The new tower's unique, three-sided design ascends in a series of stages, around a supportive central core and boasts total of 160 floors, accessible via a series of double-decker elevators. Its shape is integral to its impressive size. The design is intended to reduce the impact of wind and to reduce the need for a stronger core - allowing for more space - as it ascends.In officially opening the building, officials revealed two facts: the actual height of the tower is 2,716.5 feet tall, and the building's name has been changed to the Burj Khalifa, the name of the ruler of Abu Dhabi.

Remedies to hangover

Following are the remedies that cures hangover

• Berocca puts the vitamin B back in, as well as the big glass of water it's mixed with. It's probably best to do this before you go out
• The heat will sweat out the toxins that are causing all the problems. You'll feel a bit woozy at first but go with it and you'll feel better afterwards
• Reduce the amount of sugar you consume with your alcohol. The forced metabolism of sugar AND alcohol by your body will accelerate the depletion of B vitamins and make the hangover worse.
• Get some exercise. Another reader suggests doing some sort of physical activity
• Drinking pickle juice is a common remedy.
• Replenish your body with fruit juice and water
• All the above have good sleep.
