Golfing With The Boss
Sooner or later, youll find yourself strolling the fairways with the very man you spend 51 hours a week trying to avoid: your boss. These tips will help you be an engaging, affable golf partner whos still employed after the back nine. Do you suck? If you usually spray drives onto adjacent highways, warn your boss beforehand or itll be an annoying surprise. Two things will help you stay respectable. First, use a 3-wood on tee shots; its easier to hit straight than a driver. Second, when gauging a putt, mime tossing the ball into the hole; then swing the putter the same distance you moved your arm. Don spare him Lousy golfers despise weenies who show their pity by underplaying, so don worry about coddling his ego. Go out there to tear him up. He won respect you unless you try to beat him. Skip the shop talk. Don start jabbering about your lucrative new account, or anything else pertaining to the salt mine, unless your boss does. He might want this day on the links to be R&R, not ...

Drink Yourself Skinny
No calorie counting, no carb watching. For half a century, meal-replacement shakes have been a no-brainer way to drop pounds. Why? They work For Rob Nager, the epiphany occurred at Abercrombie & Fitch. He was picking through a stack of cargo pants and asked a clerk if they were available in a 42-inch waist. Dude, the kid sneered, we don make pants that big. Nager, 38, faced a choice. He could ask the little weasel to step outside, or he could do something about his 250-pound frame. He opted for peace and a new waistline. He tried Weight Watchers, then Atkins. Both plans helped him slim down, but the flab always returned. Finally, Nager tried a weight-loss strategy thats been around since TVs were black-and-white; a strategy so old-school that one of the studies showing that it works went on for a decade. His throwback approach: meal-replacement beverages MRs, in the weight-loss world. Nager just said no to solid food. Instead, he quaffed shakes in place of meals, eventually ...

Papaya
Deliciously sweet with musky undertones and a soft, butter-like consistency, it is no wonder the papaya was reputably called the fruit of the angels by Christopher Columbus. Once considered quite exotic, they can now be found in markets throughout the year. Although there is a slight seasonal peak in early summer and fall, papaya trees produce fruit year round. Papayas are spherical or pear-shaped fruits that can be as long as 20 inches. The ones commonly found in the market usually average about 7 inches and weigh about one pound. Their flesh is a rich orange color with either yellow or pink hues. Inside the inner cavity of the fruit are black, round seeds encased in a gelatinous-like substance. Papayas seeds are edible, although their peppery flavor is somewhat bitter. The fruit, as well as the other parts of the papaya tree, contain papain, an enzyme that helps digest proteins. This enzyme is especially concentrated in the fruit when it is unripe. Papain is extracted to make ...

The arrest comes a month after Benson was charged with boating while intoxicated and resisting arrest. He has said neither charge is true, and ...

Indiana Jones 4
Who? Harrison Ford old, Shia LaBeouf greasy, Karen Allen mumsy, Cate Blanchett bobbed, Ray Winstone Ray Winstoney Background: Close to twenty years, it took. Nearly two full decades, apparently, to perfect a script. To gather its peerless troupe of main players, to synchronise impossibly busy schedules and to hone a suitably astonishing final chapter to one of the greatest film franchises ever. Then 79 filming days to commit a genuine world cinematic event to celluloid: the fourth Indiana Jones movie. And what do we get? We’ll tell you. CGI gophers with surprised expressions, that’s what. Infantile, clunking dialogue. Green-screen sub-XBox action sequences. Elderly people kissing. The only human being ever to survive a nuclear detonation at point-blank range. Later, CGI monkeys with expressions. And your worst nightmares confirmed – aliens and flying saucers. Yes, it’s worse than you could possibly comprehend. A more stultifying disappointment, arguably, than The Phantom Menace. ...

