The Gary Dell Abate house photos were discussed at length today on Howard Stern. The crew teased Dell Abate for allowing Sound and Vision Magazine to take photos of his house. Gary Del Abate built a new house in Connecticut's Fairfield county last year. The Sound and Vision article discusses Gary's collection of antique radios (a collection Howard calls trite.)
The weird thing about this story... theSound and Visionarticle and photos were published nearly a year ago, but all of a sudden, lots of people are searching for and discussing the photos of Gary's home.
Gary Dell Abate, aka Baba Booey, is the executive producer of The Howard Stern show heard on Sirius satellite radio. He's been with the Stern show since September 4, 1984.

Elisabeth confirmed the news that she and her husband, former NFL quarterback Tim Hasselbeck, are expecting their third child on Thursday’s “The View.”
“We are thankful for such great news and will begin planning our zone defense strategy immediately,” Elisabeth said.
While talking about the anonymous family in Southern California, who welcomed eight babies earlier this week during “The View’s” hot topics segment, Elisabeth admitted her own pregnancy came as a surprise.
“This time… we were shocked that we got pregnant,” she said. “But the first two times, it was difficult for me to get pregnant.”
“The View” panelist is already a proud mom to 15-month-old Taylor Thomas and 3-year-old Grace Elisabeth.

David Bergman used a Gigapan camera system to generate a panoramic image of President Obama’s inaugural address at the U.S. Capitol on January 20, 2009. The system was spun off from NASA technology that was used on the Mars Exploration Rovers Spirit and Opportunity. To see the Bergman image, go to the Gigapan.org article “President Barack Obama's Inaugural Address by David Bergman.”
The Gigapan system captures thousands of digital images, which are then transformed into a “uniform high-resolution picture of more than a billion pixels.”
Actually, the Gigapan image of the Obama Inaugural Address is composed of 59,783 by 24,658 pixels—or 1.474 megapixels.

Intermittent explosive disorder (IED) is a behavioral disorder characterized by extreme expressions of anger, often to the point of uncontrollable rage, that are disproportionate to the situation at hand. It is currently categorized in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders as an impulse control disorder. IED belongs to the larger family of Axis I impulse control disorders listed in the DSM-IV-TR, along with kleptomania, pyromania, pathological gambling, and others. Impulsive aggression is unpremeditated, and is defined by a disproportionate reaction to any provocation, real or perceived. Some individuals have reported affective changes prior to an outburst (e.g., tension, mood changes, energy changes, etc.).
A 2006 study published by Harvard University researchers suggests that the disorder is considerably more prevalent than previously thought. In a study of almost 10,000 individuals 18 years or older, lifetime episodes were reported at 7.3%, while 12-month occurrences were reported at 3.9%. This suggests a mean lifetime occurrence of 43 instances, with an average of $1359 in property damage.
A 2005 study conducted in the U.S. State of Rhode Island found the prevalence to be 6.3% (SE, +/- 0.7%) for lifetime DSM-IV IED in a study of 1300 patients under psychiatric evaluation. Prevalence is higher in men than in women. The disorder itself is not easily characterized and often exhibits comorbidity with other mood disorders, particularly bipolar disorder.
In this same study, 27 subjects exhibiting DSM-IV IED were recruited and interviewed to describe their symptomology and episodic behaviors. All subjects described outbursts as brief, lasting an average of 22 minutes ± SD of 23 minutes. One-third of the subjects reported experiencing somatization prior to an episode, e.g. “tingling, tremor, palpitations, chest tightness, head pressure, or hearing an echo”. Over half of the subjects reported an alteration in their awareness during the episode, but none reported amnesia of the outburst. Subjects generally reported an inability to resist the impulse to violence, and often reported a feeling of relief (88% reporting) or even pleasure (46% reporting) while committing the acts. After the acts, many subjects reported feelings of remorse at their actions. Remarkably, all 27 subjects reported their experiences with IED consistently.-----------Source: Wikipedia
Other news from source:
When you hear the acronym IED you probably thing of an IED as in Iraq; an improvised explosive device. But IED can also stand for intermittent explosive disorder. It sounds like something made up, but it's not.
Intermittent explosive disorder is a behavioral disorder characterized by extreme expressions of anger, often to the point of uncontrollable rage. It is currently categorized in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) as an impulse control disorder.
According to the Mayo Clinic, intermittent explosive disorder occurs most often in young men (no!) and may affect as many as one in 14 U.S. adults.
Many people with IED grew up in families where physical abuse were common.
Interestingly, according to recent reports, WWE wrestler Randy Orton has intermittent explosive disorder or IED. He says he's been diagnosed with it, in fact. But it should be noted that some have posited that IED may be exacerbated by steroid use.
Treatment includes cognitive behavioral therapy, but also medication such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), mood stabilizers such as lithium carbonate (Lithonate) or even some anticonvulsant medications.
Heavy-duty tranquilizers such as clozapine (Clozaril), haloperidol (Haldol) may also help, although these are traditionally used as anti-psychotic medication.
Beta blockers, are also known to help in some cases. These are usually prescribed to slow heart rate or control blood pressure.
It should be obvious from the medication list that often medication used to treat IED is used in the absence of the conditions that they are normally used for.----------Source:Huliq

