EW's latest cover is an all-access, exclusive peek behind the scenes of next summer's highly anticipated musical comedy Pitch Perfect 2. The movie takes place 3 years after the first film, with the Barden Bellas ruling the collegiate a cappella world. But then something happens. "They are prohibited—and I won't say why—from competing at the collegiate level," says director Elizabeth Banks, who produced the original and appears again as judge Gail. "So they are sort of forced to enter a professional world competition in order to be reinstated." Here's what else you need to know about PP2. READ FULL STORY

Nick Damici talks about werewolf movie 'Late Phases' and 'Hap and Leonard'
How did actor Nick Damici prepare to play a blind army vet in the new werewolf movie Late Phases? Painfully, it seems.
'Mean Girls' reunion: Could there be a sequel -- and which stars would be up for it?
It's been a decade since Mean Girls was released, but affection for the film only seems to get stronger with each passing year. Tina Fey has already announced that a stage musical is in development—but could the Plastics ever team up for another big-screen outing? (Paramount did release a straight-to-DVD sequel in 2011.)
For our Reunions issue, on stands now, EW asked each actress—as well as Fey—whether they'd want to revisit the Girls. READ FULL STORY
EW's 'Mean Girls' reunion: The cast looks back on the 2004 hit
One sure sign of a film's legacy: Does it inspire its own holiday?
If you happened to be anywhere near the Internet on Oct. 3, you probably noticed an outpouring of nostalgia for 2004's Mean Girls. The reason? A throwaway line uttered by Lindsay Lohan's Cady: "It's October 3rd."
That may seem a pretty slim thread to hang an entire day on, but it's indicative of the fervent fan base for this new-classic teen comedy. Written by Tina Fey and directed by Mark Waters (Vampire Academy), Mean Girls stars Lohan as a high school student at a new school who infiltrates the Plastics, a group of nasty popular girls led by queen bee Regina (Rachel McAdams) and her underlings: insecure Gretchen (Lacey Chabert) and dumb-as-a-stump Karen (Amanda Seyfried). The film became a surprise sleeper hit, earning $129 million worldwide and gaining an even bigger following on DVD. In the decade since, Mean Girls has joined Clueless and Sixteen Candles in the teen-comedy canon.
For its 10th anniversary, EW invited the film's female leads to our own little pep rally, where they talked about their memories, behind-the-scenes magic, and what they think their characters would be doing now. READ FULL STORY
'Refuge' director talks about his pandemic apocalypse movie
In the new independent horror movie Refuge, Carter Roy, Amy Rutberg, and young actress Eva Grace Kellner play a family trying to survive in a post-apocalyptic world where the population has been almost entirely wiped out by disease. Given recent, panic-causing news events, the film could hardly be more topical. So what is it like to have made a movie about a global pandemic just as people are reaching for their face masks? "It's incredibly coincidental that it's peaking right now," says Refuge director Andrew Robertson, whose film recently played the Toronto After Dark and L.A.-based Screamfest genre festivals. "It's certainly not something that we would want to exploit. The particular nature of this extinction event just happens to be a plague. But there are so many other things that we have anxiety about: nuclear war, or asteroids hitting the earth, or climate change." And a "Happy Halloween!" to you too, sir!
Box office preview: 'Ouija' faces off against 'John Wick'
Keanu Reeves, once one of Hollywood's most bankable stars, will be competing against a board game thriller this weekend as John Wick opens against Ouija. In this case, it looks like the teen screamers might have the edge despite the overall stellar reviews for Reeves' revenge pic—the latest R-rated film to hit a particularly crowded market. St. Vincent also expands nationwide after playing for two weeks in limited release, but its unlikely to crack the top five.
Here's how things might play out:
John Cleese denies retirement reports
John Cleese says movie casting directors should not be put off from hiring him by recent reports that the Monty Python comedy legend is retiring from films.
"Sometimes you read these things and you say, 'I don't remember saying that,'" explains Cleese, 74, whose acting credits include fellow Python Terry Gilliam's 1981 film Time Bandits, 1988's Cleese-written A Fish Called Wanda, and two of the Harry Potter films. "What I would say is, when you get to my age, the number of parts that you get offered is very, very small. They're not looking for 75-year-old comedians most of the time. I have been offered a large part in a movie which, if they get the finance together, will happen in the spring. But that doesn't happen a lot. What I did say is that I don't enjoy movies very much. Terry Gilliam, who has nothing better to do with his life, loves to have movies because it structures him and gives him a purpose, which otherwise he lacks. I don't like the way that they take your life over."
Meet the female producers smashing Hollywood's glass ceiling
Q. What do Lincoln, E.T., The Color Purple, War of the Worlds, Jurassic Park, 12 Years a Slave, Eat Pray Love, A Mighty Heart, World War Z, Jane Eyre, Saving Mr. Banks, Proof, Elizabeth, The Master, American Hustle, Zero Dark Thirty, Her, The Dark Knight, Man of Steel, Inception, Hustle & Flow, The Hunger Games, Monsters, Inc., A Bug's Life, and Toy Story 3 have in common?
A. They were all produced by women.
Look around. Female producers are everywhere: Shepherding the new Star Wars trilogy. Bringing the latest Hunger Games to theaters. And in February, when Oscar night rolls around, 11 women could be competing to take the stage when the Best Picture prize is announced.
It's an impressive—and improbable—feat. The large number of successful female producers working on Hollywood's most important films today belies some pretty depressing statistics: According to a 2012 study conducted by the Los Angeles Times, women make up only 18 percent of the producers' branch of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