Player Etiquette
There are some lessons men can learn that will instantly improve their chances; here are a few techniques on Player etiquette that will show her you’re a class act. Bad habits Chewing your nails, picking your teeth, picking your nose, smoking -- it happens all the time, and I’ve seen more guys do it involuntarily than a Player should. Displaying your bad habits when you’re picking up a woman is going to instantly kill your game; your little nuances are as glaring as the skin flakes on your shirt. Really, is that appropriate? I think not. A Player has to be prudent about the little things he does. While on the surface it may seem harmless and subtle, to her it’s an obtrusive turnoff that’s going to net you a handshake good-bye rather than the desired fervent lip-lock. Be mindful of what your intuition wants you to do, and think about the consequences if you fall back into your bad habits. Then, think about what kind of benefits you’ll get from her if you suppress your otherwise ...

Golf Swing
The body of the typical weekend golfer looks more like Fuzzy Zoellers than David Duvals. But often the Fuzziest member of a foursome hits it longer than the leanest, fittest one. In golf, flexibility means more than muscles and strength. It all comes down to those words you hear golf announcers whisper on Sundays: shoulder turn, load the right side, weight shift, clear the hips. A golf workout must focus on flexibility and resemble the golf swing, says Neil Chasan, a physical therapist and author of Total Conditioning for Golfers. The biggest limitation for amateurs is a lack of shoulder turn, he says. As you age, the muscles closest to your spine become stiffer. The exercise below can increase your spines range of motion and lead to a fuller shoulder turn. And more yards. SPINE ROTATION STRETCH Stand with your back to a wall and your heels about 6 inches away from it. Keeping your feet flat, turn your body to the right so that you can place both hands on the wall.

Lemon/Limes
Although lemons and limes may not be what you would choose for an afternoon snack, we consider them as powerhouses when we want to bring out the flavor of other foods. While both are available throughout the year, lemons are in the peak of their season around May, June and August while limes are at their peak from May through October. Lemons are oval in shape and feature a yellow, texturized outer peel. Like other citrus fruits, their inner flesh is encased in eight to ten segments. Usually smaller than lemons, limes are oval or round in shape having a diameter of one to two inches with green flesh and skin. They can be either sour or sweet depending on the variety; however, sweet limes are not readily available in the United States. Sour limes contain citric acid giving them an acidic and tart taste, while sweet limes while lack citric acid and are sweeter in flavor.

Garlic
Although garlic may not always bring good luck, protect against evil or ward off vampires, it is guaranteed to transform any meal into a bold, aromatic and healthy culinary experience. Fresh, dried and powdered garlic are available in markets throughout the year, however, fresh varieties from California are in season from June through December. Garlic is arranged in a head, called the bulb, averaging about 2 inches in height and diameter consisting of numerous small separate cloves. Both the cloves and the entire bulb are encased in paper-like sheathes that can be white, off-white or pinkish. Although garlic cloves have a firm texture, they can be easily cut or crushed. The taste of garlic is like no other-it hits the palate with a hot pungency that is shadowed by a very subtle background sweetness. While elephant garlic has larger cloves, it is more closely related to the leek and therefore does not offer the full health benefits of regular garlic. Food Chart This chart ...

MECCANICO DG WATCH BY DE GRISOGONO
Introducing the worlds first mechanically powered digital watch A god among watches, this is possibly the most sophisticated design youll ever wear on your wrist. Born from the imagination of the owner of de Grisogono, Fazwa Gruosi, the Meccanico dG is the worlds first mechanically powered digital watch. Bearing both an analogue display at the top of the dial and digital one at the bottom, this device is solely mechanical. Clever, right? More than you think: beneath the analogue portion of the two-timezone watch is a numerical display driven by the intricate maze of 651 components. The numbers are then formed by the shifting motion of 23 cams and gears, all confined to a space no larger than the size of a matchbox. The design was released to coincide with the Geneva-based companys 15th birthday, and only 177 were ever produced in a colour selection of titanium, titanium and rubber, titanium and platinum, pink gold and red gold. Sizing up at 58mm by 48m, this isn a watch for those ...

LG KF600
While no one has come close to matching the touch screen of the Apple iPhone, the LG KF600 is definitely headed in the right direction. The KF600 features a dual screen with the bottom half or “InteractPad” acting as the buttons, but what’s unique is that the dynamic interface adapts to the particular function that is being used. The phone has some really elegant themes interacting between the two screens, but the touchpad feels somewhat clunky and often unresponsive. Nor is the 3-megapixel camera the best you can get on a phone, but that said, the 4x digital zoom makes up for it. The photo viewer, meanwhile, is very impressive: using the touch screen you can zoom in on areas of a photo using a mini map-style interface. The KF600’s piece de resistance though is the music player, which is where the “InteractPad” really shines. As if by magic, the phone transforms into an MP3 music player with controls to skip tracks, pause and play music and even create your own playlists, while ...

Jones never worried about Jets' flirtation with McFadden
HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. -- Thomas Jones heard all the talk and refused to let it bother him. In the months following the New York Jets dismal 4-12 season, many fans and members of the media insisted running back Darren McFadden would be a perfect fit for a team needing a big-time playmaker. Honestly, I never was concerned about it, the Jets starting running back said tersely. Thomas Jones, RB New York Jets 2007 Statistics: Rushes: 310 Yards: 1,119 Touchdowns: 1 After Oakland selected the Arkansas star with the fourth overall pick -- two spots ahead of the Jets -- many assumed Jones felt relieved. No, he said, shaking his head. Who cares? Thats not my job. Ive been through it all before. My job is to play football. The coaches and the management, thats their job. Ill leave their job up to them, and Ill do my job. Jones split time with Cedric Benson and the two were less than friendly, despite helping lead the Bears to the Super Bowl in 2007. A few weeks later, Chicago traded Jones to New ...

The Money Talk
Any relationship that makes it past the initial stages has to deal with one very sensitive issue and that issue is money. The tricky thing with money is that everybody has peculiarities about what it means and what it does to him/her. Every person tends to have money baggage depending on how their parents raised them and how much money is in their past, but also how they currently handle their cash and what they think their financial future will look like. Money talk can become a necessity at different points in a relationship. If the two of you are planning a vacation together, buying major appliances together or if you’ve been arguing over the issue, the subject should definitely be breached. The only thing to remember is that when the money talk does come up, deal with it right away instead of putting it off. Any procrastination could lead to feelings of resentment or guilt toward you or your partner. The dreaded money talk is such a sensitive issue -- even if both parties are ...

POST-NASAL DRIP; SORE OR RAW THROAT
What May Be Causing It? You can drain almost a liter a day of mucus due to nasal allergies. Post-nasal drip is a runny nose turned inward—instead of mucus flowing out of the front of your nose, it trickles down the back of your throat, where it may trigger coughing, throat-clearing, sore throat, or raw, irritated throat. How Can I Get Some Relief? Try an over-the-counter antihistamine-decongestant combination product. Do I Need to See a Doctor? Yes, if over-the-counter medicines do not clear up your symptoms, a doctor should perform some tests to rule out other conditions that could cause post-nasal drip, such as chronic sinusitis, GERD gastroesophageal reflux disease, or laryngeal-pharyngeal reflux, which is related to GERD and causes irritation in the same area. ...

RASPY VOICE, CRACKLING VOICE
What May Be Causing It? Mucus accumulating on the vocal cords causes your voice to crack, or sound raspy or rough. The cause could be infection or allergies. One way to tell: If you have other allergy symptoms along with the raspy throat, its likely your allergies are causing the throat symptoms, too. How Can I Get Some Relief? Try longer-acting, non-sedating, over-the-counter antihistamine medicines such as Claritin or Zyrtec. If the post-nasal drip is heavy, a combination antihistamine-decongestant Claritin-D, Zyrtec-D would help more. Do I Need to See a Doctor? No, if over-the-counter medicines do the trick for you.

The world of chocolate has its highs and lows, to be sure. And the solid milk-chocolate bunnies we all enjoyed as kids are fine for 7-year-olds, but your palate has evolved beyond swapping quality for quantity.

Top 10: Tuner Models
You might be wondering what tuner models actually do. In short, they’re the hotties who grace the pages of auto magazines like Super Street and Import Tuner. They also appear in hot rod and dirt bike calendars, work as spokeswomen for auto part companies and can generally be seen prancing around in tiny outfits at big racing events. Unless you harbor a love of cars and their various parts, you may not have heard of some of these tuner models. Of course, some of them often cross over into other forms of modeling so there is a chance you may know them well from other areas.

