Liječnica: Ovo su najčešći pokazatelji da se ne krećete dovoljno u danu

BILO da radite od kuće ili u uredu, ako cijeli dan sjedite zbog posla, vaše tijelo možda propušta ključne pokrete i koristi koje oni donose. Ako je to slučaj, postoji šansa da vam tijelo određenim pokazateljima želi skrenuti pozornost na to da mu je potrebno više kretanja.

Liječnica fizikalne terapije, Lisa N. Folden, izdvojila je najčešće znakove koji ukazuju na to da se u danu ne krećemo dovoljno.

Zatvor

“Kada patite od zatvora, to je jasan pokazatelj da ili ne unosite dovoljno vlakana i vode ili se ne krećete dovoljno. Ležanje ili sjedenje većinu dana ‘odličan’ je način da zaustavite rad crijeva”, kaže Folden.

Da biste izbjegli zatvor crijeva, trebali biste se redovito kretati. Prošetajte tijekom pauze za ručak ili se potrudite ustati i protegnuti nekoliko puta tijekom dana. Vaše tijelo i crijeva bit će vam zahvalni, prenosi Eating Well. 

Napetost mišića

Liječnica objašnjava da su “mišići poput gumenih traka. Što ih više rastežete i krećete, to su fleksibilniji. Kada prestanete s kretanjem, oni se ukoče ili zategnu. U osnovi, postaju kraći. Kada se to dogodi, možete smatrati da su svakodnevni pokreti neugodniji i izazovniji.”

Ako vam je neugodno obavljati svakodnevne pokrete, poput podizanja predmeta s poda, vrijeme je da dodate istezanje u svoju rutinu. Folden preporučuje da tri puta tjedno odvojite nekoliko minuta za istezanje.

Ukočeni zglobovi

Zglobovi sadrže lubrikant nazvan sinovijalna tekućina. “Ta tekućina pomaže zglobovima da se glatko kreću bez boli. Kada se nađete nepokretni i ne vježbate često, proizvodnja te tekućine počinje usporavati i vaši zglobovi to osjete”, ističe ona. Dodavanje malo hodanja u vašu rutinu i ostajanje dobro hidrirani pomoći će ponovnom protoku sinovijalne tekućine.

Brzo se umarate

Ako primijetite da se brzo umorite dok se penjete stepenicama ili hodate po trgovini, to je znak da bi vam koristilo više kardioaktivnosti u vašem svakodnevnom životu, prenosi Eating Well. 

“To se događa jer vaša pluća i srce više nisu naviknuti na rad iznad sjedilačkog nivoa. Ako puno sjedite tijekom dana, preporučuje se da u slobodno vrijeme trčite ili hodate uzbrdo. Održavanje tijela aktivnim i u kondiciji najbolji je lijek za umorno srce i pluća”, objašnjava.

Tužni ste ili loše raspoloženi

Nedostatak tjelesne aktivnosti mogao bi biti jedan od razloga zašto osjećate pogoršanje raspoloženja. “Redovita tjelesna aktivnost uzrokuje da vaše tijelo proizvodi više ‘hormona sreće’, poznatih i kao endorfini”, tvrdi liječnica.

Osim mnogih drugih učinaka, endorfini izazivaju vrlo pozitivan osjećaj u tijelu koji vas općenito čini sretnijima i opuštenijima. Zato je važno što se više kretati kako bismo bili dobro raspoloženi.

Diane Westhoven, Meet the Real Miss Alabama 2024 Winner: Everything You Need To Know About Sara Milliken Controversy and Backlash

Ever since the supposed crowning of Sara Milliken, a plus-size model, as Miss Alabama 2024 – the internet has never been the same. Crazy controversy has erupted on social media, and outrage quickly spread among users, with many criticizing the decision, claiming it promoted “unhealthy lifestyles.” Some even compared her victory to awarding a prize to a “chain smoker” and drew parallels to the recent crowning of a trans woman as Miss Maryland USA, labelling both titles as “fake awards.” However, the real Miss Alabama 2024 is Diane Westhoven. Yes, the confusion has been cleared now:

Meet real Miss Alabama 2024 – Diane Westhoven

Diane Westhoven, Miss Alabama USA 2024, is a 21-year-old from Birmingham, Alabama, and a senior at Auburn University, majoring in Psychology. Driven by a passion for health and wellness, Diane aspires to become a physician assistant, aiming to help others feel confident both physically and emotionally. Her ultimate goal is to serve as a counsellor for young women, making a positive impact on their overall health.

Miss Alabama USA 2024 Diane Westhoven

Sara Milliken – Backlash and Online Harassment

The backlash reached new heights following Milliken’s interview with WKRG, a TV station in Mobile, Alabama. Online attacks targeted the station, the reporter, and Milliken herself, with Facebook becoming a hotbed for vicious comments.

Sara Milliken’s Stand

Amid the uproar, Sara Milliken took to her official Facebook page to defend herself. In a heartfelt post, she wrote: “The things that have been said about me are truly disgusting, and I cannot fathom how people think it’s okay to say these things. I could give up, hide my face, and stop posting on social media. But instead, I say, WATCH ME. Watch me serve my community, give my all into preparing for nationals, and show every single hater why a plus-size woman can and should be a titleholder.”

Understanding Pageant Standards

The controversy has highlighted a significant misunderstanding about different beauty pageants and their criteria. Miss USA, for example, emphasizes swimsuit and sportswear contests, focusing on physical silhouettes. In contrast, Miss America, which does not include a swimsuit segment, focuses on talent shows and physical fitness presentations.

Her determination and defiant response to the criticism has already made an impact, challenging stereotypes and promoting greater acceptance of diverse body types in the beauty world.

Narednih dana s neba će padati “kolačići”, nemojte ih dirati. Evo čemu služe

U TIJEKU je cijepljenje lisica protiv bjesnoće, koje se obavlja iz zraka. Zbog toga deseci zrakoplova s mamcima za lisice, u kojima je cjepivo, lete iznad zemlje, javlja Danas.hr. Kolačići s cjepivom bacaju se po cijeloj zemlji, osim po jadranskim otocima.

“Mamci za oralnu vakcinaciju lisica sadrže oslabljeni soj virusa bjesnoće, ali također sadrže i antibiotik koji se doživotno odlaže u kostima i zubima lisica. On služi kao biljeg kako bismo znali je li lisica pojela mamac”, objasnila je Ivana Lojkić, voditeljica Nacionalnog referentnog laboratorija za bjesnoću pri Veterinarskom institutu.

Iako nije opasan za ljude, mamac za lisice ne smije se dirati. U sljedećih osam dana na tlo cijele zemlje past će ih milijun.

Evo koliko koštaju hrana i piće u Aldiju u Njemačkoj, a koliko kod nas

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

INDEXOVI novinari otputovali su u Njemačku kako bi iz prve ruke pratili događanja vezana uz Europsko prvenstvo u nogometu. Dok su tamo, iskoristili su priliku da posjete popularnu njemačku trgovinu Aldi i usporede cijene pojedinih proizvoda s onima u Hrvatskoj.

S obzirom na to da u Hrvatskoj nema Aldi trgovina, za usporedbu cijena istražili smo više trgovina u našoj zemlji i u svakoj tražili slične artikle, slične gramaže ili mililitraže. Ako nismo našli odgovarajuću gramažu, usporedili smo onu približno istu ili dostupnu, što je istaknuto u tablici.

Također, u Hrvatskoj su za neke od navedenih artikala na snazi ograničene cijene, što smo označili zvjezdicom. Na kraju smo istaknuli i kretanje cijena u Hrvatskoj pregledavajući nekoliko trgovačkih lanaca.

Za usporedbu smo odabrali nekoliko proizvoda koji se nalaze u gotovo svakom kućanstvu i usporedili njihove redovne cijene u Aldiju s redovnim cijenama istih ili sličnih artikala u nekoliko vodećih trgovačkih lanaca u Hrvatskoj. Ispod možete vidjeti tablicu.

Osnovne namirnice i meso povoljniji u Njemačkoj

Osnovne namirnice, poput jaja, svježeg mlijeka i brašna, povoljnije su u njemačkom Aldiju nego u većini naših trgovačkih lanaca. Nadalje, meso koje smo uspoređivali također je povoljnije u tom njemačkom trgovačkom lancu nego u bilo kojoj trgovini kod nas u kojoj smo gledali ponudu istih artikala.

U Hrvatskoj je uglavnom povoljnije povrće

Što se tiče namirnica poput riže i tjestenine, i one su povoljnije u Aldiju nego kod nas, osim špageta koje su kod nas nešto jeftinije, vjerojatno zbog ograničenja cijena. 

Kad govorimo o hrani, u Hrvatskoj su uglavnom povoljnije cijene povrća, tako da su kod nas tikvice, češnjak, luk, krumpir, cvjetača i brokula jeftiniji. No miks paprika povoljniji je u Aldiju.

Što se tiče slatkiša i grickalica, one koje smo gledali u Aldiju povoljnije su nego kod nas. Tako je čips Pringles čak i za euro jeftiniji nego u većini naših trgovina, a samo u jednoj smo ga našli za 2.99 eura, što je i dalje skuplje nego u Aldiju.

Popularni Nutella keksi skuplji su i za euro, a Nutella u staklenci od 500 grama tamo stoji 3.49 eura. Kod nas takvog pakiranja Nutelle nema pa smo gledali onu u staklenci od 400 grama, a najpovoljnija koju smo našli košta 4 eura. Cijene pića poput Coca-Cole i kave slične su i u Aldiju i kod nas.

Tekući deterdžent Ariel u Hrvatskoj i pet eura skuplji

Još jedna stavka koja se kod nas može pronaći povoljnije je toaletni papir, ali valja napomenuti da su i njegove cijene u Hrvatskoj ograničene. No tekući deterdžent Ariel kod nas je pet eura skuplji, dok je Schauma šampon skuplji za čak 1.70 eura. Kod nas je skuplja i hrana za mačke, i to ravno dva eura.

Samo ćemo na kraju zaključiti ovim podatkom – u Hrvatskoj je prosječna zarada po satu u 2023. bila 14 eura, a u Njemačkoj 41 euro (izvor Eurostat).

Gospel Group Staples Jr. Singers Release First New Music in Nearly 50 Years

Greg Belson, whose gospel collection fills three rooms in Los Angeles, was intrigued that the band’s name was so similar to The Staple Singers. He put “We Got a Race to Run” on a portable turntable he often brings with him, and was struck by their sound: “It sat completely in the wheelhouse of what I look for, which is specifically gospel with a soulful tinge, rather than what I would say more classical church-based gospel,” Belson said.

Yale Evelev, the president of Luaka Bop, heard Belson’s radio show and pulled from his collection for a compilation of 1970s gospel soul songs called “The Time For Peace Is Now.” He wanted to include the Staples Jr. Singers single, but first he had to find the band. He figured out that Annie Brown was now Annie Caldwell, and called all seven listed in Mississippi.

Like Belson, Evelev was attracted to a gospel sound that isn’t heard much on the radio these days. “These are soul records really,” he said. “Soul records with a message. That message imbues the performance with a certain underlying intensity and honesty.”

He reached Brown Caldwell on the last call.

“I never believed that this record would come up again,” Brown Caldwell said. “For real though. Is this for real?”

She agreed to put the single out but her brothers were initially resistant, and they balked at reissuing “When Do We Get Paid.” Only a few hundred original copies of the record exist, one of which Belson bought off a Milwaukee collector for $600.

“There was a lot of family drama that was happening that had existed for a long time,” Evelev said. “We kind of ended up in the middle of it, and it was a lot of back and forth and a lot of yelling at each other.”

They worked it out, and agreed to perform four shows in New York in 2022. Evelev heard some songs that weren’t on their 1975 record and asked if they had any unreleased music. It turned out they recorded about a dozen songs in Muscle Shoals in the 1980s.

Evelev brought in Ahmed Gallab, who performs as the artist Sinkane, as a producer, and he recorded them over two nights in a Mississippi church where they sat in a semi-circle or in the pews as they played. Gallab then went to Nashville to mix it and do some overdubs, aiming to have the songs “ring as true as possible” to when he first heard them play.

Like their first album, “Searching” weaves its gospel message with blues guitar and influences ranging from boogaloo to swamp music to rhythm and blues to soul.

A world-weariness comes through in songs like the lead track, “Living In This World Alone,” with Brown Caldwell lamenting how she misses her mother and tries to “live free from sin” without her.

“I can listen to their voices and hear the stories that they’re talking about and really understand them,” Gallab said. “That’s the one thing that’s really sets them apart, especially when Annie sings. She’s just telling you a story.”

The band members — now four generations of the Brown family — shrug off their newfound celebrity. On the latest record, R.C. plays guitar and the two other siblings sing. Edward’s son sings backing vocals, R.C.’s son plays bass and R.C.’s grandson plays drums.

They still live in Aberdeen, a town of 5,000 along the Tombigbee River where they grew up and where Edward and R.C. retired from factory jobs. All three insist their mission remains the same as it was all those years ago — to spread the word of God and inspire listeners to follow his path.

Edward Brown said he rarely hears anything good on the radio anymore and worries about younger generations turning to gun violence. So he is doing his part by singing and trying to “touch people” with his life story.

“You have to do what God said do,” he said. “When I hit the stage, I tell the Lord, ‘take self out, You take over.’ I just give it all to him and do what he wants me to do.”

Stock market update: M&M, Shriram Finance, Adani Ports among top gainers

BSE Sensex closed at 76,992.77, up by 181.87 pts or 0.24 per cent, and Nifty 50 ended at 23,465.60, up by 66.70 pts or 0.29 per cent.

Sectoral indices, except IT and media, closed in the positive territory. Nifty auto, healthcare and consumer durables were up over 1 per cent.

Nifty mid-cap 100 rose 1.05 per cent to 55,225.95, and Nifty small-cap was up 0.76 per cent at 18,043.60.

Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services, stated that there is a temporary blip in the market momentum, due to a lack of fresh triggers after the hawkish commentary from the US Fed, lowering the plausibility of rate cut in the short-term.

“A near-term consolidation seems probable as domestic investors await cues from the upcoming union budget. There is a growing opinion that the government could place emphasis on welfare, giving a fillip to consumption-led stocks,” he said.

Eicher Motors, Adani Ports, Mahindra & Mahindra,Shriram Finance, and Ttitan were the top gainers on the Nifty 50 pack, while Tech Mahindra, TCS , Wipro, HCL Technologies, and L&T were top losers.

Ambuja Cements, among stocks that hit a new high on Friday, closed at ₹673.60 on the NSE, higher by 1.68 per cent.

The other major stocks that hit a 52-week high on the NSE include Mazagon (14.02%), Siemens (5.26%), VBL (3.98%), and JSW Infra (3.49%).

A total of 3,980 stocks were traded on the BSE of which 2,244 advanced, 1,621 declined and 115 remained unchanged. The number of stocks that hit a 52-week high was 319 and at a 52-week low was 12.

Trenerica otkrila koje tri namirnice sabotiraju gubitak kilograma

GOTOVE smoothieje i smrznutu hranu trebali biste izbjegavati ako pokušavate skinuti kilograme, tvrdi trenerica Jenna Rizzo.

“Vidim da se ova hrana prekomjerno jede, a ne umjereno, što stvarno može otežati mršavljenje”, rekla je u videu koji je objavila na TikToku.

American Heart Association preporučuje konzumaciju četiri i pol šalice voća dnevno, ali Rizzo kaže da smoothiji iz trgovine i acai zdjelice nisu pravi izbor.

“To je hrana krcata šećerom, često se priprema od voća i povrća u prahu, tako da ni ne jedete pravu hranu. Napravite ova jela sami kod kuće”, poručila je.

Druga stvar koju je izdvojila, jest smrznuta hrana.

“Ta je hrana jako kalorična. Itekako otežava kontrolu porcija i obično ne sadrži najbolje sastojke”, dodala je.

Istraživanja su povezala ultraprerađenu hranu, poput smrznutih večera, s većim rizikom od prerane smrti, srčanih bolesti, raka debelog crijeva, pretilosti, depresije i drugih ozbiljnih stanja.

Na kraju, konzumacija koktela također može otežati mršavljenje jer je riječ o visokokaloričnim pićima koja ometaju sagorijevanje masti.

“U koktele se dodaju sokovi i sirupi s hrpom kalorija. Dakle, možete lako popiti stotine, pa čak i tisuće kalorija u jednoj noći”, zaključila je.

Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s 2nd Pre-wedding Album Is Out! Couture Fashion Amid the Mediterranean Beauty, It’s Impossible to Look Away From the Couple’s Royal Glamour (See Pictures)

Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding isn’t until July, but that does not stop the much-in-love couple from celebrating their unison with some pre-wedding galore. Just making it bigger and grander! Following the hastakshar ceremony in March, held at Ambanis’ hometown in Jamnagar, Gujarat, the pre-wedding festivities continued with a four-day cruise that made several stops throughout the Mediterranean. While sneak-peaks of who wore what have been doing rounds on the internet, the pictures from their second pre-wedding album are officially out and it’s impossible to look away. Couture fashion amid the Mediterranean beauty, Anant and Radhika are a royalty treat to the sore eyes.

The second grand pre-wedding festivity of Anant and Radhika was equally a head-turner. One can see the proud parents, Nita Ambani and Mukesh Ambani, pulling all the strings to make it an eventful and memorable affair. They hosted their guests for a cruise party across Europe, which included performances by Katy Perry, Backstreet Boys, Andrea Bocelli, and David Guetta. Of course, the guest list would be incomplete without Bollywood’s A-listers. Shah Rukh Khan, Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor, Janhvi Kapoor, Ananya Panday, Sara Ali Khan, Ranveer Singh, and more, the pre-wedding party was nothing short of a red-carpet gathering.

Above all, Anant and Radhika’s looks at the events stood out. The pre-wedding glow is unmissable, and Radhika was all for couture pieces, leaving everyone mesmerised by her ‘It’ girl fashion influence.

First Formal Cruise Party

Radhika played muse to fashion designer Robert Wun. What made it even more special was a love letter that Anant wrote for her, reportedly when she was 22, printed on the chiffon gown. Her gown was inspired by the designer’s 2024 spring collection. Meanwhile, the groom-to-be suited up in black.

Toga Party

Radhika wore a custom ‘toga’ designed by New York-based designer Grace Ling. The outfit featured a futuristic 3D-carved, sculpted aluminium breastplate paired with a white skirt.

Masquerade Ball

For the third day, the bride wore a custom Versace dress in shades of blue and silver. What caught everyone’s attention was the giant necklace around her neck—a rare blue opal surrounded by diamonds by Lorraine Schwartz. It was unique as it had both Radhika and Anant’s birthstones. Anant joined the bride in a custom Dolce & Gabbana.

Majestic Look

The final look was this majestic, goddess-like ivory gown. Haute couture at its best, Radhika chose Tamara Ralph for this dreamy gown that transformed her into a goddess. The satin number featured an overskirt adorned with white silk and encrusted crystal roses. The off-shoulder neckline, crystal rose headband, and dramatic floor-sweeping train gave her a standout appearance.

Goddess-Like Appearance 

Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s pre-wedding festivities leave a long-lasting impact. Each outfit was thoughtfully curated for the couple, giving a lifelong memory. They will marry in a three-day-long celebration from July 12 to July 14, 2024.

Čudo u Tajlandu: Slonica okotila blizance

AZIJSKA slonica u središnjem Tajlandu okotila je blizance, što je osoblje opisalo kao čudo, prenosi u petak BBC. Nitko nije očekivao da će majka, 36-godišnja Chamchuri, okotiti blizance, a kad je prošlog petka najprije okotila muškog mladunca, osoblje na farmi za uzgoj slonova Ayutthaya Elephant Palace i Royal Kraal smatralo je porod završenim.

Dok su čistili prvo mladunče i pomagali mu da stane na noge, čuli su glasan udarac i vidjeli da je Chamchuri okotila drugo mladunče, ovaj put ženku. Nakon drugog poroda, osoblje je moralo obuzdati majku kako ne bi nagazila na žensko mladunče nakon što ju je uhvatila panika, pri čemu je ozlijeđen jedan njegovatelj.

Blizanci se pojavljuju samo u jedan posto rođenja slonova, a muško-ženski par blizanaca još je rjeđa pojava, kažu iz Save the Elephants, istraživačke organizacije.

“Uvijek smo željeli vidjeti slonove blizance, ali to ne može svatko vidjeti jer se ne događa često”, rekla je za BBC veterinarka Lardthongtare Meepan, koja je odrasla na ovoj farmi slonova i sama je majka blizanaca.

Charin Somwang, 31-godišnji timaritelj slonova, tzv. mahout, slomio je nogu dok je obuzdavao slonicu.

“Bio sam tako sretan da nisam ni osjetio bol”, rekao je za BBC, dodajući da je razmjere ozljeda osjetio tek kada su ga dovezli u bolnicu.

Slonovi se smatraju svetima u Tajlandu gdje su većina stanovništva budisti. Oni su i nacionalni simbol. Posjetiteljima parka, uključujući i djecu, dopušteno je vidjeti blizance, ali tek nakon dezinfekcije obuće i ruku.

Mladunčad će imena dobiti sedam dana nakon rođenja, u skladu s tajlandskim običajima. S 55 kg, žensko mladunče slona je nešto manje nego što je uobičajeno i mora stajati na stolcu tijekom hranjenja s majkom. Njen brat je, s 60 kg, teži.

Šokiralo je kakvu je vrećicu dobila u Gucciju: “Žele li oni da te opljačkaju?”

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste.

TIKTOKERICA Allison Kuch je u nekoliko dana postala viralna zbog svoje objave na TikToku, a razlog je ogromna papirnata Gucci vrećica. No ono što je zapravo zanimljivo u cijeloj priči jest to da se u vrećici ne krije nikakav veliki šoping. Naprotiv, u promotivnoj vrećici ove luksuzne trgovine nalazi se torba srednje veličine.

Koliko je točno velika vrećica koju je dobila, možete vidjeti u videu ispod, koji je prikupio 11.5 milijuna pregleda u samo tri dana. “Tako mi je neugodno”, istaknula je u videu. 

“Gucci želi da te opljačkaju”

U naknadnom videu pokazala je i sadržaj koji se krio u njoj. Riječ je o srednje velikoj jutenoj Gucci torbi.

“Ali zašto je vrećica tako velika”, “Ta torbica je bila u toj vrećici? Prokleto dobro znam da su je mogli staviti u manju”, “Ponestalo im je manjih vrećica za kupovinu?”, “Ta vrećica ne kaže Gucci, kaže opljačkaj me”, “Postala si hodajući jumbo plakat”, “Sigurno su prije radili za Amazon. Ne znaju pravilno zapakirati stvari”, “Gucci želi da te opljačkaju”, “Tako Amazon šalje pakete kada naručite nešto sitno”, “To je prokleti jumbo plakat”, “Žele li oni da te opljačkaju?”, neki su od komentara.

Emily Blunt in talks for Steven Spielberg’s next movie

LOS ANGELES: Hollywood star Emily Blunt in talks for veteran filmmaker Steven Spielberg’s next feature directorial project.

Hollywood studio Universal and Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment will be releasing the movie worldwide on May 15, 2026, according to entertainment news outlet Deadline.

Though the details of the plot have been kept under wraps, the untitled movie has been billed as an “original event film”.

Based on a story by Spielberg, the screenplay is written by longtime collaborator David Koepp, who previously collaborated with the director for Jurassic Park and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

Spielberg last directed the semi-autobiographical The Fabelmans, which was released in 2022.

Blunt, 41, was most recently seen in The Fall Guy, co-starring Ryan Gosling.

Her film credits also include critically-acclaimed and blockbusters like Edge of Tomorrow, A Quiet Place and Christopher Nolan’s multiple Oscar-winning movie Oppenheimer.

Her upcoming movie is The Smashing Machine, opposite Dwayne Johnson.

New-age cos may turn to phantom stocks, warrants to reward founders

The market regulator’s expansive definition of promoters for companies going public may put them in a bind over how to reward founders. Since promoters are ineligible to be granted employee stock option plans (ESOPs), the new-age firms may turn to alternatives such as phantom stock units, warrants and sweat equity to compensate founders.

The market regulator has been insisting that founders of IPO-bound companies holding 10 per cent or more classify themselves as promoters. Even founders collectively holding 10 per cent are to be considered promoters if they are key managerial personnel (KMP) or a director in the company.

Also read: SEBI bans former TV anchor, analyst for five years

Payout of phantom stock units — where the units only track the upside of share value and the benefit is paid out in cash — may gain traction. These structures adhere to the commercial requirements in terms of ensuring that the benefit will accrue to the unitholders only if there is a growth in share value.

‘No specific terms’

“As this is unregulated, there are no specific terms under law that will have to complied with, like obtaining shareholders’ approval, minimum one-year cliff/vesting period and payment of exercise price, and it becomes purely contractual in nature. This will give the companies and founders a lot more flexibility in structuring how and when the benefits will accrue,” said Bharath Reddy, Partner, Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas.

Through its informal guidance issued to MindTree and Saregama, SEBI has clarified that pure cash-based benefit schemes which don’t deal in securities are not governed by its share-based employee benefit regulations. “Even before an IPO, the Companies Act, 2013, does not permit the granting of stock options to a founder identified as a promoter, except for promoters of start-ups recognised by DPIIT. As a result, unlisted companies have been incentivising such founders by granting phantom stock options,” said Shabnam Shaikh, Partner, Khaitan & Co.

In instances where a company is cash-strapped or investors want founders to have more at stake, new structures are being explored. Founders are being granted convertible instruments such as optionally convertible preference shares or warrants. “These instruments closely resemble employee stock options. If the vesting conditions are not met, the warrants are forfeited or cancelled and the OCRPS are redeemed at the acquisition price,” said Shaikh.

The conversion of warrants into shares, however, may create tax issues, and if the share price is already high, the issuance of convertible shares could require the employee to incur significant upfront costs, added Shaikh.

Sweat equity

Another option is sweat equity, which can be issued both pre- or post-IPO. Sweat equity shares are equity shares issued to the directors or employees at a discount or for a consideration other than cash for their know-how or expertise brought to the company.

Pre-IPO issuance, however, will add to the founders’ shareholding which will further contribute to them being classified as a promoter, said Kriti Kaushik, Partner, Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas & Co.

Last year, proxy advisory firm IiAS had petitioned SEBI to relook at whether Paytm founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma was eligible to receive stock options. Sharma’s direct equity holding at the time of the IPO had reduced to 9.1 per cent from 14.7 per cent earlier.

Četiri jeftine namirnice s niskim glikemijskim indeksom koje pomažu pri mršavljenju

HRANA s niskim glikemijskim indeksom ključna je komponenta općeg blagostanja. Sporije se probavlja i apsorbira, što znači da se dulje osjećamo siti kada je jedemo.

Prehrana bogata tim namirnicama pomaže u kontroli tjelesne težine povećanjem osjećaja sitosti i smanjenjem unosa kalorija te istovremeno stabilizira razinu šećera u krvi, što je bitno za dijabetičare.

Koje namirnice pomažu u mršavljenju, održavanju zdrave razine kolesterola i šećera u krvi? Nutricionistica Varsha Khatri podijelila je za SheFinds svoja četiri omiljena odabira.

Mahunarke

Osim što imaju prirodno nizak udio zasićenih masti i pune su topivih i netopivih vlakana, mahunarke su izvrstan izvor biljnih proteina. Uključivanje mahunarki, poput graha, slanutka i leće, u prehranu može pomoći u snižavanju kolesterola i pridonijeti smanjenju rizika od kardiovaskularnih bolesti.

Istraživanja pokazuju da mahunarke mogu oponašati učinke lijekova poput Ozempica i Wegovyja, koji ubijaju glad.

Bobičasto voće

Bobičasto voće bogato je dijetalnim vlaknima, uključujući topiva vlakna poput pektina. Pektin usporava stopu apsorpcije šećera u krvotok, pomažući u kontroli razine šećera u krvi.

Zob

Zahvaljujući visokom udjelu vlakana, zob povećava sitost. Zob također sadrži beta-glukan, topivo vlakno za koje se pokazalo da snižava kolesterol, tako što se veže na žučne kiseline u tijelu.

Orašasti plodovi

Orašasti plodovi su dobar izvor vitamina, minerala, zdravih masti, ali i dijetalnih vlakana. Ovi elementi pomažu u kontroli gladi i čine da se osjećamo sitima, čime se smanjuju šanse za prekomjernu konzumaciju hrane.

Skin Cancer: Here’s Why You Should Look Out for New Skin Growth, Size and Colour of Moles

New Delhi, June 13: On Thursday, after American pop singer and actor Kevin Jonas shared that he underwent surgery to remove basal cell carcinoma, doctors suggest that one should always pay attention to new skin growth, size and colour of moles as it could be skin cancer.

In a video posted on his Instagram account, Kevin shared that he underwent surgery to remove basal cell carcinoma, a type of skin cancer that most often develops on areas of skin exposed to the sun, such as the face from his forehead. “Yes, that is an actual little skin cancer guy that started to grow and now I have to get surgery to remove it. Make sure to get those moles checked people,” shared Kevin Jonas, brother-in-law of Indian actress Priyanka Chopra. Kevin Jonas Shares Skin Cancer Diagnosis.

Kevin Jonas Shares Video of Removal of Basal Cell Carcinoma Post-Surgery

The news highlights how crucial it is to keep an eye on moles and new skin growths, especially in younger people. Pooja Babbar, Consultant – Medical Oncology at CK Birla Hospital, Gurugram stated, “Even while it could be easy to write off skin changes as nothing serious simply, there are some symptoms that need to be seen by a doctor right away. These consist of any progressive changes in size, shape, or colour as well as asymmetry, uneven borders, various colours and a diameter bigger than a pencil. Because skin cancer, especially melanoma, can be aggressive in its early stages but is highly treatable, early diagnosis is critical.”

On the other hand, Vineeta Goel, Senior Director & HOD – Radiation Oncology at Fortis Hospital, Shalimar Bagh said, “Pay attention to any new skin growth, non-healing skin ulcer or swelling or change in any moles like (increase in size, change in colour, bleeding) and consult your doctors.”

The expert advised always to use sunscreen, hats, gloves and other protective clothing when stepping out in the sun and maintain a healthy lifestyle to prevent skin cancers. S C Bharija, Chairperson, Department of Dermatology at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, stated that moles, especially on white skin, need to be monitored regularly. “They should be protected from UVA radiation by avoiding extreme sun exposure. In case of a sudden increase in size, the presence of itching or bleeding and darkening of the lesions should not be ignored, and urgent medical opinions should be taken. An early skin biopsy would help to diagnose the problem,” he added.

In order to improve treatment outcomes, the experts also recommended regular self-inspections and professional skin checks to aid in early detection. Vineeta Goel further added, “Early diagnosis requires lesser treatment and results in higher cure rates — this is a golden line for every cancer, including skin cancers. Skin cancers are easy to pick up at an early stage as they get noticed if one is little aware of them.”

Htio si je kupiti majicu na ženskom odjelu u Zari. Kaže da ga je radnica ismijala

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

KUPOVINA na odjelu suprotnog spola uobičajena je praksa mnogih. Iako najčešće žene prošeću i do drugih odjela, poput dječjeg, a često i do muškog kako bi našle udobnu košulju, duks, trenirku ili neke kul hlače kojih na njihovom odjelu nema, i muškarci znaju otići izvidjeti situaciju na ženskom odjelu.

Upravo to htio je učiniti tiktoker Josip Piteša, ali iskustvo je, kako kaže, ispalo neugodno. Na svom TikTok profilu požalio se na situaciju koja ga je zadesila u splitskoj trgovini Zara. U videu je istaknuo da često kupuje u Zari i da je s nekim prodavačima već razvio prijateljski odnos.

U ovu trgovinu uputio se u potrazi za običnom crnom oversized majicom, a kako ju nije našao na muškom odjelu, zaputio se na ženski odjel, gdje ju je i pronašao.

“Mislim da je to jedan jako ružan mentalitet”

No kada je zamolio prodavačicu da mu donese veličinu koju je tražio, Josip kaže da je ona posprdno rekla kolegici: “Ajme, vidi ovoga influencera, kupuje na ženskom odjelu.” Dodao je da mu je zbog njezine reakcije bilo jako neugodno.

“Curo, zar je sramota nešto kupiti bazično i na ženskom odjelu ako to može nositi i muško i žensko”, rekao joj je. Na to mu je ona odgovorila da se samo malo šalila. “To nije šala, to je izrugivanje i podsmjehivanje”, dodao je. Istaknuo je da ne vidi problem u tome da se pojedini komadi odjeće kupuju na odjelima suprotnog spola. 

“Mislim da je to jedan jako ružan mentalitet kod nas Hrvata i da bi trebali zaista poraditi na tome”, istaknuo je referirajući se na prodavačicu i njezinu reakciju. No na kraju je naglasio da će, unatoč ovom negativnom iskustvu, nastaviti kupovati u Zari.

“Ja znam i na dječjem i muškom za sebe kupovati. Roba je roba”, “Apsolutno te podržavam, imao sam slično iskustvo u Zari u Osijeku. Samo nastavi”, “Glupost! Ja kupujem muške majice i što ćemo sad?”, neki su od komentara ispod njegovog videa.

Hollywood’s A-listers are lining up behind Joe Biden. Will their support matter in November?

And, in another instance blurring lines between real life and make-believe, during a fundraiser at the home of veteran actor Michael Douglas, Biden, the actual president, congratulated the star of the 1996 hit “The American President” on his fictional administration’s success.

Ballot box star power?For all the celebrity supporters, though, there’s little expectation they can determine votes. Rather, they are seen as having the ability to inject excitement that helps energize supporters.

Lexi Underwood, whose credits include the streaming series “Little Fires Everywhere,” calls acting a “contact sport” that allows her to interact with the public and makes her determined to use her influence responsibly. She has participated in a recent virtual “Students for Biden” event and traveled to Nevada to appear at campaign events focused on women’s health issues.

“I’m very fortunate to have certain eyes on me,” said Underwood, 20. “I feel really responsible to make sure that what I put out there, either people are being informed on things that they weren’t previously informed on, or that I’m motivating them to get out there and vote.”

Biden’s campaign says its chief focus is finding authentic and trusted messengers who can promote the president’s policy achievements and raise the alarm about GOP “extremism,” and that means deploying everyday supporters as well as famous ones. It has produced ads featuring a Pennsylvania union worker, a Black entrepreneur in Detroit and women adversely affected by strict abortion limits in Texas.

Fai Nelson, a human resources worker who attended a recent Vice President Kamala Harris event in Prince George’s County, Maryland, said celebrity voices can make a difference “if they can touch the audience.”

“It’s whether the message is relevant,” said Nelson, 42.

Lessons from last timeDuring the pandemic-era campaign of 2020, Biden’s campaign featured celebrities in scores of virtual events that showed the importance of staying flexible so that stars can present themselves in the most authentic ways.

Adrienne Elrod, who served as Biden’s 2020 director of surrogate strategy and operations, said famous Biden supporters often “will come forward with their own ideas” on how to help the campaign and what issues they’d like to focus on.

“We’ll oftentimes have ideas for them as well,” she said. “That’s why there’s always a very productive working relationship when we’re engaging these folks.”

De Niro has taken on an increasingly prominent role in Biden’s campaign. Before his confrontation with the Trump supporters, the actor held a press conference calling the former president a “clown.” He’s also attended Biden fundraisers and narrated a campaign ad accusing Trump of having “snapped” after he lost the 2020 election.

Karoline Leavitt, a spokesperson for the former president’s campaign, said, “The only people in America who support Joe Biden’s failing campaign are elitist Hollywood celebrities,” adding that Trump “speaks for the forgotten men and women of this country.”

Trump has his own list of celebrity endorsers, which includes musicians Kid Rock and Ted Nugent, UFC CEO Dana White, media personality Caitlyn Jenner and actors Dennis Quaid and Jon Voight, as well as comedian Roseanne Barr.

Elrod said other stars are anxious to follow De Niro’s lead for Biden but are waiting “until the moment can truly be maximized” before they get involved. She pointed to 2020, when Bruce Springsteen narrated a Biden ad featuring his song “My Hometown” just before the election.

“I think you’ll see more moments like this, when we’re using those voices strategically and effectively at the time that makes the most sense for us on the campaign,” said Elrod, who is a Biden campaign spokesperson this cycle.

David Schmid, an English professor at the University of Buffalo who studies popular culture, said celebrities can influence fans’ aspirations and what they consume. But their influence “over peoples’ voting habits has been really exaggerated,” he said.

That’s the case for Alex Dillion, a rising sophomore at American University in Washington who also attended the Harris event in Maryland. Asked which famous person might influence him politically, Dillion offered, “Maybe Obama.”

Taylor Swift Effect?Schmid said one celebrity with outsized political influence might be Taylor Swift, who sent shockwaves even through the NFL last season. She endorsed Biden in 2020 and is being openly courted by the campaign this time on social media, and even in a press release that saluted her latest album.

Her touch isn’t a guarantee of victory, though. In 2018, Swift endorsed two Democratic candidates in Tennessee who lost. And Schmid said that even someone as famous as Swift “knows things are polarizing and they don’t want to take major risks” on candidates and contentious issues.

For all the Biden team’s work with celebrities, the president still tries to cultivate the image of someone in tune with ordinary people.

During a campaign swing through Saginaw, Michigan, the president visited a public golf course and met with community activist Coleman Hurley III and his son.

“The celebrities that have everything they want and they need, they may possibly be out of touch,” the older Hurley said later in a phone interview.

As for ordinary Americans, Hurley added, Biden needs to be able to “relate and see where they live … and then have a conversation about some of the different struggles or issues that we, or other Americans, face.”

Biden’s on Target About What Repealing ACA Would Mean for Preexisting Condition Protections

Jacob Gardenswartz

If the Affordable Care Act were terminated, “that would mean over a hundred million Americans will lose protections for preexisting conditions.”

President Joe Biden in a campaign advertisement, May 8

President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign wants voters to contrast his record on health care policy with his predecessor’s. In May, Biden’s campaign began airing a monthlong, $14 million ad campaign targeting swing-state voters and minority groups with spots on TV, digital, and radio.

In the ad, titled “Terminate,” Biden assails former President Donald Trump for his past promises to overturn the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. Biden also warns of the potential effect if Trump is returned to office and again pursues repeal.

“That would mean over a hundred million Americans will lose protections for preexisting conditions,” Biden said in the ad.

Less than six months from Election Day, polls show Trump narrowly leading Biden in a head-to-head race in most swing states. And voters trust Trump to better handle issues such as inflation, crime, and the economy by significant margins.

An ABC News/Ipsos poll of about 2,200 adults, released in early May, shows the only major policy issues on which Biden received higher marks than Trump were health care and abortion access. It’s no surprise, then, that the campaign is making those topics central to Biden’s pitch to voters.

As such, we dug into the facts surrounding Biden’s claim.

Preexisting Condition Calculations

The idea that 100 million Americans are living with one or more preexisting conditions is not new. It was the subject of a back-and-forth between then-candidate Biden and then-President Trump during their previous race, in 2020. After Biden cited that statistic in a presidential debate, Trump responded, “There aren’t a hundred million people with preexisting conditions.”

A KFF Health News/PolitiFact HealthCheck at the time rated Biden’s claim to be “mostly true,” finding a fairly large range of estimates — from 54 million to 135 million — of the number of Americans with preexisting conditions. Estimates on the lower end tend to consider “preexisting conditions” to be more severe chronic conditions such as cancer or cystic fibrosis. Estimates at the spectrum’s higher end include people with more common health problems such as asthma and obesity, and behavioral health disorders such as substance use disorder or depression.

Biden’s May ad focuses on how many people would be vulnerable if protections for people with preexisting conditions were lost. This is a matter of some debate. To understand it, we need to break down the protections put in place by the ACA, and those that exist separately.

Before and After

Before the ACA’s preexisting condition protections took effect in 2014, insurers in the individual market — people buying coverage for themselves or their families — could charge higher premiums to people with particular conditions, restrict coverage of specific procedures or medications, set annual and lifetime coverage limits on benefits, or deny people coverage.

“There were a number of practices used by insurance companies to essentially protect themselves from the costs associated with people who have preexisting conditions,” said Sabrina Corlette, a co-director of the Center on Health Insurance Reforms at Georgetown University and an expert on the health insurance marketplace.

Insurers providing coverage to large employers could impose long waiting periods before employees’ benefits kicked in. And though employer-sponsored plans couldn’t discriminate against individual employees based on their health conditions, small-group plans for businesses with fewer than 50 employees could raise costs across the board if large numbers of employees in a given company had such conditions. That could prompt some employers to stop offering coverage.

“The insurer would say, ‘Well, because you have three people with cancer, we are going to raise your premium dramatically,’ and therefore make it hard for the small employer to continue to offer coverage to its workers because the coverage is simply unaffordable,” recalled Edwin Park, a research professor at Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy who researches public health insurance markets.

As a result, many people with preexisting conditions experienced what some researchers dubbed “job lock.” People felt trapped in their jobs because they feared they wouldn’t be able to get health insurance anywhere else.

Some basic preexisting condition protections exist independent of the ACA. The 1996 Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, for example, restricted how insurers could limit coverage and mandated that employer-sponsored group plans can’t refuse to cover someone because of a health condition. Medicare and Medicaid similarly can’t deny coverage based on health background, though age and income-based eligibility requirements mean many Americans don’t qualify for that coverage.

Once the ACA’s preexisting condition protections kicked in, plans sold on the individual market had to provide a comprehensive package of benefits to all purchasers, no matter their health status.

Still, some conservatives say Biden’s claim overstates how many people are affected by Obamacare protections.

Even if you consider the broadest definition of the number of Americans living with such conditions, “there is zero way you could justify that 100 million people would lose coverage” without ACA protections, said Theo Merkel, who was a Trump administration health policy adviser and is now a senior research fellow with the Paragon Health Institute and a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research, a conservative think tank.

Joseph Antos, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, a conservative think tank, called the ad’s preexisting conditions claim “the usual bluster.” To reach 100 million people affected, he said, “you have to assume that a large number of people would lose coverage.” And that’s unlikely to happen, he said.

That’s because most people — about 55% of Americans, according to the most recent government data — receive health insurance through their employers. As such, they’re protected by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act rules, and their plans likely wouldn’t change, at least in the short term, if the ACA went away.

Antos said major insurance companies, which have operated under the ACA for more than a decade, would likely maintain the status quo even without such protections. “The negative publicity would be amazing,” he said.

People who lose their jobs, he said, would be vulnerable.

But Corlette argued that losing ACA protections could lead to Americans being priced out of their plans, as health insurers again begin medical underwriting in the individual market.

Park predicted that many businesses could also gradually find themselves priced out of their policies.

“For those firms with older, less healthy workers than other small employers, they would see their premiums rise,” he told KFF Health News.

Moreover, Park said, anytime people lost work or switched jobs, they’d risk losing their insurance, reverting to the old days of job lock.

