The Hundred-Foot Journey Inspired Recipies By Chef Bar Arneson

Finding a health professional while you’re abroad can be tricky and you don’t want to see just anyone. The last thing you need is having to find a medical malpractice lawyer because you didn’t choose the right professional for your needs!
A good option is to ask your hotel to recommend a local doctor for you to see. Alternatively, if you are renting an apartment, you could ask your landlord or rental agency. You can also find doctors and hospitals online to check what you need.
For most illnesses, a few days in bed or a course of antibiotics should be enough to get you back on your feet. However, if you have more serious needs, it’s important that you get the help you need.
Call Your Insurer
Buying travel insurance is always a good idea and the sooner you buy your insurance after booking, the better. An insurer may be able to help you cancel your holiday if you fall ill beforehand but they can also help you while you are away. If you need medical help, your insurer should also be able to cover your costs. They may also be able to help you return home if you need to cut your holiday short.
Be Sensible
While you might not be able to avoid getting ill on holiday, you can do plenty to help yourself recover quickly. Staying healthy and safe on holiday is all about being sensible, which is exactly the same thing you need to do when getting better.
Make sure that you get plenty of rest and drink lots of fluids. Now isn’t the time to go out partying or to push yourself into doing lots of tourist activities. It might be hard but you need to rest up if you want to continue your travels later on.

Being the happiest and most beautiful you can be is your right. When you look in the mirror and are satisfied with the reflection, you have a confidence boost, and why shouldn’t you? Especially if you have put in the hours down the gym. However, having the time to work on your image may seem like a luxury. Maybe you have given up the gym to concentrate on something else closer to home, or maybe you always think, I’ll sign up next month. The truth is there is no time like the present, and tomorrow never comes. So, if you want to enhance that natural beauty of yours, you should start today. Not only will it help make you look better, but by concentrating on your so-called vanity, you will improve your mental and physical health as well, and that has to be a plus in anyone’s books. Cast the naysayers aside, and that goes for the cynical little devil in your own head and begin being a little bit more selfish and focus on you. Here are some simple beauty tips to get you started.
Okay, this tip is easier said than done, and if you do suffer from stress, you may be fed up with people telling you to relax. However, even if you have a busy life, you need to take some time out every day to sit alone, be able to do nothing, have no distractions, and focus on you. It need only be for about ten minutes. Perhaps you could disappear up to the bedroom, turn that phone off and lock the door. Maybe you could indulge in a hot bath every now and again. Wherever you choose to go, just close your eyes, breathe deeply and rhythmically in an out and allow all the worrisome thoughts to fade away. This sort of meditation is great because you can just fit it into your life fairly quickly. If you can de-stress, this will help you as stress is a cause of wrinkles.
Drink more water
Water is such an easy way to allow you to become more radiant. All you have to do is drink more of it. There are so many advantages to increasing the amount of water you take. First of all, it is a natural detoxifier, and it helps the organs function correctly. Ridding your body of toxin does wonders for every aspect of your health. It also has a significant effect on the skin. It moisturizes it from within, helping to reduce the signs of aging, including minimizing wrinkles and reducing large pores. Water also helps sufferers of acne. All you have to do is stop drinking pop and swap it for water.
Eat more healthily
Have a good look at your diet? Is it really a diet that says beauty? If you eat a lot of takeaways, T.V dinners, fatty food, sweets and chocolates, none of that is going to help you. Write up a list of healthy food and dinners you can make that will help you. More fruit and vegetables in your diet will add much-needed vitamins and minerals that you may be lacking with a fast-food lifestyle. Swap bad foods for gone ones, and your skin will start to shine. Your body will begin to let go of all the fat you have built up, whether that be internally or externally, and you will simply look and feel so much better as a result of changing your diet.
If anything really bothers you about your appearance, something you may be able to get a little extra help with, why not do it? Seriously start thinking about investing in you. For example, do you have teeth you are embarrassed with? Well, you shouldn’t, you should see a dentist at Brookpointe Dental and have those teeth straightened or whitened or both. Having those teeth done will make you feel like a new person. There is no point in hiding your smile for the rest of your life.
Exercise
If you can add some exercise into your routine, it will help you in a whole range of ways. First of all, it will help you lose weight and tone up. It is a great natural stress and anxiety reliever because it reduces the amount of cortisol in the body as well as adrenaline. It also floods the body with endorphins, which make you feel happier, so it has a three-pronged attack to stress. Not only that, but it also helps the body reduce cholesterol, it’s good for the heart, and it helps prevent you from getting illnesses such as diabetes. It also works wonders for the skin. When you exercise blood rushes to the surface of your skin, vital oxygen and nutrients are carried there too, this helps look after the skin cells. So if you can fit in half an hour a day, you will see the benefits soon. It could be a brisk walk to a from work, or to the corner shop. Instead of parking close to the places you need to go park as far away as possible and pick up a few extra steps. If you can fit in a jog or go to the gym all the better, but you have to start somewhere, so start with walking a few extra steps.
Sleep
If you are regularly not getting enough shut-eye, it won’t take long for this to show on your skin. Unfortunately, the older you are, the worse it is. While you sleep, it where the body heals itself and repairs any damage, so if you are not sleeping properly, the damage will keep getting worse. You should aim for seven to eight hours a night. To ensure a better night’s sleep, don’t drink alcohol in the evening as this acts as a stimulant in small doses. Avoid coffee and tea late at night. Try and meditate if you are a worrier, as this should help you put things into perspective. And if you genuinely are a bit of an insomniac, perhaps it is about time you saw a doctor.

