Singapore Sling (1990 film) Singapore Sling: The Man Who Loved a Corpse (Greek: "Singapore Sling: Ο Άνθρωπος που Αγάπησε ένα Πτώμα" , tr. "Singapore Sling: O Anthropos pou Agapise ena Ptoma") is a 1990 Greek black and white dramatic experimental independent underground art film directed by Nikos Nikolaidis and regarded as his magnum opus. Considered a difficult film to label while still managing to develop something of a cult following throughout the years nonetheless, it was shot in a bizarre manner somewhat resembling film noir or neo-noir and black comedy as well as the exploitation, thriller, and crime genres mixed with some elements of eroticism and horror with sex being used as a power game and received a theatrical release in Greece on 6 December 1990. Despite Nikolaidis' career as a film director in his home country which stretches to the early 1960s he was almost entirely unknown outside Greece before the early 1990s and is still less known outside it and it was only with this film, which has immediately achieved cult status, that international fame came to him and it probably still remans the film for which he is best known today, as exemplified by the fact that it was released on DVD by Synapse Films, the only one of Nikolaidis' films to so far receive a home video release in North America. The film was officially selected for screening at the Rimini Film Festival.

Uisce beatha Uisce beatha (] ) is the name for whiskey in Irish. The equivalent in Scottish Gaelic is rendered "uisge-beatha". The word "whisky" (as spelt in Scotland) or "whiskey" (as spelt in Ireland) itself is simply an anglicised version of this phrase, stemming from a mispronunciation of the word "uisce" in Ireland or "uisge" in Scotland. This development may in turn have influenced the Modern Irish word "fuisce" ("whiskey"). The phrase "uisce beatha", literally "water of life", was the name given by Irish monks of the early Middle Ages to distilled alcohol. It is simply a translation of the Latin "aqua vitae".

In Finland, it is called an "Akkuhappo" (Battery acid, with the energy drink used commonly being the Finnish Battery) while in Greece it is called "Υποβρύχιο" (Submarine)(note that the most common definition of "Υποβρύχιο" in Greece is whiskey/vodka with beer, lately the term "Jägerbomb" is more widely understood and accepted).

Silat Silat is a collective word for a class of indigenous martial arts from a geo-cultural area of Southeast Asia encompassing most of the Nusantara, the Indonesian Archipelago, the Malay Archipelago and the entirety of the Malay Peninsula. Originally developed in what are now Indonesia, peninsular Malaysia, south Thailand, and Singapore, it is also traditionally practised in Brunei, central Vietnam, and the southern Philippines. There are hundreds of different styles ("aliran") and schools ("perguruan") but they tend to focus either on strikes, joint manipulation, throws, weaponry, or some combination thereof. Silat is one of the sports included in the Southeast Asian Games and other region-wide competitions. Training halls are overseen by separate national organisations in each of the main countries the art is practised. These are "Ikatan Pencak Silat Indonesia" (IPSI) from Indonesia, "Persekutuan Silat Kebangsaan Malaysia" (PESAKA) from Malaysia, "Persekutuan Silat Brunei Darussalam" (PERSIB) from Brunei and "Persekutuan Silat Singapura" (PERSISI) from Singapore.
