Registered nurse Dotty Nygard (D) will challenge Rep. Jeff Denham (R). “She works in an emergency room at Sutter Health in Sacramento and a member of the influential, progressive California Nurses Assn. Nygard said she was drawn to the race because of attempts to repeal” and Denham’s vote to scrap “the Affordable Care Act.” (Los Angeles Times)

Businessman Josh Harder (D) is also in the race for the Democratic nomination for the district, which Hillary Clinton won in 2016.

Gender disparities in diabetes and coronary heart disease medication among patients with type 2 diabetes: results from the DIANA study.

Author information

Division of Clinical Epidemiology and Aging Research, German Cancer Research Center, Im Neuenheimer Feld 581, D-69120, Heidelberg, Germany.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the most common long-term complications in people with type 2 diabetes. We analyzed whether or not gender differences exist in diabetes and CHD medication among people with type 2 diabetes.

The study was based on data from the baseline examination of the DIANA study, a prospective cohort study of 1,146 patients with type 2 diabetes conducted in South-West Germany. Information on diabetes and CHD medication was obtained from the physician questionnaires. Bivariate and multivariate analyses using logistic regression were employed in order to assess associations between gender and prescribed drug classes.

In total, 624 men and 522 women with type 2 diabetes with a mean age of 67.2 and 69.7 years, respectively, were included in this analysis. Compared to women, men had more angiopathic risk factors, including smoking, alcohol consumption and worse glycemic control, and had more often a diagnosed CHD. Bivariate analyses showed higher prescription of thiazolidinediones and oral combination drugs as well as of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, calcium channel blockers and aspirin in men than in women. After full adjustment, differences between men and women remained significant only for ACE inhibitors (OR=1.44; 95%-confidence interval (CI): 1.11-1.88) and calcium channel blockers (OR=1.42, 95%-CI: 1.05-1.91).

These findings contribute to current discussions on gender differences in diabetes care. Men with diabetes are significantly more likely to receive oral combination drugs, ACE inhibitors and calcium channel blockers in the presence of coronary heart disease, respectively. Our results suggest, that diabetic men might be more thoroughly treated compared to women. Further research is needed to focus on reasons for these differences mainly in treatment of cardiovascular diseases to improve quality of care.

Segment Two: Glaciers Carve the Land

This video segment introduces students to glaciation and the landforms produced by moving ice. Although continental glaciers are mentioned, most of the video is devoted to alpine glaciation. Film footage from Alaska and Banff National Park in Canada provides students with a firsthand look at active glaciers, ice movement and results of erosion. A walk through Montana’s Rock Creek Canyon introduces students to features left by a retreating glacier. Spectacular views in Yosemite Valley show students the power of moving ice.

Stars line up for Gap Festival

Goring & Streatley's four-day celebration of arts

Trish Lee

giles brandreth

THE Gap Festival hits Goring & Streatley from Thursday to Sunday this week, with a line-up of big names that includes top soul singer Mica Paris, queen of crime fiction Val McDermid, antiques expert Eric Knowles, writer and broadcaster Gyles Brandreth, celebrity gardener Joe Swift and the innovative Pop-up Opera, alongside a  feast of workshops, talks, art trails, comedy and music of all kinds.

Queen of UK soul Mica Paris will headline the music bill, performing songs from jazz legend Ella Fitzgerald in the festival marquee on the Saturday. And bestselling crime fiction writer Val McDermid should keep festivalgoers on the edge of their seats with her show Killing People for Fun and Profit – spilling the beans about her writing, her inspiration and the fatal attraction of crime fiction. Dubbed the Queen of Crime, she has sold over 15 million books to date across the globe and is translated into over 30 languages. She is perhaps best-known for her Wire in the Blood series, featuring clinical psychologist Dr Tony Hill, which was adapted for television starring Robson Green.  On coming to the festival she says: 'This may be a hotbed of murder thanks to Morse and Midsomer, but it's time Goring and Streatley emerged from the cocoon of cosy crime and confronted the dark realities of Tartan Noir. Though I do have to confess that it was Agatha Christie's The Murder at the Vicarage that first turned me on to crime.' (Christie lived near Wallingford and is buried in Cholsey).

Antiques expert Eric Knowles  brings his one man show What’s it Worth? The Bigger Picture,  a witty and entertaining look at the world of antiques.  The audience are invited to bring along their heirlooms and treasures for on-stage discussion.

