CULTURAL QA09-2023-03 Q1 Isit normal to wake up twice every day to use the toilet? I woke up three timeswith a full bladder. I’ve always been like this and I barely drank any waterthat day.
A1 Wilma Robertson, Former Retired Nurse at National HealthService (NHS) (1967–2012)Jun 12 Not drinking water isn’t the answer, if youdon’t drink water the urine in the bladder will be very concentrated and thisis why the bladder becomes irritated and wants to empty. Try increasing your fluid intake. Q2 Whatis Amul milk made of? Why is it unnaturally thick and white? A2 Prashant Srivastava, Content Planner (2019–present) Updated3y I have worked with AMUL as a Sales Professional during 2003–2004. I amnot getting into technical details here but explaining a general understandingof the Amul quality legacy. Before going on board in thefield for Sales, Amul conducts 1-month comprehensive induction training at itsheadquarters Anand, Gujarat, India, that I think no any other organizationdoes. During Training our journeystarted with Classrooms detailing about products. Then started our day byvisiting a nearby village, from where ultimately the product journey starts. Westayed in teams at different villages at Night. Early in the morning around 4 a.m. we woke up andvisited the milk collection centre situated nearby. A van from Amul plant camethere and guys were sitting at the centre to collect milk from villagers with amachine (which checks the density of milk). Villagers are being paid on the basis of density of theirmilk produced and not just the quantity, amazing isn’t it? ( You know, this way villagers don’t adulterate the milk for getting a better price - Quality of Milk wellassured). After milk collection, we sat in Milk Collection Vans andwent straight to the plant, saw the milk being unloaded to the plant tanks andprocessing started from there. No scope of adulteration at anystep, as we saw each step of production from scratch to finish. (This is doneat Amul to ensure the confidence of their brand among sales professionals,which they ultimately translate in the market and beat the brands like Nestle,Cadbury, Brittania, etc.) In India, 99% public (sorry, I amnot sure just a vague guess) don’t know that they are eating Frozen Dessertinstead of Ice-Cream. Only Amul makes Ice Creams (Yes it’s true). Ice cream is a product which ismade from MILK FAT and manufacturers can write on the pack ICE CREAM word onlywhen it is made up of milk fat - Amul Does it. Other products are called FROZENDESSERTS ( Because they are made up of Vegetable Fat) Check the package label beforeeating ice cream next time when you buy it. So the question - What is Amul milkmade of? Why is it unnaturally thick and white? - Because it’s REAL MILK. Hope I answered the question. Edits, Suggestions, Upvotes,Follows - Most Welcome Edit 1: I agree with some membersthat apart from Amul few more regional brands make milk fat based Ice-Creams. Edit 2: I may have forgotten somedetails related to milk collection against density, some more parameters arealso followed to check the purity, my experience dates back to 2003. Edit3: Taste may vary region wise as milk quality is different indifferent states’ cattle. Edit 4: I agree taste may differ due to injections being given tocattle. Edit5: Few more co-operatives arereplicating this system in different states, but Amul is a pioneer and examplesetter and available Pan India. Edit 6: Availability could be an issue atseveral places as some regional players’ distributors don’t take interest inAmul distribution due to low margins, that’s the reason forunavailability in several regions. Edit7: Adulteration since procurement toproduct packaging is not possible at Amul, later after reaching the marketlocal competitors may devise ways to adulterate to affect the sales and brand valuedue to competition but I have no evidence and not sure. Q3 Whydo pilots not seem afraid when landing their planes? A3 James Marshall, Private pilot, New Zealand, 2010Updated Jun19 Landing an aircraft has been described bysome people as a "controlled crash". You don't fly onto the runway as much as you stop flying just over therunway.You basically lower the aircraft bit by bit until you are almost on the runway,reduce power to idle, then at the last moment you change the angle of the wingsby raising the nose of the aircraft to break the last of the lift holding youin the air, so hopefullyyour main landing wheels touch down comfortably, then you hold the remainingpressure on the yoke and let the nose wheel gradually lower on its own. A lot can go wrong. A lot of accidents occur duringthe take off or landing phases of flight. The aircraft is in the danger zone:low and slow. That means the risk of stalling the aircraft is high. Cross-windsor low level turbulence can be challenging. Judging distances can be difficult. Everything happensquite quickly. You are trying to keep wings level and manage yourspeed. As you getcloser to the runway you realise just how fast you are actually going. As aresult, it is not uncommon to feel the adrenalin pumping as you land. Landing an aircraft is always exhilarating and intense, but since you arehighly trained in how to do it, it is nothing to fear. Q4 Whydid Lord Krishna break his flute, and how did Radha die? A4 Santosh Kumar Sahoo, Author General knowledge Books Mar 27 When Krishna saw Radha, he wasvery happy. Both talked to each other for a long time. However, nobody knew Radha inDwarka. She requested Krishna to appoint her as a Devika in the palace. Radha lived in the palacethroughout the day and as soon as she got the chance, she used to see Krishna. But in the palace, Radha could not feel the spiritual connection withLord Krishna like before. So Radha decided to go away from the palacewith the aim to establish a deep spiritual relationship with Shri Krishna. Radha did not know where she was going and iscompletely lonely and weak in her last days. Lord Shri Krishna came in front of them in the last time. Krishna told Radha that he demanded something from her, but Radharefused. On the request of Krishna again, Radha said that she wants to see herplaying flute for the last time. Sri Krishna took a flute and started playing in a veryharmonious tune. Shri Krishna played flute day and nightuntil Radha took her last breathe and merged with Krishna in a spiritual way. Radha abandoned her body while listening to the tunes of the flute. Lord Krishna could not bear Radha's death andbroke his flute as a symbolic ending of love and threw it into the bush. Sincethen, Sri Krishna has not played the flute or any other instrument of life. Q5 Whenwe set the AC temperature to 24 degrees Celsius, we feel too much cold, butwhen the normal temperature is 24 degree Celsius we can tolerate it. Why so? A5 Prasanna Bhalerao, M. Sc. in Electronics & Physics,Fergusson College, Pune Updated 2y Ah! The common misunderstanding! The AC has two modes - coolingmode and fan mode. TheAC also has a thermostat on the cooling coil that measures room temperature. What is the common misunderstanding? It is that mostbelieve that when the AC is set at 24° C, the air blowing out (during thecooling cycle) is at 24° C. Thisis not true. Regardlessof whatever the temperature set on the AC, be it anything from 18° C to 28° C,the temperature of the blowing air is the same. Not convinced? If you have a roomthermometer, hold it against the blowing air and verify. The blowing air isreally chilly when the compressor is ON. It would be as cold as 16~18° C, maybelower in more powerful and large ACs. The AC sucks in room air over the coolingcoils and cools it. It blows this cold air out in the room. The thermostatmeasures the incoming room air temperature. When the thermostat senses that theset temperature is reached, it shuts off the compressor and the fan/blowerremains in operation. Even then this does not mean that room hasreached the set temperature (say 26° C). This is because the AC sucks the air nearthe AC and that could be at 26° C.Thethermostat does have some calibration to compensate for this. However, near the AC is cold, away from the AC is not so cold. When we are in an AC environment, if wehappen to be in the path of the direct draft, the very chill air blows on usand makes us feel much cold.
