Her partnership with Marks & Spencer continues to produce amazing products and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley just unveiled a new summer lingerie range.
The "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" dame models her latest offerings in a sexy spread, including bright berry and mint green hues crafted from silk, lace and floral patterns.
They're both massive stars in the fashion galaxy and Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne are joining forces for yet another exciting adventure.
The 40-year-old supermodel and her 22-year-old mentee were just announced as the new faces of the Autumn/Winter 2015 spread for Mango, after having worked together on Burberry's fragrance ads in March 2014.
Never afraid to display her birthday suit, Chrissy Teigen gets naked and hops into the ocean for her new Summer 2015 spread for DuJour magazine.
Earlier this month she cancelled her wedding with Dakota Meyer and finally Bristol Palin is speaking out on her decision.
The single mom wrote a blog post, stating, "This is a painful time for family and friends and I would just really appreciate your prayers. I feel like I need to address the elephant-in-the-room on this blog, since you guys have been with me through thick and thin. When I first got engaged, you were the first ones I wanted to tell."
She's the baby of the family, so it's no wonder that Kylie Jenner is rushing to play catch-up to her older sisters' flirty photo collections.
The 17-year-old "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star did a desert-style shoot earlier this week, posing a pair of sizzling snaps to her Instagram account on Tuesday (May 26).
She's no stranger to the celebrity romance cycle, but Taylor Swift is still going strong with her handsome EDM beau Calvin Harris.
On Tuesday night (May 26) the "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" songstress stepped out of her Manhattan apartment with her British gentleman and headed over to L'asso restaurant in Little Italy for a gourmet dinner date.
Back in 1991, Keanu Reeves and the late Patrick Swayze thrilled moviegoers with their high-action flick "Point Break," and now Warner Bros is coming out with a remake.
Slated to hit theaters in 2D and 3D on December 25th, the film stars Edgar Ramirez, Luke Bracey, Ray Winstone, Teresa Palmer and Delroy Lindo.
Showing some love for her South American fans, Kim Kardashian is featured on the front of Vogue Brasil's June 2015 edition.
With two different versions of the cover, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star dons blonde hair and channels Marilyn Monroe for the "Body Issue."
"Motherhood changed me in positive ways. It made me more ambitious for my kids. I do everything for them now, because I want this success for my life with them… Directing is a really big decision because it's a year and a half of my life, and it's taking my kids out of their daily routine."

NEW HAVEN, Conn., April 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- VION PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. (OTC Bulletin Board: VION) today announced that the New Drug Application (NDA) for its lead oncology therapeutic Onrigin(TM) (laromustine) Injection has received a standard review classification by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Therefore, a user fee goal date of December 12, 2009 for a decision by the FDA with respect to the approval of the Company's NDA has been established.
The Company had previously announced the acceptance of the NDA filing for review by the FDA on April 16, 2009. The NDA presents data for Onrigin(TM) as a single agent for remission induction treatment for patients sixty years of age or older with de novo poor-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The NDA is based on the results of an international multi-center pivotal Phase II trial of 85 patients sixty years of age or older with de novo poor-risk AML, supplemented by data from 55 patients in a previous Phase II trial in elderly AML. Eighty-six percent of these 140 patients had two or more risk factors that predicted for a poor prognosis.
Alan Kessman, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our level of excitement continues to grow as we move forward in the FDA's process of reviewing our NDA. We will continue to work closely with the FDA on the filing with the objective of achieving approval for Onrigin(TM) in its first indication in the United States." He added, "The positive news today is that we can expect to have an FDA decision this year."

Tom Adams, Del Mar College criminal justice coordinator and instructor
Think before you hit send ...
Please, ladies and gentlemen, remember when you send something out on one of those social networks via computer or cellphone it is forever in the public's domain for the world to see and impossible to withdraw once you press the SEND key. What may seem to you just acting out a secret fantasy from the privacy of your home may well become an issue that will kill your job or security clearance dreams, unless you dream to follow in FORMER Congressman Weiner's footsteps or to be featured in one of Larry Flynt's publications. Take my word for it, investigators DO search those social network sites.