Joe Swift is a familiar gardening face, as a regular presenter on BBC Gardeners World since 1998. He also anchors The BBC coverage of The Chelsea Flower show as well as other RHS shows and several BBC gardening series over the years. He’ll be talking about creating a Chelsea garden. Pop-Up Opera will perform a Mozart double bill of Der Schauspieldirektor and Bastien und Bastienne, two delicious one-act comedies in which a pair of actresses battle to be the prima donna and a pair of lovers tease and test their feelings for each other. The inimitable Gyles Brandreth celebrates all things theatrical his new one-man show Break a Leg! – a dazzling afternoon of wit, wisdom, high drama, low comedy and hilarious name-dropping.

Sit back and listen or take to the dance floor with authentic swing music from the 20s and 30s played by the Pasadena Roof Orchestra.

If you haven’t got tickets for The Lightyears gig, you’re too late – the indie band of local lads who’ve  made their mark on the music scene have  already sold out.

There’ll also be comedy with Harriet Braine, Science Oxford with their show  Fire!,  an art trail with local artists opening their studios and a visual arts exhibition to include textile art for the first time.    Gardens and gardening feature on Friday as Joe Swift is joined by “flower grower’s flower grower” Rachel Siegfried’s masterclass on creating gorgeous hand-tied bouquets and a local gardening Experts Question Time with a panel that includes Claire Hastings, Rob Jones and  National Trust head gardener Tim Martin.

Of course, there will be more music as well as children’s events, culminating in a fabulous family day on Festival Sunday.

Our Library is one of the best undergraduate college libraries in Cambridge (when the College was founded women were not allowed to use the main University Library, so it had to be well-stocked!).

Together, the original and beautiful Grade II* listed Victorian Yates Thompson library and the award-winning new Horner Markwick extension house over 90,000 books and journals, and provide working space and computing facilities for students. The collection is kept as relevant, up-to-date and useful as possible by the annual purchase of over 1,000 new titles to support undergraduate study in all subjects, and Directors of Studies and students can suggest new purchases. The Library, along with most of the College, is WiFi-enabled, meaning that you can access the University online resources wherever you choose to work.

Newnham College library services are provided by the College’s wholly-owned subsidiary company, Newnham College Library Company Limited.

The Dream of Playing World Cup Motivated Us, Says Rani Rampal

Nov 07, 2017 07:07 PM IST Hockey Hockey

Asia Cup winning captain Rani Rampal said, "none of the current crop of players has ever been to the World Cup, and it was a dream for all of us to play the tournament. So that spurred us on. And Asia Cup was our last chance to qualify on merit." India's savior in the finals, goalkeeper Savita said,"When the coach has confidence on you, there is no way that you can do any wrong. He just asked me to stick to the basics, and treat the finals like a practice session only."

Countdown To Elections Results

During an obnoxious appearance on the Wednesday edition of HLN’s S.E. Cupp Unfiltered, CNN chief White House correspondent Jim Acosta opened up and showcased his true disdain for Trump supporters after they booed and heckled him at a rally the night before. According to Acosta, when he was surrounded by those Trump supporters in Tampa Bay, Florida, “Honestly, it felt like we weren't in America anymore. I don't know how to put it any more plainly than that.”

Reacting on Thursday morning’s CNN Newsroom to Samantha Bee’s jumbled apology the night prior for calling First Daughter Ivanka Trump the c-word, CNN political commentator and HLN host S.E. Cupp took Bee to task for her apology being “couched in like a dozen different codicils” and, worst of all, “virtue-signaling” without a heartfelt apology to Ivanka herself.

To begin Thursday’s edition of HLN’s Unfiltered, host S.E. Cupp walked her viewers through how the liberal media’s double standard for punishing vile comments works. Between Roseanne Barr, Keith Olbermann, Joy Reid, and now Samantha Bee, there were a plethora of examples for her to choose from. But her most stern and forceful condemnation was reserved for ESPN and their parent company Disney for hiring Olbermann despite his membership in what she called the “misogynists’ club.”

During Wednesday’s S.E. Cupp Unfiltered, CNN senior media reporter Brian Stelter and HLN host S.E. Cupp bought into Stahl’s questionable claims and used them to bash the President as a beacon to authoritarian dictators the world over. “So what I've been saying for 18 months is confirmed,” Cupp self-righteously declared. “President Trump's war on the media is intentional and the goal is to create confusion and sow distrust.”

The liberal media made fools out of themselves Wednesday as nearly every major news outlet rushed to breathlessly report that President Trump had called all illegal immigrants to the United States “animals.” Of course, the glaring problem with their claims was that they were totally false. And despite the fact the media had to issue reams of retractions and corrections, NBC Nightly News and Spanish-language networks Univision and Telemundo kept up the charade Thursday evening.

