Review provided by OverDrive
Ireland's rich culinary heritage is being rediscovered and the country is fast becoming one of Europe's most exciting food destinations. Irish food has always been thought of as rustic and filling – the kind of stuff to get you through a cold winter – but you will now find a new strand of cooking still based on Ireland's rural heritage but with a modern twist. A new wave of artisanal producers is bringing a superlative range of high-quality raw ingredients to a wider market, from the freshest wild salmon and oysters to award-winning marsh-fed lamb, farmhouse cheeses and black pudding, and delis and department stores around the world are now stocking many of these high-quality ingredients for the first time. Written by accomplished Irish food writer Nuala Cullen, Deliciously Irish takes a new look at traditional Irish fare. Fish and seafood feature largely, as do fresh vegetables and fruit, with delicious suggestions for desserts and cakes. More than a fabulous cookbook Deliciously Irish, is also a photographic record of the landscapes of Ireland, highlighting especially her wild west coast. Come wind, rain, sun, or snow, it is clear from these images that Ireland is one of the most unspoilt countries in Europe. Deliciously Irish presents a taste of its finest food and an equally evocative selection of its beautiful landscape.

Sophia lost her two top front teeth within three days of each other. New look aside, she was most excited about the impending visits by the Tooth Fairy. She didn't seem concerned about whether the Tooth Fairy would make it all the way across the world. In fact, for her, the nighttime gift bringer who takes her tooth is some combination of the American Tooth Fairy and the Spanish Ratoncito Perez (Little Mouse Perez). Last summer she lost her second tooth when we were in Spain and received a visit from Mr. Perez, who left her with a few coins and some lip gloss. Since then, she often sleeps with a stuffed Ratoncito Perez (who carries a stuffed tooth) and talks about both of them (I think she thinks of them in cahoots with one another, a little bit like the companionship in Rise of the Guardians). If it works for her, we're fine keeping it vague.
While she was awake early on two mornings a week ago, eager to show us the small gifts and money she'd received under her pillow (since we are in China, after all, I picked up little hair items, gold nail polish, a wooden comb painted with a Chinese lady, etc.), Manu and I started asking around about what people do with their baby teeth in China. Sophia's Chinese language teacher, who's from Fujian Province, which is the closest Mainland China province to Taiwan, told me that when she lost her lower teeth, she buried them in the ground, while she threw her upper teeth onto the roof of her grandparents' house. This is supposed to ensure that the adult teeth grow straight up/down.
I looked up different Chinese traditions on the internet and found that traditions varied (sometimes the lower teeth are placed on the roof and the upper teeth buried in the ground and sometimes instead of the roof and ground, the teeth are placed above and below the bed), the essential desired outcome is the same: get those big teeth to come in straight.
Since Manu spent last week in Lhasa, he asked around to find out what Tibetans do with their baby teeth. He found that, at least in Central Tibet, they wrap the tooth in a cloth, sometimes keeping it whole and sometimes crushing it, and then throw it on the roof while reciting the following wish:
Don't grow the tooth of a horse; Don't grow the tooth of a donkey; May a tooth of a white sheep grow!
While I don't know a lot about other baby teeth traditions around the world (you can check out an interesting blog post I found that begins to scratch the surface), I'm wondering if at least the Chinese and Tibetans are onto something with the focus on good looking adult teeth. Perhaps it's no wonder, with our short sighted tooth-for-gift exchange, that so many Americans, in particular, end up needing braces!


text: Inn Echo is a contemporary trad band based out of Charlottetown, PEI. Fiddler Karson McKeown, concertina player Gormlaith Maynes, fiddler Tuli Porcher and guitarist Jesse Périard, bring their own style and sound to form a unique blend of traditional Canadian and Irish music, while also incorporating original compositions into their repertoire. Their self titled album, released in June 2019, finds ways of reinventing the traditional genre by use of intricate arrangements and a unique fusion of instrumentation and styles. Inn Echo hopes to captivate audiences both familiar and unfamiliar with traditional music through the use of rhythmic grooves, provoking harmonies and energetic repertoire. Just 9 months after forming Inn Echo, they have already achieved an extensive line-up of summer festival performances to include; The Indian River Festival (PEI), The Festival of Small Halls (PEI), Festival Memoires & Racines(QC) and the All-Ireland Fleadh Cheoil (Ireland).

Best dance if one doesn't listen to lyrics

I gave it some thought and decided I can't do folk dancing here - there is just too much and it deserves its own space. To own up, the song Margarita burst into my brain, and possessed me to find it, and start this collection. So everyone, please forgive me for skipping your great suggestions. I tried really hard to find Tarantella, but only found a great instrumental - another limitation of must have a pretty video... Lol. And why Tarantella and not other folk? Because I wanted to share a fun fact from my wedding...

The old mansion of baronial family Negri extends around the agriturismo, the Court, for 12 hectares from which 8 hectares are organic hazelnuts, surrounded by ancient chestnut and walnut trees, vineyard, orchard and garden.
Around the agriturismo you can lose yourself in the colors and scents of our garden, divided into many corners, even on different floors, full of flowering plants and flowers, from azaleas to hydrangeas, from daisies to geraniums, from jasmine to iris, from agapanthus to aloe.
From our garden arrive directly on the tables of the restaurant, for our customers, genuine products, according to the season: tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, salads, peppers, herbs, pumpkins, broccoli, potatoes and onions.
In the small, ancient vineyard, there is a mix of grapes accumulated over time, from which we draw a small quantity of red wine for those who love the wine as once was made.
In our around 7000 hazelnut plants we cultivate the well-known Giffoni IGP hazelnut, a sweet and round hazelnut of Campania, wherewith we flavor our salt dishes such as risotto with pumpkin, mushrooms and sprinkle of hazelnuts or sweet dishes, such as negrella (caprese cake) or crunchy macaroons.

