  • The Seductive Heidi Klum as Mrs Robinson for Carl's Jr. and Hardee's

    The Seductive Heidi Klum as Mrs Robinson for Carl's Jr. and Hardee's

    So Carl's Jr. and Hardee's are launching the Jim Beam Bourbon Burger with a new commercial starring Supermodel Heidi Klum. Klum takes on the iconic role of Mrs. Robinson in the new ad for the Jim Beam Bourbon Burger, inspired by the classic coming-of-age movie The Graduate. Created by Los Angeles- and Amsterdam-based creative agency 72andSunny, the commercial, titled “Mrs. Robinson,” depicts Heidi tempting a naive younger man with this indulgent burger. The commercial will begin airing nationally on March 25, until then a behind the scenes clip is all we have.

    Press via:
    In yet another fast food first, Carl’s Jr.® and Hardee’s® will begin selling burgers with the distinctive taste of a branded, distilled spirit when they introduce the new Jim Beam® Bourbon Burger this week. A mature burger for mature tastes, the Jim Beam Bourbon Burger features rich and tangy sauce flavored with Jim Beam bourbon – the world’s No. 1-selling bourbon – crispy onion straws, two strips of bacon, pepper-Jack cheese, lettuce and tomato, all atop a charbroiled beef patty and served on a sesame seed bun. The Jim Beam Bourbon Burger is available now at all Hardee’s restaurants and at all Carl’s Jr. locations starting tomorrow.

    “Higher-end restaurants have long served menu items flavored with branded spirits but, until now, they had yet to find their way onto fast food menus and we considered it our mission to change that,” said Brad Haley, chief marketing officer for Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s. “The sweet, smoky flavors of Jim Beam bourbon go really well with the great taste of a charbroiled burger, and the folks at Jim Beam were just as excited about the pairing as we were. While there is no residual alcohol in the sauce, that wonderful bourbon taste remains and is enhanced by the smoky flavors of bacon, the spice of pepper-Jack cheese, the salty-crunch of crispy onion straws, and fresh lettuce and tomato. And, who better to help us promote this burger for grown-up tastes than the incomparable Heidi Klum?”

    The Jim Beam Bourbon Burger is available as an entrée for $3.59 or as a combo meal with fries and a drink for $6.09 at Carl’s Jr. and $5.59 at Hardee’s. Prices may vary by location.

    Supermodel Heidi Klum takes on the iconic role of Mrs. Robinson in the new commercial for the Jim Beam Bourbon Burger, inspired by the classic coming-of-age movie The Graduate. Created by Los Angeles- and Amsterdam-based creative agency 72andSunny, the commercial, titled “Mrs. Robinson,” depicts Heidi tempting a naive younger man with this indulgent burger. The commercial will begin airing nationally on March 25.

    “For Carl's Jr. and Hardee's, paying homage to this iconic movie moment is an appropriately fun and irreverent way to introduce the mature taste of bourbon to hungry guys,” said Glenn Cole, founding partner and CCO at 72andSunny. "In casting the new Mrs. Robinson, we hoped to find someone with as much savvy, sophistication and sex appeal as the original Mrs. Robinson. In Heidi Klum, we got a wildly successful producer, businesswoman, TV host and one of the most iconic supermodels of all time. Not a bad day at the office."

    “The Bourbon Burger is no ordinary burger. It was truly the star of this commercial and I was proud to play the supporting role,” said Klum. “I’m not sure who had more touch-ups – me with the hair and lip gloss or the Bourbon Burger with the readjusting of the lettuce, spritzing of the tomatoes and fluffing of the bun.”

  • Do I Have the Swine Flu?

    Do I Have the Swine Flu?
    H1N1

    All About the Swine Flu

    Over the last year, swine flu, or H1N1, has received a lot of press. Though it can be a particularly strong strain of the flu virus, it is important to remember that it is just that: the flu virus. In most cases, this flu is nothing to get too alarmed about. It is, however, important to take precautions to avoid catching any flu, including getting the flu vaccine.