Just two days after entertainment magazine Variety published former NBC correspondent Linda Vester’s sexual harassment allegations against NBC legend Tom Brokaw, more than 60 women from the network signed their names to a letter defending his character. But on Tuesday, it was revealed that NBC had put tremendous pressure on the women to sign the letter. On Unfiltered that evening, host S.E. Cupp ripped into them for rushing to his defense as two additional women have spoken out.

Normally, HLN’s S.E. Cupp Unfiltered can be counted on to push back against the liberal media when they get stirred up into one of their nonsensical frenzies with the most recent case being the gun control debate. But on Tuesday, Cupp parroted the CNN company line by condemning Sinclair Broadcast Group as nothing more than state-owned propaganda. She even took it a step farther and compared them to Heaven’s Gate suicide cult.

Recently, Connecticut Congresswoman Elizabeth Esty was exposed for shielding and supporting her former chief of staff, Tony Baker after he was accused of sexual harassment and threatening the life of another staffer. This story was first published online late last Thursday and appeared on the front page of The Washington Post the following day. The liberal major network news outlets (ABC, CBS, and NBC) ignored those revelations then, and on Monday they ignored Esty announcing that she would not seek re-election.

HLN conservative S.E. Cupp has been on a roll this week with her show (S.E. Cupp Unfiltered) drawing attention to the media’s massive liberal bias. First, a CNN host admitted he let an anti-gun teen get away with falsehoods, then she and her panel tore into the media for unfairly smearing Trump’s recent hires as unqualified talking heads. On Thursday, she ratcheted up the criticism by calling them out for being hostile to conservative views and hiring ones whose principles were squishy.

In what appeared to be a shot across the bow of their parent network CNN on Tuesday, the panel on HLN’s S.E. Cupp Unfiltered slammed media outlets who discredited President Trump’s new White House hires because they spent time on cable news. “So is the media smearing the President's pick just to beat up on Trump or are these TV talking heads actually dangerous,” conservative host S.E. Cupp wondered.

It’s not often that CNN media reporter Brian Stelter is honest about his blatant biases when it comes to politics, just take his assertions about the President’s mental fitness and his denials of making such connections. But during an appearance on the Monday edition of HLN’s S.E. Cupp Unfiltered, the Reliable Sources host appeared to let it slip that he let radical anti-gun activist David Hogg get away with making false claims about the guns and the NRA during a February 25 interview on his show.

‘Tomorrowland’ takes over ‘SportsCenter’ set

ESPN‘s “SportsCenter,” as part of an advertising deal cut with corporate cousin Disney, will air a special commercial that features an ESPN anchor becoming part of the flick “Tomorrowland.”

In the piece, which will air right before the show goes to a normal commercial break, anchor Jay Harris is shown walking along minding his own business when he notices a pin on the studio floor.

Touching it transports him to “Tomorrowland” — or at least the Tomorrowland he can see from the “SportsCenter” set.

The whole pin-as-a-transporter element is a key plot element in the film, which also provided additional 3D footage used in the spot.

ESPN is quick to point out that it isn’t trying to trick viewers — the segment is placed right where you might normally find a “broad to you by” announcer.

Indeed, an off-screen voice says “SportsCenter is brought to you by Tomorrowland” toward the end of the spot, which concludes using a much more traditional movie trailer card that includes the credit block.

How many more guns and bullets lie off the road—unseen, hidden but ready for use. And the columns of people in white civilian clothing trudging along the road, cheering and waving South Korean flags. The straight young men with quick eyes. Were they In enemy uniform only a. few days .ago and shooting at allied forces? Are they not, perhaps, the same ones who snipe at night at allied bivouacs? Who knows? One cheering, flag- waving crowd of Koreans bore down • on a British column the other day. To a man they denounced Communism roundly. But a South Korean officer, went about his business—and . picked out 30 Red Korean soldiers. And how many more, like these 1 ''civilians," are roaming free, knowing where guns and bullets are hidden? In places the road Is deserted; In Mothers it is packed with men and weapons moving north. In rear areas the movement if KS rapid as the road permits. In forward areas It is tense. The enemy—not the road—sets the speed of advance ... nnd sometimes retreat. 'The road shows itself even where tt cannot be seen, around the curve and over the hill. A thin,.powdery column of dust hangs In the cold sharp air, marking the route. The dust, clogs the throat and reddens the countryside. It lays a thin, red- dish-grey film on everything. It is a. poor road, a miserable road ' by American standards. . It is a road of threat, dangerous »nd menacing to the men who must travel it. Like a prisoner marking ; off.on a calendar the expiring days of his sentence, Americans mark ,.• off the miles they gain dally toward : the border. It Is a road of promise, a beacon to peace. At the end of this road to the border, the doughboys believe, lies the end of the Korean war.

