HTTP:: Demi Moore Denies Having Had Plastic Surgery to Look Younger
--------
Demi Moore turns 47 this year, in November, but even when she’s not wearing any makeup or is not lit specifically to hide any flaws she might have, she still looks better than most women half her age, it has been said. Once known as the queen of plastic surgery for the many interventions she is believed to have had to remove all ungraceful signs of old age, Moore is now vehemently denying ever going under the knife, as the Mirror can confirm. Speaking to Marie Claire while in France recently and quoted by the British publication, the actress wants the world to know that she never had any surgical intervention for beautification purposes, no matter what the tabloid media claims. As per the star’s own words, the scalpel does not bring happiness â€" on the contrary, it makes it altogether impossible, because it represents nothing but a very short-lived illusion of youth, which leaves frustration in its stead once it’s gone. Moore did not spend an estimated £200,000 !
in plastic surgery, including breast and face lifts, tummy tucks, liposuction and even the rare knee-rejuvenation surgery. “It’s completely false. I’ve never had it done. But I would never judge those who have. If it’s the best thing for them, then I don’t see a problem. I...

It was made for the GameCube, the PlayStation 2 from Sony, the PC, and the Xbox from Microsoft, and classed as an action adventure title played from a third person perspective, incorporating elements of a shooter, a role playing experience and some problem solving. The game is not too involved in any of the genres, instead trying to create an adventure where each element is easy to access and complete.It is positioned as a three-dimensional version of the game initially released in 1983. The protagonist of the videogame is a goofy yet very brave hero named Dirk the Daring, who is on a quest to save his princess Daphne. She is currently locked up in a castle and he must face the evil dragon Singe to set her free.The game aims to keep up the initial humor of the series, with the protagonist mostly put in weird situations and!

Were one to divide people by the stances they take towards body weight, we could probably note two major categories: one that speaks for acceptance and embracing the body each and every one of us lives in, and another that is completely opposed to anything beyond the limits of “normalcy,†meaning either skinny or overweight people. For some reason or another, people today cannot find a balance between the two. Moreover, the rhetoric against fat people is becoming louder and more virulent with each day, with the US standing out from the crowd as the biggest hater of them all, a recent piece in NewsWeek says. The common tendency is to turn against overweight people solely on the premise that they have done the harm themselves, therefore must suffer the consequences no matter what they are. In the US in particular, the piece says, the anti-fat rhetoric has reached such heights (or lows, depending on how one considers it), that packing on a few pounds seems the equivalent!
of the biggest crime one can commit.

Music video site Vevo, the joint venture between two of the four big music labels, Universal Music and Sony Music, backed by YouTube, was first announced in April this year, with a launch date set for late 2009, but has since stayed mostly quiet. Paid Content now reports that the venture's CEO Rio Caraeff has been busy looking for investors to pony up for a stake in the site at a $300 million valuation. It's unclear how much money he is looking to raise, though one estimate, based on Hulu's initial investment, may be around $30 million for a 10 percent stake. While the market for music startups seems pretty harsh at the moment, the site's high-profile backers, Universal and Sony providing the catalogue and Google providing the technical know-how and hardware capabilities, make it one of safest investments available.

August was an interesting month for the browser market, with all competitors seeing significant changes in their overall share, for better or for worse.

Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser still dominates the market with its three actively used versions adding up to a 66.6 percent share.

HTTP:: Analyst Steve Jobs to Host September iPod Event

Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster issued a note to clients this week saying that Apple was ready to introduce camera-equipped iPods, although not everyone would greet the new models with cheers. Other forecasts include an appearance on behalf of Mr. Steve Jobs (some analysts say otherwise), and an AppleTV announcement. In his most recent note, the analyst warns investors may not be blown away by the new iPods carrying cameras, while noting that iPod sales are slowing down, except for the iPod touch. As reported by CNNMoney, other possible announcements include the following, according to Munster: - A new version of iTunes with integrated social networking features. - Changes to the iTunes Store, including new music features with richer album artwork. - Expanded TV and movie options on iTunes with more available content and/or better viewing rights for multiple devices. According to 9to5Mac, earlier, Munster expressed his belief that Apple might introduce a cable TV-show!

Just a few hours ago, the Michael Jackson drama opened another chapter, with several so-called close sources telling the media that Blanket’s real father was actor Macaulay Culkin, Michael’s friend from the days of yore. Jackson reportedly loved Culkin so much that creating a mini-version of him was the only way he could think of to keep him close, The Sun writes. The actor’s rep, though, is adamant such allegations are preposterous. The Sun spoke to several sources well familiar with the Jackson case and especially with the fact that the three children (Paris, Prince Michael and Blanket) were not his. Rumors on the paternity of the first two still circulate, while, for the younger Jackson kid, they seem to have settled on Macaulay Culkin. He was extremely close to Michael when he was younger, which made the singer literally idolize him. Naturally, when he grew up, Jackson asked the actor for a little help to perfect his “ideal family.†“It is well known Jacks!

