    Bridal Henna Party
    BY NINA CALLAWAY

    Updated 02/21/18


    In many Muslim and Hindu weddings, it is tradition to have a henna party before the wedding. During a henna party, artists use a paste made from dried henna leaves to paint intricate patterns on the hands (and sometimes also the feet) of the bridal party. The pigment of henna is quite dark and stains the skin very easily, leaving little room for error or mistakes as it cannot be washed off quickly. Due to the intricate patterns of the designs and the unforgiving nature of the henna paste, it is imperative for the person who is getting painted to remain very still during the application process.


    Bridal Henna Parties
    In India, the henna painting ceremony is called a Mehndi party, and it is a joyful occasion. Because the bride has to sit still for several hours, her friends might dance and sing songs to entertain her or bring her treats. However, they must try to keep from being too distracting to the bride or to the artist, due to the precision needed to complete intricate designs. Mehndi sessions are a tradition from ancient cultures dating back over five thousand years, where the bride-to-be is given all the secrets of a happy and fruitful marriage as told by her closest female family members and friends.


    Henna parties also happen throughout the eastern Mediterranean, in Morocco, in the Gulf states, and in many expatriate communities throughout the world.

    Bridal henna nights are a popular tradition in North Africa, the Horn of Africa, South East Asia, the Arabian Peninsula, the Near East and South Asia.

    Images and articles such as these, poorly written, give those Countries such a negative light which draws the crowds it was not intended for. No Country wants more violence and more independent rivals in it. None do.

    There's already enough trouble in those places, advertising for new arrivals with these sorts of images only adds fuel to their fire.

    The same applies to The US also. Why not advertise US with this?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fentanyl

    Fentanyl (also spelled fentanil) is an opioid used as a pain medication and together with other medications for anesthesia.[2] Fentanyl is also made illegally and used as a recreational drug, often mixed with heroin or cocaine.[4] It has a rapid onset and effects generally last less than an hour or two.[2] Medically, fentanyl is used by injection, as a patch on the skin, as a nasal spray, or in the mouth.[2]

    Common side effects include vomiting, constipation, sedation, confusion, hallucinations, and injuries related to poor coordination.[2][5]Serious side effects may include decreased breathing (respiratory depression), serotonin syndrome, low blood pressure, addiction, or coma.[2][5] In 2016, more than 20,000 deaths occurred in the United States due to overdoses of fentanyl and fentanyl analogues, half of all reported opioid-related deaths.[6][7] Fentanyl works primarily by activating μ-opioid receptors.[2] It is around 100 times stronger than morphine, and some analogues such as carfentanil are around 10,000 times stronger.[8]

    Fentanyl was first made by Paul Janssen in 1960 and approved for medical use in the United States in 1968.[2][9] In 2015, 1,600 kilograms (3,500 lb) were used in healthcare globally.[10] As of 2017, fentanyl was the most widely used synthetic opioid in medicine.[11]Fentanyl patches for cancer pain are on the WHO List of Essential Medicines, the most effective and safe medicines needed in a health system.[12] For a 100 microgram vial, the average wholesale cost in the developing world is US$0.66 (2015)[13] while in the USA the price is US$0.49 (2017) for that amount.[14]
