Justin Bieber Do Exercises

Justin knows girls like toned men and he wants that look. He’s going to be putting in the hours down the gym to achieve the perfect abs. By the end of the training he’ll look like a man rather than a scrawny teenager.

Top Chef All-Stars Finale: Richard Blais wins the "Top Chef"

"Top Chef All-Stars Finale", the remaining two contestants prepared the best meal of their lives. The final challenge was to create the restaurant of their dreams with a four-course tasting menu.

Richard Blais and Mike Isabella got to be assisted by eliminated chefs in the kitchen. The former had Spike, Angelo and Antonia on his team while the latter got Tiffani, Jamie and Carla. Richard decided to call his restaurant Tongue in Cheek while Mike preferred to call his simply Izz.

Mike created a dish made from beets for his first course, and followed it up with steamed halibut with kumquat, pork shoulder with pepperoni sauce and a flan. Richard amused the judges with hamachi and sweetbreads, black cod and pork belly, beef short rib and foie gras ice cream.

When the judges deliberated, the first and second course went to Richard, while the third went to Mike. The dessert became the determining point but it was apparent that Richard would win because during the tasting, judge Art Smith said about Mike's flan, "I don't like the way it feels in my mouth."

As a winner, Richard earned $200,000 prize and the Top Chef title. "I didn't think I could do this, I willed this," he said after Padma Lakshmi's announcement. Meanwhile, Mike did not take the loss lightly, saying "To come in second is tough. I felt like I beat him. I just didn't get the prize."

Top Chef All-Stars Finale: Who will be crowned "Top Chef?"

Mike Isabella and Richard Blais headed into the Top Chef: All-Stars finale with grills blazing and blenders whirring, knowing that $200,000 and the title that had eluded them both in previous seasons was on the line.

Their mission if they chose to accept it: Create a four-course tasting menu for the restaurant of their dreams.

So, did Richard find sweet redemption with foie gras ice cream after coming up short in season four? Or did season-six also-ran Mike and his pepperoni sauce finally end up with a real reason to brag?

Who will be crowned "Top Chef?"

Padma and Tom tell Mike and Richard that they will be creating the restaurant of their dreams with a four-course tasting menu. Of course, the voted-off chefs are back as sous chefs (AKA I get to see Angelo)! The chefs have 30 minutes to cook an amuse-bouche for Richard and Mike to taste. Twist! They are blind-folded, so can't tell who made what! Mike admits if he had a choice he would take his friend Jen (no surprise) and no one in their right mind would choose Jamie. Or Marcel. Richard wants Dale, Angelo or Jen.

In the end, Mike picks Tiffani, Jamie (ahh!) and Carla while Richard picks Spike, Angelo and Antonia. Mike acts happy to work with them, but come on. Jamie? Really? Anyway, it seems like they both are very set on what they want and very driven. Mike's obviously going Italian and Richard is doing more of a surf and turf theme. They have five hours before they open! Everything seems to be going great, but I can't even tell what they're cooking because it's all so rushed! This should have been a two-hour finale if you ask me.

Anyway, the judges start filing into the restaurants. Richard's restaurant is called "Tongue & Cheek" while Mike's is called "Restaurant Iz." The first round of judges include Padma, Lidia Bastianich, Alfred Portale and Hurbert Keller. They go to Richard's place first. He starts off with an oyster amuse-bouche, which is well-received. I love Spike. He's creeping on the judges. First course is raw Hamachi, which is also liked by all. His second course is pork belly and black cod, which they love. The third course is a beef short rib. They don't love the creativity, but they love the execution. Richard is crazy and looking at the chefs' leftovers! Richard's last dish is his foie gratis ice cream. "It's a controversial dish," says Spike. Haha!

Tom, Gail, Curtis Stone and Art Smith hit up Mike's restaurant first. Mike's first course is a spiced beet salad and they love it. Uh oh. It takes a little long to get the second course out. He serves Halibut and Tom says it's the best-cooked fish he's had on the show! Wow. His third course is braised ribs, which he calls his "Tom dish" and he's right. They really like it. Mike's last dish, rosemary custard, was the only one they weren't thrilled about it. Still good though.

The other chefs are also dining. The judges then switch and go to the other restaurant. Richard is trying to change his last dish to make it better for the second round of judges. At this point, it's so close. Who knows what will happen?!? The second set of judges really love Mike's dishes. But wait, they love Richard's too! He fixed his dessert too. Yay! I can't stop using exclamation points. Hah. The one thing I will say is that this is the first time there were no sous chef issues. Everyone seemed to pull their weight -- even Jamie!

