Why a glass of milk doesn't suit you

Are you lactose intolerant? (Thinkstock photos/Getty Images)

Ways to deal with lactose intolerance 

All of us grew up with our moms forcing us to drink a glass of milk but there are some of us who are lactose intolerant. Then you drink milk or eat foods with milk in them, you may get diarrhea, gas, and cramps. There's no need to drink a glass of milk and feel comfortable after that. Some dairy foods such as custard, cottage cheese, and yogurt have less lactose than milk. You may be able to eat them even if milk upsets your stomach. 

If you can't eat dairy products without problems, you may have to go on a low-lactose or lactose-free diet. If you do, keep in mind that since lactose is a sugar that's also used to sweeten foods, it may be found in products that aren't milk-based. May be you should ask your physician about ways to deal with this problem. Now you can also have probiotics yogurt (beneficial bacteria that can help your body digest lactose). 

What you must eat if you are lactose intolerant: 
- Milk and milk products are high in calcium. So, in absence of that, eat other foods that are high in calcium. - If you're worried about getting enough calcium, try to eat more leafy green vegetables, nuts, seeds, beans and dried figs. You can also ask your physician about adding calcium supplements to your diet. 
- Consider soy milk as an alternative to cow's milk. It can be good substitutes if they're fortified with calcium and vitamin D and you're getting enough protein from other foods in your diet. 
- Try imitation dairy products. Try tofu and non-dairy sour cream, whipped topping, and coffee creamer instead of the dairy originals. 
- Use dairy products that have cultures in them, such as yogurt, buttermilk, and some cheeses. They have less lactose, and the cultures help your body digest the little bit that's there. 
- If you want your milk shake, there are restaurants now which serve vegan shakes too. 
- And if you are a tea addict, don't give so much of thought to milk. The market is now full of all kinds of tea like orange-passion fruit tea, jasmine tea, tulsi-ginger tea which you can have without adding milk. And yes, Darjeeling tea tastes heavenly without milk. So, enjoy your morning cuppa even if you are lactose intolerant

Microsoft to acquire Nokia's handset business for $7.2bn

Finland's Nokia, once the undisputed leader in mobile phones, has been struggling to respond to the challenge from smartphone makers such as Apple and Samsung.

HELSINKI: Microsoft Corp on Tuesday said it would buy Nokia's mobile phone business for 5.44 billion euros, and the Finnish firm said its CEO, Stephen Elop, would join Microsoft when the transaction closed.

Finland's Nokia, once the undisputed leader in mobile phones, has been struggling to respond to the challenge from smartphone makers such as Apple and Samsung.

Analysts say Elop's bold bet in 2011 to adopt Microsoft's untested Windows Phone software has yet to pay off.

The deal is expected to close in the first quarter of 2014 and is subject to approval by Nokia's shareholders and regulatory approvals. Nokiapartnered in 2011 with Microsoft and uses Microsoft's Windows software to run its mobile phones.

"It's a bold step into the future - a win-win for employees, shareholders and consumers of both companies," Microsoft's outgoing CEO, Steve Ballmer, said in a statement.

"Bringing these great teams together will accelerate Microsoft's share and profits in phones, and strengthen the overall opportunities for both Microsoft and our partners across our entire family of devices and services."

Nokia said in a statement it expected that Elop, along with senior executives Jo Harlow, Juha Putkiranta, Timo Toikkanen, and Chris Weber, would transfer to Microsoft when the deal was concluded. It did not say what roles they would take at Microsoft.

Nokia board chairman Risto Siilasmaa would take over CEO duties while the Finnish firm looked for a new CEO, it said.

Elop, a Canadian hired by Nokia in 2010 from Microsoft, has been one of the favourites to take over as Microsoft chief when Ballmer steps down

Skype sees 3D video calling in its future

"We know how to make it work," Microsoft exec says. In the lab, that is. Now if only the technology could be harnessed for consumer devices.

Skype is working on three-dimensional video calling, but release is hampered until camera and video capture technology catches up.

In an interview with the BBC, Microsoft's Skype vice president Mark Gillett said that the popular video chat and instant-messaging app has the potential to support 3D conversations in the future, but it may be "many years" before the technology can be launched.

"We've done work in the labs looking at the capability of 3D-screens and 3D-capture," the senior executive commented. "We've seen a lot of progress in screens and a lot of people now buy TVs and computer monitors that are capable of delivering a 3D image. But the capture devices are not yet there."

