İşlenmemiş tuzlar, rafine zeytinyağları, tatlınızın şerbeti için kullanacağınız bal…  Ünlülerin beslenme danışmanı Marc Decker; lezzetten ödün vermeden nasıl sağlıklı beslenebileceğinizin ipuçlarını veriyor.

 Decker, öncelikle besinleri seçerken ve hazırlarken nelere dikkat etmemiz gerektiğini anlattı, daha sonra
pişirme aşamasında bilmemiz gerekenleri...

1. BESİNLERİ HAZIRLARKEN

l Çiğ ama leziz
Mümkün olduğu kadar doğal ve organik yetiştirilmiş besinleri tüketmeye çalışın. Beslenmemizin büyük çoğunluğunu; sebzelerden, meyvelerden, işlenmemiş undan yapılan besinlerden, patatesten, bakliyattan, süt ve süt ürünlerinden, az miktar yumurtadan, balık ve etten, eğer uygunsa organik kalitede besinlerden karşılamalıyız. Yediğiniz yemeklerin ve beslenme şeklinizin büyük bir kısmını da pişmemiş besinler oluşturmalı.
l En ballı tatlı
Tatlı hazırlarken işlenmiş şeker kullanmayın. İçeriği doğal olan tatlandırıcılar; bal, pekmez ya da doğal şuruplar mesela; sabır otu nektarı ya da üzüm şurubunu tercih etmek çok daha sağlıklı. Eğer bunlara ulaşmak size çok pahalıya mal olacaksa Türkiye'de kolaylıkla bulabileceğiniz pekmez ve bal işinizi görecektir. Ama tercihiniz asla yapay tatlandırıcılar olmasın. Ve son bir not daha; tatlı ihtiyacı için daha çok taze ve kurutulmuş meyve yiyin.
l Ekmeğiniz doğal olsun
Ekmekte ve hamur işlerinde sağlıklı olduğunu düşünerek işlenmiş kepekli un kullanmayın. Daha çok tam buğday, tam çavdar unu kullanmaya çalışın. Bu çeşit işlenmemiş unların besin değeri yüksek, içerdiği mineral ve vitamin açısından zengindir. Ayrıca üretildiği bitkiler vücut için ikincil derecede gerekli faydalı bakteriler taşır. Kepekli un ise, işlenmiş un ve kepek karışımından oluşur. Bu, doğal olmadığı gibi besin değeri de işlenmemiş unlar kadar yüksek değildir. İşlenmemiş unlardan da canınızın çektiği her türlü şeyi yapabilirsiniz. Ekmek pişirebilir, börek, erişte, pizza, tiramisu ve hatta cheesecake bile yapabilirsiniz!
l Dalından sofraya
Yemeklerinizde mümkün olduğunca işlenmiş sıvı yağ ya da katı yağ kullanmamaya çalışın. Çünkü bu yağlar üretimleri sırasında kimyasal işlemlere tabi tutuluyor ve aşırı derecede ısıtıldıkları için besin değerlerinin büyük çoğunluğunu kaybediyorlar. Tavsiyem sadece doğal ve soğuk presleme tekniğiyle üretilen yağları kullanmanız çünkü bu yağların besin değerleri yüksek, mineral ve vitamin bakımından zengin ayrıca yararlı bitki özleri (klorofil, antioksidan madde) içeriyor. Aynı zamanda daha lezzetli ve bize zengin tatlar sunuyorlar. Bu tarz ürünlerin kalp krizinden ve kanser tehlikesinden uzakta kalmamızı sağladığı da biliniyor.

