palm's long-awaited new handhelds have finally been given a birthday. the roughly us$110 palm, called the zire, will be released on october 7. the zire will run os 4.1 and will have two–not four–hardware buttons and 2 mb of ram. two more handhelds will be announced on october 28. one will feature os 5, integrated bluetooth, and a texas instruments omap arm-compatible processor (the tungsten?). the other, presumably not running os 5 according to zdnet–though i don't know why palm would release this product with 4.1–integrates gprs and voice capabilities. it will primarily be a wireless data terminal, though, and not a phone, though it will be able to place calls. this handheld will come with software for accessing microsoft exchange and lotus domino e-mail servers, even within a vpn. no one's talking price on the two higher-end palms yet. all of these palms are totally redesigned, and should only vaguely resemble current and older palm handhelds. the designers were actually hired from sony. palm is also getting agressive in its marketing, with such bold moves as selling handhelds in grocery stores. we'll see if that works out. well, i for one am intrigued. once i used a pocket pc i didn't think i would ever go back to palm. i did, though, for a short time. i didn't like it, and i went running back to the pocket pc platform. honestly, i haven't found a pda that works for me yet. my biggest problem is internet browsing on each platform. my best experience so far is with the nokia 9290, but the connection speeds are horrible. the opera browser on the zaurus was a very close second, though connecting via 802.11b on broadband is probably an unfair advantage. anyway, i am eager to see these new palms. i left palm because 1) the pdas were slow, 2)they didn't really do multimedia well, and 3) the internet browsers were horrible. all that has a potential to change now. read much more at zdnet. palminfocenter also has more info.

|zire? (8:20am est fri sep 20 2002)
why would i this handheld. it has an older os, no color and 2 mb of ram. no mention of expansion slots our what it will use for connecting to older peripherals.
what i need is color, ram and espandability. i have thought about pocket pc. i just don't care for the windows format. i like palm's os.
i will wait.
|why? because… (8:52am est fri sep 20 2002)
there is a market for low end without any kind of expansion…
why do the big 3 still make really cheap cars? because people want a car, they don't need them since there are other means to get around (bus, train, subway etc). ask anyone, once they use a pda, they need a pda. if they can't afford $400 for the "works" then they'll par $100 for something, anything.
my 2 cents. – by no bs
|hfo2 (9:32am est fri sep 20 2002)
some companies (like mine, for example) buy pdas for certain employees (mostly managers). the enterprize market is probably a non-negligible piece of palm's pie, and the enterprizes aren't gonna spring for the fancy color, expansion slots, or misc extras. whatever's cheapest and fills the bill usually wins in this scenario.
it's prolly useful for students on student budgets too.
|hmm… (10:47am est fri sep 20 2002)
is it just me, or would that photo of the zire look perfectly right with a gray apple on it instead of the palm logo? looks like an ibook fetus to me… – by nostradumbass

|apologies (10:50am est fri sep 20 2002)
sorry about the duplicate post there, the submit script on this article seems to be hosed. and, of course, my apologies for this apology. back to you… – by nostradumbass
|still kinda pricey for 2mb ram (3:22pm est fri sep 20 2002)
yeh, there's no newly introduced units matching that price, but there's plenty of older units with more functionality selling in the same price range.
i could see 2m in a sub-$100 model, but this one's about $20 too high. – by argent
|nice move by palm (6:12am est sun sep 22 2002)
palm continues to target a user base that will one day move up to better equipped palms.. this will be $75 by xmas, and will sell very well… it is the potential palm user base that they are after…. – by andrew
|yeah.. it's an i-book fetus.. (7:50am est wed sep 25 2002)
i got the same impression when see it. we face another apple-induced industrial design trend? thats a shame, really.. despite the good work of apple..

|palm zire (9:08am est wed jun 25 2003)
i don't consider myself a geek. i'm just a busy mom with 2 busy kids and work part-time. my zire has been a godsend to me. i have gotten rid of my day planner. this is not for a full time business person. this is for someone like me. – by ong haired mom

Case Study: E-Commerce Websites Experience Dramatic Sales Increases After Implementing GeoTrust® SSL Certificates
Founded in 1997, neoverve is a specialized e-commerce services provider that offers custom web design, web development, search engine marketing and optimization, and systems integration to small and medium online businesses. In addition to providing e-commerce expertise, what sets neoverve apart from its competitors is its focus on building strong relationships with its clients by offering superior technology solutions and high-quality customer service.
Challenge: Establish Trust to Help Clients Succeed
With almost 15 years of web design and development experience, the expert team at neoverve understands that online security is a key component of any successful e-commerce website. "Selling online is all about building trust with shoppers," says Kurt Davey, neoverve's founder and CEO. "A professionally designed site goes a long way to instill trust, but shoppers also need to know that their credit card information and other sensitive data is protected before they're ready to make a purchase."
In order to enable its clients to secure their online transactions, neoverve wanted to offer SSL certificates that were not only cost-effective, but were also easy to manage for the neoverve staff and the company's customers alike. "Many of our clients are small to medium sized businesses that have much bigger things to worry about than their SSL Certificate," says Davey. "Our clients depend on us to give them all of the tools they need to help their business thrive online, so finding an affordable, no-hassle SSL Certificate solution was very important to us."
Solution: Easy-to-Manage Security that Outperforms the Competition
When neoverve first began offering SSL Certificates more than 10 years ago, Davey selected a different provider to secure transactions on client websites, but soon discovered that GeoTrust offered better name recognition at a better price. "GeoTrust simply outperformed our other SSL Certificate provider," he says. "More people recognized the GeoTrust name, which was extremely important to our merchants, and we found that the solution offered the best combination of awareness, trust, and value. It was just the perfect fit for us."
GeoTrust also offers quick and easy authentication and installation, allowing neoverve to acquire and issue new SSL Certificates in minutes, not hours or days. "We highly recommend GeoTrust SSL Certificates to all of our clients. In fact, every new store we create comes with a GeoTrust certificate," says Davey. "With GeoTrust, obtaining SSL Certificates is incredibly fast, so our clients are able to start selling more rapidly."
Results: Improving Sales at E-Commerce Websites, Almost Overnight
Since neoverve began offering GeoTrust SSL Certificates, the firm's clients have been able to secure web-based transactions and establish trust with their customers, helping many clients improve sales dramatically. "The moment we install GeoTrust SSL Certificates and place the trust seal on our merchants' sites, they see remarkable sales increases," Davey says.
Davey has many examples to choose from, but points to one client in particular to illustrate these successes. "One of our merchants sells specialty salts and spices and other gourmet foods. When they came to us, their site was not performing very well, so we relaunched their site with a GeoTrust SSL Certificate," he says. "After the new site launched, the merchant called and told me that they had done more in sales over one weekend than they had done in the previous ninety days."
Not only does neoverve provide its clients with GeoTrust SSL Certificates, but the firm also uses GeoTrust TrueBusiness ID with EV (extended validation) to secure transactions on its own website. "We sell our e-commerce solutions and some related products online in our own store, so obviously we needed to secure those transactions," says Davey. "We've been using GeoTrust SSL Certificates on our site for 10 years, so we can recommend them to our clients with complete confidence."
By offering SSL Certificates from GeoTrust, neoverve has also been able to enhance its suite of products and services with a highly effective, no-hassle security solution, giving the firm an advantage over its competitors. "Most merchants we deal with aren't experts in e-commerce. They may have heard of an SSL Certificate, but they have no idea how to get or install one," Davey says. "Our clients rely on us to guide them through these complex issues, and GeoTrust makes it easy for us to help our merchants succeed. That's really what it's all about for us."
Future: Encouraging Clients to Switch to Extended Validation
Based on the success of neoverve and its clients, Davey will continue to cultivate the firm's long-standing relationship with GeoTrust. "I see us continuing to be a GeoTrust reseller indefinitely," he says. The firm is also encouraging its clients to upgrade to GeoTrust SSL Certificates that feature extended validation (EV). "The EV SSL Certificates are fantastic. They allow us to provide our clients with an even more cost-effective protection for their sites, so we're recommending them more and more," says Davey. "I look forward to working with GeoTrust to continue helping our clients achieve their goals."

