Whether it's undergarments that smooth out bumps and lumps, push up bras that give us a little extra something-something, or tightening body serums; we all have our areas that we don't feel are perfect. As famous etiquette coach and red lipstick wearing Mary Poppins once said, we are all, "practically perfect in every way," however what's wrong with trying to fix the areas that aren't so….flawless?
Usually I charge the big bucks for this, but for you I'm going to give the insider tip because summer is almost here and we could all use a little help. If you want to fake a flawless body then you have two fantastic options:
The Miracle Skin Transformer Body SPF 20 is a high performance body enhancer that will transform the appearance of arms, legs and décolleté instantly. Choose from three different shades that smooth and firm the designated area and uses M3 Complex to create a more even appearance. Best of all, it's non greasy and also serves as a powerful moisturizer and skin rejuvenator!
Second is my personal fav, Prtty Peaushun Skin Tightening Body Lotion. You may have heard gals like Gwyneth Paltrow and celebrity trainer Tracy Anderson gushing about this tinted body lotion that is comparable to a magic wand that makes all your body insecurities disappear. It utilizes subtle light reflecting particles to create a gorgeous, flattering glow and create a sexy and slimmer silhouette. What I love most about it is that it camouflages cellulite and varicose veins like nobody's business! Choose from an assortment of shades that will enhance any tan or if you don't want any color, just the glow then you have that option too!

Shop the entire RODIN olio lusso collection here.
Not only is the skin your body's largest organ – it is an external organ that can demonstrate your age. The effects of aging will always take a toll on your skin, but your habits can dictate the speed of its deterioration. By taking good care of your skin with healthy habits and products like RODIN olio lusso, you can prolong the aging process.
Dryness. As you age, your skin gets drier because your body slowly loses the ability to naturally create moisturizing oils.
Thinning. As the skin loses the fatty layer below the epidermis, it becomes thinner. The slower regeneration of skin cells as you age can also cause thinning. Sun exposure speeds up the thinning process and breaks down the collagen and elastin in your skin.
Sagging. Gravity paired with altered hormone levels and decreased levels of skin fat, elastin and collagen will make your skin sag. Taking care your skin now with healthy habits and a comprehensive skin care routine can help delay sagging.
Age spots. Simply put, age spots (or liver spots) are sun spots. Your body creates them in response to sun exposure to protect the deeper layers of your skin. Prevent their appearance by always wearing a moisturizer with an SPF component and by staying out of the sun.
Wrinkles. In your 30s and 40s, you start to develop wrinkles because of a lifetime of muscle and skin movements. In your 50s, your wrinkles can become more prominent as your skin starts to sag. Smoking and sun exposure speed up the development of wrinkles.

Kevyn Aucoin's Loose Shimmering Powder is out of this world. With an easy to use rollerball head, applying eyeshadow is as easy as a quick coloring session, which also limits the amount of fall out particles that usually drop down on cheekbones. All of the colors are gem shades of Jade (green), Lapis (purple) and more! My favorite aspect about these shadows is the iridescence and illumination they give to the eye area as shown perfectly in the example below. The shade is Lapis by the way, my personal fav! The rollerball application also allows you to brilliantly build up color from a subtle wash of color to a bolder pop.

Shop all of the MOR Fragrances here!
For better or worse, the summer heat amps up your fragrance. Make the warm rays work for you by choosing a scent that's sure to turn heads for the right reasons. With the affordable luxuries that come in a bottle of MOR perfume, you can't go wrong on even the hottest days.
Floral and fruity scents: If you love crisp, clean scents, opt for a fragrance that incorporates citrus notes like grapefruit, mandarin or lemon. Because the strongest elements of citrus evaporate after a short while, look for a perfume that backs up the tangy notes with something floral, such as jasmine, lily of the valley or rose. Try the MOR fragrance Little Luxuries Belladonna Perfume Oil, which pairs Meyer lemons with tulips, white narcissus and Moroccan Rose. As with all perfume oils, remember that a little goes a long way.
Dark, exotic scents: If fruity scents aren't for you, go for a variation on the traditional oceanic notes that are popular during the summer. Think woody and spicy, like sandalwood blended with berries. The perfect exotic MOR perfume oil is Little Luxuries Snow Gardenia. Offering a summer botanical garden in a vial, this perfume blends gardenia, juniper berries and Angelica with vanilla, sandalwood and Ylang Ylang.

Shop the entire Eve Lom collection here.
Summer is the perfect time to tuck away your sweaters, but not your daily skincare routine. Before you place that bottle of moisturizer at the back of your drawer, keep it handy to protect and balance your skin's tone.
If it's hot and muggy out, it's natural to think you don't need to use a moisturizer after washing your face. After all, there's enough moisture in the air to keep your skin hydrated, right? Wrong. When you fail to moisturize your face, even when the humidity outside reaches 100 percent, your skin will try to compensate by producing an excess amount of sebum. Consequently, your skin will look extra oily and dull, and you'll be more prone to breakouts.
Eve Lom offers a solution with its unique Moisturizer + SPF 15, which is suitable for all skin and weather conditions. Your skin easily absorbs the moisturizer while the rosemary leaf and chestnut create a toning effect, giving you a matte look on even the hottest days.
Whenever you use a daytime moisturizer, make sure it contains UV protection. The SPF in Eve Lom moisturizer can help prevent skin cancer and cellular damage, especially when you pair it with other sun-smart techniques. Furthermore, the red, green and white tea extracts are antioxidants that help fight free radicals and prevent premature aging.

