The skin, due to exposure to the harsh sun becomes dry and dehydrated. Here are face packs that can be made at home...

Tomato and cream: Tomato juice and malai provides a cooling effect to the skin. Apply this with cotton. Tomato seeds can be retained in the pack.

Mango pack: Apply two tablespoons mango pulp, one tea spoon of sandalwood powder, one teaspoon of honey, one tablespoon of yogurt, and some turmeric powder on your face right after some time in the sun. This saves the skin from getting damaged.

Banana pack: Some banana pulp along with one tea spoon honey is also soothing for the skin.

Potato juice: Applying the juice of freshly grated potato helps remove tan and is healthy for the skin.

Multani mitti: This is as simple as it can get. Make a paste of it by mixing it with water and rinse off after applying it for 15 minutes.

    Nice face packs...I might try the mango one as I love mangoes. You can also try mint leaves paste on the skin. Crush a few mint leaves and apply on the face. Leave it for a while and then wash it off. It keeps the skin cool, helps in removing excess oil and is good for acne. Also, coconut milk is good for removing tan. Use it on your face or your body and then wash it off after a while.

The Navy Call List - Military Phonetic Alphabet

By -
A very well known but seldom used list, although if we practice the use of this list in our day to day lives it not only easens our life but avoida a hell lot of spelling errors for instance I am Raj (Romeo - Alpha - Juliet) Best of Luck A phonetic alphabet is a list of words used to identify letters in a message transmitted by radio or telephone. Spoken words from an approved list are substituted for letters. For example, the word "Army" would be "Alfa Romeo Mike Yankee" when spelled in the phonetic alphabet. This practice helps to prevent confusion between similar sounding letters, such as "m" and "n", and to clarify communications that may be garbled during transmission. An early version of the phonetic alphabet appears in the 1913 edition of The Bluejackets’ Manual. Found in the Signals section, it was paired with the Alphabetical Code Flags defined in the International Code. Both the meanings of the flags (the letter which they repr

8 Indian spices that prevent cancer (Thinkstock photos/Getty Images) Not every battle is struck by a wave of violence and not every fight culminates in bloodshed. When the opposition in question is an adamant disease like cancer, our armoury should be packed with a lifestyle of regular health check-ups and a diet including foods that double as anti-cancer agents. When actress Lisa Ray was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a relatively rare cancer of the bone marrow, all she said was, "I'll beat cancer". Carrying this spirit of defeating a disease often labelled 'incurable', we try to find out diet methods, especially in the selection of spices that can avert the multiplying of malignant cells in the body that gradually mature into insurmountable cancer cells. Our grandmothers would in no time prepare us a glass of warm milk with saffron sprinkled on top when we went crying to her with bruise on our knee or wound on the elbow. The herbal turmeric paste soothed mino
