Ex-cruise worker files lawsuit against Travolta

(AP) ? A former cruise line worker has filed a federal lawsuit in Los Angeles against John Travolta, accusing the "Pulp Fiction" star of embracing him naked after complaining about neck pain.

The lawsuit was filed June 21 by Fabian Zanzi and seeks unspecified damages.

Zanzi contends Travolta disrobed and held him against his will during a Caribbean cruise three years ago.

The actor was accused recently in another federal lawsuit of groping two masseurs. The case quickly unraveled after Travolta's attorney, Martin Singer, discredited one of the anonymous accusers by showing the actor was across the country on the day of one of the alleged incidents.

Singer did not immediately return a call seeking comment Tuesday from The Associated Press, but earlier, he told City News Service that Zanzi's complaint was "another ludicrous lawsuit with inane claims."

AT&T Jail breaking IPHONE 3gs and upgrading version

They are wrong, the baseband can be preserved or if the phone is old enough, can be updated to iPad baseband and then downgraded back to a unlockable baseband that has functional GPS(iPad BB allows unlock, but breaks GPS). If you don't want to unlock using jailbreak tools, then by all means update, it will not hurt anything and chances are ATT will give you a free unlock if you have completed a two year contract with the phone(call them or use the web chat to ask for a unlock, you provide the phone's IMEI and wait a few days for the email). If you want to be able to unlock using jailbreak tools, you will want to either preserve the BB(I assume you have 05.11.07) using a NO_BB custom IPSW made with Redsn0w or Sn0wbreeze to update with or just update with stock, then if your phone is older than week 28 in 2011 you can flash the iPad BB followed by downgrade from iPad BB to 05.13.04, then jailbreak and install ultrasn0w to unlock.

Only thing to worry about is, if the phone is newer than week 28 of 2011 and you are trying to flash the iPad baseband, it will brick the phone.

Paraguay's leftist president ousted by Congress

ASUNCION (Reuters) - Paraguay's Congress removed President Fernando Lugo from office on Friday after a lightning-quick impeachment that he said was tantamount to a coup but pledged to accept.

Lugo, a silver-haired former Roman Catholic bishop who quit the Church to run for president, was found guilty of mishandling armed clashes over a land eviction in which 17 police and peasant farmers were killed last week.

Lugo's election four years ago on promises he would champion the needs of poor Paraguayans raised high hopes in the landlocked, soy-exporting nation, but his reform agenda stalled due to the opposition's grip on Congress.

Political allies deserted him as criticism mounted over last week's bloodshed in the rural northeast, and the Senate voted 39-4 to oust him on Friday, a day after the lower house set the impeachment proceedings in motion.

"Although the law's been twisted like a fragile branch in the wind, I accept Congress' decision," Lugo said in a sober address on national television, calling for calm among his supporters.

"Paraguay's history has been profoundly wounded," he said, moments before his centrist vice president and political opponent, Federico Franco, was sworn in to complete the last year of his presidency.

Several thousand Lugo supporters gathered outside Congress in the sleepy riverside capital, Asuncion, and tried to break through police lines as the verdict was given.

Police fired tear gas, water cannon and rubber bullets to disperse the crowd. The plaza later emptied out.

The unprecedented speed of the impeachment trial raised concerns among other governments in the region. The leftist presidents of Argentina, Venezuela, Bolivia and Ecuador announced they would not recognize Franco's government.

"What has happened is absolutely illegitimate," Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa told local television.

Argentine President Cristina Fernandez said her country would not "validate the coup" in Paraguay. She also said she was working with Brazil and Uruguay - partners in the Mercosur trade bloc, along with Paraguay - to respond jointly.

Some critics of Lugo's removal have compared it to the ousting of Honduran President Manuel Zelaya in 2009 by that country's army, which acted on a court order that had backing from Congress.

Franco named a new foreign minister and charged him with explaining to governments elsewhere in South America that the impeachment drive was constitutional, albeit "a little quick."

Lugo, 61, vowed to improve the quality of life of low-income Paraguayans when his election ended six decades of rule by the Colorado party in one of South America's poorest and most politically unstable countries.