    This year’s regular flu vaccine will not protect you from the Swine Flu, but there is a special vaccine for this strain. Anyone who has a compromised immune system, as well as young children and the elderly, may particularly need to get a flu vaccine.

    The Swine Flu has received so much attention because it is a new strain of flu virus. This is important simply because the fact that it’s new means that our population has little immunity from it, so it spreads more easily from person to person.

    To prevent the spread of swine flu, and other viruses, there are some precautions that all of us should take. The first is to stay home when you’re sick. This helps avoid the spread of viruses. Secondly, cover your sneezes and coughs. And, finally, wash your hands frequently. When you’re not able to wash your hands, hand sanitizers are a good substitute, so long as they are alcohol based.

    Symptoms of the swine flu are not that different than the symptoms of other flu viruses. They include:

    • fever, which is usually high, but unlike seasonal flu, is sometimes absent;
      cough;
    • runny nose or stuffy nose;
    • sore throat;
    • body aches;
    • headache;
    • chills;
    • fatigue or tiredness, which can be extreme;
    • diarrhea and vomiting, sometimes, but more commonly seen than with seasonal flu.

    More serious cases of the swine flu can include a respiratory infection or pneumonia. If you have a bad cold coupled with extreme fatigue and body aches; it’s often wise to assume that it’s the flu and visit your doctor. There are flu medications that, when taken early enough after onset, can shorten the duration of both the swine flu and seasonal flu.

    Flu complications are the most likely in the elderly, the very young, and those with medical problems. These people should be vaccinated, and should seek treatment early. Nearly all of the deaths that have occurred from this year’s swine flu outbreak have been among those who already suffered from ill health.

    If you’re healthy but interact with the public, a vaccine might still be a wise idea; just to ensure you stay well this flu season. The swine flu has not had nearly the impact that was predicted. However, this is likely because most of the population heeded the warnings, got their vaccinations and looked for signs of illness.

    It’s likely that this strain of flu may be here to stay. But, as we develop immunity to it through outbreaks and vaccinations, it should no longer be something for which we have so much concern.

  • Bull Balls Beer Is Here...Seriously | Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout

    Bull Balls Beer Is Here...Seriously | Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout

    What started out as an April Fools joke (video above) is now a reality for Colorado's Wynkoop Brewing Company. The beer maker has officially begun producing beer made will bull testicles; Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout aka Bull Balls Beer.

    Bull Testicle Flavored Beer, Anyone?

    The company says that Rocky Mountain Oysters are arguably Colorado’s most popular local dish. They are sliced by hand and then roasted before being added to the beer, which is also made with Colorado-grown base malts, roasted barley, seven specialty malts, Styrian Goldings hops, and sea salt.

    Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout has a deep brown color and is said to feel slightly viscous, with equally deep flavors of chocolate syrup, Kahlua, and espresso, along with a palpable level of alcohol and a savory umami-like note. It finishes dry and roasted with a fast-fading hop bite. Head brewer Andy Brown said:

    We’ve been making ballsy beer for the past few years and this is great proof of that.

    'Fragments of Humanity: Archaeology in Québec' at Pointe-à-Callière, Montreal

    Fragments of Humanity: Archaeology in Québec is the first major exhibition dedicated entirely to Québec archaeology. Some 350 significant pieces will be featured, celebrating 50 years of archaeological discovery in Québec.

    Many of the pieces are being taken out of storage at the Ministry of Culture and Communications’ (MCC) archaeological reserve for the very first time. Produced by Pointe-à-Callière, in collaboration with the MCC, the exhibition also features objects from about fifteen other lenders including the City of Montréal, Québec City, Pointe-du-Buisson/Musée québécois d’archéologie, the Musée des Ursulines in Trois-Rivières, Avataq Cultural Institute, and Parks Canada.

