Last night, The Rock and CM Punk had their first face-to-face confrontation, leading to their WWE championship match at the Royal Rumble. Punk promised to keep his championship. Rock promised to lay the smack down on Punk's candy-ass. Punk ended up eating a Rock Bottom to end the segment.
It was an intense and entertaining exchange that kicked the hype for the Rumble into high gear, but who was the real winner of this opening salvo of what promises to be a tremendous battle?
PRESENCE: The Rock looked bigger, stronger, and healthier than ever. He made Punk look physically puny in comparison; that shot about Punk looking like "Popeye on crack" had a ring of truth to it. Of course, Punk had competed in a grueling TLC match against Ryback less than 45 minutes earlier, while Rock was fresh and rested. Rock has also been living the good life in Hollywood as Punk has been globetrotting in defense of the WWE title. But, side by side, Rock dwarfed Punk and made it look like he could eat him for breakfast. WINNER: The Rock
CROWD REACTION: The Rock got the big ovation we all expected, but it wasn't quite at the same level as it was a year ago at this time. He made the millions (and millions) of fans chant on command, but the "cookie-puss" chants petered out quickly. There's no doubt that Rock is a mega-star, but the reception he received was slightly lacking. Rock even seemed surprised by the quiet crowd at one point. Rock got a better reaction than Punk, but the difference wasn't as much as you might expect. WINNER: The Rock
INTENSITY: Rock raised the eyebrow, coined some new phrases to trend on Twitter, and talked about where he would place his size-15 boot. Punk stared back with steely eyes. Rock got cutesy and did his tried and true shtick, and Punk called him out on it. Perhaps the best line of the night was when Punk promised he would "kick The Rock's ass" every time Rock deigned to make an appearance in WWE. Rock did a routine; Punk delivered passion. WINNER: CM Punk
MATERIAL: Punk's "pipe bomb" wasn't quite as explosive as his infamous 2011 screed, but it had a few moments (particularly when he put over Tyson Kidd and Daniel Bryan, and wondered why the millionaires in the back don't share any of that cash with the fans). The Rock seemed off his game. He made the standard jokes and pushed the TV-PG limits a little, but he came off like he was taking Punk lightly and disrespecting the WWE title in the process. Rock even tossed the belt out of the ring at the end of the promo. I don't think Punk would ever do that. WINNER: CM Punk
DELIVERY: CM Punk was spot-on for the entire 20-plus minutes he was out for his promo. He was passionate, condescending, well spoken, and smarmy. He brought his A-game. The Rock stumbled a few times (like when he couldn't remember what to call Popeye's pipe). Hollywood has affected "The Great One." He's become reliant on memorizing his lines. Punk, on the other hand, can improvise with the best of them, because every word that comes out of his mouth comes from his heart.
WINNER: CM Punk, by a split decision. Punk came out of this first confrontation looking a bit better than his Rumble opponent. Rock still has size, strength, and superstardom on his side, but Punk more than held his own. It wouldn't surprise me if Punk actually came out of the Rumble as the fan favorite.

Get the Recipe
This weekend, while worrying over a dessert with the satisfaction level of pie and the portability of a cookie to tote to a Central Park soiree, I landed on an idea so simple, I can hardly believe that it took me this long to figure it out. Hand pies, made in my standard-sized muffin pan and filled with the delicious, simple berries of this blessed season. Yes.
This particular part of the summer happens to be the best for bite-sized berries and cherries for filling tiny pies. At New York's Union Square farmers' market, I scored a beautiful mix of sweet cherries in gold, blush, red, and deep purple hues—the perfect combination of juicy, sweet, and pretty for these tiny, adorable pies. While I'm a huge fan of cherry pies, I know I'll be making these in blueberry, raspberry, and currant before the summer is through.
Keep in mind that for small pies, the same rules about chilling shaped dough before baking apply. For best results, treat the 12 tiny pies with the same care that you would one large pie. Punch out the bottom crusts from one sheet of chilled dough using a round cutter, press them into the muffin cavities, and allow the bottom crusts to chill and relax. For the top crusts, roll out the a sheet of dough and allow it the same resting time in the fridge before cutting into circles, weaving lattices, or punching out tiny shapes with cutters. Whether you're well-practiced in pie dough or a beginner, it's easy to make these adorable pies for your next on-the-go summer celebration.

Planning your garden? Plant an extra row to help fight hunger
Even though spring is off to a chilly start, gardeners are already planning their gardens. The City is encouraging gardeners to help fight hunger by planting an extra row of produce at home or in a community garden to donate to neighborhood food shelves. The City of Minneapolis Health Department's Healthy Food Shelf Network unites gardeners with food shelves to help get healthy food into everyone's kitchens. In 2013 more than 114 gardeners donated 730 pounds of produce to 17 Minneapolis food shelves.
In 2011, there were more than 3 million visits to food shelves in Minnesota. People who rely on food shelves appreciate the same healthy eating options that any of us want, but healthy foods are often in short supply at many local food shelves. Instead, donations are often high in fat and calories and low in nutritional value.
In Minneapolis, only 28 percent of low-income residents eat the recommended number of servings of fruits and vegetables each day. When people donate healthy foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables; whole grains; and low-fat, low-sugar or low-sodium items, they help food shelf recipients eat healthier and prevent chronic health issues such as obesity, heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes. By making healthier foods available at food shelves, we help food shelf recipients eat better and become healthier in the process, which reduces demand for expensive health services.
How residents can get involved
Connect with a local food shelf to learn about the types of produce most in demand.
Plan an extra row (or two) in the garden.
Gather seeds and supplies and start planting.
Share the best produce with a local food shelf.
Events May 17
Health Department staff will attend upcoming events sponsored by the Local Food Resource Hubs to encourage gardeners to plant an extra row for food shelf recipients. Anyone who commits to participating will receive a free pack of seeds and help connecting with his or her closest food shelf. The Local Food Resource Hubs Network helps residents grow their own fresh produce. Hub members have access to free or low-cost classes, tools, volunteer opportunities and social events. The upcoming events are at:
1 -4 p.m., Saturday, May 17, Grace Center for Community Life, 1500 Sixth St. NE
9 a.m.-noon, Saturday, May 17, Redeemer Center for Life, 1800 Glenwood Ave. N.
9 a.m.-noon, Saturday, May 17, Minneapolis American Indian Center, 1530 E. Franklin Ave.
Forty gardeners have already committed to planting an extra row this year.
Non-gardeners can help too
- Donate purchased items such as fresh fruits; fresh vegetables; whole grains or low-fat, low-sodium and low-sugar canned and packaged foods. Regarding fresh produce, food shelves love to receive items such as fresh apples, oranges, bananas, squash, tomatoes, carrots and fresh greens.
- Donate money. Food shelves get special prices on healthy foods from food banks and large wholesale suppliers, so they can typically stretch financial donations further than individuals can through their own grocery purchases. With a financial donation, food shelves purchase the exact types of healthy foods their clients will use.
- Host a healthy food drive at your school, neighborhood event, worksite or place of worship, and encourage others to bring in healthy items for a local food shelf.
To learn more about donating fresh produce and other healthy foods to food shelves in Minneapolis, visit www.healthyfoodshelves.org.
Support for the Plant an Extra Row project is provided by the Minneapolis Health Department's Statewide Health Improvement Program with funding from the Minnesota Department of Health.