It takes some work to get it started, but once the engine turns over the darn thing floats like a monarch butterfly.

Ziplines at Pacific Crest/ Pacific Crest Operations, LLC
Zipline Tour Guest Agreement
(Including assumption of risks and release and indemnity of liability)
Please read this document carefully. It must be signed by an adult (18 years of age and older) − guests to the premises of the zipline tour, including participants in the tour itself, trainees, group and individual chaperones and others (any of which is a "Guest"). If a Guest is a minor (under 18 year of age), his or her parent or court appointed, legal guardian (each referred to in this Agreement as "Parent") must sign for himself or herself and on behalf of the minor. In consideration of the services of Pacific Crest Operations, LLC, dba Ziplines at Pacific Crest ("Operator"), I, adult Guest or Parent, for myself and to the maximum extent allowed by law, on behalf of the minor Guest, acknowledge and agree as follows:
DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITIES: This Agreement applies to all aspects of a visit to the premises of the zipline tour, including enrollment, transportation and participation in the zipline tour itself, and related events or services provided, sponsored, authorized or allowed by the Operator (such zipline tour activities sometimes hereinafter referred to as the "zipline tour" or "the tour"). Guests are allowed to move about the premises on which the tour is located and in and around guest buildings and to hike on designated trails, complying with all posted signage and placards and instructions given by the Operator's staff. Guests may be transported to the tour site and elsewhere in vehicles operated by the Operator. Guests may move across uneven and sometimes steep terrain, and climb stairs or ladders or other structures to access high platforms assisted by protective equipment (such as harnesses, lanyards and pulleys) and methods approved by the Operator. They then will traverse from platform to platform by means of high ropes course elements, ziplines , suspension bridges and sky-bridges at heights of up to 350 feet. Guests will descend from platforms by means of a rappel controlled by them or a device allowing a free fall and a mechanical lowering.
DESCRIPTION OF RISKS: The zipline tour is an inherently dangerous activity. The property on which the zipline tour is located is remote mountainous area, and includes rocky, steep and wooded terrain, very dry and loose dirt footing, cliffs, ravines, and creek beds which may be home to potentially harmful plants and animals, including but not limited to snakes, bears, ticks, and poisonous plants. The zipline tour operates at significant heights in trees and stands, and the structures and personal protective equipment, including but not limited to harnesses, lanyards, trolleys, pulleys, ascension devices, belay devices and lowering devices, may fail. Other guests and Operator staff may act carelessly, including by failure to adequately secure safety equipment. Environmental conditions, including weather, may cause illness and injury. The activities of the zipline, moving about its premises and transportation to, from and upon the premises will expose guests to injury risks such as falls, collision with other persons and fixed objects, scrapes, bruises, stings, broken bones, sprains, neurological damage, shock, and, in extraordinary cases, death. Circumstances may cause emotional upset, including hurt feelings, panic, or other psychological trauma. Medical care may be delayed for many hours.
RISKS OF EXPOSURE: The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is a worldwide risk to human health. COVID-19 is highly contagious and has a mortality rate many times greater than the flu. COVID-19 can spread easily and exponentially.
You agree and understand that it is your responsibility to exercise care to protect yourself, such as assessing your own risks, which may include age, underlying health conditions, recent travel, possible exposure to COVID-19, doctor's recommendations, local, and State and Federal recommendations.
By signing below, you are declaring the foregoing is true, that you agree to take all recommended and reasonable actions to protect yourself and others from exposure to COVID-19, and that you assume the risk, as applicable, of participating in all aspects of the tour. You understand and agree that no one, including but not limited to tour guides and management, can guarantee that you will not be exposed to or contract COVID-19.Other risks will be encountered and injuries may occur in spite of efforts taken by the Operator's staff to prevent them. The risks described above, and others, are inherent in a visit to the zipline tour and cannot be eliminated without changing the nature of the activities and the value and appeal of the visit.
ASSUMPTION OF RISKS: I, an adult Guest, am knowingly and willingly choosing to participate in the activities of the Operator, including those described above, and including transportation and moving about the premises of the Operator. I acknowledge and voluntarily assume ALL the risks of my visit, inherent and otherwise, whether or not they are described above. If the Guest is a minor, I, Parent, have discussed the activities and risks with him or her, and the minor child understands them and wishes to participate in the visit and activities nevertheless, and I consent to such participation.
AGREEMENTS OF RELEASE AND INDEMNITY: I, an adult Guest and/or Parent of a minor Guest (Parent, for myself and, to the maximum extent allowed by law, on behalf of my minor child or ward for whom I sign), hereby agree to release and agree not to sue Ziplines at Pacific Crest/ Pacific Crest Operations, LLC, its members, owners, officers, directors, staff, volunteers and independent contractors, and owners of the property on which the zipline is located ("Released Parties") of and from any and all liability for any loss, damage, expense or injury, including death, that I, or my minor child or ward, may suffer, arising from or in any way related to my (or the minor's) visit to the zipline tour, including transportation, participation in zipline activities and the use of its services, premises, and facilities. I further agree to hold harmless, indemnify, and defend (including to pay court costs and attorneys' fees) the Released Parties and each of them from all liability for any claim, including damage to property or personal injury and death, by whomever it might be brought, including me, my minor child or ward, a member of my or the minor child's family, a co-participant or otherwise, arising from or in any way related to my (or the minor's) visit to the zipline tour, including transportation, participation in zipline activities and the use of its services, premises, and facilities. These agreements of release and indemnity include claims arising from the negligence (but not the gross negligence or intentionally wrong conduct) of a Released Party.
FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND AGREEMENT: I, an adult Guest and/or Parent of a minor Guest (for myself and on behalf of a minor for whom I sign) further acknowledge and agree as follows:
Dated: September 27, 2020

Great item, love the phrase and picture. Print quality is great. There were a few spots where the stitching was not complete along the seam and I had to sew them myself, but easily fixed.
Color is perfect and they look great for the spot I purchased them for.
Very nice quality! The color was exactly as pictured!