2. PİŞİRİRKEN

l Sağlıklı çorbalar için...
Çorba pişirirken genellikle ilk yapılan iş soğanların kavrulması oluyor. Üstelik bunun için çok miktarda sıvı yağ ya da tereyağı kullanılıyor. Ardından diğer malzemeler ve neredeyse ağzına kadar çorbanın ana malzemesi dolduruluyor. Oysa soğanları yağda kavurarak başlamayıp, onları teflon bir tavada yağsız bir şekilde çevirerek ya da fırın torbasına koyarak veya silikon bir kapta açık kahverengileşinceye kadar bekletmek çok daha sağlıklı. Ayrıca çorba hazırlarken  hazır bulyonlar kullanmamalı, kemik suyu ya sebze gibi doğal malzemeleri tercih etmelisiniz.
l Yağı az ama lezzetli yemekler için...
Yemeklere lezzet katmak için mutlaka katı yağlara ihtiyacınız olduğunu düşünebilirsiniz, fakat sağlığınızı da düşünüyorsanız sıvı yağları seçmelisiniz. Çünkü katı yağlar doğal lezzetlerden ve pek çok sağlıklı besin maddesinden yoksundur. Sıvı yağları yemeğin sonunda ekleyerek hem lezzetlerinden hem de besin değerlerinden faydalanabilirsiniz.
l Bol vitaminli sebze yemekleri için...
Sebzeleri pişirmenin en sağlıklı yolu onları buharda haşlamaktan geçiyor. Bu sayede besin değerleri de önemli ölçüde korunmuş oluyor. Sebzeleri, özel düdüklü tencerelerde veya buhar kaplarında haşlayabilirsiniz. Ya da süzgeç düzenekli bir kapta (piyasada satılan ve üzerinde ayarlanabilir süzgeçler bulunan buharlı aletler) ve kapağı sıkıca kapalı bir şekilde tutarak hazırlayabilirsiniz.
l Gaz yapmayan baklagil yemekleri için..
Baklagilleri pişirmek için aslında onları uzun süre suda tutmanıza gerek yok. Pişirme sürecini hızlandırmak için biraz karbonat ekleyebilirsiniz, ancak dikkatli olun, karbonatı fazla kaçırırsanız yemeğinizin üzerinde köpükler oluşabilir. Gaz sorununu engellemek için de, yemeğe bol baharat ekleyebilirsiniz; özellikle kimyon, kekik, rezene tohumu, anason bağırsaklarınızdaki gaz sıkışmalarını ve bundan kaynaklanacak rahatsızlıkları engelleyecektir.
l Hafif ve sağlıklı et yemekleri için...
Türk toplumu olarak mangalda pişirilen etleri yemeyi fazlasıyla seviyoruz. Ancak bunlar genellikle yüksek ısılarda ve ateşle doğrudan temas halinde piştikleri için yapıları bozularak sağlıksız bir hal alıyorlar. Ayrıca bu etler pişirme veya kızartma esnasında gıdalarda kendiliğinden ortaya çıkan tehlikeli bir kimyasal olan "akrilamide" maruz kalıyor. Bu nedenle etlerinizi daha sıklıkla aşağıdaki yöntemle pişirmeye çalışın:
Pişireceğiniz eti 30 dakika önce buzdolabından çıkarın.

(et buzluktaysa süre 1 saat olmalı). Ardından kızartma tavasına ya da ızgaraya eti yerleştirin ve her iki tarafını da kaliteli bir sıvı yağ, örneğin; saf tereyağı, ayçiçek veya fındık yağıyla pişirin.

Yemekleri pişirirken en önemli noktalardan biri de yağ tercihiniz...  Özellikle soğuk presleme yöntemiyle elde edilen sıvı yağları tercih etmelisiniz.

Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance regulation has proved to be one of the biggest operational challenges banks, accountants, lawyers and similar financial service providers worldwide have had to overcome.

World-Check, the industry standard KYC compliance solution, provides an overview of KYC compliance and its origins, and outlines the compliance mandate as applicable to banks, accounting firms, lawyers and other regulated financial service providers – not just in the UK, Europe and the USA, but all around the world. Relied upon by more than 3,000 institutions worldwide, this KYC database solution provides effective legal and reputational risk reduction.

Why “Know Your Customer?”


The 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre revealed that there were sinister forces at work around the world, and that terrorists activities were being funded with laundered money, the proceeds of illicit activities such as narcotics and human trafficking, fraud and organised crime. Overnight, the combating of terrorist financing became a priority on the international agenda.

For the financial services provider of the 21st century, “knowing your customers” was no longer a suggested course of action. Based on the requirements of legislative landmarks such as the USA PATRIOT Act 2002, modern Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance mandates were created to simultaneously combat money laundering and the funding of terrorist activities.

What is Know Your Customer (KYC)?


Know Your Customer, or KYC, refers to the regulatory compliance mandate imposed on financial service providers to implement a Customer Identification Programme and perform due diligence checks before doing business with a person or entity.

KYC fulfils a risk mitigation function, and one its key requirements is checking that a prospective customer is not listed on any government lists for wanted money launders, known fraudsters or terrorists.

