Former Doctor Who star David Tennant threw on a frock and long wig to play the role of the Virgin Mary in a live nativity performance entitled Nativity 3: Dude, Where's My Donkey? for Absolute Radio in central London.
Tennant was joined by Christian O'Connell, morning host, who dressed up as Joseph and Ian Wright, former professional soccer player, who played the dinosaur.
Wait, what? We don't remember a dinosaur being in the story of Baby Jesus.
Apparently the radio station didn't have a plethora of costume choices and Wright made do with what they had by coming up with a dinosaur/mid-wife role. There was an in-studio audience with listeners even taking part in the performance. Baby Jesus was played by a real live baby "donated" by a listener mum.
At the end of the day, it looked like they had a fun time.

A Facebook photo has Van Halen fans wondering if the group's new record is actually finished.
We all put our pants on one leg at a time. Well, most of us do.
Watch as Van Halen takes the stage in the summer of '78, in front of one of the biggest audiences of its young career.
The pop legend had a history of working with rockers.
This reunion of Van Halen's most commercially successful lineup was contentious from the start.
Joe Satriani says that a new Chickenfoot record will happen.
We spoke with Patrick Simmons about how the Doobie Brothers' successful 1989 reunion happened.

National Teachers Day isn't an official holiday, but it should be. Heck, it should be every day. National Teachers Day is typically recognized on the Tuesday of the first full week of May. While most will only apply this day to traditional teachers, I think anyone in any field of education should be honored.
An AC/DC fan claims to have photographic evidence that Stevie Young has joined the members of the band in Vancouver, where they're working on their next studio album.
Hagar and '5150' producer Mick Jones recently wrote a few songs together.

The study, which appears Dec. 15, 2012, in the Journal of Applied Physiology, is the largest randomized trial to analyze changes in body composition from the three modes of exercise in overweight or obese adults without diabetes.
Aerobic exercise – including walking, running, and swimming – has been proven to be an effective way to lose weight. However, recent guidelines have suggested that resistance training, which includes weight lifting to build and maintain muscle mass, may also help with weight loss by increasing a person's resting metabolic rate. Research has demonstrated health benefits for resistance training, such as improving glucose control, but studies on the effects of resistance training on fat mass have been inconclusive.
"Given that approximately two-thirds of adults in the United States are overweight due to excess body fat, we want to offer clear, evidence-based exercise recommendations that will truly help people lose weight and body fat," said Leslie H. Willis, MS, an exercise physiologist at Duke Medicine and the study's lead author.
Researchers enrolled 234 overweight or obese adults in the study. Participants were randomly assigned to one of three exercise training groups: resistance training (three days per week of weight lifting, three sets per day, 8-12 repetitions per set), aerobic training (approximately 12 miles per week), or aerobic plus resistance training (three days a week, three set per day, 8-12 repetitions per set for resistance training, plus approximately 12 miles per week of aerobic exercise).
The exercise sessions were supervised in order to accurately measure adherence among participants. Data from 119 people who completed the study and had complete body composition data were analyzed to determine the effectiveness of each exercise regimen.
The groups assigned to aerobic training and aerobic plus resistance training lost more weight than those who did just resistance training. The resistance training group actually gained weight due to an increase in lean body mass.
Aerobic exercise was also a more efficient method of exercise for losing body fat. The aerobic exercise group spent an average of 133 minutes a week training and lost weight, while the resistance training group spent approximately 180 minutes exercising a week without shedding pounds.
The combination exercise group, while requiring double the time commitment, provided a mixed result. The regimen helped participants lose weight and fat mass, but did not significantly reduce body mass nor fat mass over aerobic training alone. This group did notice the largest decrease in waist circumference, which may be attributed to the amount of time participants spent exercising.
Resting metabolic rate, which determines how many calories are burned while at rest, was not directly measured in this study. While theories suggest that resistance training can improve resting metabolic rates and therefore aid in weight loss, in this study, resistance training did not significantly decrease fat mass nor body weight irrespective of any change in resting metabolic rate that might have occurred.
"No one type of exercise will be best for every health benefit," Willis added. "However, it might be time to reconsider the conventional wisdom that resistance training alone can induce changes in body mass or fat mass due to an increase in metabolism, as our study found no change."
Duke researchers added that exercise recommendations are age-specific. For older adults experiencing muscle atrophy, studies have found resistance training to be beneficial. However, younger, healthy adults or those looking to lose weight would see better results doing aerobic training."Balancing time commitments against health benefits, our study suggests that aerobic exercise is the best option for reducing fat mass and body mass," said Cris A. Slentz, PhD, a Duke exercise physiologist and study co-author. "It's not that resistance training isn't good for you; it's just not very good at burning fat."
The study was funded with a grant from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, National Institutes of Health (2R01-HL057354).

