Many species of Garcinia have fruit with edible arils, but most are eaten locally; some species' fruits are highly esteemed in one region, but unknown just a few hundred kilometres away. The best-known species is the purple mangosteen (G. mangostana), which is now cultivated throughout Southeast Asia and other tropical countries, having become established in the late 20th century. Less well-known, but still of international importance, are kandis (G. forbesii) with small round red fruits with subacid taste and melting flesh, the lemon drop mangosteen (G. intermedia) with yellow fruit that look like a wrinkled lemon, and the thin-skinned orange button mangosteen (G. prainiana). In addition, mangosteen rind (exocarp) extract is used as a spice. It figures prominently in Kodava culture, and G. multiflora is used to flavour and colour the famous b��n ri��u soup of Vietnam, where this plant is known as h���t ��i���u m��u. Gambooge (G. gummi-gutta) yields a spice widely used in South Asia, in particular in Kerala, where it is called kodumpulli. Most species in Garcinia are known for their gum resin, brownish-yellow from xanthonoids such as mangostin, and used as purgative or cathartic, but most frequently ��� at least in former times ��� as a pigment. The colour term "gamboge" references the gambooge, whose obsolete scientific name is G. cambogia. Hydroxycitric acid, a toxic appetite suppressant found in mangosteen rind Extracts of the exocarp of certain species ��� typically gambooge, but also purple mangosteen ��� are often contained in appetite suppressants such as Hydroxycut, Leptoprin or XanGo. But their effectiveness at normal consumption levels is unproven, while at least one case of severe acidosis caused by long-term consumption of such products has been documented.[3] Furthermore, they may contain significant amounts of hydroxycitric acid, which is somewhat toxic and might even destroy the testicles after prolonged use.[4] Fruit extracts from bitter kola (G. kola) have been claimed to be effective at stopping Ebola virus replication in laboratory tests[citation needed]; its seeds are used in folk medicine. G. mannii is popular as a chew stick in western Africa,[5] freshening the breath and cleaning the teeth.
he first time, he turned pale.When the time came, neither mom nor son hesitated.My first reaction was [to wonder] if that was my mom or not, and then I saw her eyes, Niko said. I thought, Thank God. Im going to finally get out of here. Im going to be free.These days, Niko is preparing to be home-schooled soon and begin his long reintegration process. He hopes to one day play football on his junior high school team and is grateful to be back in America. His mother is happy, too, though there is the constant fear that Mohamed Atteya will again appear in their lives, tracking down his son and trying once again to drag the boy back to Egypt and force him to live as a strict Muslim.My son told me [it was] to make him a Muslim, Atteya replied when asked why she thought her ex-husband snatched the boy. He said that we lack the morality and the values that their system has. And he said that Americans were so violent, he said we are a rotting society.- Kalliopi 'Kalli' AtteyaKalli Atteya's fears are stoked by the vivid memory of the downward spiral of their marriage that culminated in the cruel betrayal that almost cost her her son.It was in 1999 when Kalliopi "Kalli" Panagos fell hard for Mohamed Atteya. Within a year, they married and moved to nearby Chambersburg. But trouble began shortly after Nikos birth in July of 2000.Three months after our boy was born, he left, Kalli Atteya told FoxNews.com. He moved back to Harrisburg, and he dated
ans while toppling the World Trade Center's twin towers and crippling the Pentagon.Brinkley lauded the series of speeches and impromptu remarks that Bush gave in the days immediately following 9/11, including the memorable moment when he used a bullhorn and, standing with a New York City firefighter amid the rubble of the twin towers, declared that the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon." During that period, Bush earned the gratitude of all Americans, including those opposed to him politically, Brinkley said.I think that because 9/11 is such a defining moment in our lives -- like Pearl Harbor or the Kennedy assassination -- people will start remembering 9/11, Brinkley told Fox News. George W. Bush, in my opinion, did a pretty good job of uniting the country in those weeks of dire need. He communicated well; the government functioned."Brinkley noted the creation of the Department of Homeland Security and specific security enhancements at Americas airports."And we did not get hit again. We werent struck again after 9/11," Brinkley said. "He did the best he could.Bush's legacy, however, also will be inextricably tied to the still-evolving fates of the countries he ordered American troops to invade in the aftermath of 9/11: Afghanistan and Iraq. The president, as well as aides like Condoleezza Rice, cautioned repeatedly during his two terms that the verdict on the success of those massive, multifaceted undertak