My adventures with UAE sourced chocolates commenced forth furthermore this week with me finally completing a long term reader request in the form of these Galaxy Jewels Assortment. This review was made possible by ChocolateMission friend Fiona, who is currently an expat residing in the UAE.
The Galaxy Jewels typically constitutes a chocolate selection containing ten different chocolate varieties. This special Arabic Mix being reviewed today was a current limited edition offering that contained some never seen before flavours. Presentation wise I thought the package was very good looking, and I was impressed with both the packaging and chocolates themselves, which were held within individual foil wrappers. Contained within the plastic box a handy menu was included that allowed easy identification of the five different variants. As ever I have given ratings and my thoughts to each of them below using my usual scale of Awful-to-Superb.
Milk Chocolate - My thoughts on the quality of the UAE Galaxy milk chocolate were given in full in my last UAE chocolate superpost (See HERE). Not to my surprise, the quality from that selection, and this Jewels Assortment held consistent, with the milk chocolate here suffering once again from the enhanced levels of hydrogenated palm oil. This once again hampered the creamy flavours and typical Galaxy soft mouth feel across the different flavours. Poor.
Mixed Nuts - This blue wrapped offering far exceeded expectations with the three nut laced blocks made all the better in both taste and texture. Flavour wise the saltiness of the pistachios and woody hazelnuts gave the taste an extra dimension. Alongside this taste progression, the small sized nut particles also disrupted the waxy feel of the melting chocolate which was also a big positive. Good.
Coffee Caramel - This was another piece that was very positively influenced by a supplementary filling and I was again left relatively impressed. It was obviously quite a positive thing that the caramel took up a large proportion of the chocolate, thus detracting attention from it's poorness. The caramel inside was neither amazingly buttery or salt enhanced like the best caramels of this world, however the coffee note was surprisingly strong and had good cut through in the taste. Good.
Semsemah - This was always going to be one of the more interesting flavours and comprised of a milk chocolate heart shell containing a sesame flavoured praline centre. As you expect the outer portion melted with the same slimy mouth fell, though the praline at least had a little more grip to it texture wise. In terms of flavours the sesame element created a lovely buttery, cream nut taste that to me came across as mixture of almonds and chestnuts. This chocolate was good enough to make me want to try out some more sesame enhanced offerings. Good.
Qamardeen - What on earth is Qamardeen!? My brief amount of research shows that it is a hotel in the UAE - apart from that I'm totally oblivious!? What I can tell you about is what this chocolate constituted of, which was milk chocolate with a slightly fruity tasting caramel centre. If I had to guess the fruit I would hazard a guess at it being something along the lines of dates, as the fruitiness had a poignant sugaryness to it. This caramel wasn't as good as the coffee, but the chocolate was still all the better for it. Standard.
Overall this selection has showcased that even poor quality chocolate can be masked by some fair standard additional flavoured centres. I will save you me babbling on about the standard of the milk chocolate again, but it really is worth making the point that it is highly effected by the supplementary fats content. Hopefully that will give you some perspective in to how good some of these fillings were - the sesame praline, coffee caramel and mixed nuts especially standing out as unique and great tasting variations. Having tasted this limited edition Arabic Mix I'm now even more curious to see what the original selection has to offer with it's ten different flavours. If you come across this Arabic Mix I would suggest it as a highly superior option to many of the original Galaxy UAE offerings. This isn't chocolate in any sort of grand form, but if your a UAE citizen I would say they are at least worthy of your consideration - they are better than anything else I have experienced from this area.

Editor, the Record:
Editor, the Record:
The Republican spectacle occurring in the U.S. Congress is a blemish upon our "exceptional" nation.
In January, Congressional Republicans resisted efforts to raise taxes on the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans and were quite willing to drive our nation over the so-called "fiscal cliff" unless they got their way. Fortunately, a rare compromise averted this manufactured crisis.
Here we go again in March, with the so-called "sequester." A law voted by congress to be so onerous that only crazy legislators would allow it to be enacted. That is exactly what the Congressional Republicans did.
The Republican Congress continues to resist any notion of raising revenues by asking the wealthiest Americans (who can afford it) and corporations to pay a little more in taxes as a balanced plan to raise revenue and cut spending. Average citizens expect both.
Additionally, the Republican Congress continues to resist any notion of strengthening of common sense gun safety laws. They either are a shill for the NRA and gun lobby, or are afraid of them. Both are equally offensive.
The Republican Congress is dysfunctional. It promotes one manufactured crisis after another. While some may find the Republican spectacle to be entertaining, our nation deserves better.

Post subject: My RL Issues (try and beat this.....)
Interesting section of the forums.
Here are my main distractions... in order.
1. I am a stay at home dad: When I do get to work on my comic it is when my 1 year old son is asleep. This can last anywhere from 1 1/2 hours to 30 minutes. He usually falls asleep twice during the day (usually). So that adds up on average of about, maybe, 2 hours a day I get to myself.
2. I am married: So... my wife comes home and wants to talk about her day.. 1 hour gone. She than wants to enjoy my company.... 2 hours gone. Than she wants me (even though I have done it 5 times that day already) to change the poopy diaper... (you wouldn't think it... but).... 1 hour gone. By the time I get them both to sleep I have about 1 hour to myself.
3. FPS Games (Skyrim thrown into the mix): Yes, I am a 31 year old gamer. I love my FPS games. I think it has something to do with my military background. Anyways, in the above mentioned Real Life side trackers FPS games get in the way as well. Sometimes I just need to jump on BFBC2 and lay these shot gun wielding noobs on their asses with my UMP to let out some anger.
All in all.... I can't believe I am actually hitting the 3 comics a week deadline I have set for myself...

I'm not at all trying to compete, just stating my situation as it is currently like you. I want to stress that I'm not doing anything but stating what's going on here and figured starting it's own tread would be ...hm, just depressing. Your situation is tough but, I'm going to assume that's really what comes with being a parent, I wouldn't know and never will but I will say that's unfortunate to hear all the same, I hope things get better for you.
I stay at home most(all) of the time to take care of my disabled mother who needs attention for panic attacks, to have food prepared for her, to make sure she doesn't injure herself. I basically go out when someone wants to grab food from somewhere or I'm needed to run a quick errand, even then I'm out no longer than an hour.
She once was a talented artist producing clay figurines by the dozens selling more than she could make, she also painted and took care of a lot of things in the house. Around 2007 we noticed her work looking odd randomly, 1 or 2 figures just looking ...off. She started to have trouble understanding how the lines in the street work. Years later we find out she has a rare form of aspasia (a rare thing to begin with).
Now she's barely capable of speaking, cannot recognize herself in the mirror (sees someone else and talks to said person), has trouble with many other things and basically it's only going to get worse. She wanders the halls at 4am sometimes confused where she is and often says she wants to go home, when she is. She asks about her parents who died, one of alzhimers (her father died of this, which makes this situation all the more difficult).
So I stay at home, take care of her, try and run a business my brother wanted to start up with me, I also clean the house and am in the process of looking for a job that can fit these hours, oh and my webcomic on the side. I would say what I do is hard but I imagine my mother who still has her mind about has it worse, unable to communicate, bouts of confusion, helplessness. All I can do is try and be there for her and make her happy.

