Coffee...taste of Life

Coffee..coffee..My day starts with a sip of coffee...and I think most of the people also do the same thing.When I was young my mom used to scream at me saying not to drink coffee as it is not good for health. My sister also used to say coffee is not good for health so don't drink it but now she is addicted to coffee. I feel like I am in heaven when I drink coffee. Everyone says that if we drink coffee, we wont get sleep...I drink coffee in the night around 11 thinking that I can study all the night but I sleep with in an hour after I drink it. This sounds something different for you all. Now a days I drink coffee for three or four times in a day to withstand the stress from work. If I was at home my Mom would have controlled me from drinking coffee too many times but no one is here to control me..I miss you mom.

Any ways now I am thinking to reduce the amount of coffee I take everyday. I advice all of you not to drink more than 2-3 cups of coffee per day. 2-3 cups of coffee is not harmful to health and has some health benefits. Various studies has shown that 2-3 cups of coffee(5-10g of coffee powder) lowers the chance of developing Alzheimeir's disease, Diabetes, Parkinsons disease. Also there are some negative effects of drinking more coffee...it may lead to iron deficiency anemia, heartburn and some life threatening side effects. Actually these health effects are all due to presence of caffeine in coffee. This caffeine has some stimulatory effect on humans. It is generally degraded by the enzymatic system of liver. So in a healthy liver most of the caffeine is degraded by the liver and some undegraded caffeine is excreted through urine. Elderly people who do not have a proper enzymatic system cannot tolerate more amount of coffee as it is not degraded. many doctors advice the people to take decaffeinated coffee.

So guys drink coffee but get hold of how much amount of coffee you drink everyday.

My presentation on Sex Selection

45 days back I gave a presentation on Sex selection in Developmental Biology class and students raised a lot of questions on why sex selection is widely followed in India.

Basically Sex selection is that parents select the sex of their offspring(child) before the mother gives birth to the child. I am writing this topic because many are unaware of what actually going on in the society and why the gilrs ratio is declining...I have been hearing from past 2 years saying that guys are not able to find girls to get married. The ratio of this is all because of the sex selection being practiced from many years. Even though the court had passed rules and restriction to this still in many countries its being followed( Especially in India, Pakistan, Australia). The society in India is the worst one that even the educated parents still practice this. They want there off spring to be male thinking that boys can carry there family name to next generation. I still cannot understand why many couple think in this way. Guys change your way of thinking and if this sex selection is practiced in this way there will be no girls on this earth...

This is one side of sex selection and now i am going to tell the other side of the sex selection. Sex selection is also practiced to prevent sex-linked disorders. There are a lot of genetic diseases like sickle cell anemia, hemophilia A etc which effect the embryo and the child may be born with defects. The couple can go for the medical methods(Sperm sorting, Amniocentessis, Ultrasonography) available and can go for dignosis where u can identify the defects of the embryo. This helps the parents to have a healthy child. This is the condition where sex selection is very useful. Always there will be both pros and cons for any application of science. But it depends on the way mankind uses it. So my sincere advice to everyone is use the sex selection for medical reasons.

Ap elections-09

I was stunned with the results of Ap elections-09. I never thought that congress will win again. I sat till 3 am in the morning watching the news. But when I understood that congress is going to win I closed the laptop. But I was happy for one thing that JP won the elections. I wish him all the best in the assembly. I know he is going to show kukatpally as one of the best constituency. I think atleast in the next elections people will change there mind voting for loksatha and I dont know in this 5yrs how much more corruption is going to rule the AP government.

I opened the blog long back but I was so busy with my work that I did not post anything in it and now I decided to spend sometime on my blog. I entered Us on jan 1st and horrible winter is running in US....It took a couple of days to adjust to this climate. I was with my sister for first two weeks going all around lexington and atlanta. But whats there in US? I dont know why people are crazy about it. I finally finished my semester and when I think back of what I had done in the last 4 months...nothing except studying and working...there is no single day without any work and without any tension to my brain. And now I feel like completely free and I dont want to be free now. I was so stressed up all these months and now my brain says not to sit ideal. One thing I learned after coming here is I understood why US is more ahead of India...because they work all the 5 days without taking rest and concentrate on what they work but in India we dont work seriously and never dedicate our life towards work like these peolpe. However I feel life is better in India..here its completely mechanical.. and I dont want this life