Paraguay is known regionally for its marijuana crops and as a hub for smuggling and money laundering.

Lugo's backers hoped he would tackle rampant corruption and gaping income inequalities in the nation of 6 million people. He struggled, however, to push reforms including land redistribution to poor peasant farmers through Congress.

A cancer scare and several paternity scandals added to his difficulties and he lost support inside his ruling coalition, culminating in the Liberal Party's decision to turn against him and clear the way for his impeachment.

LIBERAL PARTY DOCTOR TAKES OFFICE

Franco, a doctor and longtime Liberal Party politician, will run the country until a newly elected president takes office in August 2013.

Franco's relationship with Lugo turned sour soon after their alliance defeated the Colorados in the last election.

"This transition that we've started today is within constitutional order and in absolute respect of the law and international treaties," the 49-year-old Franco said as he was sworn in. "In no way does it put universal democratic principals at risk."

Paraguay's constitution only allows one presidential term, so Lugo would have stepped down in just over a year.

Re-election has been banned since the constitution was overhauled following the 1989 fall of General Alfredo Stroessner's brutal 35-year dictatorship.

Some critics accuse Lugo of sympathizing with the peasant farmers who ambushed police officers last week when they went to enforce an eviction order on a farm.

Legislators also accused Lugo of acting meekly to fight a small, violent left-wing group called the Paraguayan People's Army, known by its Spanish initials EPP.

Church leaders urged him to step down to ease tensions, but Lugo said he would face the impeachment rather than resign.

"This is an 'express' coup because (lawmakers) have done it in the wee hours of the night," he said on Thursday.

The last time a Paraguayan leader was impeached was in 1999 when Raul Cubas was accused of failing to fulfill his duties following the murder of the vice president and the killing of seven protesters. Cubas resigned before a verdict was reached.

Grb2 holds powerful molecular signaling pathway in check

Friday, June 22, 2012

Once considered merely a passive link between proteins that matter, Grb2 - pronounced "grab2" - actually lives up to its nickname with its controlling grip on an important cell signaling pathway, scientists at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center report in the June 22 issue of Cell.

"Grb2 is a switch that controls normal signaling through the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR)," said the paper's senior author, John Ladbury, Ph.D., professor in MD Anderson's Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.

"Perhaps the best way to think about it is that Grb2 controls cell homeostasis (stable state) before a growth factor binds to FGFR, activating this molecular pathway," Ladbury said.

In addition to discovering a fundamental aspect of FGFR signaling, the researchers' discovery points to a potential explanation of why genomic alterations found in breast, bladder and gastric cancers and melanoma might promote cancer formation and growth, Ladbury noted.

FGFR has a docking station to receive growth factors on the cell surface, and another internal region that passes the growth factor signal on to proteins inside the cell by attaching phosphate groups to them.

FGFR employs phosphorylation to regulate a number of important processes, including the cell cycle, cell proliferation and migration. When some of these pathways become overactive, they can contribute to cancer growth and survival.

Like "a car idling in neutral" ready to go

Grb2's full name reflects its location: growth factor receptor-bound protein 2. In the great rush of molecular signaling pathway mapping in the 1990s, Ladbury noted that Grb2 was labeled an "adaptor protein," one that has no activity of its own apart from connecting to other proteins.

Mapping ran way ahead of figuring out each protein's function in a signaling pathway, Ladbury said, and scientists are still catching up in that area.

"When you think about it, why would a cell bother to produce a protein that plays only a passive role linking one protein to another?" Ladbury said. He and his colleagues found that's simply not the case with Grb2.

They demonstrated that Grb2 binds to the internal signaling region of FGFR, preventing the receptor from activating other pathways while at the same time allowing a baseline level of phosphorylation of FGFR that isn't strong enough to initiate a signal by recruiting other proteins. This baseline phosphorylation occurs without a growth factor activating the receptor and only happens if Grb2 is bound to FGFR.

