Jealousy responsible

“Jealousy is the main factorin such cases. Even kith and

kin or acquaintances can't seesomeone close to them flour-ishing and hence develop agrudge against them. More -over, this is the easiest way ofearning. If they want to earnmoney by working it will takeyears,” said P Jyothi Raja, asenior child psychologist.

“Another important thing,”she says, “ is that earlier peopleused to lead a simpler life bynot revealing their actualwealth. But, now-a-days peopleare sho wing off their wealth bycelebrating big, which is invok-ing frustration among others.Basically human tendency is 'If Idon't have, then even heshouldn't have it.' They loosecontrol and tend to commitcrime. At this stage they are noteven bothered about the conse-quences or that it may straintheir family relations.”

But why target children."Children are the safe ta rgetsas the resistance is mi ni mum.Children blindly trust th em andcan't make out their pl ot. Ifsomeone hurts them physicallythey may forget as time pass-es, but if they hurt someoneclose to them, especially theirchildren, the cuts are deeper."

HYDERABAD: When the six-foot-tall Soham says the lastbest thing he remembers tohave seen was his mother, he issurely touching a sentimentalcord. Soham Svarna wasn’tborn with blindness. Heturned visually challenged justbefore he entered the age ofadolescence.

Yet, his grit and determina-tion makes the visitors awe-struck. He is one among the15-odd visually-challengedyouths bubbling with enthusi-asm to induce an experience ofbeing blind among those whocan see at Dialogue in theDark, established on the Level5 at InOrbit Mall at Madhapurless than a year ago.

It isn't an amusement parkor an art exhibition to titillatethe basic instincts. It is a con-cept woven around "socialinclusion of marginalised peo-ple around the globe."

What’s it all about? Whatdoes it feel like when you turnvisually challenged? You giverest to your eyes and yourother sensory organs willobviously assume charge. Youbegin to touch and feel, youtend to smell effectively, youlearn to listen carefully, andyou obviously communicate

articulately.It’s always amazing to wa tch

a visually-challenged personwalking past every obstaclewith the help of a stick toting itto the left and the right. Sightedpeople, torn out of their socialroutines, are sho wn the way bythe blind.

The Dialogue in The Dark isan exhibition created byAndreas Heinecke, a Germanjournalist, in 1988 with the firstpremier show at Fran kfurt inGermany. He actually createdthe Dialogue in the Dark whiledeveloping a programme for acolleague who lost his eyesight.While it remained a travellingexhibition for a decade, thefirst permanent exhibition was

set up at Hamburg in Germanyin 2000. It is called Dialog imDunkeln in German.

While over six million peo-ple visited the exhibition fromacross 25 locations in Japan,Italy, Israel, Australia and theUSA, the Dialogue in the Darkhas presence in several coun-tries across the globe now.Hyderabad is the chosen loca-tion for the company to estab-lish its centre in India.

As you enter, you are madeto deposit all that glitters,including your wrist-watch,pen, mobile phone, ring, andthe likes. You are allowed totake some small currencyinside. A totally or partiallyblind person will brief you on

how to love the environmentwithout being able to see. Theexhibition has multiple the -mes like Park, Fountain, andboat tour.

After you are thoroughlybriefed, the guide walks youthrough the exhibition. A visi-tor (in case there are more thanone visitor, they will have towalk in a queue one after theother) is ushered in with all thewarmth that a guest can expectfrom his/her most loved ones.

For instance, the visitortouches and feels the leaves ofplants, a large trunk of a tree, a

small cantilever hanging bri -dge, a wooden bench where thevisitors are engaged by theguide in a dialogue. Then thevisitors are made to buy achocolate of their preference.

While the general practiceof people is to litter the place bythrowing away the wrappers,the guide makes sure that youdispense the chocolate covers

in a garbage bin.The visitor walks back to

light feeling totally delightedand also awakened to theharsh realities of the Crea ti on.Yet, he appreciates the en -virons cobbling up the str -engths of all sensory organs.

The shows for visitors runfrom 11am through 9pm onweek days and 11am to 10pmon weekend days — Saturdayand Sunday. And the proceedsof the entry fee are used formaintaining the facility and tomeet the salaries and opera-tional costs of the staff andguides, says Krishnan, Dire ctor.There are about 150-200 foot-falls every day on the we ekdaysand 300 on weekends.

In fact, Dialogue in theDark has as its mission “tofacilitate social inclusion ofmarginalised people on a glob-al basis”.

Soham, who is conversantwith many languages like En gl -ish, Hindi, Tulu, Marathi, Gu -jarati, and Punjabi, is raring tolearn Telugu from his other col-leagues. He makes the visitorstouch him and describe him ifhe is tall or short, thin or fat.

It’s all about seeing thebrighter side of life through thedarkness.

They conquer the unthinkable by their sheerconfidence. What if the eyes turn blind? The other

senses take charge and guide the rest. It iswalking into the darkness, literally for the

blessed. For the less fortunate, however, everytour they guide is an occasion to demonstrate

their innate talent and strength, Dialogue in theDark, located at Level 5 of InOrbit Mall, is part

of a global chain and India's first, writesA Saye Sekhar

There are about150-200 footfallsevery day on thewe ekdays and 300on weekends

Pakistan said it was review-ing its alliance with the US andNATO after the lethal strikewhich it branded a violation ofinternational law, summoningthe US ambassador CameronMunter and warning of seriousrepercussions.