Johnny Rockets - Freedom of the Seas
I only go to Johnny Rockets aboard Freedom of the Seas when our daughter is on board. If I went any more often than that, I would have to be taken off the ship as cargo!

Lippert Components unveils next generation Patio Wall Armor system
Elkhart, Ind. — Lippert Components, Inc. (LCI®) has introduced the Patio Wall Armor system to its line of toy hauler products for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). Patio Wall Armor is a three-season patio wall system for toy haulers, designed to enclose and secure the unit's ramp garage patio area.
The Patio Wall Armor system installs at the end of the toy hauler cargo area, adding privacy to the toy hauler's garage space, enclosing and creating additional living space. This second-generation product features interior latches for improved safety and security and to further enhance security and comfort. LCI has added G 20 tempered glass sliding window panels as an option. The system's sliding glass panels are similar to sliding glass panels found on residential screen doors, allowing owners flexibility to either create protection from the elements or to create a fully open space to expose the system's integrated screens, allowing a cool breeze to permeate the room.
Additionally, LCI has added a secondary Z-glide track at the top of the doors. The Z-glide track works in conjunction with the roller bearing glide tracks at the bottom of the doors, promoting a true gliding motion that brings the doors together evenly in the center of the opening every time. The new Patio Wall Armor system also features LCI's patent pending easily removable door system, allowing the end user to remove the doors completely when extra clearance is needed in the garage area.
"The older system served our customers well for a number of years, but with changing times and changing markets, we always gather feedback on all of our existing products for future product improvements. This allows us to bring the best products to market, products that our customers are asking for, and this product was no exception," commented Scott McKinnon, Product Manager at LCI. "Customers wanted a more secure, stronger patio wall system along with the option of the removable doors."
For more information about Patio Wall Armor, contact Scott McKinnon at email@example.com

Slessshh was a 24th century Gorn individual, an warlord and leader of Gorn's Black Crest movement.
In 2374, believing that the political caste was weak, Slessshh led his Black Crest soldiers in a coup against the ruling council to make his people strong once again. He made sure to kill all the council members and the eggs of the political caste. Slesssh then ordered General Khaaarr to launch the Gorn war fleet. He also ordered him to annihilate every Federation outpost in their territory despite their lack of tactical information and knowledge of the Federation. After that, he entered the council chamber to confront the USS Enterprise-E's Captain, Jean-Luc Picard and his away team. Once there he took Captain Picard and his team hostage and killed all the surviving council members. He then ordered Picard to surrender his ship. Slesssh then contacted the Enterprise-E's acting captain, Commander Data, threatening to kill Picard if he did not give into his demands. Commander Data refused to so. When Commander Data beamed down, Slessshh and his people were called weak. Slessshh then agreed to a deal that Picard proposed; if he defeats Data, the Enterprise will surrender, if he loses he would order the fleet to stand down. At first he thought it would be an easy victory. Unfortunately, Slessshh was defeated and he ordered the fleet to stand down. (TNG comic: "The Gorn Crisis")

Your employees need much more from you than a pay check. Just like your customers, they need not only a 'solution' (which in their case is the pay check!) but also 'good feelings'! So HOW can you provide these essential 'good feelings' to your employees?
Industry consultants use a fancy pants phrase called "empowerment through accountability". But since in SFS Training we are a down-in-the-trenches bunch of folks let's cut to the chase with a specific procedure …
Each week, give a different employee responsibility for presenting specific ways to create positive Moments of Truth. Then have that employee present his or her idea at your weekly staff meeting.
This builds on a central premise of SFS which is to involve the people 'closest to the action'. For example, Weight Watchers has what they call a 'Traveling Journal'. Each week someone different from the weight loss group takes it with them and they record every single thing they eat in it and then weigh in at the end of the week.
Maybe a "'Moment of Truth Traveling Journal' might be fun to try to try with your workers. Accountability and employee involvement/awareness always works.
P.S. How do you make your weekly staff meeting interactive? Share your ideas in our Strategies for Success: Growing Your Business Facebook Group. (You don't have to be a SFS graduate to join us!)
P.P.S. One gentle request. Remember that this free QuickTIPS service depends on all our members sharing their Techniques, Ideas, Procedures and Systems. (Cute acronym, huh?) So please, drop us a line at email@example.com or go to our on line form to submit your quickTIPS

EU agrees on powers to sanction, freeze assets over cyber-attacks
(Bloomberg) --The European Union on Friday agreed to new rules that will grant it authority to impose travel bans and asset freezes against individuals responsible for cyber-attacks that pose a significant threat to the bloc.
The new rules come amid concerns by European and U.S. officials over cyber-attacks related to election meddling or intellectual property theft by actors linked to Russia and China.
The measures, which aim to "deter and respond to cyber-attacks which constitute an external threat to the EU," would apply to actors responsible for attacks originating outside the bloc, the Council of EU member states said in a statement.
The bloc said it would also consider measures in response to attacks targeted at countries outside the EU or international organizations.
Bloomberg reported earlier this week that EU governments had reached a deal on the new sanctions regime.
"Our message to governments, regimes and criminal gangs prepared to carry out cyber-attacks is clear: together, the international community will take all necessary steps to uphold the rule of law and the rules-based international system which keeps our societies safe," U.K. Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt said in a statement.
EU member states in recent months had been mulling a joint response to attacks allegedly conducted by a Chinese state-linked hacker group known as APT 10, after the U.K. presented evidence about network infiltration.
The bloc in the end issued a statement in April, according to a person familiar with the matter, urging "actors to stop undertaking such malicious activities," but made no explicit mention of China or the hacker group. The statement was issued three days after a summit of EU and Beijing leaders in Brussels, where the bloc claimed it won important Chinese concessions over curbing subsidies to domestic industries and facilitating market access for foreign companies.

