Follow an expert's tips to make your wardrobe stylish and glamorous. Some glamorous designs that can help elevate style statement in summer are: ONTARIO - Nissan made history at the recent Le Mans test day by becoming the first manufacturer of the modern era to run a car at Circuit de la Sarthe intentionally with no rear view mirrors. "Garage 56 is unique in motor racing where the organisers have allowed manufacturers or private entrants to come and do something completely different," said NISMO Global Head of Brand, Marketing & Sales, Darren Cox. "Once again, the ACO should be applauded for that but I've got to tell you that it is a huge task. The car is full of innovation, from the three cylinder 400 BHP DIG-T R engine to the fact it is the first mirror-less race car of the modern era. ZEOD is a big task but it has been a crucial stepping-stone towards our LM P1 project. What we learn here provides a huge data bank for our engineers as they develop the new Nissan GT-R LM NISMO." The rear view mirror was actually developed through motorsport with the inaugural Indianapolis 500 winner Ray Haroun using a mirror for the first time in 1911 aboard his Marmon Wasp. With four different classes and dramatic closing speeds at the Le Mans 24 Hours, drivers having awareness of the surrounding traffic is imperative. Nissan has taken inspiration from its Nissan Safety Shield and Nissan Smart Mirror for the road to develop systems aboard the revolutionary Nissan ZEOD RC. The electric prototype is already set to break new ground by becoming the first car at Le Mans to complete an entire 8.5 mile lap of the Circuit da la Sarthe on nothing but electric power. I CONTD.

A one-of-a-kind relaxing zodiac spa treatment is just the thing for you, suggests Purvaja Sawant. In a country obsessed with astrology and horoscopes, people often refer to their zodiac signs when it comes to things like starting a new business venture or tying the knot. Ask Pooja Bedi, a socialite and spa lover, if she'd indulge in this treatment and she says, "If the treatment offers me a valid and scientific reason as to why they have specific therapies for the various zodiac signs, then I don't mind trying. After all, I'm a complete Spa baby! It definitely wouldn't hurt to try this kind of treatment." So for all of you zodiac junkies, who love devouring Linda Goodman books, there's an interesting mix of spa therapies that have hit the world of wellness based on your zodiac. What could be more exclusive than a spa treatment designed and customised specifically keeping your sun sign in mind? While zodiac spa treatments are popular in honeymoon destinations like Malaysia, this concept has now been introduced in Mumbai. Filmmaker Kamaal Amrohi's granddaughter Tabeer Amrohi, director of her own spa, has designed zodiac spa treatments along with a team of astrologers. She says, "We believe there is a connection between the zodiac and the body. So all our massages are specific and target problem areas that affect each sun sign." For those who don't know, according to astrology, every zodiac sign has a weak body point or organ that is prone to disease or pain. OBESE WOMEN URGED TO LOSE WEIGHT BEFORE PREGNANCY WASHINGTON ; Obese mothers are likely to give birth to babies that are up to 17 percent smaller than they should have been, making them more vulnerable to diseases, according to a new University of Illinois study. Even if they eat a healthy diet when they are pregnant, their babies will develop in an unhealthy environment that places the infants at risk for future health problems, researchers behind the study said. “We can see fat sequestered in the placentas of obese mothers when it should be going to the baby to support its growth. The nutrient supply region in the placenta of an obese mother is half the size of that of a normal-weight mother, even when both are eating the same healthy diet,” said Yuan-Xiang Pan, a U of I professor of nutrition. Pan blames what he calls the obesogenic environment of the mother, which includes increased triglycerides, high levels of the hormone leptin, and elevated amounts of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs) circulating in the obese expectant mother’s body. Triglyceride and NEFA levels are nearly twice as high in obese mothers, even when they consume healthy diets during pregnancy, he said. “My advice is, lose weight well before you become pregnant,” Pan said. In the study, the scientist compared the placentas of obese rats fed a healthy diet throughout their pregnancies with the placentas of obesity-resistant rats fed the same diet. “Although the obese females didn’t gain much weight on the healthy diet, the obesogenic environment remained, and it affected nutrient transport regulation in the placenta,” he said. As a result, obese mothers gave birth to babies that were up to 17 percent smaller than they should have been. The consequences for those infants may be lifelong, making them more susceptible to disease, he noted. Pan, an epigeneticist, was able to demonstrate for the first time that the DKK1 gene regulates certain aspects of lipid metabolism in the placenta through the WNT signaling pathway.

