Sugars have been in the news for years, but the story about sugars is often incomplete or confusing. Although there is no doubt that sugars bring sweet pleasure to eating, do sugars have more to offer than just sweetness and calories?
Sugars are a natural part of many foods and are a functional ingredient in others. Regardless of whether sugars occur naturally in foods or are added during manufacturing, during cooking, or at the table, sugars enhance the taste, texture, color, and aroma of many kinds of foods. This article will answer many questions about sugars and will also explain how moderate amounts of sugars can fit into a healthful eating plan, no matter what their source.

Daylight Saving Time March 9, 2007
Posted by RUTH in : Information , add a commentWhen we change our clocks
Beginning in 2007, daylight saving time (DST) will be extended in the United States. DST will start on March 11, 2007, which is three weeks earlier than usual, and it will end on November 4, 2007, which is one week later than usual. This results in a new DST period that is four weeks longer than in previous years. Unless certain updates are applied to your computer, the time zone settings for your computer’s system clock may be incorrect during this four-week period. In particular, you must make sure that both your Windows operating system and your calendar programs are updated. (check your system! )
In the European Union, Summer Time begins and ends at 1:00 a.m. Universal Time (Greenwich Mean Time). It begins the last Sunday in March and ends the last Sunday in October. In the EU, all time zones change at the same moment.

Spring forward, Fall back
During DST, clocks are turned forward an hour, effectively moving an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening

International Women’s Day
International Women’s Day (8 March) is an occasion marked by women’s groups around the world. This date is also commemorated at the United Nations and is designated in many countries as a national holiday. When women on all continents, often divided by national boundaries and by ethnic, linguistic, cultural, economic and political differences, come together to celebrate their Day, they can look back to a tradition that represents at least nine decades of struggle for equality, justice, peace and development.

International Women's Day is the story of ordinary women as makers of history; it is rooted in the centuries-old struggle of women to participate in society on an equal footing with men. In ancient Greece, Lysistrata initiated a sexual strike against men in order to end war; during the French Revolution, Parisian women calling for "liberty, equality, fraternity" marched on Versailles to demand women's suffrage.