Capsule Endoscopy Offered by US Hospitals

A gastroenterologist and endoscopist at Davis Memorial Hospital in Elkins, W.Va., is now offering capsule endoscopy for the detection and diagnosis of small intestinal disorders, including small bowel tumors and Crohn's Disease, according to a WBOY news report.

Nitesh Ratnakar, MD, said capsule endoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that does not require sedation or any recovery time. The pill, which is approximately the size of a large vitamin, passes through the body between 24-48 hours. The images from the pill are captured and delivered wirelessly to a data recorder patients wear outside their clothing, according to the news report.

A less invasive procedure that means no sedative or recovery time is now available at Davis Memorial Hospital.

With this technology, patients swallow a pill about the size of a large vitamin and they continue their day in a normal manner.

Dr. Nitesh Ratnakar is a gastroenterologist and endoscopist at Davis Memorial Hospital in Elkins. His office recently began using the Pillcam for detection of small intestinal disorders.

"Its non invasive, out patient, and it gives us a lot of information about the diseases of the small bowel," said Ratnakar.

The mini camera capsule contains state of the art technology. Before this technology, doctors had to conduct an X-Ray test. Now patients swallow the camera, and for the next eight hours up to 50,000 pictures are taken of the patients small intestines.

The photos are wirelessly transmitted to a data recorder attached to a belt patients wear on the outside of their clothing.

The technology is used to help diagnose small bowel disorders or conditions such as Crohn's Disease, causes of anemia, and small bowel tumors. Ratnakar calls this procedure helpful because images of the small bowel are difficult to capture.

"This is a leap from that point where we are directly able to visualize the inside lining of the bowel and its quite exciting technology, It's a stepping stone to future robotic medicine," said Ratnakar.

About a dozen procedures have been done so far, and patients are pleased with it.

"Patients love it. They like the convenience, they come to my office in the morning and swallow the capsule and we give them instructions. They go about their daily manner they come back in the evening return our receiver, and we call them a few days later with results, so it's been well accepted," said Ratnakar.

Marie Osmond Talks About Meeting Elizabeth Taylor: "Those eyes"

Marie Osmond is one of the many stars in Hollywood who is mourning the passing of legendary actress, Elizabeth Taylor last week. Elizabeth’s life ended at the age of 79, but her legacy will live on forever.

Marie Osmond spoke out about the first time she ever met Elizabeth Taylor after she and her brother Donny Osmond did their 500th show at the Flamingo in Las Vegas the other night. She met Elizabeth Taylor at the White House during Ronald Reagan’s presidency.

Of the meeting, Marie said, “Those eyes…They were so beautiful just as everyone says.”

Osmond also went on to praise Elizabeth Taylor’s humanitarian efforts saying, “She showed so much courage in her fight against AIDS. She was one of the first celebrities to take up that cause, and I respect her so much for that.”

Marie Osmond admired Elizabeth Taylor so much, that she even used violet colored eyes for her doll collection.

Marie Osmond recalled to the Las Vegas Sun about the time she met Elizabeth Taylor.

The setting was an event at the White House, while Ronald Reagan was president. Taylor (who died Wednesday at the age of 79) was there with her husband at the time, then-Sen. John Warner, R-Virginia.

Osmond, talking after she and her brother Donny finished their 500th show at the Flamingo in Las Vegas, remembered her face-to-face meeting with the legendary film beauty.

"Those eyes," Osmond said. "They were so beautiful, just as everyone says.”

Taylor's trademark violet eyes inspired Osmond to create eyes that color for her doll collection.

Osmond called Taylor "an inspiration. She showed so much courage in her fight against AIDS. She was one of the first celebrities to take up that cause, and I respect her so much for that.”

Gluten Free Diet: another celebs diet method

If you have went to the store lately I am sure you have seen the plethora of products that can be eaten on the gluten free diet because they are now made without gluten. Many celebs are picking up this diet and running with it as well as many women and men around the world that are looking to drop a few pounds.

When people get on the gluten free diet many times they are going to find that they lose weight and they think it is because they have cut gluten out of their diet. Most times this simply is not true. Gluten is a protein that you will find in product that contain wheat, barley and rye. The reason that you lose weight when getting on the gluten free diet is because you cut out many products that are starchy products that are difficult for your body to digest.

You can lose weight when going on this diet but you can just as easily lose weight by cutting out the foods that are difficult to digest for your body. Your body will be able to tell you what it does not like and what is difficult for it to digest. Just limit those things that are processed and you will see results. If you must go along with the gluten free diet craze it won’t hurt you but it is not the magic bullet.

The gluten free diet consists of eliminating foods that contain gluten, which is a protein found mainly in wheat products. It is hard to digest for many people, and even more detrimental to those who suffer from celiac disease.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck

There are quite a few celebs who stick to a gluten free regime, most notably Elisabeth Hasselbeck, who wrote a book called “The G-Free Diet.” She chose to share her story after battling health problems, which were ultimately diagnosed as celiac disease.

Other stars who are fans of the gluten free diet include Zooey Deschanel and Gwyneth Paltrow. Jenny McCarthy also endorses the diet, and insists it helped her son’s autism.

Fukushima Radioactive Particles Detected in UK

Radioactive fallout from the stricken Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan has been found in the UK.

Two British laboratories picked up traces of radioactive iodine today — nearly 6,000 MILES from the damaged plant, which has been in meltdown since the devastating earthquake and tsunami on March 11.

A spokesman for the Health Protection Agency said iodine has now been discovered at labs in Oxfordshire and Glasgow.

Dr Michael Clark said: "Very low levels of radioactivity, traceable to Fukushima, have been detected at monitoring stations in the UK including Chilton, in Oxfordshire, and Glasgow, in Scotland.

"These traces have been found in Europe - Switzerland, Germany and Iceland - and in the USA.

"They're trace levels but of course with radioactivity we can measure very low amounts."

The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (Sepa) also confirmed the find, but stressed it wasn't a danger to the public.

Dr James Gemmill, Sepa's radioactive substances manager, said: "The concentration of iodine detected is extremely low and is not of concern for the public or the environment.

"The fact that such a low concentration of this radionuclide was detected demonstrates how effective the surveillance programme for radioactive substances is in the UK."

There was more bad news from the Fukushima plant today, as scientists confirmed they had found Plutonium in nearby soil.

But Japan's Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA) insisted the amounts of the cancer-causing chemical element were not a danger to the public.

NISA's deputy director-general Hidehiko Nishiyama said: "It was the same level as normally found in the atmosphere as radioactive fallout after an atmospheric nuclear test, but a test done far away that would not directly affect someone."

The Plutonium is thought to have come from some of the plant's fuel rods found in each of the troubled reactors.

Last week the plant's owners admitted that some of the rods had begun to melt after cooling systems were knocked out by the giant wave.

Nuclear plants use Plutonium-239, which has a chemical half-life of 24,000 years, meaning anything leaked from Fukushima today will still affect the area for thousands of years to come.

Workers at the plant, known as the Fukushima 50, are still battling to save the crippled site and avert a nuclear diaster.

Last week, two were taken to hospital after being exposed to high levels of radiation.

Locals living within 18 miles of the plant have been advised to leave the area entirely, or stay indoors as radiation continues to climb.

Quantcast

Meanwhile, Japan's Prime Minister Naoto Kan told his parliament that the country was grappling with its worst problems since the Second World War.

Mr Kan said: "This quake, tsunami and the nuclear accident are the biggest crises for Japan in decades."

He warned the nuclear disaster remained unpredictable, but added: "From now on, we will continue to handle it in a state of maximum alert."

Dixie Chicks: Natalie Maines Releases New Song "God Only Knows"

Dixie Chicks fans have waited nearly five years – since 2006's Grammy-winning album "Taking the Long Way" – to hear new recorded material from Natalie Maines. Now, she's singing a new tune. Actually, the song isn't so new: It's a cover of the Beach Boys's classic "God Only Knows" – recorded by Maines, 36, for the series finale of HBO's Big Love, set to air March 20.

The Dixie Chicks have been off the radar for a while, which is all the more reason to catch "Shut Up & Sing" (8 p.m. Saturday, Country Music Television), the documentary that trails the country darlings as they recover from the backlash that followed their onstage slam of President George W. Bush and their subsequent album. The criticism may have stung, but it did lead to an armful of Grammys and an instant country classic, "Not Ready to Make Nice."