Among survey respondents was a quote from an appliance industry executive, saying, "Continued growth through beginning of second quarter, with strong backlog and outlook for at least the next three months."
NEW ORDERS. The Electrical Equipment, Appliances & Components sector was one of the 11 industry sectors (out of 18 total tracked by ISM) reporting May growth in new orders.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Thomas Steen returning to work
Thomas Steen is going back to work at city hall.
The councillor for Elmwood-East Kildonan issued a statement this afternoon saying he did not take a leave of absence after he was charged with assault last week.
Steen said he only took a few days off, but never intended it to be a long-term or formal absence.
"I have not taken a leave of absence from my duties as Councillor and the various roles and functions that I perform as City Councillor and have returned to my duties," Steen stated in an email to news media.
The former Winnipeg Jets star allegedly got into a dispute May 1 at the Boston Pizza location on McPhillips Street. A woman known to Steen reported she was assaulted and contacted police, who authorized a charge following a brief investigation.
Steen turned himself in to police on the evening of May 6 and was promptly released on a promise to appear in court, a justice source said in a story detailed first in Wednesday's Free Press.
Steen said, on the advice of his lawyer, he will not comment on the police investigation or the alleged incident.
Staff at Boston Pizza said they were unaware of any assault involving Steen on May 1. Staff said Steen was at the restaurant that night, but staff did not witness an assault.
Steen did not attend the Appeals committee meeting last week. He is a member of the property and development committee, which has a meeting Tuesday morning.
Steen confirmed this afternoon that he will not be attending any police board meetings. Regulations governing the new police board prohibit any police board member under police investigation from attending meetings or participating in any board business.
Steen and Coun. Scott Fielding are the City of Winnipeg representatives on the Winnipeg Police Board.

