower-ment The screenplay is uncom-plicated while the dialogue are
simple and conversationalAny glitches Not really ex-
cept that the middle of the sec-ond hour couldve been tighter Thats it
Zaira wins you over with a heartfelt act Shes in splen-did form in Secret Superstar It is surely a worthy follow up to her sparkling act in Dangal Her emotional outburst before the climax of the movie or the speech towards the final mo-ments prove that shes a pow-erhouse of talent Aamir is the catalyst in Zairas journey and he enacts the of over the top loud and brash character flawlessly He lets Zaira shine as he rele-gates himself to the background Yet it must be mentioned only he couldve essayed the character with such aplomb
Meher is terrific and her per-
formance is one of the key rea-sons why the character stands out Raj Arjun is tremendous Tirth has an important character and he is utmost natural Far-rukh Jaffer [Badi Appa] is su-perb in a significant role Kabir Sajid [as Insias brother Guddu] is adorable
The soundtrack [Amit Trive-di] is soothing and gels wonder-fully with the genre of the film Main Kaun Hoon is the best of the lot while Meri Pyaari Ammi is lovely Cinematogra-phy [Anil Mehta] is first-rate
On the whole Secret Super-star is a complete package refreshing plot water-tight screenplay exceptional perfor-mances and soulful soundtrack Strongly recommended

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee
SDIX launched in 2016 says it is the worldrsquos first and only electronic exchange for trading investment-grade diamonds

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee
SDIX launched in 2016 says it is the worldrsquos first and only electronic exchange for trading investment-grade diamonds

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said

MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

PM Modi targets more energy reforms after meeting oil chiefs
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Prime Minister Narendra Modi sees scope for further reform of the countryrsquos energy sector and has
received ldquofocused suggestionsrdquo from some of the worldrsquos leading energy companies the offi ce of the premier said last Monday
Under Modi the worldrsquos third-biggest oil consumer is trying to use its market size to strike better deals with oil exporters and attract investment into Indiarsquos exploration and refi ning industries
Executives from companies in-cluding Rosneft BP Exxon Mo-bil Reliance Industries Saudi Ar-amco Royal Dutch Shell Vedanta Schlumberger and Halliburton met Modi as the industry gathered in New Delhi for the three-day India Energy Forum which fi nishes last Tuesday
ldquoParticipants appreciated the pace and drive with which Prime Minister Modi has brought about reform in the energy sectorrdquo Mo-dirsquos offi ce said in a statement after the meeting
ldquoSubjects such as the need for a unifi ed energy policy contract frameworks and arrangements re-quirement of seismic data sets en-couragement for biofuels improv-ing gas supply setting up of a gas hub and regulatory issues came up for discussionrdquo
The statement said that many suggestions at the last meeting in 2016 have helped guide Indian policy-making and that Modi said
he appreciated the ldquofocused sug-gestionsrdquo made this year and that ldquoscope for reform in many areas still existsrdquo
Modi was quoted as saying he looked forward to ldquovarious oppor-tunitiesrdquo for cooperation between India and Saudi Arabia the second biggest oil exporter to the country behind Iraq
State-run Saudi Aramco which last Sunday launched a new offi ce near New Delhi is in talks with several Indian refi ners for a pos-sible joint venture by next year
Its Chief Executive Amin Nasser told the conference after the Modi meeting that Indiarsquos oil demand would double by 2040 to about 10 million barrels per day making it the worldrsquos largest mar-ket for the fuel and a priority for the company
In the meeting Modi thanked Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rosneft for their support to In-diarsquos energy sector The two lead-ers were instrumental in helping to seal Rosneftrsquos $129 billion acqui-sition of Indiarsquos debt-laden Essar Oil strengthening ties between the worldrsquos largest oil producer and the fastest-growing fuel consumer

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

ing a chip that allows immedi-ate valuation based on exchange trading and instant authentica-tion which is crucial as synthetic diamonds have no resale value
A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee
SDIX launched in 2016 says it is the worldrsquos first and only electronic exchange for trading investment-grade diamonds

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

NEW DELHI - India will work with Japan to make long-term liquefied natural gas (LNG) im-port deals more affordable for its price-sensitive consumers it said last Wednesday as these two big importers try to secure bet-ter prices and concessions from suppliers
The arrangement will help state-run GAIL India Ltd swap a part of its 58 million tonnes of LNG booked with firms from the United States with that of Ja-panrsquos contracted volumes in Asia and elsewhere Sunjay Sudhir joint secretary for international cooperation in Indiarsquos federal oil ministry told Reuters
The worldrsquos biggest LNG buyers all in Asia are increas-ingly clubbing together to secure
more flexible supply contracts in a move that shifts power to importers from producers in an oversupplied market
An alliance of big buyers puts pressure on exporters such as Qa-tar Australia and Malaysia They prefer to have clients locked into fixed supply contracts that run for decades and make buyers take fixed amounts of monthly volumes irrespective of demand with no right to re-sell surplus supplies to other end-users
ldquoWithout joining any club we would like to work with other major consumers to promote a flexible and open LNG marketrdquo Sudhir said
Indiarsquos cabinet last Wednesday approved the proposal to sign a Memorandum of Cooperation
India Japan to team up to get more flexible LNG dealswith Japan that it said would help to diversify gas supplies strengthen energy security and lead to more competitive prices
Japan is the worldrsquos largest LNG importer and India the fourth biggest
Under the arrangement the two countries will try to get more flexibility in LNG contracts and abolish the Destination Restric-tion Clause which prevents them from re-selling imports to third parties
ldquoThe agreement will have a swap clause as well like we can swap our Australian LNG from
Gorgon project with LNG booked by Japan with Qatarrdquo Indiarsquos oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan who is travelling to Japan next week told reporters
India last month agreed to buy more LNG from the Gorgon proj-ect after Exxon Mobil agreed to cut prices under a long-term deal
India and Japan will also look at establishing LNG spot price in-dices that reflect true supply and demand
Pradhan earlier this week said that India wanted to set up a gas trading exchange for transparent market-driven prices that would
encourage investment into the sector
India wants to increase its share of gas in its energy mix from about 65 percent now to about 15 percent in the next few years Locally produced gas is sold at a government-set price formula
The president of Japanrsquos JERA Co the worldrsquos biggest LNG im-porter told Reuters last Wednes-day that his firm was set to sign a new LNG contract that would be free of destination restrictions
LNG markets have been marked by oversupply since 2014 as production has jumped
Diamonds - the new gold for rich investorsLONDON - Diamonds can at
last be an investorrsquos best friend the Singapore Diamond Invest-ment Exchange (SDIX) said last Tuesday as it launched a new standardised form of the precious stones to rival gold ingots as a safe-haven alternative to cash
The industry says diamonds are the worldrsquos most concentrat-ed form of wealth but investors have long viewed them as less useful as a store of value than gold because each stone is differ-ent making its value subjective and trading difficult
Alain Vandenborre chairman and founder of SDIX says tech-nology has solved that problem and diamonds can now become ldquothe new goldrdquo
Diamond Bullion produced by the Singapore Diamond Mint is a collection of investment grade diamonds whose value can be quickly checked Denomina-tions will initially range between $100000 and $200000 with higher and lower values possible in future
The diamonds are stored in a credit card-sized device contain-