It also announced the clo-sure of its Afghan border toNATO, shutting down a sup-plies lifeline for 130,000 US-led foreign troops fighting theTaliban, and called on the USto leave a remote air basereportedly used by CIA drones.

The NATO force inAfghanistan admitted it was‘highly likely’ that its aircraftcaused the deaths inSaturday’s pre-dawn strike,inflaming US-Pakistani rela-tions still reeling from the Maykilling of Osama bin Laden.

The US commander in

Afghanistan promised a fullinvestigation and sent hiscondolences over any troops‘who may have been killed’ onthe Afghan border withPakistan’s lawless tribal belt,branded an Al-Qaeda hub byWashington.

US Secretary of DefenseLeon Panetta and Secretary ofState Hillary Clinton bolstered

that message in a joint state-ment on Sunday, offering their‘deepest condolences’ andbacking ‘NATO’s intention toinvestigate immediately.’

Clinton, the US comman-der in Afghanistan GeneralJohn Allen, and the chairmanof the US Joint Chiefs of Staff,General Martin Dempsey,called their Pakistani counter-

parts to discuss the situation.“These US diplomatic and

military leaders each stressed— in addition to their sympa-thies and a commitment toreview the circumstances ofthe incident — the impor-tance of the US-Pakistanipartnership, which serves themutual interests of our peo-ple,” the US statement said.

Britain’scontingencyplan LONDON: Britain is steppingup its contingency plans in casethe eurozone breaks up, eventhough analysts believe that onlyGreece is currently at risk ofdeparting the 17-nation blocover the debt crisis.

A senior official at Britain’sfinancial watchdog, theFinancial Services Authority,said on Thursday that Britain’sbanks were drawing up plans forthe possible dismantling of theeurozone, but did not elaborate.

Andrew Bailey, deputy headof the FSA’s prudential businessunit and an executive director ofthe Bank of England, said bankssuch as HSBC and Barclayscould not afford to ignore thepossibility of a breakup.”We aretalking to them about it and theyare doing (something about) it,”Bailey told reporters inLondon.”We have talked to themalready and will be talking tothem again.”

Bailey said at a retail bankingconference “Good risk manage-ment means planning forunlikely but severe scenarios,and this means that we must notignore the prospect of the disor-derly departure of some coun-tries from the eurozone.

As you sow Makhani happy returns of the day

The country’s most presti-gious ‘milk factory’ on

November 26 celebratedthe 90th birthday of MilkMan of India VergheseKurien, who was milk, fat,SNF, butter, ghee, peda,khova and what not for theAnand Milk Union.

“You changed the livesof 15 million farmer families. You revolutionised the dairysector. You gave India 200 Amul brands. We give you 90 can-dles.” This is the message put up by Gujarat Cooperative MilkMarketing Federation on Amul’s website greeting its mentor.

“Indian dairy co-operative movement became a shiningexample of success due to wisdom and toil of our farmers,visionary leadership of Dr. Verghese Kurien and tremendousencouragement and support extended by successive gov-ernments at Union and State level,” said P G Bhatol,Chairman of GCMMF.

He had said in his annual speech: “During the year, salesof our Federation registered a quantum growth of 22.1 percent to reach Rs. 9,774.27 crores (Rs. 97.74 billion).

On November 26, 1921 – exactly 25 years before theIndian Constitution was enacted, a lad was born to create‘operation flood’ in India after crossing his 50s. That wasVerghese Kurien who held the reins of Amul until 2004-05.

Amul welcomed visitors of its website to greet its leg-end through email ([email protected]), Facebook andtwitter. And the $ 2-billion company greeted him on its top-icals ‘Makhani happy returns of the day, Dr. Kurien’.

A SAYE SEKHAR

so shall you reapThe business of politics and politics of

business got intertwined so muchthat none can disentangle them todelineate between the two. Egging histrusted lieutenant K Yerran Naidu toimplead himself in a public interest liti-gation (PIL) taken on file by the AndhraPradesh High Court consequent upon a

letter written by Congress MLA P Shanker Rao, TDP supre-mo N Chandrababu Naidu successfully cornered the YSRCongress founder Y S Jaganmohan Reddy.

The court, which dealt with the case, ordered a CBIinvestigation into the charges of ill-gotten money of theYSR clan’s scion. The erstwhile first family, which wasalready feeling estranged by the Congress by then, of theState was rattled by the court decision.

Even as the apex probe agency began delving deep intothe books and documents that evidence the transactions ofthe companies that threw their weight behind Jagan’s com-panies, a master political move by the Jagan camp aimed atthe master political strategist (Chandrababu Naidu) caughtthe latter as also his associates unawares. Political chargesand counter-charges apart, a whole lot of listed companieslike Madhucon, Sujana, Ramky, Aurobindo, and numerousprivate limited entities came under CBI scanner. The Statewould be contrite at the end of the day what with the toppoliticians’ dragging one another to court. Businessmenwho toed the line of Jagan and Chandrababu Naidu arenow getting it as much as their ‘benefactors’ do.

After all, as you sow so you reap.

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 20118A critical look at games and players Play Field

Recent defeats toLiverpool and BayerLeverkusen had piledthe pressure on the 34-

year-old Blues boss, but thetension at Stamford Bridgeeased in the sixth minute ofSaturday's game when JohnTerry capitalised on some poormarking to head home JuanMata's cross.