Udonis Haslem's season might be over
MIAMI -- Heat forward Udonis Haslem may miss the remainder of the regular season after having surgery to repair a torn ligament in his left foot, and free agent Erick Dampier has been signed to help fill the void that creates.
Haslem had surgery Tuesday, the same day Dampier took a physical with the Heat -- the last hurdle before a contract could be signed. Dampier practiced with the Heat that afternoon.
Wallace: Heat Bulk Up With Dampier
Erick Dampier should have been signed by the Heat two months ago but that doesn't mean his arrival isn't coming right on time. Blog
Haslem ruptured the Lisfranc ligament in his foot, which connects arch bones to the ones leading to his toes. His recovery could take more than four months. The Heat may consider applying for an injury exception if the determination is that Haslem's season is over.
Dampier worked out in September for Miami, which decided at that time not to offer him a contract.
To make room for Dampier, the Heat waived guard Jerry Stackhouse, whose contract was not guaranteed.
At 8-6, the Heat entered Tuesday tied for the fourth-best record in the Eastern Conference and the 10th-best mark in the NBA -- not exactly what a team filled with superstars wanted.
And the words Heat president Pat Riley once famously said -- "No rebounds, no rings" -- are resonating again, especially after an embarrassing home loss to Indiana on Monday night.
Since the moment Haslem was carried off in Memphis with his foot injury, Heat opponents have outrebounded Miami 64-44, including 20-7 on the offensive glass and while holding a 27-10 edge in second-chance points. LeBron James (5.4 per game) and Chris Bosh (7.2 per game) are on pace for career-lows in rebounding.
Take away Haslem, and the Heat don't have anyone ranked among the NBA's top 37 rebounders this season.
Those numbers aren't the only red flags, either. Miami ranks last in the league with 33 points in the paint per game, and Dwyane Wade had the worst shooting night of his career in the loss to Indiana -- 1 for 13 from the field, 1 for 5 from the foul line, a three-point performance.
So for some help, at least in the big-man realm, the Heat are turning to a veteran in Dampier who's had interest from Charlotte, Phoenix, Houston, Toronto, Portland and Miami in the past two months alone, yet hasn't been on the court for anyone this season.
For weeks, Dampier had been saying he wanted to be in Miami, and ultimately got that wish. He worked out for Riley and Heat coach Erik Spoelstra in September, but was not offered a contract. When Haslem got hurt, it didn't take long for Dampier to reclaim his spot on Miami's radar screen.
Dampier showed flashes last season with Dallas -- 14 points and 20 rebounds against Houston, 14 points and 18 rebounds against Charlotte, and maybe most notably, a 20-point, 17-rebound effort in Miami last Dec. 11.
But in his last 20 games last season, 12 as a starter, he averaged 3.0 points and 4.9 rebounds, never scoring more than nine points and scoring more than five only twice. Dallas traded him in July to Charlotte, which wiped out the voidable $13 million final season of his deal in a salary-cap move.
The 36-year-old Stackhouse scored 12 points in seven games for Miami, on 3 for 12 shooting. He was in the Heat starting lineup on Saturday in Memphis, a fill-in for Dwyane Wade, who sat that game out with a sprained left wrist.

A new princess has arrived in Queen B's court!
Beyonce and Jay-Z are the proud new parents of daughter Blue Ivy Carter, according to multiple reports.
The 30-year-old superstar welcomed the baby girl via C-section at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City late Saturday night, with her husband by her side, according to ABC's "Good Morning America."
Proud papa Jay-Z reportedly shelled out a whopping $1.3 million to rent out an entire floor of the hospital for Blue's arrival, "GMA" reported.
According to the New York Daily News, a Lenox Hill staffer said Beyonce checked into the hospital under the alias Ingrid Jackson, and employees reportedly covered security cameras and were forced to turn in their cell phones when arriving for their shifts in order to prevent a photo of the baby from being leaked to the public.
Friends of the power couple immediately took to Twitter to offer congratulatory messages.
"Welcome to the world princess Carter! Love Aunty Rih," Rihanna wrote, while Gwyneth Paltrow Tweeted, "Welcome to the world Blue! We love you already."
This is the first child for Beyonce and Jay-Z, who married in 2008.
Reps for the couple were not immediately available for comment on the baby news when contacted by Access Hollywood.

