Letterman Body Language: What Signals Was David Sending?
After the jump, PopEater's body language experts break down Dave's first show back since he admitted to having sexual relationships with multiple female members of his staff to tell us what's really going down with the late night host.
First, watch highlights from Monday's show (if you haven't already) and analyze it yourself.
"In the beginning of the monologue when Dave was making a lot of jokes about the weekend flying by, hiking on the Appalachian trail and his GPS not talking to him, he started doing several of what we in the business call 'tongue erasers,'" says body language expert Patti Wood.
" A tongue eraser is where the tongue visibly moves from one side of the mouth to the other and it signifies that this person does not like that he is saying. It shows that Dave doesn't like that he has to take a comic's stance on what is happening and it is leaving a bad taste in his mouth," says Wood.
When Dave told the audience, "Ladies and gentleman I need to tell you this entire exchange is being videotaped," he folded his hands over his lower pelvis. Wood, the author of "Success Signals," called this 'the fig leaf'. "It is as if he is putting a metaphorical fig leaf over himself to cover up and is a sign that in that moment he was really feeling the exposure of all this."
Psychologist and body language expert Kevin Hogan tells PopEater that Dave's wetting of his lips and occasional strains in his voice signaled the anxiety he was feeling in the moment. "And his movement was much tighter than usual," Hogan says. "But he didn't lie. He was scared to death at times and he was deeply appreciative of the support he got."
Dave's anger rose to the surface when he talked about newspapers, radio and other media people browbeating and humiliating his staff. "His hands came up in fists when he was talking about the media. These were the strongest non-verbal cues he gave, signifying that he has very aggressive emotions towards the media," Wood says.
He then began his apology to his wife by clutching his own hand. "He held his own hand as a way of pacifying and comforting himself and you could see it was a real moment of pain for him," Wood says.
"My wife Regina has been horribly hurt by my behavior," Dave told the audience.
"His palms went up and straight out from his body in a sign of supplication to his wife. I felt a great sincerity in that nonverbal request for forgiveness," Wood explains.
Overall, Hogan dubbed Letterman as "brilliant." "There were no denials. There was no deception. He did a great job walking into the propeller and making it out without losing anything. It was rather a tutorial on how public figures should handle stuff like this in the future."

He got caught so of course he is going to be apologetic. Doesnt mean hes being sincere...maybe he is maybe he isnt? Who cares! Isnt ANYONE FAITHFUL these days????????????????????

He didn't get caught. He volunteered the information. He could have paid the guy $2 million and never said a thing about it. Again, he didn't get caught.

You ask if our opinion of David Letterman has changed. You don't ask whether it's changed for better or worse. I had to admit it has changed, because I now think much more highly of him. It's not because he had sex with the women, which to me is pretty standard stuff, but that he handled it with humor and grace and integrity. I'm glad to see a major celebrity handle the sex-related issues with sych panache; I think it helps us all relax a little about it.

He did seem to put himself out there with a "holier than thou" image, while bashing so many others. His show also played to college students. I'm very disappointed to find out the truth behind the scenes for this is NO example for young people. The issue of "sexual harassment" in the workplace is devastating to women, and he seems to have taken it very lightly for years while his own career sky-rocketed! The relationship he had with his longtime girlfriend, even having a child together, is as close as one can get to marriage without the 'papers,' and he was big time cheating on her. Trying to frame the issue in "technical" terms only makes things worse because it only shows his true colors. As a longtime viewer, I'm truly disappointed in him!

He, like most men, which I am, are only sorry after getting caught. It had nothing to do with hurting his wife. He knew what he was doing and had to know it could get out. But he did it anyway. So stop with the poor me for getting caught and man up. Will he do it again...probably!

Sorry, he's a low life that got caught. He really ISN'T a victim here. He couldn't have been blackmailed if he hadn't done the deed.