Gillet explained that in order for 3D video calling to take place, multiple cameras have to be added to a computer system where they are precisely calibrated and pointed at the right angles to take suitable images. The executive told the BBC that Skype's research and development teams have been working on this system "in the lab" and "we know how to make it work," but the current ecosystem of devices such can support 3D technology is limited.

The three-dimensional viewing format has taken a beating recently, having failed to live up to the initial excitement surrounding its arrival. The BBC has ditched its 3D channels because of poor user demand, describing the technology as "hassly." Disney's ESPN has also announced the closure of 3D cable in the US, saying that the service may be resumed in the future "if or when 3D does take off."

While Skype's adoption of 3D technology could shore up flagging consumer interest, Gillet believes that video calling is likely to be low on the list of applications used by the technology in the future.

"You'll see much more penetration of 3D on TVs, on computers and ultimately in smartphones, probably, ahead of seeing it for sending a video call," Gillet admitted.

In the meantime, the senior executive said that Skype -- purchased by Microsoft in 2011 -- is exploring how to offer 1080p resolution video calls on devices other than the upcoming Xbox One.

Microsoft makes Surface sale prices permanent

Price cuts on the Surface Pro, Surface RT, and Touch Covers are made permanent, rather than promotional.

Microsoft has made previously temporary price-cut promotions for its Surface devices permanent.

Starting Thursday, Surface Pro, Touch Cover, and Surface RT bundle price adjustments will begin to roll out all markets where Surface and Surface accessories are currently sold.

What are these adjustments?

• $100 off Surface Pro (including the 256 GB SKU). This means the entry-level Surface Pro will now start at $799.
• $40 off Touch Covers. Touch Covers will now start at $79, and Limited Edition Touch Covers will now start at $89.
• $50 off Surface RT bundles. Surface RT bundles will now start at $399.

Microsoft will be doing a "phased approach" to these pricing adjustments "in order to meet customer demand and retailer expectations," a spokesperson said. Users can find information on pricing changes in their specific locations via www.surface.com, a spokesperson said.

"The customer response to recent Surface pricing and keyboard-cover promotions has been exciting to see, and we are proud to begin rollout of Surface Pro, Touch Cover, and Surface RT bundles at even more affordable prices starting August 29," said a spokesperson in an e-mailed statement.

Neowin first reported that the $100 Surface Pro price cut, which originally was supposed to end today, would become permanent. WPCentral reported last week about the coming Surface RT bundle and Touch Cover cuts.

'Smart' socks that let parents track baby's health

Now you can monitor your baby's heart rate and oxygen from your smartphone!

A US baby product company claims to have created the world's first 'smart sock' that lets parents monitor their baby's vital signs through a smartphone while he sleeps.

The sock transmits a child's heart rate, oxygen levels, skin temperature, sleep quality, and sleep position (rollover alerts) to a parent's smartphone or other Internet-based device, the company said.

"Every parent knows what it's like to lay in bed and stress about whether your child is breathing," said Jacob Colvin, founder of the company.

Currently there is nothing on the consumer market that can show parents their child's heart rate and oxygen levels.

"A hospital pulse oximeter costs parents around a thousand dollars. We are so excited that we can offer peace of mind to parents at a financially feasible price," said Kurt Workman Owlet Founder/CEO of Owlet Baby Care Home.

Workman first had the idea when caring for his twin cousins who were born prematurely.

However, the Owlet Vitals Monitor is not a medical device, neither should it be used for diagnostic purposes, the company said.

The monitor is also the first "wearable technology" in the infant space and is especially unique because it applies a safe, proven hospital technology in a new way: utilising multiple sensors, so it can grow with your child.

The monitor continues to work as long as it fits the child's foot, and it has been beta tested on infants up to two years old.

Heart rate and oxygen levels are found using an innovative four sensor pulse oximeter.

"Having four sensors allows for nine different reading combinations. Hospital pulse oximeters only allow for one combination of light and sensor, making Owlet's monitor a vast improvement over current technology. The new design allows the

Owlet monitor to automatically adjust data read for foot growth, movement, and various levels of ambient light," said Zack Bombsta, Chief Engineering Officer.

Additional features include Rollover Alerts, skin temperature, and sleep-quality tracking.