In August 2015 I published Maximum Education – The Ultimate Guide to Optimal Academics. Somewhat to my surprise, the book became a #1 best seller on Amazon in the Education category and continues to sell every day. Thank you!
This book is essentially a guide on how to "do school" and how to study. The book was born from years of working with students in a variety of subjects and seeing the recurring pattern that some / part / all of the reason that they were struggling in Math or Science or whatever was that they were unorganized and they did not have a plan.
So I started to to make handouts and exercises for my students to help them organize, and to help them use their time better and to help them plan better… and you know what.. it worked! I took the handouts and compiled a workbook that I copied on the trusty mAke the grAde office copy machine. Finally, a parent of a student suggested that I make this into a book… and so Maximum Education – The Ultimate Guide to Optimal Academics was born.
Summarily the book covers 3 main topics:
Time management
Information management
A daily action plan
There are also several sections with suggestions for many other academic needs such as writing term papers, studying for standard tests like the SAT and ACT exams, writing college application essays, preparing for midterms and finals, etc etc…
So here are the updates: Recently I was interviewed by a national radio syndicate about the book which is available here, and Maximum Education – The Ultimate Guide to Optimal Academics is now being converted into a video class that anyone can access and follow at their own pace. The course should be available by August 15th.
At this point I am looking for suggestions. If you have the book and you have suggestions…
What should be included in the video?
What should be emphasized?
What helped you the most?
What was the least helpful?
What you be willing to provide a video testimonial?
Please contact Dr Steven Greene and provide feedback.
To summarize:
Listen to the radio interview here
If you don't have one, get your copy of Maximum Education here
Thank you for you past and present and continued support.

It's time for your favorite "lazy Friday" segment, "This Time Last Year." Basically, I post what I was blogging about this time last year. Catchy title. Anyway, here's what was blogged about in regards to a night out on the scripted town with Teefs and Tats Pats….this time last year.
Me gusta when Teefs and Tats Patridge head out for a night on the town! To me, these two are like the sluttier and toothier Olsen Twins. Is that a word? Sluttier? It is. Toothier is too. I'm adding both to the dictionary…and the almanac…just because. Anydeadeyes, Teefs and Tats Pats were all beaver teeth, covered beaver, sleepy eyes, and awkward smiles at the premiere of "Into the Blue 2″ in sunny Los Angeles, CA. Audrina was sporting her best 8th grade graduation gown and her sister, Casey, made sure to show off her feminine tattoos. Do you ever think that the photographers get pissed at these two because they never know where they're looking? As a sidenote there are thousands of actual actors out of work.

The holiday season has arrived, and with it, plenty of occasions to gather with friends and family over a good meal and a few drinks. With so much opportunity to share a glass or three of holiday cheer—a champagne toast, wine with dinner, after-dinner liqueur—how can you make sure you don't get too carried away with the holiday spirits? If you are trying to cut down on your drinking, the triggering effects of such a festive time of year may be particularly concerning. Here are a few strategies for curtailing your indulgence in this season of abundance.
Think before you drink
As you consider attending that cocktail party or accepting that dinner invitation, also set some mindful intentions around your involvement in any celebration. Set goals. Create clear expectations and limitations for yourself for low-risk drinking behaviors. Decide what days you will not drink, how many days a week you will drink, and how many drinks you will have on those days.
According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), low-risk drinking for men is no more than four drinks in one day, and no more than 14 drinks in a week. For women, it's no more than three drinks on any day, and no more than seven drinks in a week.
Just say "no"
As you cruise the party circuit, you may be offered a drink on a day you've committed to not drinking, or at a time when you've already reached your limit or simply don't want one. Have a polite, convincing "No, thanks" at the ready. Respond to these offers quickly and without hesitation, and you will be less likely to give in or to think of excuses to accept one after all. You might also review this short module to help you build drink refusal skills.
Know what's in your glass
At any festivity, if you accept a drink, know exactly what you're sipping from your glass.
Be conscious of content. The amount of alcohol in a glass of wine, a bottle of beer, or a mixed drink can vary quite a bit. If you want to drink less, choose wines, beers, or cocktails with lower alcohol percentages when possible. Check out these lists of wine types from low to high alcohol by volume (ABV), top-rated low-alcohol beers, and recommendations for low-alcohol cocktails.
Know how much is enough
To imbibe carefully and consciously, it's just as important to know the quantity of drinks you're enjoying as it is the quality. Keep track of how much you drink. Find a way that will work most consistently for you: Carry a drinking tracker card in your wallet, make notations on a calendar or in your digital notes, or check out one of these top drink-counting apps. Writing down each drink before you drink it will increase your awareness and may help you slow down when needed.
Count and measure
Know the standard drink sizes, so you can count your drinks accurately. Away from home, it can be hard to measure or keep track, especially with mixed drinks, and at times, you may be getting more alcohol than you think. With wine, ask the host or server not to "top off" your partially filled glass.
Moderate the effects
Accompany your drinking with some complementary habits that will help balance the alcohol's effects. Include food. Don't drink on an empty stomach. Make sure to nibble and nosh while you sip and savor. Food will cause the alcohol to be absorbed into your system more slowly.
Pace and space
When you do drink, pace yourself. Sip slowly. Have no more than one standard drink per hour. And make sure to space your drinks, make every other drink a non-alcoholic one, such as water, soda, or juice.
Make other plans
If these strategies prove difficult for maintaining the goals you've set for yourself around drinking or you decide you don't want to drink at all during the holidays, you may need to accept party invitations wisely or decline them altogether.
Avoid "triggers"
Pay attention to what triggers your urge to drink. Is it a certain group of friends? A particular atmosphere or environment? Certain activities, times of day, or feelings? If there are triggers that encourage you to drink even when you don't want to, avoid them. Plan something else to do instead of drinking or stay home. If drinking at home is a problem, keep little or no alcohol there.
Handle urges
When you cannot avoid a trigger and an urge hits, remind yourself of your reasons for limiting your intake (keep a little note handy for yourself that you can reference), or talk things through with someone you trust. While it's natural to struggle with these feelings, you can choose to accept them and process them without giving in, knowing that it will soon pass. You can also check out this short module to help you handle urges to drink.
The bottom line
If alcohol already plays a large social and emotional role in your life, maybe you would do better to avoid the frenzy of indulgent holiday activity and drinking that often goes along with it. Instead, give yourself the gift of new, healthy activities, hobbies, and relationships that will serve you not only during the holiday season but well into the new year and beyond.