The Dixie Chicks are an American alternative country band which has also successfully crossed over into other genres. The band is composed of founding members (and sisters) Martie Erwin Maguire and Emily Erwin Robison, and lead singer Natalie Maines. The band formed in 1989 in Dallas, Texas and was originally composed of four women performing bluegrass and country music, busking and touring the bluegrass festival circuits and small venues for six years without attracting a major label. After the departure of one bandmate, the replacement of their lead singer, and a slight change in their repertoire, the Dixie Chicks achieved country music and pop success, beginning in 1998 with hit songs including "Wide Open Spaces", "Cowboy Take Me Away", and "Long Time Gone". The women also became well-known for their independent spirit and controversial comments on subjects such as war and politics.

During a London concert ten days before the 2003 invasion of Iraq, lead vocalist Maines said, "we don't want this war, this violence, and we're ashamed that the President of the United States (George W. Bush) is from Texas" (the Dixie Chicks' home state). The statement offended many people, who thought it rude and unpatriotic, and the ensuing controversy cost the band half of their concert audience attendance in the United States and led to accusations of the three women being "un-American", as well as hate mail, a death threat, and the public destruction of their albums in protest.

As of 2009, they have won 13 Grammy Awards, with 5 of them earned in 2007 including the coveted Grammy Award for Album of the Year for Taking the Long Way. As of July 2010, with 30.5 million certified albums, and sales of 26,733,000 albums in the U.S., they have become the top selling all-female band in the U.S. during the Nielsen SoundScan era.

The Manchurian Candidate: Frank Sinatra vs Denzel Washington Version

The Manchurian Candidate (1962) is director-producer John Frankenheimer's prophetically tragic, chilling, brilliant, blackish (film-noirish) Cold War thriller about brain-washing, conspiracy, the dangers of international Communism, McCarthyism, assassination, and political intrigue. Laurence Harvey is brilliant as a brainwashed Korean war hero who has been programmed as a Soviet sleeper/mole agent to assassinate a Presidential candidate.

The 1962 film the Manchurian Candidate is a certified classic. The political thriller was so good that it earned the best tribute it could get. A remake. In 2004, Denzel Washington took on the role originally played by Frank Sintra.

There was of course some updating in the remake, some new tweets, and lots of color. But the original black and white, still holds it own. So which one is better and what has been said in comparing the two films?Most film fans who were familiar with the original political thriller tend to side with the 1962 version. But under the direction of Johnathan Demme with a cast that included along side Denzel the likes of Meryl Streep and Liev Schreilber, they do a fabulous job. It’s a strong piece of cinema that comes as a fresher, bright version of the dark and foreboding original.

The Manchurian Candidate (1959), by Richard Condon, is a political thriller novel about the son of a prominent US political family who has been brainwashed into being an unwitting assassin for the Communist Party.

RIP: Geraldine Anne Ferraro

Geraldine Anne Ferraro was born in Newburgh, New York on August 26, 1935. She was an American attorney, a Democratic Party politician and a member of the United States House of Representatives. She earned a place in history as the first woman vice-presidential candidate on a national party ticket.

Geraldine Anne Ferraro grew up in New York City and became a teacher and lawyer. She joined the Queens County District Attorney's Office in 1974, where she headed the new Special Victims Bureau that dealt with sex crimes, child abuse, and domestic violence. She was elected to Congress in 1978, where she rose rapidly in the party hierarchy while focusing on legislation to bring equity for women in the areas of wages, pensions, and retirement plans. In 1984, former Vice President and presidential candidate Walter Mondale selected Ferraro to be his running mate in the upcoming election. In doing so she became the only Italian American to be a major-party national nominee in addition to being the first woman. The positive polling the Mondale-Ferarro ticket received when she joined faded as questions about her and her husband's finances arose. In the general election, Mondale and Ferraro were defeated in a landslide by incumbent President Ronald Reagan and Vice President George H. W. Bush.

Ferraro ran campaigns for a seat in the United States Senate from New York in 1992 and 1998, both times emerging as the front-runner for her party's nomination but losing in primary elections both times. She served as a United States Ambassador to the United Nations Commission on Human Rights from 1993 until 1996, in the presidential administration of Bill Clinton. She also continued her career as a journalist, author, and businesswoman, and served in the 2008 presidential campaign of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. Ferraro died on March 26, 2011, after a 12-year battle with multiple myeloma.

Ferraro continued to battle multiple myeloma, but died from complications of it on March 26, 2011, at Massachusetts General Hospital. In addition to her husband and children, she was survived by eight grandchildren.

President Obama said upon her passing that "Geraldine will forever be remembered as a trailblazer who broke down barriers for women, and Americans of all backgrounds and walks of life," and said that his own two daughters would grow up in a more equal country because of what Ferraro had done. Mondale called her "a remarkable woman and a dear human being . 