Leonardo DiCaprio's Appian Way and Langley Park eye 'American Wolf'
No, American Wolf is not a follow-up to The Wolf of Wall Street. It's actually a tale of the female alpha wolf (the "06") who'd captivated the scientific and tourist community only to be shot by a hunter outside of Yellowstone National Park in 2012, and Leonardo DiCaprio's production banner Appian Way is teaming up with Kevin McCormick's Langley Park to secure the film rights, sources tell EW. The deal is not closed yet, though.
Nate Blakeslee, a Senior Editor at Texas Monthly, sold his book proposal for the story earlier this week for a reported seven-figures. According to The Hollywood Reporter, it inspired some enthusiastic bidding between various production companies, including New Regency and ImageMovers.
The story will focus on the impact Wolf 832F, or 06 (called that because she was born in 2006), had on the humans around her, the business of wolf-watching at Yellowstone, and the public outrage at the hunter, whom Blakeslee was able to track down.
Box office preview: Denzel Washington eyes top spot with 'The Equalizer'
Denzel Washington is gearing up to show his box office might once more as The Equalizer debuts in 3,234 theaters, including IMAX and other premium large format screens, starting with early Thursday-night showings. The R-rated Columbia Pictures action thriller, which re-teams Washington with his Training Day director Antoine Fuqua, will easily win the weekend, beating out last week's champ The Maze Runner and this week's other new opener, the family-friendly The Boxtrolls.

ABC News' Sarah Amos reports: Democratic presidential candidate Gov. Bill Richardson's fundraising slowed slightly in the third quarter. On Sunday, the campaign said they've raised about $5.2 million, bringing the Richardson's total fundraising for the year to over $18 million.
While his third quarter numbers are the campaign's lowest yet and position the New Mexico governor far behind Democratic rivals Sens. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, the campaign remains "confident."
"We continue to count contributions as they come in throughout the day, but this figure obviously separates us from the second-tier candidates and makes clear this is a four-person race," said Richardson spokesman Tom Reynolds in a released statement.
Reynolds couched the money announcement by describing the third quarter is traditionally slower for fundraising. Comparatively, Richardson raised roughly $6 million in the first quarter and $7 million in the second. The campaign has not released the number of donors or how much cash they currently have on hand.

Sprint Galaxy S3 and 64GB micro SD card: WHAT'S THE LATEST WORD?
Okay so I've been reading all over for some time now on this apparently controversial subject (controversial, in that everyone's mileage seems to vary.)
What's the latest word on a WORKING 64GB micro SD card solution for the SPRINT Galaxy S3? Format to FAT32 using EaseUS Partition Manager or leave as existing EXFAT? There seems to be conflicting reports all over on this, with many people seemingly indicating that if you use it as pre-formatted out of the box, that it may work for a short time, but will soon start having errors and problems. I'm aware of the 4GB max file size limitation of FAT32. Apparently there is an issue of not being able to install update .zips from recovery mode unless you are FAT32 formatted as well.
Finally, is there any particular card that has better compatibility?
My phone IS rooted, stock rom, Android 4.1.2

Re: Sprint Galaxy S3 and 64GB micro SD card: WHAT'S THE LATEST WORD?
I've been using my 64GB micro SD card for about a year. I don't recall doing anything special to format it and if I did, it would have been with the stock software. I've never had a problem at all and has been trouble-free since day one.

Re: Sprint Galaxy S3 and 64GB micro SD card: WHAT'S THE LATEST WORD?
I've seen lots of complaints about exFAT formatted cards causing data loss and corruption. It happened to me. I think FAT32 is still the recommended approach.PLEASE, when asking for help provide as much information as possible. We can't help unless we know what the symptoms are and what you did before they began.

Re: Sprint Galaxy S3 and 64GB micro SD card: WHAT'S THE LATEST WORD?
First my experience: I've had trouble with sandisks 16GB & 32GB lower class cards in both 16/32GB S3's. I've had a 64GB class 10 ultra in my 32GB Sprint S3 since the the beginning of the year, with no problems.
What I've read & understood: people were formatting these sandisks cards differently to fix the problem, which later found our to be a bad batch of cards from SanDisk. I thought as long as you've bought a newer card made this year, it was a fixed issue? I could be wrong, but that's what I've read.
Plus, my Dad & Bro both have S3's (my bro has my old 16GB) and they used older various cards, which gave them problems as well. Told them to wait till after the first of the year, bought a SanDisk on sale (various memory sizes and don't believe they're class 10). Haven't had a problem since either.
Hope this helps...

When Lynne Bruning walks into a room, you can't miss the former-architect-turned-fashion-designer. Her outrageous, over-the-top fashions just scream out for people to come and investigate. Start with her key skirt: Unadorned, it would just be a simple, denim mini. But with more than 500 keys sewn onto it -- not all, she swears, are to the homes of ex-boyfriends -- the skirt becomes a walking piece of art and music. The duster takes on new meaning in her hands: She weaves them with surveyor's marking line -- yes, the green and pink string you buy at Home Depot -- and El wire. Talk about a neon extravaganza. But Bruning is at her best when she turns to her simple, elegant, bias-cut dresses. The flowing gowns won her top prizes during last year's Fashion Group International of Denver competition and resulted in an internship with New York designer David Rodriguez. Way to sew!

