Movies: Some movie stars work their celebrity to change the world (The Salt Lake Tribune)
Sunburn Travelers to tropical areas are exposed to intense sunlight and dry conditions. The major cause of sunburn is exposure to ultraviolet B radiation. To block harmful radiation, travelers are advised to use a sunscreen containing para-aminobenzoic acid with a sun protection factor of at least 15. They should also wear long-sleeved, loose (preferably cotton) clothing; a wide-brimmed hat; and lip balm for dry or cracked lips. Infants and the elderly are particularly at risk and should be protected adequately. Persons taking certain medications (eg, sulfonamides, tetracycline, doxycycline, chlorothiazide [Diurigen, Diuril], phenothiazines, furosemide [Lasix], amiodarone hydrochloride [Cordarone], psoralens, nalidixic acid [NegGram], naproxen) may have an exaggerated sunburn response. Sunglasses with wraparound lenses should also be worn to protect the eyes against harmful ultraviolet radiation.

Food-borne illness The risk of traveler's diarrhea in developing countries can be as high as 60%. Contaminated foods not adequately prepared are a common cause of intestinal infections. To help prevent such illnesses, travelers should be encouraged to thoroughly clean and cook all vegetables and meats. Food should be served hot. Peeled fruits are generally safe. However, milk and milk products (eg, cheese, ice cream) that are not pasteurized, as well as cold buffets, salads, and chilled desserts, should be avoided. Consumption of seafood, beef, pork, or sausage that is raw, undercooked, smoked, pickled, or salted can lead to trichinosis or tapeworm infection. Game fish from tropical waters also may cause ciguatera poisoning. Travelers should avoid buying food from street vendors and eating in establishments that have dirty rest rooms.