Perry won't do for president
President Obama is being blamed for America's economic woes. Shouldn't Gov. Perry be blamed for Texas' economic woes as well? Look at the deficit Texas has inherited since he has been governor. We don't need experience in how to create a deficit in the White House. We need someone who can solve it and Gov. Perry is not that person.
Abdul Rashid
'Trickle down' not working
The Republicans want to cut taxes on capital gains, as well as on income, property and a whole slew of other areas of taxation. But then, in a country mired in debt, I cannot understand how all that is going to help us. Certainly, it will help the rich.
The theory is that the success of the rich will trickle down to us in terms of more jobs, etc. However, past statistics have shown this is not always the case. I think increasing the tax base, rather than eroding it, is the way to go for now.
Our hesitancy in facing issues directly is hampering our progress in reducing our national debt. Time to get tough and let austerity take hold in our decisions until we can reduce spending. Period.
Ramiro R.J. Molina, Austin
Gerrymandering must stop
The four additional Texas U.S. representatives should reflect the Texas census increases which mostly represent an increase in the number of American Hispanics. Hispanics and their veterans demand their American right to equal representation.
Hispanics are mostly Democrats because Republicans refuse to adequately provide them a voice in educational opportunities, business services and now the 2011 Texas redistricting consideration. Across America, Republicans are denying Hispanics their American right for uniform representation by gerrymandering the redistricting process, which is absolutely illegal.
Here in Texas, single-party gerrymandering is a nefarious practice that must be stopped in the courts at all cost. Denying Texas' Hispanics their choice of an elected official, which includes U.S. Rep. Doggett, state Senator Judith Zaffarini and Representative Wendy Davis, is discriminatory, absurd and malicious.
LULAC has recently filed a lawsuit against Texas' unfair redistricting process. The gerrymandered representative maps are entwined to divide counties and dilute Hispanic votes. This further division will cause lower Hispanic voter turnout. These devious redistricting deeds will have to be settled in the courts since the current Texas legislators will not listen. American Hispanics pay an equal rate of taxes and thus they should get equal and fair representation in U.S. Congress and in their own beloved state of Texas.

Medical-device companies are educating key Democrats to build support to repeal the 2.3% medical device tax that took effect in January. Events organized by trade groups such as AdvaMed, as well as company tours and a letter circulated among Senate Democrats last year, have helped the cause gain bipartisan support. Minnesota's senators have been talking with President Barack Obama to soften his stance as well. "I think that there has been some renewed understanding on the president's part," said Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn.

Im not real picky but do have standards so if we have chemistry we will have fun in what ever we do
First dates are usually awkward, so any place where we can be ourselves and get to know each other.
a nice diner, and maybe ride around, talking,

Blackwell's Jayden Jones has made some big jumps since he took up pole vaulting as an eighth grader.
Not only is he the school's record holder in the event, but Jones will be defending his title at the Class 1A, Division II state track meet in Austin's Mike A. Myers Stadium on Saturday.
Jones, a senior, had a terrific 2013 debut when he soared 13 feet, 6 inches — nine inches higher than his nearest competitor — last year in his first appearance at the state meet. However, he exceeded that by clearing 13-9 at the regional meet in San Angelo to earn a second trip to Austin.
But as his high school career winds down, Jones is preparing for an even bigger leap. Next year he will be pole vaulting collegiately at the highest level — NCAA Division I — after signing a national letter of intent Tuesday with Abilene Christian University.
ACU's track program joined Division I this year after long being among the nation's best in Division II.
Jones — also an all-state running back and linebacker on Blackwell's football team that made the playoffs the past two years — said he became interested in pole vaulting in junior high and decided to try it after getting encouragement from his principal, Bryan Ship-man, and others.
"He said I would be good at it. But I had to overcome the fear of being in the air," Jones said. "You just have to keep working at it and being aggressive.
"This (going to state again this weekend) is definitely the highlight for me."
Jones may have a tougher time winning at state this year since he was only third at regionals, though his 13-9 matched the height of Water Valley's Seth Demere. He got in as a "wild card" qualifier by having the best third-place height among all athletes who competed in the state's four regions.
Jones' biggest challengers Saturday will likely be Demere and Eula's Taylor Gill, who went 15-0 at the regional meet and has gone an area-best 16-0 1/4.
None of the other six Class 1A, Division II state vaulters qualified with jumps of higher than 12 feet.
"Honestly, if I do the best I can do (Saturday) I'll be happy," said Jones, whose goal is 14-6 but thinks 12-6 or better will be enough to win a top-3 medal.
He said he might be even more nervous about going to Austin this year because it's his last time to compete at the high school level, but he's very excited about making the trip to the University of Texas campus. "They have awesome facilities for jumping there," he said.

