ABSTRACT: Objectives The impact of Hatha yoga as add-on treatment to quetiapine fumarate extended release (QXR) or escitalopram (ESC) in depressed patients on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis activity was assessed. Methods 60 inpatients suffering from major depressive disorder (MDD) according to DSM-IV were randomized for a 5 week treatment with Yoga or not (control group) and with either QXR (300 mg/day) or ESC (10 mg/day). Serial dexamethasone/corticotropin releasing hormone (DEX/CRH) tests were performed to assess HPA axis function. The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (21-HAMD) was used weekly. Results A more pronounced down regulation of the HPA axis activity due to yoga could not be detected. The stepwise long term cortisol reduction was seen in both medication groups, irrespectively of yoga add-on treatment. In addition, cortisol improvers in week 1 of therapy (reduction in cortisol peak value within the DEX/CRH test) reached significant greater amelioration of depressive symptoms after 5 weeks. Conclusions Our results suggest that antidepressant agents down regulate HPA axis function to a greater extent than additional Hatha yoga treatment. Moreover, an early reduction of HPA system hyperactivity after one week of pharmacological treatment seems to raise the possibility of a favorable treatment response.Journal of Psychiatric Research 06/2014; · 4.09 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Careful observation of the longitudinal course of bipolar disorders is pivotal to finding optimal treatments and improving outcome. A useful tool is the daily prospective Life-Chart Method, developed by the National Institute of Mental Health. However, it remains unclear whether the patient version is as valid as the clinician version.BMC Psychiatry 05/2014; 14(1):130. · 2.24 Impact FactorThis article is viewable in ResearchGate's enriched format - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Targeted high-throughput sequencing of many amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and fronto-temporal dementia (FTD) genes in parallel has the potential to reveal novel ALS- and/or FTD-phenotypes and to provide missing links on the ALS-FTD continuum. For example, although the 43-kDa transactive response DNA binding protein is the major pathologic hallmark linking ALS and FTD, mutations in the gene encoding 43-kDa transactive response DNA binding protein (TARDBP) have been appreciated only as a cause of ALS-phenotypes, but not yet of pure FTD. Thus, the genetic link is not yet well substantiated that TARDBP mutations can cause the full spectrum of the ALS-FTD continuum. High-throughput sequencing of 18 ALS and FTD genes in an index patient presenting with early-onset pure (behavioral) FTD and a positive family history for ALS revealed an established TARDBP mutation, A382T. This finding demonstrates that a TARDPB mutation can cause early-onset pure FTD without evidence for ALS even in advanced FTD disease stages. Moreover, it indicates that TARDPB screening might be considered even in young patients with "pure" neuropsychiatric disturbances and without evidence of neurodegenerative disease in the parental generation.Neurobiology of aging 10/2013; · 5.94 Impact Factor -
Article: DNA methylation analysis of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene in major depression.
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) has been repeatedly discussed as susceptibility factor for major depression (MD) and the bi-directional relation between MD and cardiovascular disorders (CVD). In this context, functional polymorphisms of the ACE gene have been linked to depression, to antidepressant treatment response, to ACE serum concentrations, as well as to hypertension, myocardial infarction and CVD risk markers. The mostly investigated ACE Ins/Del polymorphism accounts for ~40%-50% of the ACE serum concentration variance, the remaining half is probably determined by other genetic, environmental or epigenetic factors, but these are poorly understood. The main aim of the present study was the analysis of the DNA methylation pattern in the regulatory region of the ACE gene in peripheral leukocytes of 81 MD patients and 81 healthy controls. We detected intensive DNA methylation within a recently described, functional important region of the ACE gene promoter including hypermethylation in depressed patients (p = 0.008) and a significant inverse correlation between the ACE serum concentration and ACE promoter methylation frequency in the total sample (p = 0.02). Furthermore, a significant inverse correlation between the concentrations of the inflammatory CVD risk markers ICAM-1, E-selectin and P-selectin and the degree of ACE promoter methylation in MD patients could be demonstrated (p = 0.01 - 0.04). The results of the present study suggest that aberrations in ACE promoter DNA methylation may be an underlying cause of MD and probably a common pathogenic factor for the bi-directional relationship between MD and cardiovascular disorders.PLoS ONE 07/2012; 7(7):e40479. · 3.53 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Recent published data and treatment guidelines have created uncertainty about the use of lamotrigine in affective disorders, especially in acute bipolar depression. Furthermore, unpublished data on lamotrigine in mania, mixed episodes, unipolar depression and rapid cycling are still waiting to be integrated into the literature. Therefore, we critically reviewed the position of lamotrigine in the acute and long-term treatment of affective disorders. Studies were identified by searching English language articles published in MEDLINE using the key words: lamotrigine, bipolar depression, unipolar depression, mania, mixed episode, long-term treatment, rapid-cycling. Results of unpublished trials were obtained from the GlaxoSmithKline website. Lamotrigine showed efficacy in the prophylaxis of bipolar disorder, more so in depressive than manic episodes. There was no evidence of effectiveness in the acute treatment of mania, mixed episodes, unipolar depression or rapid-cycling bipolar I disorder. Its effect in the acute treatment of bipolar depression is at most small. Based on current evidence, lamotrigine is indicated for the prophylaxis of bipolar disorder with predominantly depressive episodes. Its effectiveness in the acute treatment of bipolar depression is open to debate, and practical considerations limit its usefulness here. There are no grounds for recommending its use in manic or mixed states, in rapidly-cycling bipolar I or in unipolar depression.Journal of Psychopharmacology 10/2011; 25(10):1289-94. · 2.81 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Bipolar disorders are often not recognized. Several screening tools have been developed, e.g., the Hypomania Checklist-32 (HCL-32) and the Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ) to improve this situation. Whereas the German HCL-32 has been used in non-clinical samples, neither the HCL-32 nor the MDQ has been validated in German samples of mood-disordered patients. Additionally, hardly any prior study has included patients with non-mood disorders or has considered potential effects of comorbid conditions. Therefore the goal of this study was to test the validity of both scales in a diverse patient sample while also taking into account psychiatric comorbidity. A multi-site study was conducted involving seven centers. Patients (n=488) completed the HCL-32 and MDQ and were independently interviewed with the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM (SCID). Sensitivity for bipolar I was similar for HCL-32 and MDQ (.88 and .84) but slightly different for bipolar II (.90 and .83), specificity, however, was higher for MDQ. In general, a comorbid condition led to increased scores in both tools regardless of whether the primary diagnosis was bipolar or not. LIMITATIONS AND DISCUSSION: Although we included not just mood-disordered patients, detailed subgroup analyses for all diagnostic categories were not possible due to sample sizes. In summary, HCL-32 and MDQ seem fairly comparable in detecting bipolar disorders although their effectiveness depends on the goal of the screening, psychiatric comorbidity, and potentially the setting.Journal of Affective Disorders 02/2011; 128(3):291-8. · 3.76 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) is a powerful treatment option in severe or chronic catatonic states and has been reported to be useful in oligophrenic patients. We report the followup medical history of a patient with corpus callosum aplasia (or agenesis) who was continuously treated with ECT over three years. First, he improved considerably after a series of ECT, but relapses of catatonia made a continuous, weekly ECT necessary. Due to the severity of the brain malformation, an add-on medication with benzodiazepines and second generation antipsychotics was necessary to treat catatonic symptoms. This case emphasises the benefits of long-term ECT in oligophrenic patients.Case reports in psychiatry. 01/2011; 2011:638506. - European Psychiatry 01/2011; 26:603-603. · 3.21 Impact Factor