There will probably be a blowup . over this when the list of campaign contributors Is made public after election. Reasons for big money donations to the Democrats are fairly obvious. Regardless of who wins the 1050 elections, the Democratic executive ; departments will be In control in Washington for another two years. It is .with these departments that big business must do business So they feed the kitty of the party In power, even though they don't believe in its political platform.

The September toll was 3,100, an Increase of five per cent over September, 1949. One of the main reasons given by the council for the Increase was the big boost In automobile production.

'North Korea wastes millions on rockets while people starve'

United States America,Defence/Security, Sat, 14 Apr 2012 IANS

Washington, April 14 (IANS/RIA Novosti) US President Barack Obama criticised the North Korean leadership Saturday for spending millions of dollars on rockets "that don't work", while the country's population is "starving".

"They make all these investments, tens of millions of dollars, in rockets that don't work at a time when their people are starving, literally," the US president said in an interview with the Spanish-language Telemundo TV channel.

The Unha-3 rocket - which North Korea said would put a satellite into orbit - was launched from Cholsan, a coastal town in the country's northwest, in the early hours of Friday.

The US, South Korea and Japan and other countries observing the launch said the rocket, launched to mark the 100th anniversary of the birth of the nation's late founding leader Kim Il-sung, crashed into the Yellow Sea shortly after blastoff.

"Oviously, this is an area of deep concern," he said.

"It's a clear violation of the UN Security council resolutions and what this has done is further isolate them and made it more difficult for them to focus on what they should be focusing on, which is feeding their own people."

"I think it's important to know that they've been trying to launch missiles like this for over a decade now and they don't seem to be real good at it," Obama added.

The US president said Washington and its partners would "continue to keep the pressure" on the Communist state.

The White House condemned Friday's launch, despite the failure. It has also put on hold the delivery of 240,000 tonnes of food it agreed to provide in exchange for Pyongayng's promise to suspend its nuclear activities and long-range missile tests.

A State Department spokesperson said Friday the "door does remain open for engagement, or that we're prepared to engage constructively with North Korea".

"But as we've said many times, we're not going to reward bad behaviour with engagement," Mark Toner added.

NHH takes measures for a better student environment

NHH By Linda Nøstbakken, Therese Sverdrup, Øystein Thøgersen

6 June 2018 08:25

NHH takes measures for a better student environment

In recent weeks, the environment at the Norwegian School of Economics (NHH) has been criticized in Dagens Næringsliv's columns. The subsequent debate has been difficult, but also informative.

Difficult because we are very committed to ensuring that all students and employees are experiencing a great study and work environment, and stories that show that many do not feel that way is hard to read. However, the debate is also difficult because in many cases the media draws a picture of NHH, our students and our employees, which we do not recognize.

We acknowledge that we have students who experience the NHH student environment as exclusive and bad. We have referred to NHH's satisfaction survey, not to hide the challenges, but to try to convey a more nuanced image of the situation.

We know that not all students find a place in the social life on campus, and this is the reason why our new strategy promotes the goal of broadening our recruitment efforts to increase the diversity among both students and employees. The process to open up and make the procedures for admission into student groups more transparent started long time ago.

Nevertheless, the stories of students who feel excluded have surprised us. Perhaps should this not have been surprising to us, because the world has changed dramatically in recent years. Today, everyone is on social media, we share what we do and with whom we hang out, and we like and comment on what others do. Social media thus reinforces the feeling of being outside. Not only do you stand outside a group, but you also feel that this is visible to everyone else.

For these reasons, the debate has been very instructive to us. We cannot lean on old measures; the new reality of our students requires new approaches. Due to the seriousness of the problem, we take concrete measures immediately. With a clear objective that everyone should find their place and experience a good environment at NHH, we are working hard on a series of specific measures:

  • We clarify what is harassment and our reporting channels and routines. We have worked a lot on this since early fall, and the recent debate shows that it is important that we strengthen our efforts and that we to an even greater extent clarify what is acceptable and unacceptable behavior.
  • We develop guidelines for behavior at NHH (‘code of conduct’) in collaboration with NHHS. In the next few weeks, we will try to involve everyone at NHH to come up with and discuss such rules. We believe and hope that an inclusive and interactive process around this will contribute to a common understanding of what is acceptable behavior both face-to-face and in social media.
  • We have started working with the student association on specific measures we can take to ensure that admission into closed student groups follows an open process with clear and reasonable rules. The goal is that as many as possible get involved, contribute to and benefit from a good and inclusive student environment. We expect to have new initiatives in place already from fall.
  • We take steps to reduce unhealthy exam stress and pressure to achieve good grades. We offer courses in stress management, and we focus on these issues already in our first meeting with new students during the welcome week. The goal is to create a mastery climate rather than by a climate characterized by rivalry and competition.
  • We have started a review of our course portfolio, focusing on strengthening and clarifying knowledge about sustainability and responsible management. We will balance analytical skills with cooperation, diversity and soft skills.
  • We change the format of the welcome week for new students in August. We include more activities that are educational, focusing on collaboration and getting to know other new students in an academic setting, and getting more interaction in alcohol-free situations, such as a common breakfast every morning. Our main goals are to increase the number of meeting points between the new students to help them make new friends, and to trigger their academic curiosity from day one.
  • We have started a thorough review of our routines for use and access to the different rooms in the Basement at NHH, where many student groups have their own rooms. To have access to these rooms, we require that each group complies with NHH's rules and take efforts to contribute to a safe and good student environment. Individual students participating in activities in the basement should feel safe and the general safety and emergency preparedness must be high.
  • The management team will establish its own permanent contact point with externally recruited master students in order for their perspectives to be heard. This also applies to international students. In addition, we specifically work to improve the integration of international students, such as by strengthening the mentoring program for this group.

We are grateful that we have dedicated and courageous students who share their stories and shed light on important challenges for NHH. We take this seriously, and hope and believe the above measures, along with our ongoing work for a diverse and inclusive environment, will mean that students will meet an even better NHH when they return after the summer break.

Even though Wintingo offer so many different games my favorite are bingo ones; Mega Bingo, Bingo Resort, Electro, Mayan and Samba bingo are just a few and they are for me the best instant bingo games and I just can’t get enough of them.

WinTingo is all about Scratch Cards, although you will find all kind of slots, Table games, Video Poker, even Bingo. Never the less, with a 1 win in every 3 cards, this is a place I wanted to try my luck. They even claim there's a 95.5% payout rate, so I naturally had to give it a shot. I know there are a lot of skeptics, but check this out: you can play all of their games free! Practice your heart out, and then head out and win.
One of the games I enjoyed the most was Battlestar Galactica Online slot, and not only because I'm TV show fan.
They base their promotion on cashback, which is not bad at all, so you get a 65% Cashback on your first deposit, and a 30% Cashback on every following deposit. They call this Cashpay, a system where you get real cash right on your account in real time, a cashback bonus that you can actually withdraw, which is not something you can find often on other sites.

Goa Freaks begins in the mid 1970s and tells of Cleo’s love affair with Goa, a resort in India where the Freaks (hippies) of the world converge to partake in a heady bohemian lifestyle. To finance their astounding appetites for cocaine, heroin, and hashish, the Freaks spend each monsoon season acting as drug couriers, and soon cleo is running her own “scams” in Canada, Australis, and the United States.

During my visit to Goa I stayed on Palolem Beach and visited the other beaches from there. Beyond the beaches Old Goa and Panaji are highlights.

NYC - The Official Guide

Harlem LGBTQ Neighborhood Guide

Harlem has long been a sanctuary for the LGBTQ community. As early as 1869, there were notorious masquerade parties held here, which gave way to popular drag balls in the 1920s and ’30s—part of the so-called Pansy Craze. Now the neighborhood has opened its arms even wider as young members of the LGBTQ community have headed north for more affordable housing; that includes many young performers who appreciate Harlem’s proximity to Midtown’s Theatre District. (As the song goes, just take the A train!) With an abundance of gay-friendly restaurants, bars, shops, galleries, coffee shops and cultural options, Harlem welcomes all kinds of visitors. Read on for places to check out in the neighborhood.

Harlem food bar, burger Courtesy, Harlem Food Bar

Alibi Lounge
This swank LGBTQ bar has a fun happy hour that brings the community to 139th Street and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard seven nights a week. Other offerings include Harmonica Sunbeam’s comedy show, Caribbean Nights and Go-Go Mondays. Just be sure to get your disco nap in as the party often picks up after midnight and goes late.

Harlem Food Bar
Popular with the LGBTQ crowd, this local hot spot serves delicious meals and fabulous cocktails. Daily happy hours offer two-for-one house drinks including beer, homemade sangria, frozen margaritas and select wines. Insider tip: go for brunch and order the croque madame or their crab cake Benedict, along with a mimosa or three.

Harlem Tavern
This uptown staple has become a community meeting spot where everyone is welcome. If it’s your first time, the HT burger or truffle burger is a must, but be sure to order one of the mac and cheese variations for the table—you can spice it up with poblano kimchi, jalapeños or pico de gallo. And if you’re looking for a place that can accommodate a big group, they’ll have room.

