Life is not always like the movies. Love isn’t always at first sight. Very often, a relationship develops slowly and it takes many years between “boy meets girl” and “boy gets girl”. Hum Tum is a refreshing look at the eternal battle of the sexes as it follows the lives of Karan (Saif Ali Khan) and Rhea (Rani Mukerji). Karan is a cartoonist and his character “Hum” and “Tum” reflect his perspective on the strange love-hate relationship between men and women. Rhea is sensitive, well bred and self confident. She can give as good as she gets and is not afraid of standing up to men. Initially, the two have very little in common. But, as life would have it, their paths keep crossing and, over the course of a decade, their relationship evolves, from hate to mutual respect, friendship and finally… In a cinematic universe that offers simplistic scenarios to the complex relationship between men and women. Hum Tum is a novel look at the trials and tribulations of “every man” and “every woman” and their attempts to understand one another.

AboutKidsHealth, leading online provider of children’s health information, reports on possible causes for the alarmingly high growth of non-communicable diseases in the developing world.

In the heart of the densely packed streets of Dhaka in Bangladesh lie two of the country’s largest international middle-schools, Heed and Maple Leaf School. Reputed for their high academic standards, the schools are the most popular and populous in the country, despite one obvious peculiarity: each is missing a playground.

It was a discovery that alarmed physician and epidemiologist, Dr. AKM Alamgir, during his research on childhood obesity on school children in urban Dhaka. He spent the last eleven years investigating the social causes of chronic illnesses, mainly high blood pressure, in Bangladesh. He says that lack of playtime robs these children of much needed physical exercise – which is one of the reasons why over 18% of the children in grades 1 to 4 at these schools are overweight.

The kids also often eat in the school cafeteria, which houses an alarming number of fast-food restaurants. In a country where there is a growing prevalence of high blood pressure among adults in their late twenties, Dr. Alamgir says the childhood lifestyle is priming these kids for developing chronic conditions when they get older.

According the World Health Organization, the rate of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) – diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and chronic pulmonary diseases – are skyrocketing in the global south. Dubbed the “slow-motion catastrophe”, NCDs now account for over 60% of deaths worldwide.

One reason NCDs are on the rise is that we are getting better at treating the communicable disease that plagues many parts of the global South. “Because of intensive interventions, communicable diseases [such as smallpox and polio] will be controlled in developing countries,” explains Dr. Alamgir.

Along with this, the influx of migration from rural to urban settings means more people are using more sedentary means of transport. Together, these changes all cause an inevitable shift in diet and lack staples of healthy eating.

Furthermore, mounting evidence now shows that children who are undernourished in the first two years of life, and who rapidly gain weight later in childhood or adolescence, are at a higher risk of chronic disease related to nutrition. “We now know that the key time to try to recover [nutritionally] is during the first two years of life,” says Dr. Bassani. “We want them to gain weight, but in the right way.”

Unsurprisingly, the issue is also heavily politicized. Globalization has creating more open access to the fast-food conglomerates that profit off unhealthy gluttony. “Like the tobacco [lobby], the food industry is also a very powerful lobby.”

The prescription for preventing NCDs is straightforward: don’t smoke; eat your veggies; exercise. And the earlier you start, the better. “Prudent dietary habit and increment of physical activity in any form can retard the progression of non-communicable diseases,” says Dr. Amirgar, a fact that can often and easily be forgotten.

“Changing human behaviour is difficult. It’s not as easy as taking a pill,” adds Dr. Bassani. “You have to change the way you live,” he says, a message that is now an axiom in the prevention of NCDs.

Restaurant seating is one of the most important items when creating the atmosphere of a restaurant. It is not only where the patrons sit, but also can set the style of the place by the details of the seating, the type of seating, and how it is arranged. Restaurant owners are very careful in choosing all of their Restaurant seating, but I’ve always thought that different types of restaurants should pay special attention to certain types of seating.

The Bars and PubsBars and pubs are, of course, defined by their barstools! This is the first seating you see when you come in the door and the seating that most the patrons will notice. Get a great barstool and you’ll have plenty of regulars sitting at the bar and padding your profits. These come in different materials such as wood, steel, aluminum, and can come upholstered or not. Usually bar owners choose barstools that aren’t upholstered because they are easier to clean when the guy that has had one-too-many spills his beer. If you find an upholstered barstool that you absolutely must have, make sure to spray your fabrics with a protective treatment to make them easier to clean.

The Mom and Pop RestaurantIf you are trying to create that homely hole-in-wall place with amazing food at great prices, you will want to create a comfortable atmosphere that isn’t too fancy. The defining restaurant seating for this establishment is the restaurant booth. Sitting in an upholstered booth creates memories of childhood, comfort food, and family. For smaller restaurants like these, compact booths can save room and still provide the desired atmosphere.

The Upscale RestaurantThe defining item for that fancy restaurant uptown is the restaurant chair. The sky’s the limit with the chair because there are so many options and different variations that each restaurant will be able to find exactly what it needs. It could be an elegant designer chair upholstered with rare fabrics or a sleek minimalistic ladderback chair with no bells or whistles, whatever matches the designer’s vision.

The CaféThe piece of restaurant seating that defines the café is the outdoor chair. These are thoughtfully arranged outside the café and provide their customers a place to sit down and enjoy the weather while sipping their coffee. In fact, designer outdoor chairs with a coffee cup carved into the back are a high demand item. Make sure not to use regular seating outside of your restaurant, outdoor chairs are specially made to last when exposed to all types of weather.

Whatever type of restaurant seating you are looking to purchase, make sure you buy commercial furniture. It may be tempting to save money and buy home furniture, but a table chair for a home is not made to handle the abuse that a restaurant chair takes. You will save money in the long run by buying quality commercial furniture, most of which is covered by manufacturer’s warranties.