Article: Major depressive disorder is associated with cardiovascular risk factors and low Omega-3 Index.
[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) are frequent worldwide and have a high comorbidity rate. Omega-3 fatty acids have been suggested as disease modulators for both CVD and MDD. Therefore, we studied whether polyunsaturated fatty acids and the Omega-3 Index may represent markers for assessment of the cardiovascular risk in somatically healthy patients suffering from MDD. We conducted a case-control study from July 2004 to December 2007 in 166 adults (86 inpatients with MDD but without CVD from the Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy and 80 age- and sex-matched healthy controls from an outpatient clinic of the Division of Preventive Cardiology, Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, Germany). Information gathered at baseline included MDD diagnosis according to DSM-IV criteria, depression ratings, conventional cardiovascular risk factors, and fatty acid and interleukin-6 determinations. Fatty acid composition was analyzed according to the HS-Omega-3 Index methodology. During the study, patients received no supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids. The main inclusion criteria were the diagnosis of MDD according to DSM-IV and a 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS-17) score of at least 17. Treatment response and remission were defined using the HDRS-17. Several conventional risk factors such as high triglyceride (mean, 152 mg/dL vs 100 mg/dL; P < .001) and fasting glucose (mean, 96 mg/dL vs 87 mg/dL; P = .005) values as well as greater waist circumference (mean, 97 cm vs 87 cm; P = .019) and higher body mass index (calculated as kg/m(2); mean, 26 vs 24; P = .011) were more prevalent in MDD patients in comparison with controls. The Omega-3 Index (mean, 3.9% vs 5.1%; P < .001) and individual omega-3 fatty acids were significantly lower in MDD patients. An Omega-3 Index < 4% was associated with high concentrations of the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (χ(2) = 7.8, P = .02). Conventional cardiovascular risk factors, the Omega-3 Index, and interleukin-6 levels indicated an elevated cardiovascular risk profile in MDD patients currently free of CVD. Our results support the employment of strategies to reduce the cardiovascular risk in still cardiovascularly healthy MDD patients by targeting conventional risk factors and the Omega-3 Index.The Journal of Clinical Psychiatry 12/2010; 72(9):1242-7. · 5.81 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The use of atypical antipsychotics (AAPs) for the treatment of unipolar and bipolar depression has been more and more frequently evaluated, and aripiprazole showed positive effects in the treatment of unipolar depression. However, no placebo-controlled studies of adjunctive aripiprazole for the treatment of bipolar depression have been performed yet. In this prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial, 23 inpatients with bipolar depression according to DSM-IV criteria were included. Before randomization, patients had to be on a constant mood stabilizer treatment with lithium or valproate for at least 1 week. After inclusion, all patients were openly treated with additional citalopram and with additional aripiprazole or placebo for 6 weeks. The primary outcome parameter was the reduction in depressive symptoms according to the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS) within 6 weeks. After 6 weeks of treatment, the HDRS score decreased in both groups. There was no significant difference between both the groups at any point of time with respect to the HDRS. Derived from this small pilot study, adjunctive aripiprazole does not seem to be a promising strategy for the acute treatment of bipolar depression. However, this lack of additional benefit seems to stem from the already good effectiveness of the control group, namely the treatment with citalopram.Human Psychopharmacology Clinical and Experimental 03/2010; 25(2):126-32. · 2.10 Impact Factor - Pharmacopsychiatry 09/2009; 42(05). · 2.17 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: The study aimed to increase the knowledge about the detailed course differences between different forms of bipolar disorder. Using the prospective life-chart-clinician version, we compared the fine-grain analysis of mood swings and treatment modalities of 18 bipolar II with 31 bipolar I patients. During an observational period of a mean of 26 months we observed an increase of euthymic days, and a decrease of (sub)depressive and (hypo)manic days. Days in a (sub)depressed state were more frequent than days of (hypo)mania as well as days of subdepression or hypomania in comparison to days of full-blown depression or mania. Bipolar II patients showed an increase in hypomanic days receiving more frequently antidepressants. Bipolar I patients, with a decrease of manic days, were significantly taking more often mood stabilizers. Treatment in a specialized bipolar clinic improves the overall outcome, but bipolar II disorder seems to be still treated sub-optimally with a possible iatrogenic increase of hypomanic days.Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica 06/2009; 120(6):474-80. · 4.86 Impact Factor - Klinische Neurophysiologie 03/2009; 40(01). · 0.33 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: The pathophysiology of depression has been assigned to the noradrenalin and serotonin system. Results of different studies also support a role of the dopaminergic system in depression: In particular, psychomotor retarded depressive patients exhibited lower levels of homovanillic acid (metabolite of dopamine). While the moodimproving effect of methylphenidat, D-amphetamine and cocaine is also supportive for an involvement of the dopaminergic system, reserpine leads to diminished dopamine levels and may induce a depressive syndrome as well as dopamine receptor-blockers. Dopamine-mediated motor disturbances and accompanying changes in mood in Parkinson's disease likewise support pathophysiological similarities of depression and Parkinson's disease. Psychomotor inhibition, reduced facial expression and decreased speech production in depression are in line with a hypodopaminergic state of the respective motor areas. There is evidence from open studies for the ergotalkaloids bromocriptine and pergolide to have anti-depressive effects. Controlled studies for the selective dopamine D2/D3-agonists pramipexole and ropinirole are existing. Bupropion, a selective dopamine and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor (DNRI), has proven antidepressant efficacy in controlled studies and has been licensed for the treatment of depression.Neuropsychiatrie: Klinik, Diagnostik, Therapie und Rehabilitation: Organ der Gesellschaft Österreichischer Nervenärzte und Psychiater 02/2009; 23(1):15-25. · 1.38 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In this study the predictive value of the combined dexamethasone/CRH test (DEX/CRH test) for acute antidepressant response was investigated. In 114 depressed inpatients suffering from unipolar or bipolar depression (sample 1) the DEX/CRH test was performed at admission and shortly before discharge. During their stay in the hospital patients received different antidepressant treatment regimens. At admission, the rate of nonsuppression (basal cortisol levels >75.3 nmol/l) was 24.6% and was not related to the later therapeutic response. Moreover, 45 out of 114 (39.5%) patients showed an enhancement of HPA axis function at discharge in spite of clinical improvement. In a second sample, 40 depressed patients were treated either with reboxetine or mirtazapine for 5 weeks. The DEX/CRH test was performed before, after 1 week, and after 5 weeks of pharmacotherapy. Attenuation of HPA axis activity after 1 week was associated with a more pronounced alleviation of depressive symptoms after 5-week mirtazapine treatment, whereas downregulation of HPA system activity after 5 weeks was related to clinical response to reboxetine. However, early improvement of HPA axis dysregulation was not necessarily followed by a beneficial treatment outcome. Taken together, performance of a single DEX/CRH test does not predict the therapeutic response. The best predictor for response seems to be an early attenuation of HPA axis activity within 1 or 2 weeks. However, early improvement of HPA system dysfunction is not a sufficient condition for a favourable response. Since a substantial part of depressive patients display a persistence of HPA axis hyperactivity at discharge, downregulation of HPA system function is not a necessary condition for acute clinical improvement either. Our data underline the importance of HPA axis dysregulation for treatment outcome in major depression, although restoration of HPA system dysfunction seems to be neither a necessary nor a sufficient determinant for acute treatment response.PLoS ONE 01/2009; 4(1):e4324. · 3.53 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The serotonergic system is involved in the pathophysiology of major depression as well as in the early central nervous system development and adult neuroplasticity. The aim of the study was to examine in 77 patients with major depression and 77 healthy controls the association between the triallelic polymorphism in the promoter region of the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTTLPR) and gray matter (GM) brain volumes measured with 1.5 T magnetic resonance imaging. Voxel-based morphometry were estimated on magnetic resonance images and genotyping was performed. We found that healthy controls have a strong association between the 5-HTTLPR and GM volumes of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, left anterior gyrus cinguli, left amygdala as well as right hippocampus, whereas there is no such association in patients with major depression. Healthy subjects carrying the S- or L(G)-allele have smaller GM volumes than those with the L(A)-allele, indicating that 5-HTTLPR contributes to the development of brain structures. Patients with depression show reduced GM volumes, particularly when they are homozygous for the L(A)-allele, suggesting that these patients are more vulnerable for morphological changes during depressive episodes.Molecular Psychiatry 01/2009; 13(12):1093-101. · 15.15 Impact Factor -