Daniel Sturridge slippedhis marker to tap home Mata'sball just before the half hourbefore the Spaniard added thehosts' third in the last minuteof the first half when he wasgiven plenty of space to con-vert Ashley Cole's cross from12 yards.

The result could have been arout had it not been for a seriesof excellent stops from Wolvesgoalkeeper Wayne Hennessey,the highlight of which was adouble-save from Sturridge andMata halfway through the sec-ond period.

Wolves, who had won justone of their last 10 gamesbefore this, were there for thetaking, and after a cagey open-ing five minutes, Chelsea tookhold of the game thanks toTerry's opener.

Ramires stole the ball off adallying Nenad Milijas and firedgoal-wards only to see

Hennessey tip the Brazilian'seffort wide with a brilliant save.

Stamford Bridge went intouproar from the resulting corneras Terry lost his marker to headMata's cross home from eightyards to give the Blues the lead.

The Blues were cautious inpossession and appeared to la ckthe confidence to turn the sc rewon their opponents, but theysuddenly sprung to life to dou-ble their lead in the 29th minute.

Ronald Zubar attempted tobail Mata over, but the Spaniardkept his footing and sent over alow cross that Sturridge tappedhome from close range aftermuscling past his marker.

Hennessey spilled Stur -ridge's powerful shot over thebar just before the break andMata made it 3-0 on the strokeof half-time when he was givenroom to beat Hennessey from12 yards. EVENING STANDARD

Ryan Taylor wasted an earlyopportunity and Ba produced a wasteful half-volley momentslater.

Hernandez was the most dan-gerous member of a United attackthat had been bolstered by thereturn of Wayne Rooney.

The Mexican also had a shotsaved by Tim Krul and droveanother effort over, with Nanialso off target with a curlingstrike from the corner of thepenalty area.

Fabio, Rooney and AshleyYoung had chances that came andwent and it was just as well forUnited that they had profited fromsome bad luck on Steven Taylor'spart. He stuck out a leg to turnaway a Rooney piledriver butcould only hit Hernandez andwatch the ball bobble in.

Then, when Ferdinand slid inon Ben Arfa, assistant refereeJohn Flynn surprisingly signalled

for a penalty and Ba kept hiscool to send David De Gea thewrong way.

10Functions and CelebrationsFete SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 2011

Isha [email protected]

Fairy lights shimmer, aspretty baubles catch theglimmer. Colourfuldrapes add that festive

touch even as girls dressed in alltheir finery giggle. The soundsof shehnais and dhols fill the aireven as the blushing brideawaits her handsome groom.Every other night, there’s abaraat being taken as enthusi-astic revellers dance to the beatof the gregarious weddingbands. The wedding season ishere and it’s hard to miss.

The year-end is usually onethat is filled with festive cheerwhat with the Christmas good-will and the promise of theNew Year. But being the wed-ding season only adds to thefestive flavour. And weddingsacross the country are under-going a sea change. New ritualsare being fused with the tradi-tional ones to create a pleasantcocktail of celebrations.

For instance, a few years ba -ck, if one would recall a south In -dian wedding, they would recallscenes of ladies in heavy kanjee-varams and men in pattu dhotislooking as the pundit read themantras and solemnised thewedding. A stark contrast to theloud and pompous north Indianweddings. But things are chang-ing. Everybody wants to have abachelor’s/h en’s parties, cocktailparty, meh e ndi, sangeet andbaraat. The tra ditional weddingfinery is changing too. Brightlehengas and cocktail gowns arethe in thi ngs, even as kundanjewellery is replacing chunkygold jewellery.

Wedding stylist, Dinaz No -ria, shares her experience ofmaking these dream weddingsturn a reality. “Unlike earlier,weddings nowadays havebecome a much more elaborateaffair. People want to make itthe most memorable event andshare their happiness with theirnear and dear ones. There are afew rituals that have percolatedfrom north India like Sangeetand Mehendi. The whole ideafor people nowadays is to makethe wedding more colourful,lively and cheerful. Earlier,weddings were more seriousaffairs. Now people haveenhanced the other ceremoniesand made it larger,” she says.

So, gone are the days whenthe wedding would be just anauspicious affair. While expen-sive beverages flow duringcocktail parties, menus areundergoing a revamp even asnew traditions are being intro-duced. The otherwise uptightuncles and aunties also gladly

let their hair down and breakinto a jig on the dance floorwhen the occasion calls for it.But despite the cosmopolitannature of weddings these days,the actual wedding ceremonyremains untouched.

Radhika Reddy, a weddingplanner feels the marriage sce nein Hyderabad has changed byleaps and bounds not only interms of rituals but also the de -cor and preparations. Every -thing has become extravagantand elaborate. “There are a lot

of rituals that have beenimbibed from north India.There are cocktail parties beforethe rituals begin. These days,weddings last for a minimum ofa week. Pre and post marriageparties have become the normof the day and people don’tmind extending their budgetsfor the same,” she says.