"Today, more women are their family's main breadwinner than ever before. Women are nearly half of our Nation's workers, and they are increasingly among the most skilled. At the same time, more than 60 percent of women with children under the age of 5 participate in the labor force. This increasing participation of women in our workforce has bolstered our economy and strengthened our families, and it has demonstrated that the policies that benefit women and working families benefit all of us." – President Barack Obama
It is exciting that women are making an increasing impact in the workforce, the economy, and the world of finance as well. Who are some of the women leading the way in the finance industry? Today's post highlights four women who have made significant impacts in the world of finance to a range of wealth classes.
These women have received many awards and recognitions for their hard work and dedication to helping solve money problems both large and small. Their support of gender equality in the workplace, guidance to both men and women on how to grow wealth, financial advice on how to become financially independent, and their beliefs in preparing for retirement, has improved the lives of many. Here is a look into their history, accomplishments, and philosophies on money.
Candace Bahr
"In a way, managing your finances is like managing your weight. It's never too late to take care of yourself. You just have to be ready to do it."1 – Candace Bahr
Candace Bahr is a well-respected financial coach, author, and Certified Divorce Financial Analyst. She cofounded the Women's Institute for Financial Education (WIFE) about 25 years ago with Ginita Wall. WIFE is the oldest non-profit organization specifically focused on educating women on financial independence with the motto "a man is not a financial plan."
Bahr is also a co-founder of a wealth management firm that aims to help women build and protect their assets during, or following divorce, or after the death of a spouse. She's led corporate seminars at Hewlett Packard and Nordstrom, given speeches at various foundations and charity groups, appeared on CNBC and MSNBC, and has been quoted in many publications such as Money Magazine, The New York Times, and Fortune.2
Candace Bahr encourages both men and women to make saving for retirement automatic. By having money automatically deposited into retirement accounts, you don't have to think about it or worry about the temptations of spending that money on something else, and those investments can end up accumulating quite significantly over time. She also encourages people to "practice retirement before retirement."3
For example, let's say you have a goal to live off of 80% of your income in retirement. If you're currently in your 50s or 60s and are living off of 120% of your income, don't assume that as soon as you turn 65 you can suddenly switch gears and live off of only 80%. If you try reducing your expenses before retirement, you have the chance to see how it feels to live off of less to better prepare yourself for a lifestyle adjustment later on. And reducing your expenses before retirement also opens up more possibilities to free up more money now that you can invest for your future as well.
Jean Chatzky
"Why is saving specifically for something so crucial? Because humans are way too focused on the short term to the detriment of the long. By definition, saving – for anything – requires us to not get things now so that we can get bigger ones later. That's hard. Our brains are hard wired to prefer the here and now. But it can be done, and it's much, much easier when you know specifically what those down-the-road items happen to be. In fact, it's easier yet, when you can see them."4 – Jean Chatzky
Jean Chatzky is a popular financial journalist, motivational speaker, and author. She is the Finance Ambassador for AARP, financial editor of the Today show on NBC, RLTV host of Money Matters with Jean Chatzky, and author of eight books. She's had appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show, The View, and often writes articles on personal finance in Redbook, Glamour, Women's Health, Prevention, and USA Weekend.5
Chatzky encourages people to have fun while saving because having financial goals is not just about fulfilling needs. Working hard is also about finding ways to incorporate enjoyable things we want too, in moderation of course. She also suggests having specific reasons for saving and to visualize goals by putting up pictures of what you're saving for as encouragement and motivation.
Perhaps a picture of a condo on the beach for retirement or your child in a graduation cap on your desk may inspire you to stay on track with your savings goals. Having specific reasons for saving such as an emergency fund for healthcare expenses or a retirement in Costa Rica may also bring more meaning to your financial goals.6
Mary Callahan Erdoes
"Women can do whatever they want in the workplace equal to men. … It's how we position ourselves and the poise that we have. … That's often the thing that we don't train people enough on."7 – Mary Callahan Erdoes
"There is no substitute for hard work. There is a little luck along the way, but there is no substitute for really super-hard work, first in, last out."8 – Mary Callahan Erdoes
Highlighted by Forbes in 2013 as one of The World's 100 Most Powerful Women, Mary Callahan Erdoes is CEO of JPMorgan Chase Asset Management where she oversees more than $2.3 trillion in client assets. She advocates improving work environments for women and addressing gender imbalances in senior positions and was named the World's Most Influential Money Manager by Bloomberg Markets magazine in 2013.9
Erdoes created a ReEntry program at JPMorgan that helps women come back into the asset management workforce after long periods of absence for reasons such as raising a family or working in a different industry. She recognizes the challenges of coming back into asset management after an extended gap period and the intensive ReEntry program helps prospective returnees sharpen their skills over 14 weeks and prepare for new employment.10
Suze Orman
"People first, then money, then things." – Suze Orman
"In all realms of life it takes courage to stretch your limits, express your power, and fulfill your potential… it's no different in the financial realm."11 – Suze Orman
USA Today describes Suze Orman as a "one-woman financial advice powerhouse." She is an instantly recognizable TV host, motivational speaker, best selling author, and financial advisor.
Orman began her career in finance at Merrill Lynch and then Prudential. After leaving Prudential in 1987, she founded the Suze Orman Financial Group and went on to write nine books as well as produce multiple CDs, DVDs, and downloadable kits to help people with their finances.
She has appeared on multiple episodes of The Oprah Winfrey Show and is the contributing editor for O magazine. Orman held her own TV show The Suze Orman Show for about 13 years, and is currently developing a new series with Telepictures Productions called Suze Orman's Money Wars.12
Some of the highlights of her many accomplishments13 are below:
• Two-time Emmy Award-winning television host.
• Most successful fundraiser for Public Television.
• Winner of eight Gracie awards for her contributions on TV and radio for women.
• Top 10 winner on Forbes magazine's 2013 most influential celebrities list
• Recognized in 2010 by Forbes as one of the "The World's 100 Most Powerful Women."
• Two-time winner in the TIME 100, The World's Most Influential People in 2008 and 2009.
• Named one of the top ten motivational speakers worldwide by Business Week in 2007.
A few of Suze Orman's philosophies are encouraging people to get a grip on reality and learn how to differentiate between wants versus needs and to avoid making mistakes with overspending. She also believes that saving for retirement is a top priority, even higher than paying bills, in order to maximize company matching.
Other priorities that she emphasizes are paying mortgage and rent expenses, student loan debt, utilities, and basic groceries all before paying off credit card bills. Additionally, she encourages people to create a separate savings account specifically for emergencies and not to use retirement accounts or checking accounts in this manner.
These four women have years of experience and a wealth of financial advice that has filled thousands of pages of books, articles, and airwaves. Common themes include prioritizing saving for retirement, investing early and for the long term, separating needs from wants, encouraging both men and women to take control of their finances, and creating specific financial goals.