South Bay League football preview
Coach: Brian Hay, fourth year.
Key players: Will Clark (QB-DE), Rommel Cooper (RB), Adrian Nuno (OL), Maxx Valenzuela (OL), Anthony Tapia (OL), Stephin Garcia (OL), Trevay Turner (DB), Justin Peoples (RB-DB), Ruben Gonzales (RB-DB).
Scouting report: Hay called this team unlike any other he has seen so far and is predicting a far better season than last year's campaign. The team is stacked with talent at running back and defensive back, and Hay said Clark "looks great" at quarterback. The only thing that could stifle Mar Vista's rise is a lack of overall depth. If the team can stay healthy, it could be a playoff year.
Coach: Gary Pugh, fourth year.
Key players: Tim Johnson (RB-DB), Keondre Moore (RB-DB), Miguel Abrego (RB-LB), Omar Rios (OL-DL), Abel Herrera (OL-DL), George Araujo (WB-DB), Jonathan Bastien (OL-DL), Arnoldo Carbajal (RB-LB).
Scouting report: When San Ysidro dropped its junior varsity team last year because of a lack of numbers, it was a blow to the development of the football program. But those players who moved up to varsity gained valuable experience. The school plans to have a junior varsity team this season but no freshman squad, moving the ninth-graders up to JV. Pugh calls this year's varsity group a hard-working bunch. Johnson returns as the most experienced running back in a stable of about four or five who could see work in a committee system. Johnson is a smaller back (5-6, 145) but shifty and elusive. Herrera (6-0, 260) and Bastien (5-11, 240) bring size to the line.
Coach: Mike Esposito, first year.
Key players: Maris Boldridge (WR), Lamar Weston (QB), David Leon (WR), Ismael Guerrero (K), Taylor Dutcher (OL), Enrique Sanchez (TE), Josh Brown (LB), Juan Padilla (LB), Piere Davis (RB), Christian DeGuzman (DB).
Scouting report: Esposito called the team's greatest weakness its greatest strength — youth. "It could help us in the future," he said. There isn't much returning from last season. Esposito expects the team to take some licks but hopes it will help fortify the program for the future. Brown and Padilla will be the leaders on defense. Weston, a good athlete, will run the offense.

Avian flu on tap in Asia-Pacific aviation execs' meet
More News from Jerome Aning
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
MANILA, Philippines—A conference of executives from aviation regulatory agencies, airports and airlines in the Asia-Pacific region is scheduled to open in Manila on Monday with discussions on collaboration in medical emergency situations such as the avian flu on top of its agenda.
The 6th International Civil Aviation Organization (Icao) Collaborative Arrangement for the Prevention and Management of Public Health Events in Civil Aviation (Capsca) Asia Pacific coordination meeting will begin Monday at the Diamond Hotel along Roxas Boulevard.
Hosted by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP), the four-day meeting will cover highlights of Capsca project activities in the other Icao regions; recent developments and implementation of International Health Regulations crafted by the World Health Organization in 2005; business continuity planning for airports and air carriers and other state experiences in preparedness planning and response; and updates on the Novel Corona Influenza A (H7N9) virus.
The H7N9 avian flu outbreak in China has both international health and travel authorities worried. Around 100 people have gotten sick with H7N9, 18 of whom have died.
Delegations from Brunei, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Solomon Islands, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Nepal and Thailand will be joined by WHO, Icao, Montreal-based Airport Council International, Asia-Europe Foundation and Association of Asia Pacific Airlines representatives.
CAAP Director General William Hotchkisss III will lead the opening ceremony, while Dr. Anthony Evans, chief of Icao's aviation medicine section and Capsca global project manager, will preside over the program.

GOVERNMENT CAMP, Ore. -- If you don t have a camping spot reserved for Memorial Day Weekend, don t panic just yet.
U.S Forest Service officials said most of the roughly 85 campgrounds in the Mt. Hood National Forest will be open for the holiday weekend, thanks to early snow melt.
So, most everything is open, said Kathleen Walker, who works at the Zig Zag Ranger Station off of U.S. Highway 26. Whereas in the last three to four years, you know, the Trillium Lakes, the Frog Lakes, those higher elevation campgrounds were basically still snowed in on Memorial Day weekend.
On Thursday, campers like Rafael Martinez were eager to head to the high country.
He and his family drove up from Portland with hopes of snagging a spot at the Trillium Lake Campground. When they realized the campground wasn't going to open until Friday, they improvised and set up camp off the road.
We went up to a Trillium camp site and they were closed down so we kind of set up shop right off the side right here, he said.
While reservations have been going quickly, especially for the more popular campgrounds , Walker said spots will still be available at the last minute.
She also said many of the campgrounds keep 20 percent of the camp sites open for people who arrive on a first-come, first-serve basis.
To find an available spotclick here
Walker also urged people to call the Zig Zag Ranger Station for information on camp sites at 503-622-3191.