ABSTRACT: Rapid-cycling bipolar disorder is often characterized by a lack of response to psychopharmacological treatment, and a standard therapy has not been developed yet. The aim of this study was to examine the long-term efficacy and safety of a monotherapy with quetiapine or sodium valproate (VPA) in patients with rapid-cycling bipolar disorder. This open-label, randomized, parallel group monotherapy pilot study was conducted at 3 German centers. A sample of 38 remitted or partly remitted patients with bipolar disorder and rapid cycling (quetiapine n = 22; VPA n = 16) were treated with quetiapine or VPA (flexible dose design) for 12 months. Forty-one percent of the patients with quetiapine and 50% with VPA completed the trial. On the basis of ITT-LOCF, Life Chart Method data showed that patients being treated with quetiapine had significantly less moderate to severe depressive days than patients on VPA (mean +/- SD, 11.7 +/- 16.9 days vs 27.7 +/- 24.9 days; P = 0.04) while they did not differ in the number of days with manic or hypomanic symptoms. Furthermore, according to the Clinical Global Impression Scale, bipolar version, the responder rates tended to be higher for quetiapine than for VPA. There were no differences found evaluating the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Scale, and the Young Mania Rating Scale. The incidence of adverse events, especially of orthostatic dysregulation, sedation, and weight gain, was significantly higher in the quetiapine group. In this study, quetiapine was more effective than VPA on the number of depressive days and similar to VPA in the treatment of manic symptoms. Quetiapine was associated with a greater incidence of side effects, particularly orthostatic dysregulation, sedation, and weight gain.Journal of clinical psychopharmacology 11/2008; 28(5):555-60. · 5.09 Impact Factor

