Fruits, vegetables offer little protection against cancer
Paolo Boffetta, lead author of the study and Deputy Director of The Tisch Cancer Institute at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, and colleagues analyzed data from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study to assess relationships between cancer risk and intake of total fruits, total vegetables, and total fruits and vegetables combined. In this population, an increase of 200 grams a day of fruits and vegetables resulted in a reduction of about 3 percent of cancer risk.
Vegetable use by itself also afforded a modest benefit but was limited to women. Heavy drinkers who ate many fruits and vegetables had a somewhat reduced risk, but only for cancers caused by smoking and alcohol. However, eating fruits and vegetables is beneficial for health in general and the results of this study do not justify changing current recommendations aiming at increasing intake of these foods," said Boffetta.

Helping line for students, Dial 103.
Bajanjit Kaur (18), a medical college student, allegedly committed suicide at her Powai residence on January 4. Kaur had failed in three subjects. A day later, Class 7 student, Sushant Patil, was found hanging in the toilet at his school in Dadar. He had failed in four papers. Lokbharti Party's member of Legislative Council, Kapil Patil, raised the issue in the Council on Monday, saying suicides were a "social problem". "We need to constitute a committee of experts, change our style of taking examinations, include a grading system, make counselling available in schools, and even set up a state plan to look at this problem," said Kapil Patil.
That is really a very serious matter. Younger is the future of our nation if we lost them than what will be our nation’s future? Just switched off the all stress and keep hard work we definitely get the good result. Suicide is not a last solution of the stress.
"The committee will also include representatives from the Home, Health and Education departments along with teachers and parents," Khan said. The state has also approached the Tata Institute of Social Sciences to train teachers to counsel students. "It will cost the state about Rs 75 lakh, which we are in the process of considering," Khan said.
Khan said this would make things easier for students who do not want to pursue Math-related courses after Class 10.

Wizarding world of Harry potter park in Florida
We are eagerly waiting for wizarding world park of harry potter. I love the magic show and there are huge details of the rides based on rowling’s fantasy novel about the boy wizard. In the books and movies, the founders of the Hogwarts houses of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin are referenced but are long deceased. At the park, the characters will come to life.
It such a incredible world of Harry Potter so that is a really big point for the fans. They used very advanced robotic technology but it’s going to feel like nothing you have ever felt before.
Rowling was consulted throughout the development of the 20-acre (8-hectare) park and signed off on the details, the designers told. The company has begun selling wizarding world of Harry potter four night vacation package which includes an on-site hotel room, park tickets and various amenities.