A. Semi-synthetic oil means that the finished lubricant contains both conventional- and synthetic-based oils. The amount of synthetic component can vary from product to product with no set rule as to how much synthetic base oil is used.
As a general rule, semi-synthetic oils can improve oxidation stability, have longer service life and in some cases perform more favorably when biodiesel fuels are used. Fleet managers need to consult with their suppliers to determine if a semi-synthetic oil can offer additional advantages for their equipment and operating conditions.

I have been working at FedEx full-time (more than 10 years)Pros
Great pay once you put some time in. Benefit are very good. This is a job that no matter what level you are at you will likely have to hustle, but it's nice to know that everyone is working as hard as you are and very few people have time to play around. I like my job because it is very interesting and no day is like the other.Cons
Starting out as a package handler is very hard work most can do it in short term but very few have what it take to make a career of it. Moving up beyond a package handler with out a degree is very hard if not impossible in some facilities. I know some that have been with the company for over 6 years and still never made it past package handler with a degree. They only want a certain type of person in managament rolls so if you don't fit the mold your out of luck.Advice to ManagementAdvice
I notice managment seem to be very busy padding themselves on the back with reward and recongition for thing other do everyday. Stop padding your golf buddy on the back for finding package and maybe notice the others that find 5 to 10 lost packages a week.RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEO

Good Benefits and 401K match was decent. The brand is well known and a common name in the industry. There are many locations to seek employment.Cons
Health Insurance is not what it used to be, Insane amount of hours and no lunch allowed if you are in management and the pay is peanuts compared to the amount of work you do. FedEx has a habbit of understaffing to hit operational metrics but never shows it's employees the truth about if their operation is making or losing money. They are rude to customers, overcharge them for anything they can and damage alot of shipments. Additionally, their is poor top down communication and little to no cross communication from the different departments.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Follow the principles set in the 2006 Managers guide and look in the mirror to see if you have created an environment where people can succeed.Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookDisapproves of CEO