ing a chip that allows immedi-ate valuation based on exchange trading and instant authentica-tion which is crucial as synthetic diamonds have no resale value
A mark on the Diamond Bul-lion developed by the Interna-tional Institute of Diamond Grad-ing and Research (IIDGR) which is part of Anglo Americanrsquos De Beers Group provides a further guarantee
SDIX launched in 2016 says it is the worldrsquos first and only electronic exchange for trading investment-grade diamonds

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said

MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

29Saturday October 21 2017 India Bulletin
NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

NEW DELHI - Indiarsquos Tata conglomerate is interested in bidding for state-owned Air India as the group needs to in-crease the sizes of its aviation business its boss told televi-sion channel CNBC TV18 in aninterview last Monday
Tata would ldquodefi nitely lookrdquo at Air India once the govern-ment fi nalised the privatisation process N Chandrasekaran chairman of Tata grouprsquos hold-ing company Tata Sons told the channel
He said Tata which already has two small airline joint ven-tures in India one with Singa-pore Airlines and the other with Malaysiarsquos AirAsia Bhd was still not clear about what a sale would look like
The government has not said whether it will sell all or parts of Air India and what it might do about the loss-making airlinersquos debt burden of $85 billion
ldquoWe still donrsquot have all the detailsrdquo Chandrasekaran said ldquoWe have two airlines both are subscale I feel scale isimportantrdquo
When asked whether Tata had spoken to Singapore Airlines about its interest in bidding for Air India Chandrasekaran said ldquoDo you think I would have notrdquo
Tatarsquos interest in Air India has been reported but Chandrasek-aran had not spoken publicly about a possible bid
Prime Minister Narendra Modirsquos cabinet in June gave the
Tata chairman says interested in bidding for Air India TV channelgo-ahead to sell Air India which has received $36 billion since 2012 in state aid
Last month the government invited bids to appoint fi nancial and legal advisors for the sale process
Some companies including low-cost Indian carrier IndiGo owned by InterGlobe Aviation ground handling company Bird Group and Turkeyrsquos Celebi Avi-ation Holdings have expressed an interest in buying some of Air Indiarsquos various businesses
Air India founded in 1930s by the Tata Group is saddled with
debts and a bloated cost struc-ture
Once the nationrsquos largest car-rier its market share in the booming domestic market has slumped to 13 percent as private carriers expanded
In Mondayrsquos interview Chan-drasekaran also said ldquoall options are on the tablerdquo when asked about the future of its struggling telecoms unit Tata Teleservices
The Economic Times said ear-lier this month that Tata had told the government it intended to shut down Tata Teleservices
ldquoI will have to take a tough
call and I willrdquo Chandrasek-aran said adding that a solution would be found this fi nancial year because Tata could not con-tinue to pump in cash to fund the company
Chandrasekaran also said the group was focusing on improv-ing returns at Tata Motors and ending production of its loss-making Nano car would make little diff erence to the fi rmrsquos profi tability
British luxury carmaker Jag-uar Land Rover has long been the main source of revenues and profi ts at Tata Motors
Wipro second-quarter profit beats estimateIndiarsquos third-largest software
services exporter Wipro Ltd post-ed a better than expected second-quarter profi t on Tuesday add-ing that it would match industry growth rates by the fourth quarter
The IT fi rm headquartered in the south Indian technology hub of Bengaluru said it expects a se-quential improvement in its growth trajectory in the third quarter
ldquoIn the last three quarters our guidance has been continuously moving upwards With that trajec-tory we believe in Q4 we will be able to deliver industry-matching
growthrdquo Chief Executive Abidali Z Neemuchwala said in the press conference
The company said it expected revenue from the IT services busi-ness to be in the range of $201 bil-lion - $205 billion in the quarter ended Dec 31
The forecast range is wide and gives no clear indication of any possible traction Emkay Global Financial Services analysts said in a note
Second-quarter quarter profi t rose 6 percent to 2192 billion ru-pees ($33713 million) beating
FILE PHOTO An Air India aircraft takes off from the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport in Ahmedabad on July 7 2017
analystsrsquo estimate of 2080 billion rupees according to ThomsonReuters data
Revenue from core IT services rose to 13169 billion rupees from 13137 billion rupees slightly above its earlier forecast Rev-enue from its biggest business - banking fi nancial services andinsurance - rose 82 percent
Indiarsquos largest IT services fi rm Tata Consultancy Services report-ed a 2 percent decline in second-quarter profi t last week held back by sluggish growth in banking and retail services

