Morning Walk, Playing in the park, Picnics, just standing under the sun, swimming and it goes on. But, all of us will feel one thing in common when we talk about summer - 'The Heat'.

| | How Supersized Food and Drinks Were Born... | | 2008-08-07 10:53:00 | | Do you know how supersized foods and drinks came about? Think it was McDonald's? You're not too far off but no it wasn't McDonald's or 7-11 with the Big Gulp.The history of Supersizing:In the 1960's a man named David Wallerstein worked for a chain of movie theaters, where he struggled to expand sales of soda and popcorn, the high-markup items that theaters depend on to make profits.Wallerstein tried everything he could think of to boost sales, two-for-one deals, matinee specials, but found he couldn't get customers to buy more than one soda and one bag of popcorn. Why? Because going for seconds makes people feel like pigs.Wallerstein discovered that people would spring for more popcorn and soda, a lot more, as long as it came in a single gigantic serving. This is how the Big Gulp and, in time, the Big Mac and jumbo fries came along.Until his death in 1993, Wallerstein served on the board of directors at McDonald's. Though Ray Kroc himself took some convincing about supersizing: the McD... | | By: Whole Food And More | | |

| | Michael Silver drinks the Haterade | | 2008-07-23 11:52:44 | |
Remember a few weeks ago when the yearly "Jaguars for sale" story came out? I discussed that every summer you can count on the NFL writers to re-hash the same story over and over again. I had forgotten about one tradition, Michael Silver's worst-to-first Owners Rankings. Just like last year, he's egregiously unfair to Wayne Weaver, which has me convinced that the Weavers must have ran over Silver's dog at some point. I cannot understand for the life of me where the venom toward the Weavers comes from.
I quote:
32. Jacksonville Jaguars – Wayne Weaver: It was bad enough when moaned his way into hosting a Super Bowl, citing the need to help to finance renovations to a stadium in which he would later cover up nearly 10,000 seats to give the team a prayer of selling out on Sundays. What truly irks me, however, is Weaver’s stubborn insistence that he’s not trying to sell the franchise – “The team is not for sale,” he said earlier ... | | By: Big Cat Country - An Unoffical Jacksonville Jaguar | | |

| | | | Sports Drinks and Diabetes | | 2008-05-21 00:29:08 | | by Shannon HoovenHow many times have you been to a high school sports game? Have you ever noticed the amount of sports drinks they consume during a 40 minute basketball game? Have you ever wondered how much of that stuff they may drink in a day, even a week? Perhaps everyday for many years. Did you ever think it may cause Type2 Diabetes? I never did until it happened to me.In high school I played three sports and lifted weights everyday. I was very active and healthy. My body was not overweight, although I ate like most teens do. Fast food, junk food, whatever I could call a meal.Fast forward ten years. I was now over weight. I did not play sports anymore and I was still eating the same meals as before, Fast food. It was the same lifestyle I had ten years before, but without the exercise. What happened next was I got Type2 Diabetes. This may sound a little odd. After many talks with my doctor , we concluded that sports drinks may have been the underlying cause of my Type2 Diabetes.

| | Martin Eberhard’s blog gets redacted, he drinks the Volt Kool-Aid | | 2008-01-18 20:40:16 | | Over at Martin Eberhard's new soapbox, the TeslaFounders blog, he giveth and taketh away. First with the latter. When we first checked in with Martin a couple of weeks ago, he was writing about what he described as a Stealth Bloodbath. That post has since been redacted although it can be found in that fount of knowledge known as the Google cache. It just goes to show yet again that once something gets out on the world wild web, no matter how many lawyers you sick on it, it's unlikely to ever truly go away. By the way, Tesla's Darryl Siry didn't know who if anyone at Tesla actually contacted Martin about removing the post. On the giveth side, Martin's latest entry talks about his encounter last year with Bob Lutz. When one of our colleagues encountered Eberhard checking out the Volt in Detroit last year, he was dismissive of the idea. However at some point after the show he had a private audience with Maximum Bob. Between that encounter and other discussions with people involved in the Volt program, he came to realize that GM was serious and the idea actually had merit in advancing the cause of vehicle electrification. You can read Martin's whole tale over his blog.[Source: TeslaFounders.com]... | | By: Auto News: Car Reviews, Car News, Car Shows | | |

| | | $210,000 Spent On Drinks In Five Hours | | 2007-07-24 21:24:23 | | Last Friday we had a surprise going away party for our man Hank. He is moving back across the mountains to take the next step of his legitimate career. Fifty of our closest friends gathered at a local hot spot to see him off and we managed to rack up just over a $4000 tab for the night. I was pretty impressed with our group performance, I have never seen so many Irish Car Bombs poured, but this S.O.B. over in the U.K. really put us to shame.
A Middle Eastern businessman spent over $210,000 in a five-hour, champagne- and vodka-fuelled spending spree in a London nightclub at the weekend.
But before long he was ordering magnums of Dom Perignon at $1,400 each and then called for a Methuselah — eight bottles in one — of Cristal Champagne at $60,000 and the party spread.
“…and the party spread.” I would sure as fuck hope the party would spread if I just dropped 60 grand on 8 magnum bottles of champagne. If that doesn’t get a party going I don’t think anything will.

| | Toronto Drinks Show | | 2007-07-15 02:35:40 | | This weekend was the 4th annual Drinks Show held at the Brick Works in Toronto. This event was created by Laura and Michelle of the Martini Club as a way of celebrating modern cocktail culture. The show is a cocktails only, no beer, no wine, which is a nice touch because focus is good. It runs from 5PM to 11PM Friday and Saturday and parking is effectively no existant, but they do provide free bus service to, and from, the show to select locations in Toronto. This was my first year attending the Drinks Show, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Here’s how it turned out.

| | | Energy Drinks Keep You Awake? | | 2007-05-30 11:21:53 | | There have been a lot of energy drinks made available in the market today. These drinks such as that of Chin Chin Vitality Boost or Red Bull are mainly used to help add boost in the active lifestyles of most athletes. However today, many people have used them as a means of being awake since most of them have caffeine which we all know is the prime enemy of sleep.
While the added energy for sleep deprived people is a benefit, it cannot be discounted that most people will have to deal with sleep and fatigue at some point. It is simply something that is only a temporary resort and people should be aware of it.
This is a clear abuse of health. While it is okay to consume them from time to time, making it a habit will eventually become risky and people should be aware that the human body can take only so much.

| | | Soft Drinks vs Natural Drinks | | 2006-08-15 11:27:00 | | Heard of the recent news on pesticides in Cola and Pepsi right?This post is about my opinion on these products and the alternative we have.All my life, I've consumed these products minimum number of times. If I remember correctly, I've consumed both Coca Cola and Pepsi just once or twice, and their other products, fanta, sprite etc few more times. (Have consumed Maaza, Slice, AquaFina and Kinley a number of times). Because I'm not a regular user of these products I may not have enough authority to comment on them, but still, I'm proceeding.I understand and agree that these soft drinks are sweet, served chilled, hence quench your thirst. Pesticides or not I’m still unable to understand what value addition these drinks have to our health. Technically speaking, these are just water with sweeteners and preservatives. They contain phosphoric acid and other chemicals. In no way these drinks contribute to health factor.Then why people drink them?The sole reason they’re popular is beca... | | By: eNidhi - A professional amateur | | |