text: Lipids in Health and Disease - Latest Articles http://www.lipidworld.com The latest research articles published by Lipids in Health and Disease 2014-11-20T00:00:00Z LDL receptor knock-out mice show impaired spatial cognition with hippocampal vulnerability to apoptosis and deficits in synapses Background: Evidence from clinical studies support the fact that abnormal cholesterol metabolism in the brain leads to progressive cognitive dysfunction. The low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) is well-known for its role in regulating cholesterol metabolism. Whether LDLR involved in this impaired cognition and the potential mechanisms that underlie this impairment are unknown. Methods: Twelve-month-old Ldlr-/- mice (n = 10) and wild-type littermates C57BL/6 J (n = 14) were subjected to the Morris water maze test. At 1 week after completion of the behavioural testing, all of the animals were sacrificed for analysis of synaptic and apoptotic markers. Results: The plasma cholesterol concentration of Ldlr-/- mice was increased moderately when compared with C57BL/6 J mice (P < 0.05). Behavioural testing revealed that Ldlr-/- mice displayed impaired spatial memory, and moreover, the expression levels of synaptophysin and the number of synaptophysin-immunoreactive presynaptic boutons in the hippocampal CA1 and dentate gyrus were decreased (all P < 0.05). Ultrastructural changes in the dentate gyrus were observed using transmission electron microscopy. Furthermore, apoptosis in the hippocampus of Ldlr-/- mice was revealed based on elevation, at both the mRNA and protein levels, of the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 expression (all P < 0.05)and an increase in activated-caspase3 protein level (P < 0.05). Conclusion: LDLR deficiency contributes to impaired spatial cognition. This most likely occurs via negative effects that promote apoptosis and synaptic deficits in the hippocampus. http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/175 Shao-hua Wang Yan Huang Yang Yuan Wen-qing Xia Pin Wang Rong Huang Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, null:175 2014-11-20T00:00:00Z doi:10.1186/1476-511X-13-175 /content/figures/1476-511X-13-175-toc.gif Lipids in Health and Disease 1476-511X ${item.volume} 175 2014-11-20T00:00:00Z PDF Diversity of Apolipoprotein E genetic polymorphism significance on cardiovascular risk is determined by the presence of Metabolic Syndrome among hypertensive patients Background: Hypertension has a significant relevance as a cardiovascular risk factor. A consistent increase on world's Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) incidence has been associated with an epidemic cardiovascular risk in different populations. Dislipidemia plays a major role determining the epidemic CV burden attributed to MetS. Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is involved on cholesterol and triglycerides metabolism regulation. Once ApoE polymorphism may influence lipid metabolism, it is possible that it brings on individual susceptibility consequences for the development of MetS and cardiovascular risk. The objective of the study is to measure the discriminatory power of ApoE polymorphism in determining cardiovascular risk stratification based on the presence MetS in a cohort of hypertensive patients. Methods: It was enrolled 383 patients, divided in two groups, classified by MetS presence (IDF criteria): Group 1: 266 patients with MetS (MetS +) and Group 2: 117 patients without Mets (MetS -). Patient's data were collected by clinical evaluation, physical exam, file reviews and laboratory testing. Polymorphic ApoE analysis was performed by PCR amplification. Groups were compared on clinical and laboratory characteristics as well as allele and genotype distribution towards ApoE polymorphism. Mets CVD prevalence was analysed according to E4 allele prevalence. Results: The results evidenced 184 men (48%), 63,7% whites, 45,1% diabetics and 11,7% of patients were smokers. Mean age was 64,0 +/- 12,0 years. When genotypic distribution was analyzed, E3/3 genotype and E3 allele frequencies were more prevalent. Among patients with MetS, we observed an independent association between CVD prevalence and E4 allele frequency (OR 2.42 (1.17- 5.0, p < 0,05)). On the opposite direction, in those without MetS, there was lesser CVD burden in E4 allele carriers (OR 0,14 (0,02-0,75)). These associations remained significant even after confounding factor corrections. Conclusions: The results presented demonstrate that the association between ApoE gene and CVD may be modulated by the presence of MetS, with an increased CV burden observed among E4 allele carriers with the syndrome. On the opposite way, E4 allele carriers without visceral obesity had lesser prevalence of CVD. http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/174 Andrei Teixeira Mauro Marrocos Beata Quinto Maria Dalboni Cassio Rodrigues Silmara de Melo Carmona Mariana Kuniyoshi Marcelo Batista Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, null:174 2014-11-20T00:00:00Z doi:10.1186/1476-511X-13-174 /content/figures/1476-511X-13-174-toc.gif Lipids in Health and Disease 1476-511X ${item.volume} 174 2014-11-20T00:00:00Z PDF Inhibiting CB1 receptors improves lipogenesis in an in vitro non-alcoholic fatty liver disease model Background: The endocannabinoids system (ECs) mediated mainly by CB1 and CB2 receptors plays an important role in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease by regulating lipid metabolism. This study is to further investigate the expression of CB1 and CB2 in the fat accumulation liver cells and to identify possible underlying mechanism by detecting the key lipogenesis factors. Methods: Sodium oleate and sodium palmitate were added into the HepG2 cell line for forming fat accumulation liver cell. MTT assay was used to test the cell's cytotoxicity. The accumulation rate of fat in HepG2 cell was analyzed by the fluorescent staining. The mRNA and protein expression levels of CB1, CB2, SREBP-1c, ChREBP, L-PK, ACC1, FAS, LXRs and RXR were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot before and after the use of the antagonist. Results: The receptors of CB1 were expressed in HepG2 cells with low levels while in HepG2 fatty liver cells with higher levels (p < 0.05). However, after the application of antagonist, the expressions were significantly decreased (p < 0.05). The expressions of SREBP-1c, ChREBP and LXRs were detectable in HepG2 cells and the expressions were increased in HepG2 fatty liver cells (p < 0.05). After using the antagonists, the expressions of SREBP-1c, ChREBP, LXRs, ACC1 and FAS were significantly decreased (p < 0.05). But L-PK and RXR changed little in two groups((p > 0.05). Conclusion: Results of the present study demonstrated that CB1 receptors had important pathophysiological effects on the formation of fatty liver. CB1 receptors could be regulated by SREBP-1c, ChREBP and LXRs. Therefore, targeting CB1 receptors for the treatment of NAFLD might have a potential application value. http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/173 Dongmei Shi Xi zhan Xiaofeng Yu Minglei Jia Ying Zhang Jianfeng Yao Xiaona Hu Zhijun Bao Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, null:173 2014-11-18T00:00:00Z doi:10.1186/1476-511X-13-173 /content/figures/1476-511X-13-173-toc.gif Lipids in Health and Disease 1476-511X ${item.volume} 173 2014-11-18T00:00:00Z PDF Pharmacogenomic analysis of retinoic-acid induced dyslipidemia in congenic rat model Background: All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA, tretinoin) is