Another year, another Superbowl, another ad that scores big by not being aired.
This year it's not GoDaddy, it's not Danica, it's not any of the usual suspects. The Superbowl ad that isn't this time is a 60 second spot encouraging adults to contact their House and Senate representatives to push them to vote for legalizing medical marijuana.
[LISTEN: California legalization leads to falling profits for legitimate cannabis companies – PODCAST EPISODE]
Of course, with all things being Superbowl on the
last Sunday in January first Sunday in February, of course the folks at CBS aren't about to allow advertising that might further tarnish their image. Although we could – and do – say that in this case, it might actually burnish that image instead.
Acreage Holdings, which is connected to former Speaker of the House, John Boehner, submitted a draft of a commercial for approval to CBS for inclusion in the Superbowl – if you haven't seen it yet, here it is:
What's the point of submitting an ad to the Superbowl that is obviously not going to air?
That much should also be obvious. The amount of press that Acreage has gotten with the rejected ad way outweighs (see how I did that?) the ROI on what would have been a ten million dollar investment. Yep, 30 second ads are going for north of five million per spot this time – and in what could arguably be called the snooze bowl, the cheater bowl (both for the inclusion of Brady's Pats and the exclusion of the Saints), or just the generally overrated as a sporting event telecast.
[READ: Farm Bill 2018 legalizes hemp production nationally – BLOG ARTICLE]
Can you tell that I'm not too hyped on football any more? The massive amount of CTE and head trauma that the game incurs, the likelihood of serious injury, the vast number of kids who are put into a system that basically turns their brains to mush if they are any good at the game… I just don't care for it any more. Heck I used to win the football pool, at worst maybe find myself in third place, year after year after year. But no more of that, I just cannot stomach the toll that the 'game' exacts from the players any more. I'm also incredibly grateful that my son lasted less than a full season in the Pop Warner league; there was not enough action for him to enjoy the situation.
Cannabis – even medical marijuana – should NOT be linked to football, or to the Superbowl.
If people want to sit around and eat nachos and wings, drink beer, yell at the television, I'm all for that. It's practically the reason that NASCAR is televised. However, the juxtaposition of medical cannabis with a game that literally kills people smacks of hypocrisy to me. And while I understand that Acreage knew – without a doubt – that their ad would not be running and they would not be on the hook for any amount of millions in payments to CBS – I still do not like the idea that we, as an industry, find it easier to fall back to marketing the same way that alcohol and tobacco do, for what is being claimed as a medical answer to serious problems.
[SEE THE PLATFORM: Get a quick demo tailored for your business using mobile – SIGN UP HERE]
I'm certainly not the arbiter of what the cannabis industry can, should, or will do. I'm just one little cog in an ever growing machine, but I do find it ironic at best, hypocritical more likely, that we as an industry are willing to jump into bed with other large machines like the NFL or broadcast TV, in order to get a few minutes of free fame in a situation like this.
I would likely not have taken issue if a rec use company had attempted this – after all, adult use marijuana is akin to having a beer when we look at the circumstances… not a big deal, but not attempting to leverage a terribly damaging game to push holistic medicine in Congress.
We are better than this, and we should hold ourselves to a higher standard when it comes to medical use cannabis.

Mind Over Body
It amazes me every time I consult with a man or woman who is plump and far from toned or slim , but their blood sugar levels and lipid profiles are perfect as compared to so many who are fit and toned but have their blood readings,health parameters and hormones all over the place . The difference I believe is in the mind. People in the former group are just so happy, playful , fun loving and carefree with no fears and care for what people think of them while the latter group is usually is just the opposite . Fearful of every bite , negative self talk , chasing their goals and jealousy . Such is the power of human mind and thoughts on our body .
It is proven beyond doubt that there is a constant communication between the mind and body .Every thought that passes our mind or every word that we utter , it signals the body accordingly and the body responds by manifesting those thoughts . This is exactly why positive affirmations /mantras work like magic . By constantly focusing on the positive aspects of life or expressing gratitude towards little things , we automatically train our brain to think positive . When it start to think positive, we turn little into enough and this brings a sense of contentment .
Even when it comes to health , one cannot take the " mind " out of the equation of prevention and healing. Most diseases these days including the struggle and inability to lose weight may be connected to a malfunction in the body's spirit and mind . Its all 'psychosomatic', meaning , it first starts from the mind , and then by constantly thinking about it , we create a perfect environment for the disease to actually breed .So if you picture disease for yourself – you are likely to invite it. Instead, picture yourself as a healthy and happy person and you are likely to be so. It is that simple yet so very profound .
Hence its of utmost important to not only exercise our body, but also exercise and detoxify our mind. Practices like meditation , pranayama , deep breathing , positive affirmations , maintaining a gratitude journal are so so powerful because it helps us find inner balance and peace and helps handle the stressors of everyday in a more positive and less damaging way . It promotes mind – body healing and that is the foundation of holistic health.
Still not convinced about the power of mind and its connection with body ? Try this little exercise. Just before bed time, close your eyes , take a few deep breaths , slow inhales and even slower exhales , sit with your back erect and after a few breaths , start telling your mind or your subconscious mind, the time you want to wake up next morning . For eg : Whisper in your mind 'I will wake up by 6 am tomorrow'. Do it a couple of times to firmly affirm to your mind and notice how it serves you next morning .