ST. LOUIS — Five Rams players used the team's pregame introductions to offer a show of support for nearby Ferguson before Sunday's game against the Oakland Raiders.
As the offense was introduced, Rams tight end Jared Cook and receivers Kenny Britt, Stedman Bailey, Chris Givens and Tavon Austin stopped near the tunnel and raised their hands in a nod to the fatal shooting of teenager Michael Brown by Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson on Aug. 9. (Wilson's resignation from the police force was announced Saturday.)
"We kind of came collectively together and decided we wanted to do something," Cook said. "We haven't been able to go down to Ferguson to do anything because we have been busy. Secondly, it's kind of dangerous down there and none of us want to get caught up in anything.
"So we wanted to come out and show our respect to the protests and the people who have been doing a heck of a job around the world."
Earlier this week, the Rams spent time lamenting the fact that there wasn't much they could do to help right now with the unrest in Ferguson. But Cook said he plans to go to Ferguson once things settle down.
"My sister, brother-in-law, sister-in-law — all of them went this past week for Thanksgiving," Cook said. "They came back and reported to me about the things they saw and what was going on around there. Definitely, I will be making a trip to Ferguson."
Britt claimed that he and his teammates were not "taking sides" with their display.
"We wanted to show that we are organized for a great cause and something positive comes out of it," Britt said. "That's what we hope we can make happen. That's our community. We wanted to let the community know that we support the community."
Despite that intention, the St. Louis Police Officers Association released a statement Sunday night decrying the players' display.
"The SLPOA is calling for the players involved to be disciplined and for the Rams and the NFL to deliver a very public apology," the statement read in part.
"I know that there are those that will say that these players are simply exercising their First Amendment rights," SLPOA business manager Jeff Roorda said in the statement. "Well I've got news for people who think that way, cops have first amendment rights too, and we plan to exercise ours. I'd remind the NFL and their players that it is not the violent thugs burning down buildings that buy their advertiser's products. It's cops and the good people of St. Louis and other NFL towns that do. Somebody needs to throw a flag on this play. If it's not the NFL and the Rams, then it'll be cops and their supporters."
Multiple players and coach Jeff Fisher spoke during the week about trying to offer a three-hour or so distraction from what's happening in their community.
But Cook said that the Rams, who won a 52-0 rout over the Raiders, did not necessarily need to win in order to cause a diversion.
"I wouldn't consider it necessarily a diversion, because [the unrest in Ferguson] is an important issue as well," Cook said.
On Sunday, the Rams offered a few other small ways to offer support.
The Rams players, coaches and staff also locked arms during the National Anthem in a sign of support for the community.
In addition, the Rams took some steps to reach out to those affected by the unrest. The team hosted small business owners who lost their businesses to fires and volunteers who helped the ensuing cleanup efforts at the game. The team also ran the PSA at halftime called "St. Louis Stands Together."
"The organization has been doing those type of things without the intention of getting recognition," Fisher said. "They're just doing it to help. I'm just glad that we could put together a great win here today."
The Rams also planned to play a series of public service announcements featuring Fisher and some players discussing how to build a stronger St. Louis.
Leading up to Sunday, there had been some speculation that the Rams-Raiders game might be moved from the Edward Jones Dome because of the unrest, but the game went on as scheduled with additional security in place.