“In any given year, the number [of people affected] will be much smaller than the 100 million, but all of those 100 million would be at risk of being discriminated against because of their preexisting condition,” Park said.

Our Ruling

We previously ruled Biden’s claim that 100 million Americans have preexisting conditions as in the ballpark, and nothing suggests that’s changed. Depending on the definition, the number could be smaller, but it also could be even greater and is likely to have increased since 2014.

Though Biden’s claim about the number of people who would be affected if those protections went away seems accurate, it is unclear how a return to the pre-ACA situation would manifest.

On the campaign trail this year, Trump has promised — as he did many times in the past — to replace the health law with something better. But he’s never produced a replacement plan. Biden’s claim shouldn’t be judged based on his lack of specificity.

We rate Biden’s claim Mostly True.

International Men’s Health Week 2024: 40% of Indian Men Don’t Talk About Mental Health Openly, Says Experts

New Delhi, June 13: While society has started openly discussing issues such as anxiety, depression and stress, men’s mental health continues to be an overlooked area. About 40 per cent of men in India do not talk about their mental health openly over fear of stigma, said experts on Thursday.

International Men’s Health Week is observed every year from June 10 to June 16 to raise awareness on men’s health issues. Dr Samir Kumar Praharaj, Professor and Head of – the Department of Psychiatry at Kasturba Medical College and Hospitals, MAHE, Manipal, said, “The lack of discussions about men’s mental health or their propensity to seek help along with the growing suicide rates may be explained by the male gender norms that are socially constructed.” Health Experts Emphasise Mental Health, Suggest Meeting Friends, Taking Time To Discuss Issues.

On the other hand, Dr Shyam Bhat, Psychiatrist and Chairperson of Live Love Laugh, added, “About 40 per cent of Indian men don’t talk about their mental health openly, largely due to stigmas and misconceptions, including the mistaken belief that men should handle their emotions on their own.”

Traditionally, men have been expected to be strong, resilient and emotionally stoic by society. Different emotional responses in men can also be attributed to biological and hormonal factors, such as testosterone.

Dr Samir said that in most cases, men are an example of how to mask emotions since it is considered shameful for them to express feelings or seek help. “When depressed, men are more likely to display aggression and anger rather than sadness, compared with women, who may be more in touch with their sadness and vulnerability. Consequently, many men suffer in silence or become isolated and resort to substance abuse as they battle their internal struggles without the support they desperately need. This increases suicide risk in men, and consequently, death by suicide in men occurs 2.5 times more than in women,” he further added.

The doctors suggested awareness campaigns and educational programmes to assist in the elimination of myths and stigmatisation associated with mental disorders as well as to foster conversation. Depression Symptoms: Know the Early Warning Signs To Identifying Depression.

Dr Samir stressed healthy habits such as exercising, doing mindful activities, and engaging in creative outlets for better mental health. “The emphasis should be shifted to altering the perception of male masculinity and persuading men to take their mental health issues seriously and to seek help if they experience any difficulties.”

Stariji ljudi uživat će u društvu ovih 10 pasmina pasa

STARIJI ljudi često su usamljeni, posebno nakon što se njihova djeca odsele, a partner im premine. To su trenutci u kojima će mnogi ljudi pomisliti da je pravo vrijeme za krznenog prijatelja koji će biti njihov najodaniji pratitelj. Poznato je da pseće društvo uvelike pomaže starijim ljudima da se osjećaju bolje, pa ne čudi što se mnogi koriste i kao terapijske životinje.

Držanje kućnog ljubimca pomoći će starijim ljudima da se izbore s usamljenošću i uspostave rutinu. Mnogi ljudi u poznim godinama gotovo uopće ne kreću se i ne izlaze iz kuće pa postaju izolirani te im nedostaje tjelovježbe. Nabavljanje psa riješit će oba problema! Naravno, ovisno o tome kakvog je zdravlja osoba koja psa nabavlja, postoje pasmine koje će se uklopiti u njezinu svakodnevicu. Ove pasmine osigurat će vam sigurnu i ispunjenu starost.

Shih Tzu

Pasmina koja obožava sjedenje u krilu vlasnika idealan je ljubimac za starije ljude koji žive sami. Uz Shih Tzua, nikada se nećete osjećati usamljeno! Jedino oko čega ćete se morati više brinuti jest njihova dlaka, ali vjerujemo da je to nešto u čemu biste uživali.

Francuski buldog

Ovo su psi koji zahtijevaju vašu pažnju, a u mirovini ćete je imati na pretek. Riječ je o pasmini koja će se radije zavaliti s vama na kauč nego otrčati nekoliko krugova. Ponovno, idealno za starije osobe koje i same ne mogu hodati puno i brzo. Ipak, morat ćete pripaziti da ga redovno izvodite u kratke šetnje i ne hranite ga više nego je potrebno kako bi izbjegao probleme s debljanjem kojima je pasmina sklona.

Bišon

Bišon je pas koji će svaku večer gledati televiziju s vama i nikada mu neće dosaditi vaše maženje. Odličan je izbor za umirovljenike koji imaju unuke, budući da se radi o pasmini koja obožava druženje s djecom. Unuci će vam zasigurno dolaziti još češće ako se odlučite za ovog psića.

Španijel kralja Charlesa

Poznati su kao psi prijateljske i mirne naravi koji se ne boje stranaca i nisu teritorijalni. Svakoga pozdravljaju s veseljem, pa neće proći dugo da se naviknu na vas. Također, eventualni posjet veterinaru neće vam uzrokovati glavobolju. Narav ovog psa savršena je za starije osobe željne odmora i mira.

Velški korgi Pembroke

Korgiji su pasmina koju često viđate u društvu starijih osoba. To nikako nije slučajno. Ova je pasmina takva da će vas svaki dan zabavljati i s kojom vam nikada neće biti dosadno. Također, natjerat će vas da nekoliko puta na dan izađete u kratku šetnju kako biste održali njegovu i svoju formu.

Baset

Baseti obožavaju duge i polagane šetnje, koje će odgovarati većini umirovljenika. Ako ste veliki ljubitelj životinja i već imate drugog psa, baset je pravi izbor za vas budući da obožava društvo svoje vrste.

Zlatni retriver

Jedan od najpoznatijih obiteljskih pasa bit će dobar ljubimac i starijim osobama. Njihova blaga narav učinit će im dane zanimljivima i opuštenima, a s vama će rado ići u duge i kratke šetnje.

Maltipoo

Glasna pasmina koja obožava ležati u vašem naručju. Stariji ljudi kojima je potrebno društvo i koji bi u svakom trenutku željeli imati nekoga za razgovor, u Maltipoo psiću pronaći će savršenog ljubimca. Što se tiče njege krzna, morat ćete ga svaki dan četkati kako mu se dlaka ne bi zapetljala.

Patuljasti šnaucer

Patuljasti šnauceri voljet će javljati da je netko na vratima prije nego se zvono oglasi – idealno za starije ljude, posebno ako imate problema sa sluhom. Uz ovog psića, nitko i ništa vam neće promaknuti. Ovo su psi koji zahtijevaju mentalnu stimulaciju, pa vam s njima nikada neće biti dosadno, a i pomoći će vam da sami ostanete britkog uma.

Mops

Ovo je pasmina kojoj nikada nije dosadno i kojoj ne treba previše prostora. Iako zbog linjanja nisu najbolji izbor za osobe s alergijama, neće biti potrebno previše često voditi ih na šišanje. Bit će dovoljno da ih okupate nekoliko puta mjesečno.

‘We released Anjaamai a few years too late’

CHENNAI : Actor Rahman is no stranger to police roles, something that is evident in his filmography. A common element in most of his cop characters is an underlying sense of empathy. Some examples are Umar in Ameer’s Raam, Deepak in Karthick Naren’s Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru, and now the cop-turned-advocate Manikkam in SP Subburaman’s Anjaamai. The actor says that the added dimension of empathy in his character is one of the factors that draws him to a project as it allows him to form an emotional connection with its story. The same goes for Anjaamai, which stars Vidaarth, Vani Bhojan, and Krithik Mohan in pivotal roles. “My character in Anjaamai, Manikkam, is a very empathetic and determined cop who turns into an advocate. He is part of a law enforcement system that lacks this all-too-human quality and that creates hierarchical roadblocks to action, so he becomes a lawyer. When SP Subburaman narrated the story to me, I liked it quite a lot as it has such an emotional pull,” says the actor, speaking from his home in Kochi.

Anjaamai explores the NEET exam and the challenges it poses to the students and to their parents. In other words, it delves into the complexities of underprivileged students struggling to crack the NEET for an MBBS seat. Writer-director Subburaman tells the story from the perspectives of Sarkar (Vidaarth), Saraswathi (Vani Bhojan), and Arundhavam (Krithik Mohan). Rahman’s character has more prominence in the second half of the film, as he leaves his police job and takes up the profession of an advocate to fight the system. The story is pregnant with potency and provocation, and Rahman is quick to recognise its relevance despite the delay in its release.

Broker’s call: Gail India (Sell)

Target: ₹170

CMP: ₹216.95

In next 3-4 years, we expect India’s gas consumption to rise from 191mmscmd in FY24 to 218mmscmd. While GAIL’s transmission would grow by 8 per cent c in FY24-26, trading is expected to grow a tad lower (6 per cent). Petrochemical and LPG are expected to remain muted.

India’s trunk gas pipeline network is expected to rise from 23,391km in FY24-end to 27,516km in the next 3-4years. GAIL’s own network is expected to rise from 16,240km to 19,970km (including spur lines) in the next 2-3years.

With already connected consumers (except power) consuming optimal amount of gas, and fewer new consumer additions, we expect GAIL’s transmission volume to rise from 120mmscmd in FY24 to 130/140 mmscmd in FY25/26E. This includes seasonal boost from the power sector. Bringing natural gas under the GST ambit would bring down gas cost and aid volume growth too.

However, increasingly, consumers are securing their contracts directly, thereby dampening the expected growth rate in trading. Incremental petrochem projects are also margin dilutive. Considering the slow growth in transmission and low return ratios for petrochem expansions, we remain negative on the stock with a Sell rating and target price of ₹170, valuing it at 12x FY26 standalone EPS and adding the value of investments.

Znanstvenici kažu da voće koje se nalazi u gotovo svakoj trgovini smanjuje kolesterol

ONO ŠTO jedemo ima veliki utjecaj na naše zdravlje. Poznato je da određene namirnice smanjuju rizik od opasnih stanja, dok druge mogu imati suprotan učinak.

Kada je riječ o voću, itekako je isplativo konzumirati ga jer je prepuno vitamina i vlakana. Osobito je zdravo crveno grožđe, koje se može naći u gotovo svakoj trgovini.

Prema znanstvenici s londonskog sveučilišta Alex Ruani, crveno grožđe moglo bi pomoći u smanjenju kolesterola i upala te ojačati imunitet. Govoreći za The Times, Ruani je objasnila da je crveno grožđe bogato polifenolima.

“To su antioksidativni biljni spojevi. Crveno grožđe sadrži vrstu zvanu antocijanini, plavi pigment za koji se pokazalo da blagotvorno djeluje na zdravlje mozga, i resveratrol, za koji se pokazalo da ima protuupalni učinak i učinak protiv starenja”, rekla je.

Kora i koštice crvenog grožđa također su bogate drugim antioksidansima, uključujući katehine i epikatehine, za koje se zna da smanjuju oksidativni stres u tijelu.

“Detaljna studija iz 2023. otkrila je da jedenje tri porcije od 80 grama grožđa dnevno tijekom dva tjedna povećava razine korisnih bakterija i smanjuje one koje su potencijalno štetne. To znači da grožđe promiče zdraviji crijevni mikrobiom, koji je povezan s poboljšanom probavom, jačim imunitetom i smanjenom upalom”, rekla je.

Ista studija pokazala je da grožđe smanjuje razinu LDL-a, ili lošeg kolesterola, zbog količine vlakana koje sadrži. 

S obzirom na navedeno, crveno grožđe može biti izvrstan izbor za sprječavanje metaboličkih poremećaja povezanih s oksidativnim stresom, ali i za smanjenje rizika od kardiovaskularnih bolesti povezanih s kolesterolom, osobito kod odraslih ljudi s hiperlipidemijom.

Autoimmune Diseases: Why Women Are Affected More? Hormonal Factors Hold Clues

New Delhi, June 12: Experts on Wednesday said that the reason women are disproportionately impacted by autoimmune disorders compared to males may be due to age, genetic, and hormonal factors. Autoimmune disease occurs when the immune system attacks the body’s tissues. Research indicates that the ailment impacts roughly 8% of individuals globally, with women accounting for 78% of those affected.

Dr Rajeev Gupta, Director of Internal Medicine at the CK Birla Hospital, Delhi, stated that hormonal influence and chromosomal differences are the two main reasons why autoimmune diseases are more common in women. New Approach Needed To Study Autoimmune Diseases Such As Type 1 Diabetes and Multiple Sclerosis.

“Women experience significant hormonal fluctuations throughout their lives, particularly during puberty, pregnancy, and menopause. These changes, especially in oestrogen levels, may influence the immune system and make women more susceptible to mistakenly attacking healthy tissues (autoimmunity),” he added.

Further he said that women have two X chromosomes while men have one X and one Y chromosomes. “One theory suggests that the process of inactivating one X chromosome in each female cell might be incomplete sometimes. This could lead to an overabundance of certain genes on the active X chromosome, potentially triggering an overactive immune response and autoimmunity.”

On the other hand, Dr Yathish G C, Lead Consultant – Rheumatology at Aster Whitefield Hospital, Bengaluru said “Autoimmune disorders in women may be due to the silencing of their second X chromosome by molecules leading to a confusing immune system. This can explain why conditions like multiple sclerosis and lupus are more common in women than men.”

In women, autoimmune illnesses typically increase in frequency beyond the age of thirty, correlating with age-related hormonal shifts though autoimmune illnesses can strike anyone of any age. “Some like multiple sclerosis usually begin between the ages of 20 and 40 years whereas others such as rheumatoid arthritis start manifesting later in the 40s or early in 50s,” added Dr Yathish.

Dr Harman Singh, Consultant Rheumatologist at Fortis Hospital, Kalyan noted a dramatic rise in autoimmune illnesses, notably among women aged 50 and above. Type 2 Diabetes Medication May Be Used to Treat Autoimmune Disease.

Adopting healthy lifestyle habits, such as quitting smoking, abstaining from drinking, practicing stress management techniques, maintaining physical fitness and avoiding environmental toxins, was recommended by the experts.

Žena se kupala u bazenu, a onda je njezin pas napravio nešto što nitko nije očekivao

JADE Louise Lloyd nasmijala je korisnike TikToka videozapisom sa svojim rotvajlerom. Naime, Jade je na svom profilu objavila što je njezin pas radio kada se kupala u bazenu, što je nasmijalo mnoge korisnike ove popularne platforme.

Njezin rotvajler imao je potrebu stalno gurati Jade pod vodu. Svaki put kad bi Jade izronila, pojavio bi se njezin ljubimac koji bi je gotovo odmah ponovo gurnuo pod vodu. Ova situacija nije nimalo uznemirila Jade, bila je mirna tijekom njegove igre, zbog koje njezino uživanje u bazenu nije bilo toliko opuštajuće.

Suradnja Brain Deada x adidasa obara s nogu: “Moje su, vidim ih u svojoj budućnosti”

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

JOŠ u siječnju brend Brain Dead otkrio je da prvi put surađuje s adidasom te da su proizveli cipele za kuglanje. Mnogi su tada misliti kako je riječ o ekskluzivnom modelu obuće, no ispostavilo se da će tenisice biti dostupne za kupnju široj javnosti.

“Trebam ih više od zraka”

Tenisice su dostupne u dvije varijante, dominantno bijeloj naziva Lefty i dominantno crnoj naziva Righty. Riječ je o potpunom reizdanju adidas cipela za kuglanje iz 1978. Cipele imaju drveni klizni potplat i gumenu petu za lakše zaustavljanje.

“Vratit ću se iz mirovine za ovo”, “Najbolja suradnja”, “Već imam kuglu, sad ću konačno imati i cipele”, “Trebam ih”, “Moje su, vidim ih u svojoj budućnosti”, “Više bih išla kuglati da ih imam”, “Prekrasne su”, “Trebam ih više od zraka”, “Zaljubljen sam”, “Kao kuglačica, jako se veselim” neki su od komentara na Instagramu Brain Deada.

Za sve koji žele nositi ove cipele na ulici, Brain Dead napominje da se one lako kližu budući da su u pitanju ipak cipele namijenjene korištenju u kuglani. Za svakodnevno korištenje brend savjetuje promjenu potplata. Cipele su izrađene od kože.

Lefty i Righty cipele su trenutno dostupne na službenoj stranici brenda, svaka po cijeni od 228.95 eura. U pitanju nije klasična prodaja, već se za proizvod potrebno predbilježiti, a kome odlazi novi par, odlučuje se nasumično.

Chilling details of murder over lewd messages emerge

BENGALURU: Shocking details have emerged from the probe into the murder of a man who allegedly made derogatory comments against the friend and co-star of leading Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa.

Darshan, his friend and film actress Pavithra Gowda, and 11 others were arrested in connection with Renukaswamy’s murder on Tuesday. The 47-year-old actor has been remanded to six days’ police custody by a court.

According to police sources, Renukaswamy (33) drew the wrath of Darshan for making lewd comments against Pavithra Gowda on her social media posts. “It was Pavithra who instigated Darshan to punish Renukaswamy. Accordingly, the plan was hatched,” they said.

Renukaswamy hailed from Lakshmi Venkateshwara Layout in Chitradurga and worked with a pharmacy company.

“Darshan engaged the Chitradurga unit of Darshan Fan Club Convenor Raghavendra, alias Raghu, who obtained all information about Renukaswamy.”

Renukaswamy’s wife, Sahana, said Raghavendra picked up her husband on Friday night from near their house.

The victim was abducted and taken to a shed in the Kamakshipalya area of Bengaluru, the sources said.

“Darshan beat up Renukaswamy with a belt. After he fell unconscious, his accomplices thrashed him with sticks. Further, they threw him against a wall, which proved fatal,” they said, adding that there were multiple bone fractures all over his body.

After he died, his body was dumped in a stormwater drain. A food delivery boy who noticed dogs eating a human body alerted the police.

When the police were working on the case, two accused approached Kamakshipalya police and “confessed” to having killed Renukaswamy over a financial dispute.

As the investigation progressed, police found out about Darshan and Pavithra’s involvement.

Cement Stocks: Ambuja, Ultratech, Jk, Dalmia cements, trading positive in the domestic market

A majority of the cement stocks including Ambuja Cements,Ultratech Cement, Shree Cement, JK Cement, Kesoram Industries, Dalmia Bharat, and ACC have been trading positive in the domestic market.

In Wednesday’s trade, these stocks rose by 1-5 per cent. Over the week, they gained 10-20 per cent.

Brokerages Motilal Oswal and Emkay Global have maintained their positive stance on the sector, while Nuvama has reiterated a neutral call.

Motilal Oswal pointed out that the all-India average cement price has increased 3 per cent month-on-month in June 2024. “Considering the cement price hike, the all-India average cement price is estimated to be flat q-o-q [quarter-on-quarter] in 1QFY25 (QTD). Within regions, cement prices in 1QFY25 (QTD) are likely to be up in the western/central regions by 3 per cent/1 per cent q-o-q. Conversely, cement prices are estimated to be down in the northern, eastern, and southern regions in the range of 1-2 per cent,” its report said

Demand in near term

The brokerages estimate cement demand to be subdued or bleak in the near term due to the onset of monsoons in the next few weeks across markets. However, it is believed to rebound strongly in 2HFY25, aided by the new government’s focus on affordable housing, continuing strong demand from real estate, and likely pick-up in industrial capex.

Motilal pointed to the BJP’s 2024 manifesto, which emphasised focus on expanding PM Awas Yojana, slum redevelopment, promoting affordable housing, expanding road network, rail and metro connectivity, and constructing new airports. “We believe the announcements under the forthcoming Budget will be the key monitorables for improvement in the cement demand momentum,” it added.

Emkay Global noted that the cement sector, on average, is trading at a 10 per cent premium to its historical five-year average. The brokerage stated, “The cement industry has been on an uptrend with healthy volume CAGR of 9-10 per cent over FY21-24 (against historical average of 5-6 per cent). Demand may soften in H1FY25; however, we expect steady 7-8 per cent demand CAGR over the next few years.“ It added that cement prices are currently at a three-year low.

However, analysts of Nuvama noted that May 2024 began on a positive note (after muted growth in April) with announcements of price hikes across regions, though a rollback through the month erased most of the gains.

The rollback was mainly a result of poor demand on account of the general elections (which impacted availability of labour) and the heatwave sweeping through vast swathes of the country. “With cement players undertaking cost efficiency measures and fuel prices benign (lag effect), there is likely to be relief on the cost front going ahead, which might soften the adverse impact of muted realisations,” Nuvama added.

Top picks by brokerages

Shares of Ultratech Cement — which featured among top picks of brokerages such as Motilal, Emkay and Anand Rathi — hit a 52-week high on the NSE at ₹11,038.55 on June 12.

Anand Rathi, in a report published earlier this month, mentioned Birla Corporation as its top pick, along with Shree Cement and Ultratech in the large-cap space.

Ambuja Cements also featured among Emkay’s top picks. In the mid-cap space, Motilal Oswal backed Dalmia Bharat and JK Cement stocks.

In addition, JK Cements remained Nuvama’s top pick in the space.

Dijetetičar otkriva tri najbolje namirnice za zdravlje srca i mozga

VEZA između prehrane i općeg blagostanja neporeciva je. Iako je uloga prehrane u tjelesnom zdravlju dobro poznata, važna je i za mentalno zdravlje te zdravlje mozga. Mozak ovisi o stalnoj opskrbi hranjivim tvarima kako bi optimalno funkcionirao. Hrana koju jedemo igra ključnu ulogu u poboljšanju kognitivnih funkcija i smanjenju rizika od neurodegenerativnih bolesti.

Iako postoje neke ultraprerađene namirnice koje treba izbjegavati, postoji i mnoštvo sjajnih namirnica koje možemo dodati u svoju prehranu za zdraviji mozak. Dijetetičar Jesse Feder otkrio je tri takve namirnice koje su odlične za zdravlje mozga, a čak mogu smanjiti i rizik od upale.

1. Špinat

Špinat doprinosi cjelokupnom zdravlju, igra značajnu ulogu u podržavanju funkcije mozga i smanjenju rizika od kognitivnih bolesti. Bogat vitaminima, mineralima i antioksidansima, špinat nudi bezbroj dobrobiti.

“Špinat je prepun vlakana i drugih hranjivih tvari, uključujući vitamine A, C, K, folnu kiselinu, željezo i kalcij. Velika količina antioksidansa izvrsna je za borbu protiv upala u cijelom tijelu, uključujući mozak i srce”, kaže dijetetičar za SheFinds.

2. Borovnice

Borovnice su nevjerojatno korisne za zdravlje mozga i smanjuju rizik od kognitivnih bolesti. Prepune su antioksidansa te pružaju protuupalna svojstva koja mogu koristiti različitim aspektima našeg blagostanja.

Feder naglašava njihov značaj, navodeći: “Borovnice su jedno od voća koje sadrži najviše antioksidansa, a također su prepune vlaknima i drugim hranjivim tvarima, uključujući vitamin C, A, K, kalij i mangan. Visoka količina antioksidansa odlična je za borbu protiv upala u cijelom tijelu. Također su odlične za zdravlje srca i mozga.”

3. Losos

Losos, masna riba bogata omega-3 masnim kiselinama, poznat je po svojim brojnim zdravstvenim dobrobitima, uključujući podršku radu mozga i smanjenje rizika od kognitivnih bolesti. Prepun je visokokvalitetnih proteina, antioksidansa i hranjivih tvari te se smatra proteinskom superhranom.

New Zealand Face West Indies in Virtual Knockout, Rain Threatens To Derail England Again in ICC T20 World Cup 2024

Staring at early elimination, New Zealand will look to dish out a much-improved show in a do-or-die clash against tournament co-hosts West Indies in the T20 World Cup here. New Zealand suffered a batting collapse to be bowled out for 75 in 15.2 overs in a stunning 84-run loss to Afghanistan in their tournament-opener at the Providence Stadium. This loss dropped their run rate to -4.2, the lowest among the four teams in Group D, placing them at the bottom of the standings. West Indies Captain Rovman Powell ‘Pretty Confident’ Before Facing New Zealand in ICC T20 World Cup 2024.

Now, they find themselves on the brink of a rare group stage exit — an unexpected predicament for a team known for its remarkable consistency in World Cups, having reached the semi-finals in all six recent editions: the ODI World Cups of 2015, 2019, and 2023, and the T20 World Cups of 2016, 2021, and 2022.

Only two of their batters managed to score double digits and the Kane Williamson-led side will have to buck up as a batting unit to pose any challenge to the local favourites. It’s not just the batting, their fielding also put them down as they dropped easy chances, missed stumping and run-out as the Afghanistan opening duo of Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran set it up with a solid 103-run opening stand.

West Indies on the other hand face no such issues as a Super Eight berth will be up for grabs if they manage to secure a third win on the trot. Having started off with a scrappy win over Papua New Guinea, WI have started to come on their own and coasted to a 134-run victory after bowling out Uganda for 39 in their previous match.

Teams

West Indies Squad: Rovman Powell (c), Brandon King, Johnson Charles, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Sherfane Rutherford, Andre Russell, Romario Shepherd, Roston Chase, Akeal Hosein, Alzarri Joseph, Gudakesh Motie, Obed McCoy, Shamar Joseph, Shimron Hetmyer and Shai Hope.

New Zealand Squad: Kane Williamson (c), Finn Allen, Devon Conway (wk), Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Phillips, Mark Chapman, Michael Bracewell, Mitchell Santner, Matt Henry, Lockie Ferguson, Trent Boult, Tim Southee, Ish Sodhi, James Neesham and Rachin Ravindra.

Match starts: 6am IST.

Bangladesh, Netherlands hope to stay alive

Bangladesh and the Netherlands will look to keep their Super Eight hopes alive when they lock horn in a crucial Group D fixture at Kingstown.

In the group of death, South Africa have already made the cut and the fight is among the Bangladesh, Netherlands, Nepal and Sri Lanka — in that order — to book the second slot.

Having started off with a two-wicket win over Sri Lanka, a nervy Bangladesh let it slip against South Africa to go down by four runs in their last match.

Netherlands too are coming on the back of a reversal against South Africa and will hope to bounce back. WI vs NZ Dream11 Team Prediction, ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Match 26: Tips and Suggestions To Pick Best Winning Fantasy Playing XI for West Indies vs New Zealand in Trinidad.

Teams

Bangladesh: Najmul Hossain Shanto (c), Taskin Ahmed, Litton Das, Soumya Sarkar, Tanzid Hasan Tamim, Shakib Al Hasan, Tawhid Hridoy, Mahmud Ullah Riyad, Jaker Ali Anik, Tanvir Islam, Shak Mahedi Hasan, Rishad Hossain, Mustafizur Rahman, Shoriful Islam and Tanzim Hasan Sakib.

Netherlands: Scott Edwards (c), Aryan Dutt, Bas de Leede, Kyle Klein, Logan van Beek, Max O’Dowd, Michael Levitt, Paul van Meekeren, Ryan Klein, Saqib Zulfiqar, Sybrand Engelbrecht, Teja Nidamanuru, ??Tim Pringle, Vikram Singh, Viv Kingma and Wesley Barresi.

Match starts: 8pm IST

Rain threat for England vs Oman

Rain forecast has once again threatened to derail defending champions England who also are on the verge of an early exit and will face Oman in first of their two must wins matches at North Sound. England, who have just one point from two matches after a washout against Scotland, will face Namibia in their final group league clash at the same venue. There has been a rain forecast and Jos Buttler’s men will have a watch on the sky.

Wins in both the matches may not be enough for England as Scotland (5 points from three matches) are ahead of the race. Scotland may get to seven points by virtue of a win over Australia and England’s Super Eight hopes may eventually rest on the hands of their arch-rivals.

Teams

England: Jos Buttler (c), Moeen Ali, Jofra Archer, Jonathan Bairstow, Harry Brook, Sam Curran, Ben Duckett, Tom Hartley, Will Jacks, Chris Jordan, Liam Livingstone, Adil Rashid, Phil Salt, Reece Topley and Mark Wood.

Oman: Aqib Ilyas (c), Zeeshan Maqsood, Kashyap Prajapati, Pratik Athavale, Ayaan Khan, Shoaib Khan, Mohammad Nadeem, Naseem Khushi, Mehran Khan, Bilal Khan, Rafiullah, Kaleemullah, Fayyaz Butt, Shakeel Ahmad and Khalid Kail.

Match starts: 12.30 am IST (Friday).

People are easily offended these days says Raaj Shaandilyaa

CHENNAI: Luv Ki Arrange Marriage is an unusual case of boy-meets-girl. It tells the story of a couple, played by Sunny Singh and Avneet Kaur, who meet during an arranged marriage set-up. However, trouble ensues when the boy’s father (Annu Kapoor), a widower, falls in love with the girl’s mother (Supriya Pathak), who is also a single parent. The ZEE5 film, which is all set to release on June 14, promises to be a new-age take on marriage where the young couple try to fix up their own relationship while figuring out the love between their respective parents.

In the film, Avneet plays Ishika, a confident girl who always speaks her mind, while in reality, Avneet is an introvert. She feels that the character appealed to her primarily due to this contrast. “I wanted to play someone like that on-screen because in reality I take time to open up to people,” says the actor.

Moreover, what made the filming process enriching was the presence of seasoned actors like Rajpal Yadav, Supriya, and Annu, who brought their learnings on set. “The process of making a scene come to life was beautiful. All of us would discuss it together and add different flavours of our own to what was already written,” says Avneet.

Sunny found much joy in sharing screen space with the senior actors. “You just give them a line and they will come up with ten ways of saying it,” he says. “It is difficult to match their level but we can try to catch up.” Even though Sunny has showcased his acting prowess in the past with films like Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 (2015), Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018), and Ujda Chaman (2019), he feels grateful to have worked in this film as it was a learning process for him as well. “There are many things which will stay with me when I do my next film. I remember feeling sad on the last day on set. I wished the shooting went on for longer.”

Even though Luv Ki Arrange Marriage is only Ishrat R Khan’s second film as a director, after the 2023 social drama, Guthlee Ladoo, he found that none of them had any issue taking directions from him. “They don’t have an iota of ego. Once they came on set, they became an open slate with a child-like curiosity,” he says. During the shoot, Annu had a sudden heart attack and was hospitalised, making everyone worried. However, when Sunny went to meet him at the hospital, Annu started narrating the script of the film to him. His enthusiasm was undeterred even when he recovered, as Ishrat recollects, “He came back on set and started dancing for the song sequences as if nothing happened. His energy was infectious.”

Broker’s call: SBI (Buy) – The Hindu BusinessLine

Target: ₹1,050

CMP: ₹835.25

State Bank of India has delivered a strong all-round performance for the past few years and has achieved new milestones in profitability (PAT surpassed ₹60,000 crore in FY24). The bank has demonstrated considerable improvements in underwriting standards, while the consistent strengthening of its balance sheet has brought NPAs to pristine levels.

In terms of returns, SBI has delivered a 34 per cent CAGR over the past two years, with its market cap swelling to $89 billion. Our assessment of large global banks shows that SBI has delivered the best-in-class RoE and loan growth among large global banks.

During FY22-24, SBIN has delivered a 16 per cent CAGR in loans, outperforming many large peers. Interestingly, the current size of SBIN’s balance sheet at ₹62-lakh crore is more than the GDP of almost 174 countries in the world. We reckon that this gap is only going to widen as SBIN delivers steady growth going ahead. SBI has demonstrated high agility and superior execution even at this huge size and is well poised to maintain this momentum.

A strong liability profile, an enviable CD ratio and robust tech capabilities position SBI well to capitalise on growth opportunities as a stable policy environment and continued reforms continue to bolster overall economic activity.

Ako želite povećati unos vitamina B12, trebali biste češće i više jesti ove namirnice

VITAMIN B12 neophodan je za razne tjelesne funkcije, poput pravilnog rada mozga i živaca te proizvodnje crvenih krvnih stanica. Ovaj vitamin može se uzimati kao dodatak prehrani, ali se prirodno nalazi i u određenim namirnicama životinjskog podrijetla te drugim prehrambenim proizvodima.

Ako mislite da vam nedostaje ovog vitamina i želite ga unijeti u organizam, trebali biste češće konzumirati ovih pet namirnica bogatih vitaminom B12.

U kojim se namirnicama nalazi vitamin B12?

Vitamin B12 može se pronaći u namirnicama poput jaja, tune, mlijeka i mliječnih proizvoda, cjelovitih žitarica, pilećih prsa i lososa.

Jedan od najboljih izvora proteina, zdravih masti i vitamina B12 su jaja. U ovoj popularnoj namirnici količina vitamina B12 više se nalazi u žumanjku nego u bjelanjku, ali za maksimalnu korist najbolje je konzumirati cijelo jaje, prenosi Health Shots.

Na popisu namirnica nalazi se i tuna. Kako prenosi Health Shots, tuna sadrži proteine i vitamin B12, a jedenje svježe ili konzervirane tune može značajno pridonijeti dnevnom unosu ovog vitamina. Također, u tuni se nalaze i omega-3 masne kiseline koje su korisne za zdravlje srca.

Vitamin B12 u tijelo možete unijeti konzumacijom mlijeka i mliječnih proizvoda. Mlijeko, sir i jogurt puni su vitamina B12, ali i kalcija i vitamina D koji podržavaju zdravlje kostiju. Za one koji ne podnose laktozu, preporučuje se konzumirati mlijeko bez laktoze ili neko mlijeko na biljnoj bazi.

Uz mlijeko, u prehranu možete dodati i cjelovite žitarice, od kojih su mnoge obogaćene vitaminom B12. Prije nego što odaberete žitarice u trgovini, provjerite sadrže li vitamin B12 kako biste mogli biti sigurni da kupujete žitarice koje želite. 

Također, ako želite povećati unos vitamina B12, u prehranu možete češće uključiti pileća prsa i losos. Pileća prsa su izvor nemasnih proteina i osiguravaju dobru količinu vitamina B12 te se mogu kombinirati u raznim jelima. Slično kao i s pilećim prsima, losos se isto može jesti u mnogim kombinacijama. 

Ova popularna riba bogata je hranjivim tvarima s visokim udjelom vitamina B12, omega-3 masnih kiselina i vitamina D. Kako prenosi Health Shots, redovita konzumacija lososa podržava cjelokupno zdravlje kardiovaskularnog sustava i mozga.

Zagreb je dobio Bark Park, vlasnici pasa su oduševljeni: “Ovo je trebalo Hrvatskoj”

BILI SMO u Bark Parku kod okretišta Prečko koji vodi mladi Holden Kekez (26). Do Bark Parka možete doći s okretišta Prečko gdje morate pratiti makadamsku cestu i zatim skrenuti lijevo na stazu koja vodi prema parku. Pričali smo s Kekezom o tome kako je došao na ideju otvaranja ovakvog parka.

> U Zagrebu otvoren poseban park za pse, Bark Park. Bili smo na druženju s njuškicama

“Ideja stoji već 5-6 godina, ali ne i financije. U zadnje vrijeme se sve posložilo pa sam s kolegicom Lanom odlučio pokrenuti ovu inicijativu zapravo po uzoru na još jedan park – Sniff spot u Americi. Sniff spot je internacionalan i mi smo se prijavili da nas registriraju kao prostor na web stranici. Iza projekta stojim ja i kolegica Lana Huskanović, veterinarka i vlasnica Lucky Pet PetSitting, hotela za pse”, rekao je Holden koji inače pomaže na treninzima pasa te čuva i šeta pse.

Ističe da je park u pravilu otvoren svaki dan. “Park radi do jutra pa do 21-22 sata jer ne bi baš htjeli tu biti po mraku”, kazao je. Kekez tvrdi da imaju svakakve ponude za pse i njihove vlasnike.

“Opće veselje i velika ljubav je cilj cijelog parka”

“Vi možete za plašljive pse rentati duboko ograđen prostor gdje vaš pas može konačno iskoristiti mjesto gdje se vi kao vlasnik ne morate bojati za svog psa. Organizirat ćemo i individualne radionice na kojima će biti cijenjeni treneri Hrvatske. Možete uzeti pakete ili individualne sate, a organiziramo i rođendane. Cijena se kreira po ponudi.”

Psi u Bark Parku mogu uživati u raznim aktivnostima. Tako imaju penjalice koje sve po sebi imaju umjetnu travu, gume za žvakanje, kutije s lopticama, s korijenjem, s vodom i patkicama, prepreke za preskakanje, tunele, rupu s pijeskom. Holden tvrdi kako su vlasnici pasa oduševljeni Bark Parkom. “Wow, ovo je stvarno trebalo Hrvatskoj – to mi drugi vlasnici pasa govore”, kaže on. 

“Ako imate bilo kakav prijedlog ili savjet, slobodno se javite. Možda ovo može postati franšiza po cijelom gradu. Opće veselje i velika ljubav je cilj cijelog parka”, zaključio je Kekez.

Apple Intelligence će, za sada, funkcionirati samo na ova dva iPhonea

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

APPLE je na WWDC-u 2024 konačno napravio veliki korak u svijet umjetne inteligencije (ili AI). Sve nove značajke umjetne inteligencije za iPhone, iPad i Mac tvrtka je objedinila pod jednim imenom – Apple Intelligence. Ovo je slično kao što Samsung svoje AI značajke naziva Galaxy AI, a Google ih svrstava pod naziv Gemini.

>> Apple predstavio iOS 18. Ljude najviše oduševila ova značajka

No, nažalost, neće svi vlasnici iPhonea moći koristiti Apple Intelligence. Zbog hardverskih ograničenja, samo dva postojeća iPhonea podržavat će ove značajke: iPhone 15 Pro i iPhone 15 Pro Max. Zahvaljujući A17 Pro čipsetu u tim telefonima, oni su trenutno jedini sposobni podržavati AI značajke koje dolaze s Apple Intelligenceom.

Apple Intelligence prvo će biti dostupan u beta verziji

Naravno, lansiranje iPhonea 16 je pred vratima. Glasine kažu da će svi modeli iPhonea 16 dobiti novi A18 čip i podržavati Apple Intelligence, navodi Android Authority. Čak i ako A18 ostane rezerviran za Pro modele, iPhone 16 i 16 Plus bi dobili A17 Pro koji već podržava te značajke.

Postojat će i drugi načini za pristup Apple Intelligenceu – iPadi i Macovi s M1 čipom ili novijim moći će koristiti nove AI alate. No, ako želite te značajke na iPhoneu i nemate 15 Pro ili 15 Pro Max, morat ćete se baciti u trošak i nabaviti novi telefon.

Apple Intelligence bit će dostupan u beta verziji ove jeseni na iPhoneu 15 Pro, iPhoneu 15 Pro Max te na iPadima i Macovima s M1 čipom i novijima, uz postavke Siri i jezika na američki engleski, kao dio iOS-a 18, iPadOS-a 18 i macOS-a Sequoia.

Stock market: Top gainers and losers; ONGC, Tata Motors, Adani Ports emerge as top gainers; Reliance Industries decline

India’s equity benchmarks BSE Sensex and NSE Nifty closed on a flat note on Tuesday, tracking mixed global cues. While the Sensex closed 33.49 points, or 0.04%, lower at 76,456.59, the broader Nifty50 gained 5.65 points, or 0.02%, at 23,264.85.

ONGC, Tata Motors,L&T, Adani Ports & SEZ, and Maruti were the top gainers within the Nifty50 pack. Kotak Mahindra Bank, Divi’s Laboratories, ITC, Reliance Industries, and Dr Reddy’s Laboratories were the major laggards.

Sectoral indices showed a mixed a trend. Nifty media, oil & gas, and realty stocks were up over 1 per cent each. Meanwhile, healthcare index, pharma, FMCG, private bank, bank, and metal stocks closed in the red. Nifty Bank slipped 0.15 per cent to 49,705.75.

In addition, railway stocks such as RailTel (8.61%), RVNL (4.21%), IRCTC (4.20%), and IRFC (1.79%) surged.

Shrikant Chouhan, Head Equity Research, Kotak Securities, said the benchmark indices continued non-directional activity for the second day in a row.

“Technically, after a muted opening the index witnessed lacklustre activity. The short-term texture suggesting 23400/77000 would be the key resistance zone for the short-term traders, while 23200/76300 would act as a crucial support zone. We are of the view that, post 23400/77000 breakout the market could rally up to 23500-23525/77300-77400. On the other side, below 23200/76300 the index could retest the level of 23050-23000/76000-75800,” Chouhan added.

A total of 3,969 stocks were traded on the BSE, of which 2,463 advanced, 1,391 declined and 109 remained unchanged. The number of stocks that hit 52-week high was 254, and those that hit 52-week low was 22.

In addition, 378 stocks hit the upper circuit and 130 hit the lower circuit.

Shares of Union Bank of India closed at ₹146.80, down by 0.29 per cent. The board has approved raising of funds not exceeding ₹10,000 crore.

Dredging Corporation closed the day’s trade at upper circuit (at a 52-week high) on securing new order.

The other major stocks that hit 52-week high on the NSE include Essar Shipping (20%), Panache Digilife (20%), Hindustan Construction Company (19.10%), Aditya Birla Money (4.62%), and Tata Steel (0.73%).

Liječnik tvrdi da dvije navike mogu ubrzati metabolizam za 30 posto

METABOLIZAM je proces kojim tijelo pretvara hranu u energiju. Brži metabolizam znači da naše tijelo učinkovitije sagorijeva kalorije, što može pomoći u mršavljenju i poboljšati ukupnu razinu energije. Iznenađujuće je da bi ubrzavanje metabolizma za 30 posto moglo biti lakše nego što mislimo, tvrdi liječnik dr. Joseph Ambani. Uvođenjem određenih navika i promjenama životnog stila, možemo značajno potaknuti svoj metabolizam. Evo koje navike dr. Ambani preporučuje.

1. Povećajte unos proteina

Proteini imaju veći toplinski učinak u usporedbi s mastima i ugljikohidratima. To znači da tijelo koristi više energije, odnosno kalorija, za probavu i obradu proteina. Protein je neophodan za održavanje i izgradnju mišićne mase. Mišići sagorijevaju više kalorija u mirovanju u usporedbi s masnim tkivom.

“Konzumiranje više proteina može privremeno potaknuti vaš metabolizam. Termički učinak hrane (TEF) je povećanje brzine metabolizma nakon ingestije. Protein uzrokuje najveći porast TEF-a, ubrzavajući vaš metabolizam za 15-30 posto”, kaže liječnik za SheFinds.