Dinaz Noria shares the latesttrends on the wedding styles this

season saying that its vintagelook people are going gaga over.“This season is all about goingarty and classic. People are benttowards the vintage feel for theirwedding. They want it to be likethose old palace, royal feel, andclassy older touch to the wed-ding. Also, the paintings aresomething attracting people thisseason, they want a lot of paint-ings on things, like Madhubani.While the Sangeet and otherfunctions still continue on theglass and crystal looks, but it’s

the D-day that goes the Vintageway.” she says.

“One thing that south Indianever compromises is on flow-ers. They are flown from allacross the world. The cold onescoming down from Europe,while the warm ones fromThailand and China. It’s allabout keeping it real and notfake and plastic.” adds Dinaz.

While weddings have

become the superlative versionof grandeur, one more small butsignificant part that marks thebeginning of this auspiciousand memorable affair is wed-ding cards.

“Cards have gone to a differ-ent level altogether — fromscented candles to wine bottlesto all the exotic stuff. It is allabout making a statement andthis season has seen a lot ofmusical cards,” she says.

So why is this change?Radhika replies, “It is mainly

because Hyderabadis have ahuge spending power. The wed-dings have become a competi-tive affair and also a means toshow off which in a way worksfine for event managers, as weget bigger orders.”

In fact, weddings havebecome ostentatious these daysthat people don’t think twicebefore placing an order for exot-ic flowers and food. Radhika

reveals, “Nowadays, flowers areordered from Holland, make upis no less than a Mac with wellknown make-up artistes roped in and celebrity photogra-phers capture candid moments.There is a spread of delicacieswith an innumerable variety ofcuisines. An average weddingthese days would cost upwardsof Rs 20 lakh.”

Just take a look at the wed-ding celebrations of the Allus,Nandamuris or GVKs; and you’llget an idea of what we’re talking

about. But it’s not just the cremede la creme of the society that isgoing all out to celebrate wed-dings. Attend any true blue Hy -derabadi wedding and you aresure to catch glimpses of whatwealth can bring into the wed-ding season. At the end of theday the idea is to have the bestwedding of the season, one thatwill leave a lasting impressionon the guests and the couple.

What a dilemma! If anyonecan settle the argument,it’s Bobbi Brown. Sincelaunching a collection of

10 lip shades at New York’s BergdorfGoodman department store in 1991,her products are now sold in 56 coun-tries. Hers is the go-to brand for SusanSarandon, Brooke Shields and YasminLe Bon but also the one that gets realwomen out of the front door eachmorning looking and feeling a damnsight better than they did when theyrolled out of bed.

“My ethos has always been thatmake-up should make women looklike themselves — but just a little bitbetter,” she says when we meet at theConnaught Hotel. “The time-short citywoman needs to look groomed andprofessional without seeming to weara faceful of product.”

Stepping into the office lookingeffortlessly radiant is our aim but fewof us really know how to achieve theelusive “no make-up make-up” look.According to Brown, the mistake we’remaking is jumping straight to accentfeatures (bold lips and eyes), whenreally we should be letting our skin dothe work. The rule is “lose the founda-tion”. Or at least wear much less thanwe do now.

“Women often start by applyingfoundation merely out of habit,” saysBrown. “Instead, moisturise the face toimmediately plump and hydrate skin.

“Then apply my Corrector justwhere you need it — usually under theeyes, around the nose and sometimeson the chin. You can top this with theCreamy Concealer . Step back fromthe mirror and you’ll be surprised howlittle foundation — if any — youneed.”

Shade-matching is Brown’s forte.Her biscuit-toned concealers, she says,counteract purple or green imperfec-tions in light skin tones — the peachyones neutralise the flaws of warmercomplexions. Then it’s a case of adapt-ing product textures.

“Skin changes from day to day —and even from morning to evening —so learn to adapt your routine,” sheadds. Waking up feeling dry-skinnedafter a sleepless night? Pat moisturiserover make-up onto cheeks and tem-ples to make it dewy. If your Tube ridehas left you shiny, try a loose powderaround the nose and across the fore-head.

We should also stop expecting ourmake-up to last all day in centrallyheated offices. If it lasts all day, it’susually because it’s having a drying

effect on the skin - and it shows. Looking artlessly immaculate

herself, Brown skips eyeshadowthen lines upper lashes with thedeep brown Long-Wear EyelinerGel in Espresso Ink. Apparentlymany mascaras have a greyundertone - yet finding one that’s trueblack will mean you don’t have to loadup your lashes to add definition toeyes. Brown swipes on two coats, skipsthe fiddly business of lash curlers andinstead uses her index finger to holdthem in a curled position for a few

secondswhile the formula dries.

Rootle around in abeauty editor’s make-

up bag and you’resure to findBrown’s Pot Rougefor Lips and

Cheeks. A cream-based formula, it blends

into the skin, rather than sittingcrustily on top as many powders do,to create a natural flush that makesus look perkier without detractingfrom our professionalism by appear-ing too girlish.