"You can think of this like a car that's idling in neutral," Ladbury said. "Its engine is running but it's not going anywhere. "

But it is primed for action, and the team found that this idling version of FGFR is more likely to attract an external growth factor that triggers full signaling. They also found when the growth factor FGF docks at the receptor and activates it:

  • FGFR then attaches a phosphate group to the Grb2 that was holding it in check.
  • Phosphorylated Grb2 disconnects from the receptor.
  • With its internal signaling domain now clear of Grb2, FGFR can change the shape of the domain so it can signal to other proteins by phosphorylating them.

"The growth factor essentially slots that idling car into gear, and off it goes," Ladbury said. Having FGFR warming up before activation appears to be a more efficient way for a cell to activate the pathway than starting from a state of zero phosphorylation.

There's reason to believe this mechanism may apply to other tyrosine kinase receptor proteins, a class of receptors including FGFR that activate signaling cascades by phosphorylating other proteins, Ladbury noted. Additional research will be required to sort out that possibility.

Potential role in cancer suppression

Their findings provide a possible mechanism to explain why genomic deletions found in bladder and gastric cancer and point mutations in melanoma might promote those cancers.

In each case, the portion of the gene that encodes FGFR's internal signaling domain is affected. If that domain is abnormal, Grb2 would not be able to bind it."That could lead to the FGFR pathway being turned on constantly," Ladbury said.

FGFR launches the MAPK signaling pathway, which is known to promote cancer when abnormally activated. Ladbury and colleagues have identified a potential tumor-suppressing role for Grb2.

The team developed and confirmed the relationship between Grb2 and FGFR via cell biology experiments, biophysics and structural analysis."I'm extremely proud of this group, which can cover all of those bases and provide a full explanation of a system," Ladbury noted.

The Ladbury group continues to investigate:

  • Whether cancer cells are predisposed to have abnormal levels of Grb2 , which would affect the control of FGFR signaling.
  • How disruption of the cycle of Grb2 binding and release leads to cancer.
  • The mechanism by which Grb2 is phosphorylated by FGFR.

Lindsay Lohan Driving Ban During ?Liz & Dick?

Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan reportedly isn?t allowed to drive while she currently films her role in the Lifetime movie ?Liz & Dick.? The movie’s production has also come under fire after the Parent Trap star fell unconscious due to her demanding film schedule.   Actress Lindsay Lohan, who is attempting to make yet another comeback, has racked up so many DUI?s it is said to be in her best interest to sustain from getting behind the wheel until production on the Elizabeth Taylor biopic, ?Liz & Dick?, ends, in accordance with an insurance policy taken out by the production. The policy is in part said to ensure that Lohan doesn?t pull any of her usual antics, holding up filming on the TV movie.? The actress’ recent fender bender where she crashed her Porsche into a semi truck was said to be a red flag.? The rule, according to TMZ, was put in place by the insurance policy. The production has also caught the attention of the labor organizations International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) and SAG-AFTRA, after Lohan was found unconscious this past June 15th as well as after multiple reports of exhaustion of both cast and crew. “The [...]

6 places to save money on your monthly budget | Credit Solutions

Get the best Financial Tips at Credit Visionary

The most difficult part of managing finances for many is to make a monthly budget and follow it. However it is an essential part of personal finance management and if conducted in the right manner it can get you out of your financial crunch sooner. All you need to do is to make a budget plan that is manageable and can be easily followed. You also need to know the places where you can save some amount of money to pay for other expense.

Here is a list of some of such places where you can save money on your monthly budget:

  1. Grocery shopping: The main portion of your monthly budget is allotted to food and drinks.? If you are buying them from a mall or high end shop then you might end up paying more as no discounts are given in such shops. If at the other hand you get your monthly grocery shopping items from a retail shop where you get discounts or points which you can later dispose for other item, it can be profitable.
  2. Clothes and designer wear: If you have a habit of buying clothes on a monthly basis try and regulate that habit if possible. Extend your shopping spree to 2-3 months. If at all you need to buy them make sure that you buy them from shops where sale offers or discounts are available.
  3. Television and cable costs: You may have a specific plan covering your television and cable cost. But it will be a good idea to check other good offers from different services providers in your area. Sometimes due to the completion level many packages are offered to customers that include some best deals at cheap prices. Try and keep information about such deals and make use of them to save some bucks.
  4. Telephone bills: Sometime your phone bills can make you tensed about managing the budget properly. In order to get relieved take note of the fact that you do not misuse the technology. Use them for emergency needs only and for other conversations you can shift to voice chats or email chats. It is also important that in case of cell phones you utilize all the free minutes and messages offered instead of wasting the landline bills.
  5. Financial transaction cost: If you do not keep track of your transactions properly some of your money will be spend on meeting transaction cost of banks and other financial institutions. Sometimes the monthly fees are not even required as many free checking offers are available nowadays. If you do not have knowledge about such offers you will be paying more. So be updated with such information to save some money.
  6. Credit Card Bills: One of the primary reasons why many get into debts is their expense on credit cards. You should try and avoid buying on credit cards as much as possible. If you have credit card debts pay them within the due date so that you do not incur additional expenses. Pay in cash whenever possible. This way you will not spend more.

Le Mars Daily Sentinel: Obituaries: Lloyd H. Wieck (06/19/12)

Lloyd H. Wieck, 88, of Sioux City, formerly of Hinton, died Saturday, June 16, 2012, at the Sunrise Retirement Community in Sioux City.

Lloyd Henry Wieck was born June 21, 1923, on the family farm north of Hinton, in Plymouth Township to Henry and Jessie (Blackmore) Wieck. He attended country school near his home. Lloyd was united in marriage to Geraldine "Gerri" Trometer on April 2, 1943 at St. John's Lutheran Church in Le Mars.

Lloyd and Gerri farmed and raised cattle and hogs on the family farm until 1975 when they moved to Hinton. Lloyd had also worked at Swift & Co. in Sioux City from the late 1940s until retirement in 1975.

Lloyd enjoyed fishing with family and friends. He had served on church boards and volunteered wherever he could through the years. He had been a faithful blood donor for over 28 years.

Horse Supplement Plus The Trouble With Pet Abuse | Love My Pets ...

A horse supplement with the proper care can help your abused horse. Mistreated animals, regardless if it?s a horse, dog, or cat, have special requirements. One superb way to build a pet?s confidence is via click-and-treat teaching (a.k.a. ?clicker teaching?). In this type of training, the pet is ?encouraged? by having the chance to try to make you click and thus receive a reward. Once pets see how the game is played out, they might choose the ?activity? over the incentive. Think of click-and-treat teaching as a means of non-verbal communication. Signals or even voice cues can be included at a later phase.

Maintain your pet?s basic biological requirements by giving aerobic exercise and a healthy diet. Canines need 20 to 30 minutes of jogging exercise (not simply strolling) daily. Cats need a chance to release energy in explosive jolts to dissolve their predatory traits. A tired pet is a great and happy pet! As soon as appropriate background measures are in place, plus the pet is on the mend, it is time to think about active treatment through desensitization. Desensitization is actually the behavioral equivalent of homeopathy: A bit of what ails (step-wise method to feared person or situation) is used under close control to accomplish some good.

Whether the ?little bit? requires limited and controlled contact with unknown people or being left alone depends on the specific requirements of the animal. Desensitization is best carried out in conjunction with counter-conditioning ? a process where animals? fear hints are connected with a positive (or, at the very least, different) reaction. The typical strategy is to replace a previously fearful response with an appetitive reply using delicious meals as the conditioner.

With regards to training, as the saying goes, ?Art as well as science aren?t enough; tolerance is the fundamental stuff.? This is especially true with regards to rehabilitating formerly abused animals. Such animals present the greatest obstacle, since they?re not blank slates for inscription but instead have already been subjected to un-erasable regrettable learning. Nevertheless, this is not to say that incredible turnarounds can?t be achieved ? for they could ? only that trainers must work hard with such animals to superimpose brand new learning that will submerge earlier undesirable learning experiences.