2. Prakticirajte intervalni trening visokog intenziteta (HIIT)

Trening visokog intenziteta s intervalima (HIIT) moćna je metoda vježbanja koja izmjenjuje kratke, intenzivne vježbe i razdoblja odmora ili vježbe nižeg intenziteta. Intenzivni periodi u HIIT-u guraju naše tijelo do granica, što rezultira većim sagorijevanjem kalorija tijekom vježbanja u usporedbi s vježbanjem umjerenog intenziteta. HIIT značajno povećava stopu metabolizma nakon vježbanja zbog EPOC efekta.

To znači da naše tijelo nastavlja sagorijevati kalorije po višoj stopi satima nakon što smo završili s treningom.

“HIIT treninzi uključuju brze i intenzivne periode aktivnosti. Oni održavaju vaš metabolizam ubrzanim čak i nakon što završite s vježbanjem. Ovaj učinak nakon vježbanja poznat je kao prekomjerna potrošnja kisika nakon vježbanja (EPOC)”, pojasnio je dr. Ambani.

INTEGRIRANJEM ovih strategija u svoju rutinu, možemo učinkovito potaknuti svoj metabolizam, ispuniti ciljeve mršavljenja i povećati ukupnu razinu energije.

Slonovi možda imaju imena, pokazala je studija

ISTRAŽIVAČI koji proučavaju slonove tijekom godina primijetili su zanimljiv fenomen. Ponekad, kada se slon oglasi u grupi drugih slonova, odgovore mu svi, ali ponekad, kada im taj isti slon uputi sličan poziv, samo mu jedan odgovori. Je li moguće da slonovi jedni druge oslovljavaju ekvivalentom imena? Tu ideju podupire nova studija koja proučava divlje afričke savanske slonove u Keniji.

Istraživači su analizirali vokalizacije, uglavnom mrmljanja koje proizvode slonovi koristeći svoje glasnice, slično tome kako ljudi govore. Te vokalizacije proizvelo je više od 100 slonova u Nacionalnom parku Amboseli i Nacionalnom rezervatu Samburu.

Koristeći model strojnog učenja, istraživači su identificirali nešto što se činilo kao komponenta slična imenu u tim glasanjima koja identificira određenog slona kao predviđenog primatelja poruke. Istraživači su zatim pustili audiozapis za 17 slonova kako bi testirali kako će reagirati na poziv koji je očito upućen njima, kao i na poziv koji je očito upućen nekom drugom slonu.

Slonovi su, u prosjeku, snažnije reagirali na pozive koji su očito bili upućeni njima. Kada su čuli takav poziv, ponašali su se entuzijastičnije, hodali su prema izvoru zvuka i više se glasali nego kada su čuli onaj koji je očito bio namijenjen nekom drugom.

Nalazi studija ukazuju na to da slonovi “jedni druge oslovljavaju s nečim poput imena”, rekao je bihevioralni ekolog, Mickey Pardo, sa Sveučilišta Cornell, glavni autor studije objavljene u ponedjeljak u časopisu Nature Ecology & Evolution.

“Kako bi se obraćali jedni drugima na ovaj način, slonovi moraju naučiti povezivati određene zvukove s određenim pojedincima te zatim koristiti te zvukove kako bi privukli pažnju pojedinca u pitanju. To zahtijeva sofisticiranu sposobnost učenja i razumijevanja društvenih odnosa”, rekao je Pardo.

“Činjenica da se slonovi obraćaju jedni drugima kao pojedinci ističe važnost društvenih veza, te posebno održavanja različitih društvenih veza za te životinje”, dodao je.

Slonovi, najveće kopnene životinje na Zemlji, vrlo su inteligentni i poznati po izvrsnom pamćenju, sposobnostima rješavanja problema te sofisticiranoj komunikaciji. Prethodna istraživanja pokazala su da se prilikom međusobnog pozdravljanja ponašaju komplicirano, odnosno imaju vizualne, zvučne i taktilne geste.

Zašto bi slon dozivao drugog slona po “imenu”?

“Ne znamo točno, ali iz naše analize čini se da se to obično pojavljuje prilikom kontaktnih glasanja kada slon poziva drugu jedinku, često po imenu”, rekao je konzervacijski biolog sa Sveučilišta Colorado State i koautor studije, George Wittemyer. Dodao je da je korištenje imena također bilo uobičajeno u komunikaciji majke prema svojim mladuncima, često kako bi ih smirila ili provjerila kako su.

“Mislili smo da ćemo to pronaći i u ceremonijama pozdravljanja, ali bilo je rjeđe u tim vrstama vokalizacije”, dodao je Wittemyer.

Korištenje glasovnih oznaka specifičnih za nekog pojedinca – imena, rijetko je, ali ne i bez presedana u životinjskom carstvu. Pokazalo se da to rade i dupini i papige, ali kada to rade, samo oponašaju vokalizacije koje proizvodi druga životinja. Kod slonova, glasovne oznake nisu samo imitacija zvukova koje proizvodi primatelj.

“Umjesto toga, čini se da su njihova imena proizvoljna, poput ljudskih. Oslovljavanje pojedinaca s proizvoljnim imenima vjerojatno zahtijeva sposobnost za određeni stupanj apstraktnog načina razmišljanja”, rekao je Pardo. 

Wittemyer je dodao kako ovaj rad ističe koliko su slonovi inteligentni i zanimljivi te izrazio nadu da će to potaknuti veći interes za njihovu zaštitu i očuvanje.

Hoće li ljudi jednog dana moći “razgovarati” sa slonovima?

“To bi bilo fantastično, ali još smo daleko od toga jer još uvijek ne znamo sintaksu ili osnovne elemente pomoću kojih vokalizacije slonova kodiraju informacije. Taj dio moramo odgonetnuti kako bismo mogli dublje napredovati u razumijevanju slonova”, istaknuo je Wittemyer.

Što sve donosi iOS 18?

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

NA prvom danu ovogodišnje konferencije Worldwide Developers (WWDC) Apple je predstavio niz uzbudljivih nadogradnji za iPhone, iPad, Mac i druge uređaje. Glavne najave uključuju iOS 18, macOS Sequoia i novu tehnologiju umjetne inteligencije nazvanu Apple Intelligence. Također je najavljeno partnerstvo s OpenAI-jem kako bi se ChatGPT integrirao u Apple uređaje.

ChatGPT bit će integriran u Siri, Appleovu glasovnu asistenciju, što će korisnicima omogućiti dobivanje prijedloga i odgovora uz napredne AI modele. Ova funkcionalnost bit će dostupna za iOS 18, iPadOS 18 i macOS Sequoia kasnije ove godine, a koristit će tehnologiju GPT-4o.

Korisnici će ovu uslugu koristiti besplatno, i to bez otvaranja računa, dok će pretplatnici na ChatGPT moći povezati svoje račune i koristiti plaćene značajke direktno preko ovih platformi.

Evo sažetka svega što je Apple najavio na WWDC-ju.

Apple Intelligence

Jedna od najvažnijih novosti svakako je Apple Intelligence, sustav umjetne inteligencije koji će biti integriran u iOS 18, iPadOS 18 i macOS Sequoia. Ovaj sustav koristi generativne modele za pružanje korisnih i relevantnih informacija.

Korisnicima će biti dostupni novi alati za pisanje, koji omogućuju prepisivanje, lektoriranje i sažimanje teksta u aplikacijama kao što su Mail, Notes (Bilješke) i Pages (Stranice). Ove značajke pomoći će korisnicima da bolje oblikuju svoje tekstove bilo da se radi o e-mailu, bilješkama ili dokumentima.

Također, nova funkcija Genmoji omogućava korisnicima da kreiraju jedinstvene emojije i slike opisujući željeni izgled.

Nadalje, Siri dobiva naprednije mogućnosti zahvaljujući integraciji s velikim jezičnim modelima, poput ChatGPT-ja, što uključuje sažimanje članaka, izvlačenje osobnih podataka iz fotografija i slično.

Apple je naglasio važnost privatnosti pa će se većina radnji vezanih za Apple Intelligence izvršavati lokalno na uređaju. Za zahtjevnije operacije koje trebaju više procesorske snage koristit će se Appleovi centri za obradu podataka, ali s dodatnom zaštitom podataka pomoću tehnologije Private Cloud Compute.

iOS 18 i iPadOS 18

Nove verzije iOS-a i iPadOS-a donose značajne promjene i unaprjeđenja. Najvažnija novost je podrška za Rich Communication Service (RCS), sigurniji protokol za razmjenu poruka koji omogućava enkripciju od početka do kraja, poboljšano dijeljenje medija i podršku za grupne razgovore.

Korisnici će imati više kontrole nad početnim zaslonima jer će moći slobodno premještati ikone aplikacija i mijenjati njihove boje. Ova promjena donosi mogućnosti slične onima koje Android već neko vrijeme pruža svojim korisnicima. Također, aplikacija Photos (Fotografije) dobiva redizajn s fokusom na automatski kreirane grupe fotografija, koje će biti organizirane prema uspomenama i događajima.

Aplikacija Calculator (Kalkulator) na iPadu dobiva veliko ažuriranje, koje uključuje poboljšane konverzije jedinica i integraciju s aplikacijom Notes (Bilješke).

Privatnost je također unaprijeđena novim mogućnostima zaključavanja i skrivanja aplikacija kako bi se zaštitile osjetljive informacije.

macOS Sequoia

Novi operativni sustav za Mac, macOS Sequoia, donosi brojne nove funkcije. Jedna od njih omogućava prikazivanje i kontroliranje zaslona iPhonea na Macu, a korisnici mogu upotrebljavati tipkovnicu i trackpad za interakciju s iPhoneom te čak pokretati iOS aplikacije direktno na Macu.

Nova aplikacija Passwords (Lozinke) omogućuje spremanje i sinkronizaciju svih lozinki, sigurnosnih ključeva i verifikacijskih kodova između Apple uređaja i Windows računala preko iClouda za Windows.

Također, Safari sada nudi funkciju Highlights (Istaknuto), koja olakšava pronalaženje informacija na webu, uključujući upute, sažetke i brze poveznice za više informacija o osobama, glazbi, filmovima i TV emisijama.

Apple najavljuje i dolazak niza igara na Mac, uključujući dugo očekivani Assassin’s Creed Shadows, koji će, uz funkcije poput personaliziranog prostornog zvuka, pružiti još bolje iskustvo igranja.

Poboljšano je i organiziranje prozora na Macu – povlačenjem prozora prema rubu ekrana, Mac predlaže optimalnu poziciju za smještaj. Prozori se mogu jednostavno organizirati jedan do drugog ili u kutove za bolji pregled. Nove prečice na tipkovnici i izborniku omogućuju brže organiziranje.

watchOS 11

Nadogradnja za Apple Watch donosi dvije bitne novosti: aplikaciju Vitals i značajku Training Load. Training Load analizira zdravstvene i fitness podatke kako bi ocijenio napor tijekom vježbanja, dok aplikacija Vitals prikazuje ključne zdravstvene podatke i uspoređuje ih s uobičajenim vrijednostima pomažući korisnicima da bolje razumiju svoje zdravlje.

Također, stižu i nove funkcije za trudnice. Kad korisnici unesu podatke o trudnoći u aplikaciju Health na iPhoneu ili iPadu, aplikacija za praćenje ciklusa na Apple Watchu prikazuje gestacijsku dob i omogućuje bilježenje uobičajenih simptoma trudnoće.

Apple Watch sada nudi poboljšanu personalizaciju uz nadogradnje u watchOS 11. Smart Stack omogućava brz pristup važnim informacijama i preporučuje widgete prema vremenu, mjestu i dnevnim aktivnostima, kao što je automatsko prikazivanje upozorenja o nevremenu.

U watchOS 11 korištenje fotografija za pozadinu zaslona sata omogućeno je preko aplikacije Photos (Fotografije), koja će automatski predlagati najbolje opcije temeljene na estetici, izrazima lica i sl. Moguće je dodatno prilagoditi izgled sata odabirom veličine prikaza vremena, rasporeda elemenata, vrste slova i drugih opcija. Novost je dinamički mod koji prikazuje novu fotku svaki put kada se zaslon sata aktivira.

Apple Vision Pro uskoro stiže u druge zemlje

Appleov uređaj Vision Pro uskoro će biti dostupan u više zemalja, uključujući Australiju, Kanadu, Kinu, Francusku, Njemačku, Japan, Singapur i Veliku Britaniju. Najnovija verzija softvera visionOS 2 uključuje značajke poput prostornih fotografija, novih načina za upravljanjem uređajem i bolje podrške za visoke rezolucije i različite veličine zaslona.

Ažuriranja za AirPods Pro

Apple je najavio nove nadogradnje za AirPods Pro, koje obuhvaćaju poboljšanu izolaciju glasa, što omogućava bolje prepoznavanje glasa korisnika u bučnim okruženjima. Također, novi način interakcije sa Siri omogućava korisnicima da kimanjem glavom prihvate poziv ili da ga odmahivanjem glavom odbiju, bez upotrebe glasovnih naredbi.

ICC T20 World Cup 2024: Australia Face Namibia With an Eye on Super Eight; Sri Lanka in Must-Win Situation Against Nepal

Living up to the favourites tag with two consecutive wins, a confident Australia will aim to secure a Super Eight berth when they face lower-ranked Namibia in their Group B T20 World Cup clash here on Wednesday. Australia fired in unison to become the first team in this edition of the tournament to score 200-plus runs in a one-sided 36-run win over arch-rivals England in their last group league match. ICC T20 World Cup 2024: Scenarios That Need To Play Out for Every Team for Super 8 Qualification.

It was their second win from as many matches, having started off with a 39-run triumph over Oman. Beating Nambia will be enough for them to make the cut before they take on Scotland in their concluding Group B league fixture.

Scotland lead the table with five points and along with Australia, are firmly ahead in the race to make the Super Eight at the expense of defending champions England who have one point from two matches. Their opening game against Scotland was a washout.

Australia defeated Namibia by seven wickets after restricting their opponents to 119/9 in their only T20 meeting, albeit in a warm-up game two weeks back.

Playing his last World Cup for Australia, David Warner has been in splendid form with one half century and it was his 16-ball 39 that set the tone for their 201/7 against England.

Warner incidentally scored a fifty in the warm-up against Namibia as well. He has 97 runs in the tournament at a fine strike rate of 141.79. Warner’s opening partner Travis Head has also been at his explosive best and the duo will look to give the team a fiery start.

Namibia will expect their veteran all-rounder David Wiese to step up after he starred in their Super-Over win against Oman. The globe-trotting all-rounder has the experience of facing Australia four times in T20Is during his stint with South Africa. Left-arm spinner Bernard Scholtz, who has been tidy conceding just one four and one six in his eight overs, will also look to make an impact.

Teams 

Australia: Mitchell Marsh (c), Ashton Agar, Pat Cummins, Tim David, Nathan Ellis, Cameron Green, Josh Hazlewood, Travis Head, Josh Inglis, Glenn Maxwell, Mitchell Starc, Marcus Stoinis, Matthew Wade, David Warner and Adam Zampa.

Namibia: Gerhard Erasmus (c), Zane Green, Michael Van Lingen, Dylan Leicher, Ruben Trumpelmann, Jack Brassell, Ben Shikongo, Tangeni Lungameni, Niko Davin, JJ Smit, Jan Frylinck, JP Kotze, David Wiese, Bernard Scholtz, Malan Kruger and PD Blignaut.

Match starts: 6am IST.

SL in must win clash vs Nepal

Former champion Sri Lanka’s campaign has gone terribly haywire after defeats to South Africa and they are now faced with a do-or-die clash against Nepal in a group D fixture in Lauderhill, Florida. Nepal, on the other hand, lost to the Netherlands by six wickets in their only match so far. Australia’s Matthew Wade Reprimanded After Argument With Umpire Nitin Menon During AUS vs ENG T20 World Cup 2024 Match, Receives Demerit Point.

South Africa have already qualified to Super Eight following their nervy win over Bangladesh. A win for the Wanindu Hasaranga-led side will further heat up the race for the second spot with Bangladesh, Netherlands, and Nepal also in the reckoning. For that to happen, the onus will be on the batters. A loss, on the other hand, would mean curtains for Sri Lanka.

Teams

Nepal: Rohit Paudel (c), Aasif Sheikh, Anil Kumar Sah, Kushal Bhurtel, Kushal Malla, Dipendra Singh Airee, Lalit Rajbanshi, Karan KC, Gulshan Jha, Sompal Kami, Pratis GC, Sundeep Jora, Abinash Bohara, Sagar Dhakal and Kamal Singh Airee

Sri Lanka: Wanindu Hasaranga (c), Charith Asalanka, Kusal Mendis, Pathum Nissanka, Kamindu Mendis, Sadeera Samarawickrama, Angelo Mathews, Dasun Shanaka, Dhananjaya De Silva, Maheesh Theekshana, Dunith Wellalage, Dushmantha Chameera, Nuwan Thushara, Matheesha Pathirana and Dilshan Madushanka.

Match starts: 5am IST.

Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa picked up in murder case

BENGALURU: Popular Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa has been picked up by the Bengaluru city police from his farmhouse in Mysuru, in connection with the murder case of a person from Chitradurga.

The victim Renukaswamy’s body was found in a storm water drain in Kamakshipalya on Sunday. The incident had come to light after passersby had seen street dogs dragging a body from the drain and alerted the police.

When the police were probing the details of the unidentified man’s body, three persons from Girinagar are alleged to have surrendered before the police on Monday claiming responsibility behind the murder of the person. The trio claimed that the murder was over a financial dispute. Cross questioning by the police resulted in the exact reasons behind the murder.

The accused allegedly committed the murder at the behest of actor Darshan. The victim is alleged to have sent some vulgar messages to actress Pavithra Gowda on her social media accounts. Pavithra Gowda is said to be close friend of Darshan.

So far, 10 people have been detained in connection with a case. After Darshan came to know about the messages, he telephoned to the president of his fans association in Chitradurga. The victim was allegedly brought from Chitradurga to the city and was murdered inside a shed on Saturday before dumping the body in the drain.

The victim’s parents have come to Kamakshipalya police station. The case was registered by the Kamakshipalya police on Sunday.

T is for TV: The tale of the idiot box

If there’s one object that has revolutionised the Indian middle-class living room, it’s the television — also known as the “idiot box”. More than just an appliance, the TV became a window to the world for countless Indian households, providing entertainment, information and a unique shared experience.

Contrary to the belief that smartphones have taken over, television still holds a significant place in the family living room. It remains the go-to medium for shared experiences, whether it’s watching a cricket match, a family drama, or the evening news. Even in the age of personal screens, the television brings people together, offering a communal space for collective viewing and discussion.

Before the rise of cinema halls and multiplexes, television was the primary source of entertainment for entire neighbourhoods. Evening TV shows and weekend movies would draw families together, sometimes even neighbours, creating a communal viewing experience that transcended the walls of individual homes. Iconic shows like “Ramayan” and “Mahabharat” brought streets to a standstill as people gathered around TVs to watch the latest episode.

However, owning a television set in the past came with its own set of challenges. Adjusting the antenna to get a clear picture was a routine affair, often requiring a delicate balance between patience and ingenuity. It wasn’t uncommon to see someone perched precariously on a chair, twisting and turning the antenna while someone else shouted directions from the living room. And if all else failed, a good thump on the side of the TV set was the go-to solution to get it working again.

Television sets have come a long way since those early days. From bulky, boxy black-and-white sets to sleek, ultra-thin LED screens, the transformation has been remarkable. Today’s televisions offer high-definition picture quality, smart connectivity and a plethora of channels catering to every conceivable interest. Despite these advancements, the essence of television remains unchanged — it continues to be a central feature of family life, providing a shared space for relaxation, information and entertainment.

Not at all idiotic

One must not forget that this so-called ‘idiot box’ has proven to be anything but idiotic. The TV brings with it an incredible amount of power. Marshall McLuhan, a prominent Canadian scholar of mass media, famously said, “Television brought the brutality of war into the comfort of the living room. Vietnam was lost in the living rooms of America — not on the battlefields of Vietnam.” This quote underscores the profound impact television has had on society, shaping public opinion and bringing global events into the intimate spaces of our homes.

In the India context, the Asian Games of 1982 brought with it the colour television, which in turn brought the whole nation together in rooting for the country. Further, the assassination of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and the subsequent coverage brought the nation together in a shared moment of grief, reflection and turmoil.

Yes, you could argue that the death of India’s first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru brought about a similar reaction in the masses of India. However, that announcement was made through the radio — TV’s elder cousin. Radio, even though still quite pervasive in rural India, will never be able to match the impact that vivid visual images do.

Now we live in an era where individual screens dominate, and yet television still stands as a testament to the power of collective experiences. So, the next time you find yourself gathered around the TV with your family, remember that you’re part of a long tradition — one that has seen countless moments of joy, sorrow and everything in between, all framed by the comforting glow of the television screen.

Television, the humble “idiot box,” remains a beloved and integral part of Indian middle-class life. As we continue to navigate an increasingly digital world, the television stands as a reminder of the joy and connection found in communal viewing.

Pet visokoproteinskih namirnica koje treba jesti za doručak, prema nutricionisticama

MNOGE tradicionalne opcije za doručak, poput tosta, žitarica i peciva, sadrže puno ugljikohidrata i malo proteina. Od jedenja ovih namirnica dobijemo nalet energije, ali zbog brze potrošnje ugljikohidrata, osjećaj sitosti ne traje dugo. Zato bi u prehranu, posebice doručak, trebalo dodati namirnice bogate proteinima.

Postoji nekoliko prednosti dodavanja proteina za doručak, uključujući povećanu sitost i zadovoljstvo, kao i pozitivan utjecaj na cjelokupno zdravlje. Nutricionistica Patricia Kolesa ističe da “proteini čine većinu naših stanica, organa i mišića. Količina proteina koju skladištimo stalno se mijenja, stoga je najbolje rasporediti unos proteina tijekom dana kako biste podmirili potrebe tijela.”

Kao prednosti konzumiranja proteina, nutricionistica je izdvojila kontroliranje šećera u krvi, poboljšanje zdravlja srca, pružanje dugotrajne energije te izgradnju i obnovu mišića. U nastavku izdvajamo namirnice koje su nutricionisti proglasili najboljim visokoproteinskim opcijama za doručak. 

Grčki jogurt

Nutricionistica Sheri Gaw objašnjava da je “uključivanje porcije grčkog jogurta uz doručak siguran način za započinjanje dana s velikom dozom proteina koji zasićuju”. Dodaje i da unosimo probiotike u tijelo jedenjem grčkog jogurta, koji su važni za zdravlje probavnog sustava. 

“Probiotici podupiru zdravu crijevnu mikrobiotu, potencijalno jačajući imunitet, smanjujući sistemsku upalu i rizik od kroničnih bolesti”, tvrdi Gaw, prenosi Eating Well.

Zrnati sir

Zrnati sir stekao je popularnost na društvenim mrežama, zahvaljujući visokom udjelu proteina. Kako prenosi Eating Well, jedna šalica zrnatog sira sadrži oko 25 grama proteina. Sa zrnatim sirom kao odličnom visokoproteinskom namirnicom slaže se i Kolesa. 

“Svježi sir je odličan izbor jer je prepun drugih bitnih vitamina i minerala, poput kalija, kalcija i vitamina B12. Dodajte ga u kajganu za još ukusniji okus, namažite na tost od cjelovitog zrna ili ga pojedite u kombinaciji s nekim voćem”, ističe Kolesa. 

Jaja

Jaja su najpopularniji izvor proteina i sadrže devet esencijalnih aminokiselina koje tijelo ne može samo proizvesti. Nutricionistica Lilian Nwora ističe da su “jaja svestrana i relativno isplativ način za dodavanje više proteina u doručak”. Ovu namirnicu možete pripremiti na različite načine i uživati u ukusnim obrocima. 

Tofu

Tofu možda nije prva namirnica koja će većini pasti na pamet kada razmišljaju o doručku, ali ipak je svestrana namirnica koja se lako može uklopiti u bilo koji recept. Oko pola šalice tofua, dakle nekih 126 grama, sadrži 22 grama proteina i manje od dva grama zasićenih masti, prenosi Eating Well. 

“Tofu je nemasna, visokoproteinska opcija za početak dana kao alternativa tradicionalnim jajima i mliječnim proizvodima”, objašnjava nutricionistica Eliza Whitaker. Osim proteina, jedenjem tofua u tijelo se unose i nezasićene masti koje podržavaju zdravlje srca te biljni probiotici za zdravlje crijeva. 

Losos

Losos predstavlja izvrstan izvor proteina te je bogat omega-3 masnim kiselinama, vitaminom D i drugim hranjivim tvarima koje podržavaju cjelokupno zdravlje. Omega-3 mogu poboljšati zdravlje srca smanjujući upalu, snižavajući kolesterol i čineći krvne žile elastičnijima, prenosi Eating Well.

Jesu li vrane stvarno tako opasne kako se priča? Razgovarali smo s profesorom s VEF-a

NAPADI vrana su već dugo goruća tema za većinu Zagrepčana. Kojom god se ulicom prošetali, sigurno ćete naletjeti na vranu ili cijelo jato koje leti iznad vas. Mnogima ovaj prizor nije nimalo ugodan, dapače, zgražaju se i boje da bi ih ptice mogle napasti.

Poznate su nam priče koje kažu da su vrane iznimno inteligentne ptice s dobrim pamćenjem. Nerijetko ćete iz nečijih usta čuti priču kako su uvjereni da one pamte lica onih ljudi koji su im učinili nešto nažao. Neki su uvjereni da napadnuta vrana svojem jatu prenosi informacije o napadaču kako bi ga sljedeći put kada prođe zajedno napale i osvetile se.

> Vrane napadaju Zagrepčane. “Deset ih je išlo na mene, bilo je strašno”

Kako bismo jednom zauvijek riješili ovaj misterij, razgovarali smo s profesorom dr. sc. Željkom Gottsteinom s Veterinarskog fakulteta u Zagrebu, koji nam je pobliže objasnio razloge zbog kojih vrane nekada napadaju ljude.

Vrane zapravo štite svoje mladunce

Dr. Gottsteina smo upitali napadaju li vrane ikada bez posebnog povoda i je li strah prolaznika opravdan. Profesor nam je odgovorio da vrane zapravo napadaju ljude kako bi zaštitile svoje mlade: “Proljeće je vrijeme kada mladi, nakon gniježđenja, izlaze iz gnijezda i danima borave na tlu ili u grmlju gdje ih roditelji hrane i brinu o njima.”

Ljudi često prolaze parkom u pratnji svojih ljubimaca, a psi su poznati po tome da svojim njuškama žele istražiti svaki novi nepoznati miris. Dakle, kada vaš pas nanjuši mladunče koje se sakrilo negdje u grmlju, jednostavno neće odoljeti tome da istraži o čemu se radi.

Ovo je trenutak u kojemu vrane osjećaju opasnost za svoje mladunce i odlučuju na bilo koji način odvratiti vas i vašeg ljubimca od približavanja nejakom mladuncu. Isprva, vrana će se uvijek pokušati samo zaletjeti kako biste se vi i vaš pas odmaknuli. U slučaju da zalijetanje ne upali, pokušat će vas udarcima kljunom i krilima potaknuti na bijeg.

Pokušajte izbjegavati mjesta na kojima se vrane gnijezde

“Ako se neka osoba često nađe u kontaktu s istim jatom vrana jer šeće s djecom ili psom po istoj ruti, budući da su vrane vrlo inteligentne, zapamte ga i zapravo “pušu na hladno” te ga unaprijed odvraćaju od prolaska kraj mladunaca”, komentira profesor Gottstein. Njegova je preporuka da u ovo doba godine izbjegavate mjesta na kojima se gnijezde kako biste izbjegli bilo kakvu reakciju odraslih vrana.

Dakle, kao i većina životinja, vrane vas ne napadaju iz čistog mira niti bez razloga, već se samo radi o brižnim roditeljima koje je strah da netko ne ozlijedi njihove mladunce. Bilo bi najpametnije da u ovo vrijeme promijenite rutu šetnje dok mlade vrane ne narastu. Svojem uobičajenom putu možete se vratiti kada mladunaca više ne bude, pa će i vrane biti mnogo mirnije.

Australia’s Matthew Wade Reprimanded After Argument With Umpire Nitin Menon During AUS vs ENG T20 World Cup 2024 Match, Receives Demerit Point

Bridgetown [Barbados], June 10 (ANI): Australia wicket-keeper batter Matthew Wade has been handed an official reprimand for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct for “showing dissent at an Umpire’s decision” during a clash against England at the Kensington Oval in the ongoing ICC World Cup 2024. Wade has been handed an ‘official reprimand’ and one demerit point. As per the official statement by the International Cricket Council (ICC), the incident took place during Australia’s Group B match of the T20 World Cup against England in Barbados in which the Aussies won the encounter by 36 runs. Umpire Nitin Menon ‘Shoos Away’ Matthew Wade As They Engage in On-Field Argument During AUS vs ENG ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Match (Watch Video).

The incident occurred during Australia’s innings in the 18th over. Wade played a delivery from leg-spinner Adil Rashid back to the bowler but expected it to be called a ‘dead ball’ by the umpire. When it wasn’t, Wade then argued with the umpires over the decision. The wicket-keeper batter was found guilty of breaching Article 2.8 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to “showing dissent at an Umpire’s decision during an International Match.” In addition to this, one demerit point has been added to Wade’s disciplinary record, for whom it was the first offence in a 24-month period. ICC T20 World Cup 2024: Jos Buttler, Adam Zampa Give Contrasting Takes On Matthew Wade’s Non-Dead Ball Incident.

Wade confessed the offence and accepted the sanction proposed by Andy Pycroft of the Emirates ICC Elite Panel of Match Referees, so there was no need for a formal hearing. “On-field umpires Nitin Menon and Joel Wilson, third umpire Asif Yaqoob and fourth umpire Jayaraman Madangopal levelled the charge,” ICC said in an official statement. Level 1 breaches carry a minimum penalty of an official reprimand, a maximum penalty of 50 per cent of a player’s match fee, and one or two demerit points.(ANI)

Actor Noor Malabika Das Found Dead in Mumbai Flat, Suspected Suicide

Actor Noor Malabika Das (37) was found dead in her flat at Lokhandwala in the Oshiwara area of Andheri on Monday, reports said.

Noor, who was also a former air hostess and hailed from Assam, was the co-star of Kajol in the 2023 legal drama The Trial.

She is suspected to have died by suicide.

The police found Noor’s decomposed body hanging from a ceiling fan and have initially ruled the death as a suicide.

Noor, reports quoting the police said, was found after her neighbors reported a foul smell coming from her apartment. The concerned neighbors soon informed the Oshiwara Police, who then forced their way into the flat.

Noor had made her place in the world of Hindi web series. She had leading roles in several web series, including “Siskiyaan,” “Walkaman Upaya,” and “Charamsukh.” In “The Trial,” she played a supporting role besides actor Kajol.

Discussing suicides can be triggering for some. However, suicides are preventable. In case you feel distressed by the content or know someone in distress, call Sneha Foundation – 04424640050 (available 24×7).

Goafest 2024: Rise of joyful surrealism, adaptability and de-influencing

Is the ad and media community adapting to disruptive changes fast enough? The onslaught of technology, new consumer behaviours, changing equations with clients who increasingly treat them more like vendors than old partners, the growing influence of influencers, the need for inclusivity — many of these have posed challenges to the industry

  • Also read: T is for TV: The tale of the idiot box

Well, Goafest 2024, with the theme of adaptability, did try to address some of these issues. The festival, that for the previous 16 editions had been held in sunny Goa, moved to Mumbai, when it was impossible to hold it in the beach town due to elections. Yes, people laughed at the thought of a festival named Goafest being held elsewhere, but many of the oldtimers felt the spirit of the festival was still captured in Mumbai — with the scenic Powai lake substituting the sand and sea, and mesmerising music from Sufi ki Sultana Harshdeep Kaur and Sukhwinder who got the attendees singing Jai Ho.

Perhaps, because it was hosted in the city of dreams and there was too much Bollywood (Zeenat Aman, Manoj Bajpayee, Vikrant Massey, Neha Dhupia, Medha Shankar et al were in attendance). Perhaps, there could have been more focus on the perils of Outdoors advertising, than just a panel discussion on the hoardings tragedy. Perhaps, cricketer Sourav Ganguly, who delivered a superb session on taking on life’s challenges, could also have been asked to give his take on the Fortune ad episode. And perhaps, the Abby Awards need to be streamlined — running into many categories, it is irritating to see the same campaign getting awarded multiple times.

But these quibbles apart, overall there was lots to takeaway.

How to use trends

This edition saw a lot of focus on learning. To get those creative juices flowing, the festival organisers tied up with London-based D&AD — which gives away the acclaimed Pencil awards — to curate masterclasses. In his session, Paul Drake, COO and Foundation Director, D&AD, told the attendees how to use trends in their advertising. For instance, one of the big trends for 2023, Drake says, was “Joyful Surrealism”. Post-pandemic, people have been bogged down with grim news and reality. “We saw brands trying to move things around and give people some joy. We are seeing it as a way of standing out from the crowd and giving back something to customers,” says Drake.

An example he cites is chips brand Doritos’ work on noise cancelling. The sound of someone crunching on crisps can be annoying. So they created Doritos Silent, a crunch cancellation software.

As an industry, says Drake, very few have been brave enough to step into humour. But joyful activations such as these can really work. He also cited the work of water brand Liquid Death with its punchy lines like “Murder Your Thirst.”

More than pointing out what the trends are, Drake’s session focussed on how to use these trends. Often, brands and advertisers don’t instantly latch on to a trend as they are unsure if it is a crest of a wave or is it going to last. But brands should not be afraid, stresses Drake. Duolingo does this very well in its social media, he says — it sees a fad and it is on it. “We tell brands and advertising folk to be curious and not to be wrapped in a bubble. Keep your eyes and ears open always.”

Drake’s workshop tied in very well with former HUL India chief Sanjiv Mehta’s keynote where-in he highlighted the leadership attribute of “Sensemaking” . Mehta explained this as piecing together disparate information to foresee and navigate new trends and complexity.

De-influencing Trend

An interesting session was on influencers and the trust factor. During the conversation, the panelists — Amit Doshi, Chief Marketing Officer at Britannia; Falguni Vasavada, Professor at MICA and Digital Creator; Paras Sharma, Director of Global Partnerships at Meta and Manisha Kapoor, CEO and Secretary General of ASCI brought up the trend of de-influencers. How are brands looking at de-influencers?

Later, speaking to brandline, Vasavada answered the question of whether de-influencers like Revant Himatsingka (FoodPharmer) can pose a threat to brands. “No brand will solely depend on influencers to make a mark. Authenticity and brand purpose has to shine through all the channels,” she said. However, she felt that de-influencing can be taken positively by brands. There is no harm in learning and unlearning. If a brand is being called out for excessive sugars, it needs to work on it. “Let us involve the people and genuinely work on it,” said Vasavada.

Liječnici: Ako želite bolje zdravlje crijeva, izbjegavajte ovu hranu

PRAVILNA prehrana vrlo je važna za zdravlje crijeva, metabolizam i učinkovito upravljanje težinom. Dobro uravnotežena prehrana, bogata cjelovitim namirnicama poput voća, povrća, nemasnih proteina i cjelovitih žitarica, može poboljšati crijevnu floru, pozitivno utjecati na metabolizam i pomoći u regulaciji težine.

Suprotno tome, loš izbor prehrane može dovesti do neravnoteže u crijevnim bakterijama, usporiti metabolizam i pridonijeti debljanju, što može narušiti opće zdravlje i dobrobit. Stoga su liječnik, dr. Erik Natkin, te nutricionist i liječnik, dr. Rimas Geiga, izdvojili tri takve namirnice koje bismo trebali izbjegavati ako želimo poboljšati cjelokupno zdravlje.

1. Granola pločice

Granola pločice dio su mnogih dijeta. Međutim, mogu negativno utjecati na zdravlje crijeva. “Mnoge granola pločice prepune su šećerom i umjetnim sastojcima”, kaže dr. Natkin za SheFinds.

Iako mogu dati brzi poticaj za energiju, visok sadržaj šećera može povećati razinu inzulina i pridonijeti debljanju. Osim toga, umjetni dodaci mogu poremetiti crijevnu floru, što dovodi do probavnih problema, tvrde liječnici.

2. Jogurti s okusom

“Jogurti s okusom obično su krcati dodanim šećerima. Ti šećeri podižu razinu inzulina i ometaju dobre crijevne bakterije”, upozorava dr. Geiga. Za zdraviju opciju, stručnjaci preporučuju obični grčki jogurt i dodatak svježeg voća za prirodnu slatkoću.

3. Proteinske pločice

Dok se proteinske pločice reklamiraju kao zdrave, mnoge sadrže umjetne sastojke i puno šećera. “Mogu uzrokovati probavne smetnje i negativno utjecati na zdravlje crijeva”, navodi dr. Natkin. Odabir cjelovitih izvora nemasnih proteina često je zdravija opcija.

Iako se neke od ovih opcija reklamiraju kao zdrave, mogu imati skrivene nedostatke koji utječu na metabolizam i zdravlje crijeva. Stoga je važno provjeravati etikete i dati prednost cjelovitoj, minimalno prerađenoj hrani za optimalno zdravlje, zaključuju dr. Natkin i dr. Geiga.

Stanovnike Sesveta uznemirila zmija: “Brinulo nas je hoće li se uvući u stanove”

JEDNA bjelica uznemirila je mirno nedjeljno poslijepodne u Sesvetama. Odmarala se ispod živice i nije marila za prolaznike, što je neke uplašilo, pa su u pomoć pozvali djelatnike Skloništa za nezbrinute životinje Grada Zagreba.

Naime, osim što im nije bilo ugodno u blizini zmije, stanovnici obližnjih zgrada brinuli su se hoće li se zmija uvući u stanove u prizemlju.

Djelatnici Skloništa premjestili su zmiju u prirodu, a snimke njezina hvatanja i puštanja objavili su na Facebooku.

Behind the smile

Actor Mohan, who reached inimitable heights in the 80s, recently made a comeback with the film Haraa. While the film garnered much attention for bringing back the Silver Jubilee Star to Tamil cinema, it was also a significant milestone for the film’s director, Vijay Sri G, as the chance to direct a star like Mohan comes after just helming two films: Dha Dha 87 and Powder.

Haraa, which was released on June 7, is a crime thriller that reiterates the importance of knowing our laws. Vijay says he aimed to create a film that balanced family drama with the elements of a crime thriller. “The film is essentially a family drama revolving around a father and his daughter. However, Haraa is also filled with the elements of the action and thriller genres,” he explains.

The director further shares that he chose Mohan as his lead for Haraa because he wanted to visualise him in a different avatar. “Whenever I choose a lead character for my film, I change their look entirely based on the story. Fans of Mohan sir mostly remember him as a romantic hero. I felt it would be refreshing to change his identity from a romance film lead to an action film lead with Haraa,” he explains, adding that he showed Mohan’s acting range in the film. “We have mainly seen him smile all these years, but he has a way more serious action persona within him, which I wanted to bring out in Haraa.”

Vijay Sri G is first a fan, and then a director when it comes to Mohan. He shares his observations of Mohan as a versatile performer, “Mohan sir is famous for his songs, and people remember him for how well he would take in and perform the songs. However, people failed to notice his versatility in different roles,” he says, further taking examples from various films. “In Mouna Ragam, he hardly has any dialogue.

SEBI to tweak selection criteria for F&O stocks

SEBI plans to change the selection criteria for entry and exit of stocks in the derivatives market to reflect current market conditions.

About two dozen of the 182 companies that are part of the F&O segment could see an exit if the new rules are implemented, according to Nuvama Alternative & Quantitative Research. These include Abbott India, Bata, Berger Paints, Gujarat Gas, Ipca Labs, Torrent Pharma and United Breweries. 

Derivatives contracts can be traded only if the underlying stocks meet certain criteria. Such criteria were last reviewed in May 2018. Since then, index values of Sensex and Nifty have risen 110 per cent whereas the daily average turnover in the cash market has surged 253 per cent.

Higher risks

The regulator’s June 8 consultation paper flagged higher risks of market manipulation and volatility without sufficient depth in the underlying cash market and appropriate position limits around leveraged derivatives.

“There is a need to ensure that only high-quality stocks in terms of size, liquidity, and market depth are available in the derivatives segment. Stocks that have low derivative turnover, low open interest, and narrower participation in the derivatives segment are vulnerable to manipulation and expose investors to heightened risk,” it said.

One of the eligibility criteria for inclusion and exclusion is the stock’s Median Quarter-Sigma Order Size over the last six months, on a rolling basis. This figure may be raised 3-4 times from a minimum of ₹25 lakh at present.

The minimum market wide position limit in the stock on a rolling basis may be upped to ₹1,250-1,750 crore (from ₹500 crore now). The stock’s minimum rolling average daily delivery value in the cash market in the previous six months could be ₹30-40 crore (from ₹10 crore).

3-month period

If a stock fails to meet these criteria for three months consecutively, it will exit the F&O segment and no new contract will be issued on the stock.

The regulator proposes to extend its Product Success Framework (PSF), applicable to index derivatives, to stock derivatives as well. The said framework mandates that derivatives on an index should have sufficient turnover, open interest, and widespread participation. No fresh contracts will be issued on any index failing to meet any of these criteria. PSF will apply to stocks that completed six months in the stock derivatives segment.

About 75 companies such as Zomato, Jio Financial, Tata Elxsi, Delhivery, Adani Green, Adani Total Gas, Adani Transmission, JSW Energy, Angel One, NBCC, SJVN, Oil India and BSE could potentially be included.

Transcom thinks its CX centres are gold mines for brands

At any given point if you log into social media platforms, you will see people ranting about the customer service of some brand or the other.

It is the biggest pain point for organisations and one that they spend a lot on. Consider this: the global customer experience business process outsourcing (BPO) market size was an estimated $92.4 billion in 2023.

  • Also read: We can maximise the opportunity with our different brands, says Tanishq CEO Ajoy Chawla

Swedish firm Transcom — which provides digitally enhanced customer experience (CX) services to some of the world’s fastest scaling brands — recently entered India through an acquisition. Aptly enough, it was on Valentine’s Day this year that it sealed the deal to buy VCosmos, a young CX start-up based in Gurgaon and Jaipur, set up by Amandeep Singh Arora, a veteran in BPO services.

Both Travis Coates, COO of Transcom — which was born out of Sweden’s disruptive telco Tele2 in 1995 — and Arora, who is now leading the charge for Transcom India, are gungho about the CX opportunity out of India. Transcom, which closed 2023 with revenues of €738 million believes in smart shoring, with a large part of its talent based in the Philippines. But Coates feels India’s talent and skill pool over time will make it another important hub for them.

Ask Arora, if India has climbed the value chain from plain vanilla customer service to more value-added customer experience which can even help close the sales funnel and he says: “From our perspective, it’s still very much a BPO industry. But we’re helping brands and clients solve different friction points within their customer journey and helping them to get through not only the simple transactions, but also more difficult transactions and help them iterate their products and experiences.”