Nutritional Genomics, or Nutrigenomics, is a multidisciplinary science which deals with the study of how our food interacts with our genes and how our genes determine our response to our food or certain chemicals found in our food. Nutrigenomics is being hailed as a science which has the potential to prevent, alleviate or even treat certain chronic diseases, by simply making slight changes to what we eat.
The human body is made up of trillions of tiny, microscopic, living entities called "cells." These cells are the embodiment of the human body as a whole. The activities that our body performs are actually the sum total of all the activities performed by our individual cells. This means that if even a single cell is removed from our body and is given the right conditions, say, in a laboratory, it is capable of independent growth and of performing all the functions of life, viz. growth, nutrition, excretion and reproduction.
The cell harbours various intracellular organelles, pretty much similar to our body organs and systems. The activities of the cell are divided amongst these organelles. An organelle called the "nucleus" is the chief amongst them all because it controls the activities of all other organelles and the cell as a whole. It does so due to the presence within it of a long thread-like molecule called "DNA (De-oxy ribo nucleic acid)." Although the name might not sound fascinating, the DNA is by far the most enthralling and mesmerizing molecule in all of Creation. It is called the "Master Molecule of Life." A DNA has on its extremely long structure all the information needed for performing various life processes. That is, everything that is ever needed to run a cell and a body as a whole is written on the DNA in a coded language.
DNA can be compared to an Instruction Manual of life. Just as a manual might have separate chapters or sections to help understand various aspects of a machine, for example; the DNA also has discrete segments, each of which has instructions for a particular activity. These segments are called "genes." Scientists believe that human DNA might have as many as 20,000 genes which together run the entire show. The information that is written on the genes is read by an elaborate process inside the cell and this information is used to manufacture proteins. Proteins are the functional and structural units of cells and they are the ones who will get the work done as per information written on the genes.
Scientists have found out that certain chemicals in the food that we consume have the ability to attach to certain genes inside our cells and thus bring about modifications in the way these genes work. They may switch the genes "ON" or "OFF" or have an impact on the final outcome of their activities; i.e. protein synthesis. Researchers have found that certain foods can make us susceptible to certain diseases and disorders; not due directly to the foods, but because we have certain genes with which these foods interact. Research has proved that dietary chemicals have the ability to alter gene expression (when the information on the gene is read and protein is made using the information, it is said to be gene expression).
The conceptual basis for this new branch of genomic research can best be summarized with the following five tenets. [Kaput and Rodriguez,Physiol. Genomics, 2004]
1) Common dietary chemicals act on the human genome, either directly or indirectly, to alter gene expression or structure.
2) Under certain circumstances and in some individuals, diet can be a serious risk factor for a number of diseases.
3) Some diet-regulated genes (and their normal, common variants) are likely to play a role in the onset, incidence, progression, and/or severity of chronic diseases.
4) The degree to which diet influences the balance between healthy and disease states may depend on an individual's genetic makeup.
5) Dietary intervention based on knowledge of nutritional requirement, nutritional status, and genotype (i.e., "individualized nutrition") can be used to prevent, mitigate or cure chronic disease.
From the above it is quite clear that what we eat determines how our body will respond to it and that food can be a causative agent for the onset of many diseases and disorders through a variety of ways. Nutrigenomics holds a promise of "personalised health." We have convincing scientific proof that no two human beings will react to a food (or a chemical contained in it) in a similar manner. We can use this science and its ever-expanding library of research to better understand the patient's genetic make-up vis-à-vis his/her diet and its effect on his/her health.
Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genes affect a person's response to drugs. This relatively new field combines pharmacology (the science of drugs) and genomics (the study of genes and their functions) to develop effective, safe medications and doses that will be tailored to a person's genetic makeup.
It deals with the influence of acquired and inherited genetic variation on drug response in patients by correlating gene expression or single-nucleotide polymorphisms with pharmacokinetics (drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination) and pharmacodynamics (effects mediated through a drug's biological targets)
Pharmacogenomics aims to develop rational means to optimize drug therapy, with respect to the patients' genotype, to ensure maximum efficiency with minimal adverse effects. Through the utilization of pharmacogenomics, it is hoped that pharmaceutical drug treatments can deviate from "one-dose-fits-all" approach. Pharmacogenomics also attempts to eliminate the trial-and-error method of prescribing, allowing physicians to take into consideration their patient's genes, the functionality of these genes, and how this may affect the efficacy of the patient's current or future treatments. Pharmacogenomics can explain a patient's response or lack thereof to a treatment, or act as a predictive tool; it assists to achieve better treatment outcomes, greater efficacy, minimization of the occurrence of drug toxicities and adverse drug reactions (ADRs).

Consumer group wants simple and cheap bank overdraft charges
Published 17 January 2012
Consumer group Which? is calling on the new financial regulator (FCA) to put an end to "exorbitant and complicated" overdraft fees. The British Bankers' Association response is simple: don't use an unauthorised overdraft.
Pro-consumer group Which? wants to see an end to "complicated and exorbitant" overdraft charges for banking customers and has lambasted the new financial regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), calling it the banks' "lapdog".
The strong words were prompted by its own research. It asked a group of consumers to work out how much a range of high street bank accounts would charge for an unauthorised overdraft, or bounced payments.
The task left the group stumped - they only managed to work out seven of the 48 examples correctly. One of the group was a PhD maths student. Either education really isn't what it used to be, or consumers are confused and unaware of how much they could be charged, as the fee structures are too complicated.
Banks either charge a 'simple' daily overdraft fee or interest on current accounts that are overdrawn with permission. Things become complicated when you consider additional fees for an 'unplanned' overdraft - an overdraft that hasn't been given the 'OK' by your bank - plus the interest, plus any penalties for bounced payments.
Overall it was found that there are vast differences in the ways different banks charge for an unauthorised overdraft - with some charging twice as much as others.
Which? is calling on the FCA to stop what it calls 'unfair' overdraft charges and make comparing bank account charges easier, to help consumers make informed choices. A noble cause, but Which? probably won't win any friends for calling the Watchdog a 'lapdog'!
The British Bankers' Association BBA responded in a statement: "Charges for unauthorised overdrafts can be avoided completely simply by keeping your account in credit or within an agreed overdraft facility.
"Most customers don't go into an unauthorised overdraft. Those who do so regularly should consider asking for an overdraft limit or review the way they operate their account."
A spokesperson for thinkmoney commented: "The advice seems to be, if you manage your money well, there's no real need to ever use an unauthorised overdraft. However, life can sometimes get in the way and occasionally, accidents happen.
A spokesperson for thinkmoney commented: "The way many banks currently charge for things like missed payments and unauthorised overdrafts can be quite confusing, and a lot of people would benefit from knowing exactly how much they'll pay each month.
"If you would like a bank account with no hidden charges that doesn't allow you to go overdrawn, so therefore avoiding penalties, and doesn't charge for bounced payments, thinkmoney may be suitable for you. For a single account, it costs £10 per month (or £15 per month for a joint account)."