Get your work face onwith effective make-up

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 201112Allure

Bright lipstick andheavy eyeshadoware off the agenda atthe office. A report thisweek said a third ofbosses think womenwear too much make-upto work. But showing upwith a scrubbed face isno good either, as man-agers do want presentable staff

Secrets for a perfect work face

n Get into the habit of patting moisturiser overmake-up and topping up your cream blush fora lightning-quick lunchtime refresher. Use anyproduct remaining on your eyeliner brushfrom morning to redefine the lower lash linein a way that looks natural.

n Travel light. Buy one of the empty customis-able palettes, and fill it with a small amountof your concealer, blush, a lip shade, eyelinerand shadow to hide gaps in brows. You’llhave everything you need in one compactthat slides into your bag.

n Ditch the “back of your hand” myth and testskin shades on the side of your face and fore-head. Your correct match will disappear intoyour skin.

n Corrective products should be used to evenout your skin tone - not change it. To addwarmth, choose a non-shimmer bron z er anduse a large, fluffy brush to sweep it across thetop of the forehead, down the nose and ontothe apples of cheeks.

n Pick up a free sample size of the Extra Fac eOil on counters, pop it in your handbag andpat onto cheekbones and through brows foran instant skin pick-me-up while on the go.

n Groomed brows add instant polish to yourface. Match a brown eye shadow to your haircolour and brush on in small, hair-like strokes.(And watch this space for the arrival of theBobbi Brown brow pencil.)

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 2011 13KELLY ROWLANDHere I Am (Motown)

After spending years in Beyoncé's booty-licious shadow, the former Destiny'sChild star, is back in the spotlight asone of the judges on this year's X

Factor. Initially, it sounds as if this new-found

attention has gone to Rowland's head. "I'mnot tacky, I just love myself," she asserts overI'm Dat Chick's Gaga-esque backing. For onewho seems so confident, however, she's unwill-ing to take risks on her third solo album. Mildlyraunchy R&B ballads are the default setting here,with Rowland sounding like a less exotic Rihanna."Sometimes you gotta do it, don't talk too much, justkiss and touch, and just do it," she advises on thesynth-heavy All of the Night.

Stranger still, given the X Factor associations,there's a conspicuous lack of window-shattering highnotes on display. Instead, Rowland is largely contentto purr over plodding beats and plaintive piano.

Even a cameo from the usually brilliant Lil Waynefails to liven things up. "It goes deep, but I go deep-er/Make you lose yourself, like finders keepers," hedrawls on Motivation, sounding about as motivated

as Eeyore on a hangover. Backed by bolder beats, however, and

Rowland can sound like a star in her own right.Turn it Up is a frenetic floor-filler and Lay it on Mehas an irresistible chorus, though the less saidabout the David Guetta-inspired Commando, thebetter.

A missed opportunity.

OLLY MURSIn Case You Didn't Know (Epic/Syco)

Fair play to Olly Murs, runner-up to Joe McElderry in X Factor 2009.Not only has he clung on to make a second album but he's even co-written some of it. Alas, he's rather foolishly taken to comparing him-self with Paul Weller as a lyricist. He's nothing of the kind, of course,

and for all In Case You Didn't Know's bright eyes and bushy tail, it veersfrom a karaoke version of Bruno Mars's The Lazy Song on the title track to akaraoke version of Bruno Mars's Grenade on Anywhere Else, supplemented

by the aimless plod of Just Smile and theanodyne Just Smile. Rizzle Kicks

bring a hint of edge to HeartSkips A Beat and Murs's

voice is undeniably pass-able but don't take bets

on a third album hap-pening.

AA BONDYBelievers (Fat Possum)

Auguste Arthur Bondy is one of those numerous gentle-men from the southern US (in this case, Alabama) whohave arrived on the planet with mellifluous vocalcords and the ability to navigate a fret board with

some ease. Believers is a collection of songs that eschew thedreary clichés of alt country, in favour of a dreamy rock 'n' rollsound, spiked with just a hint of magic mushroom. The bestsongs from this tight little three-piece ensemble — MaceyTaylor on bass, Ben Lester on drums and occasional pedal steelguitar — fill in some gaps between Chris Isaak (The Twist) andTom Petty (Rte.28/Believers). Other highlights include DRMZ,Hiway/Fevers and Skull & Bones. If you have 1,399 records inyour collection and are hell-bent on making it 1,400, then thismight well fit thebill for a lan-guorousafter-noon.

AZIZ SAHMAOUI &UNIVERSITY OF GNAWA(Socadisc)

University of Gnawa is the new project of AzizSahmaoui, who's played alongside Joe Zawinuland in the great Paris-based Orchestre Nationalde Barbes. Here he draws on the melting-pot

sounds of his home city of Marrakech — both the heal-ing music of the Gnawa trance masters (which thrillinglyfires tracks like Ana Hayou and Foufou Danba with theirpile-driving rhythms), as well as popular chaabi soundsand Nass el Ghiwane, the Moroccan equivalent of theRolling Stones. The track Gnawa Market is a distinctlyMoroccan version of Weather Report's Black Market.With top producer Martin Meissonnier (Khaled, SeunKuti, Robert Plant), Sahmaoui has assembled a powerfulband with some West African kora and guitar flourishes.He plays at Momo on December 6.

CHICK COREA & STEFANO BOLLANIOrvieto (ECM)

Stefano Bollani's scintillating duet set with Martial Solalat the London Jazz Festival should whet the appetitefor his latest ECM album, where he meets one of theall-time greats. If anything this partnership works

even better because Corea's famously steady sense of timeallows the fearless Italian to venture even further out on alimb. Bollani, in return, indulges in some lowdown walking-bass in the left hand while Chick hits his solo stride. Tapedlive at the Umbria winter festival, they play bossas, folkmelodies, two successful free-improves and some great stan-dards, including Nardis, Darn That Dream and a revitalised old FatsWaller classic, Jitterbug Waltz.

