Not me. Of course I have not had an ATM card since the 80s. Probably would not know how to use one.

This is definitely a man's breakfast- though I'm not sure what the A1 sauce is doing there besides the plate - hopefully not to ruin the steak. Possibly a garnish......

Declassified documents from the British National Archives have confirmed what was largely an unofficial rumour.

The declassified documents from the British National Archives show that former US President Ronald Reagan had offered British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher a chance for both countries to work on the F-117 stealth fighter programme back in 1986.

The programme was given the code-name Project Moonflower. It is understood that the British Ministry of Defence declined the offer as it was still a ‘black programme’.

A Canadian woman nearly lost her eye after undergoing a dangerous and increasingly popular procedure to permanently color in the whites of her eyes.

Catt Gallinger, a 24-year-old model, had sought out a “sclera tattoo” — a relatively new trend in which people get ink injected into their eyeball to turn the sclera, or the white part of the eyeball, into a different color. Gallinger’s procedure last month went wrong and left purple ink oozing out of her eye, which quickly became swollen, infected and painful.

The trend began in Canada about 10 years ago with the first eyeball tattoo experiments. Luna Cobra, the artist who claims to have pioneered the movement, told Newsweek he no longer thinks the procedures are safe. “I’ve been trying to ban this. I think it’s super important that this becomes illegal,” he said. “This is happening all the time, all over the world.”
What happened to Catt Gallinger?

At the time, Gallinger said she had trusted her boyfriend, a body modification artist, to safely complete the procedure. She already has about 25 tattoos on her body, and has undergone another risky procedure to split her tongue to make it appear forked. So Gallinger said getting a sclera tattoo seemed like the next step.

“Body modification is something that is growing more popular every day. It’s a big part of my life,” she told TIME. “I have a lot of my friends who have had [sclera tattoos] done and have had it done well. It was something I was interested in.”