The development nightmare that is this suburb makes Chandrashekar Hariharan re-stress the need for energy-efficient buildings
He is an investment banker. He lives in a suburb that is touted to be one of the fastest growing realty urban pockets. His house is centrally air-conditioned. He has fresh water 24/7. He has neighbours who he barely knows. He commutes 100 minutes to get to the heart of the city if he has to. He piles up work in a way that he clusters three workdays in a week (and he can afford to do that because he is on his own).
Behind the thin veneer of comfort and ultra-convenience, there is a nightmare out there that he doesn't know who is solving. The power outages exceed four hours, so every home has gen-sets, with staggering diesel consumption. Water comes from tankers lugged in from the outlying areas. The exploitation of water from the deep aquifers through borewells has been rapidly depleting groundwater. Waste management consists of dumping outside the swank neighbourhood.
This paradise is called Gurgaon. And it's extending now to Manesar.
The investment banker above admits candidly, "I have no solutions. I know there is a time bomb ticking away somewhere. I don't expect water to be available for more than three to four years. I expect the government to bring to the table abiding solutions." I ask if he will initiate measures on his own. He thinks, then replies: "The question is not one of cost; I can afford it. It is a question of who will do this. I have not yet met anyone who has talked about solutions that can be retrofitted for electricity, water, AC and waste." He is certain, however, that if somebody could come up with a solution, not only him but many of his neighbours would sign up.
This lies at the centre of the challenges that new urban India faces. That's why we talk of energy-efficient buildings. We are talking of independence from the chaos of energy and water management; of reducing the demand for fresh water by at least 30 per cent; reducing the demand for energy by 70-80 per cent.
The stakeholders are the government (policy-making); builders, manufacturers, architects and engineers (products and technology); and consumers themselves (the ones who live in the homes). The media is a stakeholder that has to make people see the need for such a change.
Builders have to begin offering constructions that already fit these criteria without the nightmare of retrofitting solutions. How can they talk to the 150-180 vendors and service-providers and start greening the supply chain? Over 95 per cent of India's buildings continue to be built by promoters who have the money and know-how but are simply not interested in the legacy of deficit that their buildings leave for the city's future civic infrastructure.
This writer among many others has outlined many solutions that are simple, doable, and eminently affordable. The challenge is not of technology or solutions. The challenge is of not enough branding for green products because these companies are small, and therefore not known to consumers.
Zero-energy homes and home appliances are key. China has brought a dramatic change in the quality and scale of production. Such change has been visible and obvious in the car industry, too, with per-gallon fuel efficiency going up from 8 km in the 1960s to over 100 km today. From Gurgaon to Guwahati, India will have to bring in such smart changes into the building industry and local planning as well.
The writer is executive chairman and co-founder, BCIL ZED Homes. Mail him at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Keywords: Gurgaon, town planning, real estate

News abounds on the internet today about your New Orleans Saints. Tasty, delectable news. So, here's Saints Linkage for you.
Linebacker Jonathan Vilma went to Philadelphia on Monday to get a second opinion on his groin, which he injured in Friday night's win over San Diego.
Darren Sharper and Clint Ingram have called the PUP list their home since July 28. The question is, will they continue to. Sean Payton has two tough decisions to make in regard to them both.
Kendrick Clancy was close to retiring when he decided to lace up his boots again for the New Orleans Saints.
Meanwhile, Sean Payton is not a very big fan of a new NFL rule that he thinks changes the Saints' offensive rhythm.
Elsewhere around the Interweb:
Saints assistant Travis Jones is suspended for 30 days for his role in a real estate scam.
Brian Allee-Walsh says Kendrick Clancy has three days to show he's worth the team's time.
Brett Martel of the Associated Press writes that the Saints have tough personnel decisions to make.
The Opelousas Daily World writes that the Saints' offense is still searching for perfection.
James Varney of the T-P/NOLa.com group listened to Mickey Loomis speak and writes that the Saints' GM has several reasons why the team won't repeat and why they will repeat.
T-P/NOLA.com columnist Jeff Duncan explains what the signing of Kendrick Clancy means.
Nationally speaking:
John Clayton ranks the NFL's quarterbacks and it will spark a debate amongst Saints fans.
Pat Yasinskas of ESPN.com ranks the NFC South's top defensive tackles. Sed Ellis is on it.
SI.com's Peter King writes about the new NFL rule regarding umpire placement and how no one likes it.
Bob Wolfley of the Milwaukee Sun Sentinel says a poll of NFLplayers picks the Saints to repeat.
Brian Burke writes for the New York Times about why passing is more important than running.
And while I'm not a big TMZ fan,I thought this was interesting - Lakers player DerekFisher has been tabbed as the Saints' opening game guest speaker.

Mansion is one of the Guerrilla Mode maps in Future Soldier. It's set in front of a giant mansion, but you cannot enter the Mansion. The whole map is a wide open rural area.
"A strong enemy presence has been spotted lurking around this old mansion. Outbuildings and trees make for a dangerous battlefield full of shadows, with hostiles waiting around every corner."