a vitamin A derivative commonly used in the treatment of diverse conditions ranging from cancer to acne. In a fraction of predisposed individuals, the administration of ATRA is accompanied by variety of adverse metabolic effects, particularly by the induction of hyperlipidemia. We have previously derived a minimal congenic SHR.PD-(D8Rat42-D8Arb23)/Cub (SHR-Lx) strain sensitive to ATRA-induced increase of triacylglycerols and cholesterol under condition of high-sucrose diet. SHR-Lx differs only by 7 genes of polydactylous rat (PD/Cub) origin from its spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) progenitor strain. Methods: Adult male rats of SHR and SHR-Lx strains were fed standard diet (STD) and experimental groups were subsequently treated with ATRA (15 mg/kg) via oral gavage for 16 days, while still on STD. We contrasted the metabolic profiles (including free fatty acids, triacylglycerols (TG) and cholesterol (C) in 20 lipoprotein fractions) between SHR and SHR-Lx under conditions of standard diet and standard diet + ATRA. We performed transcriptomic analysis of muscle tissue (m. soleus) in all groups using Affymetrix GeneChip Rat Gene 2.0 ST Arrays followed by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis and real-time PCR validation. Results: In response to ATRA, SHR-Lx reacted with substantially greater rise in TG and C concentrations throughout the lipoprotein spectrum (two-way ANOVA strain * RA interaction significant for C content in chylomicrons (CM), VLDL and LDL as well as total, CM and HDL-TG). Conclusions: According to our modeling of metabolic and signalization pathways using differentially expressed genes we have identified a network with major nodes (including Sirt3, Il1b, Cpt1b and Pparg) likely to underlie the observed strain specific response to ATRA. http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/172 Michaela Krupková Franti¿ek Li¿ka Lucie ¿edová Drahomíra K¿enová Vladimír K¿en Ond¿ej ¿eda Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, null:172 2014-11-17T00:00:00Z doi:10.1186/1476-511X-13-172 /content/figures/1476-511X-13-172-toc.gif Lipids in Health and Disease 1476-511X ${item.volume} 172 2014-11-17T00:00:00Z PDF Low HDL cholesterol is correlated to the acute ischemic stroke with diabetes mellitus Background: To clarify the role of lipid composition in the occurrence of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) with diabetes mellitus (DM) and its influence factors. Methods: Data was collected from the patients hospitalization in Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from October 2008 to May 2012, which included AIS and non-AIS consist of transient ischemic attack (TIA) and Vertigo or dizzy. Lipid and other risk factors including blood glucose (BG), uric acid (UA), hypertension, DM and atrial fibrillation (AF) were investigated in relation to occurrence of AIS. Results: The level of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol was decreased obviously in the DM group compared to the non-DM group and low level of HDL cholesterol was prevalent in the AIS patients with DM. logistic regression demonstrated that decreased HDL cholesterol was correlated to the AIS with DM, not all AIS, and the relative risk of ischemic stroke in low HDL cholesterol level group was 2.113 (95% CI = 1.191-3.749, P = 0.011) compared to the high level group. Furthermore, age has the obviously impact on it. HDL cholesterol was correlated to the AIS with DM just in the populations of aged ≦70 years (OR = 0.192, P = 0.000), low level of HDL cholesterol had more high risk of ischemic stroke than that in the high level group (OR = 6.818, P = 0.002). Conclusion: Decreased HDL cholesterol was correlated to the occurrence of AIS with DM, especially in the populations of aged ≦70 years. http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/171 Yun Luo Jingwei Li Junfeng Zhang Yun Xu Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, null:171 2014-11-14T00:00:00Z doi:10.1186/1476-511X-13-171 /content/figures/1476-511X-13-171-toc.gif Lipids in Health and Disease 1476-511X ${item.volume} 171 2014-11-14T00:00:00Z XML Apolipoprotein C3 genetic polymorphisms are associated with lipids and coronary artery disease in a Chinese population Background: The disorder of triglyceride (TG) metabolism leading to hypertriglyceridemia is an independent risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). Variants in the apolipoprotein C3 (APOC3) gene were found to be associated with elevated TG levels. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of two polymorphisms (1100 C/T and 3238 C/G) of APOC3 on plasma lipid and risk of CAD in a Chinese population. Methods: The study population consisted of 600 patients with CAD and 600 age- and gender-matched controls. The APOC3 gene polymorphism was analyzed using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Results: Patients with CAD had a significantly higher frequency of APOC3 3238 GG genotype [odds ratio (OR) =1.64, 95% confidence interval (CI) =1.10, 2.43; P = 0.01] and APOC3 3238 G allele (OR =1.27, 95% CI =1.04, 1.55; P = 0.02) than controls. The findings are still emphatic by the Bonferroni correction. When stratifying by hyperlipidemia, CAD patients with hyperlipidemia had a significantly higher frequency of APOC3 3238 GG genotype (OR =1.73, 95% CI =1.13, 2.64; P = 0.01) than without hyperlipidemia. The APOC3 3238 G allele was significantly associated with increasing plasma TG levels and very-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C) levels both in cases and controls (P < 0.001). Conclusions: The APOC3 3238 G allele might contribute to an increased risk of CAD as a result of its effect on TG and VLDL-C metabolism. http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/170 FengHe Cui KeZhong Li YunFeng Li XueWu Zhang ChangShan An Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, null:170 2014-11-08T00:00:00Z doi:10.1186/1476-511X-13-170 /content/figures/1476-511X-13-170-toc.gif Lipids in Health and Disease 1476-511X ${item.volume} 170 2014-11-08T00:00:00Z XML Effect of germinated brown rice extracts on pancreatic lipase, adipogenesis and lipolysis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes Background: This study investigated anti-obesity effects of seven different solvent (n-hexane, toluene, dicholoromethane, ethyl acetate, absolute methanol, 80% methanol and deionized water) extracts of germinated brown rice (GBR) on pancreatic lipase activity, adipogenesis and lipolysis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Methods: GBR were extracted separately by employing different solvents with ultrasound-assisted. Pancreatic lipase activity was determined spectrophotometrically by measuring the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl butyrate (p-NPB) to p-nitrophenol at 405 nm. Adipogenesis and lipolysis were assayed in fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes by using Oil Red O staining and glycerol release measurement. Results: GBR extract using hexane showed the highest inhibitory effect (13.58 ± 0.860%) at concentration of 200 μg/ml followed by hexane extract at 100 μg/ml (9.98 ± 1.048%) while ethyl acetate extract showed the lowest (2.62 ± 0.677%) at concentration of 200 μg/ml on pancreatic lipase activity. Water extract at 300 μg/ml showed 61.55 ± 3.824% of Oil Red O staining material (OROSM), a marker of adipogenesis. It significantly decrease (p < 0.05) lipid accumulation than control (OROSM = 100%), follow by ethyl acetate extract at 300 μg/ml (OROSM = 65.17 ± 3.131%). All the GBR extracts induced lipolysis