Lido, bar, interior Courtesy, Lido

Lance Knowling, one of the chefs who catered Chelsea Clinton’s wedding, also hosts the Black Chef Series at this restaurant, featuring a lineup of extraordinary African-American chefs showcasing their specialties. The regular menu offers dishes like Marjorie’s deviled eggs, hickory-smoked salmon and wild-mushroom-smothered chicken.

Named after a Venetian beach resort, Lido seeks to transport guests from Harlem’s restaurant row to the Italian countryside. The intimate interior makes a homey setting for enjoying the food of James Beard-award-winning chef Serena Bass, who uses local, organic ingredients. With the purchase of a brunch entree, guests can indulge in bottomless drinks for $16. And be sure to order their buttermilk biscuit with chipotle-honey butter.

Solomon & Kuff
Solomon & Kuff is situated in a 5,000-square-foot industrial loft space just a short walk from the 1 train at 125th Street. The bar features more than 100 rums and an assortment of tropical cocktails. For dining, chef Christopher Faulkner has put his own spin on traditional Caribbean cuisine. Cocktail prices are slashed at the bar during happy hour, as are bites—arrive early to get a seat and order some snacks before dinner.

Cafés and Bakeries

Double Dutch Espresso
Coffee culture is alive and kicking at this uptown coffee shop, known for delicious snacks like Double Dutch avocado toast. Once you’re finished with your espresso, head next door to its sister bar, Mess Hall, where you can grab some cheesy puff balls and check out their menu of craft beers and bourbon.

Make My Cake
For more than 20 years, the folks behind this bakery have been whipping up some of the tastiest desserts in the City. Among the popular choices are German chocolate, red velvet and sweet potato cheesecake. Plus, no one will judge you if you order a few cherry turnovers for breakfast the next day.

Arts and Culture

Apollo Theater
The Apollo dates back to 1914, but it wasn’t until the 1930s that it was given its current name and allowed African Americans to perform on stage. Since then, it has hosted the likes of Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, James Brown, Miles Davis, Jimi Hendrix and Otis Redding. Amateur Night takes place Wednesdays between mid-February and November.

Hamilton Grange
Fans of the hottest ticket on Broadway have been taking an uptown train for a closer look at the Harlem home of founding father Alexander Hamilton. After the structure became part of the National Park Service, it was moved in 2008 to beautiful St. Nicholas park, renovated to the tune of $14.5 million and reopened to the public in 2011.

Harlem Stage
This performing arts center continually offers an intriguing series of programming. Some spring offerings include Ascension: A Lifting of Dr. Martin Luther King’s Legacy on the 50th Anniversary of His Assassination, a performance by vocalist and composer Imani Uzuri, and a swing night with a DJ and dance class.

Elizabeth Dee
After operating in Chelsea for 15 years, the Elizabeth Dee Gallery relocated in 2016 to the original home of the Studio Museum in Harlem. It focuses on conceptual art across a variety of mediums.

Essie Green
Before you venture to the broad array of new galleries popping up all over Harlem, it’s essential to visit Essie Green, the crown jewel of the uptown art scene. Dig deep into the history and legacy of the Harlem Renaissance while taking in artwork by some of the most creative minds of the time like Romare Bearden and Norman Lewis.

Dapper Dan’s Harlem Boutique
This new appointment-only atelier is located in a brownstone close to Dapper Dan’s former store, which was open from 1982 to 1992. The boutique is a unique partnership between Gucci and Dapper Dan, who gained famed from doing imitations inspired by the famed designer label. Contact the store via email ( to make your private appointment.

Flamekeepers Hat Club
Complete your Harlem Renaissance throwback outfit or pick out a simple driving cap at this hat store to end all hat stores. Proprietor Marc Williamson knows how to dress a head, and every gentleman should have a few great hats to complete every look.

Harlem Haberdashery
All the clothing at Harlem Haberdashery is designed and created at their own facility in Harlem, while accessories and other collections are hand-selected from specific designers. And whom might you run into here? If you’re lucky, a celeb like Rihanna or DJ Khaled.

Why women are lusting after dudes with ‘dad bod’

Why women are lusting after dudes with ‘dad bod’
Leonardo DiCaprio rocks his "dad bod." (

Flab is the new fab.

No need to lose the beer belly, fellas: Women are lusting after dudes with "dad bods" — a little extra gut around the middle.

"(It shows) you love life but also have the good sense to not let yourself completely go," says Marie Dugo, a 26-year-old marketing manager from the Upper East Side. "You can take them to family parties and eat cake together."

Ladies love guys who put the focus on fun, not physique, saying they're friendlier, more mature and less narcissistic.