For horses specifically, each horse must be examined as an individual and you should not expect every animal in the barn to maintain his or her weight with everyone having the same food. Each is different, metabolisms are different, age groups, build, sex and all those elements come into play and must be taken into consideration when planning your feeding schedules. A young horse will need different feed as compared to an older horse that you?re trying to put weight on. It?s exactly the same with people ? you can?t eat the same thing at 50 years old that you could when you were sixteen years old. Pregnant mares need more proteins and feed since they?re feeding two. After the foal is born they need high protein grain because they are nursing and the baby need to have plenty of milk.

A horse supplement together with care can do miracles for your horse. A young horse requires higher protein feed to grow. This along with plenty of room for exercise creates a proper, happy strong child. Because baby horses grow quickly ? be sure you check their halter frequently as they quickly grow to fill them. That is something that is seen quite frequently because babies are not handled enough and they quickly grow out of their halters. The trouble being that the halters are not changed or expanded to handle their growing frames. At times the halter will need to be taken out by a Doctor and you?ll end up having a nasty scar. The horse might not want you close to his head with great reason.

Pakistan court disqualifies prime minster from office

Pakistan's Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani?was disqualified by the country's top court and declared ineligible to hold office Tuesday.

On April 26, judges convicted Gilani in contempt of court proceedings for refusing to open a corruption probe against President Asif Ali Zardari. The court said Tuesday that Gilani should not have held office since that verdict was announced.


The April ruling was previously questioned by the speaker of the National Assembly, who decided that the court order did not cast any doubt on the premier's right to hold office.

Images of daily life, political pursuits, religious rites and deadly violence.

But the speaker's decision was struck down Tuesday by a bench of judges headed by the Chief Justice of Pakistan, Iftikhar Chaudhry.

After his contempt of court conviction in April, Prime Minister Gilani had 30 days within which he could file an appeal. He failed to do so, arguing that the President enjoyed immunity from prosecution -- but his failure to file an appeal rendered the earlier conviction final, and disqualifed him from office.

Gilani had the opportunity to challenge the conviction legally, but chose instead to stand on principle.?

"Since no appeal was filed (against the April 26 conviction) ... therefore Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani stands disqualifed as a member of the Majlis-e-Shoora (parliament)," Chaudhry said in a packed courtroom, according to Reuters.

"He has also ceased to be the prime minister of Pakistan ... the office of the prime minister stands vacant," the judge added.

Gilani's lawyer, Fawad Chaudhry, told The Associated Press that only parliament could dismiss the prime minister.?

The Supreme Court ruling came in response to petitions filed against Gilani for not standing down after the conviction.?

Emergency meetings
In their written order Tuesday, judges reminded Zardari that he is "required to take necessary steps under the Constitution to ensure continuation of the democratic process."

Senior leaders of Gilani's party -- the PPP (Pakistan People's Party) -- were reportedly in emergency meetings Tuesday. The party does enjoy a majority in parliament to elect their chosen successor.

The civilian government has been lurching from crisis to crisis for the majority of the last year, in what many saw as a power struggle between the powerful army, judiciary, and government.

Tuesday's action is likely to throw the government into further turmoil, as they struggle to become the first civilian government to complete a full five-year term before the scheduled elections in February 2013. The instability could lead to early elections being called.?

A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Pakistani leaders are so consumed with keeping their government stable and remaining in power, they're unable to devote the necessary attention nor make any bold decisions to re-engage with the U.S. and get the alliance back on track.

The overland NATO supply lines which run through Pakistan have been closed since November, shuttered in protest about a U.S. cross-border strike in which 24 Pakistani soldiers were killed.

A U.S. team recently spent weeks in Pakistan, negotiating new rates to re-open those supply lines, but left without any resolution.?

Reuters and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Romney says Michigan win would hand him presidency

FRANKENMUTH, Mich. (AP) ? Now the likely Republican presidential nominee, Mitt Romney was back home in Michigan on Tuesday ? where, he says, the "trees are the right height."