Everyone loves a mystery. And the biggest mystery in fashion lingerie these days is: why is Etam being so coy about rolling out its new designer collaboration with Cherry Blossom Girl?
Bits and pieces from the collection have been appearing sporadically on the French lingerie giant's webshop for nearly two weeks, but the big promotional push that it deserves has been left up to CBG herself.
We showed you the first style series in the collection here last week. And yesterday, CBG introduced the second set on her blog. It's called Miranda and if the campaign photos seem awfully overexposed, don't worry, it's intentional.
Cherry Blossom Girl is the photographer/stylist Alix Bancourt, whose blog has an enormous following among 20-something European women. As a result, she has significant clout in identifying and even setting style trends from her home base in Paris.
And she also loves a mystery.
The Miranda set is a tribute to the 1975 Australian movie (and novel) Picnic At Hanging Rock, which traces the events following the disappearance of three schoolgirls and their teacher during an outing north of Melbourne on Valentine's Day, 1900.
It's not a true story (as many people think), but Peter Weir's first big film hit has had the same kind of grip on the female imagination as The Virgin Suicides, the American movie that is the inspiration for CBG's other new style range, Lux.
Picnic At Hanging Rock is worth re-watching anytime it pops up on the late show, if only to give you another chance to speculate about what happened to its characters, and the subtle Freudian undercurrents of sexuality, dread and dream-like surrender that are the plot's underpinnings.
Cherry Blossom Girl doesn't go that deep with her Miranda interpretation, which is a soft pastel range of silk briefs and bras with white lace and tulle trims and big grosgrain bows. It was inspired, she says, by the lights and neutral colors of the movie and the bleached backcountry landscape where it is set — something that is also expressed through those overexposed campaign images.
There's probably a debate to be had about the ethics of creating pretty, romantic lingerie that is inspired by stories in which the death of tragic heroines is linked to their sexual awakening. But that question will likely go over the heads of French girls — who will absolutely gobble this collection up — just as it did for CBG herself.
There's one more style range coming in this collaboration, which is based on CBG's favorite film heroines. It's the all-black satin-and-lace Gilda range, and it's much more openly erotic than the Lux and Miranda ranges. Keep an eye on Cherry Blossom Girl's blog for details.
Here are some more looks from the series. That's Alix in the photos; she's one of the few lingerie designers who model her own creations.
And in case you're wondering, Etam no longer ships to the U.S. If there is a retail distribution point for their products in North America, we'd love to hear about it.
The Lisbon sisters were born to be memorialized.
Nearly 20 years after their appearance in the Jeffrey Eugenides novel The Virgin Suicides, and a dozen years after the cult film of the same name, the five youthful heroines continue to have an almost hypnotic effect on young girls everywhere.
Parents (like me) of teen girls were deeply troubled by that movie, not because it romanticized the tragic destiny of Lux Lisbon and her siblings, but because it did it so convincingly.
Boys (both in the story and in real life) were baffled by what happened to Lux and her sisters. But girls got it instantly: how the growing pull of desire overlaps with a constant, aching loneliness; how the intimacy of family and friend relationships made romantic ones seem awkward and foreign; how uninviting the future looked in comparison to the exquisite, isolating perfection of youth.
The Virgin Suicides became a kind of template for the fuzzy, narcissistic agonies of middle-class teens in general and turned Kirsten Dunst into a celebrity reference point for a generation of young women.
It seems almost inevitable, then, that someone should decide to create a romantic lingerie collection inspired by the Lisbon sisters. And that that person would be Alix Bancourt, the Parisian blogger/stylist/designer who calls herself Cherry Blossom Girl and who reminds you of what Lux Lisbon might have been like if she had chosen to live: artistic, light-hearted, given to daydreams, and gifted with impeccable style taste. (That's Alix modeling her own creations in the photos.)
The Lux collection is the centrepiece of Cherry Blossom Girl's second collaboration with the French lingerie label Etam, which is comprised of three style ranges that salute Alix/CBG's screen idols.
The Lux line is a fairly large collection of super-pretty soft bras and briefs in pastel shades and summery floral prints, shown above. Look for lots of feminine ruffles and satiny bows, not to mention the matching print bow tie.
There's also the Gilda line of black satin and lace pieces (like the sheer polka dot body above), named for the Rita Hayworth film of the same name.
The third line, Miranda, hasn't been released yet, but it's not inspired by Miranda Kerr or Cosgrove. Instead, it's a tribute to the main character in another iconic film about mysteriously interrupted young lives: Peter Weir's 1975 Picnic at Hanging Rock.
The first collection from Cherry Blossom Girl for Etam last spring was one of the prettiest of the year and quickly became hard-to-get. Items from the new set were posted on Etam's website earlier today (and are reasonably priced), so don't wait too long to get in line!
Here are some more looks from the Lux range:
Last year it was spring lambs on the fashion runway. This time, it was pythons and poodles and models in matching afros.
But those weren't the most exotic creatures in last night's spring runway show from French lingerie brand Etam, held at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and streamed live on the internet.
That honor would go to Grace Jones — at 63, still as fearsome as ever in a hip-baring bodysuit and customized goat horns — and a bevy of other 80s' disco icons who came out of semi-retirement for the high-spirited spectacle.
In fact, Etam's annual show was more concert than catwalk, with astonishing back-to-back performances from Jones, Chaka Khan (above), Gloria Gaynor and Sister Sledge that kept the crowd on their feet. It's awfully hard to make a lasting impression during Paris Fashion Week (across town, for example, Karl Lagerfeld was turning a fashion runway into an airplane cabin to unveil his latest), but Etam's disco inferno should do the trick.
The disco theme also backed up the goods on the runway, as Etam unveiled a spring line filled with high-glam pieces sparkling with gold and sequined accents.
If you didn't catch the 90-minute show, here's an edited best-of video to give you a taste of what you missed!