Committed to the Priesthood of all Believers1 Peter 2:9
As we begin this morning, I want you to think about what you believe is the greatest threat to Christianity? We live in a nation that guarantees the freedom to worship however you want to worship, or not to worship at all. But just because we have freedom, doesn't mean that we have complete safety from all harm. So, what do you believe is the most significant threat that we here in Anniston, Alabama face in relation to our Christianity?
You are probably pretty normal, and when I asked you that question, your mind drifted to specific threats that exist outside of the church. Maybe the first thing you thought was the rise of atheism in America. We are told that atheism is the fastest growing movement in America.
Maybe you thought about how materialism has crept into our lives. Our culture that says life is all about physical things and physical experiences; he who has the most, the biggest pile of stuff, wins.
What about the growing issue of immorality that is being seen more and more in our communities where anything and everything seems to be okay. And you can barely go out in the street or look at your computer or read a magazine or listen to a song or watch television without having your morals assaulted.
While I believe that all of these issues are a threat to Christianity, I believe that the greatest threats to the church are not found outside of the church. The greatest dangers to your walk with God are much more subtle and much more personal than that. In fact, I would argue that the greatest danger to the modern church is actually found inside the members of the church.
Everyone of us here this morning, and those who are watching on the internet were created in the image of God and gifted to do great things for God. You were created with a desire to be deeply involved in His work. The problem is that all too often we try to fill our souls with the spiritual junk food the world has to offer. We try to accumulate just enough religion to feel safe, and at the end of the day we don't feel safe, or fulfilled. So we are at a catch 22, we have enough Jesus in us to feel like an outsider to the world, and enough of the world in us that we feel like an outsider or fake to the church.
The greatest threat to the church, is that we have forgotten who we are. Look again at what Peter writes in 1 Peter 2:9 But you are a chosen people, royal priests, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession. You were chosen to tell about the wonderful acts of God, who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
In our text this morning, Peter is reminding us that God designated you and I as priests. That is who you are, that is who you were called and created to be. Now, I am not sure what comes to mind when you hear the word priest, my dad's parents were Catholic, so I get a picture of a their priest; a somber man dressed in black. But, that's not the picture that the readers in the first century would have gotten. In the Old Testament, holding the office of a priest was a honor and a privilege.
The priest was a go-between or mediator between mankind and God. They led in worship and taught from the Scriptures; since everyone didn't have a pocket size bible to carry around with them the priest had the responsibility to tell the people God's will. They wore special robes that distinguished them from other worshippers and only they could handle the holy things of God like the incense, sacrifices, the furniture of the tabernacle or anything else that would be related to worship.
When Peter called the the first century readers to be a royal order of priests, he was inviting them to be involved in the holy things. Peter was telling them they were no longer separated from God. Now they were not only His children, but they were given the task and responsibility to be involved in His work. As a priest you have a right to come before God in prayer. You have the right to touch and partake of communion. You have the right to baptize others into Christ. You have the responsibility of knowing and teaching the Word of God. That's what Peter meant when he wrote that you and I are a royal and a holy priesthood. God made sure that you have everything you need to be deeply involved in the work of His kingdom.
I want us to camp out here for a bit, because some of us were unintentionally taught some things that have caused a little bit of misunderstanding about this idea of priesthood. There is an expectation that the preacher has become the modern day priest. While you might not call me the priest, there is this thought that only the preacher can baptize or take someones last confession before they die or pray over their children when they are born.
Don't misunderstand; my favorite part of preaching is that I get invited into your spiritual lives. I enjoy being able to walk with you through times of rejoicing and times of struggle. But I am not the only one allowed to do the holy things. Peter is saying that anyone who is a Christian is a priest, empowered by God to do all kinds of things, including baptizing folks, or praying for folks, and walking with folks on this wonderful adventure we call Christianity.
Over the last 20 years, I have noticed that in the churches where we have worshiped and worked that here is an undercurrent belief when you hire a preacher or youth minister, or children's minister, or toilet scrubbing minister that we pay them to do the holy things. I mean we have someone we pay to minister, so why should I be involved with the youth, visit the hospital, or the nursing home, or pray with people. Let me say right upfront that I'm guilty; the very first church where I preached expected me to and allowed me to do everything. I preached the sermons, taught the bible classes, led singing, did the opening and closing prayers, did the meditation at the Lord's Table, planned all the youth functions, and fixed anything that broke in the building. The members of that church were very gracious as they smiled at me and said that I did a better job. Please don't hear what I am saying as a complaint; to be honest I thought that was my job and I really enjoyed it. In fact a lot of ministers end up doing everything and for the most part they enjoy it as well. After all if you want something done right you have to do it yourself.
Looking at this 20 years later I see two main problems with this line of reasoning. The first problem is when we allow someone else to be the priest we miss life. In my grandmothers home, there was a room called the parlor. It had two uses: first when company came over to visit, if they were not good friends, they would sit in the parlor and chat. It was comfortable and adequate, but not the kitchen table. It was a place where you felt invited but not welcome. You were inside, maybe offered something to drink but you knew this was like the court of the gentiles at the temple. Their was something better just through that door.
The second use for the parlor was this was where they put the bodies when someone died. There was a time when someone died, they died in the home. The family was responsible to clean them up, and set them out for family and friends to come to the home and offer their respects. There was a time when we sat up all night with the dead. This was a time to mourn, reflect, and remember. Death was seen as a normal part of life, not something to be afraid of and to be honest we were better adjusted.
Today we pay professionals to take the bodies to a funeral parlor and the parlors in our homes have become the living rooms. Death has become, unpleasant and we pay someone to take care of it for us.
There used to be so many things that we did at home: births, deaths, making music, and telling stories and over time we have turned those things over to the professionals since they will do a better job anyway. In an effort to get better quality, or to get someone to do things we consider unpleasant he have hired a professional and in the process lost our connection and ability to experience real life. We also miss those real life chances to meet God. The things that were at one time natural have become a commercial enterprise.
The second problem I see from this type of Christianity is that when the staff becomes priests, they end up stealing from the church. Ministers often times rob the congregation of their ability to do ministry. We get so wrapped up doing the work for the church that we forget to do the ministry we were called to do.
Last week in our staff meeting we were looking at Ephesians chapter 4. In this letter to one of the early churches, the Apostle Paul writes a pretty good job description for those of us in professional ministry. We read in Ephesians 4:11-13 that a minister is to, Prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. If you have your Bible this morning circle or if you are using a tablet or phone then highlight the word mature. You ministers are supposed to prepare the members of the family to do works of service, so that we can be unified and mature. In our culture we tend to count maturity by how old someone is, or how long they have been a Christian. We probably need to redefine that a bit, part of growing up, part of becoming mature, is learning to take on responsibility. Every parent here knows children have an innate ability to scatter clutter throughout the house. There have been times when I have walked through our living room and found various balls, school books, tennis shoes, cups, and other things scattered all over the floor. If one of the boys are in the room, I usually ask them to pick all the stuff up. Their response is classic young adult speak: That's not mine. What they are saying, in essence, is it's not my job. But let's say tomorrow I'm at the building , the boys are at the school for Basketball, and Trista is home alone. Now lets say she walks into that same living room. On the floor she sees basketballs scattered among 15 pairs of shoes. DO you know what she does when she enters that room? She picks them up. She didn't put them there. It's not her stuff. It's not her fault that it's scattered all over the floor. But she picks it up anyway, because she's the adult. She's a grown up. That's what grown ups do.
A few weeks ago we talked about being committed to service. In that sermon I mentioned a few ways you can serve. The point of that sermon was not to give you busy work, I understand that you schedule is hectic enough already. But I wanted to make the point that we will only grow as a family, when every member is involved in the work. That's not my hair brained idea, that just a simple truth.
One of the more dynamic churches among our Restoration movement, is the Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, KY. It is the 7th largest church in the United States with a membership of over 32,000 people and they hold 8 worship services every weekend on 5 different campuses. Every week they have dozens of Bible studies, they average over 100 baptisms a year, and everyday they have people in their building doing some sort of ministry.
Jeff Strite went to visit the Southeast Congregation and he tells a story that I believe that it gives a little insight as to why it is such a dynamic congregation. He says if you want to know their secret you just have to visit go into their bathrooms. I know that sounds a bit weird, but he said while he was there he and his wife stopped to visit their facilities and what he saw amazed him. It was a big bathroom. And along one wall there was a long row of 10 sinks. At those sinks he saw 8 men washing their hands and checking their appearance in the mirror. But what caught his attention was that 6 of those men took paper towels and wiped up the water around the sink or cleaned the mirror. It made such an impression on him that when he got back with his wife, who was also coming out of the restroom he asked: "Did you notice anything unusual?" She said, that she had seen several women doing the exact same thing in their bathroom. That might not seem like a big thing to you, but it really was. Why do you think that men and women who had places to go, and people to meet would take their time to clean up a sink knowing that a cleaning service was going to come in during the week? Because there is a big difference between folks who are renting a space and folks who are taking ownership of a space. When we take ownership we are acting like adults, or priests. These folks knew that this was their church and as far as they were concerned, when something had to be done there, they saw it as their responsibility. As a church we'll only attain our full strength, we will only be a healthy congregation when we realize we are called to be priests of God. Maturity means that we realize that there is work to be done in the Kingdom, and it is my personal responsibility to be involved in that work. There are jobs that need to be tackled, visits to make, conversations to initiate, ministry that needs to be done, and we understand that we're the ones to do them. There is not a job to big, or to small, or to unpleasant that excuses us from the work.
The danger we face is if we don't, we will forget the purpose God has called us to. And instead of being mature workers in the Kingdom, we are stuck in immaturity. We forget how to do anything more than just exist, how to be served instead of taking up the towel and serving. But the biggest travesty is that we forfeit the abundant life that Jesus came to provide for us. In our text this morning Peter calls us back to our purpose, to proclaim the praises of the One who saved us from ourselves. We live in a world that doesn't know God. It is our responsibility to be involved in the work of the kingdom. I love how Peter ends this section of the text: Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us. (1 Peter 2:12)
Greenbrier does not occupy this space in this community so that people will say, "What a great church this is". We don't exist so that people can say, "What a great bunch of people go here." We exist so that people can look at us and say, "What a great an awesome God!" That can only happen when we are mature enough to be deeply involved in the work of His kingdom.
This morning I want to encourage you to take a step forward in your maturity. I want to challenge you to deepen your relationship with God so that He becomes very real in your life. Meeting with God on Sundays morning, is a great thing, but it has got to be more, it has got to be deeper than that. This morning I am calling you to deepen your level commitment and take on the mantle of service as we strive to be committed to the Priesthood of all believers.
Let's pray…