Michael Frayn: In the gardens of the mind
Feted for fiction and drama, Michael Frayn now returns to his roots in philosophy. Boyd Tonkin meets a writer who thinks big, but never loses the human touch
Friday 22 September 2006
The apples on the boughs over our heads look almost ready to drop. A century ago, these fruit-laden trees at the back of Michael Frayn and Claire Tomalin's large walled garden near the Thames could have prompted reflections on Newton's mythical revelation. They might have summoned up the reassuring laws that governed the earth below, the skies above, and the thoughts within the minds of the creatures who made sense of this tangible world. Now, after Einstein, after quantum physics, and after a harvest of revolutions in our grasp of the cosmos and consciousness alike, all that is solid seems to have melted into air. How can we really know that ripe apple will ever hit the turf?
From our table, the famously angular, quizically alert writer gestures over a smooth tract of Surrey lawn to his substantial-looking house. "I think it is striking, when you think about it, how little contact we have at any one instance with the world," he muses. "The eye has to keep moving continuously to have any picture of what's immediately in front of it at the moment. Just looking at this house - that doesn't exist for us at any one instant in time. That is constructed over a period." Blink, and there goes the neighbourhood... and I envisage a Michael Frayn sketch in which new theories of perception wreck the property market in Richmond-upon-Thames overnight.
In English literature, the terrain of philosophical comedy has often been a cramped one. Frayn's work has managed, over four decades, both to command and to extend it. In plays from Alphabetical Order to Copenhagen and Democracy, in novels from The Trick of It to Headlong and Spies, he has blown gales of laughter, intrigue and human perplexity over the shifting landscapes of science and philosophy. Order and chaos, perspective and relativity, randomness and causality: Frayn doesn't so much present versions of such ideas as enact them. Because, in the end, only the perfomance can ever test their worth. As he writes, "there are no rules without the game".
You might even connect the play-within-a-play farce of his global smash Noises Off - a laugh-machine from Sicily to Saskatchewan - to the interest in framing and viewpoint that flows through his career. "Everything is relativistic," he affirms. "There is no general frame of reference. There are particular frames of reference we use for particular purposes." Switch from one to another and the rep disaster in Noises Off becomes a side-splitting pastiche, or the suburban home of Spies an outpost of Nazi espionage.
Around 30 years ago, the former journalist and 1950s Cambridge graduate in philosophy published a synthesis of the ideas that inspired or engaged him in Constructions. Now he returns to the battleground (or chessboard) of high-level speculation with The Human Touch: Our part in the creation of a universe (Faber, £20). For Frayn, that human touch - our frame, our perspective - in effect creates a world that does exist without us, but not in a form we could grasp.
"There is this paradox that lies behind philosophy and science and everything else," he explains, quiet, precise and remarkably sure of his vast intellectual ground. "On the one hand, human beings are plainly very peripheral phenomena in the universe, both in time and space - an unimportant bubble on the surface of the ocean. But on the other hand, without human beings to perceive it from a particular point of view, and to talk and think about it, I don't see what substance the universe has. To me it's a tautology that, if there's no one there to talk about it, there's nothing that can be said. And at the same time one has to be bear in mind that it has this completely objective existence, independent of us."
With lashings of wit to leaven his erudition, a host of funny anecdotes and some exuberantly Fraynian digressions, The Human Touch develops its vision of a world spun from human stories. It bounds across topics that range from the origin of numbers to the nature of scientific "laws", from grammar to dreams. In one of the many glinting images that stud the book like jewels, Frayn describes human consciousness lurking "like an outlaw on the boundary between philosophy and science", one that "slips away across the frontier to elude capture by the forces of law and order from either side". He canters bandit-style over the same borderlands, sneaking into the territory of physicists, linguists or psychologists to rustle prime intellectual steers, leave a mocking message on the fence-post, and ride off chuckling into the sunset.