Accuse Chris Brown of what you will, but there is one thing that he won’t stand the media says of him, and that’s him saying he doesn’t remember beating his former girlfriend Rihanna, back in February this year. The singer issued a statement to TMZ, clarifying a snippet of an interview with Larry King for CNN, in which it seems that Brown is saying he doesn’t remember lifting a finger against Rihanna. The snippet, actually a preview for the full-length interview that has been released by CNN for promotional purposes, shows a bowtie-wearing Brown apparently at a loss for words when King asks him how he came to be abusive towards his girlfriend. He then flatly denies hitting her â€" or this is what it seems he’s doing from the truncated interview.

British investigators from the UK Royal Society have determined in a new study that some of the propositions related to mitigating the effects of global warming and climate change through geoengineering are feasible, or at least technically possible. These approaches may also yield positive results, the same report also states. Geoengineering refers to producing artificial changes in the planet's atmosphere, and/or oceans, with the effect of cooling down the climate, or accelerating the absorption and storage of carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, in the oceans, the BBC News reports. The new paper, however, highlights the fact that the feasible propositions should not, under any circumstances, prevent governments from continuing to reduce carbon dioxide levels. They add that, even if the most optimistic geoengineering schemes prove to function, they will only do so in the short term, and will not be able to handle constant or increasing CO2 and methane emissions. In !
other words, these methods are just aids to the main effort, which should remain reducing the amount of carbon that the world's countries are emitting into the atmosphere yearly. The schemes include a large number of propositions, some pertaining to science-fiction, and others that could really be applied to some effect....

According to the British publication, after the girl had her hair cut, she asked to have it all bagged, sealed and then handed to her minders to avoid leeches from stealing it and having it DNA-tested.

HTTP:: Carrie Prejean Sues Miss California USA for Religious Discrimination
--------
Miss California Carrie Prejean was the favorite for the title of Miss USA, but she eventually lost the crown to another girl when she gave her honest and unveiled opinion on Prop 8 and same-gender marriages. Following weeks of media scrutiny and intense debates, Prejean was eventually asked to step down as well as Miss California, since she came to represent something that the pageant did not wish to be associated with. Prejean is now suing the Miss California USA organization for discrimination, TMZ says. In court documents just filed, Carrie claims she was robbed of her crown for reasons that had absolutely nothing to do with her abilities to be a beauty queen, but rather that were closely connected to who she was as a person. The fact that the Miss USA Organization has said all along that she failed to fulfill her contractual obligations as Miss California, Prejean says, was just another lie sold to the media and the public in order to further ruin her reputation. A la!
wsuit and winning the case will perhaps clear her good name, Carrie believes. “Prejean just filed the suit in L.A. County Superior Court, accusing Moakler and pageant honcho Keith Lewis of religious discrimination, defamation, public disclosure of private facts, intentional infliction of emotional distress,...

"Welcome to Macintosh" is an independent documentary highlighting Apple's history that can now be downloaded on the iTunes movie store, as well as on DVD through major media retailers. The documentary explains how Apple Inc. has changed the world featuring notable personalities such as Andy Hertzfeld, co-creator of the original Macintosh, and Guy Kawasaki, Mac evangelist. "The goal was to make a film that you can show to anyone, even someone that has never used a computer, and have them understand why so many people love Macintosh," Rob Baca, one of the film's co-directors, says. "Thousands of DVDs have been sold and more are on order. That, along with thousands of views via the Netflix Instant Queue in the first week of release, tells us interest continues to grow." "Make no mistake, this film is about as independent as you can get. No studio, no bankroll, just two dedicated Apple fans and their credit cards.

Carbon nanotubes are one possible line of development, but their silicon-based counterparts are not far behind, as evidenced by the research conducted by IBM expert Frances Ross in her laboratory. She is using extremely powerful electron microscopes to analyze mushroom-shaped silicon nanowires, less than one-thousandth the width of a human hair in diameter, the New York Times informs. One of the main reasons why labs around the world are currently orienting their efforts towards studying structures at the nanoscale is the fact that transistor technology is currently reaching its fundamental physical limits of miniaturization.

According to the presidential panel committee that has just recently finished looking into the activities under development at NASA, extending the lifespan of the International Space Station (ISS) beyond 2015 is key to reaching Mars. The experts, who said that they themselves were surprised by the find, highlight the similarities between a six-month stay on the ISS and a six-month, one-way trip to Mars, in terms of how microgravity affects the human body, Reuters reports. At this point, the orbital station is scheduled to be dismantled in 2015. However, over the past few years, more and more voices started supporting the idea of keeping the 16-nation, $100-billion project in place until 2020, or maybe even 2025.