Civic facility repairs — What about Kyle Centre ?
Kyle Centre is not included in the current $10.5 million debt/borrowing estimate for urgent repairs (see post below). Why not?
Image from report to council, Oct. 15, 2013
In 2013, Kyle Centre was considered in more urgent need of repairs than most other city facilities.
2013 Estimated costs (repairs/investment): $420,404 (catch-up $207.9K; keep-up $212.5K; get-ahead $0).
From the October 15, 2013 report to council on city facilities …
"Kyle Centre: This facility is now over 35 years old. The roof assemblies have reached the end of their service life and require renewal. It is recommend that walls located above the roof plane be done at same time as the roofs to reduce the risk of water damage to the main wood structure and interior finishes. Skylights which are part of the roof assemblies and which use old technology should also be replaced. There are reported carpenter ants problems within the facility. As part of the required renewal of exterior wall assemblies and to reduce the risk of further carpenter ant problem, it is recommended to cutback/clear the landscaping around the building. It was reported that the Kyle Centre may suffer from functional obsolescence. For instance the office space does not function well and the dance room floor limits the type of activities that can take place within that room."
Does the omission of Kyle Centre in the current borrowing plan have anything to do with this?
During the OCP consultation process when numerous concerns were raised, the public was told repeatedly there would be many future opportunities to comment on proposed changes, because the OCP was "a vision" — not a development document.
So let's get the conversation started!
Future of the Kyle Centre

If not could these be considered as a feature for future cards? Instead of dual booting my pc between linux and windows for gaming, I would like to switch to using a vm when I have to use windows. However I like having extra pcie slots for other things, if I could do this in 1 slot it would be great.

If you live in Whitefield or close enough, you definitely have to make the trip in the next couple of days – I'm telling you, it's worth it!
For the next couple of days from the 8th to the 13th of July, you can get your drink on at half the price! That's right! From 12 pm to 7 pm you can sip on awesome craft beer, cocktails and hard liquor at 50 percent off! Honestly, with the number of microbreweries around in the city it's pretty hard to stand out, but stand out they have!
The lager, dark lager and wheat beer is absolutely brilliant (IPA is a little bitter for my taste, but to each, their own) and their cocktails are seriously out of this world.

If you have a pattern of suddenly feeling very sick after consuming alcohol, you may wonder if you developed sudden onset alcohol intolerance. You may also wonder if such a condition is possible. Sudden alcohol intolerance is a real condition, but it can sometimes be confused with other related conditions such as allergies or drug interactions with alcohol.
Symptoms of Alcohol Intolerance
Symptoms of alcohol intolerance most often develop rapidly. Sometimes they can occur immediately following drinking alcohol. Symptoms can be mild or severe and may include:
- Flushed skin
- Nausea
- Fast heartbeat
- Low blood pressure
- Headache
- Feeling very tired
- Stuffy nose
Even if you know alcohol makes you feel poorly, it can sometimes be hard to figure out the root cause of the problem. The symptoms may be caused by a few different conditions:
- Having an alcohol allergy: An allergy to alcohol itself is very rare as the body naturally produces small amounts of alcohol on its own.
- Having an allergy to a specific ingredient in your drink: Alcoholic drinks may contain allergens, which can range from wheat to egg proteins. Allergens in your drink may be the cause of your symptoms. You may be able to drink alcohol if you can avoid the specific ingredient that makes you feel unwell.
- Medication interacting with alcohol: Several drugs may make you feel very sick when taken with alcohol. You can feel sick due to a drug interaction with alcohol. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist to make sure that your drugs are safe to take with alcohol.
- Alcohol intolerance: Having an alcohol intolerance is a genetic condition that means your body can't process alcohol easily. With this condition, you have an inactive or less-active form of the chemical that breaks down alcohol in your body.
Causes of Alcohol Intolerance
The main cause of alcohol intolerance is a problem in how the body breaks down alcohol. When you drink alcohol, your liver first breaks down alcohol into a toxic chemical called acetaldehyde. Doctors have found that acetaldehyde can cause cancer and make you feel very sick. For this reason, your body usually breaks it down into non-toxic byproducts very quickly. Your body uses a chemical called aldehyde dehydrogenase, or ALDH2, to break down acetaldehyde.
When broken down, acetaldehyde can't hurt you. However, in some people, ALDH2 does not work correctly, resulting in alcohol intolerance. Sometimes, high levels of acetaldehyde can even lead to an asthma attack. Research has shown that up to half of asthma patients in Japan have had an attack due to high levels of acetaldehyde that their bodies can't break down.
Doctors have found that a problem with ALDH2 is genetic. Therefore, it is likely that your family members are at risk for the same problem. The main risk factors for having a problem with ALDH2 is being of East Asian descent, especially:
- Chinese
- Korean
- Japanese
Complications of Alcohol Intolerance
Even if you only have mild symptoms of alcohol intolerance, you should avoid alcohol. Research has shown that some people with mild symptoms of intolerance can get used to the symptoms of excess acetaldehyde in their bodies. However, acetaldehyde is still highly toxic and can cause cancer. For this reason, doctors found that there is a high rate of esophagus cancer in East Asian patients with mild alcohol intolerance who drink alcohol. This type of cancer is very deadly. The top five-year survival rate is only 31%. East Asian patients with mild alcohol intolerance are up to 10 times more likely to develop this type of cancer if they drink alcohol.
Treatment for Alcohol Intolerance
Unfortunately, the only treatment for alcohol intolerance is avoiding alcohol. No drug will help you avoid the symptoms of alcohol intolerance or lessen your cancer risk. However, doctors have focused research on trying to find a solution to the problem.
Key Points: Sudden Onset Alcohol Intolerance
Important points about sudden onset alcohol intolerance to keep in mind include:
- Alcohol intolerance may be confused with other conditions such as an allergy to alcohol, an allergy to drink ingredients or a drug's interaction with alcohol
- You are at higher risk for alcohol intolerance if you are of East Asian descent
- Alcohol intolerance is a genetic condition and it is, therefore, likely that your family members are at risk
- There is no treatment for alcohol intolerance at this time, other than avoiding alcohol
- Mild alcohol intolerance can mean you have minimal symptoms, but if you do not avoid alcohol then you are at higher risk for having cancer

