There's a little vanity in all of us. That second glance. A gaze, held by your partner - or even an attractive stranger - who speaks with their eyes and says what you're just dying to hear:
HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia was designed for moments like that. And you can expect many, many of them with HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia because it's designed to work with your body and reduce excess food cravings to help you:
The results are cumulative. Most clients find that HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia helps them lose two to four pounds in the first month... They look the part too, with a slim face, a lean physique, and the confidence that comes with having an eye-pleasing body.
But it's the compliments – oh those compliments! - that keep people coming back to HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia: a natural supplement that helps clients bust fat without dangerous extreme diets and allow the toned, sexy, attractive YOU to say hello!
Deep in the jungles of Indonesia, a plant that looks like a small green pumpkin is about to help you bust fat and curb your appetite for large meals.
You'll be less likely to head to the fridge on a stressful day too.
See, HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia is naturally high in hydroxycitric acid, or HCA. Used for centuries in Southeast Asia to make meals more satiating, it does two things especially well:
Block Fat – The HCA in HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia inhibits an enzyme called citrate lyase that makes fat from carbohydrates.
Suppress Appetite – HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia naturally increases serotonin – the 'feel good' neurotransmitter in the brain that improves mood and the desire to over-indulge in food on a bad day.
But HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia doesn't feel like a diet because it's not a diet. It's a natural supplement that makes it easier to feel full by eating less. There's no beating yourself up for that large meal or second helping because you won't need it.
You feel full with less food and without stress. And that helps you get the sexy slim body to make others envious!
You'll look great in pictures and even better in a swimsuit. HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia clients buy it because it helps them look their best...
And with compliments that quickly get addicting!
See, the pounds that many people want to lose often show up in the face. With less of them, and the leaner physique that HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia helps clients achieve, many people find their cheekbones are more visible.
Smile for the camera too, because you'll see a difference in pictures!
Yet it's those clothing-optional warm summer days that HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia clients tend to enjoy the most because they simply look awesome!
All WITHOUT the torment of I should be dieting because HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia makes weight loss seem like second nature. It blocks fat and increases serotonin production, so you feel good and don't automatically head to the fridge.
Let's talk about binge eating for a minute, and how HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia can help you avoid binge eating, late night snacks, and other saboteurs of a healthy body mass index (BMI).
You're more likely to over-eat and indulge in carbohydrates and related 'comfort foods' when you feel down. Much of that stems from low levels of serotonin, AKA the 'feel good' neurotransmitter in the brain.
Serotonin is a natural appetite suppressant. That tub of ice cream, those french fries with gravy...they seem so right when your serotonin is low, like in many people with depression and sleeping disorders. People with low serotonin tend to overeat. For example, a 2011 study conducted at Columbia University found that sleepy people consumed an average 300 more calories each day, especially from calorie-heavy saturated fats!
That may seem fine at the time, but it quickly adds up. On the face, waist, pictures, and your self confidence when you head to the beach! But you'll find that you're binge eating much, much less with HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia because it increases serotonin naturally. You are less likely to crave those diet busters on stressful days because you'll feel better.
Heck, you might even sleep better as a bonus!
HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia makes it easier to lose weight because it helps you feel satiated and reduces conversion of fat from carbohydrates.
You'll eat less, naturally, without diet pills, and minus the guilt that you shouldn't be eating.
But don't forget that healthy weight management also means regular exercise and heeding the following tips:
The benefit of HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia is that it stabilizes your appetite and reduces fat from carbohydrates. These steps are MUCH EASIER to adopt and maintain...
And help you look – and feel – simply awesome!
We guarantee you will love HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia and the lean physique it will help you achieve. We'll prove it, with a 60 day no-risk money-back guarantee during which you can try HCAFit and return it for a full refund minus shipping and handling if you're not satisfied.
Simple. Because it works - HCAFit makes it easy to lose weight and achieve a lean figure.
Lives change. People FEEL better and they look amazing with HCAFit Garcinia Cambogia. Hold us to it – you'll love HCAFit, or your money back!

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
Mahmoud "I Wanna Jihad" Ahmadinejad (born 28 October 1956) was the 6th president of The Islamic Republic of Iran. He was famed for his passionate yet balanced speeches of the existence of the Holocaust, the cases for and against the State of Israel and his fluency in English and French languages. It is because of this charisma that he is famous for a highly successful post-retirement career on the after dinner speaking circuit. He's been awarded a Noble Prize in peace for advocating stoning of adulterers, amputation of limbs, beheading converts and atheists in order to please Allah.
He has courted controversy in recent times and is a continuing source of tension between the West and Iran. It is believed this tension can all be traced back to confusion surrounding how to pronounce his name.

