Alcohol tolerance doesn't mean you've become stronger; it could be a sign of addiction.

by

If you feel fine even after drinking more than before, does that really mean your tolerance has increased? A change where the amount of alcohol needed to feel the same level of intoxication continues to increase does not mean you have a higher tolerance; rather, it could be a sign of addiction known as alcohol tolerance. Alcohol use disorder is not a problem that only appears after work and family life have collapsed. Because increased drinking, memory loss, and failure to control alcohol consumption can occur simultaneously while you continue to go to work and perform your duties, [it] is more important than your outwardly visible life… Read more

How to Distinguish Between Indigestion and Bloating, Easily Confused as Symptoms of Ovarian Cancer

by

If you continue to feel bloated and distended even after taking digestive aids, you are bound to worry whether it is simply indigestion or a change related to ovarian cancer. In particular, if abdominal distension recurs or progressively worsens after it first appears, you should not dismiss it as merely a gastrointestinal issue but must investigate other potential causes.

by

If you feel full after eating only a few spoonfuls of rice, or if you repeatedly experience a sensation of food getting stuck between your throat and chest, can you simply dismiss it as indigestion?

Virtual asset regulation delayed due to failure of Senate procedural vote on the Clarity Act

by

For the market that expected U.S. virtual asset regulations to be settled soon, the results of the U.S. Senate vote on September 16, 2026, are bound to be disconcerting. This is because the institutionalization schedule has been delayed once again as the Clarity Act failed to clear procedural hurdles before even entering the final vote. The key point of this result is not the numbers of 49 votes in favor and 50 against, but the fact that it failed to secure the 60 votes required to continue discussions in the plenary session. What kind of bill is the Clarity Act, and why both parties… Read more

by

Are you wondering why pre-orders and inflated prices have appeared for the iPhone Duo even though official pre-sales in China have not yet begun? The key point is that anticipation prior to actual sales and forecasts of an initial supply shortage have coincided simultaneously. The more than 1.2 million pre-orders confirmed in China as of September 15, 2026, do not represent official orders with completed payments, and listings at 90,000 yuan are asking prices, not actual transaction prices. The Chinese launch schedule and official price, … Read more

by

The Tesla Roadster has received a launch date again after nine years, but does that mean we can really buy the car on October 1st? To start with the conclusion, this date is not the release or customer delivery date, but rather the schedule for unveiling the new Roadster, and it should be distinguished from the date when production and sales begin. On September 12, 2026, Tesla posted a countdown to October 1st on its official website along with the phrase "Go for launch." Following its initial unveiling in 2017 and targeting deliveries in 2020… Read more

Whether September 28 is designated as a temporary public holiday and criteria for the Chuseok substitute public holiday

by

It is easy to assume that since the Chuseok holiday falls on a Saturday, you should take the following Monday, September 28, off as well; however, a substitute holiday is not granted simply because it coincides with a Saturday. Monday, September 28, 2026, is not currently an automatically determined substitute holiday; it will only become a day off if the government separately designates it as a temporary holiday. I will summarize the Chuseok holiday dates, the criteria for substitute holidays, and the possibility of designating a temporary holiday in that order. Please start by clarifying whether you will be working on September 28. The 2026 Chuseok holiday is September 24… Read more

The reason residents protested the failure to provide 300,000 won in livelihood support funds in Uljin County

by

It is easy to misunderstand that the 300,000 won Uljin County livelihood support fund has already been paid and has disappeared; however, in reality, it is a matter where the funds were not executed because the budget proposal pushing for payment before Chuseok was cut by the County Council. The core of the residents' anger lies not in the fact that money was taken away, but in the fact that the support funds they expected to receive were canceled at the last minute. Uljin County had prepared a plan to provide 300,000 won per person to all residents via the Uljin Love Card, and the related supplementary budget amounted to approximately 14.049 billion won. In this article, the payment… Read more