Being a lingerie model can be dangerous. Especially if you work for French label Etam, which keeps finding new ways to generate buzz by putting its models in harm's way.
The label is in a heap of trouble after it sent three models wearing trenchcoats into Paris's famed Musee d'Orsay (above) to perform an unauthorized striptease in front of amused art lovers, before getting chased out by security guards.
That episode followed two other recent 'flash attacks' on French landmarks by the scantily-clad trio: stripping down to their bright skivvies during a security check at Charles De Gaulle airport, and holding a chilly impromptu skate at the outdoor rink at the Eiffel Tower.
Those stunts (see videos below) were posted on Etam's YouTube channel. However, the clandestine video of the museum stunt has disappeared from the Etam site after museum authorities threatened legal action. A spokesman for the Orsay said the museum wasn't informed of the Etam stunt and called it "a serious infringement of the Orsay's rights and the rights of others."
The museum houses, among other things, a vast collection of Impressionist masterpieces and, ironically, is about to open a new exhibit featuring its catalog of Degas nudes (below).
Etam's latest escapades are meant to promote the upcoming live webcast of its spring runway show, which happens on Jan. 23 at 9 p.m.
And it's not the label's first adventure in guerrilla marketing. This time last year, the sexy flashers drew lots of stares — and plenty of press — when Etam sent them into the wintry streets of Paris in January to talk to passersby about the spring collection and show (see it here on our list of the best lingerie videos of 2011).
You may not be familiar with Sophie Hallette, but if you have a taste for couture lingerie then you probably have this label in your undies drawer without even knowing it.
Sophie Hallette is one of France's largest and most esteemed lace-makers and supplier to many of the world's great fashion houses and lingerie labels. In the past year alone, the 120-year-old dentellière has leant is exquisite patterns to new lingerie collections from Aubade, Princesse Tam Tam, Agent Provocateur, Nina Ricci, Wolford, Andres Sarda and Lise Charmel's breathtaking Look Fatal range.
But most people around the globe will know Sophie Hallette's work from an unforgettable, one-off moment in history — this spring's Royal Wedding.
SH was responsible for creating the lacework for Kate Middleton's Alexander McQueen wedding gown, delivering an exclusive pattern of roses, shamrocks and lilies that was painstakingly hand-sewn onto the gown's décolletage, sleeves and train.
Now, the French lingerie label Etam is capitalizing on the lacemaker's historic moment in the fashion spotlight by introducing a limited "prestige" collection called Sophie Hallette for Etam.
There are more than a dozen pieces in the Sophie Hallette collection that show off the diversity of the lacemaker's patterns. (Have a look at the portfolio on the Sophie Hallette website to see more than 2,000 incredible patterns in their catalogue.)
To be honest, some of the items in this new Etam collection (like the Silky set in the top photo) showed up earlier this summer when Etam rolled out the lookbook for its Fall 2011 range.
But who can fault Etam for paying such a tribute to one of the industry's great artisans? Perhaps Etam is simply piggybacking on the demand for all-things-Kate-related, but there's something touching about the label's decision to shine a well-deserved spotlight on a partner that is less well known to consumers.
Besides, if it turns a new generation of fashionistas into lace connoisseurs, Etam will have done a valuable public service!
Below are a few of the sets included in the Sophie Hallette for Etam collection, followed by an illuminating video that looks behind the scenes at Sophie Hallette.

