Wedding banquets often impose a huge financial burden on young couples in Hong Kong.
And in this time of economic uncertainty‚ realists may prefer a very affordable wedding package served up by McDonald's.
At only 9‚999 Hong Kong dollars or around 12-hundred US dollars couples on a budget can now order wedding events from one of the city's favorite fast food restaurants.
The digits 9999 was chosen because the number is pronounced jou‚ jou‚ jou‚ jou meaning "love‚ forever‚ forever" in Chinese.
Expect pink balloons‚ a cake made using McDonald's favorite hot apple pies as well as a pair of tiny souvenir crystal M pins inside balloon rings.
The wedding package also includes wedding gifts‚ pink invitation cards emblazoned with golden arches as well as decor featuring Ronald McDonald and the Hamburglar.
If you're willing to overspend a little bit go for the extra items such as white balloon gown‚ balloon corsage‚ balloon wedding cake and a large pink McDonald's backdrop.
According to a McDonald's spokesperson‚ the restaurant is a popular dating venue for teenagers and young couples‚ so most couples wouldn't mind holding such events there for memory's sake.
Losing the ability to reach an audience through speech can deal anyone with a devastating blow‚ especially if one is a politician.
That was the worst case scenario for Jorge Rivas of Argentina after his unprecedented stem cell surgery.
The 49-year-old politician was attacked and beaten during a robbery in 2006‚ and was left paralyzed and severely brain-damaged.
After a series of revolutionary and experimental stem cell transplant surgeries conducted by the surgeons of the Havana Cardiology Institute‚ Rivas was able to gradually gain mobility.
First he could learn to move his head‚ then chew food and then emit sounds.
Doctors are surprised at his amazing recovery rate‚ and they are optimistic about his chances of making even greater progress.
With the help of a laptop computer system he is able to communicate once again and even aims to return to politics soon.
A camera detects his eye movement when it scans a keyboard‚ and the system translates the results into spoken Spanish.
According to those who talked to Rivas recently‚ although he lost control of most of his body‚ his wit and intellect are firmly intact.
The Mughal Garden of the Indian Presidential Estate will be open for public viewing for a month starting February 15.
The garden boasts an exquisite combination of flora and fauna which offers general public.
