Free burgers with tattoo for years

A restaurant in California, USA, offers customers free burgers for a year if they have burger tattoos with the company's name placed on their bodies. As part of its 40th anniversary, Farmer Boys restaurant has partnered with two tattoo parlors in Las Vegas to create three different designs. Customers who get tattooed receive free Farmer Boys burgers, according to UPI. Hmm, an American hamburger always goes in.

In this Happy Hour we have two Dutch Jukebox Giants: . Of course we also play some of Jim Steinman, who sadly passed away today. American composer and songwriter Jim Steinman, responsible for major hits by Meat Loaf and Céline Dion, among others, has passed away at the age of 73. Steinman has a large number of musical squatters on his resume. He wrote and produced MeatLoaf's "Paradise by the Dashboard Light", Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart" and "It's all coming back to me now", of which his version with Céline Dion is best known.
Although the songwriter has been in the business for over forty years and has made big hits, he has only won a Grammy Award. Steinman received this in 1997 for his work on Céline Dion's album "Falling into you".
Steinman's death has hit hard in the music world. Céline Dion thinks it's' terrible ':' He was a musical genius, a fantastic producer and lyricist. Being able to work with him is one of the greatest privileges of my career. My thoughts go out to his family and friends. ' Bonnie Tyler has also been touched by the death of her good friend, who she also calls a mentor. Jim wrote and produced some of the most iconic rock songs of all time and it was a great honor for me to record some of them. He was also funny, nice and a very warm person who cared about others. He has made the world a bit more beautiful. I will always be grateful that we worked together. Rest in peace, my friend. '

Municipalities support National Moluccan Monument

This year it will be 70 years ago that the 1st generation Moluccans were transferred to the Netherlands in 1951 with 12 ship transports. On command, about 4000 Moluccan KNIL soldiers and Navy men came to the Netherlands with their families (in total 12,500 persons). At the point of arrival of the 1st transport ship at the Lloydkade in Rotterdam, it is not yet possible to trace a historical event. The National Moluccan Monument Foundation (LMM) is committed to realizing a monument. The monument will be a tribute to this 1st generation Moluccans and their families and in recognition of the shared past. The monument can also serve to continue telling the story of the arrival of Moluccans in the Netherlands to current and future generations. For anyone interested in this history, the foundation wants to offer an opportunity to learn more. They believe that more knowledge of each other's past leads to more understanding. To realize a monument, the LMM foundation has entered into a p

The oldest botanical garden in the Netherlands, the Hortus Botanicus in Leiden, has a wonderful pineapple scent. That means that the Victoria Amazonica is in bloom. With leaves that can grow up to two meters wide, this is the largest water lily in the world and its flowers smell like pineapple. The flower of the Victoria Amazonica is a night bloomer and only blooms in high summer. What is special is that the water lily only blooms for two nights. Rogier de Vugt, cashier of the Leiden Hortus Botanicus, knows everything about the plant. "The first night the flower is white and gives off a strong pineapple smell, which attracts beetles. The second night the flower turns pink and has no smell anymore. The beetles still come to it and are covered with pollen", explains De Vugt. Because the plant has an enormous size, only one can grow in the pond of the Hortus. "The leaves have raised edges, so they can't grow over each other, so they can't get any light anymore. Th