Signs You Don't Want The Job
You’ve heard it all before: When you have a job interview it’s important to come on time, dress right and project a positive attitude. What people always seem to forget, however, is that it’s crucial that you also use this opportunity to get a sense of your potential employer. After all, what good is an offer from a company you’d desperately want to leave after just a few days? The next time you embark on an interview for employment, make sure you watch for these signs you don’t want the job. The interview takes place off-site Obviously, if you’re applying for a field position abroad or in a different city, chances are the interview will have to occur in a public place. However, if the company has a local office and the interviewer still insists on meeting you at a bar or a restaurant, you should consider it one of the signs you don’t want the job. Some employers resort to this practice when they’re trying to hide something about the office environment, while others use the casual ...

IRRITABILITY, ANGER, CRANKINESS
What May Be Causing It? Allergies go beyond nose, eyes, ears, and throat, and have systemic whole-body symptoms.

Strawberries
The fragrantly sweet juiciness and deep red color of strawberries can brighten up both the taste and aesthetics of any meal; it is no wonder they are the most popular berry fruit in the world. Although strawberries have become increasingly available year-round, they are at the peak of their season from April through July when they are the most delicious and most abundant. While there are more than 600 varieties of strawberries that differ in flavor, size and texture, one can usually identify a strawberry by its red flesh that has yellow seeds piercing its surface, and the small, regal, green leafy cap and stem that adorn its crown. In addition to strawberries that are cultivated, there are also varieties that grow wild. These are much smaller in size, but feature a more intense flavor.

Brown rice
In some parts of the world, the word to eat literally means to eat rice. All varieties of rice are available throughout the year, supplying as much as half of the daily calories for half of the worlds population. The process that produces brown rice removes only the outermost layer, the hull, of the rice kernel and is the least damaging to its nutritional value. The complete milling and polishing that converts brown rice into white rice destroys 67% of the vitamin B3, 80% of the vitamin B1, 90% of the vitamin B6, half of the manganese, half of the phosphorus, 60% of the iron, and all of the dietary fiber and essential fatty acids. Fully milled and polished white rice is required to be enriched with vitamins B1, B3 and iron. Food Chart This chart graphically details the %DV that a serving of Brown rice provides for each of the nutrients of which it is a good, very good, or excellent source according to our Food Rating System.

Golf Swing Tip
When we golf, we spend a lot of time behind trees -- and thats before we break out the six-pack. So Ken Williams, of Professional Golf Teachers and Coaches of America, told us how to hit the ball so itll curve around bark. Use a sand wedge if the ball is in 4 or more inches of grass, your pitching wedge if you want it to go farther than 20 yards. Miss the tree Stand so the ball is 2 inches to the left of your right foot. Keep a narrow stance, and aim your body to the left of the tree by moving your left foot back. This makes the ball come off your club to the left side of the tree. Hit the ball When you bring your club back, keep your hands at the same height as your hips. Swing so youll hit down on the ball. That will keep your club from making too much contact with grass and you from serving it up next to the stump. Reach the fairway Hit the ball so your club connects with the back side of the ball. This pops the ball up and around the tree. Your follow-through should mirror your ...

Boost your own distance and durability with Vijay Singh's golfer's workout
Vijay Singh spends lots of time in the public eye -- contending for titles nine wins last year, accepting checks nearly $11 million in 2004, and battling Tiger Woods for the worlds number-one ranking.

Singhs high-intensity regimen features twice-a-day workouts with golf-specific moves that hone his physical, mental, and tactical game. At this age, Im the strongest Ive ever been in my life, he says. The idea about playing golf used to be, ‘Hey, you don need muscles, theyll interfere with the golf swing. In this day and age, the golf game has evolved into something totally different -- who hits it the farthest, who lasts the longest. You can do that by just hitting golf balls.

