White’ grapes are actually green in colour, and are evolutionarily derived from the red grape. Mutations in two regulatory genes of white grapes turn off production of anthocyanins, which are responsible for the colour of red grapes. The many health benefits of grapes make them an excellent choice for a more satisfying, healthier diet. Fruit is an essential part of your daily diet supplying essential vitamins and minerals that contribute to overall good health.

Photo © Daniela Serra 2016 – All Rights Reserved- .Among its wonders, Sardinia (Italy) offers the visitor the Nuragic complexes scattered all over the territory. These monuments are unique to the world, testifying to an ancient culture that – though it endured from the 16th to 15th Centuries B.C. still rains rather mysterious. The Nuragic constructions were built using great blocks of stone and developed around a central cone-shaped tower that communicates strength and power. These are archaeological sites where it is possible to grasp the archaic charm of ancient rituals and domestic life.The nuraghe Arrubiu rises on a basaltic plateau in the Sarcidano plain,in the territory of Orroli, dominating the Flumendosa river. It was called “the red giant” because is the biggest nuraghe of the island and is characterised by the presence of red lichens. The nuraghe Arrubiu, which dates back to the 14th century BC, was abandoned in the 10th- 8th century BC because of the destruction of the upper part of the bastion.http://www.italia.it/en/discover-italy/sardinia.html(Source Wikipedia)

#Cats have some of the most unique eyes in the animal world. Instead of having circular pupils like humans, the black parts in the centres of their eyes are vertical which can adapt quickly and can open and close like the aperture of a camera. Pupil shape and size determines how much light gets to the eyes and is then translated by the brain into a picture of the world around us. When it’s dark out, pupils expand to let in more light and enhance our vision, but when it’s bright out, our pupils get smaller to prevent overstimulation.