What do you do when you want to know about India - Indian food, culture, famous Indians? You Google. Be a little more patriotic now. Forget google and switch to guruji.
Started by two Indians from IIT -Delhi. Guruji.com is a search engine by the Indians, for the Indians, of the Indians.
Says the co-founder, Anurag, “Guruji's is a website for Indian consumers. It is more friendly for Indian consumers”.
So if you type president on Guruji it will not take you to Obama but Pratibha Patil. The site gets around 16 million searches per month on an average. Besides English it does searches in seven Indian languages including Gujarati & Tamil.
“Since the launch we have had good growth guruji is the 4th most popular search engine in India. And the website among the top 100 Indian websites,” says Anurag.
Another site on the same lines is raftaar.com. It's designed to hunt Hindi content on the web. The makers claim almost one hits every day most of them, from far flung villages.
Says the founder Raftaar, Saurabh, “This website searches the Hindi content. We also have a feature in which if a person types in a Hindi word it will also find websites which has that word written in roman. Say if they write khabar it will also find websites which have khabar written as khabar”.
Maybe you browse in English not Hindi. Maybe you need directions to the hottest party in town. Who do you ask?
Ask Laila. And who is Laila? www.asklaila.com is a website that searches for stuff you really need in your own neighbourhood. Movie listings, theatre nights, the nearest grocery story - it has them all.
“Asklaila is available in main six metro cities of India. Lalila knows your city really well. If you are looking for potpourri in CP but are not sure of the spelling it will still search and give you the number,” says asklaila founder, Shriram.
A Hollywood actor became a real hero overnight in a real incident.He is none other than Gerald McCullouch.He became a crime stopper himself.This incident took place at a subway. Gerald McCullouch, who plays Bobby Dawson on "CSI: Original Flavor," was taking the A train back towards the city from the airport at 2am Saturday when he was allegedly attacked by a knife-wielding passenger. As the train pulled into the Utica Avenue stop in Brooklyn, McCulloch had his laptop open, on which he was editing a YouTube video and charging his iPhone. Cuz that's what we all do on a train from the airport at 2am, right?
Suddenly, a man approached him and and tried to snatch the laptop. The two men got into a fistfight, because, as McCulloch said:
I didn’t want to give up my computer after working on my video all that time.
Also McCullouch just happened to be boxing about eight hours before this incident so he was all punch drunk anyways. McCullouch said he managed to fend off his attacker, who was holding a 10-inch blade, until other passengers alerted the conductor to stop the train. Police boarded and arrested the alleged assailant on the spot.
Ironically, this story came over the transom right as we were advising a visitor to NYC about subway safety, so we shall repeat: Taking the subway from JFK is safe, not to mention the cheapest way to get into midtown Manhattan, but keep your wits about you.
You may be above ground, but that doesn't make it a good idea to whip out your laptop or iPhone. Listening to music is fine -- it might even make you more aware of your surroundings -- but keep the volume down, iPod in your pocket and ditch the telltale white earphones. If all else fails, act like you do this all the time -- most of your fellow riders probably do.
And we don't care if you are a somewhat famous actor or a first-time visitor to New York, do not talk smack to someone who has just attempted to steal your laptop and is allegedly holding a 10-inch knife. That's what brainiac McCullouch did.
The train was halfway out of the station when it stopped. I was saying stupid, cocky stuff, like ‘You are [bleeped] buddy!’ He came at me again with the knife. But the other passengers had told a conductor, ‘A guy’s getting stabbed in there,’ so the conductor came in and got me into the next car.
If you do insist on telling your would-be assailant "You are [bleeped] buddy!", make sure to wear whatever leather jacket McCullouch was wearing. Apparently, it's thick enough to withstand a stabbing from a 10-inch knife.
Yet perhaps the most important rule of all is this: Do not travel with Gerald McCoullouch. Not only does he not care about flashing his laptop and iPhone on a subway nor about smack-talking armed men, he's had some bad luck traveling before. In 2001, he and a boyfriend were robbed at gunpoint in Atlanta.