HTTP:: Fog Seen on Titan 039 s South Pole
--------
Astronomers were puzzled to discover fog on Titan, one of Saturn's most intriguing moons. In spite of the fact that they knew it supported an active methane hydrological cycle, the team had absolutely no idea that surface-atmosphere exchanges appeared as well. The find is the first ever to reveal the fact that the moon's hydrological processes are similar to those on our planet. However, it is safe to say that the fog was not made up of water vapors, as Titan is covered in hydrocarbon lakes, most notably methane, arXiv reports. The observations that led to the discovery of fog were conducted using the Visible and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS) instrument, aboard the Cassini spacecraft. The investigation was done by M.E. Brown, A.L. Smith, and C.Chen, all from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences. M. Adamkovics, from the University of California in Berkeley (UCB) Department of Astronomy also contributed to the !
research. The team's conclusions point at the fact that the fog in Titan's atmosphere could only have formed from the evaporation of liquid methane or ethane from the lakes on the surface. In recent studies, it was revealed that the late summer season on the moon was a time when the South Pole regions were filled with liquid hydrocarbons, and many...

HTTP:: Bionic Circuitry Could Soon Cure Paralysis
--------
Experts from the University of Washington have recently managed a significant breakthrough in treating paralysis, when they have created a set of circuity that allows a monkey with a temporal disability in a wrist to move it. The circuits and wires, controlled by a central unit, bypassed a nerve that had been sedated for the purpose of the experiment, so as to prevent electrical impulses from the brain reaching the wrist. The movements were entirely performed through the use of bionic electronics, NewScientist reports. The team of experts that performed the promising experiment was led by scientist Eberhard Fetz, from the University of Washington (UW), in Seattle. The reason why this investigation, and others like it, bear so much importance in the field of medicine stands precisely in their ability to bypass an affected area and to restore function to the body segments below.

HTTP:: How to Detox Properly at the End of Summer
--------
Summer, although the perfect season to gorge on fruit and veggies, often turns out to be quite the contrary to that. Summer means holidays and visiting exotic places with exotic foods, but also the season of barbecues, ice creams and nights out in town. It’s no wonder, then, that we have days when we feel completely under the weather, lacking energy and overall bat. Detoxing by means of a cleanser is not the answer, though, as FitSugar points out. Celebrities can’t stop singing the praises of the so-called detox diets, which are actually programs that consist of only very few items believed to help the body rid itself of the toxins and wastes. Their effects are still subject to debate, but their negative consequences are immediately noticeable, which is why nutritionists recommend against them, no matter the celebrity promoting them or the form they may come under. The best way to detox after several months of indulging, as FitSugar also puts it, is by making sure we !
cut out all those things that are damaging for our health. “Instead of a detox, what I do recommend is eating a diet full of all the healthy foods you can find including fruits, veggies, whole grains, lean protein, lowfat dairy products, and nuts. Omit or limit the foods that are high in saturated fat, sugar, and alcohol, an...

HTTP:: Nintendo Wii Will Get a Price Cut Before October
--------
Does the price really matter? At one end, the answer seems to be yes. After all, Amazon has announced that it will have some issues shipping all the PlayStation 3 Slim consoles that have been pre-ordered, at the same time limiting each consumer to one purchase, and Microsoft has been very quick to cut the price of the Xbox 360 Elite to the same level as that of the new Slim.At the other end, the Nintendo Wii is no longer the cheapest videogame console on the market, yet still manages to outsell both its rivals month after month as the industry overall shows ever worse performances when compared to 2008.Jesse Divnich, analyst, NPD Group, explains the early success enjoyed by Nintendo, “Essentially, Nintendo stole potential PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 consumers from this hardware lifecycle three years in advance. In order to maintain this position Nintendo should drop their Wii console down to $199, not because the current Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 pricing structure poses a !
threat; rather, because they will eventually pose a threat.â€Another analyst, Stern Agee, believes that October would be a perfect moment for Nintendo to announce its price cut, mainly because it allows the company to see the impact of the cuts made by Sony and Microsoft while also offering a new price point befor...

Even fewer can erase from their memory the tacky and often embarrassing outfits of the Romanian twins who broke on the international market with the above-mentioned song a few years back.

Speaking with the Daily Mail prior to the release of their cosmetics line, which mostly targets teens, Monica and Gabriela Irimia open for the first time and detail their long struggle with anorexia nervosa, when, pressured from all sides to look good, the girls stopped eating and started losing weight. For over a year, they managed to hide their condition from their mother and step father, during which time they survived on less than 500 calories a day and had reached a point where they counted all calories !
