Zdravljica

"Zdravljica" (Slovene pronunciation: [zdɾau̯ˈljiːtsa]; English: "A Toast") is a carmen figuratum poem by the 19th-century Romantic Slovene poet France Prešeren, inspired by the ideals of Liberté, égalité, fraternité. It was written in 1844 and published with some changes in 1848. Four years after it was written, Slovenes living within Habsburg Empire interpreted the poem in spirit of the 1848 March Revolution as political promotion of the idea of a united Slovenia. In it, the poet also declares his belief in a free-thinking Slovene and Slavic political awareness. In the late 1980s, it was adopted as the national anthem of Slovenia.

History

The integral version of the poem was first published only after the March Revolution when Austrian censorship was abolished, since the censorship did not allow for the poem to be printed earlier because of its political message. On 26 April 1848, it was published by the Slovene newspaper Kmetijske in rokodelske novice, that was edited by the Slovene conservative political leader Janez Bleiweis.

Toast!

Toast! is a live album by the Canadian comedy music group The Arrogant Worms, which was recorded live in Hugh's Room, Toronto, Ontario, in June 2003 and released the following year. It is different from their previous two live albums in two respects: first, it is made up of all-new material, and second, the live banter in between songs is separated into different tracks. The drumming in the background was performed by professional percussionist Michael Beauclerc.

    Toast is a slice of bread that has been browned by exposure to radiant heat. This browning is the result of a Maillard reaction, altering the flavor of the bread as well as making it firmer so that it is easier to spread toppings on it. Toasting is a common method of making stale bread more palatable. Bread is often toasted using a toaster, an electrical appliance with heating elements. Toaster ovens are also used for toasting bread.

    Toast is commonly eaten with butter or margarine and sweetened toppings such as jam or jelly. Regionally, savoury spreads such as peanut butter or yeast extracts may also be popular. Toast is a common breakfast food. When buttered, toast may also be served as accompaniment to savoury dishes such as soups or stews, or topped with other ingredients such as eggs or baked beans as a light meal. While slices of bread are a commonly toasted food, bagels and English muffins are also toasted. Toast may contain carcinogens caused by the browning process.

    Etymology and history

    Toast (film)

    Toast (2010), a BBC One adaptation broadcast on 30 December 2010 and directed by S. J. Clarkson, is based on the autobiographical novel of the same name by the cookery writer Nigel Slater. The cast includes Freddie Highmore, Helena Bonham Carter, Ken Stott and Oscar Kennedy. The film received a gala at the 2011 Berlin Film Festival. It was released in cinemas on 11 August 2011.

    Plot

    The Slaters of Wolverhampton are plagued with Mrs. Slater's (Victoria Hamilton) chronic debilitating asthma and her cooking limited to what comes in canned goods that she can heat in boiling water. Mr. Alan Slater (Ken Stott) is sick with worry and has a cantankerous personality. Nigel longs for a life that is more than a succession of canned-food dinners made from what can be heated in boiling water. When dinner is burned, the standard substitute of toast is always served. He loves toast, with the crunchy outside giving way to buttery softness inside. Despite her infrequent forays into cooking meals from scratch, his mother's attempts to improve her cooking change nothing before or after her death. His father continues in widowhood with the same cooking style and frequent dinners of toast. The experience brings Nigel to conclude that he is not liked. Nigel learns from a friend that the way in which he could attempt a better relationship with his father is to cook a meal for him.

    A Toast

    by: Rorschach Test

    I wonder why they call this happy hour for surely no one's happy here
    A flock of faces try to hide their pain and sorrow between the vodka, gin and beer
    They're never leaving here.
    For all the time that I have wasted on being wasted all the time
    For every lie I've told and all the lies I've swallowed with just a pinch of salt and lime
    Raise your glasses one more time
    Here's to good friends
    Tonight is kind of special
    This drink I hold will soon be holding me
    It always ends as it begins
    The passing out and coming to
    For all the things you do, here's to me, here's to you.
    Here's to good friends
    For every tarnished reputation
    For every beauty queen turned whore
    For every time I've seen my life flash right before my eyes out of my mouth and on the floor
    And I still come back for more.
    For all the dead left on the highway.
    For every mother left alone.
    For every fool who started out by trying just one sip and wound up drinking methadone.
    At least you're not alone.
    Here's to good friends
    Tonight is nothing special
    This drink I hold will soon be holding me
    It always ends as it begins the passing out and coming to
    For all the things you do
    Here's to me
    Here's to you