In my point of view, the movie Jubilee is very interesting because it enhances an irresistible and unbalanced stability between complete anarchy and absolute beauty. This experimental movie is based on the fictional story, which is easy to contemplate. It is about Queen Elizabeth and John Dee, the alchemist known from the history that calls for the spirit of Ariel, and conveys all the spirit from the past into the modern life, where they discover London to be an abandoned area that survived a cataclysm. . In the film, Jenny Runacre, who is talented in various aspects acts as Queen Elizabeth and the erratic "queen" Bod, living in the present. Bod is a leader of a biker gang, where all members are women. The events in the film make one to get addicted in watching the film often. This is because it remains in one's mind, since the events increase one's intelligence by constantly being provocative with innovative links and hence able to obtain more meaning of the film in one's day-to –day activities. The artistic side in the movie is that it is not a punk film but it is rather a Derek Jarman film. The movie is a result of comprising sadness, brilliant imagery, poetry and some deeply poetic discussion.

I shot Andy Warhol
The motivating movie, I Shot Andy Warhol describes the life of the mentally disordered feminist Valerie Solanas. The film is phenomenal as it leads one into the loathsome realities of life that eventually are faced by each of us. The movie narrates the story of the degradation of Valerie Solanas and her developing obsession and hatred with Andy Warhol that resulted in the gunfire. As it was mentioned above, the film is really amazing in taking one's mind into the ugly realities which cannot be escaped. This makes one to be able to adapt to the ugly world and instead of running away from it, one is able to think of the way out to modify it. The artistic side in the movie seems to be a bother to most of the people. This is because Lily Taylor, bases most of her concepts on distrust and hatred against men. However, this tends to reveal the depressing factor portrayed in the movie, since Lily Taylor puts her heart and soul into Oscar, who seem to be one of the depressed character in the movie.

You've got a problem in your business. Is it time to create a new policy to address the issue? Let's start with when it's not a good idea to create a new policy. When a manager or supervisor thinks it's easier to make a policy than deal with a performance issue with one or a few people, they are going to find themselves in a heck of a mess. It's not a good idea to subject everyone to a policy that is generated by the misdeeds or misunderstandings of a few. That's the job of the manager, and that's performance management.
Now that we've dispensed with that, here are 4 key things to consider in determining whether you need a new policy or not:
1. When safety is a real concern
2. When structure is needed for a chaotic situation – e.g. there is no dress code and the people who meet with customers/public dress in a wide array of outfits that sometimes do and sometimes do not reflect the company's values or desired image.
3. When consistency is crucial to business strategy, bottom line, and/or fairness – e.g. internal ethics, attendance, paid time off, benefits, parking, travel expense policy, etc.
4. When laws and/or regulations outside the business are driving the rules of behavior or operation.
People often confuse process with policy. They are not the same. Process is "how" something gets done; policy is "what" will or must be done. For example, you may have a hiring process with steps 1-5 that you mostly adhere to, yet you may choose to flex and change when specific circumstances require it. However, you will likely have a hard and fast policy that says you will not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, age, ethnicity…etc. and that policy does not flex, ever.
Rule of thumb – less is more when it comes to policies. You need enough to create appropriate structure and consistency, help all your people understand the "rules of the game," and no more. Focus your efforts on having good processes and good leaders conducting good performance management, day to day, and you won't need a lot of policies.

It's hard to advocate for commercial surrogacy in Australia when we are exposed to so many stories about how it can go horribly wrong.
Recently, we heard about a U.S. man who has demanded that his commercial surrogate abort one of three babies she is expecting, threatening her with financial and legal ramifications if she doesn't comply.
California-based surrogate Melissa Cook is 17 weeks pregnant with three babies on behalf of a man who paid her approximately $45,000 AUD. Three viable embryos were created using his sperm and a donor egg from a twenty-year-old.
When all were successfully implanted, the man then demanded the abortion.
Cook, 47, initially refused his request, saying she'd bonded with the babies and didn't understand why he would ask her to go through a reduction procedure.
She wrote him a heartfelt letter, saying, "The doctor put in three healthy embryos. The chances were high they were all going to take. You knew I was 47 years old. If you knew you only wanted two babies, then why put in three embryos?"
It was after discovering she was expecting triplets at around eight or nine weeks that the father began pressuring her to "reduce" them, a term used to abort selected fetuses during multiple pregnancies to allow the remaining ones a better chance to thrive.
The father "almost immediately" began pressuring her to abort one of the fetuses and his lawyer contacted her just a few days ago, warning that she must abide by the terms of the agreement or will face, "loss of all benefits under the agreement, damages in relation to future care of the children [and] medical costs associated with any extraordinary care the children may need."
With four children of her own, three of whom are triplets, Cook has successfully acted as a surrogate before. This time, it has become a nightmare for her and she told the New York Post that she will probably end up complying with the father's request to reduce due to the legal and financial ramifications she is facing.
Commercial surrogacy is legal in 22 states in the U.S. This particular drama is unfolding in California however is a hot topic in New York where a commercial surrogacy ban has been in place since 1993, however a push is underway to legalise the practice.
This isn't the only story of surrogacy gone wrong that is fueling debate against it in places like New York and in Australia where domestic commercial surrogacy is still illegal in all states and territories.
Although altruistic surrogacy (whereby no payment is made) is legal. Access to overseas commercial surrogacy is allowed everywhere except NSW, QLD and the ACT, but is incredibly rare.
However, even the illegality of commercial surrogacy in those states and territories can be questioned. There is some argument that the relevant state leg that criminalises os commer surrog in NSW QLD AC is invallid under section 109 of the Australian Constitution.
Former The View co-host Sherri Shepherd has been ordered to pay approximately $5,600 AUD in child support to her ex-husband Lamar Sally after a fight over financial responsibility for a baby born via a surrogate. 10-month-old Lamar Jr. is in the care of Sally who fought to have Shepherd listed as the legal mother on the birth certificate and then pursued child support.

