      I HAVE DONE REQUEST AND WAITING FOR YOUR GUYZ OPINION.

  7. You are a nice person. About activity, I have no doubt about that, so you got my answer :
  8. What is it? Two years ago, BMW axed arguably its most distinctive product. That product was the second-generation 1 Series: the only family hatchback that could be described as truly rear-wheel drive and, as if that wasn’t enough, the only one available with six-cylinder power. Its existence meant that if you shelled out for one of the top-ranking 1 Series models, you were getting something undeniably special for your money. BMW’s subsequent decision to switch the 1 Series onto the front-driven FAAR platform already serving the X1 SUV duly went down about as well as Porsche’s 2013 clanger of withholding a manual gearbox from the 911 GT3. In both cases, the business case was there but approval from enthusiasts was certainly not. Yet unlike the GT3, whose maker backtracked and now offers its finest driving machine with three pedals once again, the six-cylinder 1 Series isn’t coming back. Four cylinders sitting transversely, and sending their efforts to the front axle, is how it’s going to be. But before we get too wistful, we need to be straight with ourselves: the old M135i and M140i cars with the creamy 3.0-litre straight six weren’t perfect. So much weight in the nose made them considerably less agile than many of their serious hot hatch rivals and an underdamped rear axle meant that the contact patches could feel worryingly vague on trickier roads. In truth, they weren’t really hot hatches at all. They were hatchback grand tourers: unique and, in the right circumstances, brilliant but costly to run and not the quick-footed firecrackers needed to challenge the established hot hatch benchmarks. Which, interestingly, is exactly what the new 128ti is designed to do. Until very recently, the idea that the pre-eminent purveyor of rear-drive saloons might directly challenge the Volkswagen Golf GTI in its own backyard would have sounded absurd. But that’s what the new 1 Series architecture permits, and BMW seems to have put plenty of effort into making sure this car lands with a bang. It has even reprised its second most alluring moniker – ti, for Turismo Internazionale – for the first time since the 1990s. Less welcome is the decision to celebrate this revival with jarring red exterior accents, but if those turn out to be the only blots on the 128ti’s copybook, game on. Behind the redesigned bumper sits a detuned version of the same twinscroll-turbocharged four-cylinder engine found in the M135i xDrive range-topper. Here it makes 261bhp and 295lb ft instead of 302bhp and 332lb ft. Drive is then put to the front wheels through the same mechanical Torsen limited-slip differential found in the M135i, although the locking ratio has been reduced fractionally. Without the stability provided by the more powerful car’s driven rear axle, BMW claims there was a risk the 128ti would be too fighty had the ratio remained unchanged. And that would have gone against what BMW is aiming for here: something coherent, deft and fun but not necessarily white-knuckle wild. The detail changes therefore run much deeper than chucking the rear driveshafts and tweaking the differential. Compared with the M135i, underbody bracing has been removed from the front and added at the back, with the aim of shifting the distribution of stiffness rearward and making the front understeer less easily and the back more mobile. For the same reason, as well as to improve turn-in response, the suspension geometry has been altered, notably with the reduction of toe-in at all four corners.