Recipes easier thangrandmas’ cookings

Rachel Ehrenberg

If your pumpkin pie recipecalls for cinnamon butyou’ve used the last of it,nutmeg, ginger or car-

damom will do. Out of olive oil?Try applesauce. A new in-depthanalysis of recipes, reviews andsuggestions from an onlinefoodie site reveals that manyrecipes are more flexible thanstandard cookbooks suggest.

Researchers mined morethan 40,000 recipes and nearlytwo million reviews from thewebsite Allrecipes.com, investi-gating various aspects of cook-ing and ingredient preferences.“We wondered if the analysiswould let us see how flexiblerecipes are,” says co-authorLada Adamic of the Universityof Michigan in Ann Arbor.

Her team discovered thatthere’s a lot of wiggle room. Theanalysis, reported online atarXiv.org, identified several clus-ters of ingredients that can beswapped for one another.

For the uninitiated, usingless sugar than called for, orsubstituting or skipping an

ingredient altogether, could ruina dish. But distilling the collec-tive wisdom of recipe reviewsrevealed alternates that wouldallow even the culinary chal-lenged to improve a dish or tai-lor it to their tastes.

Adamic, Michigan’s Chun-Yuen Teng and Yu-Ru Lin ofHarvard and North-easternUniversity in Boston generateda list of the top 1,000 ingredi-ents, which accounted for 94.9per cent of the ingredients inthe database. The team notedheating methods, such as broil-ing and simmering, and variousfood processing techniques,both mechanical (such as grind-ing) and chemical (such as mar-inating). Recipe ratings andregional preferences within theUnited States were also takeninto account.

Then the team created ahuge diagram of ingredientsthat are frequently substitutedfor one another, yielding a net-work of clustered communitiesof swappable ingredients. Asweet potato community, forexample, includes yams,pumpkin, potatoes, parsnips

and butternut squash. Milk,butter, chicken broth and sugarall have recipe doppelgangers.And in some instances, drop-ping ingredients all togetherwon’t hurt a dish.

A second ingredient dia-gram connected complemen-tary ingredients, pairings thatare found together more oftenthan expected by chance. Thisnetwork split cleanly into two communities, one sweetand one savoury. The onlyother community detectedwas a small satellite clustercomprising alcoholic drinkingredients.

Recipes that had healthiersubstitutions were typicallyrated more highly by users, theresearchers found, suggestingthat making such swaps easierfor users to find — such as witha roll-over or pop-up on a web-site — would enhance userexperience. Restaurants or mealplanners might even learn athing or two, says Lin, perhapsexperimenting with healthierreplacements on menus.

Other foodie preferencesalso emerged. Recipes thatcalled for processing foods insome way, rather than just toss-ing ingredients together, wererated more favourably. This linkcould relate to a longstandinghypothesis regarding the devel-opment of bigger brains in theevolution of humans and ourhominid relatives, the teamspeculates. Processing foodmechanically and chemicallymakes extracting nutrients easi-er, reducing the cost of diges-tion. Such techniques may haveallowed more nutritionalresources to be allocated towardgrowing bigger brains.

“This research gives us a lotof insight into how differentpeople want to eat their food,whether they prefer quick orhealthy,” says VaidehiVenkatesan who, with Ali Minaiat the University of Cincinnati,is investigating the relationshipsamong various cuisines. “It is areally great paper.”

And the research projecthelped the scientists feel slightlymore at ease in their ownkitchens. “I’ve felt more com-fortable leaving out nutmeg,”Adamic said.

Nerve stimulation upsairflow during sleep inobstructive sleep apnoea

Hypoglossal nerve stim-ulation (HGNS) pro-duced marked dose-

related increases in airflow inobstructive sleep apnoea(OSA) patients without arous-ing them from sleep, accordingto a new study from the JohnsHopkins Sleep DisordersCentre. The study suggests thepotential therapeutic efficacyof HGNS across a broad rangeof sleep apnoea severity andoffers an alternative to contin-uous positive airway pressure(CPAP), the current mainstayof treatment for moderate tosevere OSA. The effectivenessof CPAP is often limited bypoor patient adherence.

“With HGNS, airflowincreased in all of our patients,and increased progressivelywith stimulus amplitude,”according to Alan R Schwartz,MD, medical director of theSleep Centre at Johns HopkinsBayview Medical Centre. “Theincreases in airflow weobserved were of sufficientmagnitude to eliminate inspi-ratory airflow limitation (IFL)in the majority of patients.”

The findings were pub-lished online ahead of printpublication in the AmericanThoracic Society’s AmericanJournal of Respiratory andCritical Care Medicine.

The study, which was sup-ported by device manufactur-er Apnex Medical, Inc,enrolled 30 middle-agedpatients with moderate andsevere obstructive sleepapnoea who were implantedwith a novel HGNS system.The pacemaker-like devicemonitors breathing patternsand is activated during sleepto stimulate the hypoglossalnerve, which controls mus-cles in the upper airway.

During the study, currentwas increased stepwise dur-ing non-REM sleep.Frequency and pulse widthwere fixed. At each currentlevel, stimulation was appliedon alternating breaths so thatresponses in inspiratory air-flow could be compared toadjacent un-stimulatedbreaths, and maximal inspira-tory airflow (VImax) and IFLwere measured.