Learn more about LIFT LAB products here.
It's never too late to turn back the aging clock. Sun exposure, environmental damage and lifestyle habits can make your skin look older than you like, and the LIFT LAB line of products recently added at b-glowing enhances and repairs both sun-damaged skin and skin with fine lines or wrinkles.
The natural Cell Protection Proteins (CPPs) in LIFT LAB products help protect against environmental factors, including UV rays, and promote the self-regulating activities of your skin cells. Consequently, LIFT LAB products help reduce up to 95 percent of inflammation and irritation caused by harsh environmental factors and UV rays. While improving the natural balance of moisture in your skin by binding to cell membranes and regulating ion transfers, CPPs help skin cells generate their own protection barriers and growth proteins with continued use. The result is healthy skin that's lifted, firmer, smoother and protected.Read More »

Found March 21, 2013 on Fox Sports:
PLAYERS: Dan Wheldon, Dario Franchitti
The city of St. Petersburg honored Dan Wheldon on Thursday with a monument to the late driver on the street circuit in his adopted hometown. The monument at Turn 10 includes bricks from Indianapolis Motor Speedway, stones from his native England and the handprints of his wife and two sons. It's located near the sign marking ''Dan Wheldon Way'' that was dedicated last year. ''Me and the boys were able to make our handprints in the concrete and I am so grateful to be able to make moments like that, just so they are able to know what a great driver and champion Dan was, but more importantly what he meant as a human being and father to us,'' Susie Wheldon said as son Oliver, who turned 2 on Tuesday, played with the microphone at the podium. Wheldon, a two-time Indianapolis 500 winner was killed in the 2011 season finale at Las Vegas. All of the current IndyCar drivers were on hand for the unveiling and many posed for photos with Susie Wheldon after. She's scheduled to wave the green flag for Sunday's season-opening race after skipping the event last year. ''I'm looking forward to a great weekend filled with reflection, but also lots and lots of celebration,'' she said. ''A year from now, 10 years from now, I feel like I'll always be a part of the IndyCar family.'' St. Petersburg Mayor Bill Foster called Wheldon ''our favorite son in auto racing'' and praised the Wheldon family for embracing St. Pete as normal residents. ''Yet Dan was everything but normal,'' Foster said. ''He was an extraordinary father, and extraordinary citizen and an extraordinary driver.'' Dario Franchitti, one of Wheldon's former teammates and a pallbearer at his funeral, spent time with Susie Wheldon and her sons before the unveiling and could see his friend's spirit in his boys. ''The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree with those two, I'll tell you,'' Franchitti said. ''The first thing they both wanted to do was jump on the golf cart and go for a ride around the track. They're clearly their fathers' sons. It's very bittersweet in a sense. It's a nice thing to remember Dan, but also reminds you of the loss of him.''

ISP: Portable scales used to ID overweight trucks
With the break in
the weather, the Indiana State Police Commercial Vehicle Enforcement
Division (CVED) has broken out its portable scales.
Those scales were
deployed on Monday and two overweight semis were taken out of service,
police said.
According to
police, at 11:45 a.m. Trooper Nedal Nabhan spotted two "Michigan train"
semis within 30 minutes of each other westbound on U.S. Highway 20 at Dombey
Road in Portage.
Both appeared to be
overweight, given their pinched trailer tires, police said.
The semis were
stopped and weighed and each determined to be overweight and impounded,
police said.
Truckers Metodi
Cejkov, 39, and Jovan Jofceski, 27, both of Portage, were issued citations
for overweight loads, police said.
Both were driving
for Great American Lines Inc. of Murrysville, Pa.
"CVED Troopers take
overweight violations very seriously," police said.
"Everyone who
drives has experienced dodging potholes. By focusing on overweight semis
they hope to decrease road damage to Indiana roadways due to their
overweight loads."

