For those that don't know, breast cancer hits close to home... 1.) I've had an aunt succumb to this terrible disease 2.) I've had family die of other types of cancer, and 3.) I work for The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, specifically in the Breast Medical Oncology department.
It took nearly 30 years, more than 100,000 women to gather enough data to determine that those who drink more than three glasses of wine a week, increases the risk of Breast Cancer by 15%. And the more you drink, the greater the risk. But is it cause for alarm? Probably not, because it's also been shown that by drinking red wine you could help reduce the risk of heart disease. Watching the video below may help shed some light, but personally, if it was me, I wouldn't drink it. There are other ways you can prevent heart disease, but with breast cancer, it's not so easy.
Yeah. If I would have done this in the store when I was a child, my ass would be in the meat grinder when I got home. I know, different place, different time. But Geezus, can someone give this kid some Valium please? I would be lucky if I got Garbage Pail Kids. Pokemon, really?
My favorite little puppets, Glove and Boots are back, and this time they're taking on Zombies! Back in July they gave us the ten reasons why they hated facebook, and it was downright hilarious. But since zombies are now ruling television, movie screens, children's books, and almost every form of media, they attended...
1. If Zombie bites you...you become zombie...
2. Zombie will never stop trying to bite you, and
3. If Zombie tries to bite you. Smash his brains!
It was just over two centuries ago that the global population was 1 billion — in 1804. But better medicine and improved agriculture resulted in higher life expectancy for children, dramatically increasing the world population, especially in the West.
As higher standards of living and better health care are reaching more parts of the world, the rates of fertility — and population growth — have started to slow down, though the population will continue to grow for the foreseeable future.
U.N. forecasts suggest the world population could hit a peak of 10.1 billion by 2100 before beginning to decline. But exact numbers are hard to come by — just small variations in fertility rates could mean a population of 15 billion by the end of the century.

Despite the pending troop withdrawals in Iraq and those in Afghanistan between now and 2014, the United States remains a superpower on a scale not seen since the days of the Caesars. With this in mind, the National Post’s Richard Johnson takes a look at the scale of America’s forces.

LOL, I bet the groom was telling himself, "WTF! What the hell did I get myself into?" During the wedding ceremony, the bride receives a text and pulls it out of her bra as she is standing by her soon to be husband. What makes it hilarious is the groom's reaction to the whole thing.This is part of a wedding video I shot in August 2008 at the Mission Beach Women's Club in San Diego, CA. It was otherwise perfectly normal except for this one funny clip of the bride TEXTING just after her dad walked her down the isle! At one point, I noticed her doing it through my lens and I had to pull away form the camera to make certain I was seeing what I thought I was seeing. The minister was busy reading his opening comments and her back was to everyone in attendance. I was the only one to see her. Her dad glanced over at her and then saw me doing a double take and began to laugh out loud! You can see him doing it in the clip. Totally funny!