Early Life
Ahmadinejad was born in the small city of Garmsar, near Tehran, on October 28, 1956. At the age of 20 he took Iran's national university entrance exams to get into university. His test score ranked him 132,000th among over 400,000 participants that year, which, as well as gaining him entrance into university as an undergraduate of civil engineering, enabled him to add "genius" after "evil" on his CV.
After the revolution, he entered the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for the civil unrest program in 1984. In 1997, he received his PhD in urban planning, where he learned how pathetic humanity really is. Without a doubt the most sinister PhD around. He also enjoys dancing and looking into the eyes of mortals.
Political Career
Early Political Activity
As a student during the Iranian Revolution, Ahmadinejad became very politicised, this is mainly due to the fierce political and social issues introduced through the study of bridge construction and irrigation in his civil engineering undergraduacy.
He was heavily involved in the gay pride revolution and was a founding member of the student union that took over the US embassy in Tehran in 1979. He denies being one of the hostage-takers, despite some incriminating images and several hostage's testimonies that point to the opposite. Experts on the matter concur that "he does look a bit shifty, doesn't he?".
After a 4 year term as baseball commissioner and Provincial Governor, Ahmadinejad was appointed Mayor of Los Angeles by the City Council of Fraggle Rock, who themselves were elected on a highly democratic 12% turnout.
During his term as Overlord, Ahmadinejad followed a theocratic style of Mayorship, with the reforms of previous mayors being changed to emphasize religious activities more. These changes included the separation of elevators for men and women in the buildings of Tehran. Thus preventing Iran's one true fear being realized: the elevators of Tehran descending into vertically moving steel boxes of lust, sin and orgy. Y'know, like those evil Western ones you're always hearing about.
He apparently also did some other stuff like distributing free soup to the poor, but that isn't nearly evil enough to be mentioned, and as far as sources show the soup was entirely poison free. Must have been an off day when he signed that particular bill.
Ahmadinejad appeared on Dancing With the Stars promoting mainly populist policies, with his website going so far as to describe himself as "A Friend of the People". It is believed that this is connected to the ancient Persian maxim: "keep your friends close and your enemies closer (for the benefit of your secret police force)".
His promises worked and Ahmadenijad was elected as Grand Poobah with 62% of the vote. Ahmadenijad did not win without controversy though. The loser of the ballot alleged that a network of mosques and the Islamic Revolutionary Guards had been illegally helping Ahmadinejad. The ex-Revolutionary Guard, religious Conservative and friend of many an Ayatollah denied all. The loser was later found beheaded wearing a diaper.
Ahmadinejad's presidency has been illuminated by controversy and this hasn't escaped him domestically.
His most controversial domestic decision was that to allow females into stadia to watch men play sports. This provoked en masse late night beard-stroking-and-angry-muttering sessions amongst the Islamic cleric of Iran. Ignoring fears that the stadiums of Iran would erupt into huge, pulsing, swelling rings of sin (y'know, like those evil Western ones you're always hearing about), Ahmadinejad pressed ahead with his plans. Unfortunately for Ahmadinejad, his immoral plans for sexual equality in stadia were dashed by Iran's Supreme Leader Ali "Cuddles" Khamenei, who reversed the decision.
International Controversy
Ahmadinejad has courted the most controversy on the international scene. His bubbly personality and happy-go-lucky nature have often earned him a "tap on the wrist" and an angry letter from the UN.
Israel Comments
One of his most famous opinions relates to the cases
for and against The State of Israel. His comments describing Israel as an "occupying regime" that had to be removed, referring to it as a "disgraceful stain [on] the Islamic world" that must be "wiped off the map". These comments sparked mass outrage amongst the cast of Sesame Street and the nations of the world and caused many UN officials to wake up for the first time since the Iraq War and open up the 'Angry Letter Template' on Word.
To counter this Ahmadinejad claims that his comments were actually mistranslated. He states that he merely said Israel should be "eliminated" or "wiped off" or "wiped away" from "the page of time" or "the pages of history", which sounds much better.
Surprisingly the flag of Iran was not visibly burned in any Western nation nor were effigies of Ahmadinejad burned outside Iranian embassies. The Iranian flag and effigy making industries mourned.
Views on the Holocaust
Ahmadinejad has frequently described the Holocaust as a myth, even going as far as requesting and hosting the desperately attention seeking "International Conference to Review the Global Vision of the Holocaust": a deadly serious gathering of Nazis neo and old, Ku Klux Klan members, American Bible Belt Governors, old people from the 30's that were "brought up that way" and Prince Harry.
Again Ahmadinejad's actions provoked controversy but Iran maintained that it was not a "Holocaust denial conference" throughout, rather "a conference to deny the Holocaust".
The Nuclear Question
"How long do you think I can I fob off the international community that my nuclear program is peaceful?"
Ahmadinejad has infuriated the
international community West recently with his policies on Iran's nuclear program. Iran's pursuit of Nuclear power particularly annoyed President George W. Bush, who repeatedly asked for UN sanctions on pizza delivery to be placed on the country. Bush believed that Ahmadinejad and Iran should have to listen to the UN and be forced to stop their actions, just like Bush was with the Iraq War... err... and if the UN demands are not met, then Ahmadinejad and his regime should be punished, just like Bush was after the Iraq War... err...
Despite the West's demands Ahmadinejad has plowed ahead with urine enrichment; ordering parrots placed by the UN at some of its research plants to be removed and continuing the Russian-aided development of Iran's first atomic power station. In 2006 he went as far as to claim that Iran had succeeded in enriching chocolate. It was at this point that Ahmadinejad found he could no longer open his front door due the humongous amount of angry UN letters on the other side.
The Iranian president still maintains that Iran is not developing a nuclear bomb and that all nuclear activity is producing energy for the country which sits upon the worlds 2nd largest flatulence reserve.
As an extra note, Ahmadinejad has stated that a nation that has "culture, logic and civilization" would not need nuclear weapons. How "culture, logic and civilization" aims to blow the Israeli bunker-buster delivering jets out of the sky when the Israelis launch Operation Richard Simmons is yet to be seen.
Accusations of Arming the Iraqi Insurgency
In recent times Iran has been accused of funding and arming part of the insurgency in Iraq by the US. Iranian RPGs, AK47s and specialized throwing rocks, as well as the odd Iranian armored column, have been found in the eastern, Shia section of Iraq. CIA sources describe the evidence as "inconclusive".
As well as the armaments found, funding from Iranians has also been detected. A recent raid in Basra uncovered a top-secret wheelbarrow trail, in which money from Iranian benefactors was being smuggled into Iraq by wheelbarrow on a trail made of 2 x 4 planks of wood. Like the Ho Chi Minh trail, except more D.I.Y.
Ahmadinejad is also directly connected with the arming and funding of the insurgency, with the leader appearing on al-Jazeera Jihadding people's rides, whether these rides are used in the 'hoods of Iraq is uncertain.
Iranian officials have stated that the idea that Shia Iran would be supporting the eastern Shia half of Iraq against coalition troops in an attempt to divide Iraq, as "preposterous".
The British Sailor Incident
Lately Ahmadinejad has attracted more controversy than a spandex Burka. This stems from his recent attempt to advertise tourism in Iran by giving several British sailors a
forced tour of the cell blocks countryside of Iran.
The British sailors (janners) were seen on Iranian television eating the traditional Iranian dish of fish and chips and being interviewed in
interrogation room like diary room type locations. The British television network Channel 4 reacted by threatening to sue Ahmadinejad for stealing their Big Brother concept. Despite this Channel 4 producers are currently signing the sailors up for next year's Celebrity Big Brother. Whether they choose to include the black headbags, electrical cables and mock-executions in their version is yet to be seen, bookies are currently hedging their bets.
Post-political life
Using his fierce love of providing ample social commentary on the Holocaust and Israel, following his loss of the presidency in 2013 he authored two wildly successful books on the issues. Although controversial, they can be found in the junior fiction of most book stores. Ahmadinejad is quoted to have said: "The nessecity for children to learn from a young age the difference between facts like Allah, Iran's nuclear program and the evils of the west, as opposed to what is fake such as Santa Claus, the Holocaust and Israeli legitimacy, is far too important to ignore."
The Many Moods of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
Mahmoud is known for his ever-changing personalities, each one lovable in their own special way. Here are some of his more well-known public persona's:

Redesign CSS NotesJune 03, 2004
Alluded to in the earlier Technical Summary, the next analysis takes a look at the important CSS highlights of Proton.
As with the menus in Radar, these were inspired by Eric Meyer's Pure CSS Menus demo. Using nothing but strategic placement of
Well, no script was the goal, but Windows IE doesn't do much when you apply
:hover to elements that aren't links. As noted in the technical notes of this redesign, I launched with Peter Nederlof's whatever:hover but had to back out due to slowness. I'm hoping to find a way around this when I have a free moment, something that will be a familiar refrain around here for a while as I knock down the various bugs in whatever free time I can find.
The markup behind these menus is relatively simple, although I may back out of an earlier decision to provide the text summaries for third-level menu items in the HTML, simply due to the fact that I'm not yet convinced it's worth the overhead to provide what amounts to gratuitous text. The unstyled markup is quite a bit bulkier as well, which means more bytes to download and a lot further to scroll before getting to the content. (see it yourself, although you'll have to shake off the cookie if you click that link by following it up with this one. You've been warned.)
The contact form embedded within the contact menu item was a proof-of-concept, mainly to see what the response would be. It's flaky, and I got the first spam from it within hours of launch, so it won't stay.
Content Scaling
Some of the 'looseness' comments that have been directed at Proton are no doubt a result of the liquid layout. Resizing the window leaves the center text column at a fixed width, while allowing the white margins on either side to fill the extra space. Except in IE, where the margins stay fixed and it's the content that scales; a reasonable way to work around the lack of
max-width support.
If you scale the text in your browser, the width of the centered text column changes accordingly, filling up the white space. Assuming those with larger windows also run larger resolutions (a logical assumption), and guessing that their fonts are generally smaller anyway, this kills two birds with one stone… for those who resize.
The CSS behind it is a simple matter of using an
em unit on the
max-width value, like so:
.contentarea {
max-width: 45em;
padding: 0 25px;
Again, no IE support, so padding was also applied to the edges of .contentarea for the sake of margins in browsers that don't support
Accessibility Menu
One of the first pieces of markup to occur after the
 tag is an accessibility menu, which doesn't display on-screen in either Proton or Radar:

Skip to Content

Skip to Navigation

Skip to Style Switcher

Skip to Sidebar

What is it for? With this markup, those without style enabled, and those using alternate access devices have a way to skip to various important parts of the site. (Skipping "to" content makes more sense to me as a user than skipping "over" content, since I care about that which I want, not that which I don't want.) We all know by now that
display: none doesn't function as expected in screenreaders, so using it to hide this menu adversely affects some of those who need it most. What to do?
A suite of test cases was run against many common screenreaders last year to solve this dilemma, and one CSS technique was a clear winner. This is what I use:
#skipNav {
position: absolute;
left: -9999px;
font-size: small;
By moving the menu off-screen to the left by almost 10,000 pixels (why not save the byte? I did, hence 9999) we can almost guarantee that it won't display on any browser but those that need it. Note that if the links are underlined, Firefox runs the underline all the way back to the content area. Also, if for some reason you're not confident that 10,000 pixels will be enough, you can clip the viewing area of the off-screen menu. The following code virtually guarantees nothing will show up, although the above snippet will usually be sufficient:
#skipNav {
position: absolute;
left: -9999px;
width: 9000px;
font-size: 1px;
letter-spacing: -1px;
The fun doesn't stop there. If your browser allows it, try hitting tab to cycle through the page's links and form elements. By hooking into the
:focus link state and absolutely positioning the individual links back into the content area, they show up on-screen as styled blocks.
While this method doesn't quite solve the dilemma of visible skip links, the only reason I can see why that is true is browser support. Those with mobility problems who use keyboard navigation can access them, those who are unsighted and using a screenreader can access them, and those browsing with a PDA or cell phone without style enabled can access them. If only
:focus were more widely supported…
And with that, we're through today's analysis. Those were the more interesting CSS tidits from this redesign. I'll leave discussing the more mundane layout and styling issues for another day. Next up in this series: design notes.
Reader Comments
that tab trick is wicked awesome! I just had to say it!
I was unsure of your new design at first, but it's really growing on me. The dropdown menus are rad, but I just noticed one little quirk with them. After mousing over "contact" there is a small gap that you have to "jump" over to get to the form. If you move the cursor down really slowly, the form disappears .
Instead of fudging the positioning on the skipnav link(s) with an arbitrarily large value, why not make sure its out of the viewport like this?
position: absolute;
right: 100%;
bottom: 100%;
As long as the element's positioning context was the ICB (or was at least in the upper left corner), as is typically the case with skipnav links, that would push it out the top, left corner. The values could also be altered to suit other specific cases where it wasn't.
Just seems a little cleaner…
Not heard of IE7 yet?
"Not heard of IE7 yet?"
Yes I have, and it suffers the same problems as "whatever:hover" – go read the technical analysis from earlier this week for a summary of that issue.
Using :active in addition to :focus works for IE/Win. For example:
.skip:active, .skip:focus { /* … */ }
"Using :active in addition to :focus works for IE/Win."
…doesn't seem to. I added it to the style sheet, but I'm not observing anything different in IE.
"I added it to the style sheet, but I'm not observing anything different in IE."
That's strange. It works on Tom Gilder's Blog, and on a project I'm currently working on. Actually, it even works on a copy of Mezzoblue/Proton that I saved locally, but not on the live site.
It doesn't seem to be a caching problem, since it persists even if I quit IE and delete. I'm baffled.
P.S. Tom Gilder's Blog is at http://blog.tom.me.uk/
Hot diggity dang, that :focus trick is so cool! Jeebus, I wish I had the creativity to think of things like that… *big thumbs up* :-)
Re 14: Declaring .skip:focus, .skip:active (i.e. as one declaration) means that if IE doesn't understand :focus, it *should* ignore the entire declaration. Maybe if you declare them separately it'll work?
Great thinking Greg! It didn't even occur to me that IE would skip the rule. Sad to say I've separated them out now and still don't see a difference. Oh well.
Link to Unstyled:
It would have been nicer if the unstyled link dropped the user back onto the article rather than the home page (ditto for the link back - perhaps with a named anchor).
Content Scaling:
I like your content scaling. Another important function of the padding is creating a minimum margin when the window is narrow, or font is large.
Nice notes. Your tricks about the issues are also worth remember.
You're the master, Dave!
Kudos. As a hobbiest web designer with little time to read up on new and imaganitive methods in CSS, your site has been a god send to me. Thanks.
Paul - That whole issue is one worth talking about, university's teaching old school techniques, with large companies requiring BA's for applicants. Definitely slows standards adoption..
Nice writeup Dave, the more I come through the new design the more I like it. This one really breathes without becoming unreadable or looking rediculous at wide resolutions. Now when I go back to radar, it feels claustrophobic. Strengthens the case for liquid.
A general question I know, and I don't want to start a whole thing here, but if a new client came to you today and they had no preference, would you go liquid or stay fixed?
I like the :focus trick to make the Skip Navigation links visible when tabbing through the links. Cool idea and cleverly implemented.
i like your implementation of the "skip" menu…a good expansion on something i have been using for quite a while on some sites, as outlined here http://www.splintered.co.uk/experiments/details.php?id=21
the only problem is that - again due to the :hover/:focus issue - it doesn't work for anything other than a single link in IE.
Very interesting.
I totally agree with the 'skip TO content' idea, I use that for my sites.
People do seek 'A', rather than choose to avoid 'B' so they can access 'A'. Much more positive and real world I feel.
I'm really not sure were I stand on hiding accessibilty options.
It 's strange that so many of us will display XHTML, CSS, 508 and Accessibilty referer links in our footers as 'badges'
of what our designs have achieved, but choose to style the actual accessibility options/tools as hidden from the standard design.
It's rather like keeping the wheelchair ramps at the back of public buildings because the 'look' of them might detract with the architects design.
Why do we feel the need to hide web accessibility options so thoroughly from our designs?
I really liked your content scaling also. I have always just used a margin: auto to kind of get the same effect but as you can tell its not as good of a method as this.
Paul - And you are still paying for this school?
Oh… this site looks so bad now that it hurts my eyes.
It looks very unpleasant.
I use
a:hover, a:focus, a:active { }
and it works in IE5-6 on my site to "hover" with tab on links.
Hi Dave,
It's a shame that comment box won't stay, I thought the effect was really cool. I love the skip links idea - I stumbled across it briefly a few days ago by accident; but wasn't sure what they were or how they worked. Thanks for clearing that up.
As for the text summaries on third level menu items, why don't you use the title attribute for the link. That way user's with screen readers can chose whether or not to read it, which can't be done as easily with a paragraph. I think you should be able to add the image versions using the ::after pseudo-element, rather than the paragraphs, or even a supurfluous, empty span element. Sure, :after still won't show up in IE if you eventually provide a javascript fallback for the menus, but IE user's could always read it from the tool-tip text, so it still degrades gracefully.
There ist another solution to make css based menus work in nonsupporting browsers. The trick is to apply a class (e.g. .sfhover) to li elements in the navigation when they are moused over and to remove it when moused out. The only concession: You have to add additional rules to your css file.
What do you think about it?
See ALA-article "Suckerfish Dropdowns" http://www.alistapart.com/articles/dropdowns or http://www.htmldog.com/articles/suckerfish
I have used this accessibility technique for quite a while with one link, and no problems in IE. I've also implemented the same with 3 links on my blog at [emps] : http://emps.l-c-n.com/
where it seems to work fine (tested so far on 7 different machines).
Wonderful, wonderful to see such an excellent web producer take a chance and "be true to thine own self." Now a comment to myself: "The reason for visiting Mezzoblue on a regular basis in the first place is to be bathed in the clarity of the written word, so remember the reason for your non graphic browser options."