Fall means a number of wonderful things, like warm, comfy sweaters, foliage, and baking pumpkin pies. For drivers, fall also brings unique dangers to the roads. Find out what makes fall driving dangerous and what you can do to keep yourself safe.
Weather conditions can be unpredictable in the fall. A bright, beautiful afternoon can turn rainy and cold in minutes. And with days getting shorter, you could find yourself commuting to or from work in darkness.
Fall means back to school for kids, which means more cars and buses on the roads. Drivers also need to watch out for increased pedestrian traffic in the morning and afternoon as children walk to and from school and their neighborhood bus stops.
The first rain in a few weeks can be particularly dangerous, as water pools on top of dust and oil that haven't had a chance to wash away and makes the pavement extremely slippery.
Fall foliage is certainly beautiful, but as leaves begin to fall, they litter the roads, making streets slick while obscuring traffic lines and other pavement markings. They also hide potholes and other road hazards. And when it rains, it can make those wet leaves on the roadway as dangerous as ice.
And where there are turning leaves, there are leaf peepers. These leaf-peeping drivers tend to crawl along the roads and make unpredictable stops to admire the changing foliage. If you're driving behind a car with out-of-state plates, give them a little extra space just in case they stop short for a photo.
Cold fall mornings often lead to fog, which can greatly limit your driving visibility and perception of distance. Fog tends to occur in low places or areas surrounded by hills, water, mountains, and trees. One common mistake drivers make during foggy conditions is putting on their high beams instead of staying with their low beams. This only makes visibility worse because your high beams will bounce off the fog and create glare.
When driving through fog, slow down and stay well behind the car in front of you so you'll have adequate time to stop if you need to.
During the fall, temperatures tend to drop dramatically during the night, which can lead to morning frost and icy spots on the road. This is especially common on bridges, overpasses, and shaded areas of the road.
Fall is also a bad time for sun glare on the roads. Sun glare can impact your sight for seconds after exposure, making it hard to see pedestrians, oncoming traffic, or the car in front of you. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, drivers describe being "blinded" after exposure, and this sometimes leads to accidents or near misses.
Sun glare can also cause problems when the sun sets behind drivers. In this case, sunlight can bounce off your rearview mirror or reflect off traffic lights up ahead, and this can blind you for a split second while your eyes adjust. It can also make it hard (or impossible) to see traffic lights, which can prevent you from knowing if you're supposed to stop or go.
The fall season brings an increase in deer activity because it's their time for mating and migrating. If you live in a deer-heavy area, watch for darting deer, especially when driving at night.
Being prepared for fall's inclement weather and hazardous driving challenges is half the battle.
Knowing what to look for and using these tips can help you avoid weather-related car accidents in the fall. For more seasonal driving tips, visit the pages below.