with 1.22-1.83 fold of greater glycerol release than control. Conclusions: GBR extracts especially the least polar and intermediate polar solvent extracts exhibited inhibitory effect on pancreatic lipase, decrease fat accumulation by adipocyte differentiation inhibition, and stimulate lipolysis on adipocytes. Therefore, GBR could be furthered study and developed as a functional food in helping the treatment and/or prevention of obesity. http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/169 See Meng Lim Yong Meng Goh Wen Bin Kuan Su Peng Loh Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, null:169 2014-11-03T00:00:00Z doi:10.1186/1476-511X-13-169 /content/figures/1476-511X-13-169-toc.gif Lipids in Health and Disease 1476-511X ${item.volume} 169 2014-11-03T00:00:00Z XML Synergistic effects of atorvastatin and rosiglitazone on endothelium protection in rats with dyslipidemia Background: Endothelial dysfunction is implicated in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Whether atorvastatin combined with rosiglitazone has synergistic effects on endothelial function improvement in the setting of dyslipidemia is unknown. Methods: Dyslipidemia rat model was produced with high-fat and high-cholesterol diet administration. Thereafter, atorvastatin, rosiglitazone or atorvastatin combined with rosiglitazone were prescribed for 2 weeks. At baseline, 6 weeks of dyslipidemia model production, and 2 weeks of medical intervention, fasting blood was drawn for parameters of interest evaluation. At the end, myocardium was used for 15-deoxy-delta-12,14-PGJ2 (15-d-PGJ2) assessment. Results: Initially, there was no significant difference of parameters between sham and dyslipidemia groups. With 6 weeks' high-fat and high-cholesterol diet administration, as compared to sham group, serum levels of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) were significantly increased. Additionally, nitric oxide (NO) production was reduced and serum levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), C-reactive protein (CRP) and asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) were profoundly elevated in dyslipidemia group. After 2 weeks' medical intervention, lipid profile was slightly improved in atorvastatin and combined groups as compared to control group. Nevertheless, in comparison to control group, NO production was profoundly increased and serum levels of MDA, CRP and ADMA were significantly decreased with atorvastatin or rosiglitazone therapy. 15-d-PGJ2 expression of myocardium was also significantly elevated with atorvastatin or rosiglitazone treatment. Notably, these effects were further enhanced with combined therapy, suggesting that atorvastatin and rosiglitazone had synergistic effects on endothelial protection, and inflammation and oxidation amelioration. Conclusion: Atorvastatin and rosiglitazone therapy had synergistic effects on endothelium protection as well as amelioration of oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction in rats with dyslipidemia. http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/168 Wei-Li Zhang Wen-Ju Yan Bei Sun Zhi-Peng Zou Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, null:168 2014-10-31T00:00:00Z doi:10.1186/1476-511X-13-168 /content/figures/1476-511X-13-168-toc.gif Lipids in Health and Disease 1476-511X ${item.volume} 168 2014-10-31T00:00:00Z XML A mutation in Ampd2 is associated with nephrotic syndrome and hypercholesterolemia in mice Background: Previously, we identified three loci affecting HDL-cholesterol levels in a screen for ENU-induced mutations in mice and discovered two mutated genes. We sought to identify the third mutated gene and further characterize the mouse phenotype. Methods: We engaged, DNA sequencing, gene expression profiling, western blotting, lipoprotein characterization, metabolomics assessment, histology and electron microscopy in mouse tissues. Results: We identify the third gene as Ampd2, a liver isoform of AMP Deaminase (Ampd), a central component of energy and purine metabolism pathways. The causative mutation was a guanine-to-thymine transversion resulting in an A341S conversion in Ampd2. Ampd2 homozygous mutant mice exhibit a labile hypercholesterolemia phenotype, peaking around 9 weeks of age (251 mg/dL vs. wildtype control at 138 mg/dL), and was evidenced by marked increases in HDL, VLDL and LDL. In an attempt to determine the molecular connection between Ampd2 dysfunction and hypercholesterolemia, we analyzed hepatic gene expression and found the downregulation of Ldlr, Hmgcs and Insig1 and upregulation of Cyp7A1 genes. Metabolomic analysis confirmed an increase in hepatic AMP levels and a decrease in allantoin levels consistent with Ampd2 deficiency, and increases in campesterol and β-sitosterol. Additionally, nephrotic syndrome was observed in the mutant mice, through proteinuria, kidney histology and effacement and blebbing of podocyte foot processes by electron microscopy. Conclusion: In summary we describe the discovery of a novel genetic mouse model of combined transient nephrotic syndrome and hypercholesterolemia, resembling the human disorder. http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/167 Joan Helmering Todd Juan Chi Ming Li Mark Chhoa Will Baron Tibor Gyuris William Richards James Turk Jeff Lawrence Patrick Cosgrove Jim Busby Ki Won Kim Stephen Kaufman Connie Cummings George Carlson Murielle Véniant David Lloyd Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, null:167 2014-10-31T00:00:00Z doi:10.1186/1476-511X-13-167 /content/figures/1476-511X-13-167-toc.gif Lipids in Health and Disease 1476-511X ${item.volume} 167 2014-10-31T00:00:00Z XML Optimized rapeseed oils rich in endogenous micronutrients ameliorate risk factors of atherosclerosis in high fat diet fed rats Background: Micronutrients in rapeseed such as polyphenols, tocopherols, phytosterols and phospholipids in rapeseed exert potential benefit to atherosclerosis. Some part of these healthy components substantially lost during the conventional refining processing. Thus some new processing technologies have been developed to produce various endogenous micronutrient-enriched optimized rapeseed oils. The aim of this study is to assess whether optimized rapeseed oils have positive effects on the atherosclerosis risk factors in rats fed a high-fat diet. Methods: Rats received experiment diets containing 20% fat and refined rapeseed oil or optimized rapeseed oils obtained with various processing technologies as lipid source. After 10 weeks of treatment, plasma was assayed for oxidative stress, lipid profiles and imflammation. Results: Micronutrients enhancement in optimized rapeseed oils significantly reduced plasma oxidative stress, as evaluated by the significant elevation in the activities of CAT and GPx as well as the level of GSH, and the significant decline in lipid peroxidation. Optimized rapeseed oil with the highest micronutrient contents obtained by microwave pretreatment-cold pressing reduced the levels of TG, TC and LDL-C as well as IL-6 and CRP in plasma. Conclusions: These results suggest that optimized rapeseed oils may contribute to prevent atherogenesis and make them very promising functional food in cardiovascular health promotion. http://www.lipidworld.com/content/13/1/166 Jiqu Xu Congcong Ma Ling Han Hui Gao Qi Zhou Mei Yang Chang Chen Qianchun Deng Qingde Huang Fenghong Huang Lipids in Health and Disease 2014, null:166 2014-10-30T00:00:00Z doi:10.1186/1476-511X-13-166 /content/figures/1476-511X-13-166-toc.gif Lipids in Health and Disease 1476-511X ${item.volume} 166 2014-10-30T00:00:00Z XML

