He S All That Star Rachael Leigh Cook Regrets Passing On X Men Role

The X-Men was one of the first in what could be described as a rebirth of the superhero movie. Actors like Hugh Jackman and Anna Paquin were introduced to a whole new audience when they appeared on the big screen as Wolverine and Rogue.

Cook had first dibs at putting on the character’s gloves and getting that white streak in her hair....

Health Get The Shot Not The Flu

It’s not too late. The shot takes two weeks to start working, so those who got immunized early were wise to do so. But you can still play catch-up–flu season runs until May.

Remember, if you do get sick, there’s still hope–antiviral drugs given in the first few days can quell symptoms....

Health The Hrt Decision

What should women still taking HRT do? Don’t panic.

Hannah of the Medlantic Research Institute in Washington, D.C., speculates that the production of cholesterol by their excess body fat may have overridden the benefits of the low-fat diet. If the obese subjects could lose weight, Hannah suspects, they, too, might be able to diet their elevated cholesterols down to healthier levels....

Heisman Trophy Odds Update A Badger Enters The Conversation

Baylor lost for the first time this season, with quarterback Bryce Petty completing only 16-of-36 passes at West Virginia. Unlike the previous week when Petty sparked an incredible comeback win over TCU, the Bears were outscored 14-0 in the fourth quarter of a 41-27 defeat. If not for an offensive pass interference call in the final minute at Florida State, one that negated a potential game-winning touchdown pass for Everett Golson, the Notre Dame quarterback would’ve been a more serious candidate today than last week....
