Have you seen the photos of the classic cars that populate the major cities of Cuba? Since Cuba has effectively been isolated from western society for almost 50 years, certain features of its society are locked in time, and automobiles are one of them. Today if you visit Havana, for example, you will find the streets are literally loaded with these 1950s vehicles. They are regularly used for personal transportation and even commercial use. Want one? Well, that might be possible soon.
WE never need a good excuse to enjoy a good rum cocktail, but National Rum Day seems like a very convenient reason to crack open a bottle of great rum and enjoy a delicious drink!
Today is National Rum Day and we have some great cocktail recipes courtesy of Zacapa Rum 23. Hailing from Guatemala, Zacapa Rum is a rich and complex rum that has a smooth and delicious flavor profile that lends itself to both sipping neat or on the rocks or mixing in inventive cocktails. We tried it neat and in some traditional mixes like rum and cola and we loved it.
If you want to try something new, however, New York City mixologist Jane Danger has crafted a few tiki-inspired recipes with this delicious rum for your enjoyment:

Accidents happen. The size of a gasoline pump nozzle is smaller than that of a diesel pump nozzle. As a result, if you are distracted, it’s easy to pump gasoline into a diesel car. So what do you do if this happens to you? Let’s take a look at three different scenarios:
1) You essentially filled your diesel car’s tank with gasoline
If this has occurred, then stop filling the car and arrange to have your car towed to a service station and have the tank drained. Don’t try to start the engine. Diesel engines operate at very high compression and having a volatile fuel like gasoline being pumped into the combustion chambers is probably going to damage the engine.
It seems every summer that we are bombarded with stories concerning children that have been left in hot vehicles and have died. In the past two decades, some 750 U.S. children have died in hot vehicles, according to KidsAndCars.org, a nonprofit child safety organization.
Experts explain why it happens. Most of the parents involved aren’t malicious; they are simply busier, under a lot of stress, and often sleep deprived. In virtually all cases, it’s just an accident or slip in judgement. “About half of the time, a parent just forgets the child was in the car,” said Kyran Quinlan, M.D., chair of the Council on Injury, Violence and Poison Prevention for the American Academy of Pediatrics. In other cases, a parent may decide to dash into a store, figuring he/she will be gone just a few minutes, but then gets delayed and returns to the vehicle to find his child has undergone heatstroke.
Golf, despite being known as the pastime of the elite, is one of the most widely watched and participated in sports in the world. It’s prestigious, and expensive – professional players can earn upwards of $10million (£6.4m) in just one season, and club membership is not exactly cheap. Games can take up much of the day, during which players get to drink in the serene surroundings generally associated with a golf course. Here, we take a look at the seven best golf courses in the world, and what it is that makes them so special.