I've never understood how some people can churn out a comic each week, let alone two or three times a week, and have an active life they live on the side and top of all that, as well.
Me, I barely manage my 'twice a month' updates, and generally even dealt away with coloring, since that takes too long to make it look good.
So, my hat off to you, sir.

To the OP - I think I can try and beat you. Here's my list:
1) I work as an IT manager at one of my countrys largest banks - that's 9 hours gone from each day (10 and a half if you count driving to and from work).
2) I'm studying for a degree (psychology, a total change of direction - tired of computers) - so that's a couple more hours a day gone for studying.
3) I have a dog, two cats and a rabbit - and they all need to be hugged! Unlimited cuteness time per day added.
4) I have a girlfriend - she needs some me time (I need to talk to her, and explain her why I hug the kittens more than her. That's atleast an hour long conversation!). Not to mention she wants me to do the dishes and take out the trash...
5) I train in martial arts twice per week + I need to stay in shape, so in theory I should be doing daily workouts for atleast 40 minutes each (no, I don't do it. Don't have the time)
6) Computer games - yes, I'm a gamer. No, I don't have time for games. Yes, I play anyhow.
7) Web comic - because of all the many reasons above, I've not had any time for my webcomic, which requires daily attention (like drawing and coloring and telling it how pretty it is). I'm coming back though!
So here's me

Jeez. Some of you guys have it pretty bad. I'm on disability, so I consider comic stuff and promotion to be a full-time job right now. (I also go to school part-time.)
If I can make a suggestion to the OP - have you considered decreasing your updates? Maybe down to two a week? I used to think that updating multiple times a week was the way to go, but now that I've decreased it to once a week I'm not really seeing a big difference in readership. I sometimes do bonus pages in between, but not always. Maybe you can going down to two updates/week for a little bit and see if it works for ya.
In any case - props for being a stay at home dad! I'm sure your wife appreciates you.

Builder SEO Plugin
Builder SEO plugin is currently in BETA. Please see http://ithemes.com/forum/topic/3404-builder-seo-plugin-beta-released/
Builder SEO Plugin Beta Overview Video:
Builder SEO and AIO SEO plugins
If you have both AIO SEO and the Builder SEO plugin installed, you can ignore the "SEO Options" box provided by the Builder SEO plugin. By default, Builder's SEO settings will take a back seat when AIOSEO is present. So, even if you fill out both sets of options, only the AIOSEO options are being used.
In order to clean up your Post and Page editors, you can click the "Screen Options" tab at the top of each editor, uncheck the "SEO Options" option, and only see the "All in One SEO Pack" options from then on.
- The Builder SEO plugin by default uses "index, follow" for blog home pages, static home pages, and unique content (posts, pages, attachments, and other singular views) while using "noindex, follow" for all other views (search results, archives, admin pages, feeds, etc). All of these options are configurable as seen in this screenshot.


text: It's Not Okay, Cupid! is a bold comedic webseries created & written by NYC comedians Stefanie Grassley and Julia Tokarz. Each episode is inspired by a 100% real (& really scary) message they received on the online dating site, OkCupid.com. The series imagines how these first dates may have gone if Stefanie and Julia had been crazy enough to agree to meet the man who sent the message. Transforming straight-men into straight-women, this cutting-edge webseries gives birth to many bizarre, hilarious, and painfully relatable moments to anyone who has made an attempt at online dating. Packed full of NYC comedians and improvisers from the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, It's Not Okay, Cupid! is a great match for anyone who loves comedy.

From 12 to 18 Months - Your Developing Baby
The 12 to 18 month old baby is interested in everything. She wants to practice every new skill she learns over and over again. Once you have created a safe environment for your baby, enjoy re-exploring your house and yard with her. Spend time with your baby! She will enjoy playing with you, singing children's songs, dancing, playing Itsy Bitsy Spider, stacking toys, etc.
General Development
By her first birthday your baby will probably have tripled her birth weight. She will also continue to gain in length, but the rate she is growing will be slower from now on. She is getting longer in her trunk and extremities (taller) while her head grows more slowly. She should be sleeping 12-14 hours at night and may only need one daily nap. However, a regular nap routine will keep your baby from getting overly tired. Plan a time for naps and schedule errands and appointments around naptime.
Development of Large Muscles
By 12 months of age your baby will probably be doing some type of walking. It may be that she is pulling up to furniture, and then cruising along it. She may be trying just a step or two on her own or she may be actually walking by now. She will walk with a wide straddle-legged step holding her arms up and out at shoulder level to help her balance. She's a toddler.
Development of Small Muscles
The toddler is an imitator. She will try to do whatever she sees you do, whether it's folding the laundry or sweeping the floors. She continues to practice new skills such as scribbling on paper. She will enjoy stacking blocks and dumping games. Her attention span is short (1-2 minutes), so keeping her busy while you get something done can be a challenge.
Development of Self Help Skills
Babies are learning many new skills during this period. While dressing, your baby will anticipate what happens next by holding out her foot for a shoe or putting out her arms when she sees her coat. She will soon be able to take off her own coat.
Development of Social Skills
The 12 to 18 month old understands simple commands. She can give you something she has, or get you something you both can see. She may not remember long enough to be able to get something from another room. She understands "no" but her desire to explore and learn about the world is stronger than her memory of "no." An immediate and consistent reaction from you (such as removing her from the object) will teach her that you mean what you say.
For more information on child development, you may contact Parents as Teachers by calling your local school district office or by visiting the National Parents as Teachers website. Another resource is ParentLink at 1-800-552-8522 or the ParentLink website.

Wedding & Engagment T-Shirts & Gifts
Real M.O.B. Apparel started when we needed a special t-shirt design to honor my then fiancee's mom. Our first Mother Of the Bride (M.O.B.) design was a big hit, and set us off in a quest to produce the best wedding, engagement and bridal party t-shirts and gifts.

Shocker (sarcasm) Valenti & Foster
How many times in a week can Valenti and Foster do a show segment on how may wins will UM have this year or how many wins does RR need to keep his job? Today is the 3rd or 4th time within the last week. I know, "stop listening" or "don't listen" its not my radio, but I'm within earshot.

BAGHDAD (AP) — Shootings and blasts killed five people in Iraq on Tuesday, including two local politicians in a town north of Baghdad who died when a bomb attached to their car exploded, officials said.
The head of Tuz Khormato's local council and a council member were killed and a third official, a mayor, was wounded, a police official said. Tuz Khormato is located about 210 kilometers (130 miles) north Baghdad.
In Bagdad, another bomb attached to a minibus in the northern Kazimiyah neighborhood killed one commuter and wounded five, another police officer said. Later that day, gunmen with pistols fitted with silencers killed a police officer in a drive-by shooting in the east of the capital, he said.
Another policeman was killed and five people were wounded when their checkpoint came under fire from gunmen in two speeding cars in a second drive-by shooting in western Baghdad.
Three medical officials confirmed the casualty figures. All officials spoke on condition of anonymity as they were not authorized to release information.
Insurgents are still able to hunt down local officials and launch lethal attacks nationwide despite the large decrease in violence in recent years.