  9. Staying at-home has resulted in a lot of stress for people -- of being stuck indoors for week on end; the uncertainty has taken a toll on people's mental well-being. Stress cannot be hidden; it shows on your face. The first tell-tale signs reflect on your face as pale skin and mild eruptions on the surface. Stress causes hormonal imbalance which leads to acne, rashes, hair thinning and fall, and various other skin break-outs. It is imperative that people follow good skin care routine while they're indoors. Staying inside does not necessarily mean you can forego or overlook skin and hair care. These are prone to more damage owing to stress. One should follow a strict, if not elaborate, skincare routine, which involves cleansing, toning and moisturizing. Geetanjali Shetty, Consultant Dermatologist and Cosmetologist on behalf of Cetaphil India shares most important of all, keep yourself hydrated with water and lots of liquid! Side effects of Stress -- Oily Skin & Acne Acne and oily skin are the most common side effects of stress. When our body is stressed it releases cortisol which is our fight or flight hormone. The cortisol (stress hormone) weakens the skin's immune system, leading to oxidative (free radicals) stress, which manifests itself as wrinkles, lines and lack lustre skin. It also increases inflammation in the body and conditions like eczema, rosacea and psoriasis can flare up. Prevention For skin, stress is quite evident in various forms like redness of skin, acne, etc. If there are skin breakouts and eruptions -- it is better to avoid exfoliation and stick to cleansing your face thrice daily. Similarly, those with skin on the drier side should aim to wash their face only twice a day with a foaming cleanser. Should your skin need a little boost, indulging in Vitamin C to help combat the loss. If you know you're about to enter a stressful period, try to make time for the activities that will help you feel calm and rested -- your skin will thank you. Home Remedies to fight acne It is highly imperative to discover what one is getting exposed to and when. Stick to your skincare routine - cleansing, exfoliating, and moisturising, and keep a sunscreen handy for the times that you may have to make a quick dash to the grocers. Even if you're not wearing makeup, your face still gathers sweat, sebum and dirt build up throughout the day. Lastly, its important that to stay away from fried and spicy food. Vitamin E is a superfood for your skin -- you can apply it topically or you can chose to consume it through vitamin E rich foods like almonds, corn oil, cod-liver oil, hazelnuts, lobster, peanut butter, safflower oil, salmon steak, and sunflower seeds. The most essential thing to bear in mind is to keep yourself hydrated -- drink lots of water, juices and liquids.
  10. The US is to end its support for offensive operations by its allies in Yemen, which has been devastated by a six-year war in which more than 110,000 people are believed to have died. "The war in Yemen must end," President Joe Biden said in his first major foreign policy speech. Under Mr Biden's two predecessors, the US backed a coalition led by Saudi Arabia against Houthi rebels in Yemen. The conflict has left millions of Yemenis on the brink of starvation. Fighting began in 2014 between a weak Yemeni government and the Houthi rebel movement. It escalated a year later, when Saudi Arabia and eight other Arab states - backed by the US, the UK and France - began air strikes against the Houthis. Biden vows US 'reset' in foreign policy speech Mr Biden announced other changes to US foreign policy, such as a significant increase in the number of refugees accepted by the US, and a reversal of the decision to withdraw American troops from Germany, where they have been stationed since the end of World War Two. His speech marks a sharp break with the policies of former president Donald Trump, who left office last month. What does the Yemen announcement mean? The US has been backing the Yemeni government and its Saudi-led allies in their war against the Houthis. As a result of Thursday's announcement, the US will stop supporting offensive operations, including the sale of precision-guided munitions to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This will not affect operations against al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula. The Biden administration had already put a temporary halt on arms sales to Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Why is there a war in Yemen? Tough tests for Joe Biden in 'new' Middle East The rise of Yemen's Houthi rebels Mr Biden is expected to name his new Yemen envoy as Tim Lenderking, an experienced diplomat and Middle East specialist. This marks a change of tack from Mr Trump's administration, which increased support for the Saudi-led coalition. Last month Mr Trump's Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, announced that the Houthis were being designated a "terrorist organisation". He said the aim was to hold the Houthis accountable for cross-border attacks and deter "malign activity" by their backer Iran. Aid organisations criticised the move, warning that it could prevent them from operating in areas where millions are in urgent need of food aid. Last week, the Biden administration said it would exempt certain transactions involving the Houthis from sanctions. That exemption will expire on 26 February. The United Nations says Yemen is the world's worst humanitarian crisis, with 80% of the po[CENSORED]tion in need of aid or protection.