“Once in a generation awoman comes alongwho changes every-thing. Tina Fey is not

that woman, but she met that womanonce and acted weird around her,” reads

the review on the jacket flap ofBossypants. The self-deprecating humour

is a recurring theme in her book. Butdon’t lead that mislead you. For theuninitiated, Tina Fey is a woman thatcomes along once in a generation.Best known for her portrayal of for-mer Alaska Governor Sarah Palin

on Saturday Night Live, Tina Feyis a seven-time Emmy Awardwinning actress, comedian,writer and producer, and thecreator of her own television

series – 30 Rock. Bossypants isn’t your usual

memoir. Though it’s largelychronological, it’s a little jagged and

non-linear, much like you’d get fromsketchy comedy that Fey is so used to

writing. Through twenty-five oddchapters, Bossypants follows Fey from

the time of her birth through hernerdy childhood, awkward teenage

years with a group of gay friends,summer experiences in theater toher career at Saturday Night Live

and finally, how she came to cre-ate 30 Rock.

That said, don’t expect anyheart-wrenching revelations or

confessions or even anything verypersonal from Fey. Even the twochapters dedicated to her experi-ences on SNL and 30 Rock , whichare the most interesting, are heavilycensored. The most likely explana-tion is that perhaps that Bossypantsis more about the making of Fey thewoman than Fey the comedian.

What stands out however, isFey’s own take-no-prisoners brandof feminism and a righteous indig-nation that runs through out thebook. For instance, she relates astory about her SNL co-star AmyPoehler and writes “I think of it

whenever someone says to me, ‘Jerry Lewis sayswomen aren’t funny’. Or ‘Christopher Hitchenssays women aren’t funny?’... Do you have any-thing to say to that? Yes. We don’t f****** care ifyou like it.”

Similarly, a question that’s she’s “freakingalways asked,” about the difference betweenmale and female comedians has her sardonicallyremarking, “The men urinate in cups.”

In another instance, Fey explains the title ofthe book. As SNL’s first ever female lead writerand as the star and producer of 30 Rock, she isneedless to say, is the Bossypants. But despitehaving conquered a niche for herself in themale-dominated world of comedy, she is contin-ually plagued by those who doubt if she really isthe boss, responsible for 200 people on the show.

So, in a chapter titled Juggle This, she ripsapart her retractors by writing, “Ever since Ibecame an executive producer of 30 Rock, peo-ple have asked me ... ‘Is it uncomfortable for youto be the person in charge?’ You know, in thesame way they say, ‘Gosh, Mr.Trump, is it awk-ward for you to be the boss of all these people?’”

Needless to say, there’s plenty more wherethat came from. So, if you like the sassy, venom-tongued humour of Fey on television, chancesare that you are going to dig the generouslyinterspersed array of one-liners in Bossypants.

I am woman,hear me roar

If you are looking for something easy to read, considerthis strong, funny and very witty memoir by Tina Feyaptly titled Bossypants

In 19th century France, the recklessindifference of the dominant mid-dle class towards any form of art

which didn’t have a moral purposeinfuriated artists and writers acrossEurope.

They sought to establish an orderwhere a work of art would be a self-sufficient entity, an end in itself. Therallying cry of the Aesthetic movement, as it came to be known,

was called l’art pour l’art (roughlytranslated as art for art’s sake). Butstrictly speaking, this was not thebeginning of the movement itself. Theroots of aestheticism can be tracedback to the late 1700s.

The German philosopherImmanuel Kant, for instance, wrote inhis book Critique of Judgment that apure aesthetic experience consists of“an objective contemplation of a formof art that pleases for its own sake.”Similarly, Edgar Allen Poe, describes inPoetic Principle (1850) that a greatpoem is one that’s a poem per se sansany didactic value.

French Aestheticism spilled overinto Victorian England courtesy ofWalter Pater who worshiped stylisticbeauty and high artifice. In its mostextreme form, poets like Flaubert andMallarme maintained that they fol-lowed the religion of “beauty” and thatlife was for art sake.

Proponents of the movementincluded greats like Oscar Wilde, TSEliot, JM Whistler, Yeats, TE Hulmeamong others. Even twentieth century

writers continue to argue the merits ofjudging art work by emphasis on itsintrinsic value like craft and artistryrather on its meaning or purpose.

The Aesthetic Experience Does art need to have been a purpose or meaning?Absolutely not, say proponents of the aesthetic movement

When we catch upwith Saraswati, sheis busy dissuadingan aspiring actor

who has come to seek heradvice on how to break intomainstream cinema. “Only ifyou have someone to feed andhouse you for a long timeshould you even consider tryingit,” she tells him, and adds, “Andoh, consign yourself to not mak-ing money for a long, longtime.” But just before he leaves,even as she urges him to re-con-sider, Saraswati assures him ofwhatever help she can offer.

Then she turns to us and

recounts her own experience asa struggler in Mumbai. “It wasshocking to see how desperatepeople were, and how willingthey were to put everything onthe line, including their dignityand self-worth to a score abreak. I would never have donethat. And luckily I didn’t haveto,” says Saraswati, who got herchance to work in commercialcinema, quite fortuitously.