The 20 Unhealthiest Drinks in America
Americans have a drinking problem, and not the type you might think. As the authors of the best-selling book Eat This, Not That!, David Zinczenko and co-author Matt Goulding get e-mails all the time from readers who claim they eat carefully, they work out consistently, but they still can get the needle on the scale to budge. What gives? goes the collective, exasperated refrain from the stagnant dieter. What most people don know is that the biggest roadblock between you and the body you want isn found at the end of a fork, but at the bottom of a glass. As a country we take in 21 percent of our daily calories from beverages and, according to the FDA, the average American takes in 82 grams of added sugars every day. Thats 20 teaspoons, which contribute an empty 317 calories to our already calorie-saturated diets. Sure, some of that comes from soda, but even if youve traded regular Coke for diet, whole milk coffee drinks for low-fat lattes, and you barely touch the booze, you could ...

Apples
The warm scent and flavor of baking apples is a sure sign that fall is just around the corner. In the Northern Hemisphere apples are in season from late summer to early winter.

RED OR BLOODSHOT EYES
What May Be Causing It? Typically, it’s allergies. If you only have it at certain times of the year, it’s probably a seasonal allergy to outdoor pollens.

Cabbage
Sturdy, abundant and inexpensive, cabbage is a longstanding dietary staple throughout the world and is so widely cultivated and stores so well that it is available throughout the year. However, it is at its best during the late fall and winter months when it is in season. Cabbage is round in shape with layers of superimposed leaves with the inner leaves often lighter in color than the outer leaves because they are protected from the sunlight.

Samsung D410
The feel of a phone in your hand is, perhaps subconsciously, as important as what it can do for you in terms of communications. Samsungs latest GSM phone has a sliding upper portion which you flick open with your thumb when it rings. The keypad is then revealed and you can speak; but the action of doing that just feels good. The rotating camera on the top edge is also a nice physical aspect of the phone, while the features and functions are what youd expect from a mid-to-high range handset such as this. The screen, though, is high-end stuff: 250,000 colours and eight lines of ...

How to Have a 1-Night Stand
Heres what I remember about the best one-night stand of my life: everything but his name. He was a bartender-slash-actor who rode a beat-up motorcycle, but I didn find that out until after his jeans came off. It started in a bar. He sat down next to my girlfriend and me -- we were having a giggly girls night out -- stared in the other direction, and didn say a word. After 10 minutes, he asked if I would watch his stuff while he went outside to make a call. When he came back, he grimaced like De Niro and thanked me very politely. By that point, I was already curious about whom he had called, what was in his faded leather bag, and why he wouldn smile. So I asked if he was having a bad day. Within a couple of hours, we were naked in bed together. And then he was gone. To this day, I have to admire how smooth he was, because great one-night stands are tough to pull off. Plenty can go wrong between the first long look and the next-day e-mail. This is what you need to know to do ...

Motorola MOTO U9
The new Motorola MOTO U9 is small, lightweight and shiny: not my usual taste in mobiles, but I was pleasantly surprised. The MOTO U9 has a clamshell design with a unique outer OLED screen hidden beneath its shiny exterior; you wouldn even know it existed until you received your first text message. What is really amazing about this outer screen is the ingenious interface that allows you to control many of the phones functions, including playing music, using touch-sensitive buttons. You can even reply to text messages using a pre-defined, customisable list of replies, all without actually opening the phone. The feature that most impressed, though, was the predictive text writing: not only does it provide suggestions for finishing words, but it also offers to complete entire sentences that you have previously written, making messaging lightning-quick. The camera is only 2 megapixels, which by todays standards is quite poor, but the phones stylish design and ultra-cool music controls ...

212 Men Splash by Carolina Herrera
A lighter, fresher version of the original, 212 Splash from Carolina Herrera is definitely a staple fragrance for the summer months. The limited-edition scent is available in blue for men and pink for women obviously, and comes packaged in what looks like an oversized drinks can. That’s presumably to evoke the refreshing ethos of the fragrance, which is to “relieve the heat of the city by making the skin a vibrant oasis”. Splash for men is a light and fresh-smelling fusion of mint, nutmeg, bergamot and ginger. If you liked the original, then you’ll definitely be a fan of this. Warning: aftershave will not actually relieve the heat of the city sun or quench your thirst, should the packaging fool you into drinking ...

