Thai food is among the spiciest foods in the world. Spicy food is said to raise your metabolism and slow down your eating with that little zing.

03/11Poland: Eat home-cooked meal more often
To avoid wastage of money and to keep health intact, Poles prefer eating at home more often. They spend only 5 per cent of their money on eating out as compared to Canadians who spend about 30 per cent of their income on eating out.
04/11Germany: Eat breakfast
Around 75 per cent of Germans eat their breakfast daily, which includes whole-grain cereals, bread and fruits. Experts have been advising people not to skip breakfast for years now. Skipping breakfast makes you indulge in high-calorie foods later. The easiest change to control binge eating is by starting your day right.
05/11United Kingdom: Eat small portions
British people prefer eating smaller portions at home and even at restaurants. As per nutritionists, supersizing a meal helps supersize you.
06/11France: Do not eat too fast
The French are known for having leisurely family meals. As per studies, on an average 92 per cent of French families dine together at night. These meals typically last for 33 minutes on the weekdays and 43 minutes on the weekends. It might sound illogical but longer meals actually encourage less eating. It takes around 20 minutes from the time you are full for your brain to realise that you are full. Thus, taking more time to eat means you are actually eating less. https://e6a29352d9fe81e806c2adcb4c2acb83.safeframe.googlesyndication.com/safeframe/1-0-37/html/container.html?n=0

08/11Russia: Grow your food
Russia, which has a similar climate to Canada grows its own vegetables and fruits. This makes their diet automatically more nutritious. They even preserve the food they grow.
09/11Mexico: Eat a big lunch
Mexicans eat their biggest meal between 2 pm to 4 pm instead of eating a heavy meal at night. The logic behind this is, if you eat a smaller dinner, you will wake up feeling hungrier and will have a bigger breakfast, which facilitates weight loss.
10/11Hungary: Eat more pickles
Hungarians do not just pickle their cucumbers but also bells peppers, cabbage and tomatoes too. All the vinegar in these pickles can help make you lose weight.
Chronic sleep deprivation leads to weight gain. That is why people in Japan take a 20-30 minutes nap to complete their sleep. Many people feel they are hungry when they are actually sleepy, so they eat a snack instead of taking a nap.
Also, the less you sleep, the lower are your leptin (helps sense the brain when you are full) levels and higher are your ghrelin (triggers hunger) levels.

1897, scientist named Amos Dolbear published the article, The Cricket as a Thermometer that noted the correlation between the ambient temperature and the rate which rickets chirp.
Here is that formula…
To convert cricket chirps to degrees Fahrenheit, just count the number of chirps in 14 seconds, then add 40 to get the temperature.
It is said to be the approximation of the outside temperature.
On August 17, 1969, the grooviest event in music history–the Woodstock Music & Art Fair–draws to a close after three days of peace, love and rock ‘n’ roll in upstate New York.
Conceived as “Three Days of Peace and Music,” Woodstock was a product of a partnership between John Roberts, Joel Rosenman, Artie Kornfield and Michael Lang. Their idea was to make enough money from the event to build a recording studio near the arty New York town of Woodstock. When they couldn’t find an appropriate venue in the town itself, the promoters decided to hold the festival on a 600-acre dairy farm in Bethel, New York—some 50 miles from Woodstock—owned by Max Yasgur.
By the time the weekend of the festival arrived, the group had sold a total of 186,000 tickets and expected no more than 200,000 people to show up. By Friday night, however, thousands of eager early arrivals were pushing against the entrance gates. Fearing they could not control the crowds, the promoters made the decision to open the concert to everyone, free of charge. Close to half a million people attended Woodstock, jamming the roads around Bethel with eight miles of traffic.
Soaked by rain and wallowing in the muddy mess of Yasgur’s fields, young fans best described as “hippies” euphorically took in the performances of acts like Janis Joplin, Arlo Guthrie, Joe Cocker, Joan Baez, Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Sly and the Family Stone and Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young. The Who performed in the early morning hours of August 17, with Roger Daltrey belting out “See Me, Feel Me,” from the now-classic album Tommy just as the sun began to rise. The most memorable moment of the concert for many fans was the closing performance by Jimi Hendrix, who gave a rambling, rocking solo guitar performance of “The Star-Spangled Banner.”
With not enough bathroom facilities and first-aid tents to accommodate such a huge crowd, many described the atmosphere at the festival as chaotic. There were surprisingly few episodes of violence, though one teenager was accidentally run over and killed by a tractor and another died from a drug overdose. A number of musicians performed songs expressing their opposition to the Vietnam War, a sentiment that was enthusiastically shared by the vast majority of the audience. Later, the term “Woodstock Nation” would be used as a general term to describe the youth counterculture of the 1960s.
A 25th anniversary celebration of Woodstock took place in 1994 in Saugerties, New York. Known as Woodstock II, the concert featured Bob Dylan and Crosby, Stills and Nash as well as newer acts such as Nine Inch Nails and Green Day. Held over another rainy, muddy weekend, the event drew an estimated 300,000 people. A major 50th anniversary festival was planned for 2019, but never came to fruition.
