UPS Apple wellness film show The Beatles' 'Let It Be' docuseries makes a comeback after 54 years
Peter Jackson's sprawling and vibrant Beatles docuseries, «The Beatles: Get Back,» streamed on Disney+ to nearly universal acclaim. The three-part epic, which ran nearly eight hours, captured the drama and frenzy as John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr recorded, over the pressure-filled month of January 1969, what would become the last album that the Beatles released, "Let It Be." As fans were well aware, Jackson's series was culled from nearly 60 hours of behind-the-scenes footage originally shot by the director Michael Lindsay-Hogg for «Let It Be,» his little-seen, though often dismissed, 1970 documentary about those recording sessions. After its initial theatrical run, Lindsay-Hogg's film largely disappeared for more than a half-century with the exception of low-quality VHS versions and bootlegs. Fans tend to remember it as an intriguing historical document capturing the late-stage creative flights of a seismic musical force, but also as a divorce proceeding of sorts, with stark moments of internal discord as the band hurtled toward a nasty split.

Citi Booking Food community Trade show Rediscovering Mangalore's culinary heritage: The legacy of Balthu chutney
Balthu Chutney’s story was probably first documented in print in the Mangalore Magazine, published by St Aloysius College (established 1880). Starting in the June 1899 issue and written in first person, it described how Balthu, or Balthasar, a young Christian from near Mangalore, made his way to Chennapatnam (Madras), where he became a cook for the Jesuits. It was an era when Hyder Ali had become the dominant power in South India. The Jesuits were taken to his camp, where they were produced before his 17-year-old son Tipu (which would date this to 1768). By chance on that day, the only food available for the sultan and his son was a basic pilau. Balthu quickly made a chutney that was so tasty that they commended him. Balthu said that he could make a vast variety of chutneys and was ready to serve the royal family. Despite being a practising Catholic, “I was there and then named royal chutney manufacturer.” He was later able to use this privileged position to help the around 60,000 Mangalore Catholics who were taken prisoner to Seringapatam in 1784 for their alleged treachery in supporting the British.

markets UPS Aware Action Food Nestle Courts FMCG companies: Buyers aware, sellers beware
FMCG companies navigate the inflation challenge, innovate to stay ahead of the competition and adopt an omni-channel approach to reach more buyers, they have a looming risk which they need to address. Increasingly, FMCG products are coming under buyer and regulatory scrutiny. Recently, Nestle India's shares plummeted by up to 5.4%, reaching a day’s low of Rs 2,409.55 on the BSE. This significant drop followed the revelation that the multinational FMCG giant adds sugar to baby food products sold in India, a practice not followed in Europe and the UK. This is the second time in the last nine years that Nestle India has come under the spotlight for quality issues. In 2015, its instant noodles brand Maggi was under the scanner after excess lead and MSG were found in some samples collected from Uttar Pradesh. While stock meltdown and regulatory action are short-term risks, losing consumer trust is a long-term and bigger risk for an FMCG company. Laterly, a number of cases have come up where individuals and governments have brought FMCG products under the spotlight. What a spate of incidents tells