CRUSTY OR CRUDDY EYES
What May Be Causing It? Gunky, crusty eyes may be caused by an allergy or an eye infection. Sometimes it’s hard to tell the difference, even for doctors. They tend to see more of those during allergy season, because people scratch their itchy eyes and can get an infection in the eye. How Can I Get Some Relief? Don’t tackle this yourself. If your eyes are crusty in the morning or you see crustiness throughout the day, you may have in-eye infection. Do I Need to See a Doctor? Yes. See your doctor right away. It may be much more serious than an allergy and is more of a medical emergency that needs to be treated promptly. Don’t delay treatment.

Give over-the-counter allergy medicines like Claritin, Claritin-D, and Zyrtec a try. If they work for you, you probably have allergic rhinitis and taking over-the-counter antihistamines for these seasonal spring or fall allergies is perfectly fine. Do I Need to See a Doctor? Maybe. The rule of thumb is if you have this more than one season a year or if it is a continual problem, you should see a doctor for testing to find out what you’re allergic to and use other medicines to control your allergy. ...

Seduction, Fast and Easy
Jack remembers the moment vividly. His fiancée, Tamara, pulled the sheet over her head, afraid to face him. She blurted it out: Jack, I don come when we do it. His head spun. Theyd been having sex for 2 years. She seemed, well, satisfied. To his--and her--credit, they talked about it; they didn let this bombshell wreck their relationship. And they tried everything: vibrators, romantic weekends, oral sex--until my jaw ached, Jack says. After a month of effort, he came to my office, desperate and distraught, not sure what to try next. Maybe you have to stop trying so hard to turn her on, I said, and learn how to turn her off. Jack looked at me. Who was I, Yoda? I switched from Zen-speak to sex-therapist mode, explaining that a womans arousal depends on deep relaxation and an absence of anxiety. Ive counseled countless women, and its universal--when they e relaxed, it happens. There are brain scans to prove it. Fun in the Lab In the Netherlands, scientists used ...

Finally, be prepared for your partners reaction, which could range from sheer disgust to girls ...

Ways to Have Better Sex
Sex is a Race Break it: Explore her. Focus on her thighs and lower belly. Make a mental circle 2 inches around the outside of her vagina, and don cross the line while you kiss, lick, and caress, says Gloria Brame, Ph.D., author of Different Loving. Youll ignite her nerve endings and bring her close to her red zone. It makes sex about discovery, not some destination. Goal-oriented sex isn sexy, Brame says. Same Time, Same Place Break it: Relive the past. Take her to the garage and reclaim the space you long ago ceded: Seduce her in the backseat of the car. It feels a little public, its steeped in testosterone, and theres a throwback, high-school quality to it. Make it a quickie, which has its place in the sexual diet; having lots of sex begets more sex, because you stay connected, says Laura Berman, Ph.D., director of the Berman Center in Chicago. Predictable Foreplay Break it: Work out together. Think of it as fat-burning foreplay. It will raise her dopamine levels, easing her ...

DARK CIRCLES UNDER EYES
What May Be Causing It? Allergies trigger nasal congestion and, in turn, nasal congestion causes blood flow to back up in the area under the eyes. The skin under the eye is very thin, so backed-up blood flow in the venous system under the eye is visible as a dark shadow or circle. Sometimes this symptom is associated with chronic sinusitis or chronic nasal blockage as well as allergies. How Can I Get Some Relief? If its just an intermittent or occasional problem, try over-the-counter nasal medicines that decrease nasal congestion. Do I Need to See a Doctor? Yes. Usually this becomes more of a chronic problem and the medicines that work best to treat it are prescription drugs, so youll need to see a doctor for medication.

Porsche Design P9521 mobile phone
After collaborations with fashion designers proved popular this year, Sagem has teamed up with luxury car manufacturer Porsche Design to produce a phone that boasts fingerprint recognition technology, enabling secure access to data and dialing. The P9521 is surprisingly heavy, but perhaps a price worth paying for its sleek black glass and solid aluminium finish. Created to epitomise contemporary design, the square-jawed flip phone has more than a whiff of Eighties style about it. But with a touch screen colour display, MP3 player and a 3.2 mega pixel camera, it’s safe to say this flash phone matches style with substance. But with a hefty price tag of £800, Porsche is likely to burn a hole in your pocket as well as rubber on the track. Available exclusively from Porsche Design stores and from ...

