Eat more Chocolates
Tuesday, May 15, 2007
Eating Chocolates are good for health, if taken in an appropriate amount. But eating chocolate is much better, if you don't know already. Recent study shows that chocolate is better than a passionate kiss, causing a more intense and longer-lasting buzz, and doubling the heart rate. Oh My !!
According to a recent study conducted in UK by Dr. David Lewis, "There is no doubt that chocolate beats kissing hands down when it comes to providing a long-lasting body and brain buzz. A buzz that, in many cases, lasted four times as long as the most passionate kiss."
The volunteers had electrodes attached to their scalps during the tests and the researchers compared their resting heart rates with those during the chocolate and kissing tests. Of course Dark Chocolate was the one savored and I bet you wont get the same results if it were just another candy. I love the ones from Hershey's - they're simply amazing.
Anyways hope you got another reason to eat more chocolates

Visit Places - Drive, Fly or Swim
Thursday, March 29, 2007
Playing around on Google is fun. Playing with Google is double fun. People visit places, they drive, they fly, take the train. But what would you say if you're asked to swim? Amrita visited London recently (she's gotta blog with a detailed write up and 'more' snaps to prove that though) ; I thought hey - it would be a good idea to visit London - spend your vacation there. It would be a dream come true fomme.
So I open up the much reliable Gmaps and here's what I find ....
Pay attention to - Item #9 and you'd see what I mean. And then #10 asks me to take a "slight right". Pay toll and reach my destination "London" after traveling 3,722 mi in about 29 days 6 hours. I wonder, amongst other things, how they'd have calculated my swimming speed :P.
