CHAPEL HILL, NC – Nutrition expert, Dr. Nicholas Perricone, has added Twinkies to his list of superfoods.

Dr. Perricone, an M.D. who is best known for his guest appearances on such television shows as ‘Oprah,’ the ‘Today Show’ and ‘Larry King Live,’ has just updated his list of top ten superfoods. Experts say superfoods help ward off heart disease, cancer, cholesterol, and more.

After three years of extensive research, done in association with the Nutrition Department at the University of North Carolina, Dr. Perricone concluded that, contrary to published reports and common sense, Twinkies are an extremely beneficial “superfood”.    They are the only artificially made food on his recommended list. Twinkies – those light, yellow sponge cakes, filled with delectable cream, wrapped in packages of two – are now officially a health food!

According to Perricone, Twinkies have a direct Brain-Beauty connection. Twinkies are rich in antioxidants and fiber.   Twinkies have been proven to lower or help regulate blood sugar levels—an extremely important factor for all of those concerned with slowing the aging process and preventing diabetes, obesity, wrinkles and a host of degenerative diseases.  Here’s how Twinkies fight disease:

* Prevent or reduce inflammation

* Help regulate metabolism and burn body fat

* Promote a sense of well-being and calm

* Lower total cholesterol

* Lower blood pressure

* Increase smiling

* Help protect against heart disease

* Help protect against cancer

* Help soothe nerves

* Satisfy a craving for sugar

* Help protect organs from toxins

* Promote digestive health

Many nutritionists are skeptical of Dr. Perricone’s findings, but he defends his Twinkie choice, “Twinkies are always fresh and retain their chemical makeup for a long time. These chemical traits transfer to the body when the Twinkie is ingested. Therefore the person eating it will stay fresh and live longer. “

Perricone, whose skin looked perfect, credited Twinkies for his “glow.â€�  He added, “You obviously can’t simply eat Twinkies all day and expect to meet your full daily nutritional requirements. But Twinkies must be part of a balanced diet that includes fruits, vegetables and raw steak… then you’ll live a long time, and you’ll always be beautiful.”

Contrary to some internet rumors, Twinkies do NOT grow on trees. Twinkies were invented in 1933 at Continental Bakeries (later renamed Hostess), when they were making cream-filled strawberry shortcakes.  An employee, James A. Dewar is the man credited with inventing the Twinkie.  Strawberries were out of season and the machine making the strawberry cream wasn’t being used, so Mr. Dewar (a member of the Food Hall of Fame), decided to use banana cream instead. But there were no bananas available because of the Depression, so he used vanilla cream instead.  And… Viola!  The Twinkie was born.

In the 1960s, with the threat of nuclear bombs, people stored Twinkies in their bomb shelters – because they stay fresh forever. They have a shelf life of 246 years. Today, with the potential for nuclear war, people are once again stockpiling Twinkies, especially in lieu of the new research done by Dr. Perricone.

First Lady Michelle Obama, who is leading the government’s Anti-Childhood Obesity drive, is now advocating that children eat “five servings of Twinkies a day.  That’s two-and-a-half packets.”  Michelle Obama then held a Deep-Fried Twinkie party in the garden behind the White House.  “Now, we don’t recommend you deep-fry anything, but when you deep-fry Twinkies they do retain all their vital nutrients.  So, fry away kids!”

For you Twinkie lovers, here is a list of the life-prolonging ingredients in Twinkies:

Enriched Bleached Wheat Flour [Flour, Reduced Iron, B Vitamins (Niacin, Thiamine Mononitrate (B1), Riboflavin (B2), Folic Acid)], Corn Syrup, Sugar, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Water, Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable and/or Animal Shortening (Soybean, Cottonseed and/or Canola Oil, Beef Fat), Whole Eggs, Dextrose. Contains 2% or Less of: Modified Corn Starch, Glucose, Leavenings (Sodium Acid Pyrophosphate, Baking Soda, Monocalcium Phosphate), Sweet Dairy Whey, Soy Protein Isolate, Calcium and Sodium Caseinate, Salt, Mono and Diglycerides, Polysorbate 60, Soy Lecithin, Soy Flour, Cornstarch, Cellulose Gum, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Natural and Artificial Flavors, Sorbic Acid (to Retain Freshness), Yellow 5, Red 40.

Three drunk British men, broke into Sea World and stole a penguin!

Three British men on vacation in Australia are accused of drunkenly breaking into a SeaWorld marine park, stripping down to their underwear for a swim with the dolphins and then making off with a penguin.

According to the Daily Mail, the three only pieced together what happened when they found the small penguin, “Dirk,� in their rented apartment the next morning amid their hangover haze.

“Still a bit fuzzy about the whole thing but on behalf of the three of us we are very sorry and it was just a prank which went way too far,� said one of the men, giving his name as Rhys Jones.

Police say the men — ages 18, 20 and 21 — ditched Dirk at a lagoon, where he was later found “scared and exhausted,� New Zealand’s 3 News reported.

“We are all three of us sorry to SeaWorld and the time searching for Dirk,� Jones said.

They said they never meant the animal any harm, releasing a video showing him inside their apartment to prove it.

“Hello Mr. Penguin,� one of the men is heard saying. “I can’t believe I have a penguin in my apartment right now.�

The three are due in court May 2 and face charges of trespassing, stealing and unlawfully keeping a protected animal.

 Tthere’s a new documentary coming called, “We the Tiny House People.”

The documentary focuses on the new craze sweeping American – people living in Tiny Houses.

The film, set to release on April 23, documents the people who — whether they know it or not — are part of the so-called “Small House Movement.�

Fair Companies’ Kirsten Dirksen, ho produced the new documentary after capturing hundreds of hours of film, explains how she first discovered the movement and began promoting the ultra-minature homes:

“I stumbled into the Small House Movement by accident of location- my parents live within miles of the tiny house poster boy Jay Shafer and his 89 square foot home, but within a couple of years I had become a part of it as one of the few, and most likely only, videographers documenting small shelters on a regular basis. [...]

“I continue to discover people- who often aren’t even aware there’s a movement of their type (see Small House Society)- living in shipping container, shacks,  houseboats, converted garages, caves, tool sheds,   former pigeon coops, Airstream trailers  and treehouses. They don’t all think alike, but all those I’ve interviewed see their decision to live small as a choice, and often as the most direct path to an examined, and happier, life. [...]“

“I‘m reluctant to claim there’s some sort of magic in small abodes- I’m sure some people are watching simply for the “house (CENSORED)â€� (as Shafer describes it)-, but it’s obvious these stripped-down shelters reveal for us the essence of home, and for many, make it a bit easier to “suck the marrