CBS News New hope for Prostate Cancer
(CBS) It's very early to tell, but there may be new hope for men being treated for inoperable prostate cancer.
CBS News medical correspondent Dr. Jon LaPook discussed on The Early Show Tuesday a study by the Mayo Clinic, which uses a new kind of immune therapy drug that enables the immune system to fight the cancer.
"Now those immune cells are hopefully able to attack the cancer and shrink it," LaPook said.
The first thing that happens, LaPook explained, is hormone therapy is given, which sends immune cells to the prostate cancer and removes testosterone. Testosterone, LaPook said, is known to fuel prostate cancer.
Early Show co-anchor Harry Smith said the findings are "big-time" stuff, but are very preliminary.
LaPook said the study has only been done on 54 patients, but it's good news because three of the patients had prostate cancer that extended outside the prostate to the bladder.
"They got the therapy," LaPook said. "It came right back in, so it was confined to the prostate, and the surgeon was able to remove the prostate and no evidence of any spread."
The news, Smith remarked, is especially applicable, to people who have inoperable prostate cancer.
LaPook agreed, but advised this is an early study that can have side effects from the immune system. Two of the patients, LaPook said, developed autoimmune colitis -- or an inflamed colon -- that was treated with steroids.
The study has been broken, LaPook reported, but the Mayo Clinic is starting over in the fall with a new study. And if that's successful, LaPook said, the study will go to its next phase.
Except for skin cancer, cancer of the prostate is the most common cancer in American men, according to the National Cancer Institute. More than 186,000 men in the United States are diagnosed with prostate cancer each year, according to NCI.
Last year, according to the Institute, nearly 29,000 men died of prostate cancer

CATEGORIES Action, Casting, Paramount, Newsstand, Comic/Superhero/Geek, Western, Movies, CinematicalNow that the nail-biting tension of waiting to see who would play Captain America is over, watching the rest of the cast fill out will just be trivial fun. We're watching the pieces of the Marvel Universe come together, and the wisest can try to start predicting where all these installments will go. The latest bit of casting news is quite a cool addition to the universe, as THR's Heat Vision reports that The First Avenger: Captain America has a sidekick in Bucky Barnes. He will be played by up-and-comer Sebastian Stan. (You may recognize him from his work in Hot Tub Time Machine.)
Bucky Barnes is no goofy Robin character, though. Young James "Bucky" Buchanan Barnes was an orphan, the son of a soldier killed during a training exercise. He kept hanging around U.S. Army Camp Lehigh until he was adopted as a sort of mascot, and was even given a uniform, although he was too young to enlist just yet. He befriends Private Steve Rogers, discovers he's the Captain America that he eagerly reads about, and demands to accompany him on missions. The military says "What great propaganda!" and happily ships off this young teenager alongside Cap. This ends up having tragic consequences. The loss of Bucky is why no one else in the Marvel Universe digs adopting teenage sidekicks. Of course, as no one ever stays dead, Bucky eventually came back as the Winter Soldier, a Soviet operative. But again, no one stays on the wrong side in the Marvel Universe for very long.
Marvel won't confirm whether Stan will ever get to play the Winter Soldier, but as he's signed for multiple films and we have a Black Widow running around, I think it's a safe bet. But that is a long, long way off. For now, Cap and Bucky will be fighting the good fight in WWII Europe, and trying to defeat the Red Skull. Let's see how they handle that first.

Dog owners told to clean up or face camera crackdown (From Banbury Cake)

Dog owners told to clean up or face camera crackdown
7:40am Monday 15th October 2012 in News By Oliver Evans, Health reporter, also covering Kidlington. Call me on 01865 425271
COVERT CCTV cameras could be installed in parks unless more dog owners clean up after their pets, council bosses have warned.
Banbury Town Council said it had seen a "flood" of complaints about dog fouling in its parks.
Owners face a £50 spot fine if they are caught in the act by Cherwell District Council or town council officers.
But in June it was revealed that just four owners had been fined by the district council between April 2010 and April 2012.
Town councillor Colin Clarke said: "We are cracking down on this, and we will not hesitate to prosecute anyone caught committing an offence.
"If dog fouling continues to be a problem we could install hidden CCTV cameras without further warning. They can clearly identify people up to half-a-mile away and they will be monitored 24/7."
The town council runs parks including People's Park, Princess Diana Park and Spiceball Park.
The council said fouling was a particular issue at the Horton View sports field and Moorfields.

wrongly parked says...
One of the worst areas in Banbury is Bankside park. This park has become very dirty and poorly maintained by the local council and there have also been several members of the public attacked by loose dogs here also.
It seems that Cherwell District council do very little to prevent dogs fouling or attacking people in this park and never patrol it with any dog wardens. Dogs have also been observed running across the busy road and almost causing accidents and fights between dogs is a regular occurance here!
Instead of installing cameras perhaps a more cost effective way would be to actually get their Dog Wardens to do what they are paid to do- and patrol the local parks regularly!!!
Cherwell District Council admit that they have NEVER imposed any fines for dog fouling in this area- so it is no co-incidence that this is related to the ongoing excessive dog mess that is mounting up in Banbury!!!

You can also put bagged poo in a normal bin if no poo-bins are nearby - not ideal but better than not clearing up at all.

The sponsor of a concealed carry bill has already filed a motion to override changes suggested by Gov. Pat Quinn.
Democratic state Rep. Brandon Phelps says he's "disgusted" that the governor used his amendatory veto power Tuesday. Phelps says Quinn overstepped his bounds.
Illinois has to legalize concealed carry by a July 9 court-mandated deadline. Lawmakers sent Quinn a bill but he's suggested changes that forbid guns in establishments that serve alcohol. He also wants to limit gun owners to carrying one weapon and restore local governments' ability to ban assault weapons.
Phelps says lawmakers agreed to the original bill. He accuses Quinn of pandering to Chicago voters.
Lawmakers are widely expected to meet early next week when they could vote on the override. It requires a three-fifths vote.

CATEGORIES Independent, Shorts, Fandom, DIY/Filmmaking, Movies, CinematicalNeil Gaiman, the darling of comic book and fantasy fans everywhere, has been alluding to a short film project he's been working on on Twitter. Apparently, his fans aren't the only ones who can't resist snapping up his every project, because Variety is reporting the British TV channel has already picked up the short film as part of a "12 Days of Christmas" series.
Gaiman, who is very open to fan interaction and uses Twitter both effectively and charmingly, Tweeted in August, "Oh good. I have my star, who was my first (and only) choice. I have a costume designer. We agree about things. This is fun."
The dapper Bill Nighy is the star of Gaiman's short silent film which is "a love story involving two statues and Christmas shoppers." We can, no doubt, expect music from Gaiman's muse and collaborator Amanda Palmer for the soundtrack. it's so cool that he wrote a short silent movie screenplay, got it made, and sold it all in one summer. Such is the power of Neil.
The real question is, when does the rest of the world get to see it? Can we hope that Neil releases the film the same way he released videos of him reading The Graveyard Book to adoring audiences around the world?
So, fan girls and boys, let's hope this holiday season will bring another treat under the tree or Hanukkah bush from the prolific author behind Coraline (the book), American Gods, Stardust (the book), Anansi Boys, and of course, the graphic novel series Sandman. Along with that lump of coal you no doubt deserve.

Markland House
| Click on image titles for larger views.
The Andersons were one of St. Augustine's most important families from the 1820s through the 1920s, and the influence of the family continues to the present day. Dr. Andrew Anderson, his wife Mary, and two daughters, arrived in St. Augustine in 1829 and shortly thereafter purchased a large lot just west of the old colonial town of St. Augustine. Dr. Anderson was active in local affairs and successfully operated an orange grove on his property. Mary Anderson died in 1837, and Dr. Anderson married Clarissa Fairbanks in 1838. From this union came Andrew Anderson, II in 1839. Shortly thereafter Dr. Anderson died in a yellow fever epidemic.
Markland house was under construction when Dr. Anderson passed away, but upon completion it became a prominent landmark on King Street, the entry into St. Augustine from the west.
The second Andrew Anderson also became a physician, although his most noted work was in orange culture and civic works of various kinds. Dr. Anderson donated two of St. Augustine's most visible public monuments: the statue of Ponce de Leon that stands in the plaza and the marble lions that stand at the foot of the Bridge of Lions. In 1885 Dr. Anderson became the confidant of Standard Oil magnate Henry M. Flagler and helped Flagler throughout his ventures in Florida hotels and railroads. Flagler's magnificent Hotel Ponce de Leon was built on the eastern portion of the Anderson property.
As Flagler attempted to turn St. Augustine into the "Winter Newport," Dr. Anderson drastically altered Markland house. Its architecture had originally been very simple: a two-story structure with a gabled roof and porches on both levels of the front and east sides. In 1899-1900, a west wing containing a library and dining room was added, along with a rear addition that primarily housed the kitchen. The second floor gained bedrooms.
While the interior of the original house was (and remained) colonial, the west wing was finished in ornate wood paneled Victorian style. The columns in front, which had been square, became ornate Corinthian.
After the death of Dr. Anderson late in 1924, the house passed to his daughter Clarissa. She and her husband, John Dimick, sold the house to Herbert E. Wolfe in 1939. Mr. Wolfe was a major builder, rancher, and political figure in St. Augustine. In 1968 the Wolfe family sold Markland to Flagler College. It was used briefly as the president's house, and then became a classroom building until the 1980s, when it assumed its present functions.

- Mike Williams, Adrian Clayborn, Tiquan Underwood and Johnthan Banks were all back at practice after missing several days with minor injuries.
- Darrelle Revis was back at practice, covering receivers, per the Bucs' twitter feed. He said that he had no setbacks at all.
- Myron Lewis was on the exercise bike, per Rick Brown. There's no way he's making the roster given the training camp he's had.
- Adrian Clayborn was back at practice, but he wasn't going through live contact drills, per Brown.
- Carl Nicks was participating in 11-on-11s for the first time in training camp, according to Mark Cook.
- Schiano noted that Adrian Clayborn tried to go, but didn't quite feel right. He'll probably be out for a few more days.
Position Battles
- Lawrence Tynes missed three straight field goals, per Tom Krasniqi. He could really lose the starting job to Derek Dimke.
- Cummings thinks Rashaan Melvin is the most impressive young defender in training camp.
- Linebacker/defensive end Markus White had a quality one-on-one period, beating both Donald Penn and Gabe Carimi according to Pewter Report. White has a very long way to go to make the roster, though.
- Mike James was getting some first-team offense work, per JoeBucsFan. It seems he has an excellent grasp on the backup running back job.
Practice notes
- Vincent Jackson had his best day in training camp, per Rick Brown. Everyone seemed to be praising his work today.
- Schiano thought this was one of the best practices the Bucs have had.

KHQ.COM – Australian Sailor, Glenn Ey, alone on his yacht at sea, found himself scared for his life and helpless when an enormous 70-foot wave, in the midst of extremely rough seas, flipped his thirty-six-foot yacht, breaking the mast. He had been en route from Pittwater, Sydney to New South Wales but suddenly found himself stranded hundreds of kilometers off the coast, low on fuel and constantly drifting further and further from shore.
Knowing that his tiny yacht in the middle of the ocean was comparable to a needle in a haystack, he wondered when and if anyone would be able to find him. Luckily, 16 hours after his craft capsized, an unexpected rescue team spotted him from above.
On Tuesday, October 8th, an emergency beacon notified the Australian Maritime Safety Authority at 8:15 a.m. that Ey was in distress. An Air Canada commercial jumbo jet en route from Vancouver to Sydney happened to be the closest aircraft to Ey's estimated location. Captain Andrew Robertson was piloting the flight carrying 270 passengers and 18 crewmembers and was contacted by Australian air traffic control asking to help find the yacht. After confirming the jet had enough fuel he accepted the call to action and without a single complaint from passengers, dropped the plane down from 38,000 feet to 5,000 feet.
With boinoculars provided by a passenger on board and many eyes searching the sea, a crewmember spotted something almost right away. Capt. Robertson then descended to about 3,700 feet, a pretty low level for a 777 to be doing a search and rescue, but getting closer gave them a much better look and sure enough, they had located Ey and his yacht.
A few hours after being spotted, Ey was rescued, returning to Sydney nearly 24 hours later.
Air Canada spokesperson Peter Fitzpatrick reported that everyone on board was extremely happy about the outcome, even though it added an extra 90 minutes to their flight.
NBC news quoted Ey saying, "It's extraordinary. The noise is like an explosion. You are upside down, smashing around inside the boat filling up with water.
"A wave came along, a huge wave, and it just rolled me over and I smashed into the roof of the yacht and then I was back on the table of the yacht. The boat flooded with water. You do think your number's up."
Today, he is still thanking the captain, crew and passengers aboard the jet for possibly saving his life and says he's grateful for the little things.
This story was filed and written by KHQ's Nichole Mischke. Email her at email@example.com
Do you think most passengers today would be just as willing to divert their flight to search for someone lost at sea?

Intel to launch AppUp Center next month
Intel's AppUp Center is move to capitalize on the success of Apple's hugely successful App Store for it's devices. The difference is that Intel's Apps will focus on software that's designed to play well with low power computers with Intel Atom processors, integrated graphics, and 1024 x 600 pixel or lower resolution screens. The company first unveiled the AppUp center in Beta form in January, but Heise reports that the company will remove the beta label at the Game Developers Conference in September. There are currently about 500 apps in the AppUp Center.

Alright. He just didn't have it.
Go Joe Webb! I hope and I think he does have it. Apparently the new coaches think so too.
I hope they give him a good shot and let him play to his strengths. Let him run and give the defences nightmares.
I wouldn't mind drafting another athletic QB to be his back-up. ( one who can run e.g. Newton). That would be a nice one/two punch.

Hi, I'm running into a problem displaying currency values on a Nokia X7 running Symbian Anna. The thousands separator symbol, a comma here in the U.S., a period in Europe, isn't appearing in the string output of QLocale().toString(). It seems to be inserting something like a null or a 127 character instead. This problem doesn't exist with the same code on an N8 running Symbian Anna or ^3. Why should the X7 exhibit this problem? Is there a fix for this?
Looking forward to an answer,

Here's a short but sweet video with Quvenzhané Wallis, done for Time Magazine, in which she talks about her experiences working on Beasts of the Southern Wild.
Today, the magazine posted a series of videos called Great Performances, with several of this year's Oscar nominated actors and actresses; so, of course, there was no way they couldn't do one without Ms. Wallis.
Take a look:
ALM | February 8, 2013 2:17 PM
Her hair is so gorgeous! She is so wise beyond her years. The fact that she was able to give input on everything from the script to the choice of the actor who would play her father speaks volumes.
BluTopaz | February 8, 2013 10:43 AM
I watched a screening of Beasts last night, followed by a Q&A session with director Zeitlin afterwards. He auditioned 4,000 actresses before he found Ms. Wallis, and what cracked me up was he said many other little girls played certain scenes very sweet, angelic, etc. He liked Quevenzhane's bold determination, and she could switch to vulnerable without breaking character. And their collaborative relationship on the film is interesting also, she is like an old soul. Love this kid.
Joycelyn Thomas | February 8, 2013 9:58 AM
My Girl, she's the best!
Bee | February 8, 2013 12:27 AM
My goodness, I just adore this little girl! Every time I see her on something. She is just the cutest and most refreshingly child-like child in Hollywood. I really hope her parents keep her in her right mind and don't let Hollywood eat her alive. She seems like a smart kid with a very special gift.