Likes and Dislikes:
- Vanessa: His life revolves around her. He likes to think that she'd not be able to survive without him, but the fact is that it's probably the opposite.
- Drugs, Alcohol, Cigarettes: Christopher is always on something, even if it's just nicotine. Try to clean him out, and you'll meet a nasty, completely remorseless person.
- Getting his own way: As it says on the tin.
- Being treated second class: Christopher stays away from Adveni for the most part because he knows he can't control his temper when they treat him like just another human. He may have an ego, but he's not completely stupid.
- Men hitting on Vanessa: Beware, just seriously beware. He loves knowing how desirable his girl is, but thinking they have a shot with her when he's around is a big no.
- Not being in control of the situation: Not being in control makes him unravel. He will grapple to get that control back, even if it means digging himself into a much bigger hole.
Strengths and Weaknesses:
- Manipulative: Christopher can twist and manipulate a story to his will with great success. He'll constantly curl people around his fingers and play with them.
- Compulsive liar: He considers his ability to craft a story a strength, but he relies on it far too often, rarely telling people the truth.
- Addict: He won't admit it and will claim it's for a little extra fun, but Christopher would probably fall apart if he wasn't on some kind of drug, be it from class A's to alcohol, there is always something around.
- Likeable: Despite everything, and using everything, Christopher comes across as a likeable, reasonably smart guy. He's quick with a joke and people usually like him for as long as he sticks around... or lets them stick around.
- Quick temper: Christopher has a ridiculously short temper, especially when he's high. He can turn on a dime and won't apologise for it.
General Personality:
Christopher is manipulative and controlling. He likes things to be his way, and if they're not, he'll twist it until its in his favour. He lies compulsively, and mostly shows the world a cheerful and friendly face. Behind it, cruelty and manipulation is in every breath, trying to figure out how he can better his position or get rid of a problem. He is not above murder, in fact, when he needs to, he rather enjoys the power it holds.
He only cares about himself and Vanessa. Everyone else is dispensable when it comes down to it. He truly loves Vanessa, and he claims its his distrust of others that has him keep such tight reigns on her. Truthfully, he loves that she submits to him, and he keeps her close whenever he can.
Aside from running scams and simple cons to get cash, Christopher will also take any job people will pay for. He has no loyalties except to Vanessa, so the Adveni want you brought it, he'll do it. A human wants payback for a missed payment? He'll do it. He hasn't dropped his fixer roots just yet.

Christopher was born second to a family that probably never should have had kids in the first place. His parents were focussed on their careers, on money, and shitty little kids were just a drain on that resource. To most people, they were perfect parents. They provided for their children, insisted on a good education, and filled their time with activities. Christopher, however, remembers if very differently, and probably incorrectly (though he'd never admit it.) To him, his parents were cruel and distant, expecting far too much from such a young boy.
By the time he was fifteen, Christopher had been arrested twice for petty crimes, shoplifting and underage drinking. His parents, mortified, put more restrictions on their youngest son while the eldest (Cliff, 17 at the time) ran with a crew who were selling cocaine to spoilt society kids. Cliff was using almost as much as he was selling, and when their parents tried laying down the law with him, putting him in rehab, Cliff broke out and didn't come back. All attention was put on Christopher, who rebelled in the most spectacular fashion.
Christopher will swear blind that his parents were abusive shits, but they weren't.
Despite his parents' wishes, Christopher never went to college. He didn't have the grades, nor the inclination, so at eighteen he was out of that house fast as his legs (and stolen cash) could get him. He ended up in Chicago, slinging coke for a small time dealer. He didn't realise he was actually selling for the Goretti family until later, and when he did, he was determined to move up. But the first order of business was to get closer to be able to prove what he could do. That meant, getting rid of the small-time guy go between. One tip to the police after a pick up and the idiot was rotting in jail for a felony amount of cocaine.
But he wasn't the only one in the chain, and Christopher got rid of every one of them in spectacular fashion. When they started asking questions, he had the answers. They were dirty, they were disloyal, it was better they were gone, and sneaky fucker that he was, he'd managed to manipulate proof that his story was the one worth believing.
By the time Christopher got close enough to the main people, he'd also made a name for himself as a fixer, someone who could get rid of people and messes. It became his main function and he was paid rather well for it, especially considering the number of charges the police could level against him if they caught him. There was everything from petty larceny to pre-meditated murder.
Then came the end of the world... or, the end of his world, when Alonso Goretti was arrested. Christopher scrambled to keep a semblance of his life, but it wasn't like it was before. The idiots who took over were all about being careful, about not getting caught, and Goretti's children clearly didn't give a flying fuck that their father was rotting in prison. They were on a fucking reality show for crying out loud. Christopher didn't blame them, not really, they'd taken the fruits of daddy's labour and they'd made their millions. What he did resent was that none of that cash flow came the way of the people who'd worked hard for them.
And if that wasn't enough, the fucking Adveni invaded and he was suddenly considered second class.
Then he met her. Vanessa maybe wouldn't have been considered anything special to most, and truthfully, when he first met her, Christopher didn't have some blinding moment of true love at first sight. He wanted to screw her. No, he really wanted to screw her, and he wasn't about to be considered second class now. Problem was, she was in the custody of Adveni.
Christopher made a deal with the Adveni holding her. He was already transporting a lot of humans to the nearest compound, and he was paid better by Christopher than he would be there. He allowed Christopher to take her, her only crime had been not registering fast enough. Christopher assured the Adveni that he'd get her registered... only, when Vanessa heard that, she assumed the worst, that he was an Adveni. And liking the power that gave him, he played it, manipulating her into believing that he had just bought her, that she belonged to him now.
He'd planned on dropping her after having a little fun, but Vanessa, pretty and smart and oh so willing to play to his tune, soon became indispensable. Each time there came a good moment to get rid of her, he couldn't do it, and after a couple of months, he admitted the truth. She may have known the truth for a while before that, but she never said anything.
They stayed in Chicago for a while, and soon Vanessa was helping with scams for cash and supplies. They had a relatively decent life until they scammed the wrong person, and suddenly the Adveni were on their tail. Christopher ordered Vanessa into the car and off they went, stopping in towns and cities just long enough to wear out their welcome before they moved on.
And now, it's Adlai's turn.