If preliminary KYC checks reveal that the person is a Politically Exposed Person (PEP), for example, Advanced Due Diligence must be done in order to ensure that the person’s source of wealth is transparent, and that he or she does not pose a reputational or financial risk in terms of their finances, public positions or associations. Beyond customer identification checks, the ongoing monitoring of transfers and financial transactions against a range of risk variables forms an integral part of the KYC compliance mandate.

But to understand the importance of KYC compliance for financial service providers better, its origins need to be examined.

Origins of Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance


The arrival of the new millennium was marred by a spate of terrorist attacks and corporate scandals that unmasked the darker features of globalisation. These events highlighted the role of money laundering in cross-border crime and terrorism, and underlined the need to clamp down on the exploitation of financial systems worldwide.

Know Your Customer (KYC) legislation was principally not absent prior to 9/11. Regulated financial service providers for a long time have been required to conduct due diligence and customer identification checks in order to mitigate their own operation risks, and to ensure a consistent and acceptable level of service.

In essence, the USA PATRIOT Act was not so much a radical departure from prior legislation as it was a firmer and more extensive articulation of existing laws. The Act would lead to the more rigorous regulation of a greater range of financial services providers, and expanded the authority of American law enforcement agencies in the fighting of terrorism, both in the USA and abroad.

In October 2001, President George W. Bush signed off the USA PATRIOT Act, effectively providing federal regulators with a new range of tools and powers for fighting terror financing and money laundering. During July 2002, the US Treasury proceeded to introduce Section 326 of the PATRIOT Act, a clause that removed some key burdens for regulators and added significant enforcement muscle to the Act.

What 9/11 changed, in essence, was the extent to which existing legislation was being implemented. Using the provisions of the earlier anti-terrorism USA Act as a foundation, it included the Financial Anti-Terrorism Act, which allowed for federal jurisdiction over foreign money launders and money laundered through foreign banks. Significantly, it is this anti-terror law that would make the creation of an Anti Money Laundering (AML) programme compulsory for all financial institutions and service providers.

Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act dealt specifically with the identification of new customers (“CIP regulation”), and made extensive provisions in terms of KYC and the methods employed to verify client identities.

In accordance with this piece of updated KYC legislation, federal regulators would hold financial institutions accountable for the effectiveness of their initial customer identification and ongoing KYC screening. Institutions are required to keep detailed records of the steps that were taken to verify prospective clients’ identities.

Although current KYC legislation does not yet demand the exclusion of specific types of foreign-issued identification, it recommends the usage of machine-verifiable identity documents. The ability to notify financial institutions if concerns regarding specific types of identification were to arise, combined with a risk-based approach to KYC, proved to provide a robust mechanism for addressing security concerns.

Effectively, the risk-based approach to customer due diligence grants regulated institutions a certain degree of flexibility to determine the forms of identification they will accept, and under which conditions.

KYC compliance: Implications for banks, lawyers and accounting firms


The KYC compliance mandate, for all its positive outcomes, has burdened companies and organisations with a substantial administrative obligation. Additionally, KYC compliance increasingly entails the creation of auditable proof of due diligence activities, in addition to the need for customer

(AOL Autos) -- At the 2009 Detroit Auto Show, Chrysler, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and MINI showed the world what electric vehicles of the future will look like. And the future of driving looks fun.

Those in the know realize that sometime in the future, the vast majority of light cars and trucks in the US will feature electric final drive systems.

The motors used in these systems will be powered by batteries, fuel cells, on-board generators, and perhaps even the sun ... but this open issue doesn't change the inevitably of this reality.

Given our current economic times, reality demands practical, tangible, and achievable ideas of what electric vehicles (or "EVs" for short) might actually look like. This is it...

Chrysler

Three of the four electric vehicles Chrysler showed in Detroit, Michigan, were shown at other events and even to Washington bureaucrats. Each of these vehicles is a running prototype, not some pie-in-the-sky-we'll-never-build that idea.

ENVI is the special group of engineers at Chrysler that develops the company's EVs. To date, the ENVI group has developed four electrically powered models, each quite different from the other: a Dodge Circuit EV sports car (rear-wheel drive), a Chrysler Town & Country minivan (front-wheel-drive), a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (all-wheel-drive), and now a Jeep Patriot (front-wheel-drive).