Statement as issued Thursday by INDOT:
FORT WAYNE, Ind. – The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announces signal improvements to SR 1/Dupont Road at three intersections on the north side of Fort Wayne.
During January 2014, weather permitting, INDOT crews will begin to activate new left-turn signals that provide a flashing yellow arrow for left-turning traffic at SR 1/Dupont Road and Parkview Plaza Drive, Diebold Road and Tonkel Road. The "permissive" flashing yellow arrow allows left-turning traffic to yield the right-of-way to oncoming traffic and pedestrians, and turn when a suitable gap is available.
On SR 1 in this area, drivers have been able to make both "protected" and "permissive" (i.e. "yielding") left turns at these intersections with a steady green arrow, followed by a steady yellow arrow and then a steady green ball, which indicated left-turning traffic could proceed after yielding the right-of-way to oncoming traffic and pedestrians.
With the new flashing yellow arrow (FYA) configuration, drivers will still be able to make protected left turns with a steady green arrow. A steady yellow arrow will follow that phase, and then a steady red arrow for a short time segment (1-2 seconds). At that point, a flashing yellow arrow will allow left-turning traffic to proceed, while the opposing through traffic has a green light, after yielding the right-of-way to pedestrians and oncoming traffic. The FYA will be followed by a steady yellow arrow and then a steady red arrow again.
The steady yellow left-turn arrow retains its standard meaning that the signal is about to change to a steady red arrow, and drivers should prepare to stop, or, if they have already entered the intersection, they should complete the left turn when oncoming traffic has cleared.
National research has shown that the FYA is more intuitive for left-turning drivers in a "protected-permissive" signal situation than a steady green ball, resulting in fewer crashes and moving traffic more efficiently. These types of signals are only used on intersection approaches with dedicated left-turn lanes, which clear the way for through and right-turning traffic.
The new signal offers operational benefits that are not possible with the current five-section (also known as "doghouse") left turn signals. For example, in some locations, the signal's left turn phase could operate as "protected only" during certain hours of the day, and then as "protected-permissive" during other hours of the day, depending on traffic flows. The flashing yellow arrow may also be displayed before and/or after the protected green and solid yellow left turn arrows to improve traffic flow.
The FYA signals are being introduced nationwide, and have been adopted by most states, including neighboring Ohio, Michigan and Illinois.
In the future, INDOT plans to replace most of its five-section or "doghouse" left-turn signals with the new four-section signals featuring a flashing yellow arrow. The protected left turn with steady green and steady yellow arrows will continue to be used when it is difficult to find or judge gaps in oncoming through traffic.
A press conference held at the INDOT Fort Wayne District Traffic Annex building earlier today, December 12, 2013, introduced the phases of these FYA signals, using actual signal heads in a demonstration.
More information about the flashing yellow left-turn arrow is available on INDOT's web site at www.in.gov/indot/3202.htm.
NOTE: A video on INDOT's YouTube channel (IndianaDOT) explains the flashing yellow arrow phases: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmSfBsVKs7o
The Elkhart County Highway Department has activated a flashing yellow arrow signal at the intersection of CR 17 and CR 18. Some "B" roll footage of this signal working is available as an unlisted video here:

text: World View: Turkey Warns Israel Against 'Dirty Bargaining' over Flotilla Compensation Print article Send a Tip by John J. Xenakis 15 Apr 2013 post a comment This morning's key headlines from GenerationalDynamics.com Turkey warns Israel against 'dirty bargaining' over flotilla compensation Palestinian Prime Minister Salaam Fayyad resigns Cyprus offers citizenship to wealthy Russian oligarchs North Korea keeps the world guessing Turkey warns Israel against 'dirty bargaining' over flotilla compensation People gather in front of the Mavi Marmara boat where pictures of the Israeli raid's victims are shown. (Hurriyet) Israel apologized last month for the deaths of nine Turkish citizens on May 31, 2010, in a confrontation between Israel's navy and the boat Mavi Marmara in a flotilla headed for Gaza in violation of Israel's Gaza blockade. However, still to be settled is the question of how much money Israel is going to have to pay to the families of the nine victims. Rumors are that Israel will offer $100,000 for each victim. Talks will begin next week, and they're not expected to be easy. According to a Turkish diplomatic source: "Israel should perfectly know that this is not a process of bargaining. Compensation talks should not be turned into horse trading or dirty bargaining. We want to solve this issue in next week's talks." Turkey's prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan is maintaining a hard line against Israel despite the apology. He announced on Sunday that he will stick to his plan to visit Gaza in May, and he insisted that Turkey will not send an ambassador to Israel unless Israel lifts the blockade of Gaza. Israel apologized to Turkey last month because of the encouragement of American president Barack Obama during his visit last month, because he wanted Turkey and Israel to cooperate on issues involving Syria and Iran. Hurriyet (Ankara) and Zaman (Istanbul) Palestinian Prime Minister Salaam Fayyad resigns The resignation of Palestinian Prime Minister Salaam Fayyad is being described by analysts as a major blow to the Obama administration's plans to revive the "peace process," especially since Secretary of State John Kerry met with Fayyad in Ramallah two weeks ago, and asked him NOT to resign. I can't imagine what those analysts are talking about, since the "peace process" has been dead as a door nail for years, and is less likely to be revived than Hugo Chavez. Salaam Fayyad was educated in the U.S. as an economist, and he's worked for World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). He's credited with developing the financial stability required for the creation of the state of Palestine, but he's also been heavily criticized because of the weakening Palestinian economy in the West Bank. His resignation is said to be the result of bitter disagreements with Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas. Fayyad is also extremely dislike by the leaders of Hamas, who accuse him of being dupes for Israel, despite his many denunciations of Israeli settlements in the West Bank. AFP and Bloomberg Cyprus offers citizenship to wealthy Russian oligarchs In an attempt to save its financial services industry (called an "illegal tax haven" industry by some), Cyprus is looking for ways to attract investors again. And it's offering fast-track Cyprus citizenship to any foreigner who lost 3 million euros or more as a result of the 60% confiscation of depositors' accounts. And with Cyprus citizenship automatically comes European Union citizenship. It's hoped that the offer will be particularly appealing to Russian oligarchs who lost a lot of money in the bailout confiscation, and that they'll be tempted to try again. Cyprus has run a "citizenship by investment" program for years, open to any foreigner who invests 10 million euros in Cyprus, but now those requirements are going to be reduced considerably. Russia Today and Reuters North Korea keeps the world guessing Monday, April 15, is the birthday of North Korea's founder Kim Il-sung, and all eyes are on North Korea to see what it will do to celebrate. South Korean intelligence says the North has had two medium-range missiles primed and ready to fire for nearly a week, and many observers believe that Monday will be the likely launch date.