  11. What is it? Vauxhall isn’t hanging around when it comes to electrification. By the end of the year, the British brand will have nine plug-in hybrid or fully electric models, a list that already includes the Corsa-e supermini, Grandland X plug-in hybrid and Vivaro-e electric van. The new Mokka-e is gunning to be the most important of the lot. The compact crossover EV arrives as demand for electric cars is at its highest to date, and the small SUV class in general has never been more po[CENSORED]r. It also introduces a major departure from Vauxhall’s design norms, showcasing elements that premiered on the outlandish GTX concept car. These include a minimal Vizor front grille that merges the griffin badge and headlights into a single unit that also helps lower the car’s drag coefficient to 0.32, down from 0.35 in the old, petrol-powered Mokka X. Short front and rear overhangs help give it an altogether more purposeful look, one that I’d argue rubs shoulders with the Ford Puma for visual appeal. The Mokka-e uses the same 134bhp motor and 50kWh battery as the Peugeot e-2008, with which it shares its CMP platform. The combination sends power to the front axle only through a single-speed transmission, promises 201 miles of WLTP-certified range, and supports 100kW DC rapid charging for an 80% recharge in 30 minutes. A Mode 3 cable comes as standard, but not a three-pin for home charging sans wallbox. What's it like? The electric motor is good for 0-62mph in 9.2sec, as long as you switch drive modes before burying the throttle: Eco mode restricts the output to around 80bhp for greater power efficiency, while the full 134bhp is only available in Sport, which uses a more aggressive throttle map and sharpens up the steering. Acceleration is brisk, rather than startling, and only marginally faster than the 1.2-litre petrol, though the torque advantage means making a quick getaway at junctions or traffic lights can still induce some wheelspin. The dashboard instantly updates its range estimate when swapping drive modes, too, reminding you what effect your hooning can have on the battery. There is a button to increase the amount of brake regeneration, but it’s a take-it-or-leave-it toggle rather than the fine-grain control seen in the Hyundai Kona Electric. The Mokka’s light steering doesn’t give the driver too much sense of what the front wheels are doing, but manages not to feel as over-assisted as the Peugeot e-2008. With 300kg of extra weight over the equivalent petrol model, body control isn’t quite as tight, so the Mazda MX-30 remains the more engaging EV to hustle through corners - even if the Vauxhall does hold on surprisingly well at speed. Slow things down and the ride is more than respectable, refusing to be unsettled by rougher surfaces and minor imperfections. Larger ruts still make their presence felt, but no more so here than in any close rival. Cabin space is only marginally compromised by choosing electric over combustion, with the Mokka-e getting a reduced 310 litres of above-floor boot space, versus the petrol's 350. A pair of 6ft adults can sit in the back in relative comfort, though anyone taller is going to feel the pinch. Vauxhall has worked hard to reduce wind and road noise, which the absence of a combustion engine can be quick to highlight, but even at motorway speeds the Mokka is impressively quiet. Every new Mokka gets Vauxhall’s new ‘pure panel’ digital dashboard, but only SRi trim and above get the full-fat version, complete with 12in instrument cluster and 10in touchscreen. It’s built into the dash, rather than free-floating, and gives the cockpit more of a driver-focused feel. The UI is fairly responsive, and while the graphics aren’t especially detailed, the handful of different dials and displays to choose from at least allow for some customisation. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are both on-board, too. Touchscreen aside, the centre console is very minimal, albeit still with physical climate controls. The transmission tunnel is mostly comprised of glossy black plastic, which doesn’t look especially premium, but materials quality is easily up to the class average.
  12. Bollywood actress Bhumi Pednekar, who has made headlines announcing her switch to vegetarianism, has not only won the hearts of her fans, for her dedicated fitness routine but has received shout-outs from her peers, too. Sharing a message closer to home, the star took to social media to talk about her winter health routine. Being vocal about a healthy diet and workout routine, Bhumi inspires her followers regularly to stay fit and strong to lead a healthy life. From choosing the right vegetables for immunity and strength during this season, to adopting a traditional route to manage her respiratory health, Bhumi certainly is on a winter-care streak. Sharing a message on Instagram, she talks about how easy it is to catch a cold or cough amid the low temperatures and hustle-bustle of film shoots. Therefore, for a healthy lifestyle during this time, she manages cold and flu symptoms by following a few simple doctor-approved practices like drinking lukewarm water, doing regular steam inhalation, exercising daily and of course, eating nutritious home-cooked meals. Speaking about it, Bhumi tells IANSlife, "Health has always been on the top of my list when it comes to self-care. I believe that if one is not careful about their health and well-being especially during peak months like winter, it can slow you down. One day you're feeling fine, the next, you have blocked nose and cough. My 'nuskhas' are simple, and one that I learned by just observing my mother. As a child, whenever I have cough and cold symptoms, she would make me practice steam inhalation using our household favorite, Vicks Vaporub. I still practice this today as it has traditional ingredients like niligiri, pudina, camphor, and ajwain, and gives fast relief from blocked nose and cough. To ensure I was warm inside-out, my mum would give me a cup of haldi doodh right after."