So he's a low-life because he had an affair??...We had a President who got oral sex from an intern in the Oval Office and Americans seemed to embrace him nonetheless...talk about a double standard...Bottom line, people who never liked Letterman are comming out of the woodwork to condemn him before even having all the facts in hand...But in this mess comes a beacon of hope...the group of Letterman fans who are approaching this new scandel in an objective manner and using common sense in arriving to a conclusion surrounding his current situation...
Let's look at some details..
- Letterman had sexual relations with a former employee that was obviously consentual and before he was married
- the woman was in a relationship with Halderman at the same time, which recently was uncovered, which only adds an additional motive for his actions
- Halderman is now reaching to try to accuse Letterman of sexual harrassment which is ridiculous as there are clearly define HR policies and laws protecting women in the workforce against this. - Tuesday 06 OctoberBy ALANHighest Rank Vote downVote upReport this

I am not a fan of fornication.....but this is life in this system. David wasn't married at the time of the "discretions", so who's business is it what he did at that time? It seems as if no one cares that a CREEP tried to steal money from him by threatening to expose him. Who, of us would like something like that to happen to us? And now his lawyer is trying to make light of it, as if it's David Letterman's fault this is all happening. This whole system of things is so corrupt, it can't even get out of it's own way. What's right is wrong and what's wrong is right.

Finally, a letter that makes sense. This man was single and he has power. I'm not hearing about the 17 and under group, and I'm not hearing about force nor putting anyones job on the line. I'm hearing that a single man had sex with women. Give me a break. And to anyone with a problem with this, mind your own business. The only one with concern here should be his new wife who he was living with at that time. The rest of this is illegal activity between Mr. Letterman and an embezzler.

Oh I think it is very much his wife and everyone elses business. He has been with his wife for over 20 years living as man and wife. He has a child with her that he would be calling a b@stard if it were anyone elses child. He has been running everyone else down for years but he doesn't like it when they do it to him. I hope this brings the sob down and they cancel the show or get a replacement. He isn't funny and hasn't been for years. All he ever does is run others down (Sarah Palin for example). - Tuesday 06 OctoberBy Tiffany
I couldn't agree with you more. I'm glad you have common sense. I can understand why the wife would be hurt if those ladies were still hanging around with David privately, but it all did happen before her. She should definitely forgive him. I would.

No, Dave WASN'T married at the time. But what you fail to realize is that he's been living with this same woman, his wife, Regina, since 1986! Yes, that's 23 years! He just didn't MARRY her until March 2009 (even though they have a son born in November 2003). So although they were not "married", this is still a long-term relationship including a minor child in which he cheated repeatedly.

If I hear one more time that Mr. Letterman was "single" at the time of this I think I'm gonna scream! He'd been dating his now wife for 23 years! They already had a son. That isn't how I define single. He was cheating, and possibly intimidating very young women into sexual liaisons. There is no way to white wash this ... no matter how hard you try!
- Wednesday 07 OctoberBy trinityHigh Rank Vote downVote upReport this
You are evidently a MORON!!! What's wrong is that Americans do not respect each other when "dating"...they are like animals roaming "laying with every and anything"until a ring is placed on the finger or 'I do' is said....then after that it's "I'm bored!!!"...don't want to be tied down and the creeping begins ALL OVER AGAIN!!! That old tired wrinkled baboon should not be on that show. Young people are being taught that NO VALUE is placed on human beings..oh "maybe when you marry" you can then think of your partner as worthy of honesty...such a bunch of crap, no wonder the divorce rate, autism...and all kind of illness plague this society!!! NASTY people being lauded everywhere.

This is in response to Jack and Hoosier: Letterman had an on-again/off-again relationship with Laslow beginning in 1986 and, therefore, did not live with her continuously during the entire time. I have no idea whether his relationships with the other staff women happened during the on-again or off-again periods of his relationship with Laslow, so I'm going to reserve judgement. As for the two of you, it must be nice to be all-knowing. What did it feel like to create the heavens and earth? Did it really only take 6 days?