London - Wayne Rooney is one of five England players who have withdrawn from the squad for Wednesday's friendly against Sweden, putting youngster Wilfried Zaha in contention to make his debut.
Rooney's right ankle was injured in Manchester United's match at Aston Villa on Saturday when Theo Walcott hurt a buttock muscle playing for Arsenal.
Kyle Walker and Aaron Lennon were hurt Sunday in Tottenham's match at Manchester City as was Jermain Defoe, whom England coach Roy Hodgson had wanted to call up as Rooney's replacement.
The fifth player forced out is Liverpool midfielder Jonjo Shelvey after he missed Sunday's match at Chelsea.
Coming into the squad are Tottenham midfielder Tom Huddlestone, who made the last of his three appearances in 2010, and 20-year-old newcomers Zaha and Carl Jenkinson.
Zaha is a highly rated forward with second-tier club Crystal Palace who has only made five appearances for England's under-21 team.
Jenkinson, an Arsenal defender, will be receiving FIFA clearance to play after previously featuring for Finland's under-19 team.
"It is expected that the paperwork will be completed and sent through to The FA on Monday, meaning Jenkinson will be available for the match with Sweden," the Football Association said.

Butternut Squash with a Maple Bourbon GlazeNovember 25, 2013 | by Diana
It's just the two of us now, and some nights it's difficult to want to cook. All summer I could call my kids and tell them to start dinner. Now they're both gone, we are tired , the pets need to be fed, and we don't want to think about preparing a meal. I think sometimes it's more difficult to cook for two; it's easier to think about just skipping it and going for the ice cream. On the night my husband wasn't home, I made myself an egg sandwich, but the next night I was determined to provide us with something delicious and nutritious and I wasn't popping it into the microwave, Butternut Squash with a Maple Bourbon Glaze. I had butternut squash and I was going to use it, even if it was too big for two people, yay, we had leftovers too. I think maple and bourbon are very friendly flavors, and on the butternut with a little melted butter they were perfect.
- Butternut squash
- 2 tbs wild turkey bourbon
- 1 tbs maple syrup
- 1 tbs melted butter
Slice the butternut squash in half and scoop out the seeds. Whisk together the butter, the bourbon and the maple syrup. Brush the cut halves with the glaze and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake in oven (we actually used the toaster oven) on 400 until you can poke it with a fork and it gives nicely, brushing every so often with the glaze.
Butternut Squash under a Swiss Cheese CrustNovember 25, 2013 | by Diana
I still have butternut squash in my basement, but as the basement warms up, the squash will be in peril. I'm glad they lasted as long as they did, since this is the first year we tried basement storage. Last year we kept the winter squash upstairs, and they didn't last as long. I'm going to make Butternut Squash Under a Swiss Cheese Crust for our family Easter gathering. I made it for dinner one night and my husband was really impressed, so impressed he wants me to make it again. I used curry in the dish to keep it from being too sweet, but also added nutmeg and cinnamon because I love the taste with butternut squash and I also added nutmeg to the cheese sauce. The swiss cheese was hand delivered from Wisconsin. A friend of my husband's brought us back cheese from a recent trip. Isn't it cool to have a friend like that? My favorite prep method for butternut squash is to slice it down the middle, scooping the seeds and pulp out, but leaving the meat behind. Then it is brushed with olive oil, and placed cut side down in a glass pan. It goes into the oven at about 350 and bakes until a knife slides in easily. Ingredients:
- 1 butternut squashed prepped(see above)
- 1/2 cup half & half
- 1 tsp curry
- 1 tsp nutmeg -grated
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tbs butter
- 2 tbs flour
- 1 cup half & half
- 1 cup swiss cheese shredded
- 1 tsp nutmeg – grated
Bake butternut squash until soft. Cool and then scoop butternut squash out of the shell into a bowl. Use a mixer to combine the squash milk, nutmeg, cinnamon and curry. Place in a buttered casserole dish. In a small saucepan melt butter and whisk in flour. Slowly whisk in cold milk until smooth. Take off heat and whisk in the cheese. Spread cheese sauce over top of the squash (add more cheese if you need a thicker consistency). Bake in oven at 350 until cheese starts to brown and crusty.
Turkey RoastingNovember 15, 2013 | by Diana
Turkey is one of the easiest things to cook, the main problem is taking it out on time so that it stays moist and tender. To that end, pay attention to roasting times and pop up thermometers. Get a meat thermometer and make sure you check the temp with that after the pop up – pops to be sure. Follow these suggestions for a wonderful tasting roasted turkey for your Thanksgiving (or even not Thanksgiving) bird.
- Defrost your turkey. You'll need to keep it in the fridge for a few days in order for it to defrost. It takes longer with the giblet packet inside, so as soon as you can, take it out. If you didn't leave enough time to defrost it totally, you will need to submerge your sealed Turkey in a big pot or sink full of cold water. Change the water every 1/2 hour. Whatever you do, put your arm all the way through from one end of the turkey to the other and make sure you get every single one of those giblet parts out.
- Turkey Brining – I talked about it here . Martha Stewart has a brining recipe if you want to make it yourself. Rinse turkey well and pat dry.
- Stuff the turkey – I like to cook my stuffing in a baking dish in the oven. If you like it in your turkey, then by all means stuff it. Add some cooking time in for the stuffing.
- Season the turkey – If you don't have stuffing inside, throw in some garlic and herbs. Rub butter or olive oil over the skin of the turkey and throw some of your favorite herbs on top. Salt, pepper, sage, thyme. I throw onions and a little garlic in the side of the pan too.
- Cooking – My mom roasted the turkey in a Roasting Pan with an aluminum foil tent. My husband's mom used a roasting bag and then in a pan. I use an electric Roasting Pan. My husband under the familiar protest that you don't get your wife cooking gear for Christmas bought me one because I asked. I love it because I can keep the oven free for other things. I have tried with success cooking the turkey upside down for some of the time to let the juices travel better to the breast. Put the turkey in and leave it. Every time you open the oven it makes the oven heat up all over again.
- Timetable – From the Good Housekeeping Cookbook that I got as a wedding gift over 21 years ago.
Suggested temp 325 degrees.
8 – 12 lbs 3 1/2 – 4 hours
12 – 16lbs 4 – 4 1/2 hours
16 – 20 lbs 4 1/2 – 5 hours
20 – 24 lbs 5 – 6 hours
Subtract a half hour if it is unstuffed.
- Remove foil or bag for the last half hour of cooking to let the turkey brown.
- Let the turkey rest for a half hour before serving so that the juices settle.
- Make giblet gravy or any other gravy that you prefer.
- Carve and eat.
Another method of cooking a turkey is deep frying. However, any type cooking directions that includes keeping a fire extinguisher nearby makes me shake my head. I've heard it's really good that way though and very moist.
For Big Green Egg lovers, here are directions to cooking a turkey on the BGE.
Of course, if you wait too long and you're too tired, or you have to work, or you just don't want to spend all day cooking or working on a turkey.. there's always the supermarket pre-ordered, pre-cooked ready for pick up.
This is an updated repost from 2008.
Trapping Fruit Flies with Vinegar (or Fruit Fly Vinegar Jar)October 4, 2013 | by Diana
Fruit fly season is the worst time of the year. If you have a piece of fruit or vegetable sitting out, those darned flies will find it and you know you don't want to refrigerate your tomatoes, because they will taste nasty. So, how do you trap the fruit flies and keep them away from your produce? With a fruit fly trap – or a fruit fly vinegar jar.
My daughter saw an idea for a fruit fly trap that used a jar, a paper cone, apple cider vinegar and dish soap. So, I've been trying different variations to see what made a difference and worked, and what didn't.
- Vinegar alone works just fine. Don't waste your precious dishsoap, plain vinegar – in fact any kind of vinegar works. We used apple cider the most but plain white worked too.
- A wide mouth with a cone works well. The cone gives a wide opening for the fruit fly to find it's way in, but the narrow opening prevents them from leaving. When I used a small mouthed bottle, the flies never found their way into the bottle. Large bowls are very inviting, but you need to find a way to keep them from escaping.
- Fruit is the enemy when it comes to trapping the fruit flies. If there are any other attractants in the vicinity, the competition will keep the flies away. So, clean up any fruit making sure to remove any that have a slight crack or peel. That will actually solve most of your problem, but you may still have some flies, without fruit around they will find your vinegar jar.