  13. Myanmar's military rulers have blocked access to Facebook, days after they overthrew the democratic government. Officials said the social media platform - for many in Myanmar the only access to the internet - would be blocked for the sake of "stability". Facebook has become a key rallying point for opposition to Monday's coup. In the latest sign of civil disobedience, lawmakers have declared a new parliamentary session, and more pot-banging was seen in Yangon. What is Facebook's role? The Ministry of Communications and Information said access to Facebook would be blocked until 7 February. However, it was still reported to be accessible sporadically. Half of Myanmar's 53 million people use Facebook and activists have set up a page to co-ordinate opposition to the coup. Facebook allows its app to be used without data costs in Myanmar as a way of avoiding expensive telecoms data charges. The social media giant acknowledged the disruption, saying "we urge authorities to restore connectivity so that people in Myanmar can communicate with their families and friends and access important information." What is happening on the streets? Reports from Mayanmar's second city, Mandalay, say there was a small demonstration and some arrests. In the main city, Yangon, residents banged cooking pots for a second night running in a sign of protest. At least 70 lawmakers are refusing to leave a government guest house in the capital, Nay Pyi Taw, and have declared a new parliamentary session, BBC Burmese reports. The MPs belong to the National League for Democracy (NLD) led by Aung San Suu Kyi - the elected civilian leader overthrown and then arrested in the coup. The military filed charged against her and the deposed President Win Myint on Wednesday. The lawmakers are among hundreds who were confined by the military to guest houses before being told they were free to leave. But the streets are for the most part calm with no sign of major protest and a curfew in force. However, hospitals have seen protests. Many medics have either stopped work, or continued while wearing symbols of defiance to oppose the suppression of Myanmar's short-lived democracy. Myanmar coup: What is happening and why? Growing up under Myanmar's military rule 'Absolutely unacceptable' The UN Secretary General, António Guterres, has meanwhile called for constitutional order to be re-established in Myanmar - also known as Burma. He said he hoped there would be unity in the Security Council on the matter. "We'll do everything we can to mobilise all the key actors of the international community to put enough pressure on Myanmar to make sure that this coup fails," he said.

  16. Chickpeas, also commonly referred to as garbanzo beans, are apart of the legume family along with beans, peanuts, lentils, and peas. They are a type of pulse, which is an edible seed that is grown in a pod. Believed to be first originated in the Mediterranean region, chickpeas have been apart of human’s diets since as early as 5500 BC. (1)In fact, they are one of the earliest cultivated crops. Nowadays, chickpeas are a staple in many po[CENSORED]r dishes, sides, dips, and even desserts. These incredibly versatile legumes can become anything from curry, to tacos, to hummus, and even brownies! They are even delicious by themselves. Cultures around the world rely on chickpeas as a key component in their diets and for good reason. Learn about some of the important health benefits of chickpeas.