A gas leak on Montauk Avenue and Westomere Terrace in New London has been secured.
Battalion Chief Tom Curcio said a paving company milling the road accidentally struck a gas valve in the street, causing the leak. The incident was reported at 7:40 a.m., and residents were evacuated from their homes on Westomere Terrace, with some Montauk Avenue residents also evacuated. They were allowed back in their homes by 8:30 a.m.
Yankee Gas has secured the leak and is in the process of repairing the gas valve.
No injuries were reported.

Fiber-optic fan-beam absorption tomography
Applied Optics, Vol. 31, Issue 9, pp. 1328-1343 (1992)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (2063 KB)
An absorption tomography instrument that is capable of acquiring 100 projections of 100 elements each in less than 200 ns is described. The instrument uses time-multiplexed, fiber-optic fan-beam sources that are sequentially activated in groups to reduce greatly the total number of detectors required for achieving a given resolution. The quantitative details required to tailor this instrument to a particular application are presented. A single-fiber prototype was used to verify the design and establish its sensitivity. The sensitivity is limited by laser-speckle noise. The fiber-optic fan-beam generator can produce an interdetector correlation of the projection noise, reducing the effect of this noise on the reconstruction. The noise is measured as a function of optic-fiber stability and size, laser bandwidth and mode stability, and detector size.

- The problem of the minimum number of projections has been carefully studied. The minimum number of projections is determined by the necessity of avoiding streak artifacts that tend to appear at relatively large distances from high-contrast objects.25 Brooks and DiChiro26 argue heuristically that Nmin = πN/4 for parallel beam geometries in which views are collected over 180°. Snyder and Cox,27 using mathematically rigorous analysis for the same geometry, found that the minimum number of views required are given by Nmin = 2πrfνm, where νm is the maximum spatial frequency present. Joseph and Schulz28 calculated the minimum views for fan-beam geometries, using a filtered backprojection reconstruction algorithm in which views are collected over a 360°C field and foundNmin=4πνmrf1−sin(θfan/2),which reduces to the Snyder and Cox expression for θfan = 0 and equal angular ranges. Using the Brooks and DiChiro expression to define νm, the number of fans required to image an artifact-free region of radius rf isNf=πNd1−sin(θfan),which equals 4.2Nd for θfan = 30° and 6.3Nd for θfan = 60°. In practice, most medical CT scanners have values considerably far fewer fans, because serious streaks are produced only if the object is small and of high density. This situation is never the case for gaseous flows.

- The number of speckles exiting a cylindrical fiber is approximately Ns = π[2af(NA)/λ]2 where NA is the numerical aperture and af is the radius of the fiber. The average area of the speckle grains expands quadratically from the fiber to the collimating lens to a beam with an area of AB=πfs2tan2(θNA) where fs is the focal length of the spherical lens and θNA = sin−1(NA). Thus the average speckle dimension in this beam iss=(1AB2¯Ns¯)1/2=λfstanθNA8af(NA),assuming that the speckles occupy one-half the area (100% contrast).

This is closely related to the correlation function defined in Ref. 44: f(t) = sj2(t)/σp2, where σp2 is the mean variance of the noise in the projection.

YouTube Topic Search Offers Way To "Explore" Related Videos
Around 6pm tomorrowPacific Time, YouTube will be making YouTube Topic Search available through its TestTube "labs" area. The new feature allows people to easily explore videos by topic.
I got a demo of this about three weeks ago, and it's pretty cool. For example, you can search for videos and then narrow them down into areas such as "LOL" to find those that are especially funny.
The screenshot below, which YouTube sent me, give you a flavor for the new feature:
Since it's not actually live, I can't do further screenshots that show how when you select one of the Explore topics, you get a new collection of videos that match what you originally searched on and narrowed to (IE, above, clicking on "miley cyrus" would give you videos matching her and "lady gaga." But it's pretty neat, so check it out, when it's available later.
SMX West kicks off next week! Join your peers at Search Engine Land's SMX West conference for three days of tactical sessions, keynotes and clinics on paid search, SEO, mobile search and more. All Access and free Expo+ passes available. Register today!

