Chocoholics, read this!

chocsyr

Are you a chocoholic? How about two bars of “super-strength chocolate specially formulated by Belgian chocolatiers” daily for one year? Interested? All in the name of medical science, of course!

Researchers at the University of East Anglia and a hospital in Norwich, eastern England are trying to find out whether chocolate can cut the risk of heart disease and need 40 women to step forward and help.

Oh, but there’s a catch here: volunteers should be menopausal but under the age of 75 and should have type two diabetes.

According to study coordinator Peter Curtis: “A successful outcome could be the first step in developing new ways to improve the lives of people at increased risk of heart disease.”

overcrowded

Those are Hindu devotees traveling in an obviously overcrowded passenger train last July 22, 2009. The people came from a holy dip and prayer offering in the waters of Brahma Sarovar, a sacred pond, during the solar eclipse in the northern Indian city of Kurukshetra.

Thousands of people gathered for a dip in the Ganges because they believe that it is an act that will lead them to salvation from th cycle of life and death.

Before you list down your entry, let me just share with you this photo of the one they call The Ledge.

You can look down through a glass floor 1,353 feet (412 meters) above Wacker Drive in Chicago. The Ledge is part of Skydeck Chicago located on the 103rd floor of the Sears Tower. It opened to the public last July 2.

Happy WS everyone!
