Lives at stake! Abortion in Nepal

There is perhaps no other issue people are divided over more than abortion. Be it social norms or religious affiliations, the issue challenges you to examine your beliefs and principles at the deepest human level. There is a question of personal responsibility and personal choice, but no matter where your conscience lies, when the economics of survival is concerned, is there really a choice? In Nepal , even before the abortion reform law was passed in 2002, the strict abortion laws with lengthy prison sentences didn't deter women, largely poor and illiterate, from seeking abortion. They instead risked their lives at the hands of sudenis, quacks and untrained nurses and doctors. Studies show that over 50 percent of Nepalis in rural areas are still unaware of the legalization of abortion even after five years of the reform law. Furthermore, women are still resorting to clandestine abortion due to economic hardship and lack of access to abortion services.
Present Law on Abortion in Nepal
Abortion is legal in Nepal on the following grounds:

Up to 12 weeks of gestation for any woman
Up to 18 weeks of gestation if pregnancy results from rape or incest
At any time during pregnancy, with the advice of a medical practitioner or if the physical or mental health or life of the pregnant woman is at risk or if the foetus is deformed and incompatible with life.
Abortion will be punishable on the following two conditions:
• Sex selective abortion
• Abortion without the consent of the pregnant woman

Rose Water How to Make Your Own

Rose water is used in cosmetics for its lovely scent, but also because it has light astringent properties. As the gentlest of all astringents, rose water is often used as toner for fair and dry skin.

Rose Water, Method

This recipe is the more traditional way to prepare rose water. Though it's a little more involved, its fun to do and the results are outstanding. You can make a quart of excellent-quality rose water in about 40 minutes. However, if you simmer the water too long, you will continue to produce distilled water but the rose essence will become diluted. Your rose water will smell more like plain distilled water, rather than the heavenly scent of roses.

Be sure you have a brick and heat-safe stainless steel or glass quart bowl ready before you begin.

Ingredients:

· 2-3 quarts fresh roses or rose petals

· water

· ice cubes or crushed ice

1. In the center of a large pot (the speckled blue canning pots are ideal) with an inverted lid (a rounded lid), place a fireplace brick. On top of the brick place the bowl. Put the roses in the pot; add enough flowers to reach the top of the brick. Pour in just enough water to cover the roses. The water should be just above the top of the brick.

2. Place the lid upside down on the pot. Turn on the stove and bring the water to a rolling boil, then lower heat to a slow steady simmer. As soon as the water begins to boil, toss two or three trays of ice cubes (or a bag of ice) on top of the lid.

3. You've now created a home still! As the water boils the steam rises, hits the top of the cold lid, and condenses. As it condenses it flows to the center of the lid and drops into the bowl. Every twenty minutes, quickly lift the lid and take out a tablespoon or two of the rose water. It's time to stop when you have between a pint and a quart of water that smells and tastes strongly like roses.

Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA)

People are spending a lot and it is good thing that people are spending on technology, education, health, communication and lifestyle but is it a good sign that they are doing all these in credit? Many times I have heard that people take loans to buy a car just because their neighbor bought a car, or a computer just for the sake of their kids. Now, is it really worth to be in debt even when it is not really necessary?

Nowadays, you can get a huge amount of credit from your credit cards and banks to fulfill each and every materialistic need of yours. But it is not only your unnecessary need fulfillment that runs you up in a large debt. There are many unexpected situation that you run into where a debt is really a necessity to get you out of the trouble. Unplanned building work, unexpected taxes, bills and fees, and forgotten birthdays and weddings and many others contributed to financial difficulties.

But what after you are in debt? What if you don’t have money to pay to your creditors? They will surely take you to the court and things will get more difficult after that. Now, here is when IVA comes in to play. IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) helps you to find your way out of debt. It is more than just some debt management programs. It runs over a 60 month period. What actually happens is that you write everything that you have coming in and everything that you have going out, a reasonable monthly plan is then agreed on and the company managing your IVA will then negotiate with your creditors. Once the repayment has been agreed upon everything becomes legal. But it’s not always that the negotiation is a success. Many people are seeking for IVA just to get rid of their debts easily. But IVAs are just for those who are really in need of help and who are unable to clear all their debts at once. The mail advantage that I saw with IVA is that the creditors often write off a lot of your debt. The arrangement is made in such a way that even if you haven’t fully paid off your loan amount once you have made repayments for 60 months you are free of debt. So, if you are really struggling with debt then IVA may be your only way out.

