It said the ceremony, in his home city, was held in “a closed format”, and all those “wishing to say goodbye can visit the Porokhovskoe cemetery”.

Burger King accused of lying about Whopper size
Rivals of the fast-food chain, McDonald’s and Wendy’s, are facing similar legal challenges in the US
Two other major US restaurant chains, McDonald’s and Wendy’s, are currently defending against similar lawsuits in federal court. Meanwhile, Taco Bell, a unit of Yum Brands, was sued in July for selling Crunchwraps and Mexican pizzas that allegedly contain only half as much filling as advertised. Each lawsuit is seeking at least $5 million in damagesBurger King’s bid to dismiss a lawsuit claiming that the US fast-food giant cheated its customers by making its Whopper burger appear larger on menus than it is in reality has been rejected by a judge in a Miami federal court.
The lawsuit, which is the latest in a series of false-advertising disputes that consumers have initiated against fast-food restaurant chains, accuses Burger King of providing a misleading depiction of its Whopper burgers on in-store menu boards.
According to the claim, the restaurant chain shows the Whopper with a meatier patty and ingredients that “overflow over the bun,” making it appear 35% larger with double the meat compared to actual product.
Burger King, owned by Restaurant Brands International, claimed that it’s not required to make burgers that look “exactly like the picture.” However, US District Judge Roy Altman ruled that it was up to jurors to “tell us what reasonable people think.”
At the same time, the judge dismissed claims that Burger King had misled customers with its TV and online advertisements.

“There is no climate emergency,” the Global Climate Intelligence Group (CLINTEL) said in its World Climate Declaration (pdf), made public in August. “Climate science should be less political, while climate policies should be more scientific. Scientists should openly address uncertainties and exaggerations in their predictions of global warming, while politicians should dispassionately count the real costs as well as the imagined benefits of their policy measures.”

Growing Grapes in a Cold Climate
Growing grapes in a cold climate presents a unique set of challenges and rewards. While grapes are incredibly rewarding to grow—both for their delicious taste and the joy they bring to gardening—the varieties that can withstand the severe cold of our local climate are distinct from the types you’d find in places like California. Nevertheless, cold-hardy grapes are viable even in Zone 3, so let’s delve into the nuances of this endeavor.
One of the most rewarding things you can do for the health of your garden and other plants on your property is it starting a compost pile.

How to Put an End to Heartburn, Without Pills?
Heartburn pills like omeprazole (Prilosec) are improperly prescribed in up to 70% of cases; they’re also linked to osteoporosis, infections and nutrient deficiencies
Pepcid (famotidine) is an H2 blocker that can be used to wean off Prilosec and other proton pump inhibitors. It also has very powerful anti-serotonin effects and can be purchased OTC
One of the most common causes of heartburn is insufficient amounts of stomach acid; consuming sauerkraut or cabbage juice is one way to stimulate your body to produce stomach acid
While processed foods should be avoided, consuming a Mediterranean diet, which focuses on fruits, healthy fats, lean meats and vegetables, may be as effective as medications in treating acid reflux symptoms
Ginger tea is beneficial, as ginger accelerates gastric emptying, which, when impaired, contributes to heartburn
Astaxanthin, deglycyrrhizinated licorice, slippery elm and vitamin D can also help relieve heartburn

If broccoli doesn’t top your list of favorites and tends to be overshadowed by more enticing choices, it’s worth noting that this unassuming vegetable holds remarkable potential to enhance your overall health and well-being. In fact, recent research from the Francis Crick Institute reveals that broccoli and its companions, like kale, cauliflower, and cabbage, play a pivotal role in safeguarding the human body against viral lung infections.
