Nassim Nicholas Taleb on drinking

A bunch of drinkers who refuse to be identified as Jonathan Perez (left) and Alexander T. Magno (right) at a now-defunct watering hole in Quezon City.

Another idea from Rory Sutherland: the U.K. guidelines for patients with mild problems coming from alcohol are to reduce the daily consumption to under a certain number of grams of alcohol per day. But the optimal policy is to avoid alcohol three times a week (hence give the liver a lengthy vacation) then drink liberally the remaining four.

  2. Others have
    electricity outlets  https://maxbuy.com.vn/thiet-bi-cong-nghiep/thang-nhom/ useful for juicing up your iPod or your netbook. Some do
    not.

  3. Having said that, only three things  http://bangvanphong.org/danh-muc/bang-tu stay the same: comfort room,
    television, and free bottled water and snacks onboard

  4. Next time
    you climb  http://dungcucamtaynhapkhau.com/danh-muc/may-cat-da-nang/ onboard, don’t count on charging your phone and/or gadget while en
    route. After all, you don’t want to miss that incoming spam text message, even
    while sleeping.

  5. And since cellphones have been  http://thangnhomrut.net/danh-muc/thang-nhom-rut-gon/thang-nikawa-nhat-ban/  brought up: Stewardesses onboard trips –
    stewardesses, yes, that’s what they call themselves – would do well to

  6. ask passengers to put their  http://thangnhomcaocap.com/danh-muc/thang-nhom-rut-gon/thang-nikawa-nhat/ cellphones on silent mode during the trip.
    Hearing cellphones go off can ruin perfectly good B-movies shown onboard

  7. As a result,
    whenever passengers  http://xekeohang.com/danh-muc/xe-day-hang-da-nang need to recline or push the seats back up, they almost
    always require staff assistance.