Pregnant? Eat apples and fish!

A new study has found that women who consume apple and fish during pregnancy may lessen the risk of their babies developing asthma or allergic diseases. The study, conducted at the University of Aberdeen, UK, found that pregnant women who ate the most apples were most likely to protect their children from asthma, as compared to children of mothers who had the lowest apple intake. The study also found that children of mothers who ate fish once or more a week were at a lesser risk of eczema than children of mothers who never ate fish. The study did not find any defensive outcome against asthma or allergic diseases from many other foods, including vegetables, fruit juice, citrus or kiwi fruit, whole grain products, fat from dairy products or margarine or other low-fat spreads.

How can I forget it?

After all the things that we did together, after all the time we spent together, after all the ups and downs in life now you want me to forget everything. How can I? Just tell me how? I dare you if only you can answer this from your heart I promise I will forget everything. I will forget that I had loved someone so truly. I will forget that I even met you. I will forget that you were once part of my life. I will forget that there is no such thing in this world like love. Love is just a lousy word which has no meaning in itself. All the people who think they love each other have to ask themselves if they find someone who they think is more beautiful and more caring than the one who is with you, will you still love him/her? Will you turn back and see what will happen to the one you loved so madly before you even know this person. The point in my case is not even that. I am left alone for someone who she has known just for merely twenty days, do you believe this? How can someone kill somebody’s feeling for somebody else in such a short period of time? And on top of that I never left anything behind to make her happy. She was one of the happiest people when she is around me. But I don’t know how she changed her mind in a day. I have realized now that the problem between us is that we are far from each other and she thinks that she doesn’t want long distance relationship. All I could ask is why? What’s with all the promises, all the tears which you shed for me, what about that? Was that just to get some sympathy and make me love you more till the time you don’t get somebody? Fuck you if that was what it is. I am never been hurt so badly in my life the way I am feeling now. Nothing has ever made me so frustrated in life than the thing you have done to me. I just couldn’t figure it out why? What was so bold reason? I just won’t believe if you say you are in love with this guy. That will be the big joke of your life. It’s not a love if you can hurt someone so badly who you loved crazily and create feeling for new person. Its not love if you can forget that easily. It’s definitely not…

Goodness of low calorie soup

Wondering how to stop all that calorie-rich food from going down your throat at mealtimes? Well, the answer is simple - start having low calorie soup. A study conducted by researchers at Penn State, US, has shown that people who have low calorie soup before a meal tend to reduce their total calorie intake by 20 percent, when compared to the times they did not eat soup. Julie Flood, doctoral student in nutritional sciences at Penn State and co-author of the research, said the work added weight to earlier studies on the subject. “Consuming a first course of low calorie soup in a variety of forms, can help with managing weight as is shown in this research and earlier studies. Using this strategy allows people to get an extra course at the meal while eating fewer total calories.”

Benefits of Water Birth

The Water Birth has finally made its foray into India . This form of delivering a baby is very safe, and results in less labour pain. During a Water Birth, a mother gives birth to her child in a pool or tub full of water. Parents who are considering this option need not worry - there is no chance of the baby's death due to asphyxiation or drowning.
Immersion in warm water raises the body temperature and causes the blood vessels to dilate, resulting in increased blood circulation. Thus, larger quantities of blood and oxygen are able to reach the uterine muscles. A water birth also allows a mother to manoeuvre her body during the labour process, with the water offsetting the pressure experienced during childbirth. The hydrostatic pressure of water relieves the discomforts of contractions and relaxes the body, which in turn stimulates the release of endorphins - the body's natural painkillers.
