When we think of Westerns, we usually think of a movie shot out in the desert, with baking heat on all sides, sand beneath the feet of the cast, and a few wooden buildings making up the town everybody lives in. "Tombstone" decided to break with that tradition and give us something a little darker, including rainstorms. They probably wish they hadn't bothered.
Making it rain in a movie isn't the easiest thing in the world if the weather doesn't help you out. You need a rigged-up sprinkler system to keep the water flowing. You also need to make sure it covers the whole scene you're recording, which is where the producers of "Tombstone" fell down. You can clearly see in long shots that only the areas closer to the camera are getting rained on, and the road ahead is bone dry.
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.