She was a pioneer in our country for justice for women and a more open society. She broke a lot of molds and it's a better country for what she did." George H. W. Bush said, "Though we were one-time political opponents, I am happy to say Gerry and I became friends in time – a friendship marked by respect and affection. I admired Gerry in many ways, not the least of which was the dignified and principled manner she blazed new trails for women in politics." Palin paid tribute to her on Facebook, saying, "She broke one huge barrier and then went on to break many more. May her example of hard work and dedication to America continue to inspire all women." Bill and Hillary Clinton said in a statement that, "Gerry Ferraro was one of a kind – tough, brilliant, and never afraid to speak her mind or stand up for what she believed in – a New York icon and a true American original."

Justin Bieber Fan Ejected For Throwing Teddy Bear On Stage ‎

A GIRL of 13 was left heartbroken after she was thrown out of a Justin Bieber concert — for tossing a soft TEDDY BEAR on the stage.

Bridie Moulds had been thrilled when she got a front row seat for the Canadian pop sensation's sell-out show in Sheffield, South Yorks, and made the bear for her idol.
But she was dragged sobbing from the arena just five minutes in after security guards accused her of hurling a "missile" at the teen heartthrob on Wednesday.
Distraught Bridie wept yesterday: "I got down on my knees and begged them not to throw me out. I was crying my eyes out and it was awful.
"I've loved Justin Bieber for years and I've been waiting for him to come to England all this time and then this happens. It's ruined my life."

Bridie's mum Michelle queued up at 6am when tickets went on sale in January to ensure her Bieber-obsessed daughter got some.
The youngster, who was there with two friends, said: "I made a teddy with a t-shirt saying, 'We love you Justin, we're your biggest fans in the UK' and a recorded message saying how much we want to meet him. It was so exciting.
"He had only done one song when I threw the teddy up and it hit the top of Justin's leg. Then this big bodyguard pointed at me and ordered me out. I tried to explain it's just a teddy, I would never want to hurt Justin, but he didn't listen.
"It was humiliating. Now it's all over Facebook and everyone at school knows."
Her two young friends were allowed to stay for the rest of the gig.
Bank adviser Michelle, 44, of Treeton, South Yorks, drove to pick Bridie up from the Sheffield Arena after she called her up in tears.
The mum-of-two, who also lives with husband Chris, 49, an alarm engineer, and daughter Lucia, 16, said: "Bridie is absolutely distraught. She had been looking forward to it for so long. How can they do this? It was only a teddy.
"The bodyguards actually wanted to chuck her out on the street - a 13-year-old girl on her own - but eventually the woman from the Sheffield Arena said she could stay with her until I arrived. I'm furious with how she's been treated.
"I told the Arena it was disgusting, but they said she had thrown a missile and Justin Bieber's management said she had to be ejected."
She said the theatre later phoned to offer Bridie a signed picture of her idol — which she called "pathetic".
Last year the singer was hit in the face by a water bottle thrown from the crowd during a gig in Sacramento, California.
No one at the Sheffield Arena was available for comment today.

Is Justin Bieber Cheating On Selena Gomez With Jasmine Villegas?

We don’t think this is true, however we wanted to share the rumor with you and see what YOU think! The National Enquirer is reporting that Justin Bieber is cheating on girlfriend Selena Gomez with former flame Jasmine Villegas. According to a source who spoke with the tabloid:

Justin’s become so famous so quickly that now he’s not content to settle for just one girl. While he and Selena were together for the February premiere of his documentary Never Say Never, he was secretly sending romantic text messages to Jasmine — saying he was sad she wasn’t with him. Ever since he had a heavy make-out session with Jasmine in his car last fall, he’s had a huge crush on her and desperately wants to hook up with her again. Even though he’s just 17, Justin is turning into a mini-player. And it’s just a matter of time before Selena figures it out and kicks him to the curb.

Platinum jewellery

        Platinum jewellery is expected to be a popular choice for men looking to buy something special this Valentine's Day. Platinum  was accepted as a precious metal after only the second half of the 19th century and has a deep luster and a rich, white colour. It is rarer and heavier than all other precious metals and is considered to be more valuable than gold.

Platinum is often used to set the most valuable gems to produce the finest jewellery. Platinum is one of the most popular metals of choice for ring settings, because the strength and colour of platinum enhances the brilliance and depth of diamonds and precious stones
