			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.diarydot.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/shiny_ahuja_02-161x300.jpg" alt="shiny_ahuja_02" title="shiny_ahuja_02" width="161" height="300" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-88" />Since the last couple of days, the media is swarmed by the reports and crtical analysis whether the bollywood actor Shiney Ahuja has raped his maid when his wife and one year old daughter were away. Whether this is true or not will be decided after the DNA tests, but one thing is for sure, the actor&#8217;s reputation has gone down the drain. Everything as of now is in favor of the hapless maid who has been supposedly raped. </p>
<p>Shiney&#8217;s wife Anupam had called a press conference yesterday and vehemently supported her husband. She rubbished all the claims by the maid and said her husband was one thousand percent innocent. Well that only time will tell. But she has raised a very sensitive issue that rape can be done by a woman too and every time the man should not be put to fault. </p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know why but somehow I am finding that there is more to the case that meets the eyes. According to the media reports, Shiney was found relaxing in his house watching TV when they reached his Oshiwara house. If he had done such heinous crime would he be so complacently sitting at his residence? I understand that every law of the land is in favor of the maid, but if Shiney is not at fault, all this brouhaha is simply ruining his family&#8217;s life. </p>
<p>In the past, there have been many instances in the bollywood and hollywood when a happily married man has fallen for the nanny or the maid. David Beckam&#8217;s affair with Rebecca Loos comes to mind. Then closer home, who can forget Madhur Bhandarkar&#8217;s affair with Preeti Jain.</p>
<p>However, it would be better for the media to avoid mud slinging at the actor at this point of time. He is innocent till there is sufficient evidence to prove his crime. It is better to just wait and watch till the DNA report comes in. If Shiney is found guilty, then the media and the Internet can very well say what they like. In fact, I intend to  post again after the reports come in. Hope truth prevails!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.diarydot.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/foam.jpg" alt="foam" title="foam" width="115" height="109" class="alignright size-full wp-image-85" />The memory foam originated in late 1970s as it was thought to be a good material for space flight seats. The astronauts have to endure very high gravitational forces and NASA scientists were looking out for something that could provide enough cushioning and protect their bodies by spreading the force over a large surface area. Though this foam could never be used in space programs, this excellent technology was sold to a mattress manufacturer for home use. Since then the memory foam popularity is increasing by leaps and bounds.</p>
<p>Memory foam, or Visco elastic foam as it is technically called, is very effective in the medical field as it reduces the pressure points. This quality ensures that people who are bed ridden do not develop bed sores. This kind of mattress is also relatively inexpensive and thus very cost effective. Another positive factor is its durability. A normal spring mattress lasts for 4-5 years. However, memory foam lasts for 15-20 years. Memory foam is also affected by temperature; hence it is a wonderful way to provide rest to your pressure points. Those parts of the body which rest heavily on the foam transfer more heat. Therefore, the mattress becomes softer right where it is required most. Hence one thing is for sure, if you decide to buy memory foam, it will change your life for the better.</p>