EMA Pharmacovigilance Legislation to Take Effect; New Q&A Document Offers Practical Guidance to Industry
In July 2012, new pharmacovigilance legislation will come into effect across the EU as a result of changes adopted in 2010, specifically EU Regulation No. 1235 and Directive 84.

Kansas State Law Summary
Posted on January 2, 2012
Last updated December 9, 2013
In our publication 2013 State Scorecard: Why Gun Laws Matter, the Law Center ranked each state based on a review of state laws in 30 different firearms-related policy areas. Kansas ranked 44th out of 50 – having some of the weakest gun laws in the country.
In 2013, the Kansas legislature enacted new laws that relate to firearms. These new laws are described below.
Laws that Weaken Gun Regulation
|Allows K-12 schools, universities, and community colleges to authorize employees to carry firearms in school buildings; makes concealed weapon permit records confidential, allows concealed weapon permit holders to carry in any building that does not provide adequate notice, as specified, that firearms are prohibited.
|Prohibits any state government money from being used to publicize "gun control" issues or to fund a grant recipient or contractor for activities related to lobbying on the issue of gun control.
|Provides automatic concealed weapon permit reciprocity with all other states.
|Makes concealed weapon permit information confidential.
|Seeks to nullify federal law.
Among other things, Kansas requires certain mentally ill individuals to be reported to the federal database used for firearm purchaser background checks.
Kansas law does not, however:
- Require a background check prior to the transfer of a firearm between unlicensed individuals;
- Require firearms dealers to obtain a state license;
- Regulate the transfer or possession of assault weapons, 50 caliber rifles, or large capacity ammunition magazines;
- Require gun owners to obtain a license, register their firearms, or report lost or stolen firearms;
- Impose a waiting period prior to purchase of a firearm;
- Limit the number of firearms that may be purchased at one time;
- Regulate unsafe handguns ("junk guns" or "Saturday night specials");
- Significantly regulate ammunition;
- Allow local governments to regulate firearms; or
- Give local law enforcement discretion to deny a concealed handgun permit.
In 2010 Kansas had the 23rd highest number of gun deaths per capita among the states. Iowa had the 21st highest rate of crime gun exports among the states in 2009–meaning that crime guns originally sold in Iowa were recovered after being used in crimes in other states at the 13 lowest rate among the states, Based on data published by Mayors Against Illegal Guns, in 2009, Kansas supplied more than twice as many crime guns to other states per capita that it imported from other states.

Paul Risker chats with Wrong Turn 6 actress Roxanne Pallett…
Ahead of the home entertainment release of the sixth instalment of the Wrong Turn franchise, Flickering Myth had an opportunity to speak with actress Roxanne Pallett.
In a conversation that took us from incomplete movies on a Saturday night to taking a perilous Wrong Turn, Roxanne took us behind the scenes of her craft as she reflected on the art of performance on stage and screen.
Why a career as an actress? Was there that one inspirational moment?
I have never had a defining moment – it was who I was from day one. I was never one of those kids that had to sit down with a teacher and discuss what they could be.
I was an only child, and so I was a constant exhibitionist. I was always pretending to be dead at the bottom of the stairs, and my »

In the new Canadian horror movie Septic Man, Jason David Brown plays a sewage worker who falls into a septic tank and gradually mutates into a monstrous beastie. Brown won Best Actor in a Horror Film award at last year's Fantastic Fest genre festival for his performance—but this gross-out film is not one to watch while you're eating. Then again…
"At Fantastic Fest they actually handed out chocolate pudding in the middle of the screening," recalls Septic Man director Jesse Thomas Cook. "It was a funny touch to see people eating chocolate pudding while Septic Man was knee-deep in the sewage. »

The upcoming Danger Mouse reboot may feature female characters who were previously male.
The move is said to fit into the BBC's plans to make female characters more prominent in children's shows, reports The Guardian.
Cbbc will air 52 new episodes of the classic 1980s cartoon in 2015. The original series featured very few female characters.
"Characters that might have been male in the past will now be female characters," Cbbc controller Cheryl Taylor said.
However, she did not specify which characters could see gender swaps.
CBeebies controller Kay Benbow said of the move: "I still feel the default tendency is for there to be a male lead or a male presenter."
The new series will see Danger Mouse and Penfold still stationed at their iconic red post box. However, it will be filled with modern technology, including the title character's eye patch being replaced by a multi-function 'iPatch'.

