    The first recorded evidence of chocolate as a food product goes back to Pre-Columbian Mexico. The Mayans and Aztecs were known to make a drink called "Xocoatll” from the beans of the cocoa tree. The Ancients believed that chocolate was the food of the gods. Aztec and Mayan kings drank cups of warm chocolate on a regular basis, and the magical cacao bean was so valued that the used it for currency. In 1528, the conquering Spaniards returned to Spain with chocolate still consumed as a beverage. A similar chocolate drink was brought to a royal wedding in France in 1615, and England welcomed chocolate in 1662. To this point "chocolate" as we spell it today, had been spelled variously as "chocalatall, "jocolatte", "jacolatte", and "chockelet.”…

    Entering college or university is a major pivotal change in a student 's life. It is during this transition that the student may or may not continue to live at the student 's residence but instead, live in a dormitory or condominium. This change will create an effect on the student 's eating habits due to the student 's "independence". The study aimed to find out if gender, living situation and frequency of exposure to fast-food advertisements will affect the eating habits of students. The study used a quantitative and qualitative method on 400 De La Salle University students, who were categorized according to their gender and living situation. A scale and questionnaire were used to arrive to more reliable, valid and objective results. The results provided evidence that gender and living situation have an influence on the eating habits of students regardless of the frequency of exposure the students have to fast-food television advertisements. Males (M=4.57) have a higher tendency of consuming fast-food compared to females (M=3.83). Moreover, results also show that students who live in dormitories and condominiums (M=5.25) frequently consume fast-food more than those who live at home (M=3.15). Meanwhile, the relationship between frequency of exposure to fast-food TV advertisements and actual consumption of fast-food can be said to be somehow vague and indistinguishable. Overall, it can be concluded that fast-food television ads have an effect on the eating habits of De La Salle University-Manila students.…

    The Old Playhouse- A critical appreciation Kamala Das is once again occupied with herself. Her quest for a fulfilling relationship brings a loi of pain and disenchantment. She complains against her men's incapability to offer anything but lust. These volumes reflect the poet's growing interest in the spiritual and the mythical longings. Kamala Das in her poem 'The Old Play House' looks into the nature of lust and disillusionment. In this context, she explores the male personality as well as her own anguished self. It is the psychology of her inner self, which gets its focus in her poems. Love is the slice of life for Kamala Das. She seems to be obsessed with the idea that feminine self is a mere toy in the unfeeling hands of the male. Her ego-self has declared man nothing more than a beast. She wants integrity between her physical as well as her inner self. She did not come to her husband's house to lye only beneath his 'boneless-self to feed his 'monstrous ego'.…