After a stint in hospitalitymanagement, Saraswati went tothe University of Salford in theUK for a PGD in DocumentaryFilm-making. It was on herreturn that she went to Mumbaiin search of work and foundcinema come knock ing on her

door. She worked for a coupleof years assisting with twomovies which didn’t release, butgave her valuable experience.Her third project howeverbrought her luck. Saraswatidonned the role of an assistantdirector for the critically ac -claimed Morning Raaga, andeven designed costumes forShabana Azmi and Tabu in it.“The team was amazing and itwas a great learning for me. ButI realised that it was going to bethe last commercial movie andthat my heart lay in documen-taries. Incidentally, it was thro -ugh Morning Raaga that I metShankar Melkote who initiatedme into activism,” she says.

“At the end of day, if youcan’t speak your mind or doyour thing, there’s simply nopoint. In that sense, documen-taries spoil you. You can workon your own and at your ownpace and won’t have to dependon a hundred other people.There are no constraints,” saysSaraswati who has made over adozen documentaries aroundvarious social issues rangingfrom illegal gemstone miningand other environmental issuesto human rights. Some of herprominent works includeBehind the Glitter, Between theDevil and the Deep Sea, TheGreen Trap, Paradox City,Cutting off a Lifeline,

Vision2020, Playtime, CoastUnder Attack, Seeds ofSovereignty and mostly recently,a profile on an HCU professorand gay activist, My Dear GayTeacher. Apart from being a doc-umentary film-maker and socialactivist, Saraswati is also a tal-ented photographer, whoseworks were recently displayed ina well-received exhibition.“People often tell me that in myphotographs and films they seelife as it is. That it’s almost likethere’s no camera. That’s gratify-ing,” she says, smiling.Interestingly, the documentaryfilm-maker is camera shy! “I getconscious in front of the cam-era,” she sheepishly admits.

Activist and filmmaker SaraswatiKavula believes in capturing lifeas is. Her documentaries areknown for their raw and honestdepictions of various social issues.We engage her in a tete-a-tete PI

live sedentary lifestyles canshorten their lifespan by

up to seven years.

It's worrying but not inevitable.Moderate to high-intensity exercise

can reduce body fat percentage.Spending 20 to 30 minutes a day

exercising without equipment canbe hugely beneficial to your health.

The fast-paced lifestyles we lead

are often a barrier to exercise, withmany people using the old excuseof being too tired at the end of the

day. So with a significant amount oftime spent at work, here are a five

useful tips to help you fit someexercise into your daily routine.

Bearing in mind none ofthese will make you an

athlete, but will keep you ingood shape providing yourdiet isn’t appalling.n Exercise and dance DVDs.n Home exercise equipment.n Yoga – classes or at home.

n Pilates.n Stop-start sports like tennis,

rugby, football, squash,badminton etc.

n HIIT workouts – these aremy favourites – full bodyworkout in less than 30minutes and can be done in

any 3 by 2 m location.n Jogging/Sprinting/Running

– preferably in an HIT for-mation.

n Hiking.n Combat/military style train-

ing.n The GYM.

1) Walking raises your heartrate and speeds up thechemical reactions withinthe body, which burns calo-

ries. Use the stairs!2) Stand up

each timeyou

make or take a phone call.Not only does this burnmore calories than sittingdown, it is also makes yousound more confident overthe phone.3) Get a work workoutbuddy. Find somebody whoshares a similar exercisegoal and motivate each

other to get physicallyactive.

4) Diet is impor-tant.

Consume a good balance ofcarbohydrates, proteins anda small amount of fat. Ahandful of nuts and driedfruit will be far more benefi-cial than biscuits or pastries.5) Finally, here's a quick 10-minute metabolism-boostingworkout — a great way tostart your lunch break:

10 squats10 star jumps10 press-ups10 tuck jumps10 triceps dipsRepeat the circuit as

many times as you can inthe time. Four is good. Fiveis great.

Contending that the story of a film isits real hero, veteran actor Om Puri

has said that he finds it ridiculous thatstars walk away with the biggest shareof a project’s budget. “The share whichthey are given is ridiculous. If a star canmake a film hit, then why is it that someof their films flop? It happens witheveryone whether it is Shah Rukh Khanor Salman Khan,” the 61-year-old said.

Pointing out that films are always aresult of team work with everyoneincluding directors, cameramen andtechnicians involved with its success,he said that recently the SRK starrermuch hyped film Ra.One failed to liveup to the expectations only because ofa weak script. Film-maker Ken Ghoshadmitted that he was also unhappywith the trend of paying film starsmore than script writers. PTI

Fake profiles on Twitter seemto be giving sleepless nightsto Nayanthara, Samanthaand Kajal Aggarwal. Irked

by this menace, all three actresseshave categorically denied havingan online presence on social net-working sites especially Twitter.

actress who said that she was noton twitter. Nayanthara andSamantha are said to be contem-plating some sort of action againstthese miscreants who are alreadyconnecting with these actresses’friends in the industry and tweet-ing wrong information.

A man takes his Rottweiler to the vetand says, "My dog's cross-eyed, isthere anything you can do for him?""Well," says the vet, "let's have alook at him." So he picks the dog upand examines his eyes, then checkshis teeth. Finally, he says "I'm goingto have to put him down." "What?Because he's cross-eyed?" "No, because he's really heavy."

Apparently, one in five people in theworld are Chinese. And there are five people in my family, so it must be one