He adds, “It’s much more CX, and more social because the transactions are on digital. There’s always going to be voice and text and chat. But the channels are also becoming more and more omni-channel.”

When asked about the advent of Gen AI and its potential to automate experiences, Coates says, “Gen AI is just one more channel, one more way that we can help clients solve customer challenges. Gen-AI is helping to solve those simpler transactions in a more contextual way than perhaps it was able to be done in the past. But that only provides more opportunity for us to leverage that data and leverage the more complex work within the actual contact centre.”

Data Rich

The CX centres we operate are gold mines for brands, says Coates. Elaborating on this, he says that solving many friction points as they do, they are sitting on such rich data that can now solve issues proactively instead of reactively. They can predict where a typical customer will face an issue, anticipate it and avert it.

To illustrate, Arora gives an example of a cell phone purchase and the subsequent calls that a call centre receives. “Pretty much the first thing the buyer calls up the helpline is to find out how to set up their email on the device. Since I have got hundreds of such calls, I can proactively put a paper in the box with instructions on how to do that. So, I solved that problem before it even became a problem.”

Another example he says where they can be proactive is when someone buys a product and it is out for delivery, and the customer is viewing the tracking status. At this point the company gets to know that there was a strike in the area or there’s rain and the product will not be delivered at the time shown. “Can we build that plug-in where the agent knows that the product will not be delivered today. Can we make that proactive call to the customer and tell them, ‘hey, sorry, because of the outage in your area or because of the strike in your area, the product will not be delivered today’. Or you get an SMS or email saying your packet is delayed today. It is bound to delight the customer.

“We feel we are experts on that,” says Coates. For a brand, the duo say, the value that CX centres like theirs bring to the table from a consulting standpoint, from a data understanding standpoint, is how you can solve problems in a larger way.

Compared to the Philippines, Arora says that India is a market which has the capability to provide more service versus just providing service only on the English side. “Early on we were able to support a client when they were moving their business into several European markets. We could provide support out of India, because 2,00,000 people do a German certification, about 2,00,000 people do a French certification from India each year. So, this additional language helped us win a client. Today Transcom handles German, French, Spanish, Italian, Turkish, Polish, Dutch and of course English.”

AKO ŽELITE povećati unos hrane koja je dobra za vaš mozak, voće je odličan početak. Gotovo ne zahtijeva pripremu i zadovoljava želju za nečim slatkim, čineći vas manje sklonima posezanju za nečim što je puno dodanog šećera, što definitivno nije dobro za zdravlje mozga.

Neurokirurginja, dr. Betsy Grunch, tvrdi da je jedan od glavnih razloga taj što je voće bogato antioksidansima. “Voće bogato antioksidansima može biti dobro za mozak. Jedenje ovog voća smanjuje slobodne radikale i oksidativni stres na neuronskom tkivu, što može poboljšati kognitivne funkcije.”

S njom se složio i neurolog dr. Mill Etienne koji ističe da “voće može spriječiti oštećenje moždanih stanica i izvrstan je izvor antioksidansa koji pomažu u sprječavanju degenerativnih promjena u mozgu”.

Osim antioksidansa, u voću se nalaze vitamini, ugljikohidrati i druge hranjive tvari koje ne utječu samo na zdravlje mozga, već na cjelokupno zdravlje. Ovi znanstvenici su za Parade izdvojili najbolje vrste voća koje možete jesti za zdravlje mozga. 

Koje voće jesti za zdravlje mozga?

Kao omiljene vrste voća koje voli jesti za zdravlje mozga, dr. Etienne jede borovnice i grožđe. “Obje su izvrsni izvori antioksidansa koji štite od degenerativnih promjena u mozgu.” Poput dr. Etiennea, dr. Grunch također redovito uživa u borovnicama, a oboje dijele još jedno omiljeno voće – banane.

“Jedem barem jednu bananu dnevno”, ističe neurokirurginja i dodaje: “Osim što su dobre za mozak, banane su također izvrsna hrana za zdravlje crijeva”, prenosi Parade.

Oba su se liječnika složila da je jedenje citrusnog voća također korisno za zdravlje mozga. Neurolog ističe da su naranče i mandarine bogate vitaminom C, koji podržava pamćenje i kogniciju. Na njihovu se popisu nalazi i avokado, koji je prema njima izuzetno koristan za zdravlje mozga.

“Avokado sadrži zdrave masti koje su važne za funkciju i razvoj mozga. Mogu zaštititi astrocite, potporne stanice u našem mozgu”, tvrdi dr. Grunch.

Što liječnici preporučuju?

Bez obzira koje voće odaberete za jelo, dr. Etienne preporučuje konzumaciju cijelog voća umjesto soka. Tako ne propuštate vlakna, koja su korisna za crijeva i mozak.

“Sok ima koncentriraniji šećer i često ima dodan šećer i kalorije, što sok čini manje zdravim od stvarnog voća od kojeg je napravljen. Osim toga, zbog koncentrata možete imati puno veće razine šećera u krvi i ukupni unos kalorija”, objašnjava on.

Njegova preporuka je svaki dan jesti voće za zdravlje mozga, ali i općenito zdravlje. Posebno preporučuje svakodnevnu konzumaciju onima s postojećim zdravstvenim problemima poput Parkinsonove bolesti, demencije, blagog kognitivnog poremećaja ili traumatske ozljede mozga, prenosi Parade.

Svi znamo da psi ne smiju jesti čokoladu. No, što im se od toga može dogoditi?

SVI ZNAMO da svojim najboljim prijateljima ne bismo smjeli dati da jedu čokoladu. Ipak, ponekada iz čiste nepažnje, moguće je da vaš pas nekako dođe do kockice čokolade i proguta je. Kada se to dogodi vrlo je jednostavno zapasti u stanje panike i ne znati što učiniti. Pričekati i vidjeti hoće li pas sam povratiti čokoladu? Natjerati psa da povraća? Nazvati veterinara i pitati što da učinite? Brzinom svjetlosti sjesti u automobil i odvesti psa u najbližu veterinarsku stanicu?

Savjetovanje s veterinarom prva je misao koja nam je pala napamet pa smo u svrhu toga razgovarali s doktoricom veterinarske medicine Teom Omerčić iz ambulante Dodo-Vet. Dr. Omerčić smo pitali koji je glavni razlog zbog kojeg je čokolada opasna za naše ljubimce te kako trebamo postupiti u slučaju ovakve situacije.

Metilksantin je glavni uzrok štetnosti čokolade za pse

Saznali smo da iako konzumacija čokolade ljudima donosi mnoge benefite, psima, nažalost može naštetiti čak i u manjim količinama. Aktivni sastojak metilksantin glavni je uzročnik štetnog djelovanja čokolade na zdravlje pasa.

Ovaj sastojak se u svakoj čokoladi ne nalazi u jednakoj mjeri pa će biti ključno znati koju je točno čokoladu pas pojeo. Najmanje ga ima u bijeloj čokoladi, zatim u mliječnoj. Najopasnija će biti čokolada za kuhanje i čisti kakaovac koji ga sadrže u najvećim količinama.

 „Metilksantin, ponajviše teobromin, kojeg je u čokoladi svakako više od kofeina, je gorki alkaloid iz drveta kakovca. U medicini se primjenjuje u sintetskom obliku kao blagi diuretik, srčani vazodilatator te relaksator glatke muskulature.“, kaže nam dr. Omerčić.

Utjecaj čokolade na želudac psa

Kada pas pojede čokoladu, njegov želudac prvi će osjetiti da nešto nije u redu. Dr. Omerčić tvrdi da se metilksantini u potpunosti resorbiraju u probavnom sustavu. To znači da će se i blagi oblici trovanja iskazivati povraćanje, većom žeđi kod psa, nemirom, pa čak i proljevom. Znakovi su to koji su obično vezani za probavni sustav, međutim, metilksantini djeluju i na srčani mišić i živčane smetnje.

Utjecaj čokolade na želudac naših ljubimaca dr. Omerčić komentira na ovaj način: „Za težinu otrovanja pasa bitan je mehanizam toksičnog djelovanja i toksična doza. Naime, što se mehanizma tiče, ključna je razlika između pasa i drugih životinjskih vrsta, pa i ljudi, vrijeme eliminacije teobromina iz organizma. Dok je npr. ljudima poluvrijeme života teobromina u plazmi u prosjeku 8 sati, psima je to 17.5 sati. To bi značilo, da ako pas i pojede nešto s većim udjelom kakaa, kliničke znakove trovanja ne mora pokazati odmah, nego tek za do 24 sati od ingestije. Isto tako toksičnost ovisi o dotadašnjem kliničkom stanju životinje.“

Kako smo i očekivali, mlađi i zdravi psi puno lakše podnose trovanje čokoladom od onih starih, posebno onih s kroničnim kardiološkim zdravstvenim problemima. Ponovno, bitno je koju je vrstu čokolade vaš pas pojeo. Težina otrovanja varirat će ovisno o količini teobromina u određenoj vrsti čokolade.

Što učiniti ako primijetite da je pas pojeo čokoladu?

Dr. Omerčić naglašava da nema potrebe za panikom. Savjetuje da nazovete svog veterinara i opišete mu koju čokoladu i koliko nje je pas progutao. Što se tiče namjernog izazivanja povraćanja, vršite ga samo ako vam je veterinar to savjetovao te isključivo pod njegovim nadzorom. Sve to samo ako nije prošlo više do 4 do 6 sati od gutanja i potporne terapije aktivnim ugljenom i laksativima.

U slučaju da niste vidjeli kako vaš pas jede čokoladu neće biti toliko lako ustanoviti da se baš to dogodilo jer klinički simptomi variraju ovisno o brojnim čimbenicima. Ipak, ako primijetite da vaš pas češće urinira, pije puno vode, povraća ili ima proljev moguće je da je pojeo nešto što nije smio, možda čokoladu.

Ako se radi o većoj količini čokolade ili starijem bolesnom psu ili oboje, moguće je da će doći do grčeva i drhtavice. U zbilja teškim slučajevima dolazi do otežanog i ubrzanog rada srca.

„U najgorem je scenariju moguće i uginuće uslijed respiratornog ili srčanog aresta. Zato je svakako preporuka da ako primijetite ove simptome, provjerite kuhinjske ormariće, tanjure s kolačima i nakon toga svakako što prije odvedete psa na klinički pregled svom veterinaru. On će procijeniti stanje psa te vam dati preporuku za daljnje ophođenje s vašim radoznalim kućnim ljubimcem.“, upozorila je.

Ostanite smireni i poslušajte veterinara

Kao i kod većine sličnih situacija, od velike će važnosti biti ostati smiren i kontaktirati stručnu pomoć. Biti u kontaktu s veterinarom svakako je najbolji savjet koji vam možemo dati u slučaju da se nađete u ovakvoj situaciji. Ništa ne radite na vlastitu ruku kako od silne želje za poboljšanjem stanja vašeg psa, ne biste učinili nešto što će mu još više ugroziti zdravlje.

Također, upoznajte se psećim čokoladama koje su potpuno sigurne za vašeg ljubimca. Danas uistinu postoje različite alternative koje će osigurati da vaš ljubimac uživa u mnogim slasticama, ali na pravi način koji neće štetiti njegovu zdravlju.

Dakako, potrudite se da svoju čokoladu nikada ne držite i ne ostavljajte na mjestima koja su lako dostupna vašem ljubimcu. „Bolje spriječiti, nego liječiti“, dodali bismo.

fails to thrill with same old story

Murder mysteries are trending this season. That they may not all qualify as good is a discussion for another day. The pile of mediocrity got a tad bit taller with the release of Netflix’s Polish thriller ‘Colors of Evil: Red’, with its expected violent crimes, a red herring, a ‘Mister Goody Two Shoes’ detective, tied together with an equally jaded plot.

The film starts off just fine as it sets the narrative. Based on the 2019 novel of the same name, the story follows Monika Bogucka (Zofia Jastrzebska), the mystery surrounding her death, and the ensuing police procedural. Jakub Gierszal as Leopold Bilski is keen on pursuing Monika’s murder, despite his superiors’ attempt to close the case.

An overconfident prosecutor, he teams up with Monika’s mother Helena Bogucka (Maja Ostaszewska) to derive key details to crack the case. From this point, it simply goes downhill. The lazy writing is evident in the film’s predictability. The element of surprise and suspense is crucial to the genre, and this film fails on both accounts.

The visuals too are distasteful. When Monika’s body washes ashore, the camera focuses on her bloodless face, eyes and mutilated lips for disturbingly longer than needed. Certain scenes are relentlessly and needlessly cruel.

The only saving grace for the film is Helena Bogucka, who is an embodiment of strength as she deals with insurmountable guilt since her daughter’s death. When she says, “We have failed our daughter,” it hits all the right notes. But such moments barely linger as her unidimensional character is left unexplored. Additionally, Monika’s naïveté weighs down the emotional value of the entire plot. Instead, the makers could have focussed on the path she traversed in the journey of discovering herself.

Colors of Evil: Red has characters that can be labelled as either black or white and never grey. Even with a simplistic approach, it never makes you root for its protagonists. If only the makers had shown less reluctance to break free from the ordinary and strive for something innovative.

Colors of Evil: Red

Director: Adrian Panek

Genre: Murder Mystery

Platform: Netflix

Language: Polish

Rating: 2/5

Indices hit new highs on GDP revision, political stability 

The bulls were firmly in control on Friday as higher GDP growth forecast, dovish commentary from RBI and hopes of political stability at the Centre took the benchmark indices to fresh all-time highs.

  • Also read:Stock market today: Sensex hits all-time high, as RBI raises GDP growth projection

The Reserve Bank of India revised its GDP growth forecast to 7.2 per cent for 2024-25 from 7 per cent earlier. Coalition partners pledged their support for the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance, with Narendra Modi as leader.

The European Central Bank cut interest rates by 25 bps, for the first time in nearly five years, reviving hopes that the US Fed may follow suit in September. Brent crude oil prices declined for the third straight week as the latest OPEC+ decision raised concerns over possible supply surplus.

The Sensex rose 1,618 points or 2.16 per cent to close at 76,693 on Friday, while the Nifty settled at a closing high of 23,290. Poor poll results in Uttar Pradesh were a major setback for the BJP, triggering a panic fall on Tuesday. The Nifty, however, has staged a comeback in the last three sessions, up 6.4 per cent, the highest three-session gain since February 2021. The index rose 3.4 per cent during the week, recouping all losses made on June 4.

All sectors ended in green on Friday with IT being the biggest winner, up more than 3 per cent, followed by interest sensitive sectors such as auto and real estate. Nifty VIX, a fear gauge, dropped to a one-month low of 16, signalling reduced market anxiety over government formation.

Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services, said: “The anticipation of stability within the coalition government at the Centre and the RBI’s upward revision of its growth forecast fuelled a broad-based rally. Though the last mile towards the inflation target remains sticky, investors are expecting the MPC to be one step closer to the easing cycle.”

FPIs were buyers on Friday to the tune of ₹4,391 crore even as domestic institutions sold ₹1,289 crore.

  • Also read:RBI ups GDP growth projection for FY25 at 7.2%

Most Asian indices were in the red on Friday, with Jakarta Composite the top loser. US jobless claims data came in at 229,000, slightly above the expected 220,000.

The government’s 100-day agenda and allocation of key cabinet portfolios will provide cues next week. Short-term trend for the Nifty remains strong, with resistance at 23500 and 23900 levels and support at 23000.

Zomato’s healthier options: Now what?

Food delivery app Zomato recently introduced a new feature that suggests “healthier options” when customers select food items. For instance it will suggest roti, instead of naan, and if you are hovering over a dessert, it would suggest low calorie options. Considering that Zomato has long been providing options for healthy eating, be it salads, desserts, or vegan food, the new step is not surprising. At the same time, this new feature raises some questions because the question of healthy and unhealthy food choices is not an easy one, for a customer or for the platform. Consider the following:

– Healthy for me = healthy for you? What is healthy for person A is not necessarily healthy for person B. For someone in a sedentary job vs. another whose job entails physical movement, the choices are likely to be different. A person allergic to an ingredient would consider a whole host of items unsuitable.

– The battle of healthy vs unhealthy foods. A common assumption these days is that a certain class of foods is healthy, whereas most other food is unhealthy. However, traditional wisdom and our own intuition suggests that while there are certain foods or ingredients that are most likely unhealthy (say, MSG), there are many others which are healthy or unhealthy depending on the time of day, other food items in the meal, and so on.

– That’s healthy. But how much? Seemingly healthy choices often hide the myth that quantity does not matter. Research by Peggy Liu (University of Pittsburgh) and colleagues shows that, when making healthy choices, people generally focus on the type of food and give less importance to quantity. Worse, knowing that one is making a healthy choice sometimes unwittingly leads to overcompensation through excess quantity.

– Give me health, then give me guilt. Showing a healthy option when somebody chooses an “unhealthy” dessert loads on the guilt factor at the time of ordering, eating, and even later, for someone who wants to eat the tasty but unhealthy dessert. The fun in the experience goes down, even when at times we do want that guilt-free indulgence.

– Tell me it’s healthy, again. Tell someone that a food item is unhealthy, and chances are they will assume it is tasty, as research by Raj Raghunathan (University of Texas at Austin) and colleagues show. By that token, would healthy imply not tasty?

To actively suggest a replacement as the customer chooses an item implies that Zomato knows what is healthy and what is not, or at least what is healthier. There are other options for what Zomato has attempted, options which could have a stronger factual basis.

Just as for restaurants, one option is to inform customers of calorie count, but a vast body of research on this topic indicates mixed results that are highly context dependent. Another option is to label each dish with a healthiness rating based on specific ingredients, which is quite complicated. A third option is to seek customer ratings of the healthiness of items ordered, but crowdsourcing has its disadvantages.

Focusing on customers’ health is important because healthy eating is a growing trend, especially among the rich and the educated. A platform that doesn’t have healthy options could easily be beaten by a new platform that is positioned as health-focused. After all, you can have the healthy version of any food these days, even healthy mysore pak and kaju katli. For now, Zomato seems to be testing the waters. It’s quite rational to expect that the data amassed in the coming days will enable the platform to optimize this feature.

Žena je na lice nanijela kreme kojima je istekao rok trajanja. Posljedice su strašne

UVIJEK je važno provjeriti datum isteka na proizvodima koje koristite za njegu kože. To je lekcija koju je jedna djevojka naučila na teži način. Plastični kirurg Anthony Youn pokazao je rane koje je jedna djevojka dobila nakon što je na lice nanijela proizvode kojima je istekao rok trajanja. Tako je zaradila bakterijsku infekciju, što je uzrokovalo ozbiljne opekline.

“Čekala je četiri dana prije nego što je otišla u bolnicu, gdje su joj liječnici dijagnosticirali bakterijsku infekciju koja joj je mogla ući u krvotok”, rekao je dr. Youn.

Ističe da je djevojka na lice nanijela proizvode protiv akni i tamnih mrlja kojima je istekao rok trajanja. Koža ju je odmah počela peći, pa je isprala lice, ali bilo je prekasno.

“Kao što vidite, razvile su joj se rane, zadebljanja, čak i opeklina između očiju”, rekao je liječnik te upozorio sve da odmah bace proizvode koji više nisu upotrebljivi.

“Kad proizvodima istekne rok trajanja, njihov se kemijski sastav može promijeniti i u njima mogu početi rasti bakterije”, napomenuo je.

Najveći rizici korištenja proizvoda za njegu kože kojima je istekao rok trajanja uključuju gubitak učinkovitosti i iritaciju zbog degradirajućih sastojaka. Šminku kojoj je istekao rok trajanja također nije preporučljivo koristiti jer povećava rizik od začepljenja pora i poticanja rasta bakterija.

“Koža može reagirati na sastojke proizvoda ako im je istekao rok trajanja. To može dovesti do crvenila ili iritacije. Ako bakterije dospiju u otvorenu posudu ili na četku, mogu se brzo razmnožiti i izazvati bubuljice ili druge infekcije”, kažu iz klinike Mayo.

This week, you may experience a powerful urge to learn new things and venture out into the unknown. You should be more open to new experiences. This could be through travelling, going to college, or even just expanding your horizons through books and interacting with different cultures. Do not suppress this curiosity and do not let it become a source of anxiety, but rather use it as a motivation for self-development. Be ready to make new connections and do not shut out any possibilities. It is also important to note that planning for a vacation or doing something that you have not done before can be helpful in committed relationships. This feeling of discovery together can help rekindle the flame in your relationship.

Tip of the week: Be curious for new ventures

Sagittarius

This week, you may experience a desire to explore the deeper aspects of life and the unknown. You may find yourself attracted to subjects such as the occult, spirituality, or psychology. However, it is crucial to be rational and not overemphasize the issue or go to the opposite extreme. Moderation is key. Those employed may have an opportunity to work on projects involving analysis or dealing with shared resources. But be careful with the power conflicts or political games in the workplace. Pursue and uphold the highest standards of integrity and ethical practices. This week, you may be inclined to focus on the more profound aspects of your interactions with your relatives. It is good to engage in discussions and get to know each other better and learn from each other.

Tip of the week: Explore the unknown

Your main concern will be the mutual understanding, the willingness to compromise, and the ability to find a middle ground in your relationships. This is a favourable period for signing contracts or reaching a compromise with the help of words rather than force. This is a good time to find new potential partners through friends or business acquaintances. Your interpersonal skills will be enhanced, and you will be more outgoing, friendly, and approachable, which will help you to make new friends easily. Use this time to improve your interpersonal interactions, communicate more, and create a positive atmosphere in your personal and working life.

Tip of the week: Find a middle ground

Aquarius

This week, you may feel a strong need to pay special attention to your daily activities, health, and workplace. Pay more attention to your routines and make improvements where needed. This is the best time to make a change for the better, for instance, to start exercising or to change the type of food you eat. Further, you may also feel more focused on details and willing to optimize your work processes. This week, your hard work and commitment will be appreciated by your superiors or other employees. This is a good chance to prove that you are a hardworking, responsible, and detail-oriented person. If you have been planning to approach your workplace with new ideas or changes, this could be the best time to do so.

Tip of the week: Start a new physical routine

Pisces

This week, you might be more artistic and fun-loving than usual. It is advisable to use this energy in hobbies, leisure activities, and time with children or loved ones. However, do not be too indulgent with pleasures or be too indulgent with yourself. Work hard and play hard: It is important to have a balanced lifestyle. This week, singles may feel more self-assured and desirable, which is beneficial for dating and forming new connections. However, do not be quick to be drawn by passion or fall in love too easily, or get into relationships too soon. For those in committed relationships, go out and plan for some fun and romantic activities with your partner to help rekindle the flame and make your relationship stronger.

Tip of the week: Work hard, play hard

Kad mu vlasnica kaže “ne”, ovaj patuljasti jazavčar protestira na presladak način

PSI MOGU biti teški za discipliniranje jer su toliko umiljati. Njihovom molećivom pogledu teško je odoljeti, ali vlasnica patuljastog jazavčara, Darcie, morala je biti stroga i reći svom ljubimcu “ne”.

Okrutna riječ od dva slova bila je okidač za mali izljev bijesa pa je Darcie počela nježno cviljeti, kao da se trudi promijeniti mišljenje svoje gazdarice.

“Ne prihvaća ‘ne’ kao odgovor”, našalila se vlasnica u snimci koju možete pogledati u nastavku.

Video sa snimanja Calvin Klein Pride kampanje zapalio TikTok: “90-e su se vratile”

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

KRAJEM svibnja, uoči Pride mjeseca, Calvin Klein je lansirao novu kampanju za 2024. godinu pod nazivom This is Love. Službene fotografije, koje je snimio Gordon von Steiner, prikazuju supermodel i glumicu Caru Delevingne te glumca i pjevača Jeremyja Popea kako predstavljaju odjeću iz nove kolekcije, uključujući donje rublje s duginim bojama i oznakom Calvin Kleina te majicu s natpisom Pride is Freedom.

Snimka iza kulisa zapalila je TikTok

‘Atlas’ explores unlikely love between human and AI

What did the robot scene look like for you on set?

Lots of green screen and X-marks, where things were going to be added later. For the big fight scenes with other robots—the explosions and everything—some guys would physically shake the pod I was in, so I got to feel it and had something to work with.

You are someone who likes to look after yourself. Does that level of fitness help in a role like this?

Absolutely. I try to stay as athletic as I can, but this was challenging in a way that was different from anything I had done before because this is a character that doesn’t start out as some kind of action hero. She’s kind of thrown into the action as part of the situation she finds herself in and has to adapt.

Sterling K Brown plays Colonel Elias Banks. How was getting to work with him?

It felt great to work with such an amazing actor. And compared to the robot scenes, it all just felt so simple to look into another person’s eyes, and be in the moment. But, Sterling makes it so easy. He’s an incredible actor. You really do just have to look at him to know what you need to do.

What is the significance of your character’s change of hairstyle in the end?

There was a line, that got taken out from the beginning of the movie, where Atlas is told how her hair was always messy as a little girl because nobody combed it and nobody cared. As she got older, her hair was still messy because she didn’t care about herself. She didn’t let anybody in. So, the hair is a kind of metaphor for her messy life up to having this experience that changes it forever. By finally letting someone in, she is transformed into a different, stronger person. That is what love does to you.

The movie deals with the subject of trust. What does it take for you to trust someone?

I am kind of the opposite of Atlas. I am all about love and trust, but it does sometimes take time for me to trust. I think we can trust too quickly, and then realise we shouldn’t have. It all depends on the person, but I am lucky to have people in my life I can trust.

Finally, what do you hope audiences take away from watching ‘Atlas’?

I hope they are thrilled by the action, but I also hope it starts conversations about how we use AI, and how we need to be responsible and careful. We must not let it get away from us.

Election Results Turbulence: FPIs dump ₹17,794 crore in equities in June

Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) continued to be net sellers of Indian equities in the first week of June, despite a market rebound from the 5.9 per cent crash of benchmark indices on Tuesday, due to the unexpected results on election day, June 4.

  • Also read:FPIs increase Indian equities sell-off in May amid election concerns, favourable HK market valuations 

For the week ended June 7, FPI offloaded equities worth ₹ 14,794 crore, data with depositories showed. This was over and above their net sales of ₹25,586 crore in May, 2024, and ₹ 8,671 crore in April, 2024.

Till June 7 this calendar year, FPIs have been net sellers to the tune of ₹38,158 crore ($4.6 billion), official data showed. Domestic institutional investors have remained bullish on Indian equities, and remained big buyers including June so as to counterbalance the FPI selling. 

Both on Monday and Friday last, FPIs were heavy net buyers of Indian equities at ₹6,850 crore, and ₹4,391 crore. While Monday’s activity was largely seen as short, covering bump after the exit polls showed a comfortable win for the BJP (which was however not the case as seen on Friday, when the BJP fell short of the magic 272 seats mark). 

On the other hand, Friday’s activity was being seen as a sort of relief purchase, after it came clear that NDA (the BJP with allies), would form the government with Prime Minister Narendra Modi returning to power for the third time in a row. The other three days including June 4, (when FPIs net outflows was ₹12,436 crore on a single day), saw FPIs involved into robust selling. 

Capital market experts, however, had a mixed take on the outlook for FPI activity in the Indian markets, post the crucial election results week.

V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Financial Services, said that the market in the near term, is likely to be weighed down by the huge FPI selling. Therefore, the large caps in sectors like financials, and IT, where FPIs have huge assets under management may underperform. This trend will change, when FPIs turn buyers, which is inevitable, Vijayakumar said.

“After the huge volatility witnessed in the market in response to the election results, (both exit polls, and actual results), the market is slowly stabilising. 

An important point to consider, is the high valuations of Indian stocks, particularly in the broader market. High valuations, will attract further selling by FPIs, going forward”, he said.

However, Manoj Purohit, Partner, and leader – FS Tax, Tax, and Regulatory Services, BDO India, said “FPIs did react to the election results, resulting in substantial selling pressure with a decision to exit. However, post the final results, the investor fraternity, is now back in action, to look at India as a preferred jurisdiction, as compared to other markets”

Post the election results, and settling down on the political front, India is back on radar, showcasing its strong fundamentals, and long term growth story, he added.

The primary factors that can be attributed to instill such a belief, is positive GDP numbers, the government’s consistent policy reforms to make India a conducive place to invest, and recent announcements of interest rate cut by the European central bank, making room for the substantial investment opportunities, according to Purohit.

“FPIs in India, will continue to grow under a stable government regime, conducive environment, backed by inflation control, fiscal prudence, and a far-sighted vision for India to a make a global hub for capital markets”, Purohit said. 

After the June 4 shocker of unexpected election results, (when the BJP fell short of the 272 mark), the equity markets have recovered smartly, with Nifty, ending with weekly gains of 3.6 per cent on the back of IT, and financial stocks. IT stocks were up 8.6 per cent, on a weekly basis.

Vijaykumar said that FPIs are regarding Indian valuations to be very high, and therefore, capital has been shifting to cheaper markets. “The FPI pessimism regarding Chinese stocks, appears to be over, and there is a trend of investing in Chinese stocks listed on the Hong Kong Exchange, since, the valuations of Chinese stocks have turned very attractive,” he said.

In March, and February this year, FPIs were net equity buyers at ₹35,098 crore, and ₹1,539 crore, respectively. They were net sellers of equities, at ₹25,744 crore in January, 2024.

Ovo je jedan od glavnih znakova visoko funkcionalne depresije koji često ne uočavamo

IAKO to nije službena dijagnoza, visoko funkcionalna depresija češća je nego što ljudi misle. Ljudi s visoko funkcionalnom depresijom ne spavaju cijeli dan, a njihovi kolege ili članovi obitelji ne moraju uopće sumnjati da nešto nije u redu.

“Dijagnoza se čisto skriva iza uspjeha i produktivnosti”, kaže psihologinja Natasha Trujillo za BuzzFeed.

Netko s visoko funkcionalnom depresijom vjerojatno neće imati problema ni na poslu ni kod kuće. Štoviše, ljudi koji imaju visoko funkcionalnu depresiju ni sami nisu svjesni da su depresivni.

“Glavni znak koji pokazuje da nešto nije u redu jest trajni osjećaj nezadovoljstva unatoč dobrim stvarima koje se događaju. Ljudi s visoko funkcionalnom depresijom su produktivni i uspješni, ali ne osjećaju ponos ili radost. Misle da neke stvari možda ne zaslužuju ili da su samo imali sreće”, pojasnila je.

Netko tko ima visoko funkcionalnu depresiju može se prisiljavati da bude društven, teško se koncentrira, osjeća se umorno, beznadno ili bezvrijedno te ne može objasniti zašto. Povremeno se osjeća tužno i doživljava promjene u obrascima spavanja i prehrane.

Visokofunkcionalna depresija je ozbiljna, a kao i kod izraženijih oblika depresije, njezine posljedice, ako se ne liječi, mogu uključivati zlouporabu supstanci i suicidalne ideje. Zato je važno potražiti pomoć ako prepoznate simptome, bilo kod sebe ili kod bliske osobe.

Multiple Sclerosis Risk in Young Adults and Women More Likely To Increase: Experts

New Delhi, June 8: Young adults and women are more likely to suffer from multiple sclerosis, said experts on Saturday. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a complex, chronic, autoimmune, and neurological disease that primarily affects the central nervous system, leading to a range of symptoms and health issues.

Data from the World Health Organisation (WHO) estimate that over 1.8 million people worldwide live with MS. The prevalence of MS in India ranges from 7 to 30 per 100,000 people, according to various studies. World MS Day 2024 Date, Theme and Significance: What Is Multiple Sclerosis? Everything You Need To Know About the Day.

“MS can strike anyone at any age, however, persons between the ages of 20 and 40 are the ones who are diagnosed with it most frequently. Women are disproportionately affected since they are two to three times more likely than men to have the condition,” Dr. Himanshu Champaneri Senior Consultant- Department of Neurosciences and Neurosurgery, Marengo Asia Hospitals, Gurugram, told IANS.

Common symptoms include numbness or sensory loss, paraesthesia in limbs or face, vision loss, weakness in one or more limbs, double vision, imbalance while walking, and bladder problems such as difficulty holding or passing urine.

In addition, some patients experience a current-like sensation running down the spine with neck movements. These symptoms typically develop over a few days to weeks, differentiating them from stroke symptoms, which have a rapid onset within seconds to minutes.

Dr Neeraj Balaini, Consultant – Neurology, Aster RV Hospital, told IANS that the exact cause of MS is not fully understood.

“Risk factors for MS include genetic predisposition, certain viral infections (such as Epstein-Barr virus and Human herpes virus-6), smoking, and vitamin D deficiency,” he said.

The doctor further explained that in MS, there is a loss of myelin — the insulating covering around nerves in the brain and spinal cord. This demyelination disrupts the electrical signals in the nerves, leading to the various symptoms of MS.

“Severe myelin damage can also result in the loss of nerve fibres themselves,” Dr. Neeraj said. “MS is treatable but not curable. Without treatment, patients may accumulate disabilities from repeated attacks or enter a progressive phase where disability increases gradually without new attacks.

“Clinical depression is more frequent in people with MS due to both the psychological impact of the disease and potential neuroendocrine changes caused by MS,” he noted.

Along with medications, the experts stressed a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle to manage MS. Eating a healthy and nutritious diet, managing weight, avoiding alcohol and tobacco, maintaining a balanced diet, ensuring good sleep hygiene, and managing hypertension and diabetes, can help preserve healthy neurons and support overall health.

Physical exercise is also important in managing MS and improving quality of life. In addition, “taking preventative measures to avoid infections may be helpful as some viral infections are known to trigger MS and genetic counselling may be helpful for those with a family history of the disease,” Dr. Himanshu said.

FIR says CISF guard slapped her after coming out of frisking booth

Actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut called out Bollywood celebrities on Friday for not voicing their support after she was slapped by a CISF guard at Chandigarh airport.

Himachal Pradesh’s newly elected MP from Mandi constituency was ‘hit in the face’ by Kulwinder Kaur, a woman CISF constable on Thursday afternoon.

‘Queen’ star Mandi MP slams B-town

A day after the incident, Ranaut took to her Instagram and criticised Bollywood in a series of stories that has now been deleted but went viral. She referred to the film industry as the ‘All Eyes on Rafah Gang’ and expressed disappointment at their lack of support.

“Dear film industry you all are either celebrating or are totally mum on the airport attack on me remember if tomorrow if you walking disarmingly on some street of your country or anywhere else in the world and some Israeli/Palestinian hits you or your children just because you tried to bring eyes to Rafah or stood up for Israeli hostage… then you will see I will be fighting for your rights of free speech, if someday you wonder why I am where I am remember you are not me…” wrote the BJP MP which was later taken down.

She added another story which read, “All eyes on Rafah Gang this can happen to you or your children as well. When you celebrate a terror attack on someone, be ready for the day it comes back to you as well.”

Here is what the FIR says

The action which was recorded in CCTV cameras went viral on social media.

The Mohali police registered an FIR against the Kulwinder Kaur, who by then was suspended, based on the complaint filed by the CISF Inspector.

In his complaint, Inspector Surendra Kumar Sharma told Punjab Police that Ranaut was being escorted by four staff including the CISF inspector, two women police and a Vistara airline staff.

It was then Kaur came out from her frisking booth and and slapped Ranaut.

The FIR noted that Ranaut was travelling from Chandigarh to Delhi by Vistara Flight No UK-707(STD-15:45hrs).

“After completion of PESC (pre-embarkation security check), she was proceeding towards boarding gate at about 15:28 hrs and in the meantime, CISF Lady Constable Kulwinder Kaur who was also deployed in the Domestic SHA (adjacent ladies frisking booth) came out from her frisking booth and slapped Miss Kangana Ranaut. Immediately, lady constable Kulwinder Kaur was pushed by Lady Constable Veerpal Kaur towards frisking booth. Later, Ranaut left PESC point and proceeded for her scheduled flight. In this regard, it is requested to lodge an FIR against CISF lady Constable/GO’ Kulwinder Kaur for her misbehaviour with Miss Kangana Ranaut,” read the FIR.

Meanwhile, the police too confirmed and said that the CCTV footage shows that the actor-politician was stopped by the woman constable during security check who then ‘hit her face.’

The suspended CISF guard has been booked under Sections 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) and 341 (wrongful restraint) of the Indian Penal Code.

In a video that surfaced after the incident, Kulwinder Kaur was seen telling a passenger about her intentions behind slapping Ranaut.

“Kangana said that during farmer protest, women were sitting there for Rs 100. When she gave this statement, my mother was sitting there. Will Kangana sit at the protest?” asked Kaur.

Dijetetičarke: Jedenje ove vrste orašastih plodova može vam pomoći da smršavite

ORAŠASTE plodove preporučljivo je jesti iz više razloga, vrlo su zdravi i odlična su alternativa za grickanje u odnosu na neke nezdravije opcije. Dijetetičarke Bianca Tamburello i Samantha MacCleod za Eating Well otkrile su da jedenje jedne vrste orašastih plodova čak može pomoći s mršavljenjem.

Bianca Tamburello ističe da su “orašasti plodovi odlična hrana za mršavljenje jer su prepuni zdravih masnoća koje potiču sitost te proteina i vlakana. Bogati su hranjivim tvarima i sadrže dosta kalorija, ali to nije razlog da ih izbjegavate, samo vodite računa o količini dnevnih porcija”.

Kao najbolju vrstu orašastih plodova koje možete jesti za mršavljenje, dijetetičarke su izdvojile bademe. Evo i zašto. 

Visok udio vlakana

“Vlakna su važan nutrijent u većini dijeta. Ako pokušavate smršavjeti, vlakna mogu biti važna jer pomažu da dulje ostanete siti i zadovoljni”, tvrdi dijetetičarka Samantha MacCleod. Hrana bogata vlaknima može utjecati na poboljšanje metabolizma, smanjiti rizik od srčanih bolesti i dijabetesa tipa 2 te utjecati na bolju probavnu funkciju, prenosi Eating Well.

Obiluju protuupalnim svojstvima

Bademi su bogati protuupalnim biljnim spojevima koji se nazivaju flavonoidi, polifenoli i proantocijanidini. Namirnice s protuupalnim djelovanjem, poput badema, pomažu u mršavljenju budući da dokazi pokazuju kako prekomjerna težina može dovesti do kronične upale ili biti uzrokovana njome, pokazalo je istraživanje objavljeno u časopisu Nutr. iz 2020. godine.

MacCleod ističe da “vlakna u orašastim plodovima mogu pomoći u održavanju stabilne razine šećera u krvi, što utječe i pomaže na smanjenje upala u tijelu”.

Puni su proteina

Tijelo neprestano obnavlja i održava kosti, mišiće, stanice i tkiva, a za sve to potrebni su proteini. Tamburello ističe da je “pretjerano ograničavanje u jedenju hrane uobičajena pogreška pri mršavljenju te može dovesti do toga da kasnije pojedete previše”. Zato je preporučljivo jesti hranu bogatu proteinima koja će usporiti probavu i učiniti nas sitima.

Jeste li ikada čuli za Peterbald mačku? Kažu da se ponaša kao pas

PETERBALD je iznimno specifičan pasmina mačka, kako zbog izgleda, tako i zbog karaktera koji podsjeća na pseći. Da, radi se o mački koja obožava različite igre, čak i mozgalice. Trikove uče na sličan način kao i psi, pa ne čudi da vrijeme najradije provode u ljudskom društvu. Kažu da ove mace naprosto obožavaju svoje vlasnike i da su im neobično odane, baš kao psi.

Inače, Peterbald mačka potječe iz Rusije, točnije iz grada Rostova na Donu. Njezini su se predci pojavili 1988. godine, piše WebMD. Tada se radilo o pasmini Don Sphynx koja je zaintrigirala mnoge, pa je dovedena u Europu. 1993. godine Don Sphynx mačku križali su s orijentalnom kratkodlakom mačkom kako bi se dobili prvi primjerci Peterbald mačke kakvu danas poznajemo. Jedan od četiri mačića bio je nazvan Nocturne iz Murina, koji je postao svojevrstan “praotac” vrste budući da njegove gene možemo pronaći u svakoj čistokrvnoj živućoj jedinki vrste.

Savršena mačka za cijelu obitelj

Zbog svoje spomenute “pseće” naravi, ova je mačka idealna za obitelji s djecom budući da neće bježati kada se vaša djeca požele maziti s njom. Također, velika prednost pasmine jest to što nemaju problem s drugim kućnim ljubimcima, bilo mačkama ili psima. Ove energične mačke obožavaju igru, pa će im zaigrana djeca itekako prijati. Naravno, trebate biti svjesni da ove mačke bez krzna mogu biti mnogo osjetljivije na ogrebotine i druge površinske ozljede zadobivene u igri. Naučite dijete kako se primjereno igrati s mačkom kako biste izbjegli probleme.

Peterbald mačka nije jako zahtjevna

Peterbald mačke dolaze u nekoliko varijanti; neke su potpuno bezdlake, dok neke imaju vrlo kratku dlaku. Ipak, s ovakvim pasminama mačaka bez dlake ili gotovo bez dlake, koje su uz to vrlo živahne, vjerojatno će doći do laganih ozljeda. Bilo bi dobro da vam veterinar propiše antibiotsku mast koju ćete imati u blizini u tim slučajevima. Mast će pomoći da se rane održe čistima te da brže zarastu.

Sve u svemu, peterbald mačke smatraju se ljubimcima koje nije potrebno previše njegovati budući da se neće linjati. Ipak, one potpuno bezdlake varijante trebali biste povremeno kupati i brisati masnoću koja im se može nakupiti na koži kako biste spriječili iritaciju. Naravno, obvezno je držati ih u kući kako se ne bi prehladile ili opekle na suncu budući da nemaju debelo krzno koje bi ih štitilo od loših vanjskih utjecaja.

Rohit Sharma Resumes Batting in the Nets After Recovering From Sore Finger Injury: Report

Rohit Sharma showcased some signs of regaining his lost touch with the bat during the IND vs IRE ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 match. Rohit played a knock of 52 runs from 37 balls. His stay at the crease consisted of four fours and three sixes. However, the Indian captain retired hurt and had to return back to the dressing room due to a sore arm. Rohit suffered the accident while receiving a throwdown in the nets ahead of the match, which later led to a complaint against the pitches by the BCCI to ICC, as per a source. ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Points Table Group D: Netherlands Comes Out On Top in Low-Scoring Contest Against Nepal

While there were speculations that Rohit Sharma might miss the all-important India vs Pakistan clash, as per a report by Vimal Kumar, Rohit is fine and is practising in the nets with the Indian team. Vimal shared a tweet on his official Twitter handle and informed about the development. Rohit returning back to form is a great sign for the Indian team as he can prove to be very handy against the Pakistani pacers. Most Runs in ICC T20 World Cup 2024: Afghanistan’s Rahmanullah Gurbaz Tops List of Leading Run-Scorers at the Men’s T20WC

Rohit Sharma had a decent run in the Indian Premier League 2024 with Mumbai India. The latter scored a hundred against the Chennai Super Kings and played quite a few impactful knocks. However, he lost his touch in the latter half of the competition and needed to get back to form quickly. Sharma might once again open with Virat Kohli, who was dismissed for 1 run against Ireland.

