विवाह के बाद पति पत्नी जीवनभर के सफर में पार्टनर बन जाते हैं। भविष्य की इस यात्रा में कई खट्टे मीठे पल आते हैं। इस दौरान कभी हंसी मजाक, तो कभी रोमांस और कई दफा छोटी मोटी तकरार भी होती है। मगर जब सामने वाले की कमियां गिनाना आदत में शुमार हो जाता है तब विवाह की ये गाड़ी डगमगाने लगती है। कई बार छोटी सी बात पर शुरू हुई बहस बड़े झगड़े का रूप ले लेती है। झगड़े के दौरान इंसान कई बार ऐसा कुछ कह जाता है जो…

Pope Francis in Thailand to kick off two-country Asian tour
Bangkok (AFP): Pope Francis arrived in Thailand on Wednesday greeted by cheering faithful, the first leg of an Asian tour that will sweep in Japan and carry a message of interreligious dialogue and nuclear disarmament. The pontiff landed just after midday (0500 GMT) at Bangkok’s Don Mueang International Airport, where he stepped off the plane and was met by his missionary cousin Sister Ana Rosa, who has lived in Thailand for decades. “I am happy to see you and that you are able to be my translator,” he told her, as…
Omega-3 oils boost attention as much as ADHD drugs in some children
LONDON (Reuters) – Omega-3 fish oil supplements can improve attention in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) just as much as drug treatments, but only in those whose blood levels of omega-3 are low, trial results showed on Wednesday. Researchers in Britain and Taiwan who conducted the placebo-controlled trial with 92 children said their findings suggest a “personalized medicine” approach should be adopted in this and other psychiatric conditions. “The omega-3 supplements only worked in children that had lower levels of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) in their blood, as if…
NASA detects building blocks of life in two meteorites
A team of scientists says it has found sugar molecules – crucial to the development of life on Earth – in two different fallen meteorites. The discovery suggests that meteor impacts may have delivered the sugars to Earth, per a NASA press release. One of the sugars is the RNA component ribose, a key biological building block, and the discovery that it may have come from space complicates our understanding of how life emerged. The scientists, who hail from NASA and a trio of Japanese universities, took extra steps to…
Trump-Cook ‘bromance’ culminates with visit to Apple factory
WASHINGTON (AFP) – President Donald Trump’s visit to Apple’s Texas manufacturing plant represents a truce in the White House war on Silicon Valley and an unlikely “bromance” with chief executive Tim Cook. The visit will give the US leader a chance to hail American manufacturing and step back, at least temporarily, from his tirade against big technology firms. Apple announced in September it would keep making its Mac Pro computer in the United States, after obtaining tariff exemptions for some components in the high-end computers. The developments show an unusual…
Research proves regular tea drinkers have healthier brains
Regular tea drinkers have better organized brain regions—something associated with healthy cognitive function—compared to non-tea drinkers, according to new research. According to World Economic Forum, “Our results offer the first evidence of positive contribution of tea drinking to brain structure, and suggest that drinking tea regularly has a protective effect against age-related decline in brain organization,” explains Feng Lei, an assistant professor in the psychological medicine department at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine at the National University of Singapore. Past studies have demonstrated that tea intake is beneficial…
US probe faults Uber, human error in self-driving car crash
WASHINGTON (AFP) – A US investigation into the death of a pedestrian struck by a self-driving Uber car faulted driver inattention along with “inadequate” safety measures implemented by the company. The National Transportation Safety Board said the “immediate cause” of the March 2018 accident was that the driver — able to take the controls from the autonomous car at any time — “was visually distracted throughout the trip by a personal cell phone.” The report released late Tuesday also concluded that Uber’s “inadequate safety risk assessment procedures, ineffective oversight of…