Keith Bogans' days with C's numbered?
August, 14, 2014
By Nick Borges | ESPN Insider
The Boston Celtics will need to trim their roster before the first game of the regular season as they have more than 15 players under contract. With that in mind, Chris Forsberg of ESPNBoston.com and a bunch of writers who follow the Celtics took a vote on who they thought was the likeliest to be moved off the roster. The player who received the most votes was not a surprise -- Keith Bogans.

This is one loud obnoxious horn ... perfect! It's butt ugly but since I mounted it under the seat of my 89 FLHS I didn't really care about looks ... just wanted loud and got exactly what I was looking for.

Thought it would be louder.

It was easy to install. Loud enough to wake up the cagers who most often do not pay attention to what the heck they are doing.
mholgate Posted:
Decently loud horn for the price and size. I would like to see a sturdier mounting system. If the bolt vibrates loose the horn is falling off.

I like the soothing smell and quite light texture, it feels very relaxing to apply. However, it's far too expensive for the results I got after using it every night for a year I wasn't overwhelmed. My skin felt exactly the same from using my usual Nivea moisturiser!
Age: 19-24
Skin: Sensitive, Fair, Neutral
Hair: Black, Other, Other
Eyes: Black
I used this for about 3 weeks before I realized I was breaking out from it, not just purging. It didn't even even up my skin tone or give me a moisturizing glow like most facial oils. Needless to say I will not be repurchasing, since the only pros I can think of are the packaging. You can get much better facial oils for the same price (or lower).
For reference, the oils I've have good luck with are Josie Maran argan oil, Fresh seaberry oil, Desert Essence jojoba oil, food grade sunflower oil, Aura Cacia almond oil, and Innisfree green tea seed oil. I sometimes add in lavender, geranium, or neroli essential oils when applying. The oils that I broke out from are Boots Botanics organic facial oil, Now Foods grapeseed oil, Aura Cacia apricot oil, and New Roots tamanu oil. I have sensitive, acne prone skin that is highly reactive.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Medium, Not Sure

There are so many great reviews about this product but I guess this proves that beauty products can work very differently on different people. I honestly don't think this oil did anything for my skin. I love the smell, it really relaxes me but apart from the aromatherapy benefits I haven't seen any other benefit. It is a good moisturiser and although it is an oil it sinks in the skin very nicely. But usually the way I rate overnight products is based on how good my skin looks first thing in the morning; and with this oil I see no difference.
It is not very cheap but it lasts for ages - too long actually. I can't wait to get rid of. Won't be purchasing again.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Acne-prone, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Other, Other
Eyes: Brown
This works amazing for my acne prone skin. I bought this in the early December and I've been using it ever since. My acne cleared up within a month and my face have never been clearer after so many years trying out new products for my skin. Every morning I would wake up feeling my skin being recharged and fresh. Although the down side of this is that this midnight recovery is quite pricey, but after good results, I feel that it is indeed a really good investment. One bottle can last up to a year. Truly a miracle for my face!

I have struggled with moderate acne and hyperpigmentation for YEARS. One of my friends that has similar skin recommended this product to me and I'm so glad I decided to try it! I was a little hesitant because of the price and the fact that my skin was already naturally oily... I didn't want to be putting more oil on my face. But after using it for a few months, I have found that this product has improved my skin tremendously! I put about 3-4 drops in the palm of my hand and gently pat it into my face every night. I wake up with skin that is actually less oily and more balanced and glowing. It has significantly reduced my hyperpigmentation and has really evened out my skin tone. I have also seen a significant decrease in my breakouts (almost nonexistent!) The packaging is great because it comes with a little dropper, which I think makes the product last much longer. I know the price is steep, but it lasts for such a long time. I'm not even a fourth of the way through the bottle and I have been using it for 4 months. Also, another little perk is that it smells wonderful! It has a lavender scent which is supposed to help with falling asleep. Overall, this product is a MUST HAVE for me and is well worth the price after years and years of looking for an overnight mask to help with my skin type.

