Some interesting news that I came across today..
Apparently too much processed food is bad for your mental health.
"A diet heavy in processed and fatty foods increases the risk of depression, according to British research published on Monday.
Researchers at University College London also found that a diet including plenty of fresh vegetables, fruit and fish could help prevent the onset of depression.
They compared participants -- all civil servants -- who ate a diet largely based on "whole" foods with a second group who mainly ate fried food, processed meat, high-fat dairy products and sweetened desserts." I guess that McSpicy isn't really a happy pill for many people as they claim it to be after all.
And in other news, the bear kingdom has joined the Global War on Terror.
Bear kills militants in Kashmir03 November 2009 | 06:16:49 PM | Source: AFP/SBS
"Indian police have credited a wild bear for killing two senior militants in the disputed region of Kashmir, where insurgents have fought Indian rule for decades.
The bodies of the rebels were recovered on Monday from forests in the southern district of Kulgam, a police spokesman said.
"The two had been mauled to death by a wild bear," he said, adding two rifles were found near their bodies.
The men - known by the names Saifullah and Qaiser - were members of the region's most powerful group Hizbul Mujahedin.
They had been active in Indian Kashmir for more than six years, police said.
Armed rebels in the Muslim-majority region often use the densely forested mountains as a hideout."
Just for kicks..
