Lays Chips HARAAM: Propaganda or Truth?
Some days back I received on SMS and an Email saying that, Lays Chips (Masala Flavor) is HARAAM. On the back of the Lays chips “E631 Fat” is printed which means the oil of pig meat. And it further says that for clarification write this name on Google search and you will find the results. When I searched on Google what I found is that it is a Guinea pig fat that is being used for cooking purpose. But again there is difference of opinion. Some people say that it’s not an authentic information that E631 is really the pig fat.
Looking for summer BBQ fun? How about cooking shrimps?
When you hear the word “summer”, what comes in your mind first? Let me guess, summer sports, right, but what if I say in context of cooking, and then you should be thinking of cooking some shrimps, the best Way to Light Charcoal
There are many ways of cooking shrimps, but I have outlined a basic method to help you get started in the first place.
For a pound of shrimp you will need to bring two quarts of water to boil. Then you will have to salt the water lightly. If you prefer you can add lemon juice to the water, this is optional though, so do it however you prefer.

Once the water is at a boil, you will then have to shut off the heat that is under the water. Then add the shrimp to the water all at once. After this, let them steep for about 3 to 5 minutes. Remember, shrimp are better when you cook them gently.
Your shrimps will be done by this stage, however, you can quickly boil or poach them, which is the most common method, put them in a skillet with butter or oil, in a fryer, on a barbecue grill, a steamer, or in a hot oven. This is likely to make them more tasty and delicious.
Hope the procedure is clear.
Snooker Clubs Driving Youth to Disaster

Snooker started off in the latter half of 19th century by India and British Army Officers and is played as regular sport. Many of the professionals of this game have earned millions of dollars and have billion dollars careers. In Pakistan, many youngsters are big fans of this game and usually found in Snooker clubs making their ‘careers’. I am not saying that this sport spoils our youth BUT there is a thing, called TIME which is much more important than anything. I myself, visit snooker club at times but not to spend whole my day puffing cigarettes and abusing each other, but to get myself out of the stress or just to enjoy.
What I noticed that 80% of the people in snooker clubs are students of schools/colleges/universities who bunk their classes and spend their study hours at snooker clubs wasting money, time, and last but not the least spoiling their health (98% of them smoke, even they are not chain smokers, they smoke at least 15-20 cigarettes in 5-6 hours). Unfortunately, my brother is one of them that’s why am more authentic to write this.

If It’s Cloudy, It’s Intelligent [Research Report]
I was reading the newspaper when I went through this article and found it really interesting to share it with others. Some people think that if its cloudy outside, then they feel dull and dumb.

Transportation System in Twin Cities
