If only I was a tree....sigh... Okay. Rosie O'Donnell and Donald Trump are such weird human beings. They are fighting. It is strange how a powerful person like Donald Trump can simply sue her on such small grounds. It shows just how powerful he is, and also how ridiculous he is. Rosie on the other hand is just nuts. Check out this video of Trump ripping her down. I am beginning to believe that J.K. Rowling will be involved in the armegeddon plot. (j/k J.K.!) Her 7th Harry Potter series book has a title finally; "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollws." The actress Evangeline Lilly who plays Kate Austeon on "Lost" recently had an unknown accident. Well her rented house with two roommates in Hawaii burned down or something. That sucks!
NOC College+ Christmas party. I'm the one bending to the side on the right. Christmas parties are so fun and really strange. I don't know why so I am not going to start trying. The more frequent they are, the more normal they become. Yay Sean, Me, Paul and Mia are working together tomorrow at Panache in Newport! I recently watched Nausicaa even though it came out a year after I was born. It's another from Hayao Miyazaki, it was really awesome, and the girl from Matchstick Men, Alison Lohman was the main characters voice! Patrick Stewart is also a voice on this U.S. release. Okay here is some music. Feed your ipod!

That's a picture of me and my roommates at Paul's Christmas party. Today was cool cause I got to be the lead at one of the Panache events for some hours. It was cool. 380 people event for some manufacturing distro company. It was my second time and I got to drive the van again! wahoo!
I love reading the news, I would rather read the news with a good record playing and some tea than almost anything! Funny thing though, it is rare when I get that chance. Anyways I have read some interesting things in the news today so Check it out!
POM JUICE INTERNAL DIARRHEA ALERT! or HOAX: Animal-rights terrorists say they've contaminated 487 bottles of trendy Pom pomegranate juice sold in stores all along the East Coast, People who drink the juices will suffer "diarrhea, vomiting and headaches," the Animal Rights Militia promised in a communique. But health officials seemed unconcerned - city, state and federal agencies contacted yesterday said they hadn't heard of the threat, and the company that sells the juice suspects a hoax but is checking stores to see if its product has been tampered with. Animal-rights groups say mice and rabbits are being killed in tests aimed at supporting Pom's advertising claims.
IVERSON'S NEW HOME:One day after losing Carmelo Anthony to a 15-game suspension, the Denver Nuggets took a gamble and added Allen Iverson, a fiercely competitive star whose scoring brilliance comes with controversy.
ONE SMALL STEP FOR GOOGLE: Google is taking more than one small step in formalizing its relationship with a NASA research facility. This week, the search giant announced it signed a Space Act agreement with NASA Ames Research Center.
The two groups said they plan to work jointly on a range of technical problems from large-scale data management and massively distributed computing to human-computer interface. The collaboration will focus on helping NASA put more of its vast store of information on the Internet.
NO KID FOR YOU: People who are obese, single or on antidepressants will soon have no chance of adopting a Chinese child, foreign adoption agencies are reporting. Starting May 1, China is imposing new restrictions on foreign adoptions. The move comes as China is inundated with adoption requests from North America and Europe.
THE NEW FOUNDATION: Today, the first steel beams for Freedom Tower were installed at the World Trade Center site. Governor Pataki said, "Today the steel rises, the Freedom Tower rises from the ashes of Sept. 11, and the people of New York and the people of American can be proud." The first steel beam placed had the words "Freedom Tower" on it.
KOREANS SHOWIN' UP AGAIN!: Samsung on Tuesday released a new cell phone, the SCH-V960, touting its unique "optical joystick," which is used for navigating menus, as a "world's first." The phone also has a 2 megapixel camera, GPS and Bluetooth functionality, and a screen that automatically adjusts its brightness based on ambient light levels to conserve battery life. whoop.
KOMODO DRAGONS PT. 2: Dec. 20 (Bloomberg) -- Komodo dragons, the world's largest lizards, are capable of virgin births, scientists said after two female specimens laid fertile eggs without mating. The dragons, the only two sexually mature females in European zoos, laid fertile eggs within a year of each other, U.K. scientists say in tomorrow's edition of the journal Nature. One of them had never been in contact with a male, and the other hadn't mated for at least 2 1/2 years, they said. WEIRD
CALLING YOUR IPODS:As 2006 draws to a close without an Apple-branded cell phone on the market—an announcement Think Secret stated in March would not happen this year—all eyes are on the first half of 2007 for the phone's release, despite no word from Apple on the subject.
Nonetheless, the prospects of Apple entering the phone market, which includes about two billion active consumers worldwide, has Wall Street and investors licking their lips. Together, they've pushed Apple's stock price up more than 50 percent in the last six months.
Thanks Global warming! It's still a bit chilly, so beef it up!

Also, More health stuff!
MEMORY PROBLEMS? EAT OYSTERS! Oysters help improve your mental functioning by supplying much needed zinc.
COLDS? EAT GARLIC! Clear up that stuffy head with garlic. (Remember, garlic lowers cholesterol too.)
COUGHING? USE RED PEPPERS! A substance similar to that found in the cough syrups is also in hot red peppers. Use red (cayenne) pepper with caution, it can irritate your tummy.
BREAST CANCER? EAT WHEAT, BRAN, & CABBAGE! Help to maintain estrogen at healthy levels.
LUNG CANCER? EAT DARK GREEN & ORANGE VEGGIES! A good antidote is beta carotene, a form of Vitamin A found in dark green and orange vegetables.
ULCERS? EAT CABBAGE ALSO! Cabbage contains chemicals that help heal both gastric and duodenal ulcers.
DIARRHEA? EAT APPLES! Grate an apple with its skin, let it turn brown and eat it to cure this condition. (Bananas are good for this ailment as well).
CLOGGED ARTERIES? EAT AVOCADO! Mono-unsaturated fat in avocados lowers cholesterol.
HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE! EAT CELERY & OLIVE OIL! Olive oil has been shown to lower blood pressure. Celery contains a chemical that lowers blood pressure too.
BLOOD SUGAR IMBALANCE? EAT BROCCOLI & PEANUTS! The chromium in broccoli and peanuts helps regulate insulin and blood sugar.
KIWI: Tiny but mighty. This is a good source of potassium, magnesium, Vitamin E and fiber. Its Vitamin C content is twice that of an orange.
APPLES: An apple a day keeps the doctor away? Although an apple has a low Vitamin C content, it has antioxidants which enhance the activity of Vitamin C thereby helping glower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack, and stoke.
STRAWBERRIES: Protective fruit. Strawberries have the highest total antioxidant power among major fruits and protects the body from cancer causing, blood vessels clogging free radicals. Actually, any berry is good for you. They are high in antioxidants and keep us young. Blueberries are the best and very versatile in the health field as they get rid of all the free radicals that invade our bodies.
ORANGES: Sweetest medicine. Eating 2-4 oranges a day may help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent and dissolve kidney stones as well as lessen the risk of colon cancer.
WATERMELON: Coolest thirst quencher. Composed of 92% water, it is also packed with a giant dose of glutathione which helps boost our immune system. They are also a key source of lycopene - the cancer fighting oxidant. Other nutrients found in watermelon are Vitamin C and potassium. Watermelon also has natural SPF sources that keep our skin healthy, protecting it from SUV rays.
GUAVA: Top awards for Vitamin C. The clear winner for their high Vitamin C content. Guava is also rich in fiber which helps prevent constipation.
PAPAYA: Rich in carotene, this is good for your eyes. (Also good for gas and indigestion.)
TOMATOES: Very good as preventative measure for men. They keep prostate problems from invading their bodies.