In March 1997, my dad had a small stroke. Unlike most men, he went to a doctor to discuss his symptoms—weakness on his right side, a problem with balance, blurred vision. Two years later, he was gone, a victim of a fall down a flight of stairs at our home.
He was only 59, a little more than a decade beyond where I am right now. When I reach that age, my daughters will be in their mid-twenties, when life is just opening up for them. And I guarantee you, I plan to be there for them, even if all they want from me is a loan to tide them over until payday.
In fact, there's a lot I still want to experience in life. Often, my personal to-do list is shunted to #3 on the priority list, behind family and work obligations.
But I promise you, I intend to get to the stuff I want to do, which is one of the reasons I wrote The Better Man Project. It's all about motivation and strategy that will engage guys—like me, like you, maybe like your dad—in the DIY projects that will improve their lives right now. It'll help us all tackle problems like too much weight and too few workouts, plus a healthy dose of relationship rehab to keep love ones close, and bed sheets smokin'.
Of course, none of that will happen for me if, like my dad, I check out early. Perhaps you worry about the same? Let's face it: A lot of men die young. In fact, guys between the ages of 20 and 40 are twice as likely to die as women. One big reason: We ignore our symptoms, even dizzy spells or chest pains, without scheduling the potentially life-saving session with a white coat.
Not long ago, we asked writer Allen St. John to put together a list of 7 pains men should never ignore. These are not negotiable. If you feel one, call your doctor right away. And then thank me, on your 60th birthday. It's one my dad never saw, but you and I will both want to party through.

What it feels like: It's as if you were kicked below the belt, but the pain is not quite as intense. Sometimes, it's accompanied by swelling.
What it is: It's probably called testicular torsion. Normally, a man's testicles are attached to his body in two ways: by the spermatic cords, which run into the abdomen, and by fleshy anchors near the scrotum.
But sometimes, in a relatively common congenital defect, these anchors are missing. This allows one of the spermatic cords to get twisted, which cuts off the flow of blood to the testicle. "If you catch it in 4 to 6 hours, you can usually save the testicle," says Jon Pryor, M.D., a urologist with the University of Minnesota. "But after 12 to 24 hours, you'll probably lose it."
Another possible cause: an infection of the epididymis, your sperm-storage facility.
How to fix it: A surgeon will straighten the cord, and then construct artificial anchors with a few stitches near the scrotum. If it's just an infection, antibiotics will take care of it quickly.

