Be Cautious While Turning At New Avadi Road

The signal at New Avadi Road, near ICF Hospital has vehicles moving at all directions. Motorists are advised to be cautious while driving along New Avadi Road. 

The traffic signal is  followed only when there is a police man on duty. Vehicles move and skip the signal most of the time.

 Motorists freely take left turn into New Avadi Road from ICF which is a dangerous practice. 

This is a risk for the pedestrians crossing the road. The ICF Hospital road stretch connecting New Avadi Road with Konnur High Road has heavy flow of vehicle movement. 

There is absolute chaos during peak traffic hours at the intersection. During the peak hours, it is an exasperating experience to negotiate this stretch. The jam holds up traffic moving towards Ambattur,  Anna Nagar and Kilpauk.

Edible mushrooms are the fleshy and edible fruit bodies of several species. Edible mushrooms are consumed by humans for their nutritional and occasionally medicinal value as comestibles. Mushrooms consumed for health reasons are known as medicinal mushrooms. 

 

Edible mushrooms include many either harvested wild or cultivated. Easily cultivatable and common wild mushrooms are often available in markets, and those that are more difficult to obtain (such as the prized truffle and matsutake) may be collected on a smaller scale by private gatherers. Some preparations may render certain poisonous mushrooms fit for consumption.

 Before assuming that any wild mushroom is edible, it should be identified. Proper identification of a species is the only safe way to ensure edibility. A mushroom is the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body, typically produced above ground on soil or on its food source. 

The standard for the name "mushroom" is the cultivated white button mushroom.
