Vitamin B6 is found in a wide variety of foods [1,3,4]. The richest sources of vitamin B6 include fish, beef liver and other organ meats, potatoes and other starchy vegetables, and fruit (other than citrus). In the United States, adults obtain most of their dietary vitamin B6 from fortified cereals, beef, poultry, starchy vegetables, and some non-citrus fruits [1,3,5]. About 75% of vitamin B6 from a mixed diet is bioavailable [1].

The Victims of Communism Memorial is a memorial in Washington, D.C. located at the intersection of Massachusetts and New Jersey Avenues and G Street, NW, two blocks from Union Station and within view of the U.S. Capitol.[1]

The memorial is dedicated "to the more than one hundred million victims of communism". The Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation says the purpose of the memorial is to ensure "that the history of communist tyranny will be taught to future generations."[2]

The Victims of Communism Memorial was dedicated by President George W. Bush on June 12, 2007,[3] the 20th anniversary of President Ronald Reagan's "tear down this wall" speech in front of the Berlin Wall.

I love you. No you don’t.

Yes, I do. I’ve loved you all these years. You’re so sexy. You’re drunk.

That doesn’t change anything. Yes it does. It means you’ve got your beer goggles on.

That’s not really a thing. Yes it is. Scientists have tested it and everything. They discovered that, when you are drunk, you become much less fussy about the sort of face that distracts you.
