Are you an adventurous foodie?
Pig’s Blood Cake from Taiwan
Swine flu has got nothing to do with pigs; it’s official. Pork blood is the prime ingredient of the blood cake and it is mostly eaten with sticky Taiwanese rice. Roadside vendors often serve it on a wooden stick and coat it with fresh peanut powder. It may look like your usual Popsicle but this is not a melt-in-your-mouth sugary delight.

Management
"Excuse me, Sir, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago but I don't know where I am."
The man below replied, "You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude."
"You must be an engineer," said the lady balloonist.
"Yes, I am," replied the man. "But, how did you know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist. "Everything you told me is technically correct, but I've no idea how to make use of your information. The fact is I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me. If anything, you've delayed my trip even more.'
The man below responded, "You must be in management."
"Yes, I am," replied the lady balloonist, "but, how did you know?"
"Simple," said the man, "You don't know where you are, or where you're going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air within. You made a promise, which you've no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you, to solve your problems."