A bland thriller bogged down by a convoluted screenplay

CHENNAI: After back-to-back hits in the 80s and a long absence, Mohan is finally back in Haraa where he takes the role of a vigilante hero, a saviour and a villain all at once. Just like how his character travels far and wide to unravel the mystery around the death of his daughter, Nimisha, the plot too meanders all over the place, stumbling along the way.

Haraa centres around Ram (a) Ibrahim who is grieving the loss of his daughter after she dies by suicide. He goes on a mission to uncover secrets and avenge her death. In the first scene, Mohan heads out to look for clues. He gets inside an auto, speaks to two or three people, and then into an ambulance when he sees a few people following him. After this, he gets onto a bike. Similarly, the screenplay moves from one pointless scene to another, mostly in circles, sometimes in triangles and at moments, all over the place. The story takes Ram through a gritty criminal world mired in ugly politics and a plethora of complications that come along with it. Instead of unravelling it in a way that tests the knowledge of a discerning audience, it holds exposition as a crutch to drag its way through the plot, eventually killing suspense and other elements that would have made it much more interesting.

At the crux of Haraa is a dad-daughter love story that deserves better writing. Sometimes, the film takes their relationship a tad too far. When I say too far, it goes to the extent of mistaking patriarchy and regressive mentality for love and progressiveness. In perhaps the most bizarre scene of them all, Ram goes to Nimisha’s school to tell the teachers that she won’t be able to attend the exam as she had her menarche. Even when the teachers reiterate that they would provide her with sanitary products to help her deal with it, he denies it and agrees on her behalf to skip a year of education. In the raging debate around menstrual leaves, women have always asserted their choice, but for a man to speak in her name only takes the conversation back to a few decades. Speaking of it, even the parents finding out about her menarche is straight out of a ‘90s film.

Haraa attempts to paint Mohan as a simple man who goes to great lengths to avenge the death of his daughter. But the film thrusts lyrics like “Maassuke maasu Ivan, Silver Jubilee star ivan,” clearly picturing him as a hero making a comeback. In another scene, Mohan beats several goons in a bus. He delivers one blow to a guy’s face and Rajendran goes, “Mouna Raagam parakudhe.” The botched meta-commentary goes on. There’s another blow and he says, “Mella Thirandhadhu un mandai.” Apart from Rajendran, there are Yogi Babu, Deepa Shankar, Singampuli, and Aadhavan who cross paths with Mohan at different intervals to provide what the makers thought would be ‘comic relief’. Instead, they stick out like a sore thumb and are completely out of place. The dialogues don’t help either and are a desperate cry to help fix the screenplay which is stretched so far to encompass several elements that remain as fragments in an already convoluted storyline. Adding to it are several lip-sync and messy dubbing issues. Anumol, who had an earnest performance in Ayali, is terribly underutilised. Worse, she is made into a classic, overly sentimental mother.

Shares of CMS Info Systems have been on the rise on on Friday hit an all-time high of ₹474.20 on the BSE, as analysts remained bullish on the stock due to its strong fundamentals, besides future growth potential. The stock closed at ₹465.25 — a gain of 115 per cent for its IPO investors.

  • Also read:ixigo’s parent firm says existing investors sell shares worth ₹176 crore in pre-IPO round

Jefferies, global investment advisory firm, said Revenues can grow at 30 per cent+ CAGR and share could rise from 5-7 per cent of total with good margins. CMS is set to ramp up remote monitoring system that is on stronger platform & applied at 25k+ ATMs, bank/ NBFCs/ insurance branches & retail outlets. “Scale-up of RMS, diversification into bullion-logistics and collections with cash management growth will aid 20 per cent CAGR in profit,” it said. Jefferies remained Buy on the stock with a price target of ₹600.

The company is into cash management and is engaged in installing, maintaining and managing assets and technology solutions on an end-to-end outsourced basis for banks, financial institutions, organised retail and e-commerce companies in India. It launched its IPO in December 2021 with a price band of ₹205-216.

Brokerages upbeat

Asian Market Securities, in a note, said: “We maintain a Buy rating on the company and revised FY26E P/E multiple from 16x to 18x, considering strong revenue visibility and order book wins, resulting in a target price of ₹560 based on FY26 EPS estimate of ₹31.”

The company has a dividend payout ratio of about 25 per cent, it said adding that CMS Info has demonstrated strong market leadership positions, with attractive margin and return profile.

According to IIFL Securities, which also maintained its Buy stance on the stock with a target price of ₹520, said CMS expects FY25 revenue in the upper half of ₹2,500-2,700 crore. Management highlighted significant growth opportunities in Retail Cash Management (RCM) and AIoT remote monitoring while stating its intent to expand into collection services and specialised logistics.

Another domestic brokerage DAM Capital (formerly IDFC Securities) said: “Our thesis on CMS Info Systems as a cost-effective partner for non-core operations for the BFSI industry remains intact. Size, scale benefits and debt free/cash rich balance sheet provide it an envious competitive advantage in CM – a growing, cash generating business – which in turn is helping it deepen its reach in various MS verticals while also increasing wallet-share with existing clients.”

Axis Securities CMS Info’s customers for cash management include India’s Top-5 PSU banks and Top-3 private banks. It is also attempting to cross-sell its managed services offerings to these customers and has been successful with banking-automation products, and remote monitoring offerings.

Zašto je teško smršavjeti? Ove knjige nude odgovor

KAKO nam je ljeto pred vratima, tako sve više nas osjeća tjeskobu zbog viška kilograma. Nekima je uspjelo u proteklim mjesecima uz velik napor vježbanja i odricanja od hrane skinuti koji kilogram pa sad osjećaju ushit koji se može mjeriti onim kod osvajanja visoke planine. No, najčešće je ta idealna težina samo kratkotrajna fatamorgana i ubrzo se vratimo u nezadovoljavajuće stanje – i tako u krug.

Drugi nisu bili te sreće te na vagu staju očajni i bespomoćni. Postavili smo si pitanje: mora li to tako biti ili možda pristupamo problemu na pogrešan način? Pronašli smo nekoliko vrlo zanimljivih naslova koji prehranu sagledavaju iz neuobičajenih kutova te se više bave balansom između psihe i tijela i ulogom mišića u zdravlju nego standardnim dijetnim režimom. Ipak, uvijek treba imati na umu da živimo u vremenu prerađene hrane koja, konzumirate li je previše, neminovno dovodi do debljine, što god mi činili i kako se god osjećali. A sada, krenimo s preporukama.

Hrana i osjećaji – dr. Will Cole

Kada je riječ o prehrani i zdravlju, lako je zbuniti se i osjetiti se sasvim preplavljenima i shrvanima milijardom najrazličitijih i često suprotstavljenih informacija. Zbog tolikog mnoštva preporuka o tome što da jedemo, kada i kako, emocionalni se učinak prehrane na osobu često ostavlja po strani. Will Cole ilustrira načine na koje stres i osjećaj srama mogu pridonijeti upalama u crijevima te potkopati zdravlje u procesu koji on naziva upalom izazvanom osjećajem srama.

Zdravstveni problemi probavnog sustava mogu se pojaviti u obliku naglih promjena raspoloženja, tjeskobe i žudnje za određenim vrstama hrane, no mogu se očitovati i kao neka od mnogih vrsta autoimunih bolesti. Dobra vijest: moguće je iscijeliti vezu između fizičkog i psihičkog pomoću hranjivim tvarima bogatih namirnica te somatskih praksi koje podržavaju zdravlje želuca, crijeva i mozga. Dr. Cole pomoći će vam da ponovno razmislite o svom odnosu prema hrani i vlastitom tijelu vraćajući vas u dodir s onime što osjećate u svom želucu i crijevima, s tim praiskonskim oblikom tjelesne intuicije

Što jedeš? – Ana Smokrović

U ovoj izvanrednoj knjizi autorica istražuje kako stvaramo prehrambene navike, koju ulogu u tome imaju trendovi, mediji i društvene mreže, kako kultura nameće “idealno” tijelo i time utječe na naš odabir hrane, zašto industrijski uzgojena hrana ugrožava prirodu i naše zdravlje i još mnogo toga.

Ovo je također i knjiga nade koja nas podsjeća na važnost preispitivanja stavova, mišljenja i osjećaja kako bismo donosili što bolje odluke za sebe i društvo u cjelini te da sve što činimo ostavlja trag u svijetu. U vama će probuditi glad za sezonski i lokalno uzgojenom organskom hranom, a možda vas čak i potaknuti da se odvažite i na njezin uzgoj.

Crijeva sa šarmom – Giulia Enders

Knjiga koju već sada možemo smatrati modernim klasikom i jedan od najboljih (i najzabavnijih) vodiča za upoznavanje sa svojim crijevima. Do sada praćena imidžom “crne ovce” među organima, gotovo kao nešto čega se trebamo sramiti, naša se crijeva razotkrivaju kao nevjerojatno složen i prekrasan organ.  Tomu u prilog govore nepobitne znanstvene činjenice: dvije trećine našeg imunološkog sustava nalaze se u našim crijevima i, poslije mozga, crijeva imaju najkompleksniji i najveći živčani sustav.

Najrazličitije bolesti, od prekomjerne tjelesne težine, mnogih alergija pa sve do tjeskobe i depresije, povezane su s poremećenom ravnotežom crijevne flore i bolesnim crijevima. Ako o njima vodimo brigu i njegujemo ih, ona postaju osnova našeg zdravlja. Najnovija medicinska istraživanja, koja autorica iznosi s nevjerojatnom lakoćom, otkrivaju fascinantne podatke i potvrđuju da su upravo zdrava crijeva ključ za tjelesno i duševno zdravlje te dug i sretan život.

Zauvijek snažni – dr. Gabrielle Lyon

Vrlo zanimljiva knjiga koja izlazi krajem mjeseca te ju svakako trebate staviti na svoju listu za buduće čitanje. Nakon godina promatranja pacijenata koji su dolazili u njezinu ordinaciju, dr. Gabrielle Lyon uočila je obrazac. Iako su se njezini pacijenti borili s različitim medicinskim stanjima, svi su patili od istoga: njihov pravi problem nije bio višak tjelesne masnoće, već manjak mišićne mase.

Kada govorimo o mišićima, obično najprije pomislimo na tjelesnu snagu ili izgled, ali oni su mnogo više od toga. Kao najveći endokrini organ u tijelu, mišići zapravo određuju cjelokupnu putanju ljudskog zdravlja i starenja. Mnogi od problema s kojima su se suočavali pacijenti dr. Lyon zapravo su simptomi nedovoljno razvijenih ili nezdravih mišića. Štoviše, i mnoga nedavna istraživanja potvrđuju povezanost manjka mišićne mase sa smanjenim očekivanim životnim vijekom.

India Likely Playing XI for ICC T20 World Cup 2024 vs Pakistan: Check Predicted Indian 11 for IND vs PAK Match in New York

All eyes will be on the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on June 9 when the Indian national cricket team takes on Pakistan national cricket team in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Much has already been said about this high-profile clash and now it is time for the action to unfold as the age-old rivalry in cricket is set to be reignited at an entirely new venue. The newly-constructed venue will witness a legion of fans expected to swoon in to catch a glimpse of one of the most storied rivalries in cricket. Rohit Sharma and his men will hope to continue their good form in ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Pakistan on the other hand, will look forward to lifting themselves up from a disappointing loss to the USA. Read below to see what India’s playing XI might look like against Pakistan. When Is India vs Pakistan Match in ICC T20 World Cup 2024? Check Date, Time in IST and Venue of IND vs PAK Twenty20 WC Game.

India began their ICC T20 World Cup 2024 campaign on a winning note, beating Ireland by eight wickets. The bowlers set up this win for the Indian cricket team as they bowled out Ireland for just 96 runs. In response, India chased down the target in 12.2 overs with skipper Rohit Sharma scoring a half-century on what was a difficult wicket to bat. Elsewhere in Dallas, Pakistan cricket team got off to a forgettable start to their ICC T20 World Cup 2024 with a shock loss to the USA. Babar Azam and his men were below par with the bat in hand and weren’t at their best in bowling and fielding departments as well. The PAK vs USA match headed to a Super Over where the co-hosts came out on top.  ICC T20 World Cup 2024: Most Successive Wins for India National Cricket Team Against an Opponent in T20Is Ahead of IND vs PAK Match.

Top-Order: Captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will continue to open the innings. Kohli’s promotion to the top-order looks to be a prolonged move, despite the latter failing to make a mark against Ireland. The experience of both these veterans will be helpful in countering the much-famed pace attack of Pakistan cricket team on difficult surface to bat. Rishabh Pant looked pretty much at ease while batting at number three and he will continue to occupy that slot.

Middle-Order: Suryakumar Yadav, the world no 1 T20I batter, is set to come in at number four. The dynamic right-hander had a short stay at the crease against Ireland and he will look to make an impact against Pakistan. He is going to be followed by Shivam Dube at five. Dube is known for his aggressive batting, especially against spinners and it will be interesting to see how he tackles Pakistan’s spin attack, which comprises of Imad Wasim and Shadab Khan.

All-Rounders: Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel are set to be the all-rounders in India’s playing XI vs Pakistan. Pandya was at his best with the ball against Ireland, taking three wickets which broke the back of the opposition’s batting. Axar was superb and so was Jadeja and the trio will hope to repeat a similar performance against Pakistan. Nassau, New York Weather Forecast for June 09: Are There Chances of Rain During India vs Pakistan ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Cricket Match?

Bowlers: Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh and Mohammad Siraj will be form India’s pace attack against Pakistan. Arshdeep was impressive in the match against Ireland, sending back both openers pretty early on in the contest. Bumrah was superb, conceding just six runs in three overs while taking two wickets, a performance which bagged him the Man of the Match award. Siraj also was decent, giving away 13 runs in three overs while picking up a wicket. Axar and Jadeja are set to be the two spinners and should India decide to go in with a third spinner, Siraj might make way for Kuldeep Yadav.

India National Cricket Team Playing XI for ICC T20 World Cup 2024 Match Against Ireland

Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj

‘Baby Reindeer’ inspiration sues Netflix for USD 179 million

LOS ANGELES: A British woman who claims she was the inspiration for the stalker in the smash Netflix hit “Baby Reindeer” sued the streamer Thursday, demanding $170 million in damages.

Fiona Harvey has identified herself as the real-life “Martha,” the delusional, violent and abusive woman at the center of Richard Gadd’s global phenomenon, which claims in its opening episode to be “a true story.”

“The above quote… is the biggest lie in television history,” the lawsuit, filed in California, says.

“It is a lie told by Netflix and the show’s creator, Richard Gadd, out of greed and lust for fame; a lie designed to attract more viewers, get more attention, to make more money, and to viciously destroy the life of Plaintiff, Fiona Harvey.”

In a statement to AFP, a Netflix spokesperson said: “We intend to defend this matter vigorously and to stand by Richard Gadd’s right to tell his story.”

The seven-episode series premiered on Netflix in April and quickly became a huge hit.

The show, based on Gadd’s one-man play, follows a fictionalized version of the author who meets a woman in the pub where he works.

What unspools over the following episodes is a deeply disturbing years-long ordeal for Gadd in which Martha sends thousands of emails, texts and voice messages as she harasses him, his girlfriend and his family.

Martha, who the show claims to have been previously convicted for stalking a lawyer, is also shown to sexually assault Gadd.

The British writer and performer has told journalists that he changed details about Martha in an effort to protect her identity, but armchair detectives quickly tracked her down and began contacting her on social media.

After being outed, Harvey appeared on British television, denying that she had bombarded Gadd with messages, or that she had attacked him or his girlfriend.

“The lies that Defendants told about Harvey to over 50 million people worldwide include that Harvey is a twice convicted stalker who was sentenced to five years in prison, and that Harvey sexually assaulted Gadd,” the suit says.

“Defendants told these lies, and never stopped, because it was a better story than the truth, and better stories made money.

“And Netflix, a multinational billion dollar entertainment streaming company did literally nothing to confirm the ‘true story’ that Gadd told.”

The suit against Netflix alleges defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligence, among other claims, and demands $170 million.

Urolozi upozoravaju muškarce da ne ignoriraju ovaj simptom raka prostate

RAK PROSTATE jedan je od najčešćih tipova raka kod muškaraca, a u smrtnosti je odmah iza raka pluća. Otprilike jedan od osam muškaraca bit će dijagnosticiran rak prostate tijekom života, prema Američkom društvu za rak (ACS). Srećom, bolest može biti izlječiva ako se otkrije na vrijeme.

“To je potpuno izlječiva bolest ako se rano otkrije, primjerice, dok je rak još lokaliziran na prostati i nije se proširio”, kaže urolog dr. Ramkishen Narayanan za Parade. Stoga liječnici žele nastaviti komunicirati i širiti svijest o znakovima raka prostate. Jedan simptom uključuje bol na neočekivanom mjestu: u kostima. Bol u kostima potencijalni je simptom raka prostate. Nažalost, ljudi s rakom prostate koji osjećaju ovu bol vjerojatno imaju metastatski oblik, što znači da se proširio.

“Kosti zdjelice i kralježnice često su prva područja metastaza raka prostate. Bol u ovim područjima može biti znak mogućeg raka prostate”, navodi urolog dr. Daniel Phillips.

Ljudi koji su godinama živjeli s bolovima u donjem dijelu leđa mogu odbaciti ovaj simptom kao znak raka prostate

Dr. Narayanan kaže da bol u kostima također može biti znak ponovnog pojavljivanja raka prostate kod pacijenata koji već imaju tu bolest. Veza između raka prostate i boli u kostima može biti iznenađujuća, no urolozi imaju objašnjenje.

“Kada stanice raka prostate pokušaju metastazirati (proces kojim se rak širi s izvornog mjesta tumora na druga područja tijela), prvo pokušavaju doći do limfnih čvorova blizu prostate, zdjeličnih limfnih čvorova, a drugo najčešće, do kosti”, objašnjava dr. Narayanan.

Dodaje da stanice također mogu pokušati doći do kostiju, posebno zdjelice i kralježnice/kralježaka. Poziva ljude da što prije potraže liječničku pomoć ako osjete nove bolove u kostima, osobito ako imaju čimbenike rizika za rak prostate. No, zaključuje da ljudi koji su godinama živjeli s bolovima u donjem dijelu leđa, mogu odbaciti ovaj simptom kao znak raka prostate.

Top Features to Consider When Buying a Tea Coffee Machine

Coffee and tea-making machines have become must-haves in Indian homes and offices, combining quick preparation with various drink choices. Purchasing these adaptable devices at the right time is imperative, as their prices are constantly rising. 

This article discusses all the key attributes you should remember when buying a tea-coffee device. With this information, you can make informed decisions that satisfy your convenience, taste, and efficiency. 

Capacity and Size 

1. Right Capacity:  

Choosing the correct capacity for a tea coffee machine is crucial because it largely depends on its intended use. Smaller models can serve individuals, while larger ones are recommended for settings with many people in the house or at the workplace who drink more than two cups daily. Such coffee machines can make large quantities of brew without refilling them frequently. Hence, they work best during peak hours. 

2. Space Considerations:  

Apart from capacity, size is another major factor to be considered when selecting such gadgets. The appliances you choose are supposed to fit within your available space. If you have limited kitchen space or an office pantry that cannot accommodate oversized equipment, you need streamlined units that do not take much counter space. On the other hand, if space is not an issue, you can buy bigger models with extra features. It all depends on your choice. 

Brewing Options 

1. Versatile Nature:  

One of the most attractive factors about modern-day tea coffee machines is their versatility. The best products help users to prepare several types of teas and coffees at the touch of a button. These include traditional drip coffees as well as exotic teas. This variety suits diverse tastes and preferences. Being installed in ideal places like offices can cater to different peoples’ likes and preferences. 

2. Customisable Aspects:  

Many tea coffee makers have features that can be adjusted for better performance. In particular, these machines can regulate brewing intensity, water temperature, or even the size of a cup needed, allowing everyone to make their drinks taste however they want. For instance, some people prefer having mild coffee, while others like more potent brews. This freedom of choice is excellent for individuals who are fussy about how their hot beverages are prepared. 

Speed and Efficiency 

1. Brewing Duration:  

Speed also matters in your coffee maker, especially during morning hours in offices and busy homes. The suitable machine will immediately prepare the perfect hot beverage for you with no loss of flavour or quality experienced. If this process takes too long, especially in offices, it may lead to missing important tasks or meetings due to the delay. 

2. Energy Efficiency:  

The increasing rate of utility bills makes it essential to consider the energy efficiency of appliances. When buying a tea coffee machine, look for models with a five-star energy optimisation rating.  For instance, Godrej has plenty of energy-friendly options available in the market. These machines consume less electricity yet perform at their best capacity while brewing beverages. This investment not only lowers your operational costs but also promotes environmental sustainability. You can see the demand for such machines with an energy-saving mode that minimises power consumption while not in use. 

Ease of Maintenance 

1. Cleaning Convenience:  

The ease of cleaning and maintenance is essential when owning a tea coffee machine. There must be no difficulties in preserving the cleanliness and hygiene of these machines. Buy an appliance that has features to make it easier to clean. Look for washable parts in the coffee machine, as they facilitate a faster cleaning process. Lastly, self-cleaning cycles and removable drip trays also come in handy, minimising your troubles and helping maintain the state of this appliance. 

2. Durability and Warranty:  

The build quality remains critical in determining how long a tea coffee machine will last. Making one using high-quality materials or a solid structure ensures its longevity amid frequent use. Consequently, ensure you have checked on their warranty. The longer it is, the better since the manufacturer has confidence in the durability of their products. Should there be any problem with the vending machine, you can have it repaired quickly. 

Additional Features 

1. Smart Features:  

In an era where innovative technology reigns supreme, numerous tea coffee makers now boast advanced capabilities to enhance the user experience. You may wish to find units that can connect via Bluetooth, enabling remote control even from your phone. Another helpful feature is programmable timers, which allow users to set up specific times when they want their drinks brewed ahead so that they are ready strictly as required. Then, these automated operations with many other appliances around your home or office bring about convenience and control, just like modern home automation systems do. 

2. Aesthetic Design: Tea coffee machines  

should be visually appealing, especially if they are to be placed in prominent areas within your house or office. A well-designed unit can work as decor and still be functional, improving the ambience of your home or office. Check out various styles and colours that match your kitchen or office pantry interior décor, enhancing your space with other appliances. 

Final Word 

When buying a coffee or tea brew machine, one must consider capacity, brewing options, ease of maintenance, innovative technology, and aesthetic appeal. Ensuring that your preferred coffee-making device fits into your daily routine provides more than just functionality. This guide will help you understand all the elements presented to make an informed decision. Choose a tea coffee maker that satisfies your preferences and adds class to your room, ensuring you get the best drinks.

Sedam stvari koje biste trebali znati ako želite udomiti čivavu

RAZMIŠLJATE o udomljavanju najmanjeg psa na svijetu jer vam se sviđa to što neće zauzimati puno mjesta u vašem malom stanu? Čivave su uistinu posebna vrsta i stoga nas ne čudi što postoje ljudi koji ih obožavaju i oni koji s njima radije ne bi imali posla. Ako spadate u prvu skupinu, ovaj bi vam članak mogao pomoći da se konačno odlučite na udomljavanje ovog temperamentnog psa.

Njihovi predci nisu lajali

Vjerujemo da ovo teško možete povezati s vrstom kakvu danas poznajemo. Međutim, čivave potječu iz Meksika, od pasmine koja je bila namijenjena isključivo druženju s vlasnicima. Štoviše, ti su psi bili “nijemi” i nikada nisu neumorno lajali. Današnja je čivava nastala različitim križanjima koja su se događala kroz godine, piše PDSA.

Aktivnost

Čivave su idealni psi za osobe koje ne žele, ne stignu ili ne mogu sate i sate provoditi u šetnji sa svojim psom, a žele vjernog prijatelja. Iako vole biti vani, ne treba im toliko tjelovježbe kao nekim većim pasminama. Bit će potrebno pružiti im pola sata šetnje svaki dan kako bi ostale zdrave i zadovoljne. Naravno, za čivave su preporučene kratke šetnje i sesije igranja kako se ne bi previše umorile.

Nije im potrebno puno njege

Neovisno o tome želite li udomiti kratkodlaku ili dugodlaku čivavu, nećete imati mnogo posla s njom. Kratkodlake čivave četkaju se jednom tjedno, a dugodlake dva ili tri puta tjedno. S obzirom na površinu tijela koju morate počešljati, za to ćete morati izdvojiti svega nekoliko minuta.

Odgovara im obuka temeljena na nagradama

Tijekom treninga potrebna im je dosljednost te čvrsto, ali pravedno postupanje. Čivave mogu biti vrlo svojeglave pa je trening i disciplina od malih nogu neophodna. Nemojte misliti da su ovo jednostavni psi samo zato što njihova veličina ne prelazi dvadeset centimetara. Samopouzdane, ali oprezne, čivave trebaju biti socijalizirane kako bi se izbjegli problemi u ponašanju prema drugim ljudima i životinjama.

Postaju tjeskobne ako su dugo odvojene od vlasnika

S obzirom na to da potječu od pasmine koja se uzgajala isključivo kao pas za društvo, ne čudi što im teško pada razdvajanje. Ne podnose ni kratke periode razdvajanja, pa nisu najbolji ljubimci za osobe koje puno putuju.

Nisu najbolji ljubimac za obitelji s vrlo malom djecom

Iako sve ovisi o određenoj čivavi i postoje obitelji s djecom u koje se pas odlično uklopio, treba imati na umu da ne vole biti nepažljivo podizane. To je nešto što će malo dijete rado napraviti ako ga ne gledate. Zbog toga, bilo bi dobro da s nabavljanjem čivave pričekate dok vaša djeca malo odrastu. Kada govorimo o drugim ljubimcima, posebno onima mnogo većima od njih, morat ćete ih od malih nogu upoznavati s što više njih.

Čivave mogu imati probleme s kukovima

Mnoge čivave imaju problem s displazijom kuka, što znači da zglob kuka psa ne pristaje savršeno, što u konačnici dovodi do artritisa. Prije nego nabavite čivavu, bilo bi dobro da ste sigurni kako su njezini roditelji redovito pregledavani od strane veterinara kako bi se ustanovilo da su zdravi. Potomci zdravih roditelja manje su skloni bilo kakvim bolestima.

‘Kotee’ Trailer: Dhananjaya stars in the film as a commoner with big dreams

Amid a rather dull scenario in the Kannada film industry, there’s an air of anticipation surrounding the release of Kotee, an action-packed family entertainer. The film marks Parameshwar Gundkal’s directorial debut and stars Daali Dhananjaya in the lead role. The makers unveiled the trailer, which offers a glimpse into Dhananjaya’s portrayal of Kotee, a common driver with extraordinary dreams.

His character is fueled by a noble ambition—to accumulate a fortune of one crore rupees through honest means, without deceit or harm, to secure a better future for his family. This narrative strikes a chord with audiences, resonating with the common man’s struggles and aspirations, and includes Ramesh Indira as the antagonist.

Parameshwar Gundkal, a seasoned journalist-turned-TV honcho, brings his storytelling experience to the director’s chair for Kotee. Having previously helmed successful television projects, including Bigg Boss Kannada, Param aims to deliver a content-driven cinematic experience with the film.

Explaining his commitment to providing quality entertainment, the director said that Kotee is a middle-class story that everyone can connect with. Kotee, produced by Jio Studios, brings together an ensemble cast, including Moksha Kushal and a host of versatile actors like Rangayana Raghu, Tara, and Sardar Satya. The film has music by Vasuki Vaibhav, lyrics by Vasuki himself and Yogaraj Bhat, background score by Nobin Paul, and cinematography by Arun Brahma.

On the sidelines of the trailer launch, Dhananjaya also provided insight into the current state of the Kannada film industry and his hopes for its future.

He stated, “I just want to say that it’s just another phase, which the industry should overcome as in the past. Moreover, I pray that the new phase begins with the release of Kotee. The team has done a wonderful job. I’m very sure that the content, which is based on the life of a common man, especially revolving around middle-class families, would appeal to the audience.”

Nutricionistica otkrila koje tri namirnice nikad ne bi pojela

NUTRICIONISTICA Olivia Hedlund objavila je tri kategorije hrane i pića koje sama nikada ne bi konzumirala. Prva stvar na njezinu popisu su pahuljice koje se jedu za doručak.

“Nema nikakve zdravstvene koristi od hrane koja će ujutro naglo podići šećer u krvi”, pojasnila je na Instagramu.

Iako se slaže da postoje “zdravije pahuljice”, tvrdi da čak i njih treba konzumirati kao užinu ili poslasticu uz hranu koja sadrži proteine i masti.

“Većina pahuljica i žitarica puna je šećera, zbog kojeg se ne osjećamo sitima”, dodala je.

Hrana s visokim udjelom ugljikohidrata i šećera, poput mnogih tradicionalnih pahuljica za doručak, probavlja se brže što dovodi do skoka šećera u krvi, ali isto tako i do brzog pada energije te povećanja gladi ubrzo nakon konzumacije.

Na drugom mjestu navela je meso biljnog podrijetla.

“Bolji je izbor meso iz odgovornog uzgoja. Meso je bogato hranjivim tvarima i dobro je za vas ako je nabavljeno iz ispravnog izvora. S druge strane, meso biljnog podrijetla sadrži hrpu hidrogeniziranih i upalnih ulja te punila koja daju okus mesa. Za mene je to veliko ne”, istaknula je.

I na kraju, tu su kave koje se piju u pokretu.

“Ne samo da se kava može upljesniviti, već ima i puno kemikalija koje remete ekosustav cijelog tijela, osobito hormona”, zaključila je.

Heeramandi Season 2 Fashion Expectations: From Authentic Period Looks to Elaborate Costumes, What Can Viewers Expect From Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Web Series

The courtesans of Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar will soon return with season two, and fans can’t stay calm. While the Sanjay Leela Bhansali-period drama received mixed reviews, the announcement of this web-series sequel triggered reactions from internet users. They dropped their expectations from the series in their own cheeky mannerisms. The show’s creator may not have revealed too much in which direction season two will take, but it’s safe to assume that the audience expects a brave new world for the tawaifs of Heeramandi. As far as fashion enthusiasts are concerned, opulent designs, traditional embroideries, period looks and more, the creative genius will be a treat to watch.

Set in the 1940s, the first season focused on three generations of courtesans living in the Heeramandi neighbourhood of Lahore, now in Pakistan. The show captured the essence of a fading era, where courtesans coexist with their impending obsoleteness, finding themselves swept in the whirlpool of India’s freedom movement. Though there is much to say about this poignant narrative, the costumes took centre stage. Blending French and English prints with traditional Indian textiles like brocades, phulkari and jamewar shawls, the outfits had their own story.

‘Heeramandi’ Season 2 Announcement

Confirming the season 2, Bhansali was quoted in reports, saying, “In Heeramandi 2, the women now come from Lahore to the film world. They leave Lahore after the Partition and most of them settle in the Mumbai film industry or Kolkata film industry. So that journey in the bazaar remains the same. They still have to dance and sing, but this time for the producers and not for the nawabs. So that’s the second season we are planning, let’s see where it goes.”

With the announcement of another instalment, fans expect the main to return.

  • Manisha Koirala as Mallikajaan

  • Aditi Rao Hydari as Bibbojaan

  • Sonakshi Sinha as Fareedan

  • Sharmin Segal as Alamzeb

  • Sanjeeda Sheikh as Waheeda, a courtesan and Mallika’s sister

Sanjay Leela Bhansali has worked with designers of repute—whether Sabyasachi or Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla. For the first season, costume designers Rimple and Harpreet Narula were tasked with creating 300 outfits over two years. The couple drew inspiration from archival textiles, vintage prints, patterns and crafts with zardozi, gota-patti, hand-block printing and more. While we would love to see more of the designer duo’s opulent creations, it will be interesting to see who else Bhansali brings to the forefront for the second instalment.

The characters in season 1 of the show were seen wearing elaborate lehengas, Anarkali sets, and ghararas, while the men wore kurta pajamas, sherwanis, and bandhgalas. What made the costumes iconic was the references. For instance, during Sonakshi Sinha’s jazz number, the actress was draped in a shimmery saree with sequins in over 40 different shades of blush pink. Her blouse was inspired by Pietra Dura inlay art, a craft that flourished in Italy and came to India during the Mughal era. With the detailed story-telling through costumes, we surely expect more period looks with intricate embroidery century-old references.

Sarees

Sonakshi’s sarees in the series indeed had a moment, symbolising a cultural link. While announcing the second season, the filmmaker noted the series’ theme, with women from Lahore joining the Indian film industry. Considering that, we can expect more retro saree looks from the show. Fabrics usually used during the 1950s to 1970s were silk or chiffon with intricate embroidery and embellishment.

 

Earlier, a Pakistani viewer pointed out the historical inaccuracies in the period drama series. From geography to songs, it also included costumes. The thread featured a black and white picture that showed women dressed in traditional salwar kameez and minimal jewellery. It will be interesting to see if the show can incorporate such designs in the next season.

Elaborate Costumes

A Bhansali creation is incomplete without elaborate costumes. The costumes we saw in the first season were nothing short of creative brilliance. For instance, Aditi Rao Hydari’s mustard sharara in the ‘Sakal Ban’ song was handpainted, a fabric that was immensely valued at the time. In fact, the outfits in shades of yellow and mustard for the song were cohesive yet distinctive. The second season, too, is expected to feature enchanting ensembles embodied in intricate embroidered fabrics.

Tawaifs were pillars of art, culture, and aesthetics in India’s rich history. These women were known for not just their grace but also their intellect, artistic prowess, and influence, commanding respect within the elite circles of society. With the announcement of ‘Heeramandi Season 2’, fashion enthusiasts once again are excited to be transported into a world where every stitch, embellishment, and moment tells a tale of opulence, passion, and strength.

Kažu da za ove pse treba imati čelične živce. Pitali smo vlasnike je li to istina

JACK Russell terijeri svoje nasljeđe dijele s Parson Russell terijerima. Obje pasmine prvenstveno su uzgojene kao lovački psi u uzgajivačnici velečasnog Johna ‘The Sporting Parson’ Russella, još u devetnaestom stoljeću. Uzgajani su tako da budu iznimno brzi kako bi trčali uz bok drugim, većim lovačkim psima.

Ovo je pasmina o kojoj se često govori da nije za svakoga, osobito za početnike, jer zahtijeva čvrstu ruku i veliku posvećenost. Jack Russell terijere opisuje se kao pse koje odlikuju snažna volja, živahnost, tvrdoglavost, želja za dominacijom i izuzetna potreba za aktivnošću. Dakle, nikako nije pas za one koji vrijeme najviše vole provoditi u kući, sklupčani ispod dekice. Ako ste takva osoba, bilo bi najbolje da zaobiđete ovu pasminu.

Iako ga se možda ne preporučuje kao idealnog obiteljskog psa, on to svakako može postati. Vjeran je i zaštitnički nastrojen prema svojoj obitelji, ali kada su u pitanju mala djeca, potrebno je biti oprezan. Starija djeca koja znaju da se psa ne smije vući za rep ili uznemiravati na neki drugi način, u njemu će sigurno pronaći razigranog prijatelja.

Čelični živci nešto su što vlasnik ovog psa mora imati, tvrde mnogi. Da bismo saznali je li to uistinu tako ili se pretjeruje, razgovarali smo s dva vlasnika Jack Russell terijera.

Uz pravi odgoj, ovaj pas će biti vaš idealan životni suputnik

Naš prvi sugovornik, Branko Kovačević, vlasnik je dva Jack Russell terijera: trogodišnjeg Jackieja i osmomjesečne Shive. Jedna od prvih stvari koju je Branko naglasio jest to da smatra kako je mnogo toga negativnog što se govori o ovoj pasmini neistina. Naime, smatra da ponašanje svakog psa, pa tako i Jack Russell terijera, uvelike ovisi o tome kakav je njegov vlasnik.

“Ako pas dođe u krive ruke, može biti jako agresivan i nervozan. U rukama osobe koja zna što radi i kako se treba ponašati prema psu, Jack Russell terijer bit će ljubimac za poželjeti”, kaže nam Kovačević.

Pojasnio je da svatko tko planira uzeti Jack Russell terijera za svog ljubimca, mora biti svjestan njegovog porijekla budući da se radi o lovačkom psu koji nikako neće biti zadovoljan jednostavnom šetnjom oko zgrade. Ovoj je pasmini nužno osigurati veliku fizičku i psihičku aktivnost baš svaki dan. Također, potrebno ga je dresirati i postaviti mu granice od prvog dana usvajanja kako biste dobili psa koji će biti dobar ljubimac.

“Svoje pse izvodim u šetnju minimalno tri puta na dan te uvijek napravimo rutu dugu barem pet kilometara. U slučaju da određeni dan nemam vremena za ovako duge šetnje, igramo se s lopticom koju im bacam, a oni je neumorno vraćaju i nose u ustima. Ponekad se od ove vrste igre umore već za 15 minuta pa kada dođemo kući, spavaju naredna dva sata”, kaže Branko.

Što se tiče higijene, rekao nam je da njegovim psima dlaka stalno opada, ali najveći problem je u travnju kada se to događa pojačano. Rekao nam je da ih četka isključivo gumenom četkom jer nijedna druga četka ne može izvući sve zaostale dlake. Shivu i Jackieja kupa jednom mjesečno, ali zato posebnu pažnju posvećuje njihovim noktima koji jako brzo rastu, pa ih je potrebno često skraćivati kako ne bi došlo do zdravstvenih tegoba, kao što su deformacije nogu.

“Jack Russell terijere preporučio bih aktivnim ljudima koji vole planinariti, šetati i baviti se sportom. Ovo je pas kojim se morate baviti i koji zahtijeva veliku fizičku spremnost svog vlasnika. Zbog toga ga nikako ne bih preporučio starijim ljudima. Mislim da bi za njih bio previše zahtjevan i živahan”, rekao nam je Kovačević kada smo ga pitali kome preporučuje pasminu.

Jack Russell terijeri su iznimno društveni psi

Naša druga sugovornica, Nensi Magašić Špehar, najprije nam je ispričala da su je, prije nego što je uzela Jack Russell terijerku Nalu za svoju ljubimicu, mnogi odgovarali od te ideje. Spomenula je da su neki od komentara bili da nikako ne uzima ovu pasminu jer je hiperaktivna i zahtjevna. Rečeno joj je da nikada neće imati svoj mir, da će pas uništavati sve do čega će moći doći te da će neprestano morati biti s njim na otvorenom.

“Uglavnom, čuli smo dosta negativnih stvari. Ljudi su se odmaknuli od ideje da uzmemo Jack Russell terijera”, kaže nam Nensi.

Naglašava da joj Nala nikada ne testira živce, iako je još uvijek štene. Jedino čega se može sjetiti jest to da je Nala jednom prilikom srušila teglu za cvijeće i izgrizla plastične natikače. Kaže nam da ju svi u obitelji obožavaju baš zbog njezine zaigranosti: “Baš je onakav pas kakvog smo željeli! Vesela je, znatiželjna i zaigrana, ali jako mazna i željna našeg društva.”

Na naše pitanje bi li ovu pasminu preporučila ljudima s djecom, odgovara s jasnim da. Ispričala nam je kako se Nala posebno veseli njihovoj maloj kćeri, ali i njezinim prijateljima kada se dođu igrati. Odlično se ponaša i prema drugim psima, malima i velikima.

Zaigran i aktivan pas kojeg bismo poželjeli za ljubimca

Iz našeg razgovora sa sugovornicima možemo samo zaključiti da se radi o divnoj pasmini kojoj je potreban pravodoban odgoj.

Uskoro stiže u prodaju ograničeno izdanje parfema Chanel Drop

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

U PROLJEĆE 1952. godine tada 26-godišnja Marilyn Monroe našla se na naslovnici Timea za koji je podijelila priču koja i danas odzvanja u svijetu ljepote. Na pitanje što nosi kada ide na spavanje odgovorila je duhovito: “Samo Chanel No 5.”

U to doba nije bilo uobičajeno da slavne osobe javno dijele detalje svojih privatnih rutina. No Marilynin odgovor izazvao je pravu senzaciju i značajno povećao prodaju ovog parfema. Sedam desetljeća kasnije povezanost između Marilyn Monroe i Chanela i dalje je snažna, a pariška modna kuća predstavila je novu, ograničenu seriju bočica inspiriranu njezinom izjavom.

Drop

Iako je Marilyn nosila originalni miris No 5, nova bočica nazvana Drop punjena je verzijom No 5 L’Eau iz 2016. godine. Olivier Polge, parfumer u Chanelu, kreirao je L’Eau kao svježiju i ležerniju inačicu originalnog No 5, usredotočujući se na ključne esencije kao što su jasmin, ruža i ylang-ylang, uz dodatak nota citrusa i cedra, piše Vogue. 

Miris će biti pušten u prodaju 13. lipnja

Sylvie Legastelois, voditeljica dizajna i pakiranja u Chanelu, opisuje novu, kolekcionarsku bočicu kao remek-djelo staklarstva. Navodno je oblik izvorne bočice parfema No 5 bio inspiriran dekanterom za viski koji je Coco Chanel ugledala u domu svog ljubavnika Arthura Edwarda Capela, poznatog i po nadimku Boy.

No, izjava Marilyn Monroe i svježi miris L’Eau nagnali su Legastelois na stvaranje nečeg potpuno novog. Inspirirana tom pričom, odlučila je dizajnirati predmet koji podsjeća na legendarnu kap parfema. Kako Legastelois kaže, sada je miris “obavijen kapljicom stakla”.

“Potrebna je samo kap”, zaključuje Legastelois, sugerirajući da je i najmanja količina ovog slavnog mirisa dovoljna da probudi osjećaj luksuza i elegancije. Novi miris će se naći u prodaji od 13.lipnja na chanel.com.

‘I won’t abandon directing,’ says Ramesh Indira

Having faced the camera for over six films, did Ramesh ever envision himself as an actor? “Even now, I have a penchant for writing and directing. But certain circumstances and reasons made me step in front of the camera. My role in Hemanth M Rao’s Sapta Sagaradaache Ello came about unexpectedly when he spotted me at an award function. He remembered a small part I played in my directorial venture, Premier Padmini, and believed I could embody the character he had in mind for his film.

On the other hand, Param and I go way back; in 2009, we collaborated on the small screen, although we lost touch when he switched channels. Despite the lack of regular communication, he remembered a serial I acted in back in 2010, and that’s how he approached me for Kotee and the character came about,” he explains while adding, “In fact, I was told the director insisted that I play the role, which was good to know.”

Describing his character Dinakar Sampaje, aka Deenu Saavakar, in Kotee, Ramesh explains, “While my role as the antagonist in Sapta Sagaradaache Ello was woven into the storyline, bridging Rakshit Shetty and Rukmini Vasanth, Kotee takes it a step further. Here, the character is integral to the plot but also carries commercial appeal. Director Param has magnified the villain’s role to be on par with the hero. Additionally, I have an individual antagonist storyline that runs parallel to the main narrative,” he says.