Followup: A Working Invisibility Cloak?Misc
Here is a followup for you now, on a story that we told you about last May on the plans to create a working invisibility cloak. Newscientisttech.com is reporting that the earlier blueprints for this cloak have now been put into action, and scientists have created an "invisibility cloak that works in the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum..."
The cloak works by steering microwave light around an object, making it appear to an observer as if it were not there at all. Materials that bend light in this way do not exist naturally, so have to be engineered with the necessary optical properties...Smith's cloak works in only two dimensions. It is about the size of a movie reel canister and consists of a series of concentric rings, each housing a set of simple electronic components that distort an electromagnetic field as it passes through."
While this is a breakthrough in technology, there are still many problems to be worked out, and it is not quite like the cloak James left for Harry reports the BBC.
"As an application it's not clear that you're going to get the invisibility that everyone thinks about - as in Harry Potter's cloak, or the Star Trek cloaking device," said co-author David Smith of Duke. Another scientist added:
"You mustn't demand that the cloak be too thin. Despite the hype around Harry Potter, this isn't anything that flaps around in the breeze, it's more like a shed."

I can't be the only one thinking WTF is going on. Before all this we were amongst the top suitors for Deangelo Williams and Ahmad Bradshaw. Now it seems, according to Omar that Deangelo is too expensive for us, and we aren't even being mentioned to Bradshaw. And to make matters worse, Adam Shefter says we are interested in Marion Barber. You have to be kidding me...Marion freaking Barber...he was good maybe 3-4 years ago, but then ago so was LT. Can someone explain what the hell is going on?
Every report we heard during the lockout was Miami was definitely going to add a RB and a QB and our first calls would be to Williams and Bradshaw. The only positive side is that we are still linked to Kyle Orton, but even that seems far from a sure thing. We need to be reminded that we finished 7-9 last year and a couple of rookies is not going to turn this team around along with player development. We need to bring in a QB and a starting RB that has gas left in the tank. Not Marion Freaking Barber...hell I would 100% rather Ronnie or Ricky then Marion "i pull my hamstring when I walk down the stairs" Barber.
Maybe its too early for me to panic, and it probably is, but I can't help to remember that everyone said that there is no time to sit and wait during this year's free agency period bc of the timing and schedule. Teams are already locking up their starters and we are apparently sitting on the sidelines. And you know if Miami spoke to Bradshaw and offered him something, Drew Rosenhaus would leak that info in a heartbeat to bring up the price on the Giants, but he hasn't.
We are about 15 million under the cap, and i swear if we end up with Marion Barber and Vince Young instead of Orton and Bradshaw, i might just jump of the George Washington Bridge....so i'm looking for any info that anyone has that might be able to turn our fortune around...
P.S. the Pat Devlin signing was pretty cool

First hand account of Sunday from a UW band member
Just thought I would post this little excerpt i found on a University of Wisconsin board since you guys always claim to be such class acts and talk about how bad Packer fans are.
OKAY- I just have to get this off of my chest, because I used to be a #1 Bear-hater, but I may have switched sides thanks to yesterday.
I'm in the UW band and every year we travel to a packer game. We traveled to the Viking/Pack game yesterday and everyone was pretty excited to have a good time because the majority of us drank ourselves into a deep and depressed stupor after the UW/Mich ST FB game. The crowd at Lambeau always loves us, and they're so loud, you can barely hear yourself play. It's a crazy fun rush, and we love going.
HOWEVER- from the minute we got off the busses, people in purple taunted us about the loss. as we were waiting to march over to the stadium, plastic horned helmet-clad jerkoffs were screaming in my face about how blew the game yesterday. It was really hard not to beat them over the head with my horn. I march in the very very front of the band, and as some of you know, that means 3/4 of my body is NOT on the field- it's always on the sidelines or over. When we marched down the field to play "on Wisc", the Viking TEAM REFUSED TO MOVE BACK. I hit 4 or 5 players with various parts of my body on the way down, then we turn around and go back to make the "W"- THEY GOT CLOSER OVER THE SIDELINE. Once again I hit players, miost of them with my shoulders! I stopped two steps behind the sideline, and one of the guys leans forward and proceeds to swear and scream at me. Meanwhile, an offensive linemen takes his helmet and pushes a trombone player in the chest.
After the pregame, we were allowed some free roam. It's a special thing to some packer fans when we come, so a lot of us wind up posing in pictures, especially with kids, etc. We're used to getting stopped and asked questions, you know... Well yesterday I was stopped mostly by people in purple and mostly to harass me about the game. A group of four drunk male Vikings fans PICKED ME UP SIDEWAYS and told me they were going to take me home with them. That was a lot scary! A different group said, "Hey baby, your band and school suck and we hope you do too! Can we have your phone number?" The stuff that was being said to me could have been sexual harassment.
At 1/2 time, we started off on the Packers side and of course, got nothing but thumbs up from the guys. I was distracted by Brett Favre- but who wouldn't be? As we walked around the field to go to the holding area, a large group of purples were chanting "Go Michigan".
We won the game and it was a close one, but a W nontheless. As we lined up to do 5th quarter, the Viking staff was cleaning up ad one of the staff members specifically walked over to us and said, "YEAH WELL you blew it yesterday, you idots! HAVE FUN IN TAMPA!"
No joke- I was totally shocked. I have been to 3 packer games with the band- and the Seahawk and Ravens fans AND players NEVER acted this way. I know we share a conference and a border with these Minnesotans, but we were just there to entertain. What a 5'10' band chick could possibly do to a Viking offensive linemen, I have no idea. The band usually has a reputation for being a$$holes, but we didn't even get the opportunity to be a$$holes yesterday!
On the other hand I did have a total riot, and the packer fans are always so wonderful. Lambeau is always a treat, but I will never feel the same about Vikings fans. It made it all worth it to see Brett Favre standing proudly with his hand over his heart during the Anthem as 3 fighter jets screamed across the Green Bay sky. I hope you packer and UW fans travel better than those Viking fans did!purplepride.org: Home of Disillusioned Vikings Fans World-wide