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health

Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo
Married men who see their relationship with their spouse improve over the years may also experience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

WHARTON NJ - While in-ternet searches allow consum-ers to comparison shop with the click of a button studies show that it is crucial to be a well‐edu-cated shopper in todayrsquos market
According to an extensive study done by a leader in loca-tion analytics called Placed re-tailers selling higher ticket items in a one‐off purchase are at risk of losing sales through ldquoshow-roomingrdquo or the act of inves-tigating an item in a brick and mortar store and then purchasing it for a lower price online How-ever customers buying many lower cost items in one trip for example during grocery shop-ping would not typically spend their time comparing prices on-line to save money on things like coffee or grains
This revelation bodes well for marketplaces and grocery e‐tailers who rely on busy shop-pers that look to trust the price fill their cart and obtain delivery of their order as a matter of con-venience Yet it also emboldens the old adage ldquobuyer bewarerdquo
Zifiticom based in the US is an online marketplace plat-form for buyers to source South Asian Indian products and for sellers to be connected directly
to a specific target audience Zi-Fitirsquos CEO Shinu Gupta states ldquoOur efforts to disrupt the mar-ketplace model is not limited to changing where people shop for Indian groceries but also how much a household ends up paying to acquire those hard to find Indian items while keep-ing it easy and convenientrdquo Gupta goes on to present a chal-lenge stating that a shopping trip on his site would result in an overall lower cost than if you purchased those same items on Amazon
In an effort to reveal the true cost of shopping for household necessities online the marketing firm Pro Source Clicks chose a list of items at zifiticom that are well known to a typical Indian consumer and ordered them to be shipped to a zip code in WI After finalizing their purchase with free shipping the final order total cost was $5140
Pro Source then proceeded to shop for those same items through search engines as well as on Amazoncom Many items were seen in the spon-sored ldquoGoogle Shoppingrdquo area however but at a higher cost than what was spent at ZiFiti Additionally it often took the
Recent study reveals true cost of online grocery shoppingmarketing team over 10 minutes to cull through the numerous re-sults at Amazon to find the same or similar item
Pro Source finally checked out with 7 of the 9 items and spent more than double on less prod-ucts For certain items differ-ent name brands had to be pur-chased but always at the same quantity The least expensive shipping method was always chosen without having to pay for membership with Prime The grand total was $10676 com-pared to the total with ZiFiti of only $5140
Overall Pro Source Clicks described their experience with Amazon as frustrating slow and overwhelming compared with the shopping experience at the Indian Marketplace ZiFiti which was quick and simple in addition to being less expensive Back in 2014 the e-commerce news and analytics company Digital Com-merce 360 had already laid claim to the fact that Amazon was choosing to score higher margins on certain products where they concluded scientifically that price wasnrsquot a determining fac-tor in consumer choice It must be the case that Amazon doesnrsquot experience much competition
in the Indian products market-place currently That being said as brand awareness for ZiFiti grows and supply and availabil-ity increase it will ultimately be the demand of South Asians (the fastest-growing ethnic group in the US today) that will drive
the use of comparison shopping for daily necessities and force competitive pricing

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended

for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo
Government officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from public health officials who link excessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

A visit to your (facial) plastic surgeon doesnrsquot necessarily mean drastic changes like a facelift or nose job Patients are demand-ing minimal downtime and cost-eff ective treatments to reverse the signs of aging often favoring subtle ldquotweakmentsrdquo that can be done on lunch breaks over surgery Initially somewhat stigmatized as unnatural or artifi cial within our community (in great part due to well-known celebrities overdo-ing such treatments) minimally-invasive cosmetic procedures are starting to gain more traction and acceptance In fact chances are that someone you know is keeping a little aesthetic secret from you
The three major classes of minimally invasive cosmetic pro-cedures are NeuromodulatorsFillers and LightLaser devices
Botox or botulinum toxin is a neuromodulator that is used to remove dynamic (ie occurring during movement) facial wrin-kles It is injected into targeted facial muscles under the skin to weaken them thereby eliminat-ing the wrinkles created when they contract Experienced pro-viders will utilize just enough to get rid of pesky facial wrinkles
without aff ecting your overallexpressiveness There is minimal-to- no discomfort associated with Botox injections and zero down-timerecovery Treatment eff ect isapprox 3 months
Fillers can be divided into ab-sorbable fi llers and permanent fi ll-ers the latter hardly used anymore because of signifi cant safety con-cerns The hyaluronic acid (HA) fi llers which include Juvedermcopy Restylane and Perlane are the most commonly used absorbable injectables and have been shown to have the highest safety rat-ings These fi llers are made from a naturally occurring molecule in the body found in skin joint fl uid and various other tissues in the body When mass-produced and cross-linked or joined together with other similar HA molecules it becomes a stable viscous prod-uct that provides volumization of soft tissues by drawing in and holding onto water How and to what degree the HA fi ller is cross-linked as well as the concentration of HA determines the thickness of the product and its longevity Clas-sically the thinner fi llers are used more superfi cially (ie in the lips or to fi ll in superfi cial lineswrin-kles) and do not last as long Con-versely thicker fi llers are intended
Putting your best face forward without surgery
for deeper utilization (cheek and lower eyelids) and lasts longer
Fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type of fi ller used and where on the face it is placed Common locations for fi ller enhancement include around the mouth lips na-solabial folds (ie laugh or smile lines) lower eyelid and cheek One of my most popular treat-ments is the correction of under eye hollows a very common prob-lem among South Asian women resulting in dark circles around the eyes and a tired look
Laser or light devices have nu-merous treatment eff ects includ-ing hair removal skin resurfac-ing (for wrinkles and irregular pigmentation) and acne scarring Many diff erent modalities of
laser or intense light exist to treat a variety of diff erent conditions For the purpose of this article I will only mention light therapies or non- ablative lasers (ie those that that do not remove the top layer or epidermis of the skin re-sulting in less downtime and post-treatment redness) Intense pulse light or broad band light devices use a range of visible light wave-lengths to eff ectively treat red and brown pigments in the skin while adding collagen and elastin in the deeper skin layers improving over-all texture Non-ablative lasers by defi nition target the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin while sparing the epidermis They are absorbed by very specifi c pigment types and also generate heat to allow collagen and elastin production
thereby improving skin quality and tone It should be noted that because of the increased pigment that is naturally found in South Asian skin types the use of any la-ser or light device can lead to tem-porary or permanent pigmentation issues Careful utilization of these therapeutic modalities as well as pre-treatment with pigment gels such as hydroquinone can reduce the risk of such complications