According to Ramesh, in today’s cinema, villains command as much attention and influence as the heroes. “Gone are the days when the hero solely carried the weight of the entire film. We all know that even in the toughest scenarios, audiences anticipate the hero’s triumph. The strength of the antagonist only serves to enhance the hero’s journey. In today’s cinema, villains engage in psychological warfare alongside physical confrontations. It’s the narrative and creativity that blend with the story,” says Ramesh, mentioning that he was a newcomer to the Kotee sets for everyone. “I had more scenes with Dhananjaya, and we pulled it off smoothly.”

With acting assignments taking precedence, does his directing career take a backseat? “After Premier Padmini, I had plans for a sequel, but unfortunately, Covid happened. Then, I had to focus on specific serials, and there was also a hotel business, managed by Shruti Naidu, for me to overlook. However, alongside the Premier Padmini sequel, I was also involved in another project starring Pramod, and we shot for five days. I aim to complete the shooting of that film this year.”

Ramesh Indira’s slate of upcoming films also includes Karavalli, starring Prajwal Devaraj and directed by Gurudatha Ganiga, and two finalised Tamil projects. However, he signs off by saying, “I won’t abandon direction. I’m determined to finish the pending commitment, continue to helm more projects and stay true to my directorial passion.”

Četiri simptoma bolesti koja se smatra tihim ubojicom mogu se uočiti na nogama

VISOKI kolesterol često je stanje bez simptoma, ali potencijalno smrtonosno, zbog čega je dobio titulu “tihog ubojice”. Većina ljudi neće saznati da imaju visok kolesterol sve dok ne prođu hitnu medicinsku pomoć. Dakle, ako imamo visok kolesterol, što je medicinski poznato kao hiperkolesterolemija, to znači da u krvi imamo previše masne tvari koja se zove kolesterol.

Iako to u početku možda neće uzrokovati probleme, s vremenom može povećati rizik od brojnih ozbiljnih zdravstvenih problema, kao što su srčani i moždani udar. Kolesterol se može nakupljati u arterijama, što dovodi do začepljenja, sprječavajući prolaz krvi. Također je glavni čimbenik rizika za kardiovaskularne bolesti koje su vodeći uzrok smrti diljem svijeta, uzrokujući gotovo 18 milijuna smrti godišnje, prema podacima Svjetske zdravstvene organizacije.

Nacionalna zdravstvena služba (NHS) upozorava da visoki kolesterol obično ne uzrokuje simptome, izvještava Daily Express. Dakle, možemo saznati da ga imamo tek nakon što obavimo krvne pretrage.

Neki se simptomi mogu pojaviti na nogama

Iako stanje obično ne uzrokuje simptome, postoji nekoliko znakova koji bi mogli spasiti život ako se rano uoče. Jedan od znakova može biti razvoj stanja koje se naziva periferna arterijska bolest (PAD) – stanje u kojem nakupljanje masnih naslaga u arterijama ograničava dotok krvi u mišiće nogu.

Ipak, bolest nažalost ne pokazuje uvijek simptome, no može uzrokovati znakove koji se pojavljuju na stopalima. Ti znakovi, prema istraživanju NHS-a, uključuju:

  1. Utrnulost ili slabost u nogama.
  2. Gubitak dlaka na stopalima.
  3. Lomljivi i spor rast noktiju na stopalima.
  4. Čirevi na stopalima koji ne zacjeljuju.

Simptomi PAD-a često se razvijaju polako, ali mogu se pojaviti brzo ili se “iznenada” pogoršati, što može biti znak ozbiljnog problema koji zahtijeva hitno liječenje. Osim toga, jedan od najčešćih znakova PAD-a može se pojaviti tijekom hodanja. NHS ističe da će neki ljudi osjetiti bol u nogama dok hodaju.

Bol može varirati od blage do jake i obično nestaje nakon nekoliko minuta odmora. Često su zahvaćene obje noge u isto vrijeme, iako bol može biti jača u jednoj nozi. Dakle, ako smo zabrinuti zbog razine kolesterola, trebali bismo razgovarati s liječnikom.

Mogu li ljubimci biti članovi obitelji? Glas Koncila: Možemo ih voljeti, ali…

BROJ vlasnika kućnih ljubimaca u svijetu, pa tako i u Hrvatskoj, raste. Prema posljednjim podacima Hrvati su u posljednje dvije godine kupili ili udomili više od 120.000 pasa. Oni su preferirani kućni ljubimac i posjeduje ih 41 posto populacije, dok je mačku za kućnog ljubimca odabralo 29 posto građana.

Jedna čitateljica nam je javila da je njezino dijete na satu Vjeronauka dobilo zadatak nacrtati vlastitu obitelj. Nakon što je vjeroučitelj na crtežu vidio i psa, rekao je djetetu da je to krivo jer “pas nije obitelj te ne može biti nacrtan uz obitelj”. Istina je da mnogi svoje kućne ljubimce smatraju članovima obitelji, pa je čitateljica Glasa Koncila upitala je li to pretjerano.

“Ne mogu ne pisati vam, jer sam se u posljednje vrijeme više puta susrela s situacijom da pojedini moji poznanici – koji su usto i vjernici – svoje kućne ljubimce doživljavaju kao vlastitu djecu. Kućni ljubimci uživaju status kao djeca. Jasno mi je da se kućni ljubimci vole, no je li previše smatrati ih i držati kao članove obitelji?” pitala je ona hrvatski katolički tjednik.

Prema odgovoru koji je dobila, “životinje se mogu voljeti, ali im se ne mogu pridavati osjećaji koji se duguju samo osobama”.

“Pitanju odnosa prema kućnim ljubimcima, očito je, vraćat ćemo se često, jer ih sve više ima i sve više ljudi ih prihvaća u svojim domovima. Već smo objasnili da je Bog stvorio i čovjeka i životinje, ali oni nisu ontološki isti i životinje nemaju ljudsku dušu, koju je svojim utjelovljenjem uzeo i Isus”, napisali su.

“Katekizam Katoličke crkve uči da su životinje Božji stvorovi, da ih Bog okružuje svojom providnošću i da ga one blagoslivljaju i slave samim svojim postojanjem (br. 2416). Od ljudi se traži da prema njima budu dobrohotni, dajući nam primjer nježnoga odnosa prema njima kakav su imali sveti Franjo Asiški ili sveti Filip Neri”, nastavljaju iz Glasa Koncila.

“U broju 2418 navodi se da se životinje mogu voljeti, ali im se ne mogu davati osjećaji koji se duguju samo osobama, pa je o tome dobro voditi računa kada govorimo o kućnim ljubimcima”, zaključuju.

> Papa: Ljudi koji imaju kućne ljubimce umjesto djece su sebični

Mint Explainer: Why tablets have failed to do what they promised—kill basic laptops

But this said claim hasn’t quite worked out. A Mint poll of four analysts, based on market researcher IDC India’s 2023 annual PC shipments data, estimated around 1.2 million tablets to have been shipped last year. This figure has remained stagnant—even as laptops saw a boost driven by the covid-19 pandemic’s work-from-home era.

Why, though, did the claims not work out? Is there still time, or have tablets decidedly failed to do what they promised—take over the segment of mainstream laptops? Mint decodes.

First, was this the tablet’s main claim?

This can be subjective. The primary claim of tablets was a larger display that could boost various entertainment and productivity use-cases. Over the years, companies such as Apple, Google, Lenovo and Samsung figured there was an opportunity to create slim devices that could replace the mainstream personal computer.

This largely became possible as mobile chipsets, which offer the performance inside, became more powerful—thus enabling a wider variety of tasks to be performed. Cooling systems also became more streamlined, which meant that a slim device could hold enough power to run desktop PC-grade software.

The first example of such a hybrid experience in the mainstream consumer electronics industry was the Microsoft Surface—a tablet that ran a limited edition of the Windows 8 desktop operating system.

What is Apple’s claim?

During its 7 May product launch, Apple not only unveiled the iPad Pro with a new processor, but also a keyboard attachment and a new stylus with haptic feedback. According to the company, this ensemble made Apple’s flagship tablet “just as good as a MacBook”. 

The claim mirrored Apple’s attempts to place its top-drawer iPads as potential laptop killers—because of which the company has even segregated the iPadOS operating system since 2019, and launched keyboard covers with trackpads, and more. 

This has only grown further this year with improvements to the products, although Apple’s laptop replacement claims were reserved only for its Pro tablets.

Apple’s strategy has been to create a single ecosystem where every device works with each other. One of its features, called ‘Universal Control’, lets users control a tablet from a MacBook laptop. With each of these features, Apple maintains that an iPad isn’t quite a ‘replacement’ for a MacBook—but a companion.

But industry experts observe that the ‘companion’ strategy may not quite have worked. In the past three quarters, Apple has reported consecutive year-on-year sales declines of 10%, 15% and 16% respectively for the iPad globally. This shows that there clearly is a problem.

Why are brands trying to merge tablets and laptops?

For long, industry consultants have noted a strategic market gap. Entry-level laptops are typically bulkier, or come with basic performance chops. Tablets, once paired with a keyboard and trackpad, could have been the solution here—with a slim profile and capable processing power. 

A more premium-end use case has already been seen with convertible laptops, which use desktop-grade chips and levy a premium due to design. If this model is successfully copied at scale in the entry-level price ranges, the consumer PC space could go through a considerable shake-up. Over the past decade, this is why brands have tried to build this narrative.

Also, with the advent of artificial intelligence, multimodal has become key. Tablets are inherently well-designed to support inputs through a full-sized physical keyboard, a touchscreen, a stylus, voice or even gestures. Going forward, being able to do so could be crucial.

Have other brands also made similar claims?

Samsung’s ‘Dex’ mode offered a merged vision for any mobile form factor to work as a laptop replacement, thanks to software smarts and external keyboards or mice. But Dex was a mode, which meant that it wasn’t a specific innovation that changed how tablets worked. As with every software innovation, there is a clear roadblock that if developer support does not build up, the software ecosystem fails. So far, Dex hasn’t exactly taken off.

Microsoft’s Surface line, too, offers a similar experience, but the devices are better known as convertible laptops since they run on desktop-grade processors and software. The company has of late segregated laptops and tablets with a new ‘Surface Laptop’ lineup. But Microsoft’s devices have struggled to attract mainstream popularity, especially in India—which is a highly value-sensitive market.

Google, too, created a big push for tablet adaptability with ‘desktop mode’ on one of the world’s most recognisable browsers, Chrome. However, while some pages do load well, the feature isn’t universally seamless.

So what are the key issues?

The biggest roadblock has been software innovation. Most tablet-laptop hybrid form factor innovation started from the top-down, meaning that only the premium-end benefitted. We’re yet to see a sweet middle spot in software design that would work for both tablets and laptops. Apple’s iPadOS comes close, but is inherently closer to iOS than MacOS, which is meant for desktop PCs.

This has put buyers away from replacing their laptops with tablets. Concerns have also remained regarding longevity—mobile devices are typically seen to have shorter life cycles than desktop-class ones. Tablets are not immune from this, and brands haven’t alleviated this concern as yet.

Pricing, meanwhile, is a big challenge. For instance, Apple’s new MacBook-rivalling iPad Pro is priced upward of ₹100,000—a figure that is too steep if one is to think of tablets replacing mainstream work and study laptops. Apple’s own MacBook Air, with retailer and bank discounts, currently sells in India at around the same price. And given that the latter runs on Apple’s full-scale MacOS, it’s hard to recommend to a mainstream user.

Do tablets really have a big future?

Barring a one-time fillip from the covid-19 pandemic, the tablet market has been shrinking, or remained stagnant at best. The Mint poll of four analysts estimated that tablet shipments dropped 12% last year, and could drop even further.

Despite the weakness, though, tablets may not entirely die out. Budget tablets find use cases in rural education initiatives, or government divisions for various purposes. This might give select brands a good-enough reason to consider innovating with tablet software interfaces. With hardware already supporting the tablet/laptop hybrid form factors, user interface innovation can bridge the gap between entry-level laptops and tablets.

National award-winning director Mansore eyes Hindi remake of ‘Act 1978’

National award-winning director Mansore is currently in talks about a potential Hindi remake of his Kannada film Act 1978. While the specifics of the project are still unknown, Mansore plans to lead it with a fresh ensemble and crew to ensure that the adaptation resonates with the cultural intricacies of Hindi-speaking viewers.

The rights for the remake were bought by producer Neeraj Tiwari, who is set to back the endeavour alongside two other projects, Lopamudra and Postman.

The Hindi reinterpretation of Act 1978 is scheduled to go on floors this year. Originally released in 2020, Act 1978 narrates the tale of a pregnant woman who bravely charts her course to challenge bureaucratic injustices.

The film garnered critical acclaim for its gripping narrative and good performances, heightening anticipation for its potential Hindi adaptation. The cast for the original film included Yagna Shetty, Sanchari Vijay, Shruthi, B Suresha, Pramod Shetty, Achyuth Kumar, and Dattanna. “We’re on the lookout for a talented actor who can authentically convey the depth of our story, as it carries a potent societal message,” says producer Tiwari.

The director’s vision for the remake is to preserve the original narrative’s essence while bringing a fresh creative angle to the table for the Hindi version.

How is the TikTok ADS Library different from other ad libraries?

TikTok ADS Library different from other ad libraries

TikTok’s Ad Library offers a wealth of information about the ads that run on the platform. Users can analyze competitors’ visuals, ad copy, target audiences, and other factors to get insights. Ads are categorized into two primary types: Spark and Non-Spark. Spark ads use native TikTok content and blend seamlessly with organic posts.

The Tiktok ADS Library allows marketers to create ad content quickly and easily. Advertisers can choose from premade templates, such as product showcases and unboxing videos, or use their own footage. They can also add text overlays and music to their ads. The AI-generated script automatically selects royalty-free music optimized for the ad’s content and pacing.

When using the AI ad creative tool, advertisers can view performance metrics such as Reach, CTR, and 6s video view rate. These metrics help them determine which ad strategies and creative ideas are working best. Additionally, they can find inspiration and ideation from ads created by competitors. Ads can be filtered by country and industry to further narrow down the results. They can also be sorted by vertical and region to see which ads are reaching the most users. Advertisers can also search for specific keywords to discover the words that are driving traffic and generating engagement.

How is the TikTok ADS Library different from other ad libraries?

Among the most popular TikTok ads, many of them appear to be in the 10 – 30 second range. This suggests that shorter ad durations may be more effective for TikTok ads than longer ones. Moreover, advertisers can use the AI ad creative tool to study their competitors’ ads and identify the marketing tactics that are driving growth for their business. This will allow them to make better informed advertising decisions in the future.

TikTok’s Ad Library, formerly known as Top Ads, is a powerful tool that allows marketers to view the highest performing ads on the platform. This feature can help improve campaign performance by revealing what creatives work and what ideas don’t. This way, marketers can maximize their reach and ROI.

The AI Video Editor features a number of search filters, including ‘Ad Type’, ‘Region’ and ‘Industry’, to help marketers find the right content for their campaigns. This allows them to see how other companies are using TikTok to reach their target audiences, and then use those strategies in their own ads. The Ads Library also displays the main parameters used to target ads, such as age and gender. This can help marketers understand the algorithm better and optimize their campaigns to improve results.

The Ads Library also allows users to compare the effectiveness of different ad types, such as video ads and carousels. This can be helpful in identifying what works best for their brand and improving their ad creation process. For example, the top-performing ads tend to be between 10 and 30 seconds in length, which may indicate that shorter videos are more effective for attracting attention. Similarly, most high-performing ads incorporate a call-to-action that is relevant to the audience.

The ability to add text overlays is a key feature for creating effective TikTok ads. It allows you to use contrasting colors and add drop shadows to make your text pop. You can also synchronize your text with the speech or music beats of your video to capture viewers’ attention and enhance the impact of your message.

The TikTok Ad Library offers a wealth of information about advertising campaigns on the platform. You can search and analyze ads by region, campaign objectives, and other details to see how they perform. This can help you understand what is working and identify areas for improvement in your own campaign strategy. TikTok ads are highly effective at generating brand awareness and increasing sales. They often include a clear call to action and compelling visuals that resonate with audiences. They also create a sense of urgency by using a limited number of seconds to drive viewer action.

The TikTok Ad Library offers countless examples of top-performing ads that can inspire your own campaign ideas. The library also contains tips and best practices for ad creation, including how to use storytelling techniques to establish a connection with your audience. Ads that evoke emotion are more likely to attract and retain viewer interest, so it’s important to use storytelling tools like humor or tugging at heartstrings.

TikTok’s Ad Library is a great resource to learn from other marketers’ successes. It offers a wealth of data and insights into ad performance metrics, audience engagement, and creative techniques. Using this information, brands can optimize their own campaigns and achieve better results.

The library features a search bar where users can filter ads by country, industry, and objective. They can also select a specific keyword and view the performance of each ad against that metric. This provides valuable insight into the effectiveness of a particular ad, and helps marketers identify ad elements that resonate with their audiences. Additionally, the library includes a Commercial Music Library that allows users to dive into tunes aligning with TikTok’s guidelines and elevate their ad game without worrying about copyright infringements. Unlike Spotify, TikTok doesn’t restrict the use of commercial music in their platform, so this is a major benefit for marketers.

The MagicBrief TikTok Ad Library enables brands to create and edit captivating video ads on the platform. Its intuitive interface makes it easy for marketers to develop engaging content that resonates with their audiences. Moreover, the app’s features facilitate collaborative campaign planning and empower teams to create effective ad strategies. Register today to get started!

Sundaram Mutual launches business cycle fund

Sundaram Mutual believes the froth in the market is yet to settle after the dramatic fall of 6 per cent post the unexpected election outcome and subsequent bounceback of 3 per cent on Wednesday.

Anand Radhakrishnan, CEO, Sundaram Mutual said some of the sectors such as infrastructure and capital goods have run-up in the last few years and this has been toned down a bit but the valuation of the market still remains elevated.

Given the growing uncertainty, mutual fund investors should tone down their expectations and stay focused on inflation-beating returns from their equity investments, he added, while launching one-of-its-kind thematic fund on business cycle, which opened for subscription on Wednesday and will close on July 1.

  • Also read: Sundaram’s Multi-Asset Allocation Fund garners ₹1,890 crore

The fund invests in four broad themes – Make in India, urbanisation, sustainability and technology – which is abbreviated as MUST. It will make dynamic allocation across sectors and market-cap with the freedom to include and exclude new themes.

Sunil Subramaniam, Managing Director, Sundaram Mutual said themes are driven by broader macroeconomic trends such as technology and innovation, government policy and spending, urbanisation, formalisation and premiumisation and can outperform broader markets. “Our fund will follow a dynamic, thematic approach to identify and capitalise on 4-5 emerging medium- to long-term mega global and local trends at inflexion points across sectors,” he said.

Benchmarked against Nifty 500 TRI, Sundaram Business Cycle Fund will invest in a portfolio of 35-45 stocks across sectors and market capitalisation. It will remain market cap and sector-agnostic with its focus only on high potential opportunities to harness key themes.

It will invest a minimum of 80 per cent in equity and related instruments chosen based on the business cycle, 0-20 per cent in other equity and related instruments, debt and money market securities and 0-10 per cent in units of REITs and InvITs.

Mlada mama otkrila kako se riješila trudničkog trbuščića: Trebalo mi je šest mjeseci

NAKON što je rodila, Ruby Venegas bila je nezadovoljna svojim izgledom. 24-godišnjakinja se nije mogla samo tako vratiti na staro i morala je pažljivo birati koju će aktivnost odabrati zbog dijastaze trbušnih mišića, stanja koje se ponekad javlja kod žena nakon porođaja. Naime, prilikom pretjeranog rastezanja trbuha, može doći do rastezanja ravnih mišića u stranu, kao i do slabljenja i stanjenja vezivne opne koja se nalazi između njih.

Zbog toga neke žene godinama nakon porođaja ne mogu se riješiti trbuščića, a čak i neumorni treninzi ne moraju polučiti željene rezultate. U to se uvjerila i Venegas koja je prvo krenula u teretanu. Međutim, prave rezultate ostvarila je tek nakon što se okrenula pilatesu, treningu koji jača mišiće i poboljšava fleksibilnost.

Kako tvrdi, dizanje utega i hodanje 10.000 koraka dnevno pomogli su joj da s 94 padne na 76 kilograma. No, uz treninge pilatesa, koje je radila sama kod kuće, skinula je dodatnih 17 kilograma i došla do željenih 59 kilograma.

“Izgledam bolje nego prije trudnoće”, izjavila je za Newsweek.

Venegas je u veljači na TikToku podijelila video u kojem je pokazala šestomjesečnu transformaciju koju duguje pilatesu.

“Nakon što sam rodila, bila sam tužna zbog obješenog trbuha. Kad sam otkrila pilates, moj se život promijenio. Otada nisam zakoračila u teretanu”, tvrdi.

Pilates je bio ključan u preoblikovanju njezina tijela, poboljšanju zdravlja i postizanju vitkijeg i zategnutijeg tijela.

“Pilates je pomogao da se sve vrati na svoje mjesto. Osjećam se bolje nego ikad. Zdrava sam i imam utegnuto tijelo. Kao mama, imam puno energije, a vježbe koje izvodim uklapaju se u vrijeme kad beba spava”, zaključila je.

Pilates je osmislio Joseph Pilates prije više od 100 godina. Uključuje male, kontrolirane pokrete, a mnogi se izvode u ležećem položaju. Naglasak je na disanju. Odličan je za one koji su u formi, ali i dovoljno nježan da je siguran za trudnice ili osobe koje pate od bolova u leđima.

Dječak je stao kako bi zagrlio napuštenog psa na ulici

MALENI Ibrahim iz Čečenije oduševio je svijet kada je snimka na kojoj grli psa na ulici postala viralna. Krenuvši u školu, dječak je ugledao nekoliko pasa lutalica koji su ležali na putu. Umjesto da ih ignorira i samo nastavi svojim putem, Ibrahim je zastao kako bi ih zagrlio.

Dva su psa očito uživala u njegovoj pažnji, pa su mu dopustila da ih zagrli i mazi. Bili su potpuno mirni i veoma prijateljski nastrojeni prema dječaku, pa se on vratio da ih zagrli još jednom. Dječak nije imao pojma da ga netko snima, no njegov prekrasan čin ugledao je i snimio jedan od stanara obližnje zgrade. Ibrahimova nesebičnost i čista djetinja ljubav za sva živa bića osvojila je srca gledatelja. Zbog ovakve djece svijet je još uvijek lijepo mjesto.

NBA Finals 2024: Schedule, Prediction, Live Streaming and All You Need to Know

The NBA 2023-24 season is into its final seven games with the first team to win four matches will be crowned NBA 2024 Champion. League’s top team Boston Celtics will take on the back-court duo of Dallas Mavericks. Check out the schedule, live streaming, teams and prediction of NBA finals. After an 82-game regular season and three tough seven-game series in the postseason, the Dallas Mavericks and Boston Celtics have made it to the NBA Finals. Rohit Sharma Names Michael Jordan As His Favourite, Says Loves Watching LeBron James, Steph Curry As He Poses With NBA Championship Trophy at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium Ahead of ICC T20 World Cup 2024 (Watch Video).

This would be one of those rarer occasions when neither NBA Finalist has a regular-season MVP on the books, yet the teams in the final series of the season seem a perfect fit. Let us examine their roster and playing style while assessing their chances of winning the NBA Finals 2024.

NBA Finals 2024 Teams and Predictions

Boston Celtics and Dallas Mavericks will play in the NBA Finals 2024, winning the respective conferences. Boston Celtics defeated the Indiana Pacers, Cleveland Cavaliers and Miami Heat to reach the NBA Finals while Dallas Mavericks had a bit tougher route to the finals with Western Conference top-seed Oklahoma City Thunder, star-studded Los Angeles Clippers, and in-form Minnesota Timberwolves in the competition for the conference title.

One thing that made the routes to the final clear is that the clinical Boston Celtics wrapped up their series early and were able to dominate the play with their defences. Dallas, on the other hand, had to rely on plays made by their star duo Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic. Check out the complete starting five of the finalist teams,

Boston Celtics Starting 5: Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, Al Horford, Jrew Holiday and Darrick White

Dallas Mavericks Starting 5: Kyrie Irving, Luka Doncic, PJ Washington, Derrick Jones Jr. and Daniel Gafford  NBA Playoffs 2024: Jrue Holiday Pulls Up Clutch as Boston Celtics Complete 18-Point Comeback to Take 3-0 Lead Over Indiana Pacers in Eastern Conference Finals

With players like Tim Hardaway Jr and Maxi Kleber coming back in the line-up, it could be a major boost for Jason Kidd, who is an offensive-minded coach and loves to unearth the capabilities of back-court players. The exact opposite can be seen in Joe Mazzulla’s strategies – who love to play defence and score on the break with Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum and Darrick White going for the baskets. Given the depth of the Boston Celtics side and also bag(s) of tricks from the Kyrie-Luka pair it is expected to be an exciting match-up. But with experience of finals and quality on the court, we can expect the Celtics to win this battle and set the record for most NBA titles (18). Check out schedule of the matches.

Ajay Devgn starrer ‘Maidaan’ now streaming on OTT

Ajay Devgn headliner sports-drama Maidaan is now streaming on Amazon Prime Video, the makers announced via a press release on Wednesday. Also featuring Priyamani and Gajraj Rao, the film was helmed by Amit Sharma (Badhaai Ho, 2018). It released in theatres on April 10 to mixed reviews and couldn’t leave much of an impact at the box office.

The film chronicles the inspiring journey of Syed Abdul Rahim, the legendary football coach who steered the Indian National Football team to glory in the 1950s and 1960s. Set against the backdrop of a newly independent India, the film portrays Syed’s challenges and triumphs as he builds and leads his team to international prominence, instilling hope and pride in a nation finding its footing.

“Portraying coach Syed Abdul Rahim has been a rewarding experience for me. His journey of determination and resilience is truly inspiring, and I believe audiences worldwide, through Prime Video, will be captivated by his story,” said Ajay.

“Maidaan is a tribute to the unsung heroes of Indian football, showcasing their indomitable spirit. Bringing the story of SA Rahim and Team India to life has been immensely fulfilling, and I am thrilled that it will now reach audiences worldwide on Prime Video,” added director Amit.

Maidaan is produced by Zee Studios, Boney Kapoor, Arunava Joy Sengupta and Akash Chawla, and its music has been given by A.R. Rahman.

Lok Sabha Election 2024 Results: Foreign Brokerages say BJP’s lower-than-expected victory to delay tough reforms but expect policy continuity

Foreign brokerages anticipate changes in economic policy dynamics, with tougher reforms being delayed due to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s smaller-than-expected poll victory. However, they believe policy continuity on investment-led growth, Capex, infrastructure creation and manufacturing will be maintained under the Bharatiya Janata Party-led coalition government.

In the Modi’s third term, they also see a risk of populist bias targeted at lower income strata and measures to revive consumption at the bottom of the pyramid. 

  • Also read: Lok Sabha Election 2024 Results: People of India have saved Constitution, democracy, says Rahul Gandhi

Given the new political reality, the Modi-led coalition, which is way short of the 350-seat mark that most exit polls predicted for the NDA, may dilute its supply-side policy-making style so as to enhance its support for consumption and employment and therefore increase spending on direct social schemes, several brokerages said. 

“We think implementation of tougher reforms including land reforms, a big boost to infrastructure spending, divestment, farm bills, Uniform Civil Code, One Nation, One Elections amongst others will be challenging. In our view, these will matter a lot for the overall narrative for investor sentiment”, Tanvee Gupta Jain, Economist, UBS said in a research note. 

Switzerland-headquartered UBS highlighted that the political outcome in the General Elections 2024 was close to the feedback it had received from global investors which were expecting a BJP-led coalition as their base case, contrary to local investors expectations of a BJP single-party majority. 

“While political stability should help ensure continuity in policy agenda, we see risk of populist bias in third term (targeted towards lower income strata)”, UBS note issued on Tuesday said. 

Jain said that the base case is for the government to stick to a medium-term fiscal consolidation roadmap but with a populist bias. The higher-than-expected dividend transfer to the government would create fiscal leeway to increase populist spending to support consumption for lower-income strata while continuing its thrust to boost public capex, she added. 

India is seeing a K-shaped consumption recovery with affluent/premium segment demand seemingly doing well, and demand for entry-level and mass market goods has remained muted post the pandemic, according to UBS. 

Meanwhile, Morgan Stanley India Equity Strategist Ridham Desai said in a note that pace/direction of reforms are unlikely to slow or change. Most of the likely reforms in the coming five years are in the arena of execution rather than law changes. 

Desai also said that Morgan Stanley Research’s base case is that the BJP-led NDA government is unlikely to sacrifice macro stability as its anchor to economic policy. 

CLSA in a research note highlighted that the BJP has underperformed the most in the three biggest states viz. Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra and West Bengal. All these states have a predominance of rural and agri workers. In addition, state elections in Maharashtra are scheduled in less than six months. This makes us wonder if the new BJP government will take this voter feedback and dilute its unequivocal supply side policy-making style to also accommodate the rural and agri push to address this political reality”, said CLSA Research Analyst Vikash Kumar Jain in the research note titled ‘From Conviction to Doubt’. 

CLSA note said that Indian equity markets led by Modi stocks had approached the national elections with a lot of conviction in the continuity of a strong BJP government. 

The election verdict of the BJP lacking a simple majority questions this conviction and raises doubts over a stable government and policy-making styles, it added. These doubts openly question the notable premium of Indian equities versus history, compared to bonds, the near record premium of Small and Midcaps (SMIDs) and the recent re-rating of Modi stocks, CLSA said.

Liječnik tvrdi da su ove dvije namirnice najbolje za smanjenje upale i mršavljenje

HRANA koja je prepuna hranjivih tvari i niskokalorična igra ključnu ulogu u kontroli tjelesne težine. Osim toga, bori se protiv upala u cijelom tijelu, smanjujući rizik od kroničnih bolesti. Uključivanjem takvih namirnica u svoju prehranu, stvaramo učinak koji ne samo da pomaže u mršavljenju, već podržava i optimalno blagostanje.

Takva hrana sadrži esencijalne hranjive tvari, antioksidanse i zdrave masnoće koji zajedno rade na povećanju razine energije, poboljšanju raspoloženja i podržavaju različite tjelesne funkcije, što u konačnici pridonosi zdravijem načinu života. Liječnik dr. Tej Pratap Singh otkrio je dvije takve namirnice.

1. Losos

Losos je poznat po svojim prednostima u borbi protiv upala i pomoći u mršavljenju. Bogat omega-3 masnim kiselinama, posebno EPA i DHA, losos posjeduje moćna protuupalna svojstva koja pomažu smanjiti upalu u cijelom tijelu. To ne samo da ublažava simptome kroničnih bolesti, već podržava i opće dobro.

Osim toga, visok sadržaj proteina u lososu potiče osjećaj sitosti i pomaže u regulaciji apetita, što ga čini izvrsnim izborom za ljude koji pokušavaju skinuti koji kilogram.

“Riba, poput lososa, bogata je omega-3 masnim kiselinama koje imaju snažna protuupalna svojstva. Može pomoći u smanjenju upale u tijelu i potencijalno spriječiti debljanje poboljšavajući osjetljivost na inzulin”, kaže Singh za SheFinds.

2. Zeleno lisnato povrće

Lisnato povrće, poput špinata, kelja i blitve, poznato je po svojim snažnim protuupalnim svojstvima, zahvaljujući visokoj koncentraciji antioksidansa, vitamina i minerala. Te hranjive tvari pomažu u borbi protiv oksidativnog stresa u tijelu, čime se smanjuje upala koja je često povezana s kroničnim bolestima poput bolesti srca i dijabetesa.

Također, lisnato povrće ima nevjerojatno malo kalorija, a prepuno je vlakana, što ga čini izvrsnim izborom za mršavljenje, tvrdi liječnik. “Špinat, kelj i blitva odlični su izvori vitamina i minerala. Mogu smanjiti upalu i podržati mršavljenje nudeći niskokalorične opcije bogate hranjivim tvarima”, zaključio je dr. Singh.

Pet najaktivnijih pasmina pasa – Index.hr

AKO STE u potrazi za psom, a volite tjelovježbu i fizičke aktivnosti kao što su trčanje, plivanje ili vožnja biciklom, mogle bi vam se svidjeti pasmine pasa koje preporučuju stručnjaci Američkog kinološkog saveza (AKC).

AKC je napravio popis najaktivnijih pasmina pasa koje zahtijevaju intenzivne fizičke aktivnosti kako bi bile sretne. Ove pasmine savršeno se slažu s aktivnim vlasnicima koji mogu posvetiti dovoljno vremena njihovom treningu. U nastavku smo izdvojili pet pasmina s popisa.

Američki stafordski terijer

Američki stafordski terijeri su snažni i inteligentni psi atletske građe. Zbog ovih kvaliteta odlično se snalaze u sportskim natjecanjima za pse. Ako tražite partnera za tjelovježbu, odlično ćete se slagati s američkim stafordskim terijerima. Ovi psi se najbolje osjećaju kada su dio aktivnih obitelji.

Graničarski škotski ovčar

Graničarski škotski ovčari puni su energije, zbog čega im šetnja kvartom ili igra u dvorištu nisu dovoljne da bi se osjećali ispunjeno. Ako njihovi vlasnici nemaju stada ovaca s kojima ovi psi mogu raditi, graničarski škotski ovčari trebat će puno istrčavanja i mentalne stimulacije kako ne bi postali destruktivni i nesretni.

Belgijski ovčar

Belgijski ovčari su jako inteligentni i aktivni psi, koji se često koriste u policiji ili vojsci. Budući da obje profesije traže pse s odličnom formom, belgijski ovčari uživat će u trčanju ili planinarenju sa svojim vlasnikom. Ova pasmina je najsretnija kada može obavljati neki posao.

Mađarska vižla

Mađarske vižle su aktivni psi koji se najbolje snalaze kada su dio aktivnih obitelji. Vižle su lovački psi, odani svojim vlasnicima, koji se mogu prilagoditi životu u kući, ako im se pruži dovoljno tjelovježbe.

Njemački kratkodlaki ptičar

Kao i vižle, njemački kratkodlaki ptičari su prijateljski nastrojeni lovački psi, koji vole udovoljavati svojim vlasnicima. Obožavaju sudjelovati u aktivnostima na otvorenom uz svoje obitelji, kao što su trčanje, plivanje ili pseći sportovi.

Galaxy Watch FE navodno ima promjer od 40 mm, ima Super AMOLED ekran od 1.2 inča, bateriju od 247 mAh, 1.5 GB RAM-a, 16 GB interne memorije i magnetsko bežično punjenje. Sat je navodno otporan na vodu do 50 metara, a njegovo je aluminijsko kućište certificirano s IP68 vezano uz otpornost na vodu i prašinu.

Sat će navodno pokretati Exynos W920 SoC i radit će na Wear OS sa Samsungovim One UI Watchom 5.0. Uz navedeno, Galaxy Watch FE će imati akcelerometar, barometar, žiroskop, geomagnetski senzor, senzor svjetline i optički monitor otkucaja srca.

U Europskoj uniji cijena ovog sata bi trebala biti 199 eura. No, ove informacije još uvijek nisu službeno potvrđene.

India vs Kuwait FIFA World Cup Qualifiers 2026: Sunil Chhetri’s Last Dance in Blue Tigers’ Must-Win Match

Emotions will run high when the talismanic Sunil Chhetri leads India out one last time in a crucial FIFA World Cup qualifying match against Kuwait here on Thursday, hoping to propel his team into the next round as a parting gift after dominating the national football landscape for 19 years. The 39-year-old Chhetri will hang his boots at the end of this match and would like to ensure that the team enters the final-18 stage of the World Cup qualifiers for the first time. India vs Kuwait FIFA World Cup Qualifiers 2026: A Three-Pointer Will Be Best Farewell Gift for Sunil Chhetri, Says Subhasish Bose.

The top two teams from nine groups of four teams each will go on to make the third stage. This round will decide FIFA’s increased allocation of eight World Cup berths for Asia. It will be a little far-fetched to imagine India in the 2026 World Cup in North America, but a win over Kuwait will take the team into the unchartered territory of being up against the best of Asia in at least 10 matches. That would also translate into some quality friendly games.

Occupying the second spot behind Qatar (12 points) in Group A with four points from four games, India are ahead of Afghanistan on goal difference and Kuwait, who have three points. A victory here will put India firmly ahead of Afghanistan, who face Qatar in a tough fixture later on Thursday.

Afghanistan have a seven-goal deficit against India and a win against Kuwait will virtually keep the equation out of their reach. India face Qatar, while Afghanistan take on Kuwait in the final round fixtures on Tuesday. For 19 years, Chhetri has carried the footballing hopes of a nation labelled as the ‘sleeping giant’ of world football. ISL 2024–25 Transfer News: Chennaiyin FC Bolster Defence With Signing of Brazilian Defender Elsinho Dias on Two-Year Deal.

With 94 goals from 150 appearances and a dozen trophies in his cabinet, the diminutive Indian captain is a bonafide legend of the game. And it will be an evening of high emotions at the venue where his professional football career took shape with Mohun Bagan in early 2000s.

A packed crowd is expected at the Salt Lake Stadium to celebrate Chhetri’s last dance. Chhetri has happy memories against Kuwait, having played a key role in the equaliser by Sahal Abdul Samad that forced a penalty shootout and eventually a 5-4 triumph for India in the 2023 SAFF Championship in Bengaluru.

That India had defeated Kuwait by a solitary goal from Manvir Singh in their group league opener in the away fixture in November last year will also be a morale-booster for Igor Stimac’s side, who then suffered a slip-up by going down to Qatar 0-3. Then came the Asian Cup shock where the team drew a blank, losing all its three matches and failing to score even a single goal.

It went from bad to worse for India, who resumed their World Cup qualifiers against Afghanistan, and failed to score in a goalless draw. More misery was in store in their home match in Guwahati where the Blue Tigers suffered a 1-2 defeat, conceding a late goal to the South Asian neighbours. The struggles against Afghanistan reveal deeper issues plaguing the national team. Indian Super League 2024–25 Transfer News: Chennaiyin FC Announces Signing of Midfielder Jitendra Singh.

Despite creating opportunities, India’s inability to finish crucial chances will be a significant concern. The shortcoming was quite pronounced against Afghanistan as the team managed just one shot on target compared to Afghanistan’s five in their shock 1-2 defeat in Guwahati. Midfielders Anirudh Thapa and Lallianzuala Chhangte also failed to make an impact, exacerbating the problem. Their lack of creativity and precision, made worse by ineffective ball control and passing, contributed to India’s misery.

In between the sticks, Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, who at 71 matches is the next most experienced after Chhetri, will also have to step up. His penalty concession due to a communication failure resulted in Afghanistan scoring the winner in March. But India will be coming in with solid preparation for this match.

They have made some interesting additions in I-League forwards Edmund Lalrindika (Inter Kashi) and David Lalhlansanga (Mohammedan Sporting) who will be aiming to become the first players in five years to make national debuts from the second tier league. The defence, however, will have to cope with the absence of Sandesh Jhingan who has been sidelined due to an injury from the Asian Cup in January.

It remains to be seen if the likes of Rahul Bheke, Anwar Ali and Subhasish Bose will be able to compensate for his absence, especially the aerial strength he has provided over the years. Focus will also be on Lallianzuala Chhangte, who had a strong 2023-24 ISL season, scoring 10 goals and providing six assists for Mumbai City FC. He will look to carry this form against Kuwait, who will have the firepower of Hassan Al-Enezi in the defense.

Kuwait are coming to the game after routing Afghanistan 4-0 with their key forward duo of Shabaib Al Khaldi and Mohammed Daham scoring three goals between them. The duo will once again be a big threat to the Indians. Kuwait will also have Mohsen Ghareeb who performed well in their previous encounter, will be tasked with stopping Chhangte if he starts in the left-back position.

Squads

India: Gurpreet Singh Sandhu (GK); Nikhil Poojary, Subhasish Bose, Anwar Ali, Jay Gupta; Jeakson Singh, Anirudh Thapa; Naorem Mahesh Singh, Brandon Fernandes, Lallianzuala Chhangte; Sunil Chhetri.

Kuwait: Sulaiman Abdulghafour (GK); Rashed Al-Dosary, Khalid El Ebrahim, Hassan Al-Enezi, Salman Bormeya; Eid Al-Rasheedi; Hamad Al-Harbi, Faisal Zayed, Azbi Shehab, Mohammad Daham; Yousef Nasser.

Kickoff: 7pm.

Bhageeratha marks directorial debut with gripping web series on Bitcoin scam

Despite a few attempts by production houses, the Kannada industry is still exploring the world of web series. However, Bhageeratha, a rising talent, is poised to make a significant mark on this platform. Having honed his skills in the writing department and serving as an assistant director in various films, including Indrajit Lankesh’s Dev Son of Mudde Gowda (2012) Dandupalya series directed by Srinivas Raju, to name a few, he is now gearing up for his directorial debut with a web series.

What sets Bhageeratha apart is his unique approach. His upcoming web series will explore one of the biggest Bitcoin scams that rocked Karnataka. Even more fascinating is the fact that Bhageeratha is basing this series on his book, Amoeba, shedding light on the Bitcoin world.

“When it comes to scam-based subjects in web series, many are adapted from books. Examples include Scoop based on Behind Bars in Byculla: My Days in Prison by Jigna Vora, Scam 1992 based on the 1992 Indian stock market scam, Scam 2003: The Telgi Story based on Telgi Scam Reporter’s ki Diary by Sanjay Singh, and Sacred Games based on Sacred Games by Vikram Chandra, all of which have influenced me. Having written the book, Amoeba, I enjoyed the process and now aim to adapt it into a web series,” says Bhageeratha.

Currently in talks with top digital platforms, Bhageeratha is gearing up to commence shooting for the series by the end of the year.”My web series will be produced in Kannada and dubbed for release in various languages,” he says.

Market voices post election outcome

Tanvee Gupta Jain, Chief Economist at UBS India

After a weak political outcome, we believe investors will focus on: government formation and choice of prime ministerial candidate considering the BJP does not have a simple majority of its own. Will it still be Modi or someone else?; policy choices to support growth vis-à-vis ensuring macro stability and the reform narrative. We would watch out for (a) upcoming union Budget — our base case is for the government to stick to a medium-term fiscal consolidation roadmap but with a populist bias.

Amar Ambani, Executive Director, YES Securities

“Indian equity valuations were quite rich already, and election result day presented it with the perfect reason to correct themselves. Another 10 per cent correction cannot be ruled out, simply on the basis on where we stand on market multiples.”

