100 Places To See In Your Lifetime-Heaven On Earth#78-The Maldives-"The flattest nation in the world, the 1,190 islands that are the Maldives rise no more than six feet above sea level. The tsunami of 2004 was able to deliver a fierce blow to this cluster of Indian Ocean gems, but they have recovered very well. These once little known pieces of paradise are increasingly accesible to visitors eagar to sample their vivid lagoons and reefs." Oh WOW, I have never heard of this place ever, but LOVE IT!!!!


20 Worst Drinks in America 2010-5. Worst Float
Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream Soda (vanilla ice cream and cola) (large, 28.6 fl oz)
960 calories
40 g fat (25 g saturated, 1.5 g trans)
136 g sugars
Sugar Equivalent: 9.7 Fudgsicle fudge bars

Done right, an ice cream float can be a decent route to indulgence. Go to A&W and you’ll land a medium for fewer than 400 calories. Order it with diet soda and you’ve dropped below 200 calories. So why can’t Baskin-Robbins make even a small float with fewer than 470 calories? Because apparently the chain approaches the art of beverage-crafting as a challenge to squeeze in as much fat and sugar as possible. Whatever you order, plan on splitting it with a friend.