First of all Happy Chinese New year 2009.2009 is the Year of the Ox, which is also known by its formal name of Ji Chou. 己丑.2009 is Year 4706 in the Chinese Calendar.
With red lanterns hanging from the eaves, the bangs of firecrackers outside, and tables of delicious food, Chinese people, including millions of quake survivors, observed the Lunar New Year eve in the traditional way.
In the prefab of quake survivor Hu Suqiong, a dozen family members gathered at the table on which were traditional local foods such as preserved ham and sausage.
The Chinese Lunar New Year is the longest chronological record in history, dating from 2600BC, when the Emperor Huang Ti introduced the first cycle of the zodiac. Like the Western calendar, The Chinese Lunar Calendar is a yearly one, with the start of the lunar year being based on the cycles of the moon. Therefore, because of this cyclical dating, the beginning of the year can fall anywhere between late January and the middle of February. This year it falls on February 12th. A complete cycle takes 60 years and is made up of five cycles of 12 years each.
The Chinese Lunar Calendar names each of the twelve years after an animal. Legend has it that the Lord Buddha summoned all the animals to come to him before he departed from earth. Only twelve came to bid him farewell and as a reward he named a year after each one in the order they arrived. The Chinese believe the animal ruling the year in which a person is born has a profound influence on personality, saying: "This is the animal that hides in your heart."

The first solar eclipse of the year 2009 was not a full solar eclipse,but it was a partially visible one in some parts of India and observed by various people Monday afternoon.The eclipse started at 2.15 p.m. and ended at 4.20 p.m.
“The eclipse was visible only from southern parts of India, eastern coast, most of northeast India, Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Lakshadweep,” Nehru Planetarium director N. Rathnasree told IANS here.
She said people in north and west India couldn’t see the celestial activity.
At 3.10 p.m. the eclipse was visible with maximum clarity. It moved over Chennai and other southern regions at around 2.28 p.m.
Around 50 people gathered at the Nehru Planetarium at Teen Murti Bhawan for discussions on the solar eclipse. The eclipse progress was webcast live on a large screen from Java, Indonesia, where the eclipse was central, courtesy NGO Science Popularisation Association for Communicators and Educators (SPACE).
The origin of the eclipse was in South Atlantic Ocean in South Africa where the moon’s shadow first touched the earth, Rathnasree said. The eclipse ended when the moon’s shadow finally left the earth in the South China Sea.
As it is harmful to view the sun during an eclipse with naked eyes it was advised across regions to watch the solar eclipse using proper eye gadgets and telescope.
The next solar eclipse of the year 2009 will occur July 22,2009 will be the century’s longest duration solar eclipse.

North Carolina State's Kay Yow, the Hall of Fame women's basketball coach who won more than 700 games while earning fans with her decades-long fight against breast cancer, died on Saturday. She was 66.
Yow, first diagnosed with the disease in 1987, died Saturday morning at WakeMed Cary Hospital after being admitted there last week, university spokeswoman Annabelle Myers said.
"I think she understood that keeping going was inspirational to other people who were in the same boat she was in," Dr. Mark Graham, Yow's longtime oncologist, said Saturday.
Yow won more than 700 games in a career filled with milestones. She coached the U.S. Olympic team to a gold medal in 1988, won four Atlantic Coast Conference tournament championships, earned 20 NCAA tournament bids and reached the Final Four in 1998.
Health officials say a Brazilian model whose feet and hands were amputated because of an infection has died.
Officials said in a statement early Saturday that 20-year-old Mariana Bridi's condition deteriorated overnight. She died at 2:30 a.m.
The Espirito Santo State Health Secretariat said in the statement she died from complications related to a generalized infection. It was caused by the bacteria Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is known to be resistant to multiple kinds of antibiotics.

During one beauty pageant, Brazilian model Mariana Bridi, 20, confided in friends that she was "living the dream."
Now she's fighting for her life in intensive care in a hospital in the Brazilian city of Serra, following a series of operations to bring a potentially fatal infection under control.
In the last week, she's had both hands and feet amputated. Doctors removed both kidneys and in the most recent surgery last night removed part of her stomach.
"They say her situation is very critical and that her chances (of survival) are not really significant, but she keeps on surprising everyone," Henrique Fontes, executive director of Miss World Brazil told CNN.
"Two weeks ago the doctor gave her 24 hours to live and she's been fighting and resisting -- she's quite amazing."