Kolkata student builds a drone

Subhanjan Saha has his eyes in the sky. A three metre by one metre drone, or unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), built by him from scratch has garnered widespread attention - but unfortunately, the top brass in India's defence and aeronautics sectors are yet to respond.

Saha, a 21-year-old computer science student of Manindra Chandra College Kolkata, has written to the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and the Bangalore-based Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) to fund and help upgrade his drone so that it can be deployed for the country's defence and in other spheres.

"I have written to the DRDO and HAL, but there has been no positive response yet. It's built from basic materials but is capable of camera surveillance, weather forecasting, attack and defence and much more..only if the authorities can fund the upgradation," Saha told IANS.

"I want it to be used for the country's benefit," Saha emphasised.

Daubed in the colours of the Indian flag - saffron, white and green on the sides - the drone, whcih resembles an aircraft, was engineered by Saha over a span of four to five years.

Equipped with two 180-degree high-definition cameras (one in the front and one in the back), the aerial vehicle is remote-controlled and once airborne can scan a 10-km area.

"It is powered by rechargeable batteries and is eco-friendly. At a stretch it can go on for 40 to 90 minutes with an average of 60 minutes. If I get help from the authorities, then it can be transformed to function longer," explained Saha, who was born at Kalna in Burdwan district.

The body of the drone has been fabricated from a sturdy form of thermocole available in local markets, while the electronic components have been sourced from abroad via online orders.

"The electronic parts are very expensive in India. So I got a friend to help me out with net-banking and placed orders online," Saha said.

He has been scrimping and saving through all these years to finance his drones. At the last count, he has four other aerial vehicles in stock.

"I used to save the money that I got from winning various competitions over the years. My earnings from giving tuitions also contributed to the budget that stands at Rs. 80, 000 to Rs.1 lakh per drone," said Saha.

Guiding Saha in his efforts is the NGO Prantakatha and Abhijit Mukherjee of the S.N. Bose Centre for Basic Sciences Kolkata.

"We provided Saha with the email ids and other contacts. He has been writing to them. A lot of individuals and organisations have shown interest in helping him but so far we have not received any response from the government agencies," Bappaditya Mukherjee of Prantakatha told IANS.

"We are trying to open a dialogue with the central government but if it does not respond, we will go with the private agencies," Saha said.

Nokia Lumia 1520 compared alongside Lumia 1020 in new leaked image

Nokia might not have confirmed anything about its rumoured Nokia Lumia 1520 big screen smartphone, code-named Bandit, but that doesn't stop rumours surrounding it from surfacing online.

The first image of the alleged phablet from the Finnish handset maker emerged on The Verge forumposted by one of the members. The image reveals the yet to be announced Nokia Lumia 1520 pictured alongside the company's flagship smartphone, the Nokia Lumia 1020.

The leaked image does not reveal a lot of details related to the alleged Nokia Lumia 1520 phone except indicating its expected size. The image shows the two devices, the Lumia 1020 and the alleged Lumia 1520 kept side-by-side with the display of the both the devices switched on.

In the image, the alleged device seems much larger compared against the Nokia Lumia 1020 that features a 4.5-inch display. The Nokia Lumia 1520 will reportedly feature the biggest display on a Lumia device launched till now.

However, The Verge notes that it was unable to fully confirm if the image was accurate. Earlier, @evleaks claimed that Nokia's alleged Bandit phablet will be dubbed as the Nokia Lumia 1520.

Previously, it was reported that Nokia was currently testing a 6-inch device running an updated version of the Windows Phone 8 OS. The device was said to be code-named 'Bandit' and expected to include a full-HD (1080p) display and a Qualcomm Snapdragon quad-core processor.

It also suggested that the alleged Nokia phablet would ship with a 20-megapixel rear camera and may borrow the rear panel features of the Nokia Lumia 925 to accommodate the camera. However, the device may not be unveiled before Microsoft rolls out the GDR3 update to existing Windows Phone devices. Microsoft is reportedly testing the GDR3 software update for Windows Phone 8.

Purported images of HTC One Max dual-SIM with fingerprint scanner appear online

It appears that the alleged HTC One Max large screen smartphone, will have a fingerprint scanner, if a new leaked image is to be believed.

The new images posted on ePrice feature the long-rumoured HTC One Max. The images reveal that the alleged phablet from the Taiwanese device maker will also come in a dual-SIM variant and will feature a fingerprint scanner.