Everton 2-1 Man City: Match Report
Toffees frustrate CitySuperb second-half headers from Sylvain Distin and Leon Osman frustrated Manchester City in their Champions League quest as they were beaten 2-1 by Everton.The FA Cup finalists looked on course for a potentially decisive win in their pursuit of a Barclays Premier League top-four place as Yaya Toure put them ahead.The visitors squandered several chances to make victory safe at Goodison Park and were stunned when former City defender Distin equalised and in-form Osman grabbed a winner.With David Silva at his influential best, City seemed in little trouble as they dictated play.Yet Everton have become their bogey side in recent years and the Merseysiders hit back to win for the seventh time in eight meetings.City now face their chief rivals for fourth, Tottenham, on Tuesday knowing they cannot ease up ahead of next week's trip to Wembley.Much talk before the game centred on Joleon Lescott's first return to Goodison since his controversial #22million move to City 21 months ago.Yet it was Distin, also facing his old club, who turned the match and Osman settled it with his fourth goal in nine games.City left Mario Balotelli, Gareth Barry and Adam Johnson out of their line-up and talisman Carlos Tevez, as expected, did not appear.City soon asserted themselves, although Everton had the first chance when Osman fired over from a cleverly-worked Leighton Baines free-kick.The visitors looked composed in possession with Silva exhibiting some sublime touches.The Spaniard went close after brilliantly controlling a hopeful punt from Vincent Kompany and beating Tony Hibbert to shoot across goal.He showed more skill when he tapped a James Milner cross into the six-yard box but Patrick Vieira volleyed over.Milner found space in the area as Everton pushed up but he opted to pass instead of shooting and the hosts got back to clear.The respite was shortlived for the hosts, however, as City claimed the lead moments later, in the 28th minute.Silva was again the orchestrator, although he benefited from a lucky ricochet as he took the ball past Distin.He found Toure unmarked to his right and the Ivory Coast international powered forward to clip the ball over Tim Howard.Edin Dzeko tested Howard with a fierce shot from the edge of the area after the restart but the American gathered well.Silva created another good chance for Toure when he threaded a low ball into the area but the former Barcelona midfielder sidefooted over.Kompany needed to be alert to deny Jack Rodwell a shooting chance early in the second half.The ball looked to be rolling to the midfielder in the box after a powerful Baines free-kick struck Toffees substitute Jermaine Beckford but the Belgian defender got a foot in.City replied with a quick breakaway as Silva freed Toure but Howard stood up well and denied the advancing midfielder with his feet.Dzeko then headed wide from an Aleksandar Kolarov free-kick as City built more pressure.A scuffle broke out when Kompany responded to a Rodwell tackle on Nigel de Jong by pushing the Everton midfielder.Rodwell's subsequent reaction led to both he and Kompany being booked.City quickly got back into their stride and Dzeko, looking for his second Premier League goal, struck a firm shot wide from the edge of the area.The visitors paid the price for their profligacy as Everton equalised in the 66th minute through Distin.Everton had sent on Tim Cahill - scorer of five goals against City - just moments earlier and the Australian went straight into the box for an Arteta free-kick.But it was Distin who did the damage, rising at the far post to power a header into the bottom corner which Joe Hart failed to keep out.The goal infused Everton with confidence and Beckford went through.The striker was ruled marginally offside and chipped wide anyway, but nevertheless it was a warning for City.It was one they failed to heed as the Toffees grabbed a second in the 72nd minute.Neville delivered an inviting cross into the area and Osman timed his leap superbly, beating Kompany in the air and glancing a looping header over Hart into the top corner.It almost got worse for City as Beckford shot straight at Hart from close range.City's frustrations were perhaps evident at the final whistle as Cahill and Kolarov appeared to argue with each other while Neville exchanged words with the visitors' assistant boss Brian Kidd.

Now that Ms. Kushner has published her second novel, the highly acclaimed /Flamethrowers/, her earlier work will be in demand. An exceptional writer and artist.
Jul 12, 2009
Cuba in the fifties was a paradise for American expats. For employees of the United Fruit Company and the Nicaro Nickel Company--for the American employees, anyway--there were servants (carefully trained to cook good American food), parties, and private schools. For Cubans, and for the Haitians and Dominicans brought in as laborers, there was a life of servitude to people who couldn't even be bothered to taste the local cuisine, let alone learn the language. Telex from Cuba is set in the years between 1952 and 1958, when all the Americans were evacuated in the aftermath of the revolution. Although it is a savvy and realistic story, due to Kushner's plumbing of family correspondence and memories, as well as solid historical research, it is not a grim one. We meet presidents and dictators, revolutionaries and show girls and speculators. But mostly, we become involved in the lives of the Americans who inhabit Preston and Nicaro, company towns of the United Fruit Company and Nicaro Nickel Company respectively. The story consists of two narrative threads. The first is told by KC Stites, younger son of a United Fruit Company executive, who has spent his whole life in Cuba. The second is a third person narrative which, although it moves among the perspectives of various Americans, adult and child, in Nicaro, comes to us most vividly from that of Everly Lederer, who has just arrived with her family at the beginning of the novel. Both points of view are fresh and distinct, and all of the characters are complex and real. Although this novel could not be called magical realism, still, there's something about the tropics, the sheer sensory, sensual overload of them, that feels magical, even when all of the events are strictly earthbound. Fragrance, color, heat, humidity, the brilliant sun, the sudden drenching rain, bananas and guavas and mangoes and limes and pineapples, sweat--and everybody sweats a lot, rotting vegetation, the sugar cane and nickel refineries--how can there be so much to see taste smell touch in such a small place? Rachel Kushner's writing is gorgeous, simple and rich, and--mostly--just right for the period in which it's set. There are one or two jarring anachronisms of phrase, such as when the narrator says that a daughter has "outed" her father as a Cuban, but these are minor when placed in the context of the whole. Telex From Cuba is a novel which has the potential to be a creeping bestseller, one that, perhaps, doesn't hit with a bang, but which word of mouth--and book groups, wonderful book groups!--keeps moving along.