What it feels like: Similar to the kind of agony you'd expect if you'd tried to bench press an armoire. The usual remedies—heat, rest, OTC painkillers—offer no relief.
What it is: "If it's not related to exercise, sudden severe back pain can be the sign of an aneurysm," says Sigfried Kra, M.D., an associate professor at the Yale school of medicine. Particularly troubling is an abdominal aneurysm, a dangerous weakening of the aorta just above the kidneys. If it bursts, you'll die within minutes.
A less threatening possibility: You have a kidney stone. More pain, but you'll only wish you were dead.
How to fix it: Once the aneurysm's dimensions are determined, via a CT scan, it'll be treated with blood-pressure medication or surgery to implant a synthetic graft.
What it feels like: A nagging pain in the top of your foot or the front of your shin that's worse when you exercise, but present even at rest. It's impervious to ibuprofen and acetaminophen.
What it is: Probably a stress fracture. Bones, like all the other tissues in your body, are continually regenerating themselves. "But if you're training so hard that the bone doesn't get a chance to heal itself, a stress fracture can develop," explains Andrew Feldman, M.D., the team physician for the New York Rangers. Eventually, the bone can be permanently weakened.
How to fix it: You'll be told to stop all running until the crack heals. Worst case, you'll be in a cast for a few weeks.
What it feels like: All the metaphors apply—knife in the gut, bullet in the belly, skewer in the stomach—except this attack is from within.
Related: The 25 Best Ab Exercises
What it is: Since the area between your ribs and your hips is jam-packed with organs, the pain can be a symptom of either appendicitis, pancreatitis, or an inflamed gallbladder. In all three cases, the cause is the same: Something has blocked up the organ in question, resulting in a potentially fatal infection. Exploding organs can kill a guy. See a doctor before this happens.
How to fix it: If the pain is in your lower-right abdomen and your white-blood-cell count is up, says Dr. Kra, it's probably appendicitis (out comes the appendix).
Pain in your upper abdomen with high white blood cells usually spells an inflamed gallbladder (goodbye, gallbladder).
And if it hurts below your breastbone and certain enzymes in the blood are elevated, then pancreatitis is probably the culprit. (The pancreas stays, but a gallstone may be blocking things up. If so, the stone and the gallbladder may have to come out.)
What it feels like: A heavy ache that comes on suddenly and then goes away just as quickly. Otherwise, you feel fine.
What it is: It could be indigestion. Or it could be a heart attack. "Even if it's very short in duration, it can be a sign of something serious," says John Stamatos, M.D., medical director of North Shore Pain Services in Long Island and author of Painbuster.
Here's how serious: A blood clot may have lodged in a narrowed section of a coronary artery, completely cutting off the flow of blood to one section of your heart.
How much wait-and-see time do you have? Really, none. Fifty percent of deaths from heart attacks occur within 3 to 4 hours of the first symptoms. You're literally living on borrowed time.
How to fix it: A blood test checks for markers of damaged heart tissue. Treatment: angioplasty or bypass.
What it feels like: Specifically, one of your calves is killing you. It's swollen and tender to the touch, and may even feel warm, as if it's being slow-roasted from the inside out.
What it is: Maybe deep-vein thrombosis, or DVT, which occurs when blood pools in your lower legs and forms a clot. Next thing you know, that clot is big enough to block a vein in your calf, producing pain and swelling.
Unfortunately, the first thing you'll probably want to do—rub your leg—is also the worst thing. "It can send a big clot running up to your lung, where it can kill you," warns Dr. Stamatos.
How to fix it: Doctors will try to dissolve the clot with drugs, or outfit vulnerable veins with filters to stop a clot before it stops you.
What it feels like: Relieving yourself has become an exercise in expletives, and your urine has a rusty tint.
Related: 4 Things You Never Want to See in Your Pee
What it is: Worst case? Bladder cancer, according to Joseph A. Smith, M.D., chairman of the department of urologic surgery at Vanderbilt University. The pain and the blood in your urine are symptoms of this, the fourth most common cancer in men.
Smoking is the biggest risk factor. Catch the disease early, and there's a 90 percent chance of fixing it. Bladder infections share the same symptoms.
How to fix it: Doctors diagnose this by process of elimination. Urinalysis first, to rule out bugs, followed by inserting a scope to look inside the bladder. If you have a tumor, it'll be treated with surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy.
By Bill Phillips, Editor-in-Chief of Men's Health and the author of The Better Man Project, with reporting by Allen St. John

Grappling with Mortality and the Rising Sea Level in Ben Lerner's Novel 10:04
Wednesday, September 03, 2014
Ben Lerner's first novel, Leaving the Atocha Station, won a Believer Book Award and was named a best book of the year by The New Yorker, The Guardian and New York magazine. The story follows an American poet living in Madrid, wandering around the city pursuing women. Lerner's latest novel, 10:04, picks up where his first book leaves off. The narrator has enjoyed unlikely literary success, has been diagnosed with a potentially fatal medical condition, and has been asked by his best friend to help her conceive a child. The novel deals with the prospect of fatherhood in a city that might soon be underwater.

— The Atlanta Braves are supplying the field, the National League manager and one-sixth of the NL roster for the All-Star game. And as a bonus, they won't have to hit against Pedro Martinez.
Martinez, the MVP of last year's game at Fenway Park after striking out five in two innings, was left off the American League team Wednesday, apparently at the request of the Boston Red Sox.
Martinez, whose strained muscle on his left side has improved to the point where he's scheduled to be activate after the All-Star break, said he was ready to pitch in Tuesday's game.
Red Sox manager Jimy Williams spoke with Joe Torre of the Yankees, manager of the AL team, but wouldn't say who decided to drop the AL Cy Young Award winner.
"The way this has shaken out is this is the right way to do things," Williams said.
Martinez is not on the AL's 31-man roster, but he will be introduced as if he was an All-Star and will sit on the AL bench during the game.
"I'd hate to be the one responsible for having him pitch in an All-Star game — when he hasn't pitched for his team — and having him get hurt," Torre said today.
Galarraga Ready to Shine
Baltimore's Cal Ripken, elected for what would be his 17th straight start and 18th appearance, will try to play third base despite a sore back, which has him on the disabled list. Torre said a decision would be made this weekend.
Cleveland's Manny Ramirez, elected by fans to start in the outfield, is on the disabled list with a strained hamstring and will miss the game.
Under baseball's rules, a player can be on the disabled list and appear in the All-Star game.
Andres Galarraga, who missed all of 1999 while undergoing treatment for cancer, heads the list of Braves ready to shine before the hometown fans.
"I thank God for giving me my health and all the beautiful and happy things that have happened to me this year," Galarraga said. "It's a gift."
McGwire Joined by Teammates
Outfielder Andruw Jones and pitchers Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine also were selected by Atlanta's Bobby Cox, the NL manager, and join Chipper Jones, elected to start at third.
Mark McGwire of the Cardinals, elected to start at first base, will be joined by two teammates, right-hander Darryl Kile and outfielder Jim Edmonds. McGwire had threatened not to play unless Edmonds was picked as a reserve.
"I'm very happy for him, he deserves it," McGwire said. "He's the big reason why we're in the position we are today [first place in the NL Central]."
Will Wells Start?
With Martinez out, Toronto's David Wells is the leading contender to start for the AL.
"If it happens, fine. If not, it's no big deal," Wells said. "I'm just going to go out there and take my turn. I'm sure this will mean more to me when I'm retired and an old guy."
Cox said he hadn't ruled out Arizona's Randy Johnson or Maddux as starters, even though they're scheduled to start Sunday.
"Randy said he could go an inning," Cox said. "Greg Maddux, he also is good for an inning. Which innings those are going to be, I can't say now."
Thomas, Thome Angry
The Yankees and Indians have four players each on the AL team and the Chicago White Sox, who have the best record in baseball, have three along with Boston and Oakland.