Was at Lord and Taylor passed Kiel display. Thankfully no SA so I was under no pressure. Purchased because I needed extra moisture during these frigid months, my skin is dry. Never used this brand before. Used at night before sleep, the fragerance is calming glides over the skin. Needed hellp @ neck and décolleté areas. Have been using for three weeks and I feel so much better in the am. Dry blotchy areas are significantly improved. I was in Neimans and a SA from Sisley of Paris was trying to sell me a new oil serum I was able to wrangle a sample. Kiels Midnight outshines Sisley. Sisley was @$375.00 lol!! Please don t be fooled by overpriced companies. This product is the BOMB........

I should have been using this product for years now, but better late than never, right?
It's really helping with the tone and texture of my skin, and the smell is heavenly.

One of the few staples of my night-time regime. I've been using this for 3 years now and I couldn't live without it, it literally does what it says on the tin, I apply it using the palm of my hand every evening and when I wake in the morning my skin looks and feels 'like new'. I mean it when I say I look my best on a morning!
It is relatively pricey, especially when you look and think its around £1+ per ml. but honestly, it will last you a LONG time, my first bottle was the 50ml one and it lasted me around a year and a half, you really only need a tiny drop each night.
I understand a lot of the comments saying you could make it yourself as it has quite a lot of simple essential oils in, which I did think at first when I bought it, but really?? Would you go to that effort/would it really be cheaper?
Great combination of products that complement each other very well. I recommend anyone to try it at least just once!

Midnight Recovery Concentrate could be a lot better if it had less silicone and preservatives and more active ingredients. This serum goes on lightly and hydrates well, but so do a host of other serums at a fraction of the price, many of which boast better ingredients. I wanted to love this serum, but I just cannot get over how much junk I have to put on my face with the good stuff. I will not repurchase.

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf on Friday telephoned President of PML-N, Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif and discussed with him the political situation prevailing in the country.
Both the leaders agreed that democracy was the way forward and the people of Pakistan would not allow any attempt to derail the democratic process in the country.
Talking to the Prime Minister, Mian Nawaz Sharif said that Pakistan had lived with the horrors of so-called slogans of revolutions and long marches. He said that the best way to ascertain the people's wishes was through ballot.
The Prime Minister said that the restoration of democracy owed itself to arduous struggle of political forces in the country. He said that the system needed continuity to evolve.
He said that it was a sign of political maturity that all the political forces were on the same page as far as need for continuity of democratic system was concerned.
The Prime Minister said that the government was committed to holding of fair, free and transparent elections in the country as per law and Constitution.
He assured Mian Nawaz Sharif that all necessary steps would be taken to achieve this objective.

Screening Clearly laboratory essential for diagnosis of coagulation abnormalities ? - Can laboratory pick out patients at risk for bleeding with procedures better than history/physical What tests are potentially useful as screening tests? COAGULATION TESTING Prerequisites for Screening Tests Cover broad range of potential abnormalities Sensitive to clinically significant problems of pro- & anti-coagulant proteins Can lead to other confirmatory tests to look for abnormalities Accurate at predicting who is at risk for problems COAGULATION TESTING Potential Screening Tests PT aPTT Fibrinogen Thrombin Time Bleeding Time Problems with hypercoagulation disorders All of above have been extensively used for screening purposes COAGULATION TESTING Screening Tests - Duplicate Tests Thrombin time dependent on fibrinogen, so this is duplicative Clinically significant hypofibrinogenemia picked up by PT & aPTT COAGULATION TESTING Screening Tests PT needed to measure extrinsic pathway aPTT needed to measure intrinsic pathway Bleeding time only true measure for platelet function It was assumed (based on no data) that these tests would predict who would bleed COAGULATION TESTING Screening - Bleeding Time Bioassay Make measured incision in forearm of skin, not over visible blood vessel, under constant hydrostatic pressure Blood gently aspirated from area every 30 seconds, via capillary action Measure time to stop bleeding Difficult to standardize Requires trained technician COAGULATION TESTING Bleeding Time Amount of pressure makes large difference in bleeding time (standard is 40 mm Hg; more reproducible at 80 mm Hg, but most cannot tolerate this) If platelet plug disrupted, results prolonged If incision not precise, results vary If incision horizontal rather than vertical, results vary If vein incised, results prolonged COAGULATION TESTING Screening - Bleeding Time Useful for assessing platelet function in patients with bleeding disorders; however Even with trained technician, bleeding times NOT predictive of who will bleed at procedures, even when markedly prolonged, because false positive rate MUCH too high BLEEDING TIME AS SCREENING TEST DON'T USE IT!!!!