Hey bartime just thought id point out some things this person may have.
First of all does he or she or it (band member) think that some football player would kindly move a side and out of the way for some band members in which most cases that nfl teams dont normally have a band on the field.
Second of all its pretty natural im sure that the rivalry has its ups and downs and that packer fans would do the same thing to us had we had a band at the dome and a bunch of pack fans doing the same thing. After all it is a heated rivalry and things like this happen, dont expect too much kindness from opposing fans in this kind of rivalry.
I mean the band members including the writer doesnt make itself much better with the "where you at moss" sign on their instruments does it?Hupo oe ke kau ana i ka waiupa a ma kou pa o & Hupo na Po o waiupa a

You betchum Red Ryder!
Sure looks better than it did… doesn't it?!
COOL… and you probably used up some leftover paint too! (Yes?)
COOL Bandsaw… is that the 17"er?
We used to have an old refrig. in garage… probably cost us a lot in electricity… One day we got a Offer to Buy from the Edison Co. (our electricity provider)... They would pick it up &Take it away FREE… and they would give us a $50 U.S. Bond (in 10 years or so, would be worth $50)... We jumped at it… Only problem is… I'm not sure if we still have the Bond or not… Don't remember where we put it… Getting Old is the pits!

More than 1,200 Catholic educators gathered September 27-28, 2012, in Greensboro for the North Carolina Catholic Education Conference. Each year, the Diocese of Raleigh and the Diocese of Charlotte conduct conferences for their teachers with a joint conference held every third year, with the Dioceses alternating the hosting of the event. The Diocese of Raleigh will serve as host in 2015.
Bishop Michael Burbidge of the Diocese of Raleigh celebrated the opening Mass for the teachers. In his homily, the Bishop shared with them a message from St. Vincent de Paul to his confreres when the Saint told them, "How fortunate you are to be instruments of the Lord in forming and training students." Bishop Burbidge told the teachers they can serve as the presence and credible witness of Jesus if the students see in them a person of prayer, who lives out each day what they say and what they profess.
Read Bishop Burbidge's homily

After recently reading a interesting article called "Slim Downs Secrets from Women around the World" we were super motivated to take it to the next level with fun recipes to help you lose that holiday weight. Come journey with us around the world for some fun new foods and exercise tips from far off cultures.
1. British: Try 4-6 ounces of salmon (high in omega-3′s and acetylcholine for the brain), one egg, and two slices of whole grain toast (low glycemic carbs with 6-8grams of fiber) with 12-16 ounces of skim milk or water for a filling potent bang for your calories and accelerated weight loss.
2. Indian: Busy American women find it hard to take time out for the extra walking. Instead, skip the elevator and hoof it up and down the stairs, if you can. For extra calorie burning carry a heavy purse or briefcase (switching hands, of course).
3. Chinese: You can use a high powered food blender to blend all sorts of fruits and veggies together raw (to preserve all of the enzymes and nutrients) into a nutritious drink (add some unfiltered apple juice) or soup (add hot chicken broth, beef stock, or soy or coconut milk).
4. Greek: Drizzle olive oil lightly over steamed veggies for added flavor, and drink the wine with the meal to maximize the insulin effect.
5. German: Taters are great for losing weight; it's the toppings that can furp you up. Substitute butter, sour cream, and cheese with chipotle salsa, rosemary seasoned salt and balsamic vinegar, or even low fat chili (ex. Wendy's 9
9 cent menu) to add protein and make it a complete meal. I bake a whole 10 pound bag at a time, then freeze them for later use (5 minutes in the microwave, on 'high').
6. Japanese: Don't let ghrelin turn you into a gremlin. Dont't eat anything heavy after dark, and get at least 8 hours of sleep to keep cortisol (belly fat stress hormone) levels low.
7. Sri Lankan: If you can't get the coconuts easily, look for high quality, low carb protein drinks that contain medium chain triglycerides (MCTs), and use these to substitute one of your meals (preferably the heaviest one) each day.
8. Trinidad: If you have access to a health club, sign up for classes– any classes! Don't use your valuable time to work out alone, if you can help it. "Liming" at the gym will definitely increase your success.
10. Spanish: If you don't have time to dawdle, use Dr. R's Aqua Fiber Diet Trick to pre-stretch your stomach and get that leptin working faster.
11. Finnish: No time for coffee or stains on your lasered pearly whites? Consume a caffeine containing energy drink or fat burner pill, with 16 ounces of water, 30 minutes before you biggest meal.
12. Icelandic: If you can't eat the fish, take 3grams (3000 mg.) of a high quality (ultra-filtered, pharmaceutical grade) with your lunch daily, or preferably, 30-45 minutes before lunch to enhance the appetite suppression effect

