SWE32 What is a heat stroke?

There's a video on TikTok in which a user takes a jar of seasoning called "Everything But the Bagel" and carefully separates the ingredients into small piles to find out the secret to the recipe.

The video has been viewed almost 2 million times — a sign of just how popular this seasoning mix, made by US company Trader Joe's, has become.

People like to put it on top of bagels and use it in lots of different meals.

However, fans of the mix have been finding out that it's not welcome everywhere in the world.

Signs have been posted at Incheon Airport in Seoul, telling passengers they can't bring jars of the seasoning into the country.

The reason is that one of the ingredients is banned in South Korea.

The mix contains things like sesame seeds, dried garlic, dried onion and salt — but poppy seeds are the problem.

Poppy seeds are banned in South Korea because they are narcotic-related items, according to the airport. The ban is not new but travelers have said that airports are now cracking down on the seasoning mix.

The seeds are also banned in a number of other countries, including Saudi Arabia and Singapore.

The poppy plant is used to make drugs like heroin and morphine, although the seeds don't contain any opiates.

However, the country worries that the seeds could be contaminated by opiates.

In fact, in the US, members of the armed forces have been advised not to eat products containing poppy seeds in case they affect the results of drug tests.

Drug tests can be very sensitive but experts say that it would be almost impossible to eat enough poppy seeds to feel any narcotic effect.

#26 直击韩国梨泰院踩踏事故

What do you do if you see an object in a plastic bag lying around at a bus stop?

Most people would say: "Don't touch it!"

That's very good advice — most of the time.

But an object that was once found in a plastic shopping bag at a bus stop has just sold for $22.3 million at auction.

It was a painting by a great artist from Venice known as Titian. It's called The Rest on the Flight into Egypt, and it has a long and interesting history.

Although it's thought of as a masterpiece, it's one of the artist's smaller paintings. In fact, it's only 46 centimeters high and 63 centimeters wide.

Titian painted it early in the 16th century, when he was 20.

The painting, which depicts Jesus, Mary and Joseph from the Bible, has been owned by a number of rich and famous Europeans, including Austrian emperors.

It was taken from Vienna in 1809 by French soldiers, although it was later returned to the Austrian capital.

Later, it was bought by a British collector, but it was stolen in 1995.

And for seven years it was lost. After a reward of almost $130,000 was offered to anyone who could find the painting, it turned up at a London bus stop.

It had no frame when it was found by a well known art detective, but it was in quite good condition.

It had been expected to make between $19 million and $32 million at auction in London. The final amount was a new record for a Titian painting.

But that still might not be a good enough reason to go looking in plastic bags at bus stops!