COAGULATION TESTING Screening PT/aPTT At this rate of prevalence, positive predictive value drops to minuscule levels Even though clotting assays are excellent measures of clotting process in general, there are falsely positive tests, & in populations with low disease prevalence, false positives overwhelm true positives COAGULATION TESTING Screening PT/aPTT Why is this important? • Screening tests trivial in price, but • Confirmatory tests are not • Time lost in chasing false positives is problematic • Delay in diagnosis/procedure often not worth the time to chase down results of tests COAGULATION TESTING Who should get screening coags? Those at risk of bleeding • Patients with congenital bleeding disorders • Patients with positive family history of bleeding • Patients on anticoagulants • Patients presenting with bleeding or thrombotic disorders • Patients being placed on anticoagulants • Patients with significant liver disease or alcoholism COAGULATION TESTING Who shouldn't get screening coags? Hospital admissions except as above Preoperative patients unless they fit one of the above categories Preprocedure patients unless they fit one of the above categories COAGULATION TESTING Historical assessment of those at risk History of bleeding problems in the family History of spontaneous bleeding History of heavy menses History of easy bruising History of prior blood transfusion History of prior tooth extractions History of prior surgery/pregnancy

Here, four common emotions that drive women to overeat — and the strategies that can help you resist. continued...
If you eat when you're sad
- Get a daily dose of vitamins and sun. It can help cheer you up, report researchers at the University of Washington School of Nursing. They asked 112 women who were mildly to moderately depressed to walk briskly outside for 20 minutes five days a week and take a daily dose of vitamins (50 mg of vitamins B1, B2, and B6; 400 mcg of folic acid; 400 IU of vitamin D; and 200 mcg of selenium). The women also upped their exposure to bright light, both natural and artificial, during the day. After eight weeks, almost all the women reported feeling less depressed — and 25 percent had lost weight, even though they had not been asked to diet. "Many of the women were eating less at meals, snacking less, and they even mentioned that their cravings for carbs diminished," explains Marie-Annette Brown, Ph.D., coauthor of When Your Body Gets the Blues.
- Watch what you watch. Wansink and his research team found that when people saw the 1970 tearjerker Love Story, they ate about 30 percent more buttered popcorn than when watching the uplifting 2002 flick Sweet HomeAlabama. Don't want to give up sob stories? You can still watch them if you do a little pre-movie reading: When viewers looked at the popcorn's nutrition label before the film started, they cut their munching by about two-thirds.
- Attend religious services. The more often you go, the less likely you are to be overweight. A study from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill found that pious women reported higher activity levels. "One theory is that churchgoers are more likely to believe that their body is a temple of God, so they need to take care of it — which means eating more healthfully and staying active," explains study author Karen Hye-cheon Kim, Ph.D., a professor at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
- Join an online support group. "If you're eating as a substitute for companionship, log on to the Internet instead," suggests Abramson. To find friends — and shed pounds — try joining a Web-based weight-loss program that includes expert counseling and access to chat rooms and message boards. Researchers from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Brown University found that people who followed these types of diet programs lost an average of 13 to 15 pounds in six months.
