Sam Lombardo is the lead character in the movie (the role is starred by Matt Dillon). In the movie, Matt's character has a lot of different "mini-roles," including being a boatman, a ladies man, and a guidance counselor. He also got himself in trouble from time to time (by breaking the personal boundaries of various teachers and students), but he didn't do anything illegal (like the alleged rape).
Matt Dillon went on to make a complete career for himself after the movie's end. Toda,y the Lombardo character is just one small part of Matt's resume. His IMDB profile lists The Outsiders, The Flamingo Kid, Singles, and Drugstore Cowboy as just some of the roles he starred. In 2018, Matt is gearing up to play a brilliant serial killer in Lars Von Trier's "The House That Jack Built."
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