The site claims that it received the upcoming HTC One Max headed for carriers in China with support for GSM+GSM/ WCDMA, dual-SIM with dual standby. The leaked images have also revealed that the rumoured HTC phablet will feature a removable rear panel with support for expandable memory, although the battery will not be user replaceable.

As we mentioned, the leaked images also reveal that the alleged HTC One Max phone will be equipped with a fingerprint scanner. In one of the leaked images, the pull-down menu shortcut control houses an icon for a fingerprint scanner alongside the usual toggles for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Brightness, profile and Battery. However, no additional details about the feature were available.

In line with previous rumours, if the fingerprint scanner is indeed present on HTC's next device, it could be a major USP and could find usage in authenticating users to unlock the phone or for mobile payment authorisations.

Rumours of the HTC One Max sporting a fingerprint scanner come at a time when other rumours pointing to Apple's next generation smartphone sporting a similar feature are rife. Rumours have pointed out that the next iPhone 5S could also include a fingerprint reader feature that could provide a seamless way to authenticate users while unlocking the phone.

Earlier, a report in the Chinese media claimed that the HTC One Max will likely run on Android 4.3 Jelly Bean with HTC's Sense 5.5 UI on top. Other leaked specifications include TD-LTE connectivity, 5.9-inch full-HD display with 1080x1920 pixels resolution, 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon processor with 2GB of RAM and Wi-Fi. The site also revealed that the alleged HTC One Max will sport a 2.1-megapixel front-facing camera and an UltraPixel camera on the back, which was first introduced on theHTC One.

Google co-founder Brin and wife living apart - spokesperson

Google Inc co-founder Sergey Brin is living apart from his wife, who is the chief executive of a biotech firm that Google has invested millions of dollars in and whose sister is one of the Internet search company's top executives.

Brin and Anne Wojcicki, who married in 2007, have been living apart for several months, the couple's spokesperson said.

"They remain good friends and partners," the spokesperson added.

The technology blog AllThingsD on Wednesday was the first to report of the couple's living apart. Brin and Wojcicki, who have two children and who have a prenuptial agreement, are not yet legally separated, the report said.

Susan Wojcicki, Anne's sister, is Senior Vice President of Ads and Commerce for Google and is considered one of the Internet company's top executives.

The relationship between Google and the Wojcickis dates back to the company's earliest days: in 1998, the nascent search company set up shop in Susan Wojcicki's garage shortly after raising its first funding.

Google has invested roughly $10 million in 23andMe, the company that Anne Wojcicki co-founded in 2006 and which maps DNA and provides clients with information about their ancestry.

Facebook considers adding profile photos to facial recognition

Facebook Inc is considering incorporating most of its 1 billion-plus members' profile photos into its growing facial recognition database, expanding the scope of the social network's controversial technology.

The possible move, which Facebook revealed in an update to its data use policy on Thursday, is intended to improve the performance of its "Tag Suggest" feature. The feature uses facial recognition technology to speed up the process of labeling or "tagging" friends and acquaintances who appear in photos posted on the network.

The technology currently automatically identifies faces in newly uploaded photos by comparing them only to previous snapshots in which users were tagged. Facebook users can choose to remove tags identifying them in photos posted by others on the site.

The changes would come at a time when Facebook and other Internet companies' privacy practices are under scrutiny, following the revelations of a U.S. government electronic surveillance program.

Facebook, Google Inc and other companies have insisted that they have never participated in any program giving the government direct access to their computer servers and that they only provide information in response to specific requests, after careful review and as required by law.

Facebook Chief Privacy Officer Erin Egan said that adding members' public profile photos would give users better control over their personal information, by making it easier to identify posted photos in which they appear.

"Our goal is to facilitate tagging so that people know when there are photos of them on our service," Egan said.

She stressed that Facebook users uncomfortable with facial recognition technology will still be able to "opt out" of the Tag Suggest feature altogether, in which case the person's public profile photo would not be included in the facial recognition database.

Facial recognition technology has been a sensitive issue for technology companies, raising concerns among some privacy advocates and government officials. Tag Suggest, which the company introduced in 2011, is not available in Europe due to concerns raised by regulators there.

Google's social network, Google+, also employs similar technology, but requires user consent. And it has banned third-party software makers from using facial recognition technology in apps designed for its Glass wearable computer.

