Garlic
Although garlic may not always bring good luck, protect against evil or ward off vampires, it is guaranteed to transform any meal into a bold, aromatic and healthy culinary experience.
Fresh, dried and powdered garlic are available in markets throughout the year, however, fresh varieties from California are in season from June through December.
Garlic is arranged in a head, called the bulb, averaging about 2 inches in height and diameter consisting of numerous small separate cloves. Both the cloves and the entire bulb are encased in paper-like sheathes that can be white, off-white or pinkish. Although garlic cloves have a firm texture, they can be easily cut or crushed. The taste of garlic is like no other-it hits the palate with a hot pungency that is shadowed by a very subtle background sweetness. While elephant garlic has larger cloves, it is more closely related to the leek and therefore does not offer the full health benefits of regular garlic.

Cranberries
A cousin of the blueberry, this very tart, bright red berry can still be found growing wild as a shrub, but when cultivated, is grown on low trailing vines in great sandy bogs. The American cranberry, the variety most cultivated in the northern United States and southern Canada, produces a larger berry than the wild cranberry or the European variety.
Cranberries have long been valued for their ability to help prevent and treat urinary tract infections. Now, recent studies suggest that this native American berry may also promote gastrointestinal and oral health, prevent the formation of kidney stones, lower LDL and raise HDL good cholesterol, aid in recovery from stroke, and even help prevent cancer.
Fresh cranberries, which contain the highest levels of beneficial nutrients, are at their peak from October through December, just in time to add their festive hue, tart tangy flavor and numerous health protective effects to your holiday meals. When cranberries short fresh season is ...
MECCANICO DG WATCH BY DE GRISOGONO
Introducing the worlds first mechanically powered digital watch
A god among watches, this is possibly the most sophisticated design youll ever wear on your wrist. Born from the imagination of the owner of de Grisogono, Fazwa Gruosi, the Meccanico dG is the worlds first mechanically powered digital watch. Bearing both an analogue display at the top of the dial and digital one at the bottom, this device is solely mechanical.
Clever, right? More than you think: beneath the analogue portion of the two-timezone watch is a numerical display driven by the intricate maze of 651 components. The numbers are then formed by the shifting motion of 23 cams and gears, all confined to a space no larger than the size of a matchbox. The design was released to coincide with the Geneva-based companys 15th birthday, and only 177 were ever produced in a colour selection of titanium, titanium and rubber, titanium and platinum, pink gold and red gold.
Sizing up at 58mm by 48m, this isn a watch for those ...
Indiana Jones 4
Who? Harrison Ford old, Shia LaBeouf greasy, Karen Allen mumsy, Cate Blanchett bobbed, Ray Winstone Ray Winstoney
Background: Close to twenty years, it took. Nearly two full decades, apparently, to perfect a script. To gather its peerless troupe of main players, to synchronise impossibly busy schedules and to hone a suitably astonishing final chapter to one of the greatest film franchises ever. Then 79 filming days to commit a genuine world cinematic event to celluloid: the fourth Indiana Jones movie. And what do we get? We’ll tell you. CGI gophers with surprised expressions, that’s what. Infantile, clunking dialogue. Green-screen sub-XBox action sequences. Elderly people kissing. The only human being ever to survive a nuclear detonation at point-blank range. Later, CGI monkeys with expressions. And your worst nightmares confirmed – aliens and flying saucers. Yes, it’s worse than you could possibly comprehend. A more stultifying disappointment, arguably, than The Phantom Menace. ...

L Carnitine and Acetyl L Carnitine
L Carnitine and Acetyl L Carnitine improve energy levels by burning fat as fuel. It helps regulate metabolism and reduce and normalize trigylcerides in the blood. It also helps transport long chain fatty acids into the mitochondria providing fuel for energy.
L Carnitine and Acetyl L Carnitine is used to carry activated long chain fatty acids across the inner mitochondrial membrane of the cell. Once inside the cell, the fat can be oxidized and its energy released.
A form of carnitine, which is a substance made in the muscles and liver. It can be given as a supplement to prevent and treat carnitine deficiency in patients who are receiving chemotherapy for cancer or undergoing dialysis for kidney disease. Also called levocarnitine

Porsche Design P9521 mobile phone
After collaborations with fashion designers proved popular this year, Sagem has teamed up with luxury car manufacturer Porsche Design to produce a phone that boasts fingerprint recognition technology, enabling secure access to data and dialing. The P9521 is surprisingly heavy, but perhaps a price worth paying for its sleek black glass and solid aluminium finish. Created to epitomise contemporary design, the square-jawed flip phone has more than a whiff of Eighties style about it. But with a touch screen colour display, MP3 player and a 3.2 mega pixel camera, it’s safe to say this flash phone matches style with substance. But with a hefty price tag of £800, Porsche is likely to burn a hole in your pocket as well as rubber on the track.