It's been a very quick turnaround of news for BBC's reboot to Danger Mouse. Following the announcement of the new show we were given a promotional image and now it seems we're going to see some character changes for this new vision.
In an interview with British newspaper The Guardian, Cbbc Controller Cheyrl Taylor said that, "characters that might have been male in the past will now be female characters".
Kay Benbow, controller of sister station CBeebies was quoted as saying, "I still feel the default tendency is for there to be a male lead or a male presenter". She went on to say how they were looking to commission more shows with female lead characters and with their name in the show title in an effort to make females more prominent in their programming.
There is no news on which character(s) will be getting the gender swap. »

How likely is the current crop of kids' TV reboots, from Danger Mouse to The Clangers, Morph and more, to harm your childhood memories?
The period June 9th to 15th 2014 was an unpleasant raid on the collective VHS cassette memory of our youth. Not only did Eric Hill, the creator of Spot the Dog, pass away, but so too did Casey Kasem, who for forty years had been the voice of Scooby-Doo's snack wingman Shaggy. Francis Matthews, the stiff upper lip behind Captain Scarlet's stiff puppet lip, departed to be with a different angel squadron. And before that Earth lost Rik Mayall, who performed the best Jackanory ever. Sorry Prince Charles. He did.
So if you felt a part of your formative years had suddenly melted away like a Funny Feet ice cream abandoned on a see-saw, then that's perfectly normal. It's always sad and strangely personal »

Over two decades since it wrapped, much loved 1980s British cartoon series "Danger Mouse" is coming out of retirement with FremantleMedia Kids & Family Entertainment teaming with the BBC to produce a 52-episode new series to air on Cbbc next year in the UK.
A parody of the Bond films and TV's "Danger Man", the Cosgrove Hall Films production followed an eye-patched white mouse who is also the world's greatest secret agent. He and his bespectacled and reluctant hamster assistant Penfold work out of their base within a red postbox.
Together they battled the evil machinations of the wheezy voiced toad Baron Silas Greenback and his crow assistant Stiletto Mafiosa. On occasion the vampire Count Duckula was the antagonist, and he went on to score his own spin-off series.
161 episodes were produced over a decade and the show proved to be an international hit, even in the United States market where »

In a move sure to delight readers of a certain age, cult cartoon Danger Mouse is headed back to TV. Following the misadventures of an intrepid rodent with a talent for espionage, the tongue in cheek format saw the title character take on the machinations of the evil Baron Greenback, all the while assisted by his fragile hamster assistant Penfold.
Voiced by David Jason and Carry On star Terry Scott, the show had quite a pedigree and though casting has yet to be confirmed it's a likely bet Jason will return. He is reviving his Granville character for a full series of rebooted sitcom Still Open All Hours and is probably in nostalgic mood. As it only takes a quick trip to the recording studio I can see him lending his wily vocal talents to "Dm" once more. Scott is sadly no longer with us, so if Jason decides »

The much-loved British children's show Danger Mouse is set to return to TV screens, with FremantleMedia Kids & Family Entertainment partnering up with the BBC to develop a new version of the classic series, which will air on Cbbc.
"When I helped to create Danger Mouse I had no idea the show would be such a huge success both in the UK and overseas," said Brian Cosgrove, co-creator of the original show. "I am delighted that a whole new generation will be introduced to his daring deeds and thrilled to be part of this new 21st century series. I can't wait to find out what he's been up to for the last 23 years."

Cbbc has revived Cosgrove Hall's Danger Mouse for a 52-episode new series to air in 2015...
Thunderbirds, Morph, and now Danger Mouse... The UK is officially only a Super Gran reboot away from full nostalgic kids' TV submersion. Cbbc has announced it's bringing back Cosgrove Hall's murine super spy for fifty-two new eleven-minute instalments, due to air in 2015.
It's a mighty thirty-three years since the series, about a Bond-like super agent mouse who lived in a secret lair underneath a red post box aided by his trusty er, hamster? friend Penfold zipped around the world besting foes, first aired on ITV.
Horrible Histories' Ben Ward is leading the writing team, and there's no official confirmation yet on who will be voicing the titular character (if it isn't David Jason, Cbbc may well have an angry thirty-something riot on their hands, providing we can all get babysitters that is).