Source of Plant-Based Protein Chickpeas are packed with key vitamins and nutrients. They make for a great addition to anybody’s diet, but are essential in a whole foods, plant-based diet. One reason being because they are a great source of plant-based protein. Chickpeas contain roughly 9 grams of protein per half cup of cooked chickpeas. This makes chickpeas a great addition to meals for those looking to increase their protein intake on a plant-based diet. Because of their versatility, chickpeas are an easy substitute for animal sourced protein. For example, swap out chicken for chickpeas in recipes like chicken noodle soup or chicken salad for an inexpensive, healthier, and nutrient dense alternative. 2. Lowers the Risk of Cancer Another one of the health benefits of chickpeas is their ability to lower your risk of cancer. When chickpeas are consumed, a type of fatty acid called butyrate is produced. (2) Butyrate aids in gut health and is essential in allowing your digestive system to function properly. This fatty acid also contains anti-inflammatory effects and promotes apoptosis (death) of the cells, which in turn helps to prevent and protect against different cancers such as colon cancer. (3) In contrast, processed and red meats are known to increase the rick of colon cancer. (4)Therefor, it is important to consume a diet full of plant-based foods that have the ability to greatly reduce this alarming risk. In addition, chickpeas contain other dietary bioactive compounds. Dietary bioactive compounds are chemical compounds that can be find in different plant-based whole foods. These compounds are essential in promoting good health. Those found in chickpeas include lycopene, Biochanin A, and saponins, all of which have been shown to reduce the risk of different types of cancer, as stated in this review. 5 Incredible Health Benefits Of Chickpeas (Garbanzo Beans) MAY 7, 2019 FacebookTwitterEmailPinterestMessengerReddit RSSFollow by EmailFacebookTwitterPinterest health benefits of chickpeas Chickpeas, also commonly referred to as garbanzo beans, are apart of the legume family along with beans, peanuts, lentils, and peas.

Recipes with Chickpeas Chickpea Meatballs Oil Free Hummus Zucchini Boats 3. Full of Essential Vitamins and Minerals Chickpeas are full of essential vitamins and minerals necessary for a healthy, balanced diet. They are an incredibly nutrient dense food. By consuming chickpeas, you will aid in increasing your body’s intake of other essential nutrients as well. Chickpeas are an excellent natural source of iron, magnesium, and zinc while also containing folic acid, vitamin A, vitamin E and B vitamins. (5) All of these vitamins and minerals are essential for a healthy and properly functioning body. In fact, most people do not realize that different health issues are associated with being deficient in certain vitamins. Therefore, it is important to incorporate a wide variety of whole foods that contain many of these different vitamins and minerals. Chickpeas are a great vitamin and mineral rich option that should be regularly included in your diet. 4. Lowers the Risk of Coronary Heart Disease Coronary heart disease occurs when the coronary arteries begin to narrow due to extreme plaque buildup overtime. This buildup is detrimental to ones health and potentially deadly, as it causes restricted blow flow that can in turn lead to a heart attack or stroke. What most people don’t realize is that this buildup is often directly related to what people eat, with the consumption of animal products and fried foods high in trans and saturated fats being the main culprits. This is where chickpeas come in. Frequently consuming these legumes has the potential to lower the risk, prevent and reverse coronary heart disease. This being because chickpeas are high in fiber, containing 18 grams of fiber per 1/2 cup of uncooked chickpeas. Chickpeas contain a type of fiber called soluble fiber. Soluble fiber is an important component in one’s diet, especially when it comes to your arteries. This being because soluble fiber turns to a gel during the digestive process and binds to cholesterol particles. It then helps to flush out the bad cholesterol and clean your arteries, thus lowering your risk of CHD. (6) 5. Promotes Weight Loss When trying to lose weight, it is important to not only focus on exercise, but the foods you eat as well. Chickpeas are a great option to add into your diet as they promote weight loss. This is because chickpeas are a great source of fiber, and while this alone offers many health benefits, having a diet high in fiber is important when it comes to controlling and reducing your weight. In fact, most people do not get enough fiber in their diets. The average adult in the United States is only consuming less than half of the recommended amount of dietary fiber. (7) Consuming foods high in fiber like chickpeas also helps you to feel satiated for longer periods of time which can in turn help avoid overeating and the desire to snack, leading to weight loss.