    The exhibition looks back at the events and ways of life behind fragments of humanity that, each in their own way, reveal various facets of our heritage. Taken out of the ground, these objects summon up stories and, when placed end-to-end, are invaluable material evidence that ultimately tells us about our history. Highlighting the richness and diversity of Québec’s archaeological collections, the exhibition is divided into four thematic sections relating to archaeology: ancient history or prehistoric archaeology, a land of trade and commerce, chronicles of daily life, and subaquatic archaeology.

    Imagining: ancient history

    The first part of the exhibition is dedicated to the era preceding the Europeans’ arrival on Québec land. Through archaeological discoveries, it has been possible to confirm that small groups of men and women had already trod upon Québec soil some 12,000 years ago. Without archaeology, this whole swath of Québec’s history would remain unknown and continue to elicit questions.

    Discovering: a land of trade and commerce

    The next section of the exhibition is devoted to trade between Europeans and Amerindians, and to commercial activities carried out on Québec land beginning in the 16th century. The Basques, Normans, Bretons, and French, drawn by such natural resources as marine mammals and cod, set up facilities along the banks of the St. Lawrence in order to exploit its assets. The artefacts found among the remains at dozens of archaeological sites also underscore the increasing number of trade areas and, starting in the 17th century, the development of local industries. Fishing tools, munitions, weaponry, coins, and other items of trade found on the sites of trading posts, forts, and the king’s stores are concrete examples of the meeting of peoples who socialized and mixed with each other in trade… or in competition.

    Making sense: chronicles of daily life

    Visitors are then invited to take a look at daily life in the 18th and 19th centuries, filling the void left by written documents. The theme is approached from three angles: food and the culinary arts, hygiene, and games and toys. An examination of found objects provides insight into our ancestors’ private lives, allowing us to consider changes in mindsets, practices, and styles. For example, while gatherings around the table among the upper-class in 18th century Québec City and 19th century Montréal are characterized by abundance, objects found in more modest milieus suggest a simpler diet in which soup was very popular!

    Several hygiene items found among the remains—such as chamber pots, lice combs, shaving basins, and toothbrushes—indicate that the practice of “dry bathing” was quite widespread: the elite, while decked out in fine clothing, only gave a cursory cleaning to the visible parts of their bodies. A number of medicine jars, bottles of alcohol, mineral water, and milk of magnesia have also been found, and show that the preparation of home remedies was a common practice. Lastly, evidence of 19th century industrialization can clearly be seen in games and toys that have been found, mainly in more affluent areas.

    Bringing to light: stories from the depths

    Subaquatic archaeology is featured in this exhibition, with the remains from five shipwrecks on display: the Elizabeth and Mary, the Machault, the Auguste, the Empress of Ireland, and the Lady Sherbrooke. Interest in subaquatic archaeology resides in its ability to provide a snapshot of the moment of the wreck, thereby bringing to life tragic experiences, using a precise technique and recognized expertise to recover, stabilize, and preserve the meaning of submerged artefacts. These include arms and munitions, clothing and shoes, jewellery, and moving personal objects evoking the lives of men and women during the months spent on board.

    Exclusive objects

    Several objects in the exhibition are being presented to the public for the first time. Some have even been restored specifically for the exhibition, notably some earthenware jars found in the Basque sites on Petit-Mécatina Island on the Lower North Shore, and objects relating to Amerindian funeral rites. These include the offerings from the first Amerindian grave to be brought to light in Québec during the refurbishment of Champlain Boulevard, in Sillery, in 1966.

    Without a doubt, the highlight of the exhibition is a dugout canoe made out of a single piece of wood, which was found in a lake in the Laurentians in the mid-1980s. Discovered by amateur divers, the 15th century dugout required special care to be properly preserved and to prevent it from deteriorating after having spent 500 years below the water’s surface. There are only about ten surviving prehistoric Amerindian dugout canoes in Québec, but none is in as fine a condition as that on display at Pointe-à-Callière.

    Fragments of Humanity: Archaeology in Québec is an exhibition produced by Pointe-à-Callière, in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture and Communications. This exhibition is funded by the Government of Canada. The Museum also thanks its sponsors, the InterContinental Hotel and La Presse.

    The exhibition will run until January 8th 2017