Sir David Jason insists he has no plans to retire after 50 years in the TV business. The 'Only Fools And Horses' legend, who will start filming a new series of 'Still Open All Hours' later this year, is busier than ever with the paperback version of his autobiography out and a children's TV show about to launch. He told The Sun newspaper: ''I've got no intention of retiring, why would I? ''I'd really like to find another great role, another leading character. If the right project comes along I'm ready to do it. ''Touch wood, I'm in good health. Long may it »

Sir David Jason has suggested that Only Fools and Horses will not return.
The Del Boy actor recently reunited with his on-screen brother Rodney, played by Nicholas Lyndhurst, for a special Sport Relief sketch featuring a cameo by David Beckham.
However, Jason said that a return wouldn't be possible as writer John Sullivan died in 2011.
Speaking on Lorraine, he said: "The thing that happened with [the Sport Relief episode], it was a script that John Sullivan was working on with his son... it was a Sullivan script.
"John Sullivan was a one-off. He wrote those characters and there isn't anybody else, I don't think, that could do it."
Jason also spoke about how the ambition of actors has changed since he started his own career, explaining: "When I started I was in Rep [theatre], and it was to me like a religion that I had to be an actor. That's all I wanted.

Step inside the dream factory for a chat about Noel Edmonds' beard and probability theory...
My first memory is of my dad getting into a fight with Noel Edmonds on the set of Telly Addicts. He had gotten so bored with the endless trivia that he fell asleep during one question, and woke up during another, and ran onto the stage to complain that David Jason wasn't The Fugitive. If he found a colourful 80s gameshow boring, good lord knows what he makes of random guesstheboxathon Deal Or No Deal. He would probably implode into a coma.
But is it really just a game of chance? Unfortunately, try as you might, you can never get away from that agonising itch that it's all just a completely random number guessing game. Albeit one with a delusional man who has phone conversations with a non-existent financial warlord, and 4000 gallons of tears. »

The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Steven Spielberg has named his next directing gig, an adaptation of Rald Dahl's classic children's story The Bfg. The project, housed over at Dreamworks will be a live-action adaptation of the popular children's author's 1982 novel of the same name. Melissa Mathison, who wrote one of Spielberg's most beloved tales E.T. will adapt the novel for the big screen.
Here's the book synopsis.
The Bfg is no ordinary bone-crunching giant. He is far too nice and jumbly. It's lucky for Sophie that he is. Had she been carried off in the middle of the night by the Bloodbottler, or any of the other giants—rather than the Bfg—she would have soon become breakfast. When Sophie hears that the giants are flush-bunking off to England to swollomp a few nice little chiddlers, she decides she must stop them once and for all. »

In an unexpected move, Steven Spielberg has signed up to direct a new version of Roald Dahl's classic children's book, The Bfg. E.T. screenwriter Melissa Mathison has written the script, meaning expectations will be very high on this one. The Bfg (short for big, friendly giant) previously appeared in an animated British film back in 1989 (which the lumbering dream-catcher voiced by David Jason). Spielberg's version is reported to be live-action, although it's unclear at this early stage whether the Bfg will be created with CGI,...

Earthquake Today in Japan: 5.1 Quake Hits in Fukushima Prefecture
An earthquake hit today in the Philippines, but no tsunami was issued.
The 5.9 magnitude quake hit above the collection of islands that make up the Philippines, about 44 miles north of Burgos, the U.S. Geological Service said.
The quake hit at a depth of 4.6 miles.
Earthquakes are common in the area, with a number of tectonic plates moving against each other.
A 5.9 quake is relatively strong, but with it being off-shore, likely didn't cause any damage.
The quake was also 59 miles northwest of Claveria, 63 miles north-northwest of Laoag, and 65 miles north-northwest of San Nicolas.

Venue promises one event at a time which is a lie. There were 2 other events going on at the same time as my wedding, so of course the owner Maria was upset when we started the ceremony late. The food took forever and the cake was not the one I selected. She was rude and condescending to my guests because they were in the way of the other 2 parties going on that day which is just unacceptable.

Where do I begin? From the moment my husband and I stepped in we were treated like royalty. Maria and Kevin were so amazing to work with. They catered to all of our needs. No detail was left out.Everything was set up just how we wanted it. My husband and I came across a financial issue at the last minute and Maria was able to work with us. The food was amazing. Everyone raved about it. The drinks were great! Everything was awesome!

We had our wedding in October and people are still talking about it. It was a small wedding but everyone was impressed at the quality of service and the food!! I was told to check Victor's out just because they had great food and I wasn't disappointed! The staff is wonderful, I had to bump my wedding up a whole year sooner and they were able to help me change everything on their side. Everything went wonderfully and I did like that there is only one wedding at a time. I have attended places where numerous weddings are going at once...Guests wander to different rooms, brides are bumping into each other trying to take their pictures, etc. I was glad I had the place to myself and could focus on our wedding. They also do small events, baby showers and parties. I hope to use them again in the near future!

This place is perfect for a small (up to 150 guests) wedding. They only do one wedding at a time, which means they cater to the bride and groom exclusively. I had a fall wedding at Victor's in November and it was spectacular. The food was the best part. There was so much of it and it was delicious. We kept hearing how good the food was weeks after the wedding from our guests. Everyone at Victor's was so attentative to us and made our wedding that much more special. They decorated the rooms in such elegant fall colors and set up the tables with our centerpieces exactly how we wanted. There's not to much to look on the outside of the facility, but it's the inside that will take your breath away. I would highly recommend this place for any wedding reception.