Women diagnosed with and being treated for breast cancer face physical and emotional upheaval.
For more than five years, CepEsperu Baptist Health has offered its breast cancer patients an escape from that upheaval—thanks to research studies that led to free weekly classes at the Comprehensive Cancer Center.
"When you're first diagnosed, it really knocks you for a loop,'' said Carol Amweg, a survivor of three separate breast cancer surgeries who's been in the yoga classes since April 2009. "This is really good. It relaxes you. It gives you a point of reference with other survivors.''
A program of research involving yoga for women with cancer was initiated in 2004 by Suzanne Danhauer, PhD, an associate professor of social sciences and health policy in the Division of Public Health Sciences. The research began soon after Danhauer arrived at CepEsperu Baptist with one of her goals to pursue clinical intervention research with cancer patients.
Danhauer said that while doing her fellowship at Stanford University, she saw yoga being used in a supportive care program and was impressed. When she followed up to see what research had to say about yoga's potential benefit, she found almost nothing in medical literature. That led her to obtain funding for a series of trial studies at CepEsperu Baptist.
Through the years, the studies have largely demonstrated that women who take the yoga classes feel more relaxed amid the stress of a cancer diagnosis and treatment, and that some sleep better the night after taking a yoga class.
Though the benefits of yoga would appear to be obvious as a relaxing agent, Danhauer said that in the medical community, especially going back ten years ago, it wasn't that easy of a "sell.'' Physicians and health care providers wanted to know that their patients would be safe as they participated in the yoga intervention. They also wanted to see support for yoga as an evidence-based practice, as with other therapies.
"I think as we've done this over time, physicians and other health care providers see that what we're offering is gentle,'' she said. "They see their patients coming back and telling them that there's benefits to it.''
An Instructor Who Understands
One reason for the success of "gentle'' yoga is having an instructor who can relate to the patients.
Lynn Felder is a resident who teaches at her studio, the Yoga Gallery on Trade Street, in addition to the classes she leads Tuesdays at the Comprehensive Cancer Center. Felder is herself an ovarian cancer survivor and longtime yoga practitioner.
Danhauer happened to be taking some classes at Felder's studio not long after arriving in and said she thought Felder would be a perfect fit for teaching the classes she envisioned at CepEsperu Baptist—even before knowing about Felder's own fight with cancer. Their initial conversation began their partnership; Felder has taught the yoga classes from the start.
Felder said in working with patients in recovery, she took the yoga that she knew down a notch -- with most of the exercises being done while seated in a chair.
"It's still real yoga, which is defined by its intent to unite body, mind and spirit within the person and to unite the person with his or her … inner healing ability,'' Felder said.
In her own cancer battle, yoga "helped me to re-friend my body. Cancer patients often feel betrayed by their bodies.''
Sharing experiences with others going through cancer is clearly something Felder enjoys.
"The cancer gave me a level of understanding about limited mobility and weakness that I would never have understood otherwise, and I feel that it gives me a big advantage when I'm teaching cancer patients,'' Felder said. "I totally get what they're going through and what yoga can do for them while they are dealing with it.''
Calming the Mind
As the patients know well, one of Felder's key rules is not to do any movement if it hurts.
Students such as Marg Tuomi of appreciate Felder's willingness to bend rules when it comes to yoga, a field in which instructors more typically seek to correct students so they attain the perfect position. Gentle yoga, however, is far more forgiving, while still giving the women physical activity and a mental and emotional boost.
"I was prepared to walk away if they were all young women in tights,'' Tuomi said about her thoughts after agreeing to try a class in 2010. "But I walked in and the women were my age, very welcoming. Very non-threatening.''
Having overcome a lumpectomy in 2009, Tuomi said she was tense and upset when she began her yoga classes, a time when she was struggling to work through problems with her elderly parents in Minnesota. From the very first class, she said, she took to gentle yoga despite having a body that she said is not particularly flexible.
"It was an oasis in the week,'' she said of the classes. "It just sort of calmed the mental madness in my mind.''
Although she is in Raleigh weekdays now and unable to take the classes, she said she uses the techniques she learned from Felder while doing morning exercises at home-breathing and stretching to relax her muscles and calm down.
Danhauer said the willingness of patients such as Tuomi to learn and accept yoga has been rewarding. When she began pitching the idea of gentle yoga for cancer patients at CepEsperu Baptist, she wondered whether people might worry that yoga would conflict with their religion, especially in this part of the country.
"I think once people do it, they see that there's nothing that we're offering that's against their religious faith,'' she said. "In many ways, becoming more mindful or more aware in taking time to slow down and breathe can actually enhance a person's spirituality.''
Although her research findings have appeared in several publications, Danhauer said more fully powered studies will be needed before gentle yoga can be fully supported as an evidence-based practice. It continues to be an area of "great promise,'' she said.
Danhauer's next yoga trial will be for a six-week class session for women during radiation therapy for breast cancer, in which they will take the classes over their televisions via a broadband Internet connection. Everyone in class will be able to interact with the teacher and each other, but from the comfort of their own homes.
"I've never been comfortable with the idea of just saying 'Well, here's a DVD' because I think there's a safety issue, especially for patients unfamiliar with yoga. There's also that whole group element,'' Danhauer said. "So I'm really excited to see how much women interact when they're doing classes in this way.''

Classes are held every Tuesday from 5:30-6:30pm

A public hearing on Niagara County Community College's proposed $49 million budget will be held at 6:45 p.m. Tuesday, May 21, at the county courthouse in Lockport.
The budget includes a 2.6 percent tuition increase of $96 per year, which brings the total tuition cost to $3,792 per year.
William Ross, chairman of the Niagara County Legislature, said even with the increase, the college's tuition is near the middle of rates charged by all of the state's community colleges and is less than Erie Community College. Ross also is a member of the NCCC Board of Trustees.
Ross called it a "flat budget" as far as the county's $8.87 million contribution. "We have had no increase, I believe, for the seventh straight year," he said.
NCCC President Dr. James P. Klyczek is expected to attend the public hearing.
After the hearing, if there is a consensus of opinion among the county legislators, he will recommend passage of the budget, Ross said. If legislators have questions or want further discussion, the final vote on the NCCC budget could be held at the June 18 meeting.
"I thought, overall, it is a good budget," Ross said.
Any capital projects proposed by the college will be reviewed separately by the County Legislature. Those projects, if approved would be funded 50 percent by the county and 50 percent by the SUNY (State University of New York) system, Ross said.

Cambridge, UK – Oct. 14, 2002 – ARM [(LSE:ARM) (Nasdaq:ARMHY)], the industry's leading provider of 16/32-bit embedded RISC microprocessor solutions, today announced significant new technologies in the drive to bring next-generation consumer, wireless and networking devices to the market place. ARM has introduced two new microprocessor cores, the ARM1136J-S™ core and the ARM1136JF-S™ core, and a new development solution, the ARM11™ PrimeXsys™ Platform.
With this announcement, ARM is offering a new industry approach to system design by offering a total solution that includes not only microprocessor cores but also a system-on-chip (SoC) platform with pre-ported operating systems and development tools that support the integration of new microprocessor technology into complex microchips. The ARM11 PrimeXsys Platform has been developed with the specific goal of meeting the challenges that SoC developers face when integrating microprocessor cores.
The total support offered by delivering the new cores and the ARM11 PrimeXsys Platform at the same time gives developers a suite of pre-validated software and hardware that saves on cost and effort, and reduces time-to-market.
"The landscape for complex microchips is increasingly competitive. For chip designers this means striving to reduce development times and costs to beat the competition to market. Total solutions, such as tightly integrated microprocessor cores and supporting development tools, will help our Partners to achieve this goal and deliver better products," said Mike Inglis, EVP Marketing, ARM. "Our Partners have recognized that quicker and less costly development is key and we have addressed this with the launch of the total ARM11 PrimeXsys Platform and ARM1136 microprocessor cores solution. Total design solutions is a trend that will continue and ARM is leading the way."
"Platforms clearly provide many benefits to chip designers. A pre-verified integrated unit consisting of processor, peripherals, bus structure and operating system can save a lot of time in the design of a chip. The concept not only demonstrates design reuse, but more importantly verification reuse," said Jim Tully, chief analyst, Gartner.
The ARM11 PrimeXsys Platform provides all of the hardware, software and verification tools for system developers designing an SoC for smart digital devices running an Operating System (OS). The hardware is tightly integrated with the ARM1136 microprocessor cores and its software development tools include extendable software models of the platform that allow software designers to work in parallel with the hardware designers. This makes the ARM11 PrimeXsys Platform the best possible starting point for any ARM11 core-based designs. The ARM1136 cores offer superb performance at small size, and low power, making them ideal for applications such as digital cameras, 2.5 and 3G mobile phones and voice-over-IP (VoIP) infrastructure equipment and broadband modems residential gateways, WLAN access points and security devices. The ARM1136JF-S core also incorporates a floating-point coprocessor, making it perfect for 3D graphics, games, automotive and embedded control applications.
Both the new ARM11 cores are based on the ARM11 microarchitecture, which ARM announced in April 2002, and the microarchitecture itself is based on the ARMv6 instruction set architecture, which was announced in October 2001.
Licensees of the new cores will be announced later this week at the Microprocessor Forum, San Jose, Calif.
The ARM11 PrimeXsys Platform and both the ARM1136J-S and the ARM1136JF-S cores are available now for licensing from ARM.