Calorie Cleanse Diet Tip from Dr. Raul Rodriguez:
The holidays are a time when we pack in (food) and pack on (fat) more than what we are accustomed to, usually leading to that most common New Year's resolution –" lose some weight." But we have a little known trick that can actually help you lose weight during this time of the year and make you healthier to boot – Dr. Rodriguez' Calorie Cleanse Trick.
Calorie Cleanse is a detoxifying fiber supplement that flushes toxins from your system with a unique combination of the following all natural detoxyfying ingredients:
- Psyllium powder ground from the husk of blond psyllium seeds
- Bentonite clay, or montmorillonite, that comes from volcanic ash
- Black walnut hull powder
- Oat bran powder
- Flaxseed powder
- Prune Powder
- Aloe Vera Powder
- L. Acidophilus
le-style-span" style="color: #008080;">Apple Pectin Powder
Glucomannan Powder
But a great bonus benefit of Calorie Cleanse is that it expands tremendously in your stomach when you take it with 16-20 ounces of water.
How does it work?
The stomach has nerve sensors called baroreceptors that tell your brain when you've had enough to eat. The problem is that the satiety signal usually lags behind our chomping down by about 20 minutes. By drinking 16-20 oz. of water, along with 2-3 Calorie Cleanse capsules, 30 minutes before your biggest meals, you can get a head start on telling your brain when you've had enough to eat.
If you are not accustomed to a high fiber diet, you may find yourself a little distended and tooting tunes for the first week. To minimize this, Dr. Rodriguez recommends starting out with just 1-2 Calorie Cleanse capsules for your first week. You can bump up to 3 capsules 30 minutes before meals during your second week and thereafter.
If you combine Dr. Rodriguez' Calorie Cleanse Trick with a modest, but regular, exercise program, you may find that you've shed quite a few pounds by New Years' Eve. Then, the only resolution you'll have to make is "make more money!" — you would have the "lose some weight " one licked, with better health to boot!

The hCG Diet is a very effective way to lose weight quickly, but it should be done under the supervision of a physician who is well trained in the safe off-label use of this hormone. Off-label use of prescription medications is commonly done for many conditions. It basically means that when the FDA has determined that a drug is safe for human use, a physician, at his or her discretion, can use the medication for other uses where the patient may derive benefit. The following link describes the benefits and warns of possible dangers of the hCG Diet.
By employing careful monitoring and ongoing adjustments, Dr. Rodriguez' hCG Diet can help you safely lose even more than the usual amount of weight cited in this article. As oppos
ed to fasting or simply eating no more than 500 calories, your metabolism does not shut down, and you do not feel famished, suffering hunger pangs. For your safety, Dr. Rodriguez performs a thorough evaluation that includes some blood tests (a Comprehensive Metabolic Profile) and an EKG (electrocardiogram) to make sure that you are healthy enough to undergo the hCG Diet. More importantly, Dr. Rodriguez uses his special Positive Lifestyle Modification techniques to keep you from gaining the weight back when you come off the diet and resume normal healthy eating.

Beware of hCG diet programs and products sold on the internet or promoted outside of a physician's office or supervision.There is a lot of misinformation and ineffective or unsafe products being promoted and sold outside of medical offices. Be sure to voice all questions or concerns to your physician, so that you feel totally comfortable with proceding with this program. To make the most of your consultation, be sure to bring ALL prescription and over-the-counter meds or products with you for your appointment.

A number of the commenters bring up his propensity to "miss his family" when on lesser teams while being able to overcome this when a ring might be in play. Also a number of comments relate to his status as the NBAPA President and what sort of message it sends to younger players if the president can ditch three different teams he doesn't want to play for (while under contract) and sign with another team for their playoff run.
Personally, I thought Cuban was just being a good guy letting him bail on Dallas. It's not like they could have forced him to play and honor his contract, but it was fairly obvious that his wanting to leave coincided with the losing streak. Nevertheless, I felt like Cuban was doing the right thing and handling it the right way in private. Now what little respect I had for Fisher is gone. Wanting out of a situation where you were traded (Jazz and Rockets) is one thing even though you signed a contract with the understanding that that was a possibility. (And let's all hope that the NBAPA President understands NBA contracts.) Skipping out on an open market signing to later join another team that same season is something else.
What do yall think? Poll is below.