About this location
The Catalunia region
The river Ebro or Ebre as it is known in Catalan, is the second longest river in Spain and the biggest river by the volume of water. It starts in northern Spain near Santander in the Cantabrian Mountains and runs for almost 500 miles along the southern foothills of the Pyrenees in Northern Spain before flowing out into into the Mediterranean through the Ebro delta 100 miles south of Barcelona. The massive cliffs of the Serra de Cardo range separate the Ebro Valley from the Mediterranean coastal area and after running through the great hydro dam at Caspe it cuts through the magnificent Els Ports mountain range before finally emptying into the Mediterranean Sea close to Amposta. These lower reaches The Ebro Valley with its riverside, mountains, the medieval city of Tortosa and the huge Ebro Delta are one of the most beautiful and interesting parts of Spain and scenically it has it all. The area has a good transport infrastructure for those looking for a second home but for the holiday maker it represents a slice of real unspoiled Spain. Whether it's activities like climbing, motorcycling or fishing or simply soaking in the culture of Catalunya with its gastronomic specialities and wines, local Firas and history going back thousands of years, this area really does have something for everyone. These lower stretches of the river Ebro from Caspe down to the delta are renowned world wide for the huge Wels catfish which grow up to 200lb and are the largest freshwater fish found anywhere in Europe. But many other species also thrive in its rich waters, and there are a number of specialist fishing tour companies for anyone who wants to have a go for the huge carp and Barbel that are found here.
Historically the area has lots to visit from the prehistoric rock shelters at Ulldeona with their amazing rock paintings through to the great crusader castle at Miravet and the magnificent cathedral in Tortosa. The old cable ferry across the river at Miravet is a must for seeing the river Ebro close up. The whole area is noted for its Firas or lacal fairs where the visitor can buy freshly cured specialitys
The Ebro Delta (in Catalan: Delta de l'Ebre), in the Province of Tarragona, Catalonia, is one of the largest wetland areas (340 km²) in the western Mediterranean region. The Ebro Delta has expanded rapidly on soils washed downriver—the historical rate of growth of the delta is demonstrated by the town of Amposta. A seaport in the 4th century, it is now located well inland from the current Ebro river mouth. The rounded form of the delta attests to the balance between sediment deposition by the Ebro and removal of this material by wave erosion.
The modern delta is in intensive agricultural use for rice, fruit (in particular citrus), and vegetables. The Ebro delta also has numerous beaches, marshes, and salt pans that provide habitat for over 300 species of birds. In 1983 Spain designated a large part of the delta as Ebro Delta Natural Park (Parc Natural del Delta de l'Ebre) to protect the natural resources.[1] A network of canals and irrigation ditches constructed by both agricultural and conservation groups are helping to maintain the ecologic and economic resources of the Ebro Delta.

"Perfect relaxing retreat"
A beautiful little casita in the countryside away from the hustle and bustle of the usual holiday locations. Local village has a couple of bars with friendly staff and customers. Lyn and Ian are the perfect hosts living in the house next door, there if needed.
Fantastic pool, best enjoyed at night looking up at the stars.
Thank you for your review.If you have any suggestions that would make your stay better please let us know.

"My favourite place for peace and quiet...and a great welcome"
La Casita is a fantastic quiet, peaceful bolthole in Catalunya that I return to again and again. Simple but superbly comfortable accommodation, set in lovely gardens with the pool right alongside. What's not to like? Lyn and Ian are perfect hosts who are there when you need them but give you your own space if that is what you want. Nothing is too much trouble. The Ebro is just the other side of the orange trees and the village of Tivenys is only a 20 minute walk or a short drive away. Tortosa is close and it is only 20 minutes or so to the nearest beach and the Ebro Delta. The mountains on the other side of the river are spectacular, especially in the mornings when the sun catches them. there are so many places to see, with la Casita being the perfect base from which to explore.

Posted: December 17, 2007, 5 a.m. EST
After Judith Summers' husband, Udi Eichler, died from gastric cancer, love seemed an impossibility.
But she hadn't counted on meeting George.
George was a beautiful Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, with a head deemed too big for show exhibition and a heart made for trouble. Summers was a goner.
"I'd fallen in love at first sight before, though never with a dog. But within seconds of seeing this one, I'd had what the French call a coup de foudre. I was knocked out, irredeemably smitten."
In "My Life with George: What I Learned about Joy from One Neurotic (and Very Expensive) Dog," Summers shares the impact this small dog has had on her and her son Joshua's lives. From the moment George stepped into Summers' home, he ruled the roost. Rules like "No getting on the furniture" and "No sleeping in the bedroom" lasted less than one night. But it wasn't just Summers' discipline that took a beating. From an appetite for organic roast chicken and a propensity for injury, George's habits have made him one expensive pet: Summers calculates she has spent more than $30,000 on dog-related expenses during George's nine years with her and Joshua.
But along with incorrigible shredding and refusals to go "walkies" came a deep desire to love and be loved, and Summers can't deny just how much this overweight, overindulged, overly dominant dog means to her, especially after she came close to losing him – twice.
"George found us when we were lost, and anchored us when we were adrift. He's warmed our hearts, kept us on our toes, and often reduced us to hysterical laughter, all without saying a word. He's kept us awake for countless nights, seen off one of my boyfriends, and at times driven us barking mad. Still, Joshua and I wouldn't be without him for anything."
"My Life with George" is on sale now.

Lighten Up for Earth Hour
Tweet |
**Written by Doug Powers
Tonight at 8:30 p.m. local time all around the globe, private homes and major landmarks will turn off their lights for one hour. Fortunately this means there should be more than enough available electricity for me to turn on everything I own and light up my house brighter than Perth when John Glenn spotted it from orbit. And I'm talking hot, bright, old school incandescent light and not CFLs (a bulb that is sold with its own HazMat suit for clean-up purposes can't possibly be environmentally friendly).
Why so grumpy about Earth Hour again this year? Because I don't like being preached to about what I should be doing, especially when I already do it. For starters, in my house, we celebrate Earth Hour every day, like no doubt many of you do. How so? We don't leave lights on in rooms that nobody is in. We keep the thermostat fairly low (mostly because I'm usually too hot). We carpool when possible. We don't waste gas. We pick up trash when we're out walking. We volunteer to clean up the riverwalk, and we plant trees because we like trees — not because we've fooled ourselves into believing that planting trees is our noble contribution towards helping make Al Gore's mansions carbon-neutral.
As such, I tend to get a little put off when being preached to by hypocrites who swim in their own heated pools, travel in private jets, play sports under bright lights at night, heat cavernous homes they're not even living in for months at a time, trash national monuments when celebrating politicians who are going to save the environment, and ride in limo caravans to speeches where they tell the rest of us how our pickup trucks, lawn mowers, hamburgers and 75-watt light bulbs are killing the planet.
Here's another reason I won't participate in Earth Hour: I refuse to acknowledge, symbolically or otherwise, that electricity is the problem and that civilization can be saved by turning itself into North Korea for any length of time.
The harnessing and generation of electricity is among the greatest discoveries ever. It's helped make the world safer and more sanitary. Electricity runs the equipment that is used to make the medicine that saves lives. It runs the cameras, televisions and computers that allow us to see evils that are being perpetuated around the world that we might not have otherwise known about — except in North Korea, where you can't see crimes at night because Earth Hour is mandatory 365 days a year. The list goes on. We should be celebrating electricity instead of pretending it's some sort of cancer that needs to be cut out of our lives. That's why my lights will be proudly shining at 8:30 tonight.
The now completely marble-less Prince Charles has referred to a Mumbai slum, which pretty much endures the sacrifices of "Earth Hour" every second of every day, as a role model for sustainable living. I refuse to affirm that kind of lunacy, even symbolically for one hour per year.
Update: Earth Hour is halfway through now and all my lights are shining so bright that I'm going to end up paying an Obamacare tanning tax, but it's a small price to pay to honor electricity.

