Obama, the president-elect of the US said on November 07, 2008, 'Iran must be kept from developing nuclear weapon.'

Iran has always been claiming that it is developing nuclear technology for generating electricity and other peaceful uses. So, the world community should confirm about Iran nuclear status to avoid another conflict like Iraq war, which was based on non-existent cause. The Iraq war is one of the main causes of current recession of the US which badly affect the globe also. Each and every people have to pay for recovery from this global depression.

In this context, from the first black and African-American president of the US, people of Africa and Asia demand to change the civilian nuclear technology transfer policy of the US to the backward continents for their quick advancement and it also undoubtedly develop the whole world in a better pace.

Most of us like to drink cold water after a meal. But this is not good for health. Instead of drinking cold water, it is better to have a glass of warm water or hot soup. The cold water solidifies the oily stuff we eat and slows down the digestion process. Once this sludge reacts with acid, it breaks down and absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. Soon it starts turning into fats and leads to cancer, heart ailments, and etcetera.