Men's Health
Well, if a man and his partner don't mind how long it takes him to ejaculate, then it really doesn't matter. For example, Ian Kerner, PhD, a sex therapist and author of She Comes First, advises men to bring their partners to the brink of orgasm before having intercourse. Then, if he's prone to premature ejaculation, it doesn't matter since both of them come away satisfied.

We all feel like we run in circles sometimes. Jeff Gordon does it for a living. The 36-year-old NASCAR legend races and trains almost every day, clocking speeds of 180+ miles per hour, for hours at a time. Unlike most of us, who can afford a little a daydreaming when our daily routine gets a bit dull, distractions for Gordon can be deadly. He needs his mind focused at all times on his car, on the track, and on the other racers surrounding him. Gordon has been racing for three decades, for half...

Conversely, if a man takes longer than average to ejaculate, but both partners enjoy marathon sex sessions, then delayed ejaculation can be a real plus.
However, some men do mind how long it takes them to ejaculate. They mind a lot -- and so do their partners. But while the mind often plays a big role in creating ejaculation problems, it's also key in overcoming them. Here are some tips on what to do.
Common Ejaculation Problems
When it comes to ejaculation, there are basically three different things that can go wrong.
- Premature ejaculation is by far the biggest complaint that men have about their sexual performance. After studying data gathered by the National Health and Social Life Survey, sociologist Edward Laumann, PhD, estimated that a third of American men complain that they ejaculate too quickly. They want to last longer during intercourse to prolong the pleasure, both for themselves and their partners.
- Delayed ejaculation (or retarded ejaculation) affects a much smaller number of men - as few as 3%, according to some estimates. It's one of the most poorly understood ejaculation problems. Some men cannot reach orgasm at all, at least not with a partner.
Retrograde ejaculation is the least common of the ejaculation problems. It causes semen to back into the bladder during orgasm instead of exiting by way of the penis. The semen is then later flushed out when you urinate.
Retrograde ejaculation can be caused by diabetes, nerve damage, various medications, and surgery that disturbs the sphincter muscle. It's harmless and won't interfere with the feeling of orgasm. (It can also make for an easy post-sex clean-up.) But since it does affect fertility, some men may need treatment if their partners are trying to get pregnant.

Perhaps he was hoping to tear our love for continuity (and sanity) apart from the inside out. Or perhaps Leland threw a whole pile of EU crap on his desk and Abrams glanced through it. He saw Cad Bane, and he saw some Chiss. And he became very confused. And he showed the photos to George who was like, "Ah hell JJ, don't ask me this stuff. That guy with the hat is Dave's and that guy in the white suit is some really bad photoshopping." And so Abrams came to us for help.

: What is the path available to a sincere seeker of truth? Not all the Vedas, the books, the philosophy, etc., are really capable of imparting the realisation of truth, Jnana.
The Bhagavad Gita makes this fact absolutely explicit with regard to these esoteric matters. Lord Krishna first describes the attitude of the person in search of truth — constant effort, humility, and service to the great realised souls and then states that truth is obtained only from such realised souls who are witnesses to it. In a lecture, Srimati Jaya Srinivasan said that the ability to perceive the Lord in all aspects of creation is the highest state of realisation and Saint Tulsi Das was blessed to be in that realised state. He always beheld the all pervasiveness of Lord Rama in his heart at all times.
It is believed that in Treta Yuga, when Rama and Lakshmana were totally at a loss in the woods after Sita had been taken away by Ravana, Rama gives vent to the pangs of separation from Sita and begins to ask the trees in Panchavati, the waters of the Godavari, etc., if they had seen Sita. At that time, Lord Siva and Sati came to Dandakaranya and saw this scene filled with pathos. Siva paid obeisance to Rama and Sati then wondered why he did so.
To her, Rama appeared as an ordinary man pining for his lost wife. Siva divined Sati's doubt and wished she should obtain the knowledge of truth. Sati appeared before Rama as Sita but Rama did not react as if He had seen Sita. He instead identified her as Sati and enquired about Siva. Sati understood the all pervasive Rama/Sita Truth. She prostrated at His feet.
Rama also made her realise that Sita was never separated from Him and that this display of human emotions is a part of His Lila for the sake of suffering humanity to learn to cope with the challenges of life that an individual faces as a result of his past Karma. Divine experience is a unique one and the realised souls cherish and revel in this. Prahlada implicitly believed in God's all pervasiveness and tried to convince his father. In his perception, the Lord dwelt as much in him as in his father or in the pillar.

