Naughty Coffee Drive-thru

Undercover police monitored three coffee bars for months using covert surveillance techniques. It was a rough job but somebody had to do it. Apparently bikini baristas ‘pole danced and flashed their breasts for tips’ at drive through espresso stands. Wonder what tipped the police off? Stripper pole seen from the drive thru or the owner standing in the window spanking herself.

Coffee May Benefit Some Heart Attack Patients

Researchers said on Friday that a couple of cups of coffee every day may help some heart attack patients to avoid further serious problems, provided they have normal blood pressure.

The findings come as a surprise considering the fact that strong coffee can cause palpitations. However, the discovery underlines the complex nature of coffee’s effect on the body.

Colon cancer not exacerbated by coffee or soda

People who drink coffee and soda are not more at risk of developing colon cancer than those who do not, according to a recent study.

The research, conducted at the Harvard School of Public Health and published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, looked at 13 previous studies on the disease conducted in the US and Europe.

Some of these studies have previously suggested that coffee and tea could increase the risk, and some have claimed it could be lowered. Science Daily points out that tea contains anti-oxidants that could serve to prevent cancer but also has polyamines, which theoretically promote cancer.
The new survey looked at 731,441, followed for up to 20 years, 5,604 of which developed colon cancer. Insight into their eating and drinking habits found that coffee lovers – even those who drank up to 6 cups a day – were not more likely to develop the illness. This also applied to those who drank large amounts of soda.

“Drinking coffee, even more than six cups a day, was not associated with risk of colon cancer,” confirmed researcher Dr. Xuehong Zhang of the Harvard School of Public Health.

A Sims Online Update?

Kevin — Thu, 15 Mar 2007 14:36:31 +0000

So I’m sitting here without my free cup of lousy Starbucks coffee checking out some email, It’s all kind of boring so I decide to visit a site that I haven’t been to in awhile. The official forum boards for The Sims Online. I used to play this game a couple of years back. It’s an MMORPG. It wasn’t considered to be a very good game. Even though The Sims was hugely popular, the online version lacked a lot of the things people liked about the offline version, like user created custom content and terrain building tools. There just wasn’t enough to do for most gamers and most people that tried it and left after a month because well you ran out of fun pretty quickly and most of the game revolved around repetitive game play. As an example you would do what they call skill to get interactions which involved sitting at your computer watching your sim read a book or play chess or some other dull thing. What fun is that? I wasn’t into the cybersex or the scamming that go’s on in these kinds of games. I have to admit that I played it for about 4 months as a beta tester and another 18 month after it went live before my group of friends decided to move on to better games.

Anyways I hadn’t been to these forums for months. After I quit playing the game I still would frequently check the forums to see if they had added anything that would make me want to come back to try and I have to admit it was kind of like gawking at a car accident. Month’s went by and I know that I had left at a good time. Electronics Arts had basically abandoned the game, no new content, no news about anything the developers were planning on implementing to make the game fresh.

So the page loads up and I see the usual posts about fixing the economy of the game and all the other boring posts people make about the game when I notice a post by a VIP named Luc. Could it be the Luc Barthelet that was involved with the development of the game. I had the honor of meeting him and several others including Will Wright during the beta phase of development.

His post::

I started a blog a www.TSO-E.com do discuss some ideas about what we could change in The Sims Online. I welcome feedback on those ideas on the Blog. Thanks
Luc

Wow.. he typos like I do! Could it be that EA has come to there senses and decided to make A Sims Online that lives up the the Sims franchise? My first thought was why? Why would they want to redo an old game with outdated graphics and stale game play? Could they really add custom content and make the game play so that real gamers would want to play The Sims Online? Or is this some cruel joke EA is playing on the few remaining fan boys left playing? I will defiantly be keeping an eye on his blog to see if this can be done. Kevin