I am writing to you with a request for your attention and action.
As you may know, 28 Greenpeace activists (as well as a freelance photographer and a freelance videographer) took part in a peaceful protest at Gazprom's drilling platform Prirazlomnaya on September 18th.
Two of the activists tried to climb the side of the platform and attempted to stage a safe, peaceful protest. More than 24 hours later, Russian security services descended from a helicopter onto the deck of the Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise, seized the ship at gunpoint and detained the crew. This took place outside Russia's territorial waters.
These activists and freelancers were held for two months in detention centers in Murmansk and Saint Petersburg. While they have now all been granted bail, they remain accused of serious charges and could face years in jail if convicted for a crime they did not commit.
I am very concerned by the response of Russian authorities. The charges of piracy and hooliganism, which carry maximum 15 and 7 year jail sentences respectively, are disproportionate.
You have an important voice in this matter. Please use your position to promote fairness and reason.
The crew of the Arctic Sunrise were protesting at the Prirazlomnaya for purely unselfish reasons. As the ice is retreating, oil companies are moving north to drill for the fuels that are causing the ice to melt. The Arctic 30 were acting out of a deeply held conviction that this is a risky enterprise, when an oil spill would be catastrophic for the entire region. They should not be charged with such a serious crime as hooliganism for taking peaceful, safe action to protest the dangerous industrialization of the Arctic.
Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and 13 Nobel Peace Prize Laureates have joined hundreds of thousands of people across the globe calling for the release of the Arctic 30.
I am writing to add my voice.
I am asking for your help.
Please join me in calling for:
All charges to be dropped and the 28 activists and two freelancers immediately freed to go home to their families.
A commitment that the activists and freelancers continue to have access to full legal representation of their own choice, as well as consular services, translators, and human rights inspectors.
An investigation into the destructive and secretive activities of oil companies in the Arctic, and a ban on offshore oil drilling in the region.
I urge you to relay these requests to the Russian government in Moscow immediately. Please join me in calling for the swift release of the Arctic 30.

Justin Bieber was performing during the Dubai leg of his "Believe" tour when an overly enthusiastic fan rushed onstage, Us Weekly reported Sunday. Concert security tackled the fan, who knocked over Bieber's piano in the process.
"A man ran on stage during 'Believe' and tried to grab Justin and knocked the piano over," a source close to Bieber told Us Weekly. "He was a fan. Security detained the young man. All was fine and Justin continued the show."
According to The National, the young fan was wearing a white shirt and jeans when he rushed on stage to disrupt the show. After three minutes, the 19-year-old pop star continued playing as if nothing happened.
Tech investor Chris Sacca also captured Vine video of the subsequent "mayhem":
Whoa. Crazy fan tackled @justinbieber and knocked the piano down the stage. Mayhem. vine.co/v/b2uVHAJn0je— Chris Sacca (@sacca) May 5, 2013

Wildcat Women Give Fans a Sneak Peak at 2003 Squad
Nov. 1, 2002
Complete Release in PDF Format
Download Free Acrobat Reader
WHAT'S HAPPENING: The 2002-03 University of Arizona women's basketball team will play its annual Red & Blue Game on Tuesday, Nov. 5, at 7 p.m. in the McKale Center. Admission is free.
THIS YEAR: The Wildcats return seven letterwinners, including four starters, from last season's 14-14 squad. Two redshirt freshmen, two transfers and four true freshmen comprise this year's class of eight newcomers. Such an infusion of 'new blood' should bode well for the Cats, who remain in the hunt for a return to the NCAA tournament for the first time since the 1999-2000 season.

