#1: ¿La pesadilla de viajar en Combi?

안녕하세요! 오늘은 한국에서만 볼 수 있는 독특한 아이스크림 이름, *엄마는 외계인 (Mom is an Alien)*의 이야기를 소개하려고 합니다. 이 이름의 숨은 이야기를 들어볼까요?

"엄마는 외계인"은 배스킨라빈스에서 가장 인기 있는 초콜릿 아이스크림 중 하나예요. 그런데 원래 이 아이스크림의 국제적인 이름은 Puss in Boots, 즉 "장화 신은 고양이"였습니다. 그렇다면 왜 한국에서는 "엄마는 외계인"으로 이름이 바뀌었을까요?

2000년대 초반, 배스킨라빈스 코리아는 감동적인 광고를 선보였습니다. 
이 광고에서는 아이가 아빠에게 "엄마는 어디 갔어요?"라고 묻는데요, 아빠는 정확한 답을 주기 어려워 밤하늘의 별을 가리키죠. 
이 광고는 많은 한국 사람들에게 큰 감동을 주었고, 결국 이 아이스크림의 이름도 "엄마는 외계인"으로 바뀌게 되었어요.

이 아이스크림은 세 가지 초콜릿 맛—초콜릿 아이스크림, 초콜릿 퍼지, 초콜릿 칩—으로 구성되어 있어요. 달콤하고 진한 맛이지만, 이름은 조금 슬프고도 따뜻한 감정을 떠올리게 하죠. 이렇게 마케팅에 따라 특별한 이야기와 감성을 담아서 한국 만의 아이스크림인 것 같은 독특한 이름이 탄생했네요.

혹시 여러분도 배스킨라빈스에서 [엄마는 외계인]을 먹어본 적이 있나요? 
아니면 다른 특별한 이름을 가진 한국 음식을 알고 있나요? 댓글로 여러분의 경험을 나눠주세요!

SWE33 Keeping cool in the Las Vegas summer heat 怎么防晒降温

Once again, the Mediterranean diet has been named the world's best by US News & World Report.

The diet, which is eaten across the world but is based on foods and recipes from countries around the Mediterranean Sea, has now been at the top of the list for six years.

Its focus on fruit, vegetables, olive oil and fish has helped the Mediterranean diet to the top, according to US News.

A team of experts looked at 24 different diets, putting them in order from best to worst.

There were also a number of different category winners.

The Mediterranean diet was chosen as the best plant-based diet, and, along with the flexitarian diet, it tied as the best for families. It also tied with the DASH diet as the best for healthy bones.

The flexitarian diet encourages people to eat a vegetarian diet most of the time, but still allows some meat.

The DASH diet is meant to help people with high blood pressure. It focuses on fruit, vegetables and whole grains, as well as low-fat products.

The flexitarian and DASH diets also tied for second place on the overall list.

The Mediterranean diet is not exactly the same across all Mediterranean countries, but these countries do share the same basic eating principles.

This low-fat way of eating — which also includes beans and grains, and not much red meat or butter — has been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease and other health problems.

Speaking to CNN, Gretel Schueller from US News said we can all use these ideas to eat a Mediterranean diet wherever we are in the world.