Covering horrifying news this week left me feeling exhausted. In addition, it was just a full week in general. I had things going on every day after work. When I got home in the evenings, I poured some food in Carlos' bowl, tossed clothes, mail, etc. on the chair and washed my face and got into my cozy bed. In the mornings, I'd give Carlos a good brushing and check his litter box before leaving for the day.
Although I volunteered to work today (Saturday), I was thrilled when my phone rang late last night with the news that I didn't need to sign on to work today. I could just be on call in case anything broke.
I woke up this morning and looked around my messy apartment. Dishes were piled up in the sink. Cat fur covered the rug. That pile on the chair needed dealing with. I made coffee, fed Carlos and collected the mail to sort through while streaming "Smash."
While tackling the other chores, I got to wondering why I prioritized the cat all week. I scooped his litter box and brushed him daily even though I was neglecting my own comfort. Not that Carlos doesn't deserve to be cared for. I mean he is the one in this apartment 24 hours a day. I come and go.
It reminded me of a couple conversations I've had recently. One was with a co-worker who told me she wants to get a cat, but she doesn't think it would be fair to have a pet in her tiny studio. "Then I remember I live there," she said.
We laughed at the irony of thinking her place is suitable for a grown adult, but not an 8-pound cat.
Another friend was telling me he could never have kids in the city because he wouldn't want to subject them to the people on the subway. "It's bad enough that I have to see people peeing on the subway. I shouldn't expose children to that," he said.
Fair point. But again, what's with the I-can-handle-it-but-no-one-else-should-have-to attitude? Don't we deserve to treat ourselves well, too?

