Hot way to Healthy Heart
Drink hot water after meals
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold
water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will
slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will
break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It
will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to
cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

SEBI likely to ban short sales
Short sales ban likely: SEBI
VRvisionaries Bureau
Mumbai: The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) is likely to lift the ban on short sales. This move has become inevitable with the global crisis and the sudden plunge of the sensex below 10K first time since July 2006.
“All the options are open now. The regulator is studying the date before taking a final decision,” the SEBI official told our correspondent.
Short selling or "shorting" refers to the practice of selling shares that the seller does not own at the time of the sale with the intent of buying it later at a lower price. Short-sellers attempt to profit from expected decline in share prices.
The market regulator has so far maintained that there is no need to ban short selling, ignoring growing pressure from a section of brokers to do so. These brokers believe that a cartel is "shorting" to pull the market down at a time when Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs), under pressure in their home countries, have been selling consistently since September 15, when Lehman Brothers, one of the largest investment banks in the US, filed for bankruptcy.