#35 - Krista Warren (F/G, 6-2, Sr., Cloverdale, Calif.)
#11 - Dee-Dee Wheeler (G, 5-6, So., Chicago, Ill.)
Coached by Denise Dove Ianello
WHO'S BACK: Sophomore center Danielle Adefeso (Los Angeles, Calif./St. Monica HS) provides added depth to the Wildcat frontcourt. A 6-2 center, Adefeso was one of the Cats' top substitute posts while playing in 23 contests last year. She really started coming on strong late in the season, averaging 4.0 points and 3.3 rebounds over the final six games of the year.
Despite missing seven games due to a concussion, junior guard Candice Allen (Ontario, Calif./Ayala HS) still finished the 2001-02 season with averages of 10.0 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.1 steals per game. She was Arizona's fourth-leading scorer, and her steals average was fifth-best in the Pac-10 for the season.
Senior guard Julie Brase (Tucson, Ariz./Catalina Foothills HS) returned to action last year after missing the 2000-01 season due to wrist surgery. In 2001-02, she recorded 5.6 points, 2.7 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game while playing in all but one of the season's contests.
Always a threat from three-point range, junior guard Aimee Grzyb (San Jose, Calif./Archbishop Mitty HS) saw action in every game last year, receiving the starting nod in all but three. She upped her scoring average to 10.8 points per game and was the third-leading scorer for the Cats last season.
A sophomore guard, Robin Roberson (Berkeley, Calif. HS) will be redshirting this year. She played in all but two games last season, averaging 4.8 points and 2.1 rebounds per game.
A 6-2 forward, Krista Warren (Cloverdale, Calif. HS) led Arizona and was fifth in the Pac-10 in rebounding last season, averaging 8.1 boards per game. She also registered 8.2 points per game while starting 22 contests.
The 2002 Pac-10 Freshman of the Year, sophomore guard Dee-Dee Wheeler (Chicago, Ill./Dunbar Vocational Career Aca.) is the anticipated starter at point for the Cats this season. She played in every contest last year, starting all but four, and posted averages of 12.3 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game. An outstanding shooter from beyond the arc, she was fifth in the Pac-10 in three-point percentage (.404), and she reached double digits in scoring in 19 games.
ABOUT THE REDSHIRTS: A 5-10 wing, Jessica Duger (Lake Havasu City, Ariz./Arcadia HS) transferred to the UA from Yavapai College in Prescott, Ariz., midway through last season and earned a redshirt year after making the team as a walk-on.
Redshirt freshman guard Katrina Lindner is the only 'newcomer' who already has a full year at the UA under her belt. One of the prime candidates for a starting job at the point last season, Lindner suffered an ACL tear during the team's annual Red & Blue intra-squad game on Oct. 30, 2001, and was forced to redshirt for the year. A native of Glengowrie, South Australia, Lindner is a quick, tough player who can shoot from virtually anywhere on the floor.
One of the highest-profile recruits ever to sign at Arizona, redshirt freshman center Shawntinice 'Polkey' Polk will finally see action this season after joining the program midway through last year. A 2001 first team All-American, Polk originally signed with the Cats in the fall of 2000 but did not qualify academically to play during the 2001-02 season. She arrived on-campus in January of 2002 and earned a redshirt year, so the Wildcats will have her for four full seasons.
ABOUT THE NEWCOMERS: Only the second Canadian ever signed by Bonvicini at Arizona, 6-1 forward Anna Chappell was three-time Most Valuable Player for Kwalicum Senior Secondary in Qualicum Beach, British Columbia.
A 5-10 guard from Anchorage, Alaska, Natalie Jones was a Parade All-American and was the 2002 USA Today Alaska Player of the Year after leading East Anchorage High School to its third straight state championship.
A 6-2 forward from Sarajevo, Bosnia, Svjetlana Papcevic averaged 14.4 ppg and 8.9 rpg playing at Pratt (Kan.) Community College over the last two seasons. In 2002, she racked up 484 points and was named second team All-Region IV and third team All-KJCCC Western Division.
A 5-11 perimeter player from El Paso, Texas, Phakisha Peterson was a two-time honorable mention All-Texas selection and four-time All-District I-5A honoree at Andress High School.
With the reputation of being a tough defender, 6-0 forward CoCoa Sanford is from Morningside High School in Inglewood, Calif. She is the career rebounding record-holder at Morningside, with 1,517 boards, and put up averages of 17.3 ppg, 13.7 rpg and 5.0 spg as a senior while leading the Monarchs to a CIF Div-3A semifinals berth.
WHO'S GONE: Four players on last year's roster will not be back this season. Posts Elizabeth Pickney and LaKeisha Taylor exhausted their eligibility, and both were drafted by WNBA teams in the spring, although neither was successful in making her squad. Guard Jenn Chesney left the program last spring, and wing Michelle Tibbetts did not return to the team this fall.
A four-year starter at forward, Pickney was one of the most decorated players ever to come through the Arizona program. She had 86 double-digit scoring performances in her career, including 45 over her final 51 games. She tallied 11 career double-doubles, with five last season alone. Pickney was never held scoreless in any game during her career, and she collected 23 scoring performances of 20 points or better.
Pickney played in 121 consecutive games for the Wildcats and finished her career as Arizona's all-time leader in games started, with 112. During the 2001-02 season, Pickney also became Arizona's all-time leader in blocked shots, with 147, which also places her eighth on the Pac-10 career list in that category. Pickney is second all-time at the UA in scoring, with 1620 points, and in rebounding, with 736 boards. She is among the Arizona career leaders in 16 different statistical categories.
Center LaKeisha Taylor had six double-doubles in her career at Arizona and had 28 career double-digit scoring performances, including four of 20 points or better. She is fourth on the UA's career field goal percentage list and played in 116 games during her four years.
HEAD COACH JOAN BONVICINI: The winningest coach in Arizona women's basketball history, Joan Bonvicini has nurtured the Wildcat program into an upward-rising powerhouse. In 11 seasons at the helm of the Arizona program, Bonvicini has guided the Wildcats to six post-season appearances, including four NCAA tournament berths and two in the WNIT.
Just beginning her 12th season with the Wildcats, Bonvicini holds a 193-131 (.596) mark at Arizona and is 518-202 (.719) in 23 years as a head coach. She is 23-14 in NCAA tournament play and has never lost a first-round game in 13 appearances.
Prior to taking over at the UA, Bonvicini led Long Beach State to 10 consecutive NCAA appearances, including two trips to the Final Four. She registered a 325-71 mark in 12 seasons with the 49ers.
DID YOU KNOW: Since Joan Bonvicini took over the Arizona program in 1991, the Wildcats have gone 103-94 against Pac-10 teams, although they have a 69-39 league mark over the last six seasons combined.