"I'm going to win Michigan, with your help!" Romney told the crowd gathered outside the sprawling Bavarian Inn Lodge in this resort town. "If I am lucky enough to be elected president, I'll be the first president in American history to have been born in Michigan."

Flying home on his campaign plane Monday night, Romney joked about a past comment that drew some ridicule ? and repeated it for his traveling press corps. "When we land, look around, and you'll see the trees are the right height," he said, to laughter. Asked if carrying the state in November would have special meaning, Romney said: "If I win in Michigan, then I become the president, and that would mean a lot to me personally."

Romney is the former governor of Massachusetts, but he was born in Michigan and raised in the suburbs outside Detroit. His father, George Romney, ran a car company ? American Motors Corp. ? and went on to run the state as governor.

In 1968, George Romney failed to win the Republican presidential nomination, a prize his son is set to be officially awarded at the Republican National Convention in August. It's been a long journey that began nearly six years ago, when Mitt Romney launched his unsuccessful bid for the 2008 GOP nod.

Michigan is one of several states that could make the difference in November. It's not on his campaign's list of top targets ? that's reserved for what the campaign sees as traditionally Republican states like Virginia and North Carolina and swing states like Ohio and Florida.

But it's one of a number of Rust Belt states President Barack Obama won in 2008 and where Romney's campaign team sees an opportunity.

"There's another level of states that are all states that Obama won last time," said deputy campaign manager Katie Packer Gage, a Michigan native. "And he won't win if he doesn't win them again."

Romney faces an uphill climb in Michigan. There's a strong Democratic base in Detroit, and he's already struggling to explain his opposition to the federal bailout that saved General Motors and Chrysler.

Romney started Tuesday in Frankenmuth, where he participated in a round-table discussion with small-business owners and then held an outdoor rally. He criticized Obama's energy policies, but steered clear of mentioning the bailouts.

Romney's campaign has been filled with reminders of his Michigan roots. George Romney's photo was tacked to a wall in the campaign bus during the primaries. Supporters come to campaign rallies armed with Romney '68 memorabilia and stories about volunteering on his father's presidential campaign.

The Republican presidential challenger also has talked about his love for Vernors, a distinctive ginger ale that's popular in Michigan and has strong carbonation that sometimes prompts sneezing. When he campaigned here during the primary, Romney was ridiculed for affectionately saying that in Michigan, "the trees are the right height."

Then, there are the cars ? the product of the industry that's driven Michigan's culture and economy. Romney loves them, and easily recalls exactly what he was driving during memorable moments in his life. On the campaign trail, he frequently mentions the Rambler, the car his father seized on as a way to revive a struggling American Motors.

In Troy, Ohio, on Sunday, Romney climbed into the front seat of an immaculately maintained 1961 Rambler owned by 20-year-old Michael Scheib. "I've got a '63, but it's not in as good condition," Romney told Scheib as the young man took his burger order at the local hamburger shop.

"Brings back memories," he told reporters afterward.

Still, cars caused Romney some problems before the Feb. 28 Michigan primary. During one event, Romney mentioned that his wife, Ann, drives "a couple of Cadillacs," a comment that helped paint him as out of touch with Americans struggling in a bad economy.

And while Romney's opposition to federal support for GM and Chrysler wasn't a big issue in the GOP primary, Democrats continue to criticize him for it. Romney has struggled to clarify his position, saying that he supported the managed bankruptcy that eventually restructured GM. Still, he was opposed to using federal money, and attacked the bailouts during the primary campaign.

There are already signs he plans to soften his tone. "He's going to acknowledge, as he has, that President Obama and he ultimately shared the same goal, which was to see the auto industry survive and thrive," said Gage, the deputy campaign manager. "They just had different ways of going about it. He's pleased to see that he does seem to be getting stronger."

Romney steered clear of the issue during his early events Tuesday. Instead, he and his wife told stories about growing up in Michigan.

"People don't know, like, how wonderful it is to be from Michigan," Ann Romney said, to cheers from the crowd. She held up her hand, as Michiganders do, to help outsiders understand its mitten-shaped geography. "I love coming here and showing the hand."