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations
By Lisa Rapaport
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

Weight loss surgery linked to lower risk of cancer
By Lisa Rapaport
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
Researchers examined data on almost 89000 extremely obese patients including roughly 22000 who had whatrsquos known as bariat-ric surgery to lose weight between
2005 and 2014 After an average follow-up of 35 years 2543 peo-ple got diagnosed with cancer
Compared to people who didnrsquot have bariatric surgery patients who did were 33 percent less like-ly to develop any type of cancer during the study They also had 40 percent lower odds of being diagnosed with tumors that areassociated with obesity
ldquoLowering the risk of cancer is just another reason to con-
sider bariatric surgery for thetreatment of obesityrdquo said lead study author Dr Daniel Schauer of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine
ldquoThere are many other good reasons to have bariatric surgery including improvements in dia-betes and high blood pressurerdquo Schauer said by email ldquoIt has also been shown to improve lifeexpectancy for obese patientsrdquo
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and the preva-lence of obesity has more than doubled during the past genera-tion People who are obese have a greater risk of developing and dying from several types of can-cer including malignancies of the breast ovary kidney pancreas colon rectum and bone marrow previous research has found
Obese people often struggle to shed excess pounds or keep weight off when they do lose it Lifestyle changes such as fol-lowing a healthy diet and getting regular exercise can often help in the short-term but fail to produce lasting results particularly among people who have more than 100 pounds to lose before reaching a healthy weight
Severely obese people who undergo surgery to shed excess pounds may have lower odds of developing cancer than they would without the operations a recent US study suggests
1 Heart Health Most studies have actually shown eggs to protect against strokes and improve heart health as the ldquogood cholesterolrdquo (HDL cholesterol) levels increase which can help to eliminate ldquobad cholesterolrdquo in the body
2 Weight Loss Since eggs are so full of those important proteins that our body needs for development they also tend to be a very satisfying and fi lling form of food They provide energy and nutrient stability in our body and satisfi es our hunger Eggs can be a great way to get the healthy balance you need without consuming excess calories which is a great way to lose weight or keep your weight down
3 Cognitive Ability One of the lesser known benefi ts of eggs is its impact on cognitive health primarily due to the high levels of choline present Choline is often grouped with B-vitamins but in fact it is a somewhat unknown nutrient that helps to create critical neu-ral pathways in the brain About 90 of the population is estimated to get less choline than the body requires but whole eggs supplycholine in large quantities
4 Rare Minerals The mineral composition of eggs is wonderful but it is also unique in that it can be diffi cult to obtain certain miner-als like iodine and selenium in our diets They are so versatile and universal that we can almost unconsciously stay balanced by eating eggs ensuring that those rare minerals keep our antioxidant activ-ity up (selenium) and maintain healthy hormonal functioning in our thyroid (iodine)

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

By Lisa Rapaport Asthma attacks serious enough
to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less like-ly when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests
Researchers examined data combined from seven previ-ously published studies with a total of 955 asthma patients who were randomly selected to take vitamin D or a placebo pill in addition to any other medi-cines prescribed to manage their symptoms
When asthma patients took vi-tamin D supplements they were 54 percent less likely to have an attack severe enough to require an emergency room visit or hos-pital admission the study found They were also 31 percent less likely to have frequent asthma attacks requiring treatment with
corticosteroidsThe apparent benefits of tak-
ing vitamin D were significant only in people who started out with a deficiency however
ldquoThe take-home message is that asthma patients who suf-fer with attacks (exacerbations) should get their vitamin D level checked and if it is low they should take a vitamin D supple-ment - there is negligible risk associated with doing this and there is pretty good evidence to suggest that this could re-duce their risk of having an at-tackrdquo said senior study author Dr Adrian Martineau of Queen Mary University of London in the UK
ldquoItrsquos very important to empha-size that asthma patients should not stop taking their usual asth-ma therapyrdquo Martineau said by email ldquoAll of the studies in-cluded in our review looked at
Vitamin D supplements linked to lower risk of asthma attacksthe effects of giving vitamin D on top of usual therapyrdquo
Worldwide more than 300 million people have asthma and the disease is responsible for an estimated 400000 deaths each year researchers note in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine
In the study participants lived in six countries on three conti-nents and ranged in age from 1 to 85 years
Vitamin D supplement doses varied across all the studies in the analysis One study tested a 100000 IU (international units) dose every two months four studies examined daily doses ranging from 500 IU to 2000 IU and two studies ex-plored giving patients vitamin D both daily and once every two months
Supplements appeared to have the biggest impact on reducing the risk of asthma
attacks in people who started out with blood levels of the cir-culating form of vitamin D that were below 25 nanomoles per liter (nmolL) which is widely considered deficient For people who started with circulating lev-els of 25 nmolL or higher there was some reduction in asth-ma attacks but the difference was too small to rule out the possibility it was due to chance
One potential explanation of the results is that vitamin D boosts immunity to respira-tory viruses that are the major precipitant of asthma attacks Martineau said It also dampens harmful inflammatory responses in the airway that can contrib-ute to the development of an asthma attack and may enhance the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids for some people
ldquoIn addition to benefits in asthma vitamin D supplemen-tation can reduce risk of colds and flu in people who donrsquot have asthma and protect against rickets in children and osteoma-lacia (softening of the bones) in adultsrdquo Martineau said
ldquoIt is possible to take too much vitamin D and if you
do it can cause high calcium levels that can result in kidney damage in extreme casesrdquo Mar-tineau added ldquoHowever this would not occur at the doses investigated in the trials that contributed to our analysisrdquo
The study didnrsquot examine the ideal dose of vitamin D or test possible reasons the supplement might ease asthma symptoms The small studies in the analy-sis also had different methods of measuring the effectiveness of vitamin D for reducing asthma attacks making it hard to say for sure who would benefit most from supplements
ldquoThis analysis suggests that vitamin D supplementation may be beneficial in patients with asthma although the evi-dence is not yet strong enough to recommend its userdquo said Dr Richard Beasley of the Medical Research Institute of New Zea-land in Wellington coauthor of an accompanying editorial
ldquoVitamin D supplementation is potentially an attractive thera-peutic approach as it is relatively cheap and vitamin D deficiency is common in many populations where asthma is also commonrdquo Beasley said by email
Asthma attacks serious enough to require steroid treatment or hospitalization may be less likely when people take vitamin D supplements a recent analysis suggests