Tom Shadyac, the director of "The Nutty Professor," "Liar Liar," "Bruce Almighty" and "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" is just coming out of an odd few years following his last film, "Evan Almighty." After a deadly cycling accident, the director sold his 17,000-square-foot mansion in Pasadena, gave away most of his money and possessions, now lives in a trailer park by choice and has spent the past little while putting together a documentary about these experiences and what he's learned in "I Am."
A trailer for the film has landed and it's a lot of New Age-y mumbo jumbo, with the long-haired Shadyac wasting a lot of interesting people's time by asking them about how humanity can improve, and discovers along the way that we are all connected. Well, isn't that just a big ol' pile of mushy feel-goodery. This looks kind of ridiculous if not totally manipulative (footage from the Tiananmen Square protests? bombings in Vietnam? really?) and the kind of simplistic hucksterism that fake religious types use to hawk their wares on late night television. Sorry Tom, we're not buying into this.
But hey, if the movie touched you in a very special place, then who are we to stop you? It will hit theaters on February 8, 2011. Official synopsis and trailer below (or in HD at Apple).
I AM, a prismatic and probing exploration of our world, what's wrong with it, and what we can do to make it better, represents Tom Shadyac's first foray into non-fiction following a career as one of Hollywood's leading comedy practitioners, with such successful titles as "Ace Ventura," "Liar Liar," and "Bruce Almighty" to his credit. I AM recounts what happened to the filmmaker after a cycling accident left him incapacitated, possibly for good. Though he ultimately recovered, he emerged a changed man. Disillusioned with life on the A-list, he sold his house, moved to a mobile home community, and decided to start life anew. Armed with nothing but his innate curiosity and a camera crew, Shadyac embarks upon a journey to discover how he as an individual, and we as a race, can improve the way we live. Appearing on-screen as character, commentator, guide, and even, at times, guinea pig, Shadyac meets with a variety of thinkers and doers--remarkable men and women from the worlds of science, philosophy, and faith--including such luminaries as David Suzuki, Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Lynne McTaggart, Ray Anderson, John Francis, Coleman Barks, and Marc Ian Barasch. An irrepressible Everyman who asks many questions but offers no easy answers, he takes the audience to places it has never been before, and presents even familiar phenomena in completely new and different ways.

J'ai pour ma part été parcourue de frissons en regardant le 'preview' de ce film, que je vais certainement aller voir. Ça me semble tout à fait inspirant comme documentaire. Merci à l'avance.

Does this remind anyone else of the third part of the "Raaaaaaaandy" documentary where Randy starts becoming interested in Darfur?

a movie supporting and intellectualizing altruism? by the director of ace ventura? jesus fucking christ. i actually burst out loud laughing when i saw noam chomsky.
Deadly? | December 22, 2010 10:59 AM
He's clearly not dead. Did another cyclist die?
Bob | December 22, 2010 10:02 AM
Despite the mushy trailer and p.r., I saw a screening and thought the film had some excellent points--especially for those pursuing the Hollywood Dream. One that sticks with me: in fact money *can* buy you happiness--to a point. But beyond that baseline, the pursuit of money / power / fame brings nothing to one's life but unfulfilled expectations. The pursuit of "happiness," i.e. wealth, is a lie our culture propagates and lots of people believe. There's a reason people who win the lottery have a higher suicide rate than other people. I wonder what would happen if this were required viewing for people in the Biz?
I feared the film would go down the rabbit hole in the way that "What the Bleep Do We Know?" did. But Shadyac managed to keep the thing in the realm of the sensible and sane. I found it to be a worthy, discussion-inducing film.
Edward Davis | December 22, 2010 9:18 AM
You'd think that it wouldn't have to take a near death experience for the director of ACE VENTURA to wake up and think WHAT HAVE I DONE?
Though i suppose discerning moviegoers on the planet can quietly thank the intervening act of god.
zuk | December 22, 2010 8:48 AM
--"after a deadly cycling accident," he went on to give away most of his possessions?
--spent the past little putting together a documentary about these experiences.
You guys are so good at aggregating the daily scoop. I wish you had someone to proof it.

Jennifer Connelly in Allure February 2014: All I Want Is Well-Being and Happiness
She's gearing up for the premiere of her highly anticipated film "Noah" and during promotions, Jennifer Connelly garnered herself a little added exposure by covering the February 2014 issue of Allure magazine.
The 42-year-old actress looked picture perfect in Dolce & Gabbana and Valentino for the Carter Smith-shot front page while opening up about everything from working with her husband Paul Bettany in "Shelter" to the roles she really wants.
Check out a few highlights from Miss Connelly's interview below. For more, be sure to pay a visit to Allure!
On her career:
"Anything that feels like it has integrity, in which one can be really invested, is cathartic. I don't think it has to necessarily be tragic in content, but I have had more experience playing those characters. There are plenty of comedies and light-hearted films with that same substance as well that are just as important and are just as meaningful. I haven't come across many of them in scripts that I've been offered. I'd love to find something that's a bit more light-hearted. That might be a nice change of tempo."
On her main focus:
"The thing that really matters to me is well-being and happiness. Maybe it comes from knowing people who have tortured themselves trying to meet these strangely narrow and rigorous definitions of what our culture thinks is beautiful."
On her children:
"I knew that we were going to be done after number three. That's enough for us. It sounds like I'm bragging terribly but [my son Kai is] well rounded, he's interested in sciences, and he's also a great writer and interested in history and he plays guitar."
On her work in "Shelter":
"One couldn't feel more safe as an actor than knowing that the director's your husband. It's like, Oh, if I really make a fool of myself, I can just say, 'Honey, can you please not put that in the movie?'"