Shoes are what makes or breaks the overall look and feel of an outfit. As much as every woman would love own a thousand pairs of shoes, most of us will probably have to make do with about ten. The following are some classic women's shoe styles to go for:
1. Peep-toe pumps: These are perfect for a romantic date and even for work. We recommend peep-toes in a nude shade. They make your legs look longer and go with almost every item of clothing you own.
2. Black boots: Over the knee, knee-length, calf-length, or ankle-length, black boots are a wardrobe must-have. They make you look fierce and sexy. An almond-toe pair in leather or suede will see you through work and evenings.
3. Ballet flats: Versatile enough to cater for both professional and casual wear, plus comfortable, ballerina flats give you an instant girl-next-door vibe. Opt for colourful ballet flats to add a pop of colour to a monochrome outfit.
4. Wooden platform sandals: For an instantly bold look, go for strappy sandals with a high wooden platform and buckle closure. Besides adding inches to your frame, wooden platform sandals add a sexy-vibe-look to an outfit.
5. Canvas sneakers: Your perfect companion for running errands and for travelling, canvas shoes are the ultimate in durability and comfort. We recommend a cute pair in a neutral colour that you can play up with colourful laces.
6. Black pumps: The ultimate must-have for every girl's wardrobe, black pumps are chic and graceful. Black pumps in any heel length are classy and can literally be worn with everything. For comfort, get a pair with cushioned insoles and almond toes.
7. Metallic sandals: Metallic high heel sandals are the perfect accessory for a fun night out with friends or a special someone. Go for a sling-back in metallic gold, silver, coral, or blue with bow or ruched accents.
8. Suede booties: The perfect accessory for the jeans, pullover and scarf look, suede booties are gorgeous and functional. Opt for a pair with split collars or zipper accents. Booties with medium heels look the best.
9. Flat leather sandals: Black, brown, or tan, flat leather sandals are charming and flirty. Make sure the shoes have a back zip, a padded insole, and nifty gold-tone accents.
10. Designer shoes: Whether they are delicious boots or sky-high heels, every girl deserves a pair of designer shoes. Our top picks are Jimmy Choo, Christian Louboutin, Stuart Weitzman, and Manolo Blahnik for their outstanding craftsmanship.
Invest in good quality shoes that'll last you for years. Make sure to take good care of them, and they will return the favour by making you look like a million bucks.

We're stepping into that time of year where our mailboxes fill up with holiday wishes from friends and family! While I love accumulating these cards, the pile grows very quickly and I have a hard time throwing them away at the end of the year. This goes for any time of the year for that matter! Some cards are just too pretty to throw away and although we might be a little biased, we especially feel that way about Lily & Val cards!
For that reason, we came up with a few fun ways to keep your cards, but also transform them into something functional. These little DIY card pockets are simple, easy and really cute!
Simple magnetic card pocket
Use craft paper glue to seal the edges of the card so that it forms a pocket. While it dries, glue heavy duty magnets to the back of the card and let set. Once everything is dry, just find a place to hang it! If you're one for decorating your refrigerator, we think this is perfect! Leave it next to your grocery list with your favorite pen right where you can see it!
A washi tape pocket is ridiculously simple – just create a pocket with a pen or your finger and tape the edges down with washi tape of your choosing! I've tape this pocket next to my desk and it adds style and purpose to my wall!
To create the stitched pocket, glue the card edges again and let dry. Then, use a heavy duty hand sewing needle to hand stitch the sides closed. I left the strings long and tied them so I could hang it! The colorful string really pops against the black and white card!
Because I love the stitched card look so much, I created another version to hang on our guest room door! The flowers tucked inside make it bright and welcoming!
The push-pin pocket
If you've got some spare room on your corkboard, add a card and pin down the edges with push-pins for instant storage! Keepsakes, markers, notes are easy to reach and also look really nice in this DIY pocket!
Now your keepsake cards can be enjoyed with a new life. If a card is too pretty or too special to throw away, we think these card pockets are the perfect way to recycle them!
Tell us what you think...
I remember making similar pockets as a kid, but with paper plates instead. I can't wait to try your grown-up version and give new life to special cards and prints I've received through the years. Thanks. 🙂
These are great ideas! I save all my cards and they usually get stored in a decorative box. Some are so pretty and now I can display their artwork! Thanks for the tips!!

Adai is the south Indian version of cheela and is full of proteins and health! A mixture of lentils and rice ensure this is one super balanced and healthy dish to have!
I am on a roll today! After the Onion Vetha Kuzhambu recipe, here is another Tam dish – Adai. I have always relished adai whenever I have eaten it. In fact, I love all kind of cheelas and dosas and have many featured on my blog already. This one is so healthy and loaded with protein, I have always wanted to make it. So when the other day I was having a chat with Nandita of Saffron trail on Twitter, she led me to a recipe on her blog to make the same. With a brief guideline on how to make it, I created a mix of my own dals and created my own Adai. It was delicious, crisp and everyone at home loved it.
Adai is a unique dish. It is the perfect balance between carbs and proteins. The recipe of adai differs from house to house, actually. A bit of that dal extra or this dal less, and the entire taste changes. Some people add pepper to the adai batter, some people add fenugreek, some people add ginger to it. Every adai has a unique taste and texture to it! Some people make the batter really thick, and then pat it with their hands to shape it on the tawa and add loads of oil to it, and shallow fry it. Some make it really thin and crisp. Did you know people eat adai with jaggery and some folks love eating it with white butter?
Eat it with anything really, it is one dish which is a perfect option for breakfast, lunch or dinner! I can eat it any time of the day. All it needs is a bit of soaking time for the dals and rice and you have the perfect meal option with you 🙂
- 1/2 cup moong dal of green
- 1/2 cup masoor dal
- 1/2 cup urad dal spilt black (with chilka)
- 1/2 cup channa dal
- 1/2 cup toor dal
- 1/2 cup rice
- 3 green chillies more depending on how spicy you want your adai to be
- 2 dry red chillies
- 5 curry leaves approximately
- to taste salt
Apart from this you will need
- Wash and soak all the dals in sufficient water overnight, then next morning wash the dals again to drain all the grime.
- Add rest of the ingredients, apart from oil and grind to a coarse mixture, don;t over grind it, This is just my humble opinion that it tastes much better if the batter is not over ground.
- Heat a non-stick pan, take a ladle full of batter and spread it circularly to make a dosa. Spread 1 tsp of oil all around the adai. Cook it till browned flip and cook the other side.
- Serve hot with any chutney u prefer, we had ours with a thin tomato chutney and mint-coriander chutney.
- Yummy and healthy isnt it?
And I am sending this to event which I always loved reading... My Legume Love Affair hosted this time at Mharo Rajasthan
If you make this, share a picture with me on twitter, instagram or Facebook? I would love to hear what you have to say about it