THE REST OF THE STAFF: Awarded the title of associate head coach in 1998, Denise Dove Ianello (Northern Illinois, 1992) is in her 11th year at the UA, functioning as both the team's recruiting coordinator and a perimeter coach. In his fourth year at the UA, assistant coach Curtis Loyd (Southern Utah, 1994) is involved with scouting and with coaching the post players and is the director of the Joan Bonvicini Hoop Camp. Assistant coach Kellee Barney (Idaho, 1983) was just added to the Wildcat staff last February, and her duties include recruiting, scouting and floor work with the players.
THE LITTLEST WILDCAT: Associate head coach Denise Dove Ianello was certainly busy during the off-season! On April 9, 2002, she gave birth to Zachary Robert Ianello, the first child for Denise and her husband Rob, who is the UA football recruiting coordinator and wide receivers coach.
LOOKING AHEAD: The Wildcats will see their first action against outside competition on Monday, Nov. 11, when they face TJ MUS CZ Strakonice, from the Czech Republic, in an exhibition at 7 p.m. The Cats will have another preseason tuneup on Sunday, Nov. 17, with an exhibition against Team Concept at 7 p.m.
CALL HER POLKEY: At her request, Shawntinice Polk would appreciate being called 'Polkey' (single-name reference only) as much as possible.
GOING POLLING: Nine of the 19 opponents on the Cats' 2002-03 schedule have been ranked or received votes for ranking in several preseason polls that have already been released.
Louisiana State, Stanford and Georgia were ranked in each of the 10 polls released so far. LSU has been placed as high as third (Women's Basketball News Service, Street & Smith's and ESPN.com), while Stanford has been ranked as high as third (Lindy's Magazine) also. Georgia has been placed as high as fourth (All-Star Girls' Report).
Oregon has appeared among the top 25 in five different polls, receiving ranking as high as 18th (All-Star Girls' Report). Washington has been ranked in four polls, with a high of No. 16 (WomensCollegeHoops.com), and received votes in one other (GballMag.com).
New Mexico was ranked in three polls, with a high of No. 21 (Athlon and WomensCollegeHoops.com). USC (24th - Athlon), Ohio State (20th - All-Star Girls' Report) and Pepperdine (22nd - Street & Smith's) made appearances in one top 25 apiece.
GOOD BEGINNINGS: With Joan Bonvicini at the program's helm, the Wildcats have won seven straight season openers and nine in the 11 years she has been at the UA.
LOVE THOSE TV GAMES: Arizona garnered a perfect 6-0 record in televised games last season. During those contests, the Cats averaged 84.5 points per game, out-scored their opponents by an average of 16.3 ppg and shot 46.5 percent from the floor, 38.1 percent from three-point range and 82.8 percent from the free throw line.
That should bode well for the Cats this year, as they have at least five contests already scheduled for broadcast and have the potential for two more to be picked up by television before the season is over.
CHECKING THE RECORD BOOK: Wildcat senior Julie Brase is third in on the UA career list in three-point percentage (.369), tied for sixth in career three-pointers made (83) and is seventh in three-pointers attempted (225).
Junior guard Aimee Grzyb is fourth in career three-point percentage (.362), fourth in three-pointers made (100) and fourth in three-pointers attempted (276).
THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME: Although the McKale Center has historically been kind to the Cats, they logged six losses at home last season, their most losses in McKale since the 1994-95 team dropped seven home games.
The Wildcats have won 29 of their last 38 home games and are 51-14 on their home court over the last four seasons combined. During Joan Bonvicini's 11 seasons at Arizona, the Wildcats have posted a 116-49 mark in McKale Center. Arizona has an all-time record of 182-157 on its home court since the 1976-77 season.
80 IS THE MAGIC NUMBER: It seems that the 80-point mark almost always means adding another to the 'win' column for the Wildcats. In the 30-year history of UA women's basketball, the Cats have posted a 140-21 record when scoring 80 points or more in a game. Under Bonvicini, the Wildcats have gone 100-14 when topping that 80-point plateau.
CAT SCRATCHES: The Arizona women's basketball program has a 352-419 (.457) all-time record, however it is 156-83 (.653) from 1994 to present... Joan Bonvicini has a 194-107 career record against Pac-10 teams.
ON LOCATION: Last year, Arizona was 9-6 at home, 5-7 on the road and 0-1 in neutral games.
THE CATS AND PAC-10 OPENERS: Under Joan Bonvicini, Arizona has a 7-4 mark in Pac-10 openers and has won its first conference contest in seven of the last nine years.
2003 PAC-10 CONFERENCE TOURNAMENT: The 2003 State Farm Pac-10 Women's Basketball Tournament will be on March 7-10 at HP Pavilion in San Jose, Calif.
2001-02 IN BRIEF: There are no two ways about it -- the 2001-02 season was a rough one for the University of Arizona women's basketball team. The difficulties actually started last August, when anticipated starter Veranda James left the program for personal reasons. Then the Wildcats found out that their star recruit Shawntinice Polk, a high school All-American, didn't meet academic requirements, wouldn't be on campus until January and even then wouldn't be eligible to play until the 2002-03 season. To compound the problem, sophomore guard Jenn Chesney went down with an ACL tear in September, and freshman guard Katrina Lindner, another potential starter, tore an ACL in October.
So, the Wildcats entered yet another season short-handed. Most of the year, they had 10 active players, but more than once during the season, they found themselves down to only eight. Of those 10 active players, only four had played more than one season of collegiate basketball prior to last year.
The youth and general inexperience of last year's squad shown through, as Arizona played to a 14-14 overall mark, the team's worst record since the 1994-95 team went 11-19. A positive was that the Cats were 10-8 in Pac-10 play, a one-game improvement over the 2001 team's 9-9 finish, but last year's 10-8 mark was good enough only for a tie with Oregon for sixth place in the final conference standings.
By virtue of tie-breakers, Arizona earned the No. 6 seed in the inaugural State Farm Pac-10 Women's Basketball Tournament. However, the UA was pitted against No. 3 seed and eventual tournament champion Arizona State in the first round, and the Cats found their season over much earlier than they'd hoped it would be. It also ended Arizona's six-year string of consecutive post-season appearances.
INDIVIDUALLY IN 2001-02: Averaging 16.1 points per game, senior forward Elizabeth Pickney led the Wildcats in scoring. Freshman guard Dee-Dee Wheeler was second in scoring, averaging 12.3 ppg, followed closely by sophomore guards Aimee Grzyb (10.8 ppg) and Candice Allen (10.0 ppg).
Senior center LaKeisha Taylor was fifth on the scoring chart, with 9.6 ppg, trailed by junior wing Krista Warren's 8.2 ppg. Fellow junior Julie Brase averaged 5.6 ppg, and freshman guard Robin Roberson registered 4.8 points per game.
Krista Warren was Arizona's top rebounder, with a career-best season average of 8.1 rpg. Pickney was a close second, averaging 8.0 rpg, followed by LaKeisha Taylor's 5.7 rpg and Dee-Dee Wheeler's 3.4 rpg.
FREE-WHEELIN': Guard Dee-Dee Wheeler was a phenomenal rookie for the Wildcats last season. She became the first UA rookie to be named Pac-10 Freshman of the Year since former Wildcat Adia Barnes earned that honor in 1995. Wheeler finished the season as the top-scoring freshman in the Pac-10 and was among the conference leaders in five different statistical categories.