Chrysler promises to offer at least one of these models in 2010, and three more by 2013. AOL Autos: Dodge Circuit EV photos

Chrysler approaches electric vehicles with simple plug-and-play engineering. Every one of their vehicles uses similar electric drive motors (only varying in power output), advanced lithium-ion batteries, and a power management controller. Each plugs in to 110- or 220-volt household outlets for recharging.

The Chrysler and both Jeeps use an on-board range-extending battery charger (a generator). This generator automatically turns on after the vehicle's initial batter charge has been spent (usually within a range of 40 miles), supplying extra voltage that give these three vehicles an estimated range of approximately 400 miles. The generator is powered by a small gasoline-powered engine that runs with exceptional efficiency.

This technology is similar in concept to what General Motors has shown in their Chevrolet Volt, a vehicle that should be ready for production in 2010. AOL Autos: Cadillac Converj photos

The Dodge Circuit carries a larger battery pack and no generator, so its range on the charge it carries is approximately 150-200 miles. Its large battery pack combined with compact dimensions and the exceptional torque provided by its electric motor blast the car from zero-to-sixty mph in around four seconds ... exceptionally fast for any sports car regardless of engine type.

Mercedes-Benz

Mercedes-Benz used the 2009 Detroit Auto Show to showcase their Concept BlueZERO vehicles. The Mercedes approach was to develop one efficient body style, and then equip it with three different electric drive packages. AOL Autos: Mercedes Stirling Moss photos

Much of the hardware for the all-electric front-wheel-drive propulsion units is built into what Mercedes calls "sandwich-floor" architecture that the company uses on several production cars. The design helps keep heavy components mounted low on the chassis for better handling, enhanced safety, and maximized interior room.

All three Concept BlueZERO vehicles include electric drive and batteries. The E-Cell uses a large battery pack that is said to deliver a range of 120 miles. The F-Cell utilizes a smaller battery pack, but supplements the vehicle's range with a hydrogen fuel cell. The fuel cell produces electricity to recharge the battery pack that extends cruising range to 240 miles.

The E-Cell Plus, with a range of approximately 360 miles, is the distance champion. The key is the on-board generator powered by tiny 1-liter turbo-charged three-cylinder gasoline engine. The engine and generator are located in the rear of the BlueZERO.

For the record, when you see photos of these cars together, the E-Cell is lime green, the F-Cell is mint green, and the E-Cell Plus is orange.

Toyota

Adding to its line of popular hybrid vehicles in the U.S., Toyota just confirmed plans to add as many as 10 new gas/electric hybrid vehicles in the next few years.

On their way toward that goal, Toyota showed their all-new, third-generation Prius plus the new Lexus HS250H. AOL Autos: 2010 Toyota Prius photos

Important to this story, Toyota also committed to selling a battery powered electric car in 2012 for the U.S. market.

Toyota debuted what their all-electric vehicle might be at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show, and it's an urban commuter called the FT-EV. The little four-seater is based on Toyota's popular iQ, a car that's already a hit in Japan. The good news is that the iQ is a real car, so the FT-EV will not be a glorified golf cart or a neighborhood vehicle with severely limited capabilities. The claimed range for the FT-EV is 50 miles.

As we went to press, details were still sketchy about the FT-EV's running gear. As Toyota releases more details, we'll bring them to you.

Mini

While standard MINI models like the Cooper are comparatively easy on gas compared to larger cars, under the ownership of parent company BMW, MINI is testing the limits of how green a MINI can be. AOL Autos: 2010 BMW Z4 photos

Perhaps following the performance of the stunt cars used in The Italian Job (2003), BMW decided to investigate a battery-powered MINI. They introduced the MINI E coupe last November at the Los Angeles Auto Show and the car was on display again in Detroit.

The "charged" MINI E can run up to 150 miles on a full battery pack. Charging is accomplished through standard 110- or 220-volt outlets. The electrified MINI weighs 600 pounds more than a standard MINI Cooper and because of the bulk of the required battery pack, the interior seats only two. Performance from the 204-horsepower motor equals the gas-powered MINI, with a 0-60 mph run in 8.5 seconds.

BMW will produce only 500 MINI Es for the United States (if it were easy to make electric MINIs, they'd make more). The limited-production run will be split between New York and L.A. on one-year closed-end leases. After the leases expire, BMW will ship the MINIs back to Germany for evaluation. This scenario mimics what General Motors did with their EV1 electric vehicle about a decade ago.