The modern mammal metropolis of Zootopia is a city like no other. Comprised of habitat neighborhoods like ritzy Sahara Square and frigid Tundratown, it’s a melting pot where animals from every environment live together—a place where no matter what you are, from the biggest elephant to the smallest shrew, you can be anything. But when optimistic Officer Judy Hopps (voice of Ginnifer Goodwin) arrives, she discovers that being the first bunny on a police force of big, tough animals isn’t so easy.
Determined to prove herself, she jumps at the opportunity to crack a case, even if it means partnering with a fast-talking, scam-artist fox, Nick Wilde (voice of Jason Bateman), to solve the mystery. Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Zootopia,” a comedy-adventure directed by Byron Howard (“Tangled,” “Bolt”) and Rich Moore (“Wreck-It Ralph,” “The Simpsons”) and co-directed by Jared Bush (“Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero”), opens in theaters on March 4, 2016.

Activision and Autism Speaks are supporting kids and families affected by autism with the release of a limited edition action figure line – the Skylanders Power Blue crew- for Autism Awareness Month.
Leading into World Autism Awareness Day on April 2, Collaboration Brings Attention to Important Cause that Supports Affected Kids and Families around the World
“Autism affects one in every 42 boys and one in 68 children in the U.S. We’re proud to work with Skylanders, an iconic franchise that’s known for bringing joy and magic to kids and families,” said Peter Morton, vice president of Corporate Development at Autism Speaks. “This year’s Light it up Blue campaign for World Autism Awareness Day marks our first alliance with a videogame and toy, and we couldn’t be more excited.”
Available now, the Power Blue crew features blue-and-white-colored Skylanders SuperChargers characters including Splatter Splasher, Trigger Happy, Splat and Gold Rusher – all of which appear in-game as their special colors! These characters will retail at the suggested price of $12.99 (SuperChargers) and $14.99 (vehicles).
Skylanders is supporting Autism in several ways beyond the creation of Power Blue toys:
Supporting an employee-match donation program for Autism Speaks
Encouraging participation in the Autism Speaks Walk on April 2 at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Ca in support of World Autism Awareness Day
Activision is also making donations to non-profits that are making a difference in the autism community
“When my son was diagnosed with autism, I felt very alone. From my first Autism Speaks Walk, I felt the power of community, and this partnership with Skylanders will bring awareness and belonging to kids and families in a unique way,” said Matt Asner, director of Corporate Development, Autism Speaks.
“Since the debut of the franchise, we’ve heard from parents that Skylanders plays a special role in the lives of their kids on the autism spectrum,” says Josh Taub, senior vice president of Skylanders Product Management, Activision. “The entire Skylanders team was deeply committed and proud to bring these special toys to life. If they can put a smile on a child’s face, then we know we’ve done our job right.”