"He would come across as a fun, goofy guy not stuck on himself," said Diane Hunt, 50, of Jersey City.

The love is spreading across the country, and even the world, with women as far away as Scandinavia cherishing the chub.

"Looking too fit can come across as self-centered," said Dothe Lodberg, 22, from Denmark.

And guys certainly aren't complaining.

"You look at the people on Men's Health and they all have 13-pack abs," says Alan, a 37-year-old corporate banker from Inwood. "The fact that society is starting to find normal physique sexy is a good thing."

But don't call "dad bod" a trend — men have been letting themselves go since the dawn of time. But the topic entered the zeitgeist last week when 19-year-old Clemson University sophomore Mackenzie Pearson wrote a pro-dad bod piece in her college magazine, The Odyssey.

She called the dad bod "a nice balance between a beer gut and working out." Her article has since been shared 452,000 times.

To Pearson, the man with the dad bod goes to the gym, but he also pigs out on pizza. He drinks protein shakes, but isn't above a platter of wings. His mere physical presence suggests cuddling and unpretentiousness.

Since writing her piece, men have thanked her for helping them feel less insecure about their less-than-buff bods.

"Guys are flattered," Pearson said. "They weren't ashamed of this body type, but now they have a reason to be proud of it. Someone young and female has said, 'This is what I'm looking for.'"

New York Magazine took the movement one step further last week when it created a hypothetical diet for men wanting to look this schlubby: Orange Gatorade, Clif Bars and Trader Joe's frozen burritos all made the cut.

Some think the movement is both sexist — it's like the male equivalent of being a MILF — and old. After all, gay men have fetishized "bears" for years.

But the main problem with the dad bod is maintaining it when you're a real dad.

"The dad with 'dad bod' is working to keep it just at 'dad bod' level," said Brett Singer, 44, a writer on the Upper East Side. "Once you've got kids, if you want to wear the same pants as when you were 20, you're gonna have to hit the gym."

Michael Hollick, who provided the voice and body of Niko Bellic. Credit Michael Nagle for The New York Times

Michael Hollick never thought his big break would come in a video game.

All those years when he was struggling to get by as an aspiring actor — tending bar, working in a bagel shop in Morningside Heights, spraying perfume at Bloomingdale’s — he was aiming for Broadway and prime time. As he moved from regional theater to soap operas, middling musicals and “Law & Order,” he remained just another good-looking guy hoping for an audition.

His face still isn’t famous, but Mr. Hollick’s voice and gait have moved into the pop culture firmament recently as those of Niko Bellic, the sardonic, textured Balkan criminal at the heart of Grand Theft Auto IV, the acclaimed gangster fantasy that has become the fastest-selling game to date. Produced by Rockstar Games and its corporate parent, Take-Two Interactive Software, the game has generated at least $600 million in sales over the last three weeks.

Yet even as “Saturday Night Live” has spoofed the Niko character, even as Mr. Hollick’s voice has been heard in tens of millions of homes in advertisements broadcast during “American Idol” and the N.B.A. playoffs, even as fans have flocked to his MySpace page, his triumph has been bittersweet.

That’s because Mr. Hollick was paid only about $100,000 over roughly 15 months between late 2006 and early this year for all of his voice acting and motion-capture work on the game, with zero royalties or residuals in sight, he said.

Had this been a television program, a film, an album, a radio show or virtually any other sort of traditional recorded performance, Mr. Hollick and the other actors in the game would have made millions by now. As it stands, they get nothing beyond the standard Screen Actors Guild day rate they were originally paid.

Continue reading the main story

That is because the contracts between the actors’ union and the entertainment industry make little or no provision for electronic media like video games and the Internet. It is a discrepancy that is expected to dominate negotiations between Hollywood and the guild this summer, with many predicting an actors’ strike to parallel the writers’ strike last year, which revolved around similar issues.

“Obviously I’m incredibly thankful to Rockstar for the opportunity to be in this game when I was just a nobody, an unknown quantity,” Mr. Hollick, 35, said last week over dinner in Willamsburg, Brooklyn, shortly after performing in the aerial theater show “Fuerzabruta” in Union Square. “But it’s tough, when you see Grand Theft Auto IV out there as the biggest thing going right now, when they’re making hundreds of millions of dollars, and we don’t see any of it. I don’t blame Rockstar. I blame our union for not having the agreements in place to protect the creative people who drive the sales of these games. Yes, the technology is important, but it’s the human performances within them that people really connect to, and I hope actors will get more respect for the work they do within those technologies.”