You might imagine that a playwright and novelist who writes a 500-page volume grappling with the toughest questions in modern thought would sound anxious about its reception from the specialists. True, Frayn does says that he worries that "serious philosophers and serious scientists" will judge his lay enthusiast's knowledge to be "completely inadequate to do what I'm trying to do".
But in Frayn World nothing, and nobody, stays at rest for long. "We think and act on the move. On the move ourselves, in a world that moves around us," as he puts it. Forget the problem of stepping into the same river twice; he wonders if you can even do that once. This is a philosophy of events, not of entities. "People get obsessed with ontology - with what exists and doesn't exist," he says. "And the basic question is: What happens?"
In Frayn's life, rather a lot happens. In this ever-mobile universe, his six-year-old granddaughter Emmy is now on a cinema screen near you. She's offering a bunch of flowers to Helen Mirren's miserable monarch in Stephen Frears's The Queen - a film co-produced by Granada's Andy Harries, who is married to director and writer (and Michael's daughter, the eldest of three) Rebecca Frayn. So "I'm more interested in reviews of that than in knowing what my own reviews are going to be like," admits the proud grandfather, as he prepares for a sudden switch of perspective from our bucolic outdoor seminar to a meeting about finance for Rebecca's film of Spies. "All life," as he writes, "is process, traffic, trade."
The Queen has opened to a sheaf of utter raves. The Human Touch, which treads lightly but sharply on so many academic toes, may well bring more of a mixed bag. In a pre-emptive strike, Frayn quotes the opinion of his old tutor and ongoing mentor, Jonathan Bennett, that the idea of a story-shaped world is "anthropocentrism run amok". And in the London Review of Books, the philosopher Jerry Fodor has already been reduced to grammar-free expostulation by Frayn's insistence on the primacy of coherent fiction over verifiable fact: "Piffle". But then The Human Touch is a creative writer's book about philosophy, one that privileges narrative skills and sensitivities. And, as Frayn says, philosophers' books about writing tend to be dismal efforts. They "have always assumed that the factual use of language was the fundamental use of language". But, in historical terms, "I suspect it's a specialised version of narrative". For him, fiction precedes fact.
You might, from one perspective, read Frayn's book as an apologia for its author's writing life, which soars into challenging abstraction but then swoops down into touching, comic intimacy. For example, it often enlists metaphors taken from the theatre, right up to the idea that we relate to our personality as "an actor in a Mike Leigh play" does to his part. All Frayn's world's a stage. Towards the end, he even refers to the project as a kind of valedictory curtain-call: "Soon I shall close my eyes not temporarily and experimentally, but permanently and in earnest". Yet there's nothing in his manner as we talk to prompt hints of lachrymosity. Instead, he likens the book's birth from years of note-taking not to a testament but to a cold: "You feel this tickling at the back of your throat and at the start you can't think what it is. Then you know, ominously, it's the first symptoms of a cold. It's a bit like that with a book."
The full-blown intellectual sneeze of The Human Touch conveys, at many points, the virus of laughter. On top of its other virtues, it offers an anthology of vintage humorous Frayn. "There's something slightly comic about our entire situation in the world," says its author, before racing off in a headlong dash to make the meeting for which this interview will no doubt make him late. "There is a comic disparity between the scale on which we live and the scale on which the universe lives - and something comic about our pretensions to understand this universe. But that's not to dismiss them."
Born in 1933, Michael Frayn was brought up in Ewell, south London, attended Kingston grammar school and read philosophy at Cambridge. After studying Russian on National Service, he worked for the Manchester Guardian and Observer. His first novel, The Tin Men (1965), was followed by nine others including Sweet Dreams, The Trick of It, the Booker-shortlised Headlong and Spies, winner of both Commonwealth and Whitbread awards. His plays include Alphabetical Order, Clouds, Donkey's Years (currently revived in the West End), Noises Off, the multi-award winning Copenhagen and Democracy, as well as acclaimed translations of Chekhov. The Human Touch is published by Faber this week. Michael Frayn lives with his second wife, the biographer Claire Tomalin, in Petersham, Surrey