  17. Russian police have detained more than 200 people near a Moscow court which is considering whether to jail Putin critic Alexei Navalny. Many riot police, including some on horses, are deployed outside the court. The hearing is to decide whether to turn Mr Navalny's suspended sentence into an actual prison term. He could face up to three and a half years, in a case that has sparked nationwide protests. He calls the embezzlement conviction fabricated. The arrests were reported by the Russian OVD-Info monitoring group, which documents police activities, and by the Moscow Public Monitoring Commission (ONK), a human rights body. Russia's vociferous Putin critic Thousands join Navalny protests across Russia 'We have to protest' - anti-Putin anger spreads Mr Navalny's return to Russia on 17 January triggered mass protests in support of him, many of them young Russians who have only ever experienced President Vladimir Putin's rule. Mr Navalny has been accused of breaking the terms of a 2014 suspended sentence for embezzlement that required him to report regularly to Russian police. His lawyers say the accusation is absurd as the authorities knew he was recovering in Berlin after a nerve agent attack that nearly killed him. Addressing the court on Tuesday, Mr Navalny said: "I fell into a coma, then came round, left hospital, contacted my lawyer and sent you a document stating where I was... Of course I wasn't at home! What more could I do?" Western diplomats are attending the hearing. The EU has condemned the mass arrests of Navalny supporters, and EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell is to visit Moscow on Thursday for official talks. Commenting on the court hearing, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said "we hope that such nonsense as linking the prospects of Russia-EU relations with the resident of a detention centre will not happen". In Room 635 of the Moscow City Courthouse, four police officers have been guarding a glass cage. Locked inside is President Putin's most ferocious critic. For much of the time Alexei Navalny has been following proceedings in silence: standing with his arms folded. Sometimes he has interjected. "Why are you deceiving the court by saying you didn't know where I was?" Mr Navalny responded when the Moscow Prison Service claimed he had gone into hiding in Germany. "You had my address, my contact details." Several times the prosecutor has interrupted the defence lawyers, complaining about their line of questioning. On the courtroom wall above me is a portrait of a famous Russian judge from tsarist times, along with the quotation: "Words are one of the greatest weapons of man." After his "Putin's Palace" video notched up more than 100m views online, Alexei Navalny may well agree. 2px presentational grey line Just before the court hearing began, Mr Navalny praised his wife Yulia, who is attending in court. She was fined 20,000 roubles (£190; $260) on Monday for having joined the pro-Navalny protesters at an "unauthorised" rally. "They said that you had seriously violated public order and were a bad girl. I'm proud of you," Mr Navalny said, quoted by Reuters news agency.

  21. Myanmar's military has seized power after detaining civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi and other senior members of her governing party. All authority has been given to the top army commander and a one-year state of emergency has been declared, a statement on military TV said. The coup follows a landslide election win by Ms Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy (NLD). She urged her supporters "not to accept this" and "protest against the coup". In a letter written in preparation for her impending detention, she said the military's actions put the country back under dictatorship. In the early hours of Monday the military said it was handing power to commander-in-chief Min Aung Hlaing because of "election fraud". Soldiers are on the streets of the capital, Nay Pyi Taw, and the main city, Yangon. Myanmar, also known as Burma, was ruled by the armed forces until 2011, when democratic reforms spearheaded by Aung Sann Suu Kyi ended military rule. Myanmar's coup: Why now - and what's next? Pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi What has the reaction been? The United States has condemned the coup, saying Washington "opposes any attempt to alter the outcome of recent elections or impede Myanmar's democratic transition". US Secretary of State Antony Blinken called for the release of all government officials and civil society leaders and said the US "stands with the people of Burma in their aspirations for democracy, freedom, peace, and development. The military must reverse these actions immediately". In the UK, Prime Minister Boris Johnson condemned the coup and Aung San Suu Kyi's "unlawful imprisonment". So it's official. The armed forces in Myanmar have confirmed that they have carried out a coup d'etat, their first against a civilian government since 1962, and in apparent violation of the constitution which the military promised to honour as recently as last Saturday. The grievances which have been driving tension between the military and the government are well enough known. The military-backed party, the USDP, performed poorly in last November's general election, whereas the NLD did even better than in 2015. The timing of this coup is also easily explained. This week the first session of parliament since the election was due to start, which would have enshrined the election result by approving the next government. That will no longer happen. But the military's longer game plan is hard to fathom. What do they plan to do in the year they have given themselves to run the country? There will be public anger over a coup so soon after an election in which 70% of voters defied the Covid-19 pandemic to vote so overwhelmingly for Aung San Suu Kyi. Famously stubborn, she is unlikely to co-operate with a gun held to her head. Her ally, President Win Myint, is the only person authorised under the constitution to enact a state of emergency. He has been detained with her. For the moment the military's action appears reckless, and puts Myanmar on a perilous path.