Aspirin habits unchanged by recommendations from US doctors
US guidelines urging more adults who never had a heart at-tack or stroke to take a daily as-pirin may not have convinced people to take these pills a recent study suggests
In 2009 the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) a government-backed panel of inde-pendent physicians advised men ages 45 to 79 and women ages 55 to 79 to take aspirin to prevent heart attack and stroke as long as they didnrsquot have bleeding dis-orders that might make the drug unsafe
To see whether people in that age range took the advice re-searchers examined data from 2007 to 2015 on aspirin use for al-most 89000 men and women who didnrsquot have bleeding disorders or other medical reasons to avoid this drug Overall only 43 percent of these adults took aspirin during
the study periodEven after researchers looked at
how many risk factors people had for cardiovascular disease ndash such as high blood pressure elevated cholesterol and smoking ndash the 2009 recommendations didnrsquot ap-pear to boost aspirin use research-ers report in the Journal of the American Heart Association
After 2009 aspirin use de-clined from 45 percent to 40 per-cent among people at low risk for heart attacks and strokes from 66 percent to 62 percent among people at medium risk and from 76 percent to 73 percent among high-risk individuals
ldquoThere are many examples of preventive therapies that are unde-rutilized and are minimally affect-ed by publication of recommenda-tionrdquo said lead study author Dr Jeremy Vanrsquot Hof of the Univer-sity of Minnesota in Minneapolis
ldquoThe challenge with any thera-py for prevention is the fact that you are attempting to make a change in a patient who feels well with no manifestation of diseaserdquo Vanrsquot Hof said by email ldquoIt is much easier to convince someone to treat a broken arm or a pneumo-nia because they can see and feel the problemrdquo
Last year the USPSTF updated its aspirin recommendations ad-vising adults aged 50 to 59 who have at least a 10 percent risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years to take aspirin every day
The advice doesnrsquot apply to people in their 60s because the bleeding risk increases with age however and the jury is still out on whether this approach makes sense for people under 50 or over 70 the Task Force concluded in its most recent recommendations

Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation

Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

In its first guidelines dedicated to meditation the American Heart Association (AHA) stresses that the benefits havenrsquot been clearly established because studies have generally been too small brief or poorly designed to draw broad conclusions But the AHA re-search review concludes that med-itation may have some benefits be-yond just reducing stress said Dr Glenn Levine chair of the AHA task force on clinical practice guidelines
ldquoMeditation can be considered as an adjunctive lifestyle inter-vention in those interested in this practicerdquo Levine a researcher at Baylor College of Medicine in
Houston said by email ldquoWe do not believe meditation should be undertaken as a substitute for well-established and recommended life-style and medicinal interventionsrdquo
The practice of meditation dates back as far as 5000 BC While meditation is associated with cer-tain philosophies and religions today itrsquos practiced by people from many walks of life as a way to im-prove focus and relaxation Levine and colleagues note in the Journal of the AHA
The guidelines donrsquot address mind-body practices such as yoga and Tai Chi because the physical activity in these pursuits has been proven to help lower the risk of heart disease
Instead the AHA focused on sitting meditation including a va-riety of common forms such as Samatha Vipassana (Insight Med-itation) Mindful Meditation Zen Meditation (Zazen) Raja Yoga Loving-Kindness (Metta) Tran-
Meditation may help prevent heart disease doctors sayscendental Meditation and Relax-ation Response
Among other things these inac-tive forms of meditation may be associated with decreased levels of stress anxiety and depression and improved sleep and overall well-being the AHA guidelines note
Meditation might also help lower blood pressure but there isnrsquot enough evidence yet to show whether or how much blood pres-sure might decline for individuals
Some studies have also sug-gested that meditation might help
people quit smoking the guide-lines conclude
Meditation may help lower the risk of heart disease by countering the impact of stress on the body said Dr James Stahl a researcher at the Geisel Medical School at Dartmouth College and at Dart-mouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon New Hampshire
When people are under stress their fight or flight response can kick in leading to a release of stress hormones as well as spikes in blood pressure heart rate oxygen
consumption and a release of in-flammatory chemicals in the body Stahl who wasnrsquot involved in the guidelines said by email
ldquoThis is perfectly appropri-ate when confronted by a ti-ger but not so much if ordinary things like traffic trigger this responserdquo Stahl said
Meditation can trigger the op-posite of a fight or flight response encouraging the body to slow down and improving risk factors for heart disease like metabolic problems or inflammation
Marital ups and downs tied to shifts in heart health
By Lisa Rapaport
Married men who see their re-lationship with their spouse im-prove over the years may also ex-perience positive changes in their health that can lower the risk of heart disease a recent UK study suggests
Researchers examined data on 620 married fathers to see what they thought of their relation-ship when their child was almost 3 years old and again when their child was 9 The study team also assessed risk factors for heart disease like blood pressure cholesterol weight and blood sugar
ldquoWe found little change in car-diovascular risk factors for those whose relationships were con-sistently good or badrdquo said lead study author Dr Ian Bennett-Brit-ton of the University of Bristol
But changes in marriage were associated with shifts in heart health the study found
ldquoImproving relationships were linked with lower levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL bad cholesterol) and relatively lower weight when compared to those in consistently good relationshipsrdquo Bennett-Britton said by email ldquoDeteriorating relationships on the other hand were linked with worsening blood pressurerdquo
All of the men in the study were part of the Avon Longitudi-nal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC) which began in 1991
The researchers assessed the fathersrsquo blood pressure resting heart rate weight cholesterol and blood sugar levels between 2011 and 2013 when their children were nearly 19 years old
Changes in these risk factors can take time to develop and the absolute shifts detected in the study were small researchers note in the Journal of Epidemiol-ogy amp Community Health
After accounting for other fac-tors that can influence the odds of heart disease such as age
educational attainment short stature and household income improving relationships were as-sociated with slightly lowered (by about 025 mmolliter) levels of LDL cholesterol
Relationship improvements were also linked to falling weight based on a measure known as body-mass index (BMI) a ratio of weight to height Compared to those with a steadily good mar-riage men with an improving marriage had BMI scores that fell by an average 107 BMI units or the equivalent of about 10 pounds
Deteriorating relationships meanwhile were tied to worsen-ing diastolic blood pressure the ldquobottom numberrdquo that indicates how much pressure the blood ex-erts on artery walls when the heart rests between beats Diastolic blood pressure was 274 milli-meters of mercury higher when men reported worsening marital quality
The study wasnrsquot a controlled experiment designed to prove whether or how marriage quality influences heart health
Men were only about 36 years old at the start of the study and itrsquos possible that they were still too young by the end of the study for researchers to see meaningful changes in risk factors for heart disease Thatrsquos because many of these risk factors take years to
Meditation may help reduce the risk of heart disease when itrsquos added to proven approaches like lifestyle changes or drugs to lower blood pressure and cholesterol US doctors say
developStill the results add to growing
evidence suggesting that marriage can influence health said Brian Chin a psychology researcher at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh who wasnrsquot involved in the study
Itrsquos possible that shifts in the amount or quality of sleep oc-cur in tandem with changes in marriage quality and that this influences risk factors for heart disease Chin said by email
Improvements or declines in marital relationships might also be associated with changes in mental health or physical health especially if different eating ex-ercising smoking or drinking habits accompany these shifts
ldquoItrsquos interesting that improve-ments or deteriorations in mari-tal quality are associated with changes in cardiovascular dis-ease risk factors and surprising that consistently good or bad quality marriages were mostly unassociatedrdquo Chin said
ldquoThis seems to be suggesting that itrsquos something about the tran-sition from having a good mar-riage that you feel provides you with support care and warmth to a bad marriage marked by the ab-sence of affection or appreciation thatrsquos particularly relevant for cardiovascular disease riskrdquo Chin added
Nursing degrees increasing but not on track to meet goal for acute careThe proportion of registered
nurses with nursing bachelorrsquos degrees has climbed in recent years to 57 percent in US acute care settings but itrsquos not ris-ing fast enough to reach a goal of 80 percent by the year 2020 researchers say
ldquoWhen more nurses have de-grees therersquos a higher quality of care lower mortality rate and bet-ter patient outcomesrdquo said lead author Chenjuan Ma of New York Universityrsquos Rory Meyers College of Nursing in New York City
Nurses make up the larg-est healthcare workforce in the US with 275 million registered nurses in 2014 and 16 million of these working in hospitals the study team notes in the Journal of Nursing Scholarship
ldquoOn one side wersquore happy to see that the number of nurses is in-creasingrdquo Ma told Reuters Health in a telephone interview ldquoOn the other side we need to put more ef-fort and commitment into increas-
ing these numbers even morerdquoldquoSenior nurses with a lot of ex-
perience are retiring and wersquore concerned about how to replace that wealth of experiencerdquo said Joanne Spetz a health policy re-searcher at the University of Cali-fornia San Francisco who wasnrsquot involved in the study
ldquoHaving a higher education level doesnrsquot necessarily replace experience but itrsquos one of the strongest strategies we have and patient outcomes show it worksrdquo she told Reuters Health by phone
ldquoIf you want to be a nurse you should be prepared to dedicate yourself to getting at least a bac-calaureate nursing degreerdquo said Olga Yakusheva an economist at the University of Michigan School of Nursing in Ann Arbor ldquoIn this era of high technologies and in-formatics nurses are expected to be highly-trained in all aspects of patient care and prepared to par-ticipate and lead in system-level decision makingrdquo