Mouth guards are U-shaped pieces of plastic that fit between the
upper and lower teeth, protectively molding around the upper teeth. Use of a
mouth guard can prevent dental and jaw injury during sports. Dental injury may
lead to misalignment of the teeth (malocclusion).
Although some amateur sports, such as football, field hockey, ice hockey,
lacrosse, and boxing, require the use of mouth guards, dentists recommend mouth
guard use in any sport that may cause dental injury.
Different types of mouth guards are available.
Mouth guards are meant to protect the teeth and mouth. They don't
prevent gradual tooth movement.

Meet the Harlem Shake. Yes, we know what you're thinking — this dance craze isn't new. The Shake dates back almost 30 years to the '80s, and became a phenomenon in hip-hop music videos in 2001, according to BroBible.com.
But this latest trend isn't your traditional Harlem Shake. One YouTube video posted on Feb. 2, featuring four people in masks and costumes thrusting away may be the reason we already have a Gangnam Style of 2013. And Canadians aren't being shy about jumping on the bandwagon either — several universities, workplaces and families have already posted videos online, including a subway version from Montreal, an indoors and outdoors version from The University Of Guelph and a giant lecture version from the University of Toronto.
Using the 'Harlem Shake' song by Baauer, all the videos start with a room full of people, and one person wearing a mask and making a thrusting motion. As everyone appears to ignore the random person dancing, a quick video jump cuts to everyone in the frame (in most cases) dancing with foreign objects, gyrating on the floor, dry humping walls, stuffed toys, and each other.
Hundreds of versions on YouTube, including ones from the Norwegian army, Maker Studios and even an underwater one by the University of Georgia's men swimming team, have brought in millions of views in the last couple of weeks. University campuses are undeniably the most popular spots to recreate the dance, probably because it's the easiest place to get a large group of people together to, well, act pretty ridiculously.
What do you think? Are you already annoyed or running to your computer to make your own version? Let us know in the comments below:

TOLEDO, Ohio – Senior Courtney Hurt recorded her 23rd double-double of the season with game-highs of 26 points and 17 rebounds, and classmate Andrea Barbour added 23 points, but VCU couldn't overcome a late push by Toledo and fell to the Rockets 81-64 Thursday night in the Postseason WNIT's Round of 16 in front of 3,042 fans.
Trailing by five with 9:13 to go, a traditional 3-point play from sophomore Robyn Parks and a jumper in the paint from senior Chelsea Snyder knotted the score at 51-51 with 7:48 left. However, Toledo, which never led by more than five points during the first 13 minutes of the second half, responded with a 22-3 run spanning nearly 5:00 to put the game out of reach.
Reigning WNIT champion Toledo (24-9) has now won 10 straight postseason games at home, while picking up wins in 57 of its last 64 games inside Savage Arena. Meanwhile, the Rams (19-15) reached the Round of 16 for the second time in the last three years, which matches the program's deepest postseason run.
The senior duo of Hurt and Barbour provided 49 of the Rams' 64 points in what proved be their final collegiate game. Snyder also added five points and four rebounds, while Parks chipped in five points off the bench for the Rams.
Toledo raced out to a 20-10 advantage nine minutes into the contest before VCU found its groove. The Rams responded with baskets on eight straight possessions and erupted for an 18-2 run during a nearly eight-minute stretch and took their largest lead at 28-22 on a jumper from Barbour with 5:20 showing. Hurt scored in four straight and five of seven possessions for VCU, collecting 10 of her 14 first half points during the run.
Then after a nearly 5:30 scoring drought, Toledo caught fire and scored the final 12 points of the half to regain the lead. Courtney Ingersoll fueled the spurt, scoring seven, including a long jumper as time expired to hand Toledo a 33-28 advantage at the break.
VCU would keep the score close out the locker room trailing by no more than five points through the first 13 minutes of the second half. Down 44-39 with 14:49 to go, back-to-back baskets by Barbour and Parks cut the deficit to one less than a minute later.
Toledo would again go up by five with 9:13 to go before an and-one from Parks and a jumper in the paint by Snyder knotted the score at 51-51 with 7:48 left. However, The Rockets responded with a quick 13-1 run to take their largest lead of the game at the time, before scoring 30 of the final 42 points to seal the win.
Ingersoll paced three Toledo players in double figure scoring with 24 points, including 4 of 10 from long range. Andola Dortch added 20 and Yolanda Richardson chipped in 17 points and eight rebounds off the bench.