Drinking a glass of red wine could help you stay slim LONDON : U.S. researchers have found a compound in red wine that can help control obesity. The substance, piceatannol, delays the generation of young fat cells and prevents them from growing into mature ones. It is also believed to protect the body from heart and neurodegenerative diseases, as well as cancer. The compound blocks insulin’s ability to activate genes that carry out further stages of fat cell formation. The agent found in wine is also thought to protect the body from heart and neurodegenerative diseases and cancer, according to researchers at Purdue University, Indiana, USA. “In the presence of piceatannol you can see delay or complete inhibition of young fat cells,” the Daily Mail quoted lead researcher Dr Kee-Hong Kim as saying. “Piceatannol alters the timing of gene expressions, gene functions and insulin action during adipogenesis - the process in which young fat cells become mature fat cells,” Dr Kim explained. The compound is similar in structure to resveratrol - a supplement sold in the UK last year to combat disease - and is also found in grapes, blueberries and passion fruit. Dr Kim, assistant professor of food science at the university, said: “We are now testing our idea using animal model obesity to see if it has the same benefical functions.” “We need to work on improving the stability and solubility of piceatannol to create a biological effect,” he added. The finding was published in the Journal of Biological Chemistry.

MIDWEEK NEWS WEEKLY TUESDAY, JUNE 17, 2014 Nissan makes history at Le Mans with first mirrorless race car CONTD. FROM PAGE 25 But on the test day, drivers Wolfgang Reip and Tommy Erdos made history by completing laps without the mirrors that are mandatory for every other entry in the 56-car field. The Nissan ZEOD is equipped with a rear-facing camera that actually provides a more comprehensive view than the mirrors. In addition, the car has an inbuilt radar system that not only alerts the drivers about upcoming traffic, but provides further insight on closing speed through large arrows on the screen. The system is able to differentiate between cars that are closing fast, or those that are staying at a similar distance behind or falling back. The arrows also change color depending on closing speed. It will also alert the driver whether a faster LM P1 car is passing on the left or right. The dual-systems will again be used starting tonight in France for practice and qualifying where Reip will be joined by fellow GT Academy winner, Lucas Ordóñez plus Japanese star, Satoshi Motoyama. Both were forced to miss the Le Mans test day due to a clashing Super GT race in Japan. "These driver assist systems are just another aspect of future technology transfers that will improve the road cars of the future," said NISMO's Global Head of Brand, Marketing & Sales, Darren Cox. "The development of the battery technology will obviously assist the development of future versions of the Nissan LEAF and other hybrid models, but lessons learned from the driver assist systems will find their way into every Nissan model in the future. "If we have a system which can provide safe and important information at 300km/h in a high pressure situation, then we can adapt that for use in road cars. "One of the reasons why we race is that motorsport helps our engineers to really fast track technologies and test them in extreme environments. There is no event or competition more extreme than the Le Mans 24 Hours." Introduced at this year's Geneva Auto Show, the Smart rearview mirror is housed within the structure of the rearview mirror, with a built-in LCD monitor that can be activated in place of the conventional mirror. A high-resolution camera mounted on the rear of the road car provides the driver with a clear unobstructed view of the rear flanks, allowing the ability to check blind spots and other traffic conditions. The camera projects a clear image onto the monitor to provide the driver with a better view for a more comfortable driving experience. MIDWEEK NEWS NEWS WEEKLY WEEKLY TUESDAY, AUGUST TUESDAY, JUNE 17, 28, 2012 2014 auto MidWeek 31 32 MidWeek real estate Sustain inclusive growth by reducing housing market risks: OECD ONTARIO - Canada has experienced solid economic growth since the global crisis, allowing it to reverse recession-induced job losses and put federal public finances on a sound footing, says the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD). Growth is expected to accelerate from 2.5% this year to 2.7% in 2015. Despite the overall positive outlook, impor tant challenges remain to ensure strong, inclusive growth going forward and preserve Canada's high levels of well-being, according to two new OECD repor ts. High housing prices in cer tain large cities and household debt pose financial stability risks that should be addressed. Fiscal consolidation should continue as planned at both the federal and provincial levels, with a par ticular focus on long-term health costs at provincial level. Effor ts must be taken to protect the environment while saving a greater share of resource revenues for future generations, and fur ther