Eel Pie Island on the River Thames was the location of a club started by sociologist Arthur Chisnall to help troubled youth.

The club closed in 1967 but not before making its mark on the rock and roll scene of the day.

Researchers claim to have created the pill, which they claim provides all the same benefits of exercising without the exertion.They claim that a hormone naturally found in muscle cells that triggers the calorie-burning benefits of exercise, may have potential as an obesity-fighting drug.
The newly identified hormone, called irisin, increases in the body during exercise, boosting energy expenditure and controlling blood glucose levels.

Doctors warn that the pill should not be used to replace exercising. Yeah right!

Artist Censored over Putin Painting

2012-01-10T19:27:00.004-05:00

Me, I think Putin looks great as "The Queen Of Russia". Others were not so keen on the painting.

Danish artist Peter Ravn painted "Queen of Russia" in Hanoi, Vietnam in November 2011, as part of the Emergency Room Exhibition. "Queen of Russia" was rejected by the censorship committee in Hanoi and not allowed to be displayed. The painting shows Putin in the dress and jewels worn by Empress Maria Feodorovna, former Princess Dagmar of Denmark. If Putin is re-elected in 2012 his presidency can continue until 2024. His reign of Russia will then amount to 24 years, longer than that of many kings and queens. Lately, Russia has passed increasingly homophobic laws and Russians have been demonstrating in the streets against Putin's rule. See also http://peterravn.com/