Pilot Speaks Out About Chemtrails And HAARP

You do not represent any professional at all. I have only read frustration coming from you. You are NOT credible, chemtards are more credible than you. Yes, you, personally.
Anonymous Coward 4383319
Sorry, but yes...I do represent aviation and science professionals.
You wouldn't know credible if you saw it. You accept nonsense as fact from complete nobodies...just because they agree with you. Not because they have any credibility at all. They certainly are NOT educated in aviation or science.
And I don't give a shit if some restricted moron doesn't find me, personally, credible. No matter what, I have the facts on my side. You have the ignorant fantasy with nothing to back it up, on your side.
Anonymous Coward 25792038
AC465 you should venture beyond the text book, you might understand contrails but you fail to understand there are also chemtrails.
You are telling people that they only believe in them because others think its credible..? That's what you're doing, except your saying chemtrails don't exist at all.
Clearly there are two sides to this, which is why there is conflict between chemtards, and tard-tards. Do you not believe what you see with your own eyes? What do you really rely on that you consider fact that completely discredits chemtrails.
School me on contrails, sure...condensation, always normal, right..
I can type you all of my credibility as well but its only as good as you saying you're representing professional aviation..
Also, what else do you come to godlike for, what else are you interested in on this forum?
Anonymous Coward 4383319
Why venture beyond a text book when I have no reason to?! There isn't ANY evidence to suggest these trails are anything more than contrails.
I see NO evidence that "chemtrails" exist!
I don't give a shit about the other subjects on GLP. I didn't go to school for those subjects. I went to school for aviation. I know you people are spreading ignorant bs as truth. And in the process accusing innocent people of horrible things.
The truth is important to me. I don't give a shit if you can't understand that. I'm also not surprised. There are obviously many things you people are unable to understand.
Anonymous Coward 25792038
Are you kidding me? You don't think that most posters here are also wanting the truth, and post just to be fucking stupid? Ofcourse there isn't proof of chemtrails that's why people always post topics about it and make it an actual subject. There has been enough information, speculation, theories, you name it, to even make it become a subject of discussion, regardless of where those asking understand or not.
Example... chemtrails aside from contrails, making the sky hazy when it should not be, especially after a cold front comes through. Contrails don't, and haven't before, made the sky hazy. That only happens when there is a visual difference in the trail left by whichever airliner. That's just one reason why people begin to notice a difference in the first place.
Anyway.. You are still not convincing anyone even though that is not your goal. I am not convincing anyone that there are chemtrails either. Obviously though, there is a difference in the two, whether or not you read about it in a text book in aviation school.

Katamari Forever, andriasang.com reports that a demo is rolling out on the Japanese PSN tomorrow. While we're sure this information is particularly useful to our Japanese readers, it should also come in handy for those of you who have "friends" with a Japanese PSN account.
For those that have somehow steered clear of the delightful madness that is Katamari Forever, this new entry in the series includes spiffy graphical filters, SIXAXIS support and some new twists on the classic Katamari gameplay. You can read all about it in our recent preview. Or, if you'd rather, you can just listen to some puppets explain it.

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — CalFire issued an alert Wednesday about increased fire danger over the next several days throughout northeastern California.
Starting Wednesday evening, an upper level low will approach the California coast, drawing in monsoonal moisture, which is predicted to trigger dry lightning across the northeastern section of California, according to CalFire.
As the low moves into Nevada on Thursday, it will shift winds to the northeast, creating breezy and dry conditions Thursday night into Friday across most parts of Northern California.
CalFire is increasing staffing and moving fire engines into positions where fire danger is expected to increase.
CBS13 meteorologist Dave Bender said there will be a chance of thunderstorms in the Sacramento area Friday and into the weekend.
CalFire offered the following tips under dangerous weather conditions for fires:
- Any mowing or weed eating should be done before 10 a.m. (and never during extremely dry conditions).
- Never use lawn mowers in dry vegetation.
- Ensure campfires are permitted and, if so, be sure to extinguish them completely when done.
- Never pull your vehicle over in tall dry grass.

WSJ: Android, Along With Web Search, Now Part Of Google Antitrust Probe
The Wall Street Journal is reporting that the FTC's antitrust investigation of Google will extend to Android, in addition to general search:
Six weeks after serving Google with broad subpoenas, FTC lawyers, in conjunction with several state attorneys general, have been asking whether Google prevents smartphone manufacturers that use its Android operating system from using competitors' services, these people said.
They also have inquired whether Google grants preferential placement on its website to its own products, such as Google's "Places" business listings, its "Shopping results" or Google Finance services above most other results.
Android had not previously been mentioned as a potential part of the FTC investigation. As we currently understand it, Android is not part of the European Commission antitrust investigation against Google, which is further along than the US inquiry.
Google's control over Android, given the operating system's now dominant share of the smartphone market, could be a problem for Mountain View. Facts such as those underlying the Skyhook Wireless litigation might wind up hurting Google in any investigation of Android, even if Google is victorious in the Skyhook litigation itself.
I want to caution that it's way to early to come to any conclusions about the outcome of these investigations against Google. But while I believe the US will be hard pressed to prove that Google manipulates web search or has been anti-competitive in that arena, Android may be more vulnerable to such a finding.
