Coca Cola Ginger.

Coca Cola o smaku imbirowym to nowość. Na razie tylko Australijczycy będą mogli sprawdzić jak smakuje.

Coca Cola has launched a new limited edition ginger-flavoured drink called 'Coca Cola Ginger'. 

The new range of fizzy beverage is described as having a 'Great Coke taste with a refreshing ginger twist'.

Labels on the new Coke bottles are similar to the original, but feature strips of gold and both the plastic and glass bottles have gold lids. 

Australia was chosen as the first country in the world to try the new flavour, which launched nationwide on Monday.

The cans, which are being sold individually or in a six-pack, are bright red with a section of gold at the top.

METALLICA.

28 października 1981, czyli 35  lat temu,  powstał zespół Metallica. 
Metallica, one of the biggest selling acts in American history, were born on October 28, 1981 when drummer Lars Ulrich and guitar player/singer James Hetfield got together via Ulrich’s LA Recycler newspaper ad. Soon, the two had recruited Hetfield’s friend and housemate Ron McGovney to play bass, Dave Mustaine to play lead guitar, and taken the name Metallica after a suggestion from Bay Area metal scene friend Ron Quintana. Their ascent was to be relatively quick, driven by sheer work-rate, effort and a rare musical chemistry. After hitting the opener’s circuit in LA (where they supported the likes of Saxon) they recorded their first ever demo No Life ‘Til Leather.

Healthy fast food?

Z artykułu w Daily Mail możemy się dowiedzieć jakie potrawy  uznano za najzdrowsze z oferowanych przez różne restauracje fast food. Warto przeczytać !

We all know that junk food isn't exactly good for us.

But over the last few years, the rising demand for lighter, less calorific meals has seen the most popular fast food chains offering a much wider range of salads and healthier options.

So is there any way of sticking to your diet and eating at McDonald's, Burger King, or KFC? 

London-based nutritionist Rhiannon Lambert says there is - and has told FEMAIL the healthiest items on the menu at six of the UK's biggest fast food chain restaurants.

Junior Eurovision Song Contest

Konkurs Piosenki Eurowizji dla Dzieci organizowany jest od 2003 roku, jednak Polska nie może się pochwalić żadnymi sukcesami. Nasi reprezentanci uczestniczyli w zmaganiach konkursowych tylko dwa razy  - w 2003 i 2004 r. 
Do trzech razy sztuka! Być może rok 2016 okaże się lepszy. Tegoroczny finał dziecięcej Eurowizji odbędzie się 20 listopada na Malcie.

Wax on apples.

Piękne, błyszczące jabłka kupowane w sklepach zawdzięczają swój blask warstwie wosku, która chroni je przed zepsuciem. Co robić aby się go pozbyć? Wyczerpująco na ten temat pisze The SUN.

Shop bought apples are covered in wax to keep them shiny during their long journey from the apple orchard to the supermarket.

It may be seriously off-putting to some people, but the wax used to cover the apples is completely natural and often made from beetle mucus which the creatures use to cover and protect its eggs.

Although it’s completely safe to eat, it is easy to scrub off if you don’t want to consume it

This video from Little Things: DIY shows just how much wax is really on the delicious fruit:

The world's smallest museum.

To prawdopodobnie najmniejsze muzeum na świecie otwarto niedawno we wsi Warley (Yorkshire).
Mieści się ono w budce telefonicznej. Do zwiedzania obiektu trzeba ustawiać się w kolejce, bo do budki może wejść tylko jedna osoba.

A Yorkshire village has created what could be the world's smallest museum by transforming a disused phone box.

The attraction in Warley, near Halifax, only has enough room for one visitor at a time.

But despite the limitations of space, it features etched glass, old photographs and a selection of personal items that tell the history of the village.

Halloween night in Dracula's Castle.

Coś dla odważnych entuzjastów obchodzenia Halloween. Zamek Drakuli oferuje noclegi w trumnach i inne mrożące krew w żyłach atrakcje.

In Bram Stoker's famous novel, Dracula, the protagonist finds himself desperate to escape the bloodthirsty vampire's lair - but would you brave it all and spend a night at the very same castle? 

On October 31, the night of Halloween, Bran Castle in Transylvania - the inspiration for Count Dracula's home - will welcome two overnight guests, marking the first time since 1948 that anyone has slept in the 15th century fortress.

As part of a promotion by home-sharing website, Airbnb, guests will be wined and dined, then left alone to lie down in red velvet-trimmed coffins just as Dracula did in Stoker's horror novel that popularized the legend.

The Times They Are a-Changin'

Kto by pomyślał, że Bob Dylan zostanie kiedyś  laureatem Nagrody Nobla https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3eRTJSV0lo
ale czas, czas wszystko zmienia....

Come gather 'round people where ever you roam

And admit that the waters around you have grown

And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone

If your time to you is worth savin'

Then you better start swimmin' or you'll sink like a stone,

For the times they are a' changin'!

Mogę za to ostrzegać. NIE WYCISKAJCIE - to może nawet zabić!

National Poetry Day

Dziś w Wielkiej Brytanii obchodzony jest Narodowy Dzień Poezji. Święto ustanowiono w roku 1994, a jego inicjatorem był William Sieghart - brytyjski przedsiębiorca i wydawca, który powiedział:
"There are millions of talented poets out there and it’s about time they got some recognition for their work. They shouldn’t be embarrassed about reading their work out aloud. I want people to read poetry on the bus on their way to work, in the street, in school and in the pub."

 Co się robi  tego dnia?  Po prostu czyta poezję -  w autobusie, w szkole, w pracy, w pubie
W tegoroczne obchody włączył się czynnie sam Książę Walii,

Dangerous hornets.

Azjatyckie szerszenie pojawiły się w Wielkiej Brytanii. Stanowią wielkie zagrożenie dla pszczół.

A pumpkin-sized Asian hornets' nest has been discovered in the UK just one month after the killer insects were first spotted on British soil.

The nest was found at the top of a 55ft conifer tree in Tetbury, Gloucestershire, close to where the insects were first seen. 

They have since been spotted in six different locations, raising concerns about the threat to Britain's honey bee population.