New Sonar Map Shows Details Of USS Hatteras Wreck
A new 3D state-of-the-art sonar map released by NOAA's Office of National Marine Sanctuaries, ExploreOcean, Teledyne BlueView and Northwest Hydro shows never-before seen details of the USS Hatteras, the only Union warship sunk in combat in the Gulf of Mexico during the Civil War. The map was released on the 150th anniversary of the ship sinking on Jan. 11, 1863, after fighting the raider CSS Alabama approximately 20 miles off the coast of Galveston, Texas. The Hatteras was a 210-foot-long iron-hulled steamship the U.S. Navy converted into a gunboat. Its wreck is largely intact 57 feet under water in sand and silt....

Asking Alexandria – Not The American Average Lyrics
1, 2, 3, 4!
(All the things that she said, was it all in my head?)
Come on, baby,
Keep it down.
Honey, hush your lips.
Clothes trailing
From the backdoor
To the bedroom
And I don't even know your name.
Give me all you've got.
Make this night worth my time,
Make this worth my time (oh!)
What I would give to live this night again!
I knew when I first saw you,
You'd fuck like a whore!
You'd fuck like a whore!
Hope they hear you scream for more! (yeah!)
Your thighs were made for cheeks to graze.
My lips, your poison,
Lead me to your knees.
Ah, come on!
Girl, get down,
It's almost over!
Take it all the way!
You stupid fucking whore!
And after all of all my dreaming being only you,
You're standing there, baby, oh,
The things that I could do!
Back to the wall with a drink in my hand!
Back it up, baby, ride, ride, ride!
One step too late
And I never told you
That I can't take
Another disappointment.
Breathing and grasping all leads to another messy ending.
Breathing and grasping all leads to another messy ending.
Ten Inch!
With your back against the wall!
With your face buried in the pillow!
I see you cold!
I feel you heartless!
You stupid fucking bitch!
You stupid fucking bitch!
Fucking bitch.

Maggie & Pauline (Stratford Upon Avon) - 26/01/2003
Hi, know this is 2003 with this review, but, just wanted to rate this brilliant dance by John. We were at a social last week when this dance was requested, wow, what a test of time, probably one of the best dances of 2001, sad that, although much loved by all us dancers, it took us half through to get all the steps, but, once revived, we were all enjoying it. This is proof in what a lot of us are saying, too many dances are being choreographed and not remembered after a few months gone by, yet, we all remember the oldies, still danced and enjoyed, just proves a point that the oldies will always be around!!!! what a shame all energies in dances that come and go.
Saloon Scissor Stomp
Maggie & Pauline (Stratford Upon Avon) - 26/01/2003
Great to see a review for Saloon Scissor Stomp, another oldie that always fills the floor. We always teach in our Beginners Club. It is a happy dance. We do use lots of different music, but our class like Carlene Carter=Heart is Right the best, it is beaty.
Haley's Comet
Karen Hunn - 25/01/2003
This dance was very much enjoyed by my class when I taught it this week and even though the music is very enjoyable, since then people from the class have been so keen to dance the dance that they have put it to other songs at socials. Don't let the fact it's 96 counts put you off, because you really do not notice this and my class are already remembering it after not even one week since it first being taught. Once again, a brilliant dance to a lovely piece of music, what we've come to expect from the choreographer, so keep up the good work Robbie!
Chill Factor
Christine - 25/01/2003
Just have to say, that i have just learned this dance but itis really really fun and i love to dance to it.....so go on and keep dancing xxxx
michelle - 25/01/2003

Haley's Comet
Liz Raven - 25/01/2003
Great dance to great music - miss the Deans, don't see them about so much now. Fairly easy dance even though 96 count. It's a lot of fun where you can add your own bits (shimmys, struts, shakes).
Swing City Jive
Lavinia & Mick - 24/01/2003
This is one of our club's favourites. We revive it now and again. one of Max Perry's best to great music
Come Dance With Me
Lavinia & Mick - 24/01/2003
What can you say. It's Jo Thompson choreography. The dance flows beautifully with the music. Loved by all levels
Fields Of Gold
Lavinia & Mick - 24/01/2003
Beautiful music. Dance flows well. Yes the turns for some needed some practising. well done.
Good To Go
Lavinia & Mick - 24/01/2003
Fantastic dance. Wish the music was a little longer. Still,it means we do it twice. Definite favourite
Just A Kiss
Lavinia & Mick - 24/01/2003
An absolute favourite with our classes. Excellent choreography and music.
Bottle It Up
Lavinia & Mick Shann - 24/01/2003

1000 Years (Or More)
Lavinia & Mick Shann - 24/01/2003
Great little dance for our Improvers. Introducing the Smokey Places type steps. Great music.