After the Patriots lost yesterday, it has been mentioned in a few places that since Mark Sanchez entered the league in 2009, he has more playoff wins (4) than Tom Brady has had in that same time (3).
I knew it was true, but I go to Tom Brady's Wikipedia page to confirm details and I found some things that made me laugh.
There is info for every postseason except 2010. The year the Jets showed up in Foxboro for the division round and won 28-21.
There is no indication that Brady even played in the postseason in 2010!
One other kinda funny thing is that it has his name listed as Thomas Edward Patrick Brady, then in the section about his personal life says that Bridget Moynahan named their kid, John Edward Thomas, using Brady's first & middle names in reverse order which would actually be Patrick Edward Thomas.
It has always been pretty obvious that Bridget, a woman scorned because he dumped her while she was pregnant for Giselle and knowing how much Tom hates the Jets, gave the kid the John Edward Thomas name so his son's initials would be JET!
I just find it funny how whoever is writing his page would try so hard to cover up the Jets connections that Tom doesn't like!

With the Chinese economy apparently going into a sustained blue funk, India may benefit significantly from lower commodity and crude oil prices, argues Jagannadham Thunuguntla
The remarkable resurgence of China's economy since the 1980s is probably one of the most crucial developments in the recent history of the world's financial architecture. In recent times, China has obviously been the biggest story in the world in terms of economic growth. With its impressive economic development during the past two decades, it has become a major driving force behind the emergence of a multipolar global economy. Even as various commentators debate about the sustainability of the Chinese growth model, no one can deny the impact of its growth on the global map.

Crosby has 30 goals and 52 assists (82 points) in 62 postseason games. Ovechkin has 25 goals and 25 assists (50 points) in 37 games. Here are how many their teams scored in the playoffs over that span:
So I went back and took a gander at Ovi and Crosby production versus the playoffs, and how it compared to the total number of goals their respective teams scored to see how the argument that Ovi lacks the support Crosby enjoys stacks up...
20 (2007-2008)
41 (2008-2009)
22 (2009-2010)
23 (2010-2011)
TOTAL: 106 goals
10 (2006-2007)
61 (2007-2008)
75 (2008-2009)
42 (2009-2010)
TOTAL: 188 goals
So in 37 games, Ovechkin scored or had a hand in 47.12% of all goals the Caps scored in the playoffs. By contrast, Crosby scored or hand a hand in 43.62% of Penguins' playoff goals (leaving aside the 2011 playoffs, of course). In terms of goals scored, 23.5% of the goals the Caps got were off of Ovechkin's stick. Slightly less than 16% of the Penguins' goals during the playoffs came from Crosby.
So my question to you all is, do you find these numbers significant? Does this bolster the case that Ovechkin doesn't have the supporting cast that Crosby does, or are these differences just not enough in your mind?

Just found this article on Yahoo Sports! Detroit Pistons Power Foward Rasheed Wallace says that:"This game ain't basketball anymore, it's entertainment," Wallace said. "It's starting to get like the WWF. There ain't no real wrestling anymore either. It's all fake."
Rasheed usually says a lot of bull, but this time I think he may have a small point. Take the NBA Draft for example. The 2 teams that tanked the season didn't get the first 2 picks, at least one of them should. Could that have been rigged? Should the NBA go to a draft style like the NFL? Also, refs have been betting on multiple games. Whats up with that?
But, the main question is; is the NBA rigged/fake?

Greek wine 101: Doug Frost breaks down his favorites
Greek wines are relatively new to the American market, and with long names like Agiorgitiko and Moschofilero, they can be a little intimidating.
Doug Frost, one of three people in the world who holds the titles of master sommelier and master of wine, calls the arrival of Greek wines a genuine movement.
He says that Greece's turmoil has taken a toll on the wine industry — but now there are finally high-quality wines, especially white wines, that can be bought at relatively low prices.
Despite Greece's hot climate, Frost says that the grapes retain their acidic identity, allowing for crisp, citrusy wines — something he says California winemakers dream of.
We asked the master to break down some of the best ways to enjoy these wines.
Assyrtiko: This grape mainly grows on the island of Santorini and pairs well with foods like mussels and oysters.
"The jolt of acidity is kind of like lemon over your oysters," Frost says.
He adds that there's really nothing like this white wine. He begins to say it's like a high-quality Chablis, but stops himself: "Even that is a silly comparison."
Moschofilero: Don't let the aromatic, floral smell trick you into thinking that this is a sweet wine. Frost recommends serving it as an opener to a meal with appetizers like veggies and simple seafood.
Malagousia: This is a fairly new wine, with aromas of peach and apricot. It's citrusy and tangy and a bit richer in body. Frost recommends having it with grilled scallops and lobster.
Agiorgitiko: Since Greek wines are still relatively unknown in the U.S., Frost says Agiorgitiko is the one people understand the most. Its red cherry flavors make it comparable to a pinot noir. It pairs well with medium-bodied dishes like chicken and mushrooms.
Expert tip
Don't dig deep into your wallets; Greek wines can be bought for $10-$20, which make them fun and easy to explore.
Where to go
Frost says Greek wines are still not the easiest to find at wine shops. In New York City, check out Loi restaurant on the Upper West Side. Maria Loi's Greek restaurant offers an extensive list of wines from all over Greece.