Sometimes I just hate the bay area...RANT
You just have too much. It is annoying. You have good food. You have good agriculture. You have *local* agriculture. You even have my favorite assistant, who I grudgingly allowed to transfer up North.
I was annoyed with Oliveto. I was even more annoyed when Fra Mani. I was disgusted with Fatted Calf. I was incensed when I heard that yet another place was opening with handmade charcuterie. It is wrong.
My stupid city? Nothing.
I can barely find a decent source for meat, let alone meat *with style*
So I read online that Slow Food is having a tasting with SEVEN sources for local charcuterie. SEVEN. Do you hear that lame Angelenos? SEVEN.
And what does this event cost? $100 plane ticket, $200 hotel room, $14 for bart. And $12.50 to attend.
re: Melanie Wong
Just had dinner at Tadich Grill last Sat: same crusty old waiters, same great atmosphere and the same old very sinful food: clam chowder, turbot stuffed with crab & Bay shrimp a la Newburg, creamed spinach, and Tadich rice custard pudding. Glad to know that some things in San Francisco never change.
If it makes you feel any better, those events sound great but often aren't really. You're eating with toothpicks standing up, you never get enough food, you're hungry afterwards and your sense of taste and what to eat for a real meal is goofed up...and you never quite get the full dimension of the food, or remember what was good. It's just one big tease.
Okay, SF does very well with the artisan slow food stuff...but LA does very well in areas that SF doesn't - Korean, Thai, the volume of Mexican...etc.
BTW, my sister in LA (who might be reading this) likes a bread from Semifreddi. When I told her I can get it at Safeway she said, "What?!!!"
Hey at least we're artisan jerks.
re: ML8000
"LA does very well in areas that SF doesn't - Korean, Thai, the volume of Mexican...etc."
Let's not forget kosher delis.
But doesn't LA have "Lifestyle" Safeways, too?
re: Xiao Yang
"Lifestyle" Safeways??? Is that an upscale version of Safeway?
re: ChowFun_derek
That's their term for the newer ones that are made to look like Whole Foods, have a lot of artisanal stuff, hot food stations, etc. The one in Mission Bay is an example.
re: Xiao Yang
Thanks...I'll take a look at that one when I'm in the neighborhood.
re: ChowFun_derek
The one in Mission Bay isn't all that different than most Safeways, pretty cramped and has a nasty staff. It is my least favorite Safeway ... anywhere. If I see you at a chowdown remind me to tell you why I hate this Safeway since it was the way they treated a customer (not me) and doesn't belong on the board.
The Marin Safeway is slightly more upscale but again, we are not talking anything trip-worthy or out of the usual.
The most upscale of all the Safeway's I've tried in the Bay Area is ironically in Fremont on Warm Springs Road with wooden flooring in the organic section and a cheese counter with real wheels of cheese and other artisan cheese ... still ain't no Whole Foods.
re: Xiao Yang
I thought you guys were talking about Pavillions.
Now I get it...yes, the new Safeways with accent/mood lighting, dark wood, etc. LA does have the new Safeways but Semifreddi only ships to the bay area.
I have to say, getting good bread at a mainstream supermarket is very nice. Safeway carries 4 or 5 local bakeries. .
re: ChowFun_derek
More like an upPRICED version of already overpriced national supermarket chains.
Safeway aims for the crowd with too much money to spend or no time to cook (bad planning?). Premium meat cuts are the rule; bone-in chicken, most chuck and pork shoulder cuts are special orders (maybe :-). No cheap house brand coffee while you shop - Starbucks only. Don't look for dried chickpeas (seriously). Premium prices charged for Safeway brand 'artisanal' bread and regular produce. Minor win was the addition of a decent selection of organic produce.
Most SoCal Vons have been 'upgraded' to this standard. Unfortunately we don't get the great SFBA breads.
re: Xiao Yang
Nor Cal has Safeway, So Cal has Vons and the more Upscale Pavillions. Nor cal has Luckys, So Cal has Albertsons. Nor Cal has Food Maxx, Socal Has Food 4 Less.....
re: Skunk2Racer
Nor Cal has Cala Foods, So Cal has Ralphs....sorry, couldn't resist
re: shellshock24
Hey Thanks! i can't remember everything...LOL
Like eating what's in season, I firmly believe in eating to the city's strengths.
My charcutrie consumption has plummeted since leaving the bay area and I was very upset about missing out on Oliveto's Truffle Dinner last year and I'm already upset about not being able to make it to Whole Hog this year. Hopefully, this is only a one year thing.
LA's got great asian and sushi though and I had to fly down to LA to get my sushi fix.
Gotta love Southwest and Priceline.
re: Porthos
Porthos, don't disdain missing Oliveto's Truffle Dinner. The truffles are/were horrible this year so you didn't miss much. Consider yourself lucky you didn't spend the money.
re: Porthos
Hee hee. My husband and I always fly up for Whole Hog. It makes a great Valentines Day dinner.
Yeah, the sushi and korean and chinese are wonderful. But a lot of other things annoy me and that slow food event got on my last nerve yesterday. Also, bread. Good bread in SF is cheap. Decent bread in LA is much more expensive.
re: steve h.
Great way of putting it. You're absolutely right.
I've been living in Bay Area for 17 years. I think 80%+ of the restaurants and markets cannot meet my needs. when compare to most Asia countries, look at Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, China....etc. Their restaurants and food markets quantity and quality are much higher and better than here.
re: capriana94555
I think your comparison is a bit meaningless, since Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan and China have just slightly larger markets of Japanese and Chinese people to serve.
If the Bay Area Chinese population were to multiply by 2,500 (which would make it equal China's) I imagine a few restaurants and markets would emerge which would meet with your approval.
re: Xiao Yang
Since capriana didn't specify Asian markets, she's even more offbase. The quality and selection in any region is going to vary depending on what you're shopping for. If you're shopping for mostly Asian ingredients, then obviously markets in Asia are going to be better. But if you're shopping for, let's say, corn tortillas and other basics of Mexican cuisine, then I'm sure you're going to find markets in Asia completely inadequate. In other words, while the average market in the Bay Area may be inferior to the average market in Japan in some areas, it will be superior in others.
re: Ruth Lafler
Exactly! I doubt that any of the markets in East Asia would meet my need for fresh charcuterie, basque cheese, tomatillos, and artisan bread.
re: Morton the Mousse
You think the food in China is good? On average? Aaaargh.....
I think we should consider ourselves lucky that California has two world class cities within a reasonable(?) driving distance; hence, we should take full advantage of what each has to offer.

