Ah! Diets!

Well have not been a great fan of diets, but a couple of them do really work. Have tried one and the other seems to be the new fad. The former is the GM aka General motors diet and the second one is the Morning Banana Diet. Apparently the latter has swept Japan and bananas are at their costliest! U can read abt them at http://www.dolenutrition.com/bananadiet/bananadiet.htm (Banana diet) and http://msync.org/health/GeneralMotorsDiet.html (GM diet) I have tried out the latter with surprisingly positive results and am in the midst of it a second time. After it ends, will have a go at the other one. Go bananas!

Hey Pinky!

Well, for the first time, a "pink" ball is being tried in a cricket match. This would replace the "white" ball used in one-dayers. Not much innovation has gone on to changing the color of the ball except for making it "orange" in 1989 in England, which backfired since it was not visible on TV. So far, so good, goin' by the comments of the players. Let us wait n watch if it is going to become a permanent fixture. Read about it in http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/7352516.stm