action is needed to ease localised and sector-specific skills shor tages. Presenting the Economic Survey of Canada 2014 today at the 20th International Economic Forum of the Americas/Conference of Montréal, OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría said: "Canada weathered the global crisis well and has out-performed most other advanced economies since the Great Recession. Economic growth will accelerate in the years to come, but skills shor tages in some sectors and regions must be addressed to avoid constraining growth going forward." Mr Gurría said. "The exploitation of non-renewable resources must be carefully managed, both to minimise negative environmental impacts today and to ensure a better tomorrow for future generations." The Economic Survey of Canada recommends policymakers move to reduce housing market risks. It calls for a tightening of mor tgage insurance, so as to cover only par t of lenders' losses in case of mor tgage default, and a continuing increase in the private sector's share of the market through gradual reductions of the cap on the Canada Mor tgage and Housing Corporation's insured mor tgages. The Survey also recommends that Canada expand low-cost rental housing supply at the municipal level, notably by adjusting zoning regulations to promote the construction of more multi-unit dwellings. The OECD calls for fur ther effor ts to improve fiscal sustainability. The federal government has made considerable progress in reducing its budget deficit and is encouraged to stay the course to achieve its objective of eliminating the deficit by 2015. Never theless, provincial governments will see rising debt to GDP ratios over the next few years without fur ther action. Health care costs pose the most serious threat to provincial fiscal sustainability over the longer term and should be addressed through reforms including patient or activity based funding for hospitals, increasing the share of ambulatory care and joint input purchases with other provinces. MIDWEEK NEWS WEEKLY TUESDAY, JUNE 17, 2014 5 easy ways to organize your wardrobe GETTING ORGANIZED IS ONE BASIC STEP TO MAINTAINING YOUR WARDROBE PERFECT. To reduce localised and sector-specific skills shortages, the Survey calls for continued effor ts to improve labour market information, in order to bring students' study choices more into line with labourmarket requirements. It also recommends harmonising apprenticeship cer tifications across the country, so as to increase completion rates by boosting inter-provincial mobility for apprentices. The Employment and Skills Strategies in Canada - OECD Review on Local Job Creation says that greater local-level involvement in the implementation of employment and skills policies is vital to align skills development effor ts with employers' needs. The repor t analyses policies in Canada's two largest provinces, Ontario and Quebec, and makes recommendations on how to better connect employment, skills and economic development. The OECD shows that stronger linkages with employers, as well as flexibility in the design and implementation of policies, are required to ensure communities can retain and attract highly skilled workers and jobs. Greater attention by the education, training and employment systems to how skills are utilised in the economy would stimulate productivity and innovation, long identified as among Canada's greatest challenges, while addressing skills mismatches and helping create quality jobs. This would also mitigate the decline in labour supply likely to emerge as the workforce ages. The federal government can promote a 'placesensitive' approach by considering how policies are implemented at the local level, and by encouraging provinces to take an integrated approach on the ground. So, you always land in that proverbial mess when you discover at the end of every weekend when you find complete chaos inside your wardrobe and you can't find your favoutire shir t from the mess that you have created. Here's how to organize your wardrobe for easy accessibility Arrange according to priority: If formal wear is what you want to access first, arrange things accordingly by placing all the for mals at a an easily accessible compar tment. Accordingly, keep the related accessories in nearby shelves so that you don't have to look around. Keep sections separate: Keep different sections for different types of ware. For examples, all your sarees should be at one place, and the related stuff like petticoats, blouses should be in the same vicinity arranged in and around the same shelf or compar tment. Jewelry and accessories: Precious jewelry and accessories should be kept in a section that has a lock. Stock all the accessories that you are going to use on a day to day basis in that locker section. Don't load it to the brim: Give your wardrobe a de-cluttered look. Do not pile up all the clothes in it. Only take the best ones and the ones you are going to frequently use and stack them in your wardrobe. Always revise your wardrobe: Make sure to arrange and rearrange your wardrobe at least once in a for tnight. It will help you remember where exactly you have kept a par ticular attire or accessory.