Rockstar declined to comment for this article, but it is an issue that has been hanging over the video game industry for years. On the one hand, through both creative and technical ambition, game makers are infusing their wares with more realistic characters and stories than ever. On the other hand, the $18 billion United States game industry has steadfastly refused to pay royalties to voice and motion-capture body actors along the lines of other entertainment media.

To the actors it is a simple issue of equity: equal pay for equal work, regardless of the medium.

“For instance, our contracts say nothing about the use of voices for promotional purposes over the Internet,” Mr. Hollick said. “The first G.T.A. IV trailer generated something like 40 million hits online, and that’s my voice all over it, and I get nothing. If that were a radio spot, I would have. Same thing for the TV ads. I recorded those lines for the game, but now they’re all over television. It’s another gray area.”

One of the big differences between games and traditional media is that while a film, play or TV show is usually marketed around a few well-known stars, games almost never highlight the people behind the digital characters, and almost no one buys a game based on which actors are in it.

“What drives video games is not Tracy and Hepburn; what drives it is the conception of the creative director,” said Ezra J. Doner, a former Hollywood executive who represents entertainment companies as a lawyer at Herrick, Feinstein in Manhattan, N.Y. “The actor whose appearance or voice is used is more analogous to a session music for a band. The session musicians don’t get residuals on the sales of the CD. They get paid a session fee. It’s not like the star quality of Tom Cruise that’s getting people to buy that video game.”

Mr. Hollick said he “asked about residuals when we negotiated, but I was told that was not a possibility.”

Ryan Johnston, the 29-year-old actor behind the Irish hood Patrick McReary, one of the main supporting characters in the game, said he believed it was just a matter of time before actors’ financial participation in games caught up with their popularity. He said the general guild-negotiated rate for actors is around $730 a day. Mr. Hollick said he had been paid about 50 percent more than the standard rate, or about $1,050 a day. A spokeswoman for the union said this week that no one was available to discuss the issue.

“What we’re seeing is a basic shift in the way that people seek their entertainment,” Mr. Johnston said. “People want their entertainment to be convenient. They want it in their home or in their iPod for the train ride, which is a lot different than the old mode, where I had to spend hundreds of dollars to see a Broadway play or pay $12 to sit in a crowded movie theater where I can’t even pause or go to the bathroom. And games are the first entertainment product that has taken full advantage of that shift.”

The game companies that make millions in royalties appear reluctant to share. Among their executives, one real fear is that if they start paying royalties to a handful of actors, they will soon face similar demands from the legions of artists, designers, audio producers, musicians, programmers and other people who work for years to make a top-end game. If the actor doing a police officer’s voice-over gets royalties, the argument goes, why not the artist who designed his face, or the artificial-intelligence programmer who designed how he chases the bad guys?

Mr. Doner, the lawyer, said the situation fit into the general food chain of the media business. “When it comes to video games, the actors are being paid for their work for that initial use, and what they get paid is what they get paid,” he said. “If they can negotiate a big fee for themselves, great. If not, well, that’s too bad. So long as it’s the medium for which they were hired, the logic of the industry has always been that that you get paid for the work that you do.”

Compensation is a particularly delicate issue for Rockstar, which has positioned itself as a creatively independent voice amid what the company construes as the staid mainstream game industry. Rockstar markets itself as a hip entertainment company along the lines of a record label or movie studio, rather than as a mere game publisher, and that carefully cultivated image could suffer in any dispute with actors or other artists.

For Mr. Hollick, Niko has still been the role of a lifetime. A native of the eastern shores of Maryland, Mr. Hollick developed a talent for dialects as a theater student at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, he said. In the game Niko is a war-scarred Serbian who has worked as a human trafficker before landing in New York (known in the game as Liberty City). Mr. Hollick’s masterly performance as the voice and body of Niko appears to stem both from Mr. Hollick’s rich conception of the character as well as from a stellar script.

“Developing Niko, the dry sense of humor, as the story begins, he’s this really hard guy with this really difficult background, but what gives it depth is that there is this naïveté as well,” Mr. Hollick said. “He comes to the big city and he’s not on firm ground. He’s not sure where he stands. So there is a lot to work with. And as he becomes more confident, the sense of humor comes out. The screenwriters and directors were really hip to that and really did a great job of making the character three-dimensional.”

Of course, because this is a video game, in addition to thousands of lines of dialogue, there were the more, shall we say, atmospheric effects.

“So we would have the 50 pages of screaming, 10 pages of being shot, 10 pages of being thrown off a roof, 20 pages of being burnt alive, just screaming,” he said. “The ones being burnt alive were the best. And I’d just be like: ‘Bring me more hot tea and honey and lemon. Earl Grey.’ “
