The Butter Carver
The 63-years sculptor from Pennsylvania (USA) works in unusual technics. It creates sculptures from butter almost full-scale. There are a cow on motorcycle, an old man, milking a cow, a girl in bikini and the detailed model of a dairy farm among his works. The sculptor prefers monumental technics because of butter softness. He should maintain the constantly cool temperature in his workshop because of specificity of the material. The master spends about one month to produce one figure. Except butter, he likes to work with chocolate, cheese, fruit and vegetables. There are chocolate Lui Armstrong, Mikky Runy and Robi Williams among his well known works.

Sugar Helps to Avoid Accident
Sweet in big amount raises concentration of attention and even is capable to help to avoid accidents. Investigated subjects reacted more quickly to emergency situations after one hour at the wheel of the automobile simulator if they ate sugar on a regular basis. At the Freiburg University scientists have created the simulator of a twisting line; it has the length of 120 km. Shortly before start and twice on road drivers drank lemonade (0,9 liter = 90 gr of sugar). After a while they have repeated a trip, they drank a sweet drink, but this time it was without sugar.

Result: on a finishing section they have admitted much more mistakes.

Conclusion: sugar raises the insulin that mode that the brain forms more serotonin which stimulates and increases concentration of hormones. However, to eat too much of sugar harmfully, because there is a failure of insulin development.

Tennis Players Have Replaced their Racket by Kitchen Knifes
Successfully overcome the first round on the prestigious Kremlin Cup, tennis players Ameli Moresimo and Dinara Safin did not wait the next duel on a court, but they tried their forces in culinary art.

While the chief-cook explained to competitors the feature of preparation of “Kremli style flounder”, girls already threw impatient sights on fish, marrows, greens and spices. The leader helped girls a little; he cut a fish fillet on slices himself. And tennis players cooked sauces and vegetables.

Dinar bossed kitchen utensils so thriftily as if she costs every day at a plate. But the French has approached to process enough alerted. And Dinars imagination appeared better. Unlike Moresimo who has simply put the flounder over the marrows halves, Safin has decorated all the plate with vegetables ringlets.

But, as it is always happen in such cases, the friendship has won.

Intellectual Work Makes the Glutton of the Person
People, who have intellectual work and the activity demanding the high intellectual activity, consume a lot of calories and get used to the unhealthy food allowance more quickly.

Canadian researchers from Lavalya University have examined dietary habits of people which work demands enhanced attention, intellectual concentration and good memory. After 45 minutes of work participants of the experiment were offered to have dinner in buffet. It has been counted up, that though each intellectual problem demands low expenses of the organism energy, however at the same time it provokes almost on 30 % or on 203 calories more consumption of food.

Besides the samples of the volunteers blood taken before, during and after their brainwork, have shown astable levels of insulin and glucose. Presumably such fluctuations can be provoked by the brain tension. Our body reacts on the imbalance of the important substances and tries to restore normal parameters of glucose. Glucose serves some kind of fuel for a brain, encouraging the person to use more products.

Dark Chocolate and Bilberry are Capable to Counteract with Diabetes and Occurrence of Superfluous Kgs
Dark chocolate and bilberry are not only useful to health. As results of the published research of scientists from Stockholm Institute and Erebru University show, these two products are capable to counteract with occurrence of diabetes and superfluous kgs.

Some chocolate grades have been offered to participants of the experiment lead by these medical centers. Unlike white and milk chocolate, the 85% dark chocolate practically has not affected a level of insulin and sugar in blood. The bilberry drink without sugar possessed the same positive action. Besides researchers have noted, that chocolate (depending on its grade) effected differently on representatives of a different sex. So the most insalubrious for men has appeared white chocolate, and milk chocolate — for women.

“It is very interesting result. We see that it is possible to recommend dark chocolate for people sick diabetes and people with excess weight. Processing of fats in liver of women and men occurs differently, this can explain the distinctions in perception of chocolate grades”, — Professor Kerstin Brismar speaks.