Fine Living Top 10: Steaks
he best steaks aren’t always the top-dollar buys in the worlds finest restaurants. While Kobe and Wagyu beef are excellent, they have their share of competitors. Look for restaurants who obviously go above and beyond in their attention to detail. Do they age on the premises, for example? And who selects the cuts of meat for sale?

College Sex Pointers for Better Sex
Read on for five college sex rules to better sex... College Sex Rule 1: Claim a new campus Consider the cafés, library nooks, and grassy quads where the average American college student spends most of the day. These public spaces foster a sexual vibe by design.

Both the physical comfort of a space and the sense of belonging put you at ease. So student lounges, flower-filled quads, coed dorms -- these settings are all designed to encourage intimacy and exclusivity. Okay, so you e not going to sidle up to a hot sophomore in the coffee shop now. But seek out places with long tables or low, comfortable couches, suggests Laura Gimpel, the facilities manager at Googles New York offices, which were outfitted purposely to mimic the college environment ...

The Clear-Skin Makeover
Like high school pop quizzes and awkward prom dates, pimples are supposed to be distant bad memories. If only. But these days, even moms of teens are battling blemishes — and wrinkles, too. In fact, between 15 and 35 percent of women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s suffer from breakouts, according to a report published last year in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology. And those numbers are on the rise, says dermatologist Richard Fried, M.D., Ph.D., author of Healing Adult Acne. Doctors attribute this increase to everything from skyrocketing stress levels and hormone fluctuations to today’s carbohydrate-heavy diets. If you’re tempted to treat your acne with a few old tricks from your teen years, don’t. Adult skin is more sensitive and less resilient than adolescent complexions, and it calls for treatments that also fight the signs of aging. Luckily, many of the best zit zappers out there happen to be top anti-agers, too. So whether your breakouts are an occasional annoyance ...

UPPER BODY
Muscles worked: Triceps, rear shoulders, chest Method: “Wear a firmly fastened belt and put a chain through it. Attach a dumbbell to the chain.

Stretch Before You Drive
Hit It Longer Stretching before golf is like eating broccoli -- we know its good for us, but we don partake nearly enough. Its worth showing up at the course 10 minutes early for this routine -- youll avoid back trouble and have more power and endurance. Without flexibility, the best players in the world aren able to maintain their turn and hip speed from day to day, says Randy Myers, fitness director at PGA National Resort and Spa, who works on flexibility with more than 80 touring professionals. He sees amateurs wasting time on common moves, such as putting a club behind the shoulder blades. Instead, do it like the pros. 1. TORSO ROTATION Lie on the floor with your back flat, and cross your left ankle over your right knee. Spread your arms out in a T. Keeping your shoulders on the floor, rotate your hips to the left, using the ankle to push down on the opposite knee. Try to put both knees on the floor. Hold for 8 seconds. Rotate to the right, keeping the left ankle on the ...

Exotic Rides: Lexus IS F
In the not-so-distant past, there was a time when the Toyota Motor Corporation’s amenity-laden American affiliate, Lexus, was heavily scrutinized -- not for the grade of the vehicles produced, as most car manufacturers are, but for the catalog itself. This barrage of criticism was spurred by the complete absence of a single performance model rolling off of Lexus assembly lines. Enter the Lexus Intelligent Sport series -- code name: IS. Although the first two generations of 200/300 and 250/350 were well received and a formidable foray into the arena of high-output luxury sedans, rivals like Infiniti, Mercedes, Acura, and specifically BMW were beefing up their offerings to previously unheard of proportions, putting the heat on Lexus to remain competitive. And Lexus took on the challenge with gusto -- thank the vehicular lords. If the IS 430 prototype was to serve as any indication of Lexus performance capabilities, not even that could prepare us for the unveiling of the supremely ...

