Afghanistan and Pakistan agree key trade agreement :
"Afghanistan and Pakistan have signed a key trade agreement allowing Afghan lorries to use a land route through Pakistan to carry goods to India.
The deal also gives landlocked Afghanistan access to Pakistani ports to boost its trade with other nations."
But "ndia's long-standing demand for allowing Afghanistan-bound Indian goods to transit through Pakistan through Wagah has been rejected once again. As per the contours of the understanding reached between Afghanistan and Pakistan on Sunday evening for transit trade, Afghanistan can export into India via Wagah but cannot import through the same route." according to The Hindu http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/article522256.ece?homepage=true

Turmeric, a recipe for trouble too?:
"Contrary to conventional wisdom about the rhizome, the main molecular component in turmeric, curcumin, actually boosts up certain pathogens such as the typhoid bacteria to fight off the body's defence mechanism, says a research paper published in the latest edition of PLoS ONE, a scientific journal published by the U.S. Public Library of Science."