Egan said Facebook was not currently using facial recognition technology for any other features, but that could change.

"Can I say that we will never use facial recognition technology for any other purposes? Absolutely not," Egan said. But, she noted, "if we decided to use it in different ways we will continue to provide people transparency about that and we will continue to provide control."

Facebook also amended its Statement of Rights and Responsibilities on Thursday, adding and tweaking the language so that members under 18 years of age are deemed to have affirmed that a parent or legal guardian has agreed to allow marketers to use some of their personal information in ads.

The language was the result of a recent court-approved legal settlement regarding its "sponsored stories" ads.

Samsung Galaxy Note III release pegged for September 27

With Samsung's supposed September 4 Galaxy Note III unveiling event just a week away, now we hear rumours about the expected release dates for the device in various markets.

A new report claims that the Galaxy Note III will reportedly go on sale on September 27 in the Taiwanese market, while the device will be up for pre-orders from September 16.

The news comes from the Taiwanese site ePrice which cites its sources and claims that the dates of pre-orders and launch may be changed; however the site does not expect major changes in the roll out of the device in Taiwan.

Earlier, a Samsung official had confirmed that the company will be unveiling the next-generation Galaxy Note device and the long-rumoured Galaxy Gear smart watch on September 4. There have been reports that suggested that the South Korean major may start shipping the Galaxy Note III in September itself. An earlier report had indicated the likely shipping date of the latest Note device to be from week 36, which is from September 2 to September 8.

Recently, a new set of leaked images of the alleged Galaxy Note III screen surfaced online, that suggested that the next Galaxy Note device will feature a 5.68-inch display.

Other rumoured specifications include a full-HD Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 1080x1920 pixels, quad-core Snapdragon 800/ Exynos octa-core processor with 3GB of RAM. The internal storage capacity is expected to start from 32GB, instead of 16GB as has been the norm with flagship devices. It is also said to sport a 13-megapixel rear camera, a 3,200mAh battery, and run Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.

iPhone 5C and iPhone 5S: More evidence points to September 20 release date

More evidence pointing to September 20 as the iPhone(s)' release date has emerged online.

According to Tmo News, which calls itself the unofficial T-Mobile blog, T-Mobile is planning to schedule employee blackout between September 20 and September 22. This essentially means that T-Mobile employees will not be able to take a leave for the purpose of a vacation during this period. While it's not directly related to the iPhone's release, carriers do institute blackout periods for busy days which also includes days just immediately after the release of a new iPhone.

If one connects the dots, Nikkei, the Japanese business publication had earlier suggested that Apple would release the iPhone 5S and the low cost iPhone or iPhone 5C on September 20 in Japan, indicating that the first wave of the new iPhone's release would commence on the same day. Greece-based website, Techmaniacs had also confirmed that the iPhone 5S and the iPhone 5C would launch on September 20

A number of rumours including some by credible publications and journalists have confirmed September 10 as the most probable date for Apple hosting a special event to announce the new iPhone(s).

The iPhone is usually made available to the public in major markets including US, Canada, France, Japan, Hong Kong, UK, and Singapore, around a week after the official announcement.

Apple has not sent any invitations or announced an event officially, yet, though it typically sends out official invitations only a week before the actual event.

The iPhone 5S is expected to come with a brand new Apple chip, the A7, alongside 1GB of LPDDR3 RAM, retaining the form factor of the iPhone 5. A 128GB storage variant of the phone has also been rumoured. The iPhone 5S is likely to come with a larger f2.0 aperture compared to the iPhone 5, that comes with f2.4 aperture. It's also likely to sport a fingerprint reader.

The low-cost iPhone or iPhone 5C has leaked several times. Alleged pictures of the iPhone 5C have revealed a plastic polycarbonate body back panel in White, Blue, Red, Yellow and Green colours, a round camera lens and LED flash, Apple logo and iPhone branding. It's expected to be powered by a dual-core CPU, and have a 4-inch screen, just like the iPhone 5, with a resolution of 640x1136 pixels. The iPhone 5C is rumoured to have 1GB of RAM, and come in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB storage variants. It'a also likely to sport an 8-megapixel rear camera and a 1.2-megapixel front facing camera camera and run iOS 7 complete with Siri which would be available in English, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Italian and Spanish.