Daniel Albrecht counts himself lucky
GRENOBLE, France -- Daniel Albrecht counts himself among the lucky. The Swiss Alpine racer left spectators gasping in horror when he lost control during a training run in January 2009, landing on his back and sliding down the icy slope.
Then came three weeks in a medically induced coma and months of struggling for a simple word or phrase. Ultimately, while still in his 20s, the former world champion had to give up competing in the sport that he loved. But, viewing Michael Schumacher's critical ...

ALBUQUERQUE -- Bernalillo County sheriff's deputies are looking for a white truck and its driver who allegedly ran over a man after a spat of road rage Tuesday afternoon.
BCSO says the driver in the white truck got into an argument with another man, driving a black Ford truck, on Coors Boulevard near Arenal. Both drivers pulled into the parking lot of a Blake's Lotaburger, where the two men got into a verbal argument.
The man in the white truck then rammed the black truck as it was turning around to leave. The driver of the black truck got out of his vehicle to confront the man driving the white truck, and the driver began to drive off as the man was still holding on to his window frame.
The man eventually lost his grip and was allegedly run over by the white truck, according to BCSO.
Deputies say they are looking for two men who were in the white truck, described as Hispanic males between 5'5" and 5'8" and 120 to 140 pounds. The white truck in question is a late-model Chevrolet or GMC 1500 single cab with custom wheels. BCSO says the truck should have left front-end damage after ramming into the other truck.

One of the things I love is when people give me old clothes because they know that I'll find something to make out of it. My mum's friend does so every once in a while, and fortunately her dimensions differ just in the right ways of mine, so that her skirt could be turned into a blouse for me.
Oh, isn't it lovely when things just work fine?
very light cotton