Dhaka, Nov 17 (UNB) - Las Migas from Spain made the audience of Dhaka spellbound with their soulful song and fascinating blend of Flamenco and Mediterranean style.
They performed at the Bangladesh Army Stadium in the capital on the final day of 'Dhaka International Folk Fest', the pioneering international folk music festival of the subcontinent, in the capital's Army Stadium.
Response from audience proved that their hour long performance will prevail in the heart of Bangladeshis for a long time.
The Mediterranean music was totally able to vibrate the metro listeners and connect city audiences.
The sound from the soft voice of Bego Salazar, the singer of the band with charming rhythm touched the heart of the folk lovers who gathered to listen to the folk in the stadium.
The stage was the main attraction for the audience during their pleasant performance as the less known rhythmic sound was forcing them to stay with the stage.
The vocalist Bego Salazar expressed his extreme happiness to be a part of this festival during her short speech and excited to share their song with the Bangladeshi audience.
"Really we are very happy to be part of this. It is big festival for folk singers. We hope you will enjoy our emotion, songs and do not hesitate to dance with beat our songs," she added.
Las Migas is unique among Spanish music groups, a fascinating blend of Flamenco and Mediterranean styles that combines classic and contemporary rhythms.
The four women of Las Migas come from four different cities that span not only geography but also the cultural diversity of Spain: Barcelona, Sevilla, Córdoba and Lérida.
Las Migas was formed in 2004 in Barcelona, Spain. They come with the breeze of the Mediterranean Sea and bring their soul and heart into their music.
Some claim their songs to be Mediterranean or soulful song but labeling their song to a particular genre would be difficult. They play rhythmic songs.
At present Las Migas have Bego Salazar as the vocalist, Marta Robles and Alicia Grillo on guitar, and Roser Loscos on violin.
These four band members have different perspectives towards music and the incorporation their thought to a single thread makes the band unique.
Las Migas perform Flamenco music, giving this beautiful genre a new definition.
The band was nominated for the 18th Latin Grammy Award in the category of 'Best Flamenco music' in 2017 for their album 'Vente Conmigo'.
New York, Nov 16 (AP) — A painting by the British artist David Hockney fetched $90.3 million at Christie's on Thursday night, easily breaking the record for a work by a living artist sold at auction.
Among his famous "pool paintings," ''Portrait of an Artist (Pool with Two Figures)" is considered one of his premier works. The previous record by a living artist was set by Jeff Koons' "Balloon Dog," which sold for $58.4 million in 2013.
The 1972 painting by Hockney, now 81, is "the holy grail of his paintings, from both the historical and the market perspectives," Alex Rotter, co-chairman of post-war and contemporary art at Christie's, said in September. He noted that it reflects both the European and the American perspectives of an artist who came to live in sunny California in the '60s, and saw himself as living on both continents.
"It has all the elements that you would want in a Hockney painting," Rotter said in an interview. He noted that writers have referred to the swimming pool as being sort of a self-portrait of Hockney, though he never confirmed that, just saying he was fascinated to paint moving water.
The painting, whose buyer was not immediately revealed, had been long held by a private collector.
A depiction of two men — one swimming the breaststroke underwater, the other standing by the pool looking down — the painting was originally inspired, according to background provided by Christie's, by two photographs Hockney found juxtaposed on his studio floor, one of a swimmer in Hollywood in 1966, and another of a boy staring at something on the ground.
The rocky landscape is in southern France, and the standing figure is said to represent Peter Schlesinger, whom the artist met in 1966, when the younger man was a student in one of Hockney's art classes at UCLA. For the next five years, according to Christie's, he was both "the great love of Hockney's life" and one of his favorite models.
The relationship ended in 1971. Hockney had already begun the painting and he abandoned it, starting again the following year.
Dhaka, Nov 17 (UNB) - The country's biggest folk festival passed its second day on Friday with the mesmerizing presentation of folk music.
The performers from home and abroad showed their deep-rooted folk presentation in the Army Stadium where Rajshahi-originated local folk-fusion band Swarobanjo started on the second night of the folk festival.
The folk-fusion band Swarobanjo was formed in 2014 and has shared all of its music under Creative Commons License, non-commercially. Though this band is an open group, they have a stable band lineup. In continuation of that belief, they inaugurated 'Copyleft Movement' in Bangladesh.
This band sings about the protest of common people and about their hurdles since their interception. This band has so far published two albums namely 'Gan-Bajna' and 'Haoar Chithi' released in 2015 and 2016, but these two albums are not available in the market.
Majaz, a band formed in 2013, originally from Bahrain, located in the Arabian Peninsula came to stage after the performance of Swarobanjo.
Bringing out the best vibe to the listeners is the best possible attribute of the progressive fusion band Majaz as they executed the same thing in Dhaka. Initially, the band's name was 'Mazaj', later it was converted to 'Majaz' for creative purpose.
The songs of the heritage of Arabian music amazed the audience very much by their soulful creations and their instrumental arrangement.
Lately, they performed in the biggest music festival 'Spring of Culture' of Bahrain. The band members are Jehad Al Halal (Cello), Abdulla Faisal (Percussions), Salah Sharakhat (Bass), Hameed Al Saeed (Guitar).
The Raghu Dixit Project from India also performed the mixture of modern and international music with Indian folk music.
This band brought out the rooted and earthy sound of modern India which gave the excitement to the listeners and folk lovers.
Raghupathi Dwarakanath Dixit is a singer, musician, music producer and a famous name among the folk genre of India who formed the group 'The Raghu Dixit Project' in 2005.
The world-renowned Glastonbury festival and many more concerts around the world was heated with the beats of The Raghu Dixit Project. They were featured the BBC's 'Later with Jules Holland', Sydney Opera House for their folk songs.
The Raghu Dixit Project made every song vibrant as they believe that no listener should engulf into sadness while listening to songs that is why their every performance creates a feeling of enthusiasm among each and every listener.
The rhythm of Conjunto-based Songs did not disappoint to cheer up the mood of listeners of Dhaka in the jam-packed stadium. The music of this band led the listeners to a joyful ride as they are the masters of Tehano/Tex-Mex.
Los Texmaniacs, 2010 Grammy Award winner on the category of 'Best Tejano Music', also performed twice on the festival of 'Smithsonian Folklife Festival'.
The folk lovers also experienced the Josh Baca's amazing accordion playing and skill in the fundamental conjunto tradition while the drummer Lorenzo Martínez brought Mexican and Chicano influence in the band.
The queen of folk music in Bangladesh Momtaz Begum placed a powerful performance in front of people and was successfully able to satisfy the listeners.
Momtaz Begum, the jewel of Bangladeshi folk music, also served as the Member of Parliament in Bangladesh. She took music lessons from an early age from her father Modhu Boyati. Later, she became the protégé of Matal Kobi Razzak Dewan and Abdur Rashid Sarkar.
The audience was crazy over on the occasion for her performances which celebrates the rich culture of Bangla folk music. She has been appreciated for her performances in UK, USA, and many more.
New York, Nov 16 (AP/UNB) — The Statue of Liberty's original torch, which has been housed in the base of the statue since a replica replaced it in the 1980s, was moved across Liberty Island on Thursday to its new home in a museum that will open next year.
Visitors watched as the base and the detached flame of the 3,600-pound (1,633-kilogram) torch were trucked slowly and carefully to the museum construction site about 100 yards (91 meters) from the statue.
Officials with the National Park Service and the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation said the torch was removed in 1984 because it was too badly damaged to restore.
"Taking it down was very frightening," said Stephen Briganti, president and CEO of the foundation. "We had the largest freestanding scaffolding that at that point had ever been built."
Thursday's brief trip to the museum site was the latest chapter for an icon that "has crossed many miles in its lifetime," Briganti said.
The torch left France in 1876 for the United States, where it was exhibited at the Centennial celebration in Philadelphia and then in New York City's Madison Square Park. The trip was intended to raise funds to pay for the statue's pedestal, Briganti said.
It went back to Paris in 1882, then returned to the New York Harbor along with other crated pieces of the statue in 1885.
The torch was held high by Lady Liberty from 1886 to 1984, but modifications to the flame changed its original design over the years.
The flame resembled a stained-glass sculpture lying on its specially designed flatbed truck. That's because the sculptor Gutzon Borglum, who also designed Mount Rushmore, "put all the holes in it with amber glass" during a 1916 redesign, park Superintendent John Piltzecker said. "It led to the flame's deterioration."
The torch was further weakened in July of that year by the Black Tom explosion, an act of German sabotage at a munitions plant nearby in Jersey City.
The 1980s gilt flame that the statue is holding now restores sculptor Frederic Auguste Bartholdi's original design, officials said.
The old torch, meanwhile, made another fundraising trip at the end of 1984, traveling to Pasadena, where it starred in the Rose Parade.
A trench was dug under the statue so that the 16-foot (4.9-meter) original torch could be moved into the pedestal when it returned to New York.
It couldn't depart the pedestal that way Thursday, Piltzecker said. "It had to come out in two pieces."
Joining the torch's two pieces was a full-scale copper replica of the statue's face. The torch and the face will be highlights of the new $100 million museum, which is scheduled to open in May 2019.
Dhaka, Nov 15 (UNB) – Dhaka International Folk Festival commences Thursday evening with Bhabna, a dance troupe, from Bangladesh presenting the inaugural show from 6pm.

Sun Communications in association with Sun Foundation is organizing the festival in the country for the fourth year.

The performances will run from November 15 -17 at Bangladesh Army Stadium every day from 6pm to 12am.
