Separation of 1,270 sq km chunk of frozen water is the&nbsp;third major chasm to actively tear across the Brunt Ice Shelf in the last decade.&nbsp;
'Over the coming weeks or months, the iceberg may move away; or it could run aground and remain close to Brunt Ice Shelf,' said the BAS&nbsp;Director.&nbsp;

Additionally, the iconic bear species is now using four times more energy to survive because of major ice loss in the Arctic, found a separate study.&nbsp;
As global warming rises, the already endangered species with a global population of up to 30,000, faces an uncertain future.&nbsp;

Collins Aerospace in Charlotte, North Carolina is celebrating its 20th anniversary of supporting Introduce a Girl to Engineering day, hosting more than 55 events in 13 countries.

Consuming a diet high in poor quality carbohydrates has many ill effects ranging from a higher risk of heart attacks to strokes, and even death finds a new study.&nbsp;
The global study discovered that higher risks of a diet high in poor quality carbs, called a high glycemic diet, were similar in both people who had previous cardiovascular disease and people who did not. White bread, rice, and potatoes have a high glycemic index.
In contrast, diets rich in high-quality carbohydrates such as fruit, vegetables, and legumes have beneficial effects, researchers noted publishing their findings in the&nbsp;New England Journal of Medicine.

Indians are at the forefront when it comes to being the most overworked but earn some of the lowest statutory wages in the&nbsp;world, finds a report by the International Labour Organization (ILO).
With long working hours, often stretching up to 48 hours a week or more, India ranks fifth in the ranking behind&nbsp;Gambia, Mongolia, Maldives and Qatar.
In contrast, an average worker works 36 hours in the United Kingdom and 37 hours in the United States in a week.
What's worse, the report finds that Indians spend less than one-tenth of time in a day for leisure, and women get far less time than men for leisure.

The livelihoods and food security of hundreds of millions of people in India stand threatened from&nbsp;overexploitation of vital water supplies, finds a new study published in the journal Science Advances.&nbsp;
The authors say groundwater,&nbsp;a critical resource for food security,&nbsp;makes up&nbsp;40% of the country's water supply&nbsp;has been steadily depleting for years. Over-extraction by way of tube wells has left "critically low groundwater availability" in the country's northwest and south, according to the research.

A great workout not only takes you closer to your fitness goal but also helps you feel mentally and physically stronger. But you must remember, that a good workout doesn't end at the gym. What you eat after a workout is as important as what you eat before it. The right kind of food will help your body recover faster, build muscle and prepare your for the next workout.
When you work out, muscles use up glycogen energy stores, even muscle proteins may get damaged, therefore a combination of vitamins, minerals, fats, proteins and carbohydrates is needed by the body.
Lets begin with hydration. If you want your body set for the next day's performance, you need to ensure you're well hydrated. Experts suggest keeping an eye on the colour of your urine to determine the level of hydration. Drinking water as per the intensity of your workout is important, because you have to replenish what you lose in the form of sweat.
Here's what your meal should include post an intensive workout. You have to choose foods which are easy to digest, to amplify absorption of nutrients.
#1 Protein Exercise often leads to the breakdown of muscle proteins, so it is extremely important to consume a good amount of protein. This helps your body get the amino acids required to repair and rebuild these lost proteins. Your meal can comprise of eggs, chicken, quinoa, cottage cheese or greek yoghurt.
# Carbohydrates Including carbs in your post workout meal will help restore the lost glycogen stores which your body uses up as fuel. You can include sweet potatoes, wholegrain pasta, rice or oats.
# Good Fats While you may have set a goal to burn fat, eating fats after your workout is also important. The key lies in not over-eating. You can include a mixture of seeds, walnuts, nut butters or fatty fish.