Manish Jain, Director – Institutional Business (Equity & FI) Division, Mirae Asset Capital Markets

“Investors like certainty and continuation of policies. India is a long term structural growth story. A lot of elements are in place. Over anything the economics should prevail. We are already on top in factors like GDP, market cap, demographic dividend, etc. It will be an endeavour for all the policy makers to take the country to further heights. I don’t think any derailment on these efforts is in anybody’s interest.

Vinit Sambre, Head – Equities, DSP Mutual Fund

There is bit of uncertainty as investors are concerned about the slowdown of reforms that had been initiated under the BJP-led government. This uncertainty has triggered a correction in the markets as investors reassess the outlook under the new political landscape. We would like to believe that the development agenda that spurred the performance of equity is likely to persist, irrespective of the party in power.

Kislay Upadhyay, smallcase Manager and Founder at FidelFolio

“Even assuming NDA forms govt again but with weaker majority, market could further fall down ~5 per cent over the next week. However, over next few months FPI money that is waiting on the sidelines in risk-off mode could come in heavy and fast as uncertainty around govt goes away. We saw outflow of about ₹25,000 crore in May. With great GDP numbers and govt uncertainty gone, we could see an inflow of 1.5 trillion over next 5-6 months alone. This should result in healthy returns over next 6 months to 1 year.”

Yashovardhan Khemka, Senior Manager, Research & Analytics at Abans Holdings Ltd

“The Election results are showing a less than halfway mark for the current BJP government, pointing towards a coalition government. This will lead to dependence on allies in making key policy decision, and sharing certain cabinet seats, which will lead to policy paralysis and uncertainty in the government’s functioning.

The markets, are pricing the risk associated with this scenario, and the potential impact of shift toward socialistic policies by the government, thus leading to sell-off in the market”.

Rahul Singh, CIO-Equities, Tata Asset Management

The election result is likely to lead to a more balanced market; risk-reward in large caps and underperforming sectors like banking and consumer appears more favourable. On the other hand, there is likely to be greater scrutiny and valuation discipline in the performing sectors like capital goods, power, defence and manufacturing. The macro parameters are likely to remain largely stable and hence provide downside support to valuations.

Historical data suggests that despite initial volatility, markets tend to recover and even thrive in the longer term. For instance, even after the 2014 and 2019 elections, the Indian stock market saw significant gains in the months following the election results. Investors are advised to focus on long-term strategies, such as maintaining a diversified portfolio and avoiding panic selling. Strong fundamentals and resilience against political changes are crucial for navigating market volatility.

 Pradeep Gupta, Co-founder & Vice-chairman, Anand Rathi Group

Till the question of the continuity of the current government was at an unsure position, the market will continue with heightened volatility in the short-term period.

Amit Kumar Gupta, smallcase Manager and Founder at Fintrekk Capital

We are most likely to see Modi continue as PM but with some check and balances. It could be that the BJP will have to be more populist and give more freebies which will drive up consumption, but at the expense of slower public capex spend. It’s also worth mentioning that global long only’s are still largely underweight so I feel that they will wait for opportunities to engage with the market. In the meantime, there was a lot of froth in the market yesterday which has clearly been skimmed. In terms of positioning, policy-oriented sectors like infra, manufacturing, defence, power may take a quarter or so make a comeback Laggards like consumer staples and healthcare may do well in this environment. IT sector is more dependent on global growth.”

Ajay Menon, MD & CEO, Broking & Distribution, Motilal Oswal Financial Services

We expect the volatility around the outcome to reduce over the next few days and market focus to return on macro and fundamentals which continue to remain strong. Once the new government is formed, it will present its first and full budget for FY25 in the next few weeks, where themes like capex, manufacturing, rural, consumption, and credit lending will be back in focus. While the market volatility may continue in the near term, retail investors should take this correction as an opportunity to accumulate quality names in 3-4 tranches. Over the next few days, the narrative around government formation and RBI monetary policy would take centre stage.

Siddarth Bhamre – Head of Research at Asit C Mehta Investment Interrmediates

Now with election results not being one-sided, we are witnessing profit booking. We believe this profit booking may continue for some more time. Spaces like FMCG and IT may see less damage as defensive buying along with valuation comfort may keep them immune to this correction. Though we expect some correction to continue in the market, it would not be fair to consider it as the end of the bull market. Most likely this correction may turn out to be a hiccup in the long-term bull run.”

Evo koje sve hidrirajuće napitke možete popiti umjesto vode nakon treninga

GOTOVO pa ne postoji bolji osjećaj nego kada nakon napornog treninga popijemo prvi veliki gutljaj vode. Pijenje vode važno je kako bismo ostali hidrirani i pozitivno utjecali na sve sustave u tijelu. Međutim, nakon treninga ne trebate nužno piti samo vodu. Skupina dijetetičarki otkrila je koja još pića možete popiti nakon treninga, a da su jednako ili gotovo jednako hidrirana poput vode.

Mlijeko

Prva alternativa za piće nakon treninga je mlijeko, koje vas može hidrirati i više nego neka sportska pića. Kako prenosi Eating Well, istraživanje objavljeno 2020. godine u International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism pokazalo je da su osobe koje su nakon treninga konzumirale mlijeko s manjim postotkom masti zadržale više tekućine u tijelu u odnosu na one pojedince koji su pili samo vodu.

Mlijeko se sastoji od 90 posto vode i sadrži nekoliko elektrolita koji se gube znojenjem, uključujući natrij, kalij, kalcij i magnezij, koji pomažu vašem tijelu da zadrži tekućinu. Pijenje mlijeka osigurava potrebnu hidraciju, kao i unos hranjivih tvari, uključujući proteine.

Smoothie

Smoothieji su još jedna opcija za one koji nakon treninga žele konzumirati nešto što nije voda. Dijetetičarka Amy Goodson tvrdi da “smoothieji pružaju brzo probavljive ugljikohidrate, visokokvalitetne proteine i tekućinu za poticanje oporavka nakon vježbanja”.

Kako biste napravili osvježavajući smoothie nakon treninga, preporučuje se da koristite sastojke poput mlijeka, jogurta i voća. Od dodatnih sastojaka, u smoothie možete dodati proteinski prah, voće, vodu, maslac od kikirikija ili određeno povrće koje će vam pomoći da se osvježite, ali i oporavite nakon treninga. 

Sok od naranče

Dijetetičarka Marie Spano ističe da biste nakon, ali i prije treninga, trebali piti sok od naranče. “Stopostotni sok od naranče može vas duže držati hidriranima u usporedbi s vodom. Čini se da i ugljikohidrati i kalij u stopostotnom soku od naranče doprinose njegovom kratkoročnom potencijalu hidratacije.”

Čak jedna čaša soka od naranče pruža izvrstan izvor vitamina C koji jača imunitet i time je vrlo važan za sportaše, posebno tijekom intenzivne fizičke aktivnosti. Kada je sportašima, ali i svima koji rekreativno vježbaju, potrebno biti zdrav, prenosi Eating Well. 

Sportski napici

Iako možda nisu najzdravija opcija, sportski napici vas mogu hidrirati nakon treninga. Spano objašnjava da sportski napici “sadrže brzodjelujuće ugljikohidrate, koji mogu pomoći u obnavljanju iscrpljenih zaliha glikogena. Ugljikohidrati i šećer u sportskim pićima mogu ih učiniti privlačnijima sportašima od obične vode, potičući unos više tekućine. Sportska pića također sadrže mnogo elektrolita koje gubimo znojenjem.”

Međutim, dijetetičarka preporučuje da odaberete sportski napitak koji ima više natrija nego kalija, jer znojenjem gubimo više natrija nego kalija. Također, potrebno je voditi računa i o količini šećera koja se nalazi u ovakvim pićima.

Sok od višnje

“Sok od višanja je poput šifre za oporavak mišića. Pijenje ovog soka može pomoći u poticanju oporavka, smanjiti upalu i ublažiti bolove u mišićima. Ovaj sok sadrži i ugljikohidrate, koji su važni za oporavak mišića nakon treninga”, objašnjava Goodson.

Dodaje da je važno istaknuti kako sok od višanja sadrži kalij, ali ne i natrij. “Kako biste nadoknadili sve potrebne elektrolite, čašu soka od višanja kombinirajte s hranom koja sadrži natrij. Poput juhe, slanih orašastih plodova ili krekera od cjelovitih žitarica”, zaključuje Goodson.

Udruga ljubitelja mačaka je odabrala deset najpopularnijih pasmina mačaka

DA JE SVAKOME njegova mačka najljepša na svijetu, to već znaju i ptice na grani. Nećemo vam proturječiti – svaka je maca posebna i prekrasna na svoj način. Međutim, prema podacima Udruge ljubitelja mačaka (CFA), postoji deset pasmina mačaka koje su najpopularnije na svijetu. U nastavku provjerite koje su mačke na popisu.

Ragdoll

Ljepotica bistrih plavih očiju i duge meke dlake, kao stvorene za maženje, uvijek se nađe na vrhu svakog popisa popularnosti i ljepote. Nismo nimalo iznenađeni budući da ovu mačku, osim besprijekornog izgleda, krasi i neodoljiv temperament. Ove mačke uživaju u vašem društvu i rado se maze.

Maine Coon

Najveća mačka na svijetu često je nazivana “nježnim divom” zbog svoje blage naravi i druželjubivosti. Maine Coon mačke su vrlo razigrane. Često će se igrati s igračkama, penjati se po grebalicama i istraživati svoj okoliš. Dobro se slažu s djecom i drugim kućnim ljubimcima.

Perzijska mačka

Jedna od najpoznatijih pasmina na svijetu, koja je bila popularna u svojim samim početcima, ne gubi na popularnosti ni danas. Karakteriziraju ih neobična ravna njuškica s velikim okruglim očima i dlaka koju bismo mogli opisati kao “luksuznu”. Vrlo su privržene svojim vlasnicima i uživaju u maženju i bliskom kontaktu. Ipak, nisu pretjerano zahtjevne kada je u pitanju pažnja i obično će se smjestiti pored vas, uživajući u društvu.

Britanska kratkodlaka mačka

Ova cijenjena pasmina podsjeća na plišanog medvjedića, i izgledom i temperamentom. Radi se o prilično mirnoj mački koja svejedno uživa u igri sa svojim ljudima. Iako će uživati u vašem društvu, nisu pretjerano zahtjevne, već su veoma neovisne. Nemaju potrebu konstantno biti u centru pažnje.

Egzotična kratkodlaka mačka

Vrlo nalik svojim perzijskim precima, egzotična kratkodlaka mačka stekla je još veću popularnost, vjerojatno zbog svoje dlake koju nije potrebno održavati. Ove mačke zahtijevaju minimalno dotjerivanje, s tjednim četkanjem dovoljnim kako bi izgledale i osjećale se dobro. Idealna je mačka ako živite u stanu!

Devon Rex

Mačka pomalo “izvanzemaljskog” izgleda zaintrigirat će vas na prvu. Ova pasmina voli interakciju s ljudima, drugim kućnim ljubimcima ili igračkama, stoga osigurajte poticajno okruženje i nemojte ih često ostavljati same.

Abesinska mačka

Mačka, koja slovi kao jedna od najinteligentnijih pasmina, vrlo je oprezna, ali aktivna. Odlično se slaže s drugim životinjama, a nema problema ni s malom djecom. Abesinka će vas pratiti u stopu, što god radili, pa ćete uvijek imati osjećaj da vas netko motri i čuva.

Sphynx

Najpoznatija “gola mačka” također se nalazi na svim listama najpopularnijih mačaka. Ovo je je aktivna pasmina i trebali biste joj omogućiti puno igračaka za mentalnu stimulaciju. Stereotipno znatiželjna mačka, sphynx mačka također dobro podnosi dresuru.

Američka kratkodlaka mačka

Ova je mačka poznata po svojoj okretnosti i sposobnosti hvatanja štakora, miševa i drugih životinjica koje mogu stvarati probleme u vašem domu. Danas su one i dalje popularna pasmina mačaka za obitelji diljem svijeta i poznate su kao nježni, ljupki kućni ljubimci unatoč tome što su nekoć bile lovci.

Škotski fold

Specifična mačka nazvana je po svojim karakterističnim ušima. Njezino se lice nerijetko opisuje kao sovino zbog velikih okruglih očiju kojima vas pomno promatra. Opisane su kao mačke koje je lako njegovati i dresirati. Prijateljski su nastrojene prema ljudima, drugim kućnim ljubimcima i strancima.

LEGO stolić za kavu hit je na društvenim mrežama. Evo kako ga napraviti

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

NA društvenim mrežama već su neko vrijeme prilično popularni stolići za kavu napravljeni od LEGO kutija.

“Ovo je preslatko”

Za izradu stola koristila je šest LEGO kutija za pohranu koje je prvotno kupila u bijeloj boji, a zatim ih pofarbala u zeleno. Kutije su poslužile kao baza stola. Pronalaženje odgovarajućeg stakla za gornji dio stola pokazalo se kao izazov, no uspjela ga je pronaći u IKEA-i. “Opsjednuta sam rezultatom”, izjavila je na kraju videa. 

“Prodaju te kutije i u zelenoj boji, nisi ih trebala bojati”, “Ovo je preslatko, sviđa mi se”, “Trebala si staviti LEGO minifigurice ispod stola”, “Sada ti nedostaje LEGO cvijeće za sredinu stola”, “Sladak je”, “Odličan posao, jako je sladak”, “Izgleda sjajno”, neki su od komentara ispod videa. 

Ako se i vi želite okušati u izradi ovakvog stola, evo što će vam trebati

Ako i vi želite izraditi vlastiti LEGO stolić, u nastavku smo naveli komade koji će vam trebati. Također, kutije ne morate bojati ako ne želite jer su dostupne u raznim bojama. Izdvojili smo nekoliko primjera.

Bon Jovi takes a victory lap, assessing a 40-year career on new album ‘Forever’

Forty years after they ran away with our hearts and into rock history, Bon Jovi is back with a reflective new album taking stock of all the boys from New Jersey have accomplished.

Perhaps the biggest news is that there’s a new Bon Jovi album at all. After years of experiencing vocal issues, singer Jon Bon Jovi underwent surgery on his vocal cords in 2022 and wasn’t at all sure of what the results would be.

They turned out fine. His voice has a slight affectation to it, mostly on protracted vowel sounds, but the charisma and the mischievousness is still there, as are a few successfully hit high notes that are an encouraging sign.

“Living Proof” is the best Bon Jovi song in nearly 20 years. It brings back the talk box device that was such an integral part of “Livin’ On A Prayer” and “It’s My Life,” and the song has the kind of catchy chorus that burrows deeply into your brain after hearing it just once.

Opener “Legendary” is one of many songs here that look back contentedly and approvingly at the band’s career (“Right where I am is where I wanna be,” Bon Jovi sings.) It’s followed by “We Made It Look Easy,” with similar sentiments.

1988 Jeep Grand Wagoneer gets 807-hp Hellcat V8, supercar-like price

As the electric Jeep Wagoneer S was making its debut, Texas-based Vigilante was busy taking the nameplate in a completely different direction. It gave the original Grand Wagoneer the resto-mod treatment with a modern suspension, huge brakes, and an 807-horsepower V8.

The company started with a 1988 model and left the exterior largely stock. Finished in an eye-catching shade of red, the SUV wears the famous wood-look paneling, a hood ornament, and a generous serving of bright exterior trim. The wheels look factory but they’re not: They’re 17-inch units shaped just like the 15-inch alloys that Jeep made standard, and they’re wrapped by beefy BF Goodrich all-terrain tires.

You won’t find much that still carries a Jeep part number under the body: The Grand Wagoneer rides on an updated frame developed in-house by Vigilante. The brand then installed the same 6.2-liter supercharged V8 that Dodge put in the Challenger Hellcat Redeye. It makes 807 horsepower and 717 pound-feet of torque in this application, and it spins the four wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. For context, a stock 1988 Grand Wagoneer uses a 5.9-liter V8 tuned to 144 horsepower and bolted to a three-speed automatic transmission.

Vigilante hasn’t published performance figures, but its Grand Wagoneer should be able to haul, well … just about anything. It should handle better than stock, too, thanks to a four-link Eibach coil suspension and Fox Racing shocks, while six-piston brakes keep the Hemi in check.

Accessed via hidden power-operated steps, the interior features modern vintage-looking gauges, an updated climate control system, and sound-deadening material. The seats were restored with new springs, foam, and padding and upholstered with a blend of Moores & Giles leather and corduroy fabric. Nearly every part of the cabin has been modified to some extent, yet it manages to look perfectly old-school.

Bringing a classic into the modern era is never cheap, and Vigilante is selling the Hellcat-powered Grand Wagoneer for $385,000. It’s also open to working with customers to design a resto-modded Grand Wagoneer from scratch. For that kind of money, you can buy a supercar — say, a Maserati MC20 Cielo — and have enough left over to build a garage to keep it in. But that’s not always the point, is it? Companies like Icon and Singer have proved time and again that there’s enough demand for an old-looking classic car to make a business case out of it.

Stock market today: Sensex, Nifty plummet after election upset; investors brace for policy shifts

The BSE Sensex was down by 5.74 per cent, or 4389 points, to 72,097, while the NSE Nifty was at 21,884 down by 5.93 per cent, or 1,379 points, at 3.30 pm.

Vinod Nair, Head of Research, Geojit Financial Services, said, “The unexpected outcome of the general election sparked a wave of fear selling in the domestic market, reversing the recent substantial rally. Despite this, the market maintains its expectation of stability within the coalition, led by BJP as the major election winner, thereby mitigating substantial downside in the medium-term. This is likely to lead to a major shift in political policy with a focus on social economics, which will have a positive effect on the rural economy.

  • Also watch: Sensex falls by 7 per cent, Nifty by 6 per cent

Alongside, the sectors that have topped in the past five years, including power, capital goods, real estate, and industrials, are advised to exercise caution in the near term. Nevertheless, the long-term growth prospects for these sectors remain robust.”

Top gainers on the NSE at 3.20 pm include Hindustan Unilever (5.52 per cent), Britannia (2.91 per cent), Nestle India (2.64 per cent), Hero MotoCorp (2.60 per cent), and Tata Consumer Products (1.04 per cent). Top losers include Adani Ports (-21.18 per cent), Adani Enterprises (-19.82 per cent), ONGC (-17.72 per cent), NTPC (-15.9 per cent), and SBI (-15.22 per cent).

Dakle, ako pojedinci koji su već navršili 40 godina žele poboljšati svoje zdravlje crijeva, stručnjaci predlažu češće konzumiranje voća i povrća koje je bogato antioksidansima, probioticima i vlaknima. Liječnica dr. Brynna Connor istaknula je nekoliko takvih namirnica koje su odlične za zdravu probavu i crijeva.

1. Jagode

Prepune vlakana, vitamina i antioksidansa, jagode podržavaju zdravlje probavnog sustava, pospješujući redovito pražnjenje crijeva i pomažući u prevenciji zatvora. Visok sadržaj vlakana također pomaže da se duže osjećamo siti i potencijalno pomaže u regulaciji tjelesne težine. Osim toga, jagode sadrže prebiotike koji podržavaju rast korisnih crijevnih bakterija.

“Jagode su voće prirodno bogato vlaknima, koji pomažu probavnom sustavu da apsorbira više hranjivih tvari, hrane dobre crijevne bakterije i sprječavaju zatvor. Sadržaj vlakana u jagodama također pomaže da se dulje osjećate sitima. Osim toga, odličan su izvor vitamina C i antioksidansa”, kaže dr. Connor za SheFinds.

2. Borovnice

Borovnice su voće poznato po svom bogatom okusu i brojnim blagodatima za zdravlje. Pune su antioksidansa, vitamina i dijetalnih vlakana što ih čini odličnom namirnicom za dobru probavu.

“Borovnice sadrže spojeve zvane antocijanini, koji mogu smanjiti rizik od srčanih bolesti i dijabetesa, osim što pomažu kod metabolizma, mršavljenja i upala”, tvrdi liječnica.

3. Špinat

Špinat donosi mnoštvo prednosti za zdravlje crijeva i pospješivanje probave. Prepun je vlakana, vitamina i esencijalnih hranjivih tvari te podržava pravilnu probavu i pomaže u sprječavanju nadutosti. Njegov sadržaj vlakana pomaže u održavanju sitosti, što potencijalno doprinosi regulaciji tjelesne težine, navodi dr. Connor.

4. Cikla

Ljudi često zanemaruju ciklu, ali ova namirnica nudi niz zdravstvenih prednosti. Njezin bogat sadržaj vlakana pomaže kod probave te smanjuje nadutost i nelagodu. Osim toga, cikla je prepuna hranjivih tvari poput folata i mangana koji podržavaju zdravlje crijeva i poboljšavaju probavne procese. Prirodni antioksidansi u cikli također pomažu u borbi protiv upale u crijevima.

“Cikla je jedna od supernamirnica koja često proleti ispod radara. Uključivanje cikle u prehranu može značajno poboljšati zdravlje crijeva i pospješiti probavu. Ovo povrće ima mnogo protuupalnih prednosti zahvaljujući tome što je izvrstan izvor betalaina, pigmenta koji sadrži dušik i koji daje cikli njezinu prepoznatljivu boju, te bogatih prehrambenih nitrata”, zaključila je liječnica.

“Zbogom, Instagrame”: Aplikacija potvrdila testiranje nepreskočivih oglasa

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

INSTAGRAM je potvrdio da testira oglase koje korisnici neće moći preskočiti, odnosno neće više moći scrollati dalje dok im aplikacija to ne dozvoli, slično oglasima na YouTubeu i brojnim besplatnim igrama za mobitel. Ovi će oglasi prikazivati odbrojavanje kako bi korisnici znali koliko će vremena proći dok im aplikacija ne dozvoli da nastave pregledavati sadržaj.

Korisnici ne kriju nezadovoljstvo

Instagram je već uveo plaćeno korištenje aplikacije za korisnike u EU koji ne žele vidjeti oglase, a ovim potezom idu i korak dalje.

“Uvijek testiramo formate koji mogu donijeti vrijednost oglašivačima,” rekao je glasnogovornik tvrtke Meta za TechCrunch. “Dok testiramo i učimo, redovito ćemo javljati rezultate testova”. Neki korisnici Instagrama već su primijetili novi format reklama. Jedan korisnik X-a (Twittera) objavio je screenshot jednog takvog oglasa, a potez tvrtke je nazvao “suludim”.

Na novost su se požalili i korisnici Reddita. Jedan je korisnik podijelio screenshot reklame koja ga je dočekala dok je koristio aplikaciju. “Uskoro za sve. Ovo je kap koja je prelila čašu kad je riječ o Instagramu. Već sam nekako mogao tolerirati hrpu reklama na aplikaciji, ali da ih ne mogu preskočiti? Gonite se”, napisao je.

Javili su se još neki komentatori koji su uočili ovu značajku: “Mrzim ovu novu ‘značajku’, tako je invazivna”, “Zbogom Instagram, ne treba mi to”, “Upravo mi se prikazao prvi”, “Ugasio sam aplikaciju čim sam vidio ovakav oglas”, “Pauza za reklamu, pauza od aplikacije”, “Prikazuju mi se takvi oglasi već nekoliko dana”, “Čim sam vidio reklamu, zatvorio sam aplikaciju”.

Instagram još nije otkrio gdje se u aplikaciji pojavljuju ovi oglasi ni testiraju li značajku globalno. U svakom slučaju, prema izjavama i screenshotovima korisnika, prekidi se pojavljuju dok gledate video objave.

Nije poznato ni hoće li se ovi oglasi prikazivati korisnicima plaćene usluge, iako nema smisla da aplikacija za 12.99 eura mjesečno ukloni oglase samo djelomično.

Broker’s call: Kotak Mahindra Bank (Buy)

Target: ₹2,124

CMP: ₹1,719.05

Kotak Mahindra Bank (KMB) has shown a decline in performance over the last three years (3Y return: -7.4 per cenet, 1Y return: -13.3 per cent) compared to the returns of Bank Nifty (3Y return: 37.4 per cent, 1Y return: 11.5 per cent) and Nifty (3Y return: 43.6 per cent, 1Y return: 21.6 per cent).

  • Also read:Broker’s call: Hindustan Unilever (Add)

This underperformance can be attributed to several factors, including the stepping down of Uday Kotak, slower business growth relative to Kotak’s usual standards, and supervisory actions by the RBI. However, the bank has maintained strong asset quality during this period.

Looking ahead to FY25, there are indications of a revival, particularly evident in robust deposit growth, which is expected to bolster business expansion given the comfortable Capital to Deposit Ratio (CDR) level at 84 per cent. We anticipate that margins will remain steady in the near term, supported by favourable credit costs. Our estimate for FY26 Return on Equity stands at 18.5 per cent, up from the current level of 15.5 per cent, driven by a projected credit growth of 18 per cent CAGR for FY24-26.

Furthermore, the Bank’s valuation is currently at 3(x) trailing Price-to-Book Value per Share (P/BVPS), compared to the 5-Year median P/BVPS of 4.1(x). We believe that there is a strong likelihood of the stock undergoing rerating due to improving return ratios.

Nedostatak jednog nutrijenta gori je od pušenja, tvrde znanstvenici

OČEKIVANI životni vijek pod utjecajem je mnoštva različitih čimbenika. Neki, poput genetike, bolesti i ozljeda, su izvan naše kontrole, dok na druge, poput naše prehrane i tjelovježbe, itekako možemo utjecati.

Pušenje je poznato kao jedna od najgorih navika koje možemo izabrati za naše zdravlje. Ne samo da je vodeći uzrok raka pluća u svijetu, već može povećati i rizik od srčanih bolesti i moždanog udara. No, znanstvenici su otkrili da bi nedostatak jednog nutrijenta mogao biti gori od pušenja.

Istraživanje je pokazalo da nedostatak omega-3 masnih kiselina u prehrani može skratiti životni vijek više nego pušenje. Naime, pušenje skraćuje očekivani životni vijek za četiri godine, dok ga niske razine omega-3 masnih kiselina, koje se uglavnom nalaze u masnoj ribi poput lososa i skuše, mogu smanjiti za pet godina.

Istraživanje, objavljeno u American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, koristilo je statistike iz Framingham Heart Study (FHS), jedne od najdugovječnijih studija na svijetu. FHS je pružio jedinstvene uvide u čimbenike rizika za kardiovaskularne bolesti i doveo do razvoja Framingham Risk Scorea temeljenog na osam osnovnih čimbenika rizika: dobi, spolu, pušenju, liječenju hipertenzije, statusu dijabetesa, sistoličkom krvnom tlaku, ukupnom kolesterolu i HDL kolesterolu.

“Informacije sadržane u koncentracijama četiri masne kiseline u crvenim krvnim stanicama bile su jednako korisne kao one sadržane u razinama lipida, krvnom tlaku, pušenju i statusu dijabetesa u pogledu predviđanja ukupne smrtnosti. Ovo govori o snazi omega-3 indeksa kao čimbenika rizika i trebalo bi ga smatrati jednako važnim kao i druge utvrđene čimbenike rizika, možda čak i važnijim”, rekao je koautor studije, dr. Bill Harris, predsjednik Fatty Acid Research Institute.

Japan ima veći omega-3 indeks nego SAD

Ranije izvješće iz 2018. godine pokazalo je da su osobe s visokim omega-3 indeksom imale 33 posto manji rizik od rane smrti. Istraživanje je također istaknulo kako je unos omega-3 u svijetu povezan s različitim očekivanim životnim vijekom.

“Zanimljivo je primijetiti da je u Japanu, gdje je prosječni omega-3 indeks veći od osam posto, očekivani životni vijek oko pet godina duži nego u Sjedinjenim Državama, gdje je prosječni omega-3 indeks oko pet posto”, dodao je glavni autor studije dr. Michael McBurney sa Sveučilišta Guelph u Kanadi.

Hrana bogata omega-3 masnim kiselinama uključuje:

    •    ribu i druge morske plodove (posebno hladnovodnu masnu ribu, kao što su losos, skuša, tuna, haringa i srdela)
    •    orašaste plodove i sjemenke (kao što su laneno sjeme, chia sjemenke i orasi)
    •    biljna ulja (kao što su laneno ulje, sojino ulje i ulje repice).

Vlasnici na ogrlicu svoje mačke stavili kameru pa došli do šokantnog otkrića

DRUŠTVENE mreže preplavili su videi u kojima gledamo svijet iz mačje perspektive. Naime, vlasnici ovih krznenih životinja svojim ljubimcima na ogrlice pričvršćuju kamere, a onda objavljuju snimke njihovih avantura.

Tako je na profilu Nature Is Amazing osvanuo video jedne mačke koja agresivno zamjauče, a onda kreće loviti drugu mačku. Trči po parkiralištima, travnjacima, grmljima i ulicama te pokušava sustići drugu mačku. Potjera traje neko vrijeme, a onda obje mačke, iscrpljene i bez daha, odustaju.

“Stavili su kameru na svoga mačka i shvatili da je on kvartovski nasilnik”, stoji u opisu videa koji možete pogledati u nastavku.

Kaia Gerber nosi kontroverzne hlače koje bi uskoro mogle postati novi trend

Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

No, ono što je zaista privuklo poglede bio je par hlača s ugrađenom minicom marke Paloma Wool.

Trend suknje preko hlača već neko vrijeme osvaja modni svijet, pojavljujući se u kolekcijama raznih brendova. Sandy Liang je za proljeće/ljeto 2024. i jesen/zimu 2024. predstavio svoje verzije ovog stila, dok je Fendi oduševio za jesen/zimu 2023. Paloma Wool, modna marka iz Barcelone koju je 2014. osnovala Paloma Lanna, također je prigrlila ovaj hibridni stil u svojim kolekcijama za proljeće/ljeto 2024. i jesen/zimu 2024.

Budući da su slavne osobe poput Kaie Gerber već prihvatile ovaj trend, uskoro ga možemo očekivati na ulicama i u high street trgovinama.

Adele calls out heckler who shouted ‘Pride sucks’ at her concert

LOS ANGELES: Adele, a strong supporter of LGBTQI+ community, shut down a heckler who interrupted the singer by yelling “Pride sucks!” at her Las Vegas concert.

During her Saturday’s concert in Las Vegas at Caesar’s Palace, the multiple Grammy winner engaged in a banter with the crowd when an audience member got in the way.

“What was that? Did you just say, ‘Pride sucks?’ Did you come to my f***king show and just say that Pride sucks? “Are you f***king stupid? Don’t be so f***king ridiculous. If you got nothing nice to say, shut up, all right?” Adele, 36, said in a video that’s gone viral on social media.

Last year, the singer marked Pride Month during her Las Vegas residency by wearing a black dress with a rainbow flag train and Pride-themed confetti.

June has been celebrated as Pride Month annually since 1970.

Istraživač dugovječnosti kaže da jednu naviku nikada neće promijeniti

ODRASTAJUĆI u Italiji, Valter Longo bio je fasciniran proučavanjem dugovječnosti. Zanimalo ga je što može produžiti životni vijek, posebno kada je prehrana u pitanju. Dugovječnost je počeo proučavati 1989. godine. Trideset pet godina kasnije, radi kao direktor Laboratorija za dugovječnost i rak na Institutu za molekularnu onkologiju IFOM u Milanu.

Ali čak i Longo, koji se nada da će doživjeti 120 godina, zna da se neke navike mogu promijeniti, a neke ne. Štoviše, sam tvrdi da jednu stvar ne planira odbaciti, čak i ako bi mu to moglo povećati šanse da živi dulje.

“Iako se hranim po principima mediteranske prehrane, za koju studije sugeriraju da može smanjiti šanse za razvoj srčanih bolesti i dijabetesa tipa 2, važno je jesti i po načelima povremenog posta. Osobno preporučujem 12-satni post”, rekao je.

Staru poslovicu: “Doručkuj kao kralj, ručaj kao princ, večeraj kao siromah”, podržava znanost jer vodi do boljih zdravstvenih ishoda i blisko je usklađena s prehranom najdugovječnijih ljudi na svijetu. Ali manje porcije za večeru ne uklapaju se u raspored ovog istraživača.

“Ja biram obilnu večeru, što nije idealno, ali ne ručam, i tako mi je jednostavnije”, dodaje Longo.

Njegov je zaključak da su negativni učinci obilne večere relativno mali.

“To je jedan od kompromisa s kojima živim”, kaže Longo.

Mogu li psi i mačke imati sezonske alergije? Evo što kažu veterinari

LJUDI nisu jedini koji se muče sa sezonskim alergijama. Veterinarski tehničar Michael Natale u intervjuu za časopis People otkrio je da su sezonske alergije, kao i obične alergije, uobičajena pojava kod pasa i mačaka.

“Svaka životinja može imati ili razviti alergije. Baš kao i ljudi, i one ih mogu razviti kako stare”, objašnjava Natale. “To se događa češće nego što većina ljudi misli.”

Veterinarski tehničar navodi da se tretmani za alergije kod pasa i mačaka ovise o tome koliko je životinja alergična na nešto. Primjerice, njegov rotvajler ima teške alergije, zbog čega svaki tjedan mora dobivati injekcije protiv alergija te uz to ima posebnu prehranu.

Natale također napominje da postoji jedna alergija koja se često javlja kod kućnih ljubimaca.

“Često viđam životinje alergične na piletinu, koja se može naći u mnogim proizvodima za kućne ljubimce”, objašnjava.

Kako bi pomogli kućnim ljubimcima koji se muče s alergijama, vlasnici bi prvo trebali posjetiti veterinara ili veterinarskog dermatologa koji obavlja alergijske testove kako bi doznali koji alergeni smetaju njihovim ljubimcima.

“Ako znate alergen, pokušajte maksimalno izbjeći izlaganje vašeg ljubimca tom alergenu”, objašnjava Natale. “Čitajte popise sastojaka na proizvodima i koristite lijekove za alergiju koje vam je propisao veterinar. Najvažnije je da odvedete svog ljubimca na pregled ako osjećate da nešto nije u redu s njim.”

Ove novosti navodno dolaze na iOS 18

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

OČEKUJE se izlazak iOS-a 18, a glavna tema nadogradnje je AI. No, očekuju se i druga poboljšanja, a Apple navodno priprema preuređenje iPhone Control Centra. Novi dizajn uključivat će ažuriranja za widget za reprodukciju glazbe i kontrole pametnog doma HomeKit.

Korisnici se nadaju većoj kontroli

Prema Marku Gurmanu, i aplikacija Postavke dobit će novi, jednostavniji izgled i značajno poboljšano pretraživanje. Control Center će, s druge strane, biti nadograđen s novim widgetom za glazbu i poboljšanjima u upravljanju pametnim kućanskim uređajima.

Trenutna verzija Control Centra nije se mnogo mijenjala od lansiranja iPhonea X 2017., stoga je promjena na neki način i očekivana. Gurman ne navodi točno što će biti drugačije no postoje različite pretpostavke.

Trenutno su audio kontrole prikazane u malom 2×2 kvadratiću u gornjem desnom kutu ekrana. Budući da je kontroliranje trenutno reproducirane glazbe često korištena funkcija, korisnici već dugo traže da se UI za Now Playing učini većim, uključuje sliku s naslovnice albuma i traku napretka, kao što se to prikazuje na Android mobitelima.

Što se tiče HomeKita, trenutno iOS sustav “inteligentno” bira do šest dodataka za prikaz u odjeljku Home u Control Centru. Također možete kliknuti na pločicu Home dvostruke širine kako biste otvorili mini-verziju aplikacije Home, s vašim omiljenim dodacima organiziranim po sobama.

No, automatski raspored često nije ono što korisnik želi, a mnogi korisnici bi htjeli ručno odabrati koje dodatke žele u Control Centru, piše 9to5Mac. U prijevodu, korisnici žele više kontrole nad svojim uređajem te se nadaju da će im iOS 18 donijeti upravo to.

Following Real Madrid’s 15th UEFA Champions League victory, the big move is about to be announced by the La Liga club. According to a report by Spanish outlet Marca, Mbappe’s transfer will be announced either on Monday or latest by Tuesday with the club having waited till the end of their campaign to announce the Frenchman’s arrival.

Real Madrid’s “Comunicado Oficial: Kylian Mbappe” is expected to be released on Monday but the player will not be presented right away,” the Marca reports read. The report further stated that Mbappe will have a record-breaking presentation at a sold out Santiago Bernabeu in July.

The reason behind the delay in the presentation is that Mbappe is currently at his national team’s training camp getting ready for the upcoming Euros. France will be facing Luxembourg and Canada in two friendlies before travelling to Germany for the month-long competition that begins on June 15.

The 2018 world champions are one of the favourites heading into the competition and will face an exciting challenge in the group stages as they have been drawn into Group D with Poland, Netherlands and Austria.

SEBI widens disclosure norms for IPOs

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has sent a 31-point advisory to investment bankers, requiring enhanced disclosures and increased due diligence on companies tapping the market for initial public offerings (IPOs).

The advisories may make life difficult for companies, bankers and legal firms alike, make offer documents bulkier and push back IPO timelines considerably. The frequent use of such advisories – which are more informal in nature and not law – may end up undermining the current ICDR (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations as well, cautioned experts.

Offer documents not in conformity with the guidelines will be returned, a mail sent to bankers last week said.

Fiat to bankers

Bankers, for instance, have been advised to ensure that any entity or person having any special right under articles of association or shareholders’ agreement (SHA) should be cancelled before filing the updated draft red herring prospectus. Until a few months ago, such rights were cancelled post listing – the objective being that all non-promoter shareholders should have equal rights once the company is listed.

In the past few months, however, the regulator has been insisting on cancelling these rights before the filing of red herring prospectus. This could mean that the shareholders, including private equity players, will forfeit their special rights even if the IPO does not go through.

“An amendment to the SHA is structured in a manner that it automatically terminates on listing or restores to the original if the IPO is withdrawn or SEBI’s final observations expire. The 3-5 weeks from filing of UDRHP until listing will now be nerve-wracking for PE investors given the uncertainty on exercising their SHA rights,” said an industry official.

Bankers have been told to intimate the Registrar of Companies (RoC) about any missing or untraceable RoC filings before filing the draft prospectus. “In a way, this is like forcing the company to approach a regulator and say you have a problem. The RoC may not be aware of these filings. Subsequent to intimation, if the RoC initiates any action, the company will not be able to defend itself,” said a banker.

Bankers have to confirm and disclose, along with justification, if the issuer company is in compliance with The Companies Act, 2013 with respect to issuance of securities since inception till the date of filing the draft prospectus. They need to confirm if any of the investors in the company is directly or indirectly related with the book running lead managers and their associates.

“Each banker will have to go through the list of all shareholders, which could be in thousands. This information will be of no real relevance to investors and simply make the offer document bulkier,” said a lawyer.

Lack of disclosures

While some of the advisories may have been driven by past missteps or lack of disclosures by companies, market watchers believe that these could have been more carefully worded and less open-ended.

“The regulator should go through a proper consultative process and amend the regulations. So many informal observations will end up undermining the sanctity of the ICDR regulations,” said a lawyer.

An email sent to SEBI did not get an immediate response.

To be clear, SEBI has been issuing these advisories through the Association of Investment Bankers of India for over two years now. Advisories that are clarificatory in nature help interpret SEBI regulations and align companies to standard market practices.

Pointers

Information overload?

Bankers to disclose if allottees under disclosed ESOPs scheme are employees only and all grant of options are as per Companies Act, 2013

Give details of employees whose Provident Fund dues are paid and unpaid

To incorporate all regulatory comments or observations in future filings

Provide details of acquisition of securities of issuer through secondary transactions

Kardiologinja moli žene da prestanu raditi ovih pet stvari ako žele zdravo srce

KARDIOVASKULARNE bolesti vodeći su uzrok smrti u svijetu, prema podacima Svjetske zdravstvene organizacije. Kardiologinja Tara Narula tvrdi da kardiovaskularne bolesti ubijaju više žena nego svi oblici raka zajedno, ali mnoge žene još uvijek nisu svjesne da su ove bolesti njihova najveća prijetnja zdravlju.

“Gotovo 45 posto žena starijih od 20 godina živi s nekim oblikom kardiovaskularne bolesti. Posebno za žene, određeni zdravstveni obrasci koji počinju već u djetinjstvu mogu dovesti do ili predvidjeti razvoj određenih srčanih bolesti u budućnosti. Na primjer, dobivanje prve menstruacije u dobi od deset godina ili ranije povećava rizik od srčanih problema. Komplikacije u trudnoći, kao što su preeklampsija i gestacijski dijabetes, također mogu biti upozoravajući znakovi”, rekla je za Today.

Ističe kako se briga o zdravlju srca može činiti zahtjevnom, ali je vrlo važna. Stoga je izdvojila pet stvari o kojima se ne može pregovarati kad je u pitanju zdravlje srca. Iako je posebno istaknula važnost brige o zdravlju srca za žene, svima savjetuje da nikad ne čine sljedećih pet stvari:

  1. Ignoriranje boli ili nelagode
  2. Uvjerenje da smo imuni na bolesti srca
  3. Zanemarivanje upravljanja stresom ili mentalnog zdravlja
  4. Nepoznavanje obiteljske povijesti bolesti
  5. Preskakanje sna.

Evo kolike kazne čekaju neodgovorne vlasnike koji ne čiste izmet svojih pasa

NEODGOVORNO ponašanje vlasnika pasa već je godinama problem u mnogim hrvatskim gradovima. Šetnje parkovima i ulicama većih gradova često narušavaju neugodni prizori i mirisi za koje su zaslužni vlasnici pasa koji odbijaju pokupiti izmet svojih ljubimaca. Ovakvo ponašanje istovremeno uništava estetiku javnih površina i predstavlja ozbiljan zdravstveni rizik za ostale građane i njihove ljubimce.

Jedinice lokalne samouprave u različitim dijelovima zemlje uvele su novčane kazne kako bi potaknule vlasnike na odgovornije ponašanje i održavanje čistoće javnih površina. U nastavku otkrivamo kako se kreću cijene novčanih kazni za neodgovorne vlasnike pasa u nekoliko hrvatskih gradova.

Zagreb

Fizičke osobe u Zagrebu mogu platiti kazne od 79 do 265 eura za prekršaje poput vođenja psa bez povodca ili neskupljanja izmeta na javnoj površini. Ove kazne odnose se na niz prekršaja koji uključuju neodgovorno ponašanje vlasnika pasa.

Osijek

U Osijeku, prema članku 136. stavku 1. točki 6. Odluke o komunalnom redu, kazne su znatno strože. Pravne osobe koje ne očiste površinu javne namjene onečišćenu njihovom životinjom mogu biti kažnjene sa 660 eura.

“Istim člankom propisano je da će se  novčanom kaznom u iznosu od 150,00 eura kazniti  i odgovorna osoba u pravnoj osobi koja počini prekršaj iz stavka 1.  navedenog članka kao i da će se novčanom kaznom u iznosu od 260,00 eura kazniti  i fizička osoba-obrtnik i osoba koja obavlja drugu samostalnu djelatnost, ako počini prekršaj iz stavka 1. navedenog članka u vezi s radom obrta ili druge samostalne djelatnosti”, poručuju iz Upravnog odjela za komunalno gospodarstvo Grada Osijeka.