Profiled by PBS, a cover girl on National Geographic. Then in 2001, Robin Williams asked to to pay a visit. "She was very drawn to him," Patterson said. She took his glasses and ended up wearing them. She picked his pocket and investigated his wallet. But mostly she asked for him to tickle her. Patterson says he was quiet, respectful and present.
Though this was their one and only face to face meeting, Ko ko was familiar with Robin Williams. She had recently watched a documentary he did on dolphins, and she'd watched "Awakenings" over and over.
Ko ko is known for having a bit of an obsession with a certain body part. "She did this and her translator said she wants you to lift your shirt...and I lifted my shirt. She reached out and grabbed both my nipples and I went 'I like you,'" Williams said in an interview. "All of a sudden she grabs my hand and tries to take me in the back and I see her translator go 'Ko Ko no. Mr. Williams does not want to play bump bump,'" he said.
Back in 2001, Ko Ko was 30 years old and sad about the death of her companion ape named Michael. She hadn't smiled in 6 months, until this funnyman tickled her fancy. Penny patterson says Ko Ko knew something was amiss from listening to phone calls on Monday. "I just said Ko Ko we've lost a dear friend, you remember Robin?"
How could she, or we, forget him.

Top Gear: the anthology of poetry
We asked you all to compose odes to Top Gear for National Poetry Day. Here are the very best...
Posted: 03 Oct 2013
Since I was a small child,
No older than six or maybe seven,
Motors have driven me wild,
I dreamed of a V8 heaven.
From Vauxhalls to Rollers,
Golfs, Fiestas and Corollas,
Rotaries and straight sixes,
All spurred on by my dad's under bonnet fixes.
I remember Quentin and Noel when I was a lad,
Now it's Jezza, May and Hamster driving us mad!
I found a passion for the peddle,
That makes me go faster,
On teenage road trips from Brighton to Lancaster!
The Allman Brothers' Jessica would be all I could hear and still is, even now, on the modern classic, the awesome TOP GEAR!

Rating Change #9
Pike Electric Corporation (PIKE) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from buy to hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, impressive record of earnings per share growth and compelling growth in net income. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself and poor profit margins.
Highlights from the ratings report include:
- PIKE's revenue growth has slightly outpaced the industry average of 9.1%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 15.8%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- PIKE ELECTRIC CORP reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past year. We feel that this trend should continue. This trend suggests that the performance of the business is improving. During the past fiscal year, PIKE ELECTRIC CORP turned its bottom line around by earning $0.04 versus -$0.40 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($0.42 versus $0.04).
- Despite currently having a low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.42, it is higher than that of the industry average, inferring that management of debt levels may need to be evaluated further. Despite the fact that PIKE's debt-to-equity ratio is mixed in its results, the company's quick ratio of 1.95 is high and demonstrates strong liquidity.
- The gross profit margin for PIKE ELECTRIC CORP is rather low; currently it is at 20.40%. Regardless of PIKE's low profit margin, it has managed to increase from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, PIKE's net profit margin of 2.80% compares favorably to the industry average.
- PIKE has underperformed the S&P 500 Index, declining 16.57% from its price level of one year ago. Looking ahead, other than the push or pull of the broad market, we do not see anything in the company's numbers that may help reverse the decline experienced over the past 12 months. Despite the past decline, the stock is still selling for more than most others in its industry.
Pike Electric Corporation provides energy solutions for investor-owned, municipal, and co-operative utilities in the United States. The company has a P/E ratio of 28.3, below the average materials & construction industry P/E ratio of 44.2 and above the S&P 500 P/E ratio of 17.7. Pike Electric has a market cap of $276.5 million and is part of the industrial goods sector and materials & construction industry. Shares are up 10% year to date as of the close of trading on Thursday.You can view the full Pike Electric Ratings Report or get investment ideas from our investment research center.