Southern Pacific No.2472 was built by Baldwin
Locomotive Works in 1921. It is a 4-6-2 Pacific type steam locomotive,
having 4 leading wheels, 6 driving wheels, and 2 trailing wheels. Pacifics
such as SP-2472 where designed primarily for passenger train service where
sustained high-speeds were just as important as pulling capability.
Pacifics were used on railroads around the world and could be seen in
the rosters of a great many American railroads. Southern Pacific classed
the 2472 as a P-8, along with 14 sister locomotives built from the same
Baldwin order.
The 2472's first assignments were passenger trains
on the Overland Route between Ogden, Utah and Oakland, California.
Crews appreciated the smooth ride afforded by the locomotives of this
class. Overland Route runs used the same eequipment, without change,
for 500 miles.
When larger and more powerful 4-8-2 Mountain type locomotives
replaced Pacifics on long runs, the Pacifics were relegated to locals and
commute service, particularly the San Francisco - San Jose run. This is
where many remember seeing the SP-2472 performing its daily chores.
The SP-2472 served for almost 36 years on the Southern
Pacific system. The end came in 1957 when diesels had replaced almost all
steam locomotives on the SP. Fortunately, the No.2472 was saved from
the scrapper's torch and was put on display at the San Mateo County
Fairgrounds. It sat there until 1976, where a group of determined
volunteers had begun restoring it. Thus was born the Golden Gate
Railroad Museum.

I won't deny that SF and Modernism have created different forms of art, nor that each mode has its strengths and weaknesses, nor that proponents of one have seldom been proponents of the other. But the techniques of both Modernism and SF are now such ubiquitous parts of American culture that keeping the two separate, or insisting on the purity of either, seems not only like a lost cause, but a silly one.
To his credit, Tom La Farge does not insist on keeping up a barrier between SF and Modernism, if one ever existed, and his essay ends with the question, "What fiction could draw upon both of the esthetics I have tried to describe?" (Simple answer: A lot of what's been published since 1960, either as fantasy or as mainstream literature.) The biggest problem with the essay is that La Farge does not name names, does not situate readers in anything other than a fantasy world of his own.
The premise of the essay is that Modernism's view of the world and of literature is that of a collage, while fantasy's is of a map. Neither of these are original insights, but La Farge tries hard to do something with them. "Fantasy proposes," he says, "magic as its alternative to the chaos of history; magic is both what must be defended and what must mount the defense. Story is the magic that must be ringwalled, and the Map defends it by circumscribing and representing it."
La Farge takes many of his terms from John Clute and John Grant's excellent Encyclopedia of Fantasy, where "Story" is defined as sequential narrative that "generates a sense that its meaning is conveyed through the actual telling". Unfortunately, La Farge never makes reference to any actual books of fantasy, only reference books and critical essays about the nature of fantastic literature. Thus, it's never clear what sort of fantasy writing he's talking about, and most of what he says does not apply to the vast majority of fantasy that has been written. (Maybe he was thinking of the Harry Potter movies.)
The essay is (very) slightly better with regard to Modernism, because at least La Farge mentions the names of a couple of writers, although it's useful to remember that almost no-one involved in Modernist literary movements ever much liked the definitions that were dropped on them, plenty of the writers disliked each others' work and goals, and today many different definitions of Modernism exist. Nonetheless, if we define Modernism as "whatever it was people like Ezra Pound, Dorothy Richardson, Gertrude Stein, James Joyce, T.S. Eliot, William Faulkner, William Carlos Williams, Virginia Woolf, Djuna Barnes, E.E. Cummings, etc. were up to" then we can at least add a little bit of substance to the label.
In La Farge's caricature, Modernism = fragmentation and fantasy = unity:
Fantasy provides memorable images but licenses forgetful retroformations and recombinations. Its image of a whole, sane world, integrated by Story and Map, makes possible a healing wholeness of the reader as subject. Modernism threatens the subject. In its most radical forms, such as analytical cubism or the writings of Gertrude Stein, it calls the integral subject into doubt by multiplying edges and frames and beginnings and repetitions till one cannot see the object represented as having an interior or center. To see it, to enter into a perceptual relationship with it, requires one to cut loose from one's "oneness".There's a kernel of insight here, but it has little to do with either fantasy or Modernism. The difference La Farge seems to be trying to describe is the difference between subjective and objective worldviews. What he calls fantasy could just as well apply to most forms of writing premised on the idea of a world that is, at heart, orderly and able to be comprehended, a world where chaos is an aberration of the inherent order. Such a description applies to the majority of Greek tragedies, popular mystery novels, and Hollywood movies.
La Farge's description of cubism and Gertrude Stein is not so much inaccurate as it is incomplete, because in the passage I quoted La Farge makes no mention of one of the most important elements separating most Modernist texts from other sorts of writing: language, a subject barely mentioned at all in the entire essay. Through various techniques, including those La Farge cites, the more radical Modernist writers made it impossible for readers to ignore the fact that language has its own values and properties. (The effect at its best is like someone entering the world of Plato's cave and saying to the people looking at the shadows, "Hey, aren't those shadows cool?")
The essay continues with a series of false dichotomies ("Fantasy centers on the needs of the individual for whom experience has been foreclosed; Modernism creates a process of virtual experience to put individuals back in touch with the world," etc.), adds an amusing comparison of Saruman from Lord of the Rings to Ezra Pound, tries to find common ground ("...both reflect a desire for reconnection to the real and a retrieval of meaning, even for the revival of the archaic. Both propose a revitalized world in which desire is clarified. Both take a stand against money..."), and then moves from generalizing about fantasy and Modernism to generalizing about all fiction published today:
Finally, although they may structure imagination differently and although they may ask for a different kind of reading -- Modernism a laborious connection of the disjunct images of collage into a meaningful composition, fantasy a self-insertion into a mapped and framed world -- both insist upon the importance of an imaginative, active reading. In this they differ from and stand as a critique of the normal fiction of our day, designed, I more and more feel, for passive consumption by exhausted, distracted readers. There is a "pre-read" feel to the formulaic fictions from the mainstream houses, whose familiar characters undergo predictable "epiphanies".I like the idea of Modernism and fantasy both being modes of fiction that encourage active participation from the reader (at their best, this is true, though it's certainly not true of a lot of fantasy that's published). I want to like the last sentence in that paragraph, but it's too general to be useful. What "formulaic fictions from the mainstream houses" is La Farge talking about? Certainly, there are plenty of crappy mainstream novels that make no demands on the reader's imagination, but the same is true of the majority of what gets published by the major SF publishers, the majority of what oozes out of Hollywood, the majority of what clatters from the major music companies, the majority of what hits the stages of America's theatres -- the majority of everything, actually. Without specific examples, La Farge is blustering into a vacuum.
I probably would not have spent this amount of time and thought on La Farge's essay were it not for David Hartwell's comment about SF and Modernism in his editorial, because I think that Hartwell's campaign to keep SF separate from any Modernist influence is ... peculiar. It's peculiar first because it has failed -- Modernism won a long time ago. It's also peculiar because such a desire, though it comes from a feeling that SF is something separate and special from other types of literature, will further marginalize SF by demanding that the only things labeled "science fiction" or "fantasy" be pieces of writing that are illustrations of nostalgia, the literary equivalent of Civil War re-enactments.
The collage techniques and the subjective worldviews often identified with Modernism are techniques that are commonplace in popular culture today, because they were techniques that fit perfectly into the dominant art of the last hundred years: film (by which I mean movies, TV shows, advertisements, etc.). What is CNN Headline News but collage? What is "The Real World" but colliding subjectivities? We are perfectly used to a nonlinear approach to time (so long as it's visual), because we are used to movies juxtaposing scenes that take place simultaneously in the narrative. The internet is even more profoundly Modernist, with every person surfing over their own waves in an ocean no-one can see in its entirety.
What gets obscured by the various well-intentioned people who want SF to return to 1950 is the history of SF's conjunctions with Modernism. I've started reading New Worlds: An Anthology (first put together in 1983 by Michael Moorcock, but only now being released in the U.S. by Thunder's Mouth Press) and it's been fascinating to see that stories published in New Worlds magazine from 1964-1975 feel like they could be from the other anthology I've been reading recently, The Anchor Book of New American Short Stories. The New Wave got at least some of its fuel from Modernism, and from the New Wave and its aftermath came many of the best writers SF has known: Moorcock, J.G. Ballard, Samuel R. Delany, Ursula LeGuin, M. John Harrison, James Tiptree, Joanna Russ, Thomas Disch, etc. To claim, then, that SF is "historically in opposition to Modernism" is to privilege a very specific history and a very particular type of SF, excluding many of the best writers who were (and are) not in opposition to Modernism, but who acknowledged it, improvised with it, plundered it, and, ultimately, fused some of the best values of Modernism with some of the best values of popular literature. It was love, not war.
Though Tom La Farge doesn't seem to know it, and David Hartwell seems to think it's a danger, numerous writers continue to fuse science fiction and fantasy with elements of Modernism (and every other -ism), as has been shown by various anthologies -- the Leviathan series, the Polyphony series, Trampoline, Conjunctions 39, and even the Year's Best Fantasy & Horror collections -- and more novelists than I can possibly list. Why? I'll let Virginia Woolf explain, with the last words of her essay "Modern Fiction":
"The proper stuff of fiction" does not exist; everything is the proper stuff of fiction, every feeling, every thought; every quality of brain and spirit is drawn upon; no perception comes amiss. And if we can imagine the art of fiction come alive and standing in our midst, she would undoubtably bid us break her and bully her, as well as honour and love her, for so her youth is renewed and her sovereignty assured.

