      4.  Q5      G     White Chocolate does not have any chocolate.

   KR       Duping is sensational; then why are they named as Chaco?
   Because a kerala minister? The syrup liquid alone making it colourful alone
   is not added; but it is a cocoa bean only. White chocolate comes from the
   same cocoa beans as regular chocolate but bypasses several of the
   production steps. White chocolate does not have cocoa or chocolate liquor.
   White chocolate made of cocoa butter blended with a combination of sugar,
   cream, milk and vanilla flavouring.

   G     Leonardo da Vinci could write with one hand and draw with the
   other at the same time.

   KR     Ambi dextrous people are so many on this earth/ Da Vinci is one
   such There is nothing to blow any one’s mind; Manian selvan artist used
   both hands to draw.

   G      In an emergency, one wax crayon can burn brightly for about 30
   minutes.

   KR      Wax added materials shall burn ; but non wax items also can be
   burnt for light. What is there to blow your mind?

   G      You can survive entirely on potatoes and butter which provide all
   necessary nutrients the human body needs.

   KR       Yesterday was for Banana l today to blow  potatoe; your own fat
   can keep you alive also for a few more days.

   G     One gram of your DNA is sufficient to store all of Facebook and
   Google's data.

   KR        Who weighed it?; who calculated the data writing style?; and
   DNA is a printer or memory card we use normally?; unaware of what is DNA is
   spun around by 20 year olds in FB which os copycat by Gs.

   G     The man with the longest beard in the world (17.5) feet tripped
   over it, broke his neck and died.

   KR    What about man wearing slippers fell down and died?  Childish news
   agencies like Dina thanthi

   G       If a Cockroach touches a human, it will run away and clean
   itself.

   KR      I always say human gossip columns; one is this cockroach touches
   man and self-clean; a small group is feeding all of us a laughing stuff and
   one is this: The real truth:” A new study
   <http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2013/01/29/1212466110.abstract> from
   researchers at N.C. State finds that cockroaches must clean themselves
   incessantly in order to function properly. The findings are important not
   just for scientists studying insect behavior, but also – to the relief of
   those who suffer from infestations – might provide clues in developing more
   effective pesticides.

   Cockroaches groom themselves constantly by running their antennae and
   legs through their mouths. This removes environmental buildup and allows
   the insects to smell food, find mates, and sense danger. Without clean
   antennae, according to the study
   <http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2013/01/29/1212466110.abstract>,
   cockroaches’ abilities to perform basic functions were significantly
   impaired.

   Cockroaches have a reputation as stubborn and pervasive pests. Aside
   from making people jump, they can also cause significant problems in
   people’s homes. Some of the problems include:
   - Allergies – Cockroaches produce proteins that can cause asthma,
      similar to pollen. In places with high degrees of infestation, like inner
      city areas, this can trigger severe cases of childhood asthma.
      - Pathogens – By going between the sewer system and people’s
      kitchens, cockroaches easily spread harmful bacteria around the house.
      - Contamination – Cockroaches defecate all over the surfaces they
      touch, depositing harmful bacteria in places that people eat off of or on
      things people ingest.
      - Electronic issues – Cockroaches like warm places, such as
      appliances or electrical boxes, and they often cause short circuits. In
      industrial situations, cockroach infestations can cost thousands
of dollars
      worth of damage.

   So how do the findings help us deal with cockroaches? Senior author Coby
   Schal says that the most important result is simply in our understanding of
   fundamental insect behavior. The study shows how well-groomed antennae are
   vital not just to finding food, but also for basic life functions. It also
   reveals what sorts of substances the roaches cleaned from their bodies –
   things like foreign substances and bodily oils.
   But Schal also points out that the study could help researchers who wish
   to design chemicals to target cockroaches.  “Most pest control depends on a
   broadcast application, on spraying chemicals on a surface and hoping the
   roach walks over it,” says Schal. But now that we know how and why
   cockroaches clean their bodies, he says that researchers could this
   knowledge to develop insecticides that are more targeted to their specific
   behavior.

   The findings were published online this week in the Proceedings of the
   National Academy of Sciences
   <http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2013/01/29/1212466110.abstract>.
   Co-authors of the study were Ayako Wada-Katsumata and Katalin Boroczky.