Cranberries
A cousin of the blueberry, this very tart, bright red berry can still be found growing wild as a shrub, but when cultivated, is grown on low trailing vines in great sandy bogs. The American cranberry, the variety most cultivated in the northern United States and southern Canada, produces a larger berry than the wild cranberry or the European variety. Cranberries have long been valued for their ability to help prevent and treat urinary tract infections. Now, recent studies suggest that this native American berry may also promote gastrointestinal and oral health, prevent the formation of kidney stones, lower LDL and raise HDL good cholesterol, aid in recovery from stroke, and even help prevent cancer. Fresh cranberries, which contain the highest levels of beneficial nutrients, are at their peak from October through December, just in time to add their festive hue, tart tangy flavor and numerous health protective effects to your holiday meals. When cranberries short fresh season is ...

WATERY OR ITCHY EYES
What May Be Causing It? Watery eyes or itchy eyes are typically caused by the same underlying allergy problem as red or bloodshot eyes. Your bodys histamine reaction to the allergen pollen or other trigger causes itching and watering. Intermittent symptoms point to seasonal allergens such as tree or grass pollens; ongoing symptoms suggest the trigger is something you e exposed to throughout the year, such as dust mites, dander, or mold. How Can I Get Some Relief? Use over-the-counter allergy eye drops. Do I Need to See a Doctor? Maybe. If OTC remedies work, you can skip the doc. If the problem is chronic, see a doctor for two reasons: to get prescription medicine that will work better than OTC; and because some conditions that are not allergy-related can cause chronic watery eyes. You should be checked by an ophthalmologist an eye specialist doctor. ...

POPPING EARS OR HEARING PROBLEMS
What May Be Causing It? Allergens spur fluid changes within the ear. They can cause negative or positive pressure in the middle ear, triggering the same kind of popping or plugging sensation you feel when a plane changes altitude. Fluid bulging against the eardrum causes positive pressure; no fluid plus a vacuum pulling the eardrum inward causes negative pressure. Hearing distortions typically are caused by fluid plugging the Eustachian tube that normally vents the middle ear. How Can I Get Some Relief? Try over-the-counter antihistamine-decongestant combination medicines to curb the allergic reaction thats triggering the symptom and to reduce congestion fluid build-up. Do I Need to See a Doctor? Yes, if your symptoms persist and over-the-counter remedies don resolve ...

Golf Tips from Camilo Villegas
Last September, Camilo Villegas was driving his black, 500-horsepower Porsche Cayenne Turbo to his Atlanta hotel after a PGA tournament when he saw flashing lights behind him. He pulled onto the shoulder of the road and waited as a policeman sauntered up to his window. You been drinking? the cop asked. Officer, I just got off the golf course. I was playing in a tournament, replied Villegas. So youve had a few drinks. Officer, like I said, I just got off the course. Thats exactly what I mean, countered the cop. You golf, you drink. Thats what its all about. After Villegas explained he was a professional golfer, the officer relented and let him off the hook for creeping above the speed limit. I thought that was pretty funny, says Villegas. Lots of people still don think of golf as a sport. Villegas pronounced bee-JAY-gus is a 26-year-old from Colombia who turned pro in 2004 and finished last year with nearly $4 million in career earnings. Although he has yet to ...

Tough times reward smart thinking and sticking to a Plan
I have a strange affinity for remembering every recession this country has had since I could read. It probably wasn due to my quirky preoccupation with the news, but more so with how strongly each recession affected our family. So, as a kid I made a passionate pledge to ensure that in the future my own family wouldn suffer so stingingly from market turbulence. Theres something to be said for keeping past economies—and family financials—in mind when managing your money. Here are a few lessons from the rear-view mirror of history to keep you steady despite the markets Patagonia-like peaks and valleys: The markets gonna do what the markets gonna do. Its one thing to watch the Dow gyrate up and down every day, but why torture yourself by regularly sneaking peeks at your investment portfolio? Its like picking at a scab. Unless you e going to retire in less than five years, that tiny return or big loss you e looking at this year needs to become background noise, not cause for panic. ...