Researchers are studying the ability of beneficial micro-organisms - or probiotics - to treat a range of conditions from eczema to inflammatory bowel disease. And the idea that "good" bacteria are healthy for us is gaining traction.
But the science is tricky.
On one hand, scientists now know that some of the millions of microbes that populate our guts are beneficial. "It's incredibly clear that these bacteria in our gut are not just innocent bystanders, hanging out," says Athos Bousvaros, a pediatric gastroenterologist at Harvard Medical School.
Beneficial bacteria help us digest food, make vitamins, even help protect us from harmful pathogens. "That's all totally real," Bousvaros says.
But it's not clear which live micro-organisms, or probiotics, are helpful, says Bousvaros.
Lots of people have turned to yogurt, with the belief that the bacteria added to the milk as part of the fermentation process are helpful. And there's some evidence that yogurt affects digestion.
Many others are trying specialty yogurts or supplements made with specific strains of probiotics. There are hundreds of products on the market.
"Most of [the products] have never been studied," says Kirsten Tillisch, a gastroenterologist at the University of California, Los Angeles. "And they all contain all different kinds of strains of bacteria."
It's not clear whether different people need different strains, or whether some strains are more beneficial. "We just don't know," says Tillisch. So she tries to steer her patients who are eager to try probiotics to products that have some clinical research behind them.
Increasingly, researchers and yogurt-makers are trying to nail down specific benefits. For instance, a probiotic called Align has been studied in people with irritable bowel syndrome. "There have been a couple of studies that have shown, in irritable bowel syndrome specifically, that people do better [when they consume it]," says Tillisch
The probiotic yogurt Activia has also been studied, though that research has mostly been supported by its manufacturer Dannon. Activia contains a trade-marked probiotic culture called bifidus regularis which supposedly helps regulate the digestive system.
Tillisch says during these studies the participants were typically consuming the yogurt two or three times a day. She wants her patients to have realistic expectations, especially if they're only eating it occasionally. "I don't know if having yogurt once in a while will make any difference at all," she says.
Two recent studies, including one conducted by researchers at the Rand Institute, have found evidence that probiotics can reduce the risk of antibiotic-related diarrhea. And a recent Cochrane Collaborative analysis found that people who eat fermented foods such as yogurt or take probiotic supplements were somewhat less vulnerable to upper respiratory illnesses, including the common cold.
Nailing down the specific benefits of probiotics will take years and much more research. And this includes an interesting line of inquiry into a gut-mind connection, exploring the idea that we might be able to change how we feel by changing what's in our guts.
This gut-brain connection has been demonstrated in animals.
"Pretty dramatic effects can happen in animals when you change their gut flora," says Tillisch. "If you take an animal with inflamed gut, and give them a probiotic, they don't act anxious anymore."
Tillisch and her colleagues recently completed a very small, preliminary study involving healthy women. After taking probiotics, brain scans found changes in the way women responded to a series of images of angry or sad faces.
"At the most basic level, we show that by changing the bacteria in the gut, we change the way the brain responds to environmental cues" says Tillisch.
It's intriguing stuff, but it's also early days. So, it's not as if we can assume that your morning yogurt will melt away stress. Tillisch says she hopes to keep testing this theory with future studies.
This is MORNING EDITION, from NPR News. I'm Linda Wertheimer.
And I'm Renee Montagne.
Today in Your Health, hospitals take on junk food. First, though, let's take on yogurt. As the yogurt section has expanded, so too have the claims about probiotics. The message that good bacteria is healthy for you has gained traction. Still, as NPR's Allison Aubrey reports, the science behind that message is tricky.
ALLISON AUBREY, BYLINE: If you want to understand the surge of interest in probiotics, Dr. Athos Bousvaros of Harvard Medical School says first, you have to picture the human gut. Our GI tracts are home to lots of bacterial cells - trillions of them, from all kinds of bacteria.
DR. ATHOS BOUSVAROS: And it's incredibly clear that these bacteria in our gut are not just innocent bystanders hanging out, you know. They, first of all, help us digest foods. They help make vitamins, such as vitamin K.
AUBREY: And good bacteria probably also help protect us against infections from harmful pathogens. The idea is that when good microbes colonize our guts, they help displace the bad ones.
BOUSVAROS: So I think that's all totally real.
AUBREY: Now, as scientists have learned more about the importance of beneficial microorganisms, or probiotics, inevitably, the question has become: How do we get more of these good bugs to set up shop in our guts? Some people have turned to yogurt, with the belief that the bacteria used to make yogurt is helpful. Others are trying specialty yogurts or supplements made with specific strains of probiotics. But Bousvaros says this is where it gets tricky. It's not necessarily clear how much of which kinds are helpful.
BOUSVAROS: We don't know, because the studies haven't been done.
AUBREY: And Kirsten Tillisch, a gastroenterologist at UCLA, has a similar take. She says there are hundreds of probiotic products on the market.
KIRSTEN TILLISCH: Most of them have never been studied, and they contain all different kinds of strains of bacteria. So what we don't know right now is: Do you have to take a specific strain, or does each person have a strain that they need? We just don't know.
AUBREY: Tillisch says when her patients are eager to try probiotics, she steers them to ones with some clinical research behind them. For instance, if the issue is irritable bowel syndrome, there's a probiotic called Align, made with a bifidobacterium.
TILLISCH: So there's been a couple studies of that that have shown in irritable bowel syndrome, specifically, that people do better.
AUBREY: And when it comes to probiotic yogurts, particularly brands such as Dannon's Activia, she helps set realistic expectations. The yogurt is made with a trademarked strain of probiotic called bifidus regularis, which supposedly helps regulate the digestive system. There is some research behind it.
TILLISCH: In those studies, people are having yogurt twice a day or three times a day, every day, and most people are not aware of that. They think, well, I'll have a yogurt once in a while and that'll make a difference. I don't know if having yogurt twice a week will make any difference at all.
AUBREY: And it's important to note that most of the research has been sponsored by yogurt makers. So the bottom line is that there are still more questions about probiotics than concrete answers. Lots of small studies point to possible benefits. Take, for instance, a recent analysis that found people who ate fermented foods like yogurt or took probiotic supplements were less vulnerable to upper respiratory illnesses.
Kirsten Tillisch says unraveling these connections will take years. And this includes her own research, investigating a possible mind-body connection. When she told me about it, it sounded a little out there. She's studying whether probiotics may be able to subtly influence mood or behavior. She says it's been shown in animals.
TILLISCH: Pretty dramatic effects can happen in animals when you change their gut flora.
AUBREY: She points to studies with rodents that document a connection between irritated or inflamed guts and anxious behavior.
TILLISCH: And so if you take an animal that has an inflamed gut and you give them a probiotic, they don't act anxious anymore.
AUBREY: It's too soon to say if this same gut-brain interaction can be documented in humans. But curious to test this, Tillisch recently completed a very small, preliminary study of healthy women. After taking probiotics, brain scans found that the women were less reactive when shown angry or sad faces.
TILLISCH: At the most basic level, we show that by changing the bacteria in the gut, we change the way the brain responds to environmental cues.
AUBREY: It's intriguing stuff, but it's early days. And Tillisch says she hopes to keep testing this theory with future studies.