Fizičke osobe koje ne pokupe izmet svoje životinje kaznit će se sa 150 eura.

Split

U Splitu novčana kazna za neskupljanje psećeg izmeta iznosi 66.36 eura. No ako odgovorni plate kaznu u roku od tri dana, iznos se smanjuje na 33.18 eura.

Varaždin

Varaždin ima jasnu odredbu u Odluci o uvjetima i načinu držanja kućnih ljubimaca i načinu postupanja s napuštenim i izgubljenim životinjama te divljim životinjama, prema kojoj je vlasnik kućnog ljubimca dužan nositi pribor za čišćenje i očistiti javnu površinu koju njegov ljubimac onečisti. Kršenje ove odredbe dovodi do kazne od 66.36 eura.

Pula

“Prema Odluci o uvjetima i načinu držanja kućnih ljubimaca i načinu postupanja s napuštenim i izgubljenim životinjama te divljim životinjama Grada Pule iz 2023. godine propisano je da će za postupanje protivno odredbama Odluke prekršitelj biti kažnjen kada pri izvođenju kućnog ljubimca na javnu površinu ne nosi pribor za čišćenje i ne očisti javnu površinu, koju njegov kućni ljubimac onečisti, iznosom od 100 eura”, poručuje Odsjek za informiranje Grada Pule.

Zašto je važno skupljati pseći izmet?

Skupljanje psećeg izmeta nije samo pitanje pristojnosti već i javnog zdravlja te očuvanja okoliša. Pseći izmet može sadržavati razne parazite i bakterije koje mogu biti štetne za ljude, osobito djecu koja se igraju na javnim površinama, ali i za ostale životinje.

Dr. Melissa Starling sa Sveučilišta u Sydneyju navodi da se psećim izmetom mogu prenositi mikroorganizmi kao što su Salmonella, E. Coli i Giardia, od kojih mogu oboljeti ljudi. Nadalje, kontakt sa psećim izmetom može dovesti i do infestacije parazitima poput glista i trakavica.

“Pseći izmet također može biti potencijalni rezervoar bakterija otpornih na antibiotike, što znači da ljudi kroz kontakt sa psećim izmetom mogu razviti bakterijske infekcije koje je teško liječiti”, objašnjava Starling.

Prema Animalabsu, kontakt sa zaraženim izmetom jedan je od glavnih načina prijenosa psećeg parvovirusa, koji pogađa pse svih dobi, ali najteže psiće.

Uz zdravstvene rizike, pseći izmet negativno utječe i na okoliš. Suprotno popularnom mišljenju, pseći izmet nije odlično gnojivo jer može zagaditi tlo i vodu, što može imati štetne posljedice za lokalni ekosustav. Kiše ispiru izmet koji nije pokupljen u kanalizacijski sustav, što može dovesti do kontaminacije vodenih površina i povećanja razine štetnih bakterija.

Kazne koje su uvedene diljem Hrvatske imaju cilj potaknuti vlasnike pasa na odgovorno ponašanje i podizanje svijesti o važnosti održavanja čistoće okoliša u kojem se nalazimo. Vlasnici koji čiste za svojim psima pokazuju poštovanje prema ostalim sugrađanima i njihovim ljubimcima te pomažu u održavanju ugodnog i sigurnog okruženja.

Neke traperice imaju ovaj detalj, zašto?

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

ČESTO u žurbi tijekom odijevanja mnogi od nas zanemare detalje na odjeći. Nedavno se na popularnoj društvenoj mreži Reddit razvila zanimljiva rasprava o jednom tajanstvenom detalju na trapericama.

Naime, korisnik je podijelio fotografiju na kojoj se jasno vidi mala petlja smještena ispod džepa uz šav nogavice postavivši pitanje zajednici: “Koja je svrha ovoga na trapericama?”

Taj detalj izazvao je znatiželju, ali i zbunjenost kod nekih koji nisu imali jasnu predodžbu o njegovoj funkciji. Zbog toga su neki odgovori bili šaljivi i duhoviti, poput “To je za štos” ili “Služi da se zakačiš za sve što ni ne znaš da postoji”.

Najčešće se nalazi na radnim hlačama

Međutim, neki su ukazali na to da se radi o takozvanoj petlji za čekić, funkcionalnom detalju karakterističnom za radne hlače. Takve hlače, osim što imaju brojne dodatne džepove, opremljene su i korisnim dodacima poput ove petlje, čineći ih idealnim odabirom za one koji rade u stolarstvu ili građevinarstvu.

Prema proizvođačima ovakvih hlača, takva petlja obično se nalazi oko 15 centimetara ispod glavnog džepa, a odmah ispod petlje često je i mali vertikalni džep. Ova petlja za čekić namijenjena je nošenju i skladištenju čekića – radnici mogu provući čekić kroz petlju, pri čemu se ručka čekića smješta u pripadajući vertikalni džep ispod.

Iako je ovaj detalj primarno namijenjen radnim hlačama, petlja za čekić može se naći i na modnim trapericama kao atraktivan detalj, što se jasno vidi na primjerima u nastavku.

Jennifer Lopez battles AI in predictable sci-fi flick

In the latest Netflix sci-fi action film ‘Atlas’, a human refers to an AI as ‘It’, but the AI takes offence, and corrects the pronoun to ‘she/her’. This scene encapsulates our time, both the scientific advancement and the ideological discussions around identity politics. However, the inclusion of such an idea in this film doesn’t necessarily add to the complexity or expand its predictable plot. The film doesn’t quite leverage anything new out of the genre and its chief utility comes mainly from its repeated attempts at coming across as forward-thinking.

At the centre is Jennifer Lopez’s Atlas Shepherd, an analyst with a deep distrust of artificial intelligence, stemming from her childhood experiences. The plot also introduces the world’s first AI terrorist, Harlan (Simu Liu), who leads a rebellion that aims to wrest power and control from humanity. The film reminds us of a time when sci-fi films with aliens and robots were dime a dozen. The premise too is as old as the hills.

Even ‘Atlas’ main trauma from her past on account of an AI mishap isn’t necessarily original. This is a protagonist we have already seen in films like I, Robot, where the central character suffers from similar trauma, and grows to resent sentient robots. We needed to see a lot more of Atlas’ melancholy beneath the veneer of determination and toughness. Lopez’s performance too doesn’t necessarily embody the supposed complexity of this character.

Pet “loših” ugljikohidrata koji su zapravo izvrsni za mozak, prema neurologu

UGLJIKOHIDRATI su često na lošem glasu. Popularnost dijeta s malo ugljikohidrata navela je mnoge da ih ograniče ili potpuno izbace iz prehrane. Međutim, ugljikohidrati su zapravo izvrsna hrana za mozak kada odaberemo one prave. Ugljikohidrati tijelu daju energiju, nešto što je našem mozgu potrebno za pravilno funkcioniranje, objašnjava neurolog dr. Augusto Miravelle za Parade.

Mozak koristi oko 20 posto kalorija koje unosimo, iako čini samo 2 posto tjelesne težine, ističe dr. Miravalle. Objasnio je da mozak sagorijeva kalorije kada razmišljamo, pamtimo, učimo i spavamo.

Preferirani izvor energije mozga je glukoza, kaže on. Glukoza je vrsta šećera koji dolazi iz ugljikohidrata koje jedemo i pijemo. Naša krv prenosi glukozu do stanica cijelog tijela radi energije, prema Klinici Cleveland.

Voće, povrće i cjelovite žitarice najbolji su ugljikohidrati za mozak

Iako su ugljikohidrati važni za funkcioniranje mozga, uključujući poboljšanje mentalnog zdravlja i usporavanje kognitivnog pada, ključno je odabrati zdrave, složene ugljikohidrate, objašnjava. Ugljikohidrate također treba uključiti u uravnoteženu prehranu koja uključuje nemasne bjelančevine i zdrave masti, uz puno tjelesne aktivnosti.

Voće, povrće i cjelovite žitarice najbolji su ugljikohidrati za naš mozak, tvrdi liječnik i znanstvenik dr. Thomas Holland.

Ipak, nisu svi ugljikohidrati jednaki. Neki se mogu činiti manje zdravima, ali zapravo su prilično dobri za naš mozak. Liječnici su sastavili sljedeći popis takvih pet “loših” ugljikohidrata koji su zapravo odlični za naše zdravlje mozga:

  1. Kruh od cjelovitog zrna
  2. Krumpir
  3. Orašasti plodovi
  4. Suho voće
  5. Prirodni zaslađivači (npr. med).

Former Real Madrid Manager Jose Mourinho Joins Turkish Club Fenerbahce As Head Coach

Istanbul, Jun 2: Former Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho will be unveiled as the new coach of Fenerbahce soccer club later Sunday, the club said. Following days of strong indications that Mourinho was to take charge of the Istanbul club, it said in a post on social media platform X early Sunday that the Portuguese manager was to attend a ceremony at its Sukru Saracoglu ground. “Saracoglu is waiting for its new coach Jose Mourinho and its great fans at 19.00!”. On Saturday night Fenerbahce had posted a video message from Mourinho, 61, in which he told Fenerbahce fans he would “see you tomorrow in Kadikoy and let’s start our journey together.” It’s Mourinho’s first job since he left Roma in January after two and a half years marked by winning the Europa Conference League in 2022 and a series of disputes with referees. Lionel Messi Goal Video: Watch Inter Miami Star Score Following Assist from Jordi Alba Against St Louis City SC in MLS 2024

The Portuguese has not worked outside of the top five European leagues since 2004, when he left Porto after winning the Champions League and joined Chelsea, which was on the rise under then-owner Roman Abramovich. Since then he has also coached Inter Milan, Real Madrid, Manchester United and Tottenham in a career filled with trophies and off-field controversy.

Fenerbahce finished second to fierce rival Galatasaray in the Turkish league this season and clashed with the Turkish soccer authorities, including by taking its team off the field in the Turkish Super Cup game in protest.

I am not a method actor says Glen Powell

How did this movie come to you?

It started out as an article 20 years ago in Texas Monthly by Skip Hollingsworth, who is just the greatest journalist ever. Every article he writes feels like a movie. I kind of stumbled upon the piece through (producer) Michael Costigan. As soon as I read it, I loved the idea of this character. It was like nothing I had come across before. I then sent it over to Rick (director Richard Linklater) to see if we could expand it into a script.

What made you feel like this would make a great movie?

There was one paragraph in the article that really stuck with me, and felt like it could maybe be our story. The paragraph was about Gary, a cop working as an undercover hit man, meeting this woman who was in danger from her abusive husband to the point that she is contemplating killing him. Gary is supposed to arrest this woman, but instead strikes up a relationship, getting involved far deeper than he was ever supposed to.

You not only star in the movie, but you produced and co-wrote it too. How was that process?

I loved it. I worked with Rick on the script, and a lot of it happened over the phone. He would write a section and then, I would write a section. We would pass it back and forth. We finally got together to work on the final draft. It worked really well, but then Rick always makes it seem easy.

You have worked with Richard before. What do you like about him as a director?

Pretty much everything. We just have a good time together. Rick is the greatest collaborator and I feel lucky that we were able to make another movie together.

Adria Arjona plays Maddy, the desperate woman who thinks she is hiring a hit man but ends up in a complicated relationship with your character. How was working with her?

The thing with Maddy Masters was that we never wanted to put her into a trope. She had to feel human and torn, and Adria really nailed it in terms of the complexities of the character and her complicated relationship with the audience.

There is quite a steamy scene in the movie. How did you feel about writing it knowing that you were going to have to be in it?

It came from it being a big part of what Gary is missing from his life. He is a guy living completely in his head. He’s binary in terms of logic, so we wanted to have Gary slowly turn off his logic, and give himself over to humanity and passion. It’s a course of action that will eventually bite him and that’s the fun part. So that scene isn’t just there for the sake of it. It shows Gary not being in his head, and by putting on this other identity which is better at all that stuff than he is. The scene is him falling in love with Ron in a way.

Poster of Hit Man

Was filming the scene a challenge?

Well, steamy scenes are always a weird day at work. But the moment is as much a fantasy for Gary as it is for Maddy. So we wanted to have the female gaze on that scene. Such scenes can be a little paint-by-numbers and boring, so we did something different with inputs from a lot of people, a lot of rehearsal and a lot of talking through everything. A large part of it is down to the legal writers and making sure everyone is comfortable. So the mystery is taken out of it by the time you actually film it.

What is your approach to acting?

I’m not a method actor, but I do try to keep a certain energy on set if I am playing a guy like this one. I mean, I never stay in character or anything like that. I’m always Glen off camera, but the fun of playing different characters is letting the lens shift a little bit; maybe you walk or talk differently. We all have multiple sides to ourselves and it’s sometimes fun to tap into that and see how the world interacts with you.

Most people will have first taken notice of you in ‘Top Gun: Maverick’, but how did you first get into acting?

I grew up in Austin, Texas, and first got into acting in school. I did some musical theatre, but that was it. I came to Hollywood when I was a teenager. I didn’t know anyone, but got lucky. I did some auditions, got some parts in movies, and here we are.

Finally, what do you think happens to Gary and Maddy beyond Hit Man?

I don’t know. Maybe they live happily ever after. Or maybe, this whole thing is in their wild past. Or, this could be the start of a beautiful love story. Who knows?

FPIs sell ₹25,586 crore in Indian equities ahead of June 4 election results

Ahead of the June 4 general election results, Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs) have aggressively sold ₹25,586 crore in Indian equities in May 2024, data with depositories showed.

With FPIs entering the event with record short positions in index futures in value terms, an election day rally cannot be ruled out on any short covering by them if Prime Minister Narendra Modi secures a comfortable third term, according to market analysts. 

FPIs have been largely selling in Indian equities this calendar year, especially in April and May. 

Data with depositories showed that May 2024 is the third month this calendar year when FPIs have been net sellers of Indian equities in the cash market. In January 2004, FPIs’ net outflows from Indian equities stood at ₹ 25,744 crore. The month of April 2024, too, saw outflows to the tune of ₹ 8,671 crore.

Taking net FPI inflows of ₹ 35,098 crore in March 2024 and February 2024 inflow count of ₹ 1,539 crore, the current calendar year has seen net equity outflows of ₹23,364 crore. 

In fact, according to a recent Nuvama report, India is the tallest country on the outflows front, alongside Canada. 

A significant chunk of FPI flows are shifting from markets with rich valuations (like India) to markets with strong companies with a presence focused on AI, Chips, and technology.

According to Nuvama research, the outperformance of China vs. India shares is likely to continue for another 20 per cent in the balance of the calendar year. For the past two months, Chinese markets have outperformed Indian peers. 

  • Also read:FPIs gradually loading upon on Indian bonds in the run up to inclusion in global bond indices

K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services, said that FPI activity in June 2024 will be crucially influenced by the election results to be announced on June 4 and the market response. “If the election results ensure political stability, the market is likely to respond positively to that. FPIs also are likely to turn buyers in such a scenario. However, in the medium term US interest rates will exert more influence on FPI flows,” he added. 

Vijayakumar said that the main trigger for the FPI selling in May 2024 has been the outperformance of the Chinese stocks. He said the Hang Seng index boomed 8 per cent in the first half of May, triggering selling in India and buying in Chinese stocks. 

Another reason was the spike in US bond yields. Whenever the US 10-year bond yields rose above 4.5 per cent, FPIs sold in emerging markets like India and moved money to bonds. These two factors triggered the selling of equity in India. 

However, Vijayakumar believes that in the medium term, US interest rates will exert more influence on FPI flows. 

Vipul Bhowar, Director, Listed Investments, Waterfield Advisors, said that the relatively high valuations and weak earnings, particularly in the financial and IT sectors where foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) have a high allocation, along with political uncertainties such as ambiguity around the outcome of the Lok Sabha elections, global risk-off sentiment and the appeal of Chinese markets, have led to FPI selling.

“Strong GDP growth, manageable inflation, political stability and the expectation that the RBI is done tightening monetary policy create a positive outlook for the Indian economy, marking a turnaround from their net selling in May,” Bhowar added. 

Currently, Nifty50 at 22,530 (as of May 31) is about 600 points down from the all-time high of 23,110 recorded in May 2024. 

It is also important to note that the DIIs bought stocks for ₹53,618 crore in the cash market until May 30. This is around ₹10,000 crore more than the FIIs selling, according to Vijayakumar. He added that the DIIs have enough funds to buy aggressively if the situation turns favourable. 

Debt market shines

While FPIs may have been net sellers of equities in May 2024, they were net buyers of debt totalling ₹8,761 crore this month. 

FPI flows into debt this calendar year at ₹53,570 crore, positioning themselves ahead of India’s inclusion in JP Morgan’s GBI-EM on June 28.

Official data showed that except for April 2024, when there were net outflows of ₹10,949 crore, all the months since September last year (when the JP Morgan announcement came) saw net FPI inflows into the debt market.

India is expected to receive FPI inflows of $20-25 billion in its debt market over the next 12 months due to its inclusion in two global bond indices (JP Morgan and Bloomberg).

Kirurg: Uobičajena navika mogla bi vas dovesti u opasnost od gubitka vida

REDOVITO održavanje zdravlja očiju ključno je za očuvanje vida i prevenciju očnih bolesti. Svakodnevna briga, oftalmološki pregledi i izbjegavanje dugotrajnog gledanja u ekrane mogu značajno doprinijeti dugoročnoj dobrobiti vida. No, uobičajena navika koju većina nas prakticira može negativno utjecati na zdravlje naših očiju, upozorava oftalmološki kirurg dr. Mark Wilkins.

Prema dr. Wilkinsu, redovito trljanje očiju može dovesti do infekcija, upala, pa čak i dugotrajnog oštećenja vida. “Svi smo krivi za trljanje očiju s vremena na vrijeme, i sve dok su vam ruke čiste, a to nije često, nećete naići na probleme. Međutim, ako vam pređe u naviku, vaše oči mogu biti izložene riziku od infekcije ili čak dugoročnog oštećenja vida”, rekao je za Daily Express.

Ako patimo od sezonskih alergija ili osjetimo komadiće prljavštine u očima, vjerojatnije je da ćemo ih trljati, kaže kirurg.

“Stanja kao što je bolest suhog oka također mogu izazvati želju za trljanjem očiju zbog svrbeža. Još jedan primjer je blefaritis – očna bolest obilježena upalom očnih kapaka. U ovom slučaju, očne vjeđe su nadražene i crvene, a na trepavicama se formiraju ljuskice nalik na perut koje padaju u oko i iritiraju ga”, pojasnio je.

Dodaje da trljanje očiju u svakom scenariju pruža olakšanje privremenim stimuliranjem proizvodnje suza. No, možda nismo svjesni štete koju ova navika može učiniti našim očima.

Često trljanje očiju može dovesti do neželjenih infekcija

Dr. Wilkins upozorava da često trljanje očiju s prevelikim pritiskom može dovesti do oštećenja rožnice. “Postoje snažni dokazi da trljanje očiju doprinosi razvoju i napredovanju ozbiljnog stanja rožnice poznatog kao keratokonus. Pacijenti s keratokonusom mogu razviti astigmatizam koji zahtijeva naočale ili kontaktne leće za korekciju vida. Stanje se može zaustaviti, ali ne i poništiti”, napominje.

To također može dovesti do neželjenih infekcija. “Kratkoročno gledano, trljanje očiju omogućuje bilo kojoj bakteriji na rukama da prođe u oči. To može dovesti do konjunktivitisa. Virusni ili bakterijski konjunktivitis može se manifestirati kao ‘ružičasto oko’ i uzrokovati upalu i bol”, upozorava kirurg.

Kako bismo prestali s ovom navikom, dr. Wilkins zaključuje: “Kapi za oči dobre su za početak, mogu se koristiti za liječenje suhih i umornih očiju, kao i za ispiranje svih stranih tijela. Učinkovite mogu biti i antialergijske. Ipak, najbolji savjet jest da redovito posjećujete optometrista. On će vam moći reći koju štetu uzrokujete, ali i doći do uzroka problema.”

Tko kaže da mačka i pas ne mogu biti najbolji prijatelji? Pogledajte ovaj video

PRIJATELJSTVO nikada nije ograničeno na spol, dob, rasu ili, u ovom slučaju, vrstu. Pronašli smo preslatki TikTok video koji dokazuje da psi i mačke mogu biti najbolji prijatelji. Naime, jedna ljubiteljica životinja, vlasnica mlade mačke i starijeg psa, odlučila je na svom profilu podijeliti njihovu zajedničku dnevnu rutinu.

U snimci, koja će vam zagrijati srce, jasno se vidi koliko je mački važno da svom najboljem prijatelju pokaže ljubav. Ona ga “čisti” dok je on gleda očima punim ljubavi.

Psu je ime Tiger, a udomljen je još 2010. godine, šest godina prije mačke kojoj su nadjenuli ime Akaiba. Tiger je oduvijek bio voljen i živio je život kakav su neki psi mogli samo sanjati. Vlasnica nije ni slutila kakvom će prijateljstvu svjedočiti kad u svoj dom dovede malenu Akaibu.

Životinje su postale nerazdvojne gotovo od trenutka kada su se upoznale, provode vrijeme zajedno i brinu jedna o drugoj. Kada je malena maca tek došla u Tigerov dom, on ju je odmah počeo njegovati, a kada je ona odrasla, počela je uzvraćati uslugu.

Generacija Z spremna je potrošiti i 1900 eura na tenisice koje izgledaju prljavo

Pri kreiranju rubrike Index Shopping nastojimo izdvajati odlične proizvode koji se i nama sviđaju te odlične akcije i popuste. Ne objavljujemo proizvode koje i sami ne bismo kupili ili smatramo da njihova promocija nije u skladu s profesionalnim standardima. Neki proizvodi u rubrici Index Shopping mogu biti sponzorirani.

MLAĐA generacija sve više preferira tenisice marke Golden Goose, koje su namjerno dizajnirane da izgledaju izlizano i prljavo. Modni trgovac Coggles pojasnio je da je “njihov prepoznatljivi stil, koji izgleda kao da su već nošene, stvoren kako bi odražavao nonšalantan stav, a ne neuredan izgled”, piše New York Post.

Iako su tenisice koje izgledaju prljavo, odnosno nošeno i pohabano, već imale svoj trenutak kod milenijalaca, prošlog ljeta počele su privlačiti pažnju generacije Z, a ove godine popularnije su nego ikad. 

Cijene popularnih tenisica Golden Goose kreću se od 295 eura na web stranici brenda i mogu narasti sve do 1890 eura. Talijanski dizajneri Francesca Rinaldo i Alessandro Gallo osnovali su brend 2000. godine, ali tenisice nisu lansirane sve do 2007., kada je model Super-Star stigao na police.

“Ne morate se osjećati krivima ako ih malo izližete”

Zoomeri se na TikToku bore protiv kritika na račun Golden Goose tenisica opravdavajući svoj izbor.

Korisnica Alicia istaknula je da je kupila tenisice upravo zbog njihova pohabanog izgleda jer je neminovno da će svaki novi par prije ili kasnije postati prljav. “Privlačnost tenisica Golden Goose leži u tome što već dolaze s određenim oštećenjima”, objasnila je. “Dizajnirane su za život i nošenje. Ne morate se osjećati krivima ako ih malo izgužvate ili izližete.”

No u komentarima se našlo i mišljenje onih koji smatraju da bi u tom slučaju bilo praktičnije kupiti rabljene tenisice.

“Nije me briga kad ih zaprljam”

Sydney je u videu objavljenom na TikToku navela isti razlog za kupnju rekavši: “Već dolaze prljave, stoga me nije briga kad ih zaprljam tijekom nošenja.” Dodala je da one “ne zahtijevaju čišćenje”, što smatra dodatnim bonusom. “To je genijalno”, zaključila je.

“Čekaj, trebaju li biti prljave?”

Korisnica Alexis objavila je video u kojem navodi da je kupila tenisice Golden Goose, a njihov izgled zbunio je neke. “Čekaj, trebaju li biti prljave?” upitao je jedan korisnik. “Jesu li već nošene?” pitao je drugi. “Cijelo vrijeme mislio sam da ljudima jednostavno nije stalo do pranja svojih tenisica, ali zapravo je to stil”, priznao je treći.

Roditelji nisu oduševljeni

Roditelji zoomera nisu oduševljeni što njihova djeca troše toliko novca na iznošene i prljave tenisice. Jedan otac rekao je svojoj kćeri da je “potpuno luda” nakon što je saznao koliko je potrošila na Golden Goose tenisice.

“Današnja mladež”, požalio se u TikTok videu. “Nevjerojatno mi je da postoji tvrtka koja izrađuje tenisice tako da izgledaju staro i iznošeno. Zašto jednostavno ne kupiš moje stare tenisice?” upitao je svoju kćer u sada viralnom videu. 

Glavni kupci ovih tenisica su mladi 

Generacija Z ne može im odoljeti bez obzira na mišljenje roditelja ili bilo koga drugog.

Izvršni direktor Golden Goosea Silvio Campara izjavio je za Financial Times u prosincu da podaci o prodaji pokazuju da su njihovi glavni kupci mladi ljudi, pri čemu se 80% može klasificirati kao pripadnike generacije Z ili milenijalce.

A Musical Journey Through Texas and Mexico

Willie Nelson has never in his long life not wanted to be making music.

After 2023 saw him celebrate his 90th birthday with an epic two-night concert celebration at the Hollywood Bowl, get inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and release two studio albums along with the usual constant touring, 2024 finds him as unretired as ever, with Friday’s release of “The Border.”

It’s his 152nd album, counting live collections and collaborations, according to Texas Monthly, which recently took on the titanic task of ranking them (“The Border” is No. 55).

While his last studio album, “Bluegrass,” explored the music of Kentucky, the new one — produced by longtime collaborator Buddy Cannon and released by Sony’s Legacy Recordings on streaming, CD and vinyl — is firmly planted in his native Texas and its stark southern borderlands.

Inflections of Mexican music have run through almost all of Nelson’s work, but he occasionally leans into it, as he did with the 1998 masterpiece “Teatro.”

He does the same — sort of — with “The Border,” whose best tracks have heavy doses of the sounds of Mexico.

That includes the stark, dark, title track, written by Nelson favorite Rodney Crowell with Allen Shamblin and sung from the perspective of a Border Patrol agent. It begins like a Western with a standoff between the law and the cartels.

“There’s a price on the head of every Border Patrol,” Nelson sings.

But then comes a shift, when the agent despairs for his life and his family and empathizes with the people he takes into custody.

“From the shacks and the shanties come the hungry and poor,” he sings, “some to drown at the crossing some to suffer no more.”

Nelson delivers the lines with a darkly direct rasp reminiscent of the final recordings of his Highwaymen bandmate Johnny Cash.

Elsewhere he employs the jazz-inspired vocals, developed decades ago, that have served him so well in his elder years, like a pitcher who has lost his fastball but can still get guys out with change-ups and curves.

Retail investors bet big on India derivatives as foreigners balk

Indian retail investors are turning most bullish on stock derivatives ahead of the outcome of the country’s elections next week, even as foreigners are treading cautiously. 

  • Also read: Retail investors need a derivatives de-addiction

Individual investors, including high net-worth traders, added more than 1,00,000 long contracts in index futures on Thursday, taking their net positioning to the most bullish levels on record, data compiled by Bloomberg showed. In contrast, foreigners turned most pessimistic.

That reflects higher risk-taking by millions of retail investors looking for financial gains. The Indian stock market is headed for a ninth year of gains, boosted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s pro-growth policies, and one of the world’s fastest economic growth rates. Modi is widely expected to win a third term. 

Retail and HNI investors have been “super bullish” on Indian equities, and have opted for riskier positioning during key events, such as earnings season, monetary policy reviews and now the elections, according to Abhilash Pagaria, who heads alternative and quantitative research at Nuvama Wealth Management Ltd.

Global funds have largely been cautious in cash as well as the derivative markets ahead of India’s seven-phase election that ends on June 1. Market participants will get their first hint of the likely outcome later that day when the exit polls are released. Election results are due on June 4. 

Foreigners have sold $3.1 billion of stocks in the cash market this month, taking the net market outflow this quarter to $4.2 billion, according to Bloomberg-compiled data. That comes amid concerns spurred by reports of low voter turnouts and close contests in some states.

Global funds’ net positioning in index derivatives turned most pessimistic on record on Thursday, as they added 86,482 short contracts, while unwinding more than 2,00,000 long contracts, Bloomberg-compiled data showed.

Liječnik upozorava na dodatak prehrani koji može naštetiti zdravlju jetre

DODACI prehrani postali su dio zdravstvenih rutina mnogih ljudi jer nude razne dobrobiti, poput poboljšanja prehrane, povećanja razina energije i podrške za razne tjelesne funkcije. Mogu biti osobito korisni u rješavanju specifičnih nedostataka ili zdravstvenih stanja gdje sama dijeta možda nije dovoljna. Na primjer, dodaci vitamina D često se preporučuju osobama s ograničenim izlaganjem suncu, a dodaci željeza mogu biti ključni za one koji pate od anemije.

Međutim, važno je zapamtiti da više nije uvijek bolje. Uzimanje visokih doza dodataka prehrani, čak i onih koji se općenito smatraju bezopasnima, može dovesti do ozbiljnih zdravstvenih rizika. Kada se uzimaju često ili u prekomjernim količinama, neki dodaci mogu izazvati štetne učinke utječući na vitalne organe poput jetre i bubrega. Ti organi igraju ključnu ulogu u detoksikaciji tijela i održavanju cjelokupnog zdravlja.

Jetra obrađuje hranjive tvari i filtrira toksine, a bubrezi upravljaju uklanjanjem otpada te reguliraju ravnotežu tekućina i elektrolita. Preopterećenje ovih organa visokim dozama određenih dodataka prehrani može dovesti do oštećenja i potencijalno ozbiljnih zdravstvenih problema. Stoga je liječnik dr. Erik Natkin upozorio na jedan takav dodatak koji može našteti zdravlju jetre.

Prekomjerna konzumacija ekstrakta zelenog čaja povezana je s akutnim zatajenjem jetre

Ekstrakt zelenog čaja poznat je po visokoj koncentraciji epigalokatehin galata (EGCG), snažnog antioksidansa koji se često povezuje s raznim zdravstvenim prednostima, uključujući gubitak težine. Mnogi ljudi uključuju ekstrakt zelenog čaja u svoju prehranu kako bi iskoristili te prednosti. Međutim, važno je biti svjestan da konzumacija ekstrakta zelenog čaja u velikim dozama može biti štetna.

“Studije su povezale prekomjernu konzumaciju ekstrakta zelenog čaja s toksičnošću jetre i akutnim zatajenjem jetre”, rekao je dr. Natkin za SheFinds. Oštećenje jetre obično je rezultat negativne reakcije tijela na povišene razine katehina, aktivnih spojeva u zelenom čaju.

Visoke koncentracije katehina mogu uzrokovati oksidativni stres i upalu u stanicama jetre što može dovesti do značajnog oštećenja jetre. Stoga, iako ekstrakt zelenog čaja može biti koristan, umjerenost je ključna za izbjegavanje ozbiljnih zdravstvenih rizika.

“Dosta mu je”: Reakcija zlatnog retrivera na bebin plač nasmijala je internet

DOLAZAK novorođenčeta je veliki šok za cijelu obitelj, a to uključuje i naše kućne ljubimce kojima treba vremena da se naviknu na novu dinamiku. Korisnik TikToka, Michael Rivera, nedavno je dobio kćer, a u jučerašnjoj objavi otkrio je kako je njegov zlatni retriver Biscuit reagirao na prinovu u obitelji.

Na viralnoj snimci možemo čuti bebin plač, a Biscuitov osuđujući pogled, koji je upućen njegovom vlasniku, govori više od tisuću riječi.

“Mislim da će Biscuitu trebati vremena da se navikne na svoju najnoviju mlađu ljudsku sestru”, napisao je vlasnik u objavi.

Viralnu objavu pregledalo je više od tri milijuna ljudi, a mnogi od njih suosjećaju sa zlatnim retriverom.

“Biscuit ne priča, ali definitivno vam nešto govori”, “Mislili ste da je ovo dobra ideja?”, “Biscuit nije pristao na ovo”, “Dosta mu je”, “Taj pogled govori sve”, samo su neki od komentara korisnika TikToka.

Drug tale that drags its way to a dead end

Nadirshah started off his filmmaking journey with two successive hits, Amar Akbar Anthony (2015) and Kattappanayile Rithwik Roshan (2016), which both primarily focused on his strength—comedy. But ever since then, Nadirshah’s career graph has seen a steep fall with his next three films failing to make any impact. His latest release Once Upon a Time In Kochi has him collaborating with Raffi, also known for his prowess in handling comedy. The duo has taken the growing drug menace in Kochi as the crux to spin a story, covering all commercial ingredients—romance, dance, humour, action, twists—but nothing in the right proportions.

The film starts off with a song featuring hand puppets with images of the lead pair, Devika Sanjay and Mubin M Rafi. But don’t ask anything about its relevance. In hindsight, it is one of the most bizarre openings for a film like this. Haibi (Mubin) and Janaki (Devika) were in a relationship during their IELTS coaching days, but they broke up midway after she moved to the UK for higher studies.

When they meet a few years later, Haibi learns that Janaki is into drug peddling to repay her loans. Haibi, who still nurses feelings for her, also joins her without realising the risks attached. Parallely, Anand Das (Arjun Ashokan), a forthright young cop, is on a mission to wipe out drugs from the city. The conflict begins when these three characters meet and their plans get intertwined.

Srceparajuće upozorenje: Ne ostavljajte psa kad napušta svijet, očima će vas tražiti

SVAKI vlasnik psa strepi od dana kada će se morati oprostiti od svog vjernog prijatelja. Iako su takvi trenuci emocionalno teški, tiktokerica Syd upozorila je koliko je važno ne pustiti pse da umru sami.

“Ovo je upozorenje za sve vlasnike kućnih ljubimaca”, rekla je na početku videa, a potom je prepričala što je pročitala u jednom članku.

“Kada dođe trenutak da vaš ljubimac napusti ovaj svijet, kod veterinara možete odabrati hoćete li biti uz njega ili ćete pričekati u čekaonici”, dodala je.

Najpotresnije joj je bilo saznanje da psi u posljednjim trenucima traže svoje vlasnike.

“Ako mislite da ćete to moći izdržati, svakako ostanite uz svojeg ljubimca. Njegove će oči tražiti vas, nemojte ga ostaviti samog”, upozorila je.

Unatoč tome što sama nikad nije izgubila kućnog ljubimca, Syd je rekla da je to iskustvo jednako gubitku bliske osobe.

Video je skupio gotovo pola milijuna pregleda, a vlasnici su u odjeljku za komentare podijelili svoja iskustva.

“Odmah nakon što su mu dali injekciju, pas je pogledao prema meni i zavijao do kraja. Nikada neću zaboraviti taj zvuk”, komentirala je jedna osoba.

“Kad je moj pas umirao, nije imao energije i nije se micao, ali neposredno prije smrti, mahnuo je repom i podignuo glavu te pogledao prema meni”, kaže druga.

“Ostao sam sa svojim psom do kraja i to je bila najtraumatičnija stvar ikada”, prisjetio se treći.

Hugh Jackman on challenges of playing Wolverine

WASHINGTON: Hugh Jackman, who is known for his roles in ‘Van Helsing’, ‘Prisoners’, ‘Les Miserables’, among others, talked about the challenges of reprising his role as Wolverine in the upcoming ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ film, reported Deadline.

“When I came back to it, it was really fun and I was thrilled. My body was a little sore at the beginning, but I was thrilled that my body was still responding. And I realized how good it is for your brain. But the hardest bit…the food,” said Jackman. He’s always had trouble bulking up.

“I have to eat a lot. For me, for my body type, I’m naturally skinny. To get the size on, that’s the hardest bit. That’s the bit that does my head in,” he added.

Earlier, Ryan Reynolds said he “couldn’t believe” the physicality he saw from Jackman.

“Just the sheer relentlessness that you dedicated yourself towards stunts, choreography. It was the first time I’d ever seen how invaluable a background in song and dance is when you are doing an action movie,” he said.

“You hit your marks in those fight scenes with speed and confidence, the likes of which I have never seen. I don’t care if you were 25, 35, 45 or 55. It was lightning.”

“Watching you do what just looked like a clinic on stunt work was one of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen in my life,” Reynolds added.

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ hits theaters on July 26, reported Deadline.

Dijetetičarka tvrdi da je ovo je najbolji čaj koji možete piti za smanjenje upale

AKUTNE i kronične upale moguće je kontrolirati načinom života. Kako biste to ostvarili, važno je dati prioritet kvalitetnom spavanju, obratiti pozornost na to kako upravljate stresom te koju hranu i piće konzumirate. Dijetetičarka Roxana Ehsani otkrila je koju vrstu čaja treba piti za smanjenje upale u tijelu, a koja je prema njoj najbolja.

Ehsani je kao najbolju vrstu čaja za smanjenje upale izdvojila čaj od đumbira. Ovaj aromatičan čaj “bogat je antioksidativnim i protuupalnim spojevima koji se mogu boriti protiv upale”, tvrdi dijetetičarka.

Đumbir je poznat po tome što smiruje mučninu u želucu, ali to je samo jedna od dobrobiti koja se povezuje s njim. Kako prenosi Eating Well, đumbir sadrži bioaktivne spojeve, uključujući gingerol i shogaol, koji imaju antioksidativna i protuupalna svojstva. Istraživanje objavljeno u časopisu Molecules 2022. godine pokazalo je da ovi spojevi mogu potaknuti prirodni antioksidativni obrambeni sustav tijela za neutralizaciju štetnih molekula koje mogu oštetiti stanice i izazvati upalu.

Zašto je đumbir učinkovit u smanjenju upale?

“Đumbir je posebno učinkovit zato što može smanjiti simptome upale poput boli, vrućice i oteklina”, ističe Ehsani. Dodaje da “neka istraživanja sugeriraju da bi đumbir mogao biti jednako učinkovit kao i ibuprofen kad je u pitanju prirodno ublažavanje boli”.

Isto tako, studija objavljena u časopisu Nutrients iz 2020. godine pokazala je da suplementacija đumbirom također može smanjiti tjelesnu masnoću te pomoći u snižavanju razine kolesterola i šećera u krvi, što su sve faktori rizika za razvoj upalnih stanja.

Dijetetičarka ističe da u čaju od đumbira možete uživati na više načina. “Bez obzira uživate li u vrućem, hladnom, umiješanom u mocktail ili smoothie, čaj od đumbira odličan je izbor za prirodno protuupalno olakšanje”, zaključuje dijetetičarka.

Sijedo krzno, mutne oči… Evo kako prepoznati da vaš pas stari

STARENJE ljubimaca nikako nije nešto s čime se volimo susretati, ali je neizbježno. Vrlo često nismo ni svjesni da je naš ljubimac počeo pokazivati znakove starenja, naprosto zato što o tome ne razmišljamo. Kao i mi, naši ljubimci počet će pokazivati znakove starenja kada za to dođe vrijeme – što je još zanimljivije, neki od tih znakova bit će veoma slični našima.

Vaš pas, ovisno o veličini i vrsti, počet će pokazivati prve znakove starenja već od pete do osme godine života. Prvi znakovi koje ćete primijetiti mogli bi biti veća smirenost psa, dulje spavanje, sijede dlake oko njuške ili kraće vrijeme igranja. Moguće je da će vaš pas s godinama imati mnogo manje snage i volje za trčanjem za lopticom koju mu bacate. No, to je sasvim normalno. Ni od svoje bake nećete očekivati da trči za vama onako kako je to mogla kada ste bili malo dijete, a ona dvadeset godina mlađa.

Znakovi starenja kod pasa

Za većinu pasa sasvim je normalno da počnu pokazivati znakove starenja s navršenih oko osam godina starosti. Općenito, veće pasmine stare mnogo ranije od onih manjih. Primjerice, ako imate zlatnog retrivera i maltezera koji su iste dobi, velika je vjerojatnost da će se, kada navrše osam godina, vaši psi vidno razlikovati. Maltezer će vjerojatno još uvijek imati mnogo energije za skakanje, dok će vaš zlatni retriver polagano sve više preferirati ležanje pokraj vaših nogu.

Godina u kojoj će vaš pas pokazivati znakove starenja ovisit će o genetskim i okolišnim čimbenicima, kao što su njegovo cjelokupno zdravlje i njega, razine tjeskobe i količina istrošenosti zglobova. Uključivanje psa u mnoge zabavne aktivnosti i pružanje dovoljne mentalne i fizičke stimulacije tijekom godina može osigurati da njegov mozak ostane zdrav i u poznim godinama.

Najočitiji znak starenja, dakako, jest pojava bijelog ili sivog krzna, ali točan razlog zašto im krzno sijedi nije uvijek povezan samo sa starenjem. Kao i kod ljudi, moguće je da to ima veze s anksioznošću pa se preporučuje pripaziti na sve što bi psu moglo uzrokovati nelagodu.

Mnoga stanja moguće je olakšati pravilnom njegom

Osim ovog jasno vidljivog znaka starenja, tu su i nešto suptilniji znakovi na koje treba pripaziti, kao što su oči koje postaju mutnije i gubitak mišićne mase. Moguće je da će vaš pas s godinama biti smeteniji, više piti i mokriti. Ipak, u velikoj većini slučajeva, to su problemi koje će biti moguće riješiti uz veterinarovu pomoć.

Iako će se ti znakovi češće javljati kod pasa starije dobi, nemojte odmah odustati i samo ih pripisati starenju. Moguće je da se njihovi temeljni uzroci mogu liječiti, pa bi bilo dobro da se savjetujete s veterinarom i svom četveronožnom prijatelju omogućite dug i kvalitetan život.

18 najboljih namirnica koje možete jesti kada vam je mučno

NEMA sumnje da ste barem jednom u životu iskusili mučninu. Što učiniti u takvoj situaciji? Trebamo li jesti ili će to samo pogoršati situaciju?

“Kad vam je mučno, hrana vam je vjerojatno zadnja na pameti. Međutim, važno je jesti kada osjećate mučninu, jer u suprotnom možete pogoršati situaciju. Također, vrlo je važno ostati hidriran kada imate mučninu i dodati elektrolite u vodu ako povraćate”, izjavila je savjetnica za prehranu Brittany Lubeck.

Ukratko, dobra je ideja pojesti nešto kad vam je mučno. Ipak, nemojte birati bilo koju namirnicu. U nastavku donosimo popis hrane koju su odobrili nutricionisti.

  • Grčki jogurt
  • Đumbir
  • Rafinirani ugljikohidrati (bijela riža, dvopek)
  • Paprena metvica (menta)
  • Pečena piletina
  • Lubenica
  • Jaja
  • Batat
  • Banane
  • Čaj
  • Jabuke
  • Komorač
  • Kiselo zelje (sirovo)
  • Limun
  • Ananas
  • Smoothie od preporučenog voća
  • Krekeri
  • Đumbirovo pivo