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

WASHINGTON - Govern-ment officials in Chicagorsquos home county voted on Wednesday to repeal a tax on sugary drinks a win for a soda industry that has faced criticism from pub-lic health officials who link ex-cessive consumption to health epidemics like obesity
The 15-2 vote to end the tax starting Dec 1 was largely ex-pected after preliminary ac-tion to do so by commissioners in Cook County Illinois but was significant as the first such move since a string of US cities last year voted in favor of such taxes
The penny-per-ounce sug-ary drinks tax which narrowly passed in November 2016 has been under attack from the soda lobby retailers and others who said it put an unfair burden on the countyrsquos poorest citizens and hampered local businesses
Last year saw a number of victories for public health ad-vocates in favor of sugar and soda taxes which are designed to reduce consumption of sugary drinks and boost local revenues from Oakland California to Philadelphia The World Health Organization which has backed such levies said in a report this week that child and teen obe-sity has soared tenfold in four decades
There have been similar push-es across the world Mexico in-troduced a tax in 2014 and the United Kingdom is rolling out a similar levy
Repeal is not unheard of but this marks the first time a ma-jor US region has walked back from an implemented tax since public health efforts gathered pace in 2014-2016 In 2010 Washington state repealed soda and candy taxes
Big Soda scores victory as Chicago-area tax repealedThe American Beverage As-
sociation which represents soda manufacturers like Coca-Cola Co PepsiCo Inc and Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc applauded the move saying it signaled a momentum shift
ldquoPeople are catching on to what these taxes are money grabs And they are telling their elected officials therersquos a better way that doesnrsquot hurt working peoplerdquo said Lauren Kane a spokeswoman for the association
The tax made Cook County a battleground for expensive lob-bying campaigns from the soft drinks industry as well as former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg who bankrolled ads promoting the tax
In response to the move Jim OlsquoHara director of Health Pro-motion Policy at the Center for Science in the Public Interest
said ldquoThe industryrsquos opposition to these taxes is not new Their willingness to write big checks
is not new Sometimes they are going to win More time than not they are going to loserdquo

Some mothers may not seek early help for kids with developmental delays
When mothers trust their friends and neighbors more than doctors or struggle to access or afford care they may be less likely to seek out medical help for young kids with develop-mental delays a small US study suggests
The study focused on kids who are eligible for therapy through whatrsquos known as Early Interven-tion a government program that funds services for infants and toddlers who have developmen-tal delays in things like motor skills communication behavior and cognitive function Fewer than one in four kids eligible for Early Intervention get services researchers note in Pediatrics
The study team interviewed 22 low-income mothers of African-American and Latino children up to 36 months old who qualified for Early Intervention
All of the kids received rou-tine well-child visits and had developmental delays
But 59 percent of the moth-ers said their children had never enrolled in Early Intervention
ldquoIn the United States one in four children under the age of 5 years is at moderate to high risk of developmental delay a situation in which children do not achieve motor language cognitive so-cial or adaptive skills when they shouldrdquo said lead study author Dawn Magnusson of the Uni-versity of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora
ldquoMany mothers in our study experienced challenges access-ing early intervention services due to logistical challenges or competing social and financial stressors that resulted in delayed or forgone carerdquo Magnusson said by email ldquoThese findings
highlight the importance of sup-porting families throughout the referral process and helping to address their social and financial needsrdquo
Only two mothers in the study had attended college and 13 had not completed high school
All eight of the African-Amer-ican women in the study were born in the US while 11 of the Latino women were from Mexico and the rest were from Central America Only seven of the La-tino mothers had been in the US for 10 years or more
A majority of the kids had de-velopmental delays in expressive communication motor delays were the second most common problem
Few mothers however identi-fied their child as having devel-opmental delays the interviews found
More men infected with oral human papillomavirus
By Lisa Rapaport
Roughly one in nine US men have oral infections of the can-cer-causing human papillomavi-rus (HPV) more than triple the infection rate for women a new study suggests
HPV is among the most com-mon sexually transmitted dis-eases Most infections donrsquot cause symptoms and go away on their own But the virus can cause cancers of the throat anus penis cervix vagina and vulva as well as genital warts and lesions in the upper respiratory tract
Among US adults ages 18 to 69 approximately 11 mil-lion men and 32 million women nationwide have oral HPV in-fections researchers estimated Men were at the highest risk of developing oral HPV when they had oral sex with other men or also had genital HPV infections
Rising rates of HPV infections among men may help explain
why throat cancers in men are now more common than cervi-cal cancer in women said senior study author Ashish Deshmukh a public health researcher at the University of Florida in Gainesville
ldquoWe have the HPV vaccine approved for use in both boys and girls which has the poten-tial to decrease rates of HPV-as-sociated cancers in the futurerdquo Deshmukh said by email ldquoBut the low uptake of the vaccine among boys and disparities in the uptake remains a concernrdquo
In the US the HPV vaccine is recommended for children at age 11 or 12 with the goal of protecting them against the vi-rus before they become sexually active and also for teens and young adults who may not have previously been vaccinated
But as of last year only about half of girls and even fewer boys got the two-dose series of shots needed to fully protect against the virus Deshmukh said
YOUR PREMIER CHICAGOLAND LAW FIRM
MUMBAI - India cricket teamrsquos rising star spinner Kul-deep Yadav believes bowling on concrete has made him battle-ready for any surface that a rival cricket power can lay out for him
Kuldeep who claimed a hat-trick in his countryrsquos triumphant one-day series against Australia has become a household name at 22 and with just two Tests and 11 one-day internationals to his name
He played a big part in Indiarsquos 4-1 win over Australia cricket team but many believe the real test will come in tours of South Africa and England next year
Ahead of Indiarsquos series against New Zealand starting Sunday Kuldeep said that his varied left-arm wrist spin will be a weapon
on any trackldquoIt doesnrsquot matter to me where
I am playing because since my childhood I have bowled on ce-mented wickets So if you can turn the ball on concrete then you can spin it anywhererdquo Kuldeep said
ldquoIf you have skill good varia-tion and are beating the batsmen in the air then you can fi nd suc-cess anywhererdquo added Kuldeep who hails from the northern city of Kanpur
Kuldeep started as a pace bowler but at the age of nine he switched to wrist spin at his coachrsquos insistence
ldquoI started my career in 2004 as a fast bowler After practising for a few months my coach advised me to switch to spin
Kuldeep Yadav cements place in Indian cricket team attackldquoI did not like it at the start but
the fi rst ball I bowled was wrist spin and I had no idea what it was So he must have thought I have a talent and he worked on it
ldquoInitially it was tough but when I got down to it the hard work paid off rdquo
Kuldeep has made his mark in the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition with the Kolkata Knight Riders
But his rise as a top-class
spinner has been instrumental in India becoming top of the world Test and one-day rankings
The latest addition to Indiarsquos rich spin tradition made an in-stant impact with four wickets in his debut Test against Australia in Dharamsala this year
He impressed in Sri Lanka in September and then bamboozled Australian batsmen including star opener David Warner with his wrist spin winning many
more fansldquoAustralia are a good team and
compared to other sides always play dominating cricket Their batsmen donrsquot allow you to set-tle and just want to dominate abowlerrdquo Australia are a danger-ous side because they play freely and put you under pressure I played in the West Indies and then in Sri Lanka but they donrsquot play as attacking as the Aussiesrdquo Kuldeep said
Steve Smith beats Virat Kohli in highest-earning cricket captainrsquos race
As an international captain Australiarsquos Steve Smith earns a salary which is 20 times more than what his counterpart from Zimbabwe Graeme Cremer draws
Smith considered as the worldrsquos best Test batsman earns $1469 million per year Cremer earns $86000 Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli gets an approximate salary of$1 million
However Kohli - with his earnings from the BCCI brand endorsements and IPL fees - is the richest cricketer at themoment
According to a detailed study published by ESPNCricinfo of how much the contemporary cricketers are earning from the sport the Indian cricket board
Indiarsquos Kuldeep Yadav celebrates after dismissing Australiarsquos Pat Cummins in Second One Day International Match at Kolkata India on September 21 2017
often criticised for not giving Test cricket its due - is the high-est paying governing body in the format
ldquoAt $23380 per game Indiarsquos Test cricketers are the most well rewarded across the world earn-ing almost twice of what an Aus-tralian cricketer gets for a home Test (Australia has diff erent fees for home and away Tests)rdquo the report said
ldquoThe fi gures are based oninternational cricket and do not take into account player earnings from T20 leagues other domestic engagements orendorsementsrdquo the report added

Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake

WEEKLY HOROSCOPE(October 29 - November 4 2017)
Indian Embassy in US lsquoactively involvedrsquoin Sherin Mathews case
RICHARDSON TX - The Indian Embassy in Hous-ton says they are monitoring developments in the Sherin Mathews missing person case in Richardson
ldquoWe are closely monitoring Sherin Mathews case We have established the contact with the community and authoritiesrdquo a spokesperson for the embas-sy based in Houston said in a written statement
The Minister of External Af-fairs for Government of India Sushma Swaraj said in a tweet last Thursday ldquoWe are deeply concerned about the missing child Indian Embassy in US is actively involved and they keep me informedrdquo
Investigators trying to figure out what happened to missing 3-year-old Sherin Mathews have seized a long list of items from the familyrsquos Richardson home
The father said she went miss-ing after he made her stand out-side in the middle of the night as punishment for not drinking her milk
Wesley Mathews 37 said he ordered Sherin Mathews to stand next to a tree behind the fence at their Richardson home at around 3 am Saturday October 7 ac-cording to an arrest affidavit The tree is across an alley approxi-mately 100 feet from the home
Mathews went outside about 15 minutes later to check on her but Sherin was gone the affidavit states The child who has a de-velopmental disability was wear-ing leggings a pink long-sleeved shirt and pink flip-flops
Not yet too worried the fa-ther said he then did a load of laundry according to a police affidavit He waited until after sunrise before he reported the disappearance to police
ldquoThe father didnrsquot notify police that his daughter was missing until about five hours laterrdquo said Sgt Kevin Perlich He said the delay in reporting the matter ldquois certainly concerning to usrdquo
ldquoThat does not seem like a
normal response that one would do if you have a missing childrdquo Perlich said
Mathews was arrested on child abandonment and endan-germent charges the same day Sherin went missing but has since been released on bond and stopped cooperating with detectives
Police said Sherinrsquos mother was asleep during the incident and she has not been charged but the station reported that shersquos also stopped cooperating
Neither parent were seen at a large vigil for the girl last Friday
Mathews at one point told in-vestigators that coyotes have been seen in the alley but inves-tigators say therersquos no indication that one might have dragged the girl away
Detectives and FBI agents subsequently announced that someone left in the familyrsquos SUV about 4 am on the day she disap-peared and returned home within the hour
Investigators have seized 47 items from the Mathews home in-cluding three vehicles a washer and dryer cell phones vacuum and trash bags hair fibers blan-kets and sheets shoes and laptops from the family in an effort to find out what became of Sherin Perlich said Footage from sur-veillance cameras in the area also is being reviewed
State Child Protective Services removed the couplersquos 4-year-old daughter from the home he
said CPS spokeswoman Maris-sa Gonzales said the agency has had dealings with the family be-fore but she declined to release additional information
Perlich said Mathews and his wife adopted Sherin who was malnourished when the couple took her in Mathews told in-vestigators it wasnrsquot unusual for the girl to wake up late at night to eat so that her weight would increase Perlich said That may explain why she was punished at 3 am he said
ldquoWe donrsquot have any other in-dication or evidence that she was forcibly abducted from that areardquo he said
Born in India the girl has passed from ward to ward for much of her short life
She was abandoned by her birth parents before her sec-ond birthday according to the Times of India and rescued by adoption workers
While in the agencyrsquos custody the Times reported Sherin would wait for hours on the stairs until a worker she called ldquonanirdquo arrived then run and hug the woman
The Mathews adopted her last year bringing her to their quiet neighborhood of mostly South Asian families outside Dallas
By age 3 Sherin weighed only 22 pounds according to Richard-son police Her father told detec-tives she had an eating disorder and the couple tried to feed her whenever she was awake