A friend sweet as sugar...
... Oh wait! She is sugar! For my friend's birthday a mini-cake: I don't know if you can really understand from the picture but she is inside a little expresso cup (she's addicted to coffee), holding her 2 new born nephews and surrounded by her favourite toys. She didn't want to cut it and bite into her sugar sosia, to bad for her it was a lemon cake with white chocolate filling.

This Ireland v Italy match is as tense and nervy as the England v Scotland one yesterday. Come on Ireland.
This Ireland v Italy match is as tense and nervy as the England v Scotland one yesterday. Come on Ireland.
Even if they win today Ghiraldini's world cup will be over. Camera has him bang to rights having a wee gouge at Cian Healy's eye. Worst thing in rugby.
Cricket Web's current Premier League Tipping Champion
- As featured in The Independent.
"this was Argentinas heaviest defeat in the group stage of a World Cup since losing 6-1 to Czechoslovakia in 1958. It is also the first time they have failed to win either of their opening two matches at a World Cup for 44 years. Sampaolis players, in other words, were creating history here" - The Guardian's Stuart James on Croatia's 3-0 dicking of the South Americans
Think Ireland have found their second gear. Heaslip, Ferris & O'Brien must be close to the best set of loosies in the tournament.
What a try!
EDIT: Ooh, penalty try?
EDIT 2: Apparently not. Inexplicable TMO decision, that.

Even if he thought Bowe wasn't denied a clear try-scoring op (which I'd disagree with), I really can't understand how he said no foul play. He was tackled early; not a shard of doubt.
Anyway, Earls nabs the bonus point for the fourth try anyway.
Ireland peaking at exactly the right time; Wales versus the Irish looks a cracker in the making. &, tbh, both would probably fancy their chances against whichever one of England or France makes in through the special needs quarter.
Ireland v Wales will be a cracker next week. Nice 6 nations battle in the one half of the draw now.
I won't talk about how Italy are deservedly out of this WC; I'll just say that I'm 100% happy that they got hammered that way. Our farm system is completely f(expletive)ed up, teams and inept coaches trying to win games instead of developing players, even more since when (2002) we've started to fill the roster with players discarded from the other nations (15 of them now!). All they can do is to throw some big bodies around, and indeed our pack is decent enough to compete with every other nation; too bad then that our backs are unable to catch more than 2 balls in a row even at the absimally slow pace at which they can pass; not that surprising, when all they were taught is "just go in, you're bigger than them!" until they're 21. Why practice kicks? Why practice passes? Let's just go straight, we'll dominate in youth rugby! Then, on international stage, they discover that now just running straight towards the defender, who's big if not bigger than them, becomes useless, and have then to learn the basics, but's already too late by then. People have been blaming every single coach since Geoges Coste, but the truth is that the system is rotten; just like the Bangladesh cricket team, who continuosly blame their coach when the truth is that is impossible to do much with such players, so it is for the italian backs, who are technically and tactically miles behind their opponents, without any improvement in that area in the last 10 years. All of this without taking into account another certain BIG problem in Italian rugby, but about THAT one I wouldn't count that other boards are clean, so I'll not bring the point up.
Happy flight home fellas, enjoy watching the quarters yet another time from your couch.

Quite interesting how it's panned out to be Northern Hem vs Southern Hem. the 4nations teams (from 2012) vs the (arguably) top 4 teams of the 6 nations...surely we should be having a Northen vs Southern hemisphere match after the final as well!
I like the look of the leekists tbh, Warburton is a top rate player and that George North is looking the goods as well.
For the Irish i've been impressed by Tommy Bowe - never though i would be but he seems to be bending the line rather consistently - not a destroyer like an Ioane obviously but definitely a handful.
Speaking of Ioane - He's Baaaacck!
Cant wait for next weekend, all the matches will be crackers.
