Stealing The Show - The Tis Wish Way
In a rare show of
solidarity all the members of Tis Wish Organisation pitched in to
organize the fund raising Marathi concert, “Baykochya Na Kalatach”.
Thanks to the enthusiasm of the volunteers, every seat in the
auditorium was sold out well in advance. So, on 25th November 2006
all roads led to the venue, the Tarapur Vidya Mandir Grounds.
The air was full of eager anticipation on the day of the show, with
the volunteers on their toes to ensure that all arrangements were as
per plan and there was no glitch to mar the show. The lights, sound
and seating were all well taken care of. The brilliantly lit stage
was finally set. There was an expectant hush across the audience as
the curtains slowly opened and the charismatic protagonists appeared
on stage. Once they put on their scintillating act, there was no
looking back. They had the entire audience - both young and old - in
stitches. Their riveting performances delivered with élan were
absolutely delightful and memorable. Being established actors, they
had the audience eating out of their hands. Much of the hilarious
plot revolved around the husband's cheating ways and the wife's
blissful ignorance of the wayward character.This play directed by Prakash Buddhisagar had Sunil Barve, Kshitij
Zarapkar, Manjusha Godse and Ashwini Apte as the star cast.
All in all the show was a resounding sensation and as the Tis Wish
girls now bask in the super duper success of this event they would
like to dedicate this achievement to the largesse of the ever
supportive and generous Tata Group, without whose help and
encouragement this feat would have been very difficult to
accomplish. Not forgetting the myriad other supporters whose
kindness went a long, long way in providing Tis Wish the inspiration
to carry on with its fund raising project. Grateful thanks also to
our MD, Mr B Muthuraman who set the ball rolling when he offered Rs
1 lakh for the upgradation of TMRCT.
Here's wishing more power to this committed band of girls. May their
tribe increase. |

Healthy Living -
Importance of Having Breakfast Breakfast can help prevent strokes, heart attack and sudden death.
For those who always skip breakfast, the frequency of heart attack, sudden death and stroke peaks between 6.00 a.m. and noon, with the highest incidence being between 8.00 a.m. and 10.00 a.m. What mechanism within the body could account for this significant jump in sudden death in the early morning hours?
We may have an answer.
Platelets, tiny elements in the blood that keep us from bleeding to death if we get a cut, can clump together inside our arteries due to cholesterol or plaque buildup in the artery lining. It is in the morning hours that platelets become the most activated and tend to form these internal blood clots at the greatest frequency.
 However, eating even a very light breakfast prevents the morning platelet activation that is associated with heart attacks and strokes. Studies performed at Memorial University in St.Johns, Newfoundland found that eating a light, very low-fat breakfast was critical in modifying the morning platelet activation. Subjects in the study consumed either low-fat or fat-free yogurt, orange juice, fruit and a source of protein coming from yogurt or fat-free milk. So if you skip breakfast, it's important that you change this practice immediately in light of this research. Develop a simple plan to eat
cereal, such as oatmeal or Bran Flakes, along with six ounces of
grape juice or orange juice, and perhaps a piece of fruit. This simple plan will keep your platelets from sticking together, keep blood clots from forming, and perhaps head off a potential
Heart Attack or Stroke.
So never ever skip breakfast.
