This document lists and describes the 10 most expensive whiskies in the world. The top whisky is a 1926 Macallan Fine and Rare that sold for $75,000 in 2005. The second most expensive is a Dalmore 62 single malt from 1942 that was consumed by a man who paid $58,000 for the bottle.

Eating fruit is most beneficial when consumed on an empty stomach. Fruit digests quickly and can get blocked by other foods still digesting in the stomach, causing gas, bloating, and the fruit nutrients mixing with spoiled foods. For maximum benefits, eat fruit alone before meals or allow at least 2 hours after a meal before eating fruit. Drinking fresh fruit juices is better than canned, and eating the whole fruit provides more fiber than drinking the juice alone. A 3-day fruit fast can help cleanse and detoxify the body.

Though its construction defies conventional engineering, the identity of the carpenter remains unknown, as does the origin of the wood. The staircase has 33 steps, fueling belief it was a miracle by St. Joseph.

The eagle has the longest lifespan of its species but must make a difficult decision as it ages. When around 40 years old, its talons and beak become unusable for hunting. It is then left with two options: die or go through a 150 day process of renewal. This involves flying to a mountain top and using its beak to remove its old beak and talons. Once new ones have grown, it plucks out its old feathers. After this five month process, the eagle is reborn and lives for another 30 years.

He lived from 1933 to 2010 and his works were exhibited internationally, gaining him recognition as a leading figure in the Shōwa period's nihonga painting movement. Noda's deceptively simple paintings captured the essence of natural subjects through careful observation and a refined sense of composition.

A young girl's crocs shoe was dragged into an escalator's comb plate when she reached the top of the escalator with her parent. Tests were conducted on identical replacement shoes which found that the soft, malleable material of the crocs shoe allowed it to become stuck between the escalator steps when the toe touched the step riser, trapping it before it was pulled into the comb plate. The investigation concluded that soft, rubbery shoes can get caught in the gaps between escalator steps, especially if weight is applied, posing a danger. Improved safety signage was recommended to warn customers.