London— The U.S. track team did little to move the scoreboard or overall medal count. Jenn Suhr's pole vaulting gold was a surprise for the Americans on a night when they couldn't catch a break anywhere else.
Two-time Olympic gold medalist Angelo Taylor staggered to the finish in the men's 400-meter hurdles for fifth place in a race won by 34-year-old Felix Sanchez of the Dominican Republic. Sanchez finished in 47.63 to beat American Michael Tinsley to the line, as the United States took only one medal in an event where it captured all three in Beijing.
"It's a new day, it's a new era," said the 33-year-old Taylor. "Things change. People evolve. People show up."
Defending 400-meter sprint champion LaShawn Merritt wasn't among them, however.
The American was heading back home after pulling up with a hurt hamstring in the first round. With no other American men in that final, 19-year-old Kirani James gave Grenada its first-ever Olympic medal. He took the lead at the halfway point and ran hard to the finish line even though he hardly needed to — winning in 43.94 seconds.
It was the first time since the 1980 Moscow Games that someone other than an American won the men's 400. Merritt went home to start rehabilitating, figuring there was no need to try to run the 4x400-meter relay — where the Americans have won seven straight — at less than full health.
"You can't be 75 percent in track," said Merritt's coach, Loren Seagrave.
Earlier, Americans Lolo Jones and Dawn Harper, the defending Olympic champion, made it through the first round of 100-meter hurdles qualifying, along with world champion Sally Pearson of Australia.
In the women's 200, Veronica Campbell-Brown of Jamaica provided the only bit of drama in preliminaries, barely making it into the top three to move on to Wednesday.
Americans Allyson Felix and Carmelita Jeter, Jamaican 100-meter gold medalist Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce and 400-meter winner Sanya Richards-Ross of the U.S. also made it through. Richards-Ross had the best time of the bunch at 22.48 seconds after a restless four or five hours of sleep the night before with her new gold medal.
"I just feel lighter and free and so I'm just going to go out there and give it my best and hopefully make it through the semifinals as well," she said.
While Richards-Ross was expected to win in the 400, Suhr wasn't really the favorite. She's been through a lot the last four years — namely, an Achilles injury, a gluten allergy that has caused sometime-debilitating sickness and, of course, the always-hovering presence of Isinbayeva, who despite her recent struggles still has a lot of her competition cowed before they ever step into the stadium.
It felt that way for Suhr — then Jenn Stuczynski — in Beijing, where the cameras caught Rick berating her minutes after she finished second. Lost in that snippet was the relationship that developed as he became more to her than a coach.
"If he could get out there and try to push me over the bar, he would," Suhr said. "He's done so much for me. He cares so much. People are like, 'Your coach is intense.' It's because he has that passion and knows how much I want it. It's two people with that kind of passion and drive."
Maybe their practice facility tells their story best — a cold, unforgiving, shell of a place that hardly looks like the training center for an Olympic champion.
"It's uphill, a slanted box, a lot of messed-up stuff," Suhr said.
As time has passed, Rick Suhr has had to keep expanding it. Upward. Because his wife's jumps threaten to scrape the roof.
And yet, rough as those conditions can be, Rick Suhr said it was worse at the stadium in London, where the pole vaulters were met with drizzle, rain, shifting winds.
Before all of Suhr's jumps, she would look to the stands where her husband would be holding his arms straight out in one direction or the other, signaling Jenn to make certain pole adjustments depending on the wind.
"You can see the way it goes back and forth," Suhr said of the constant conversation she carries on with her husband during a meet. "We're talking. We're emotional. It's something we put our hearts into, and blood, sweat and tears.
"It's two people," she said, "working toward one goal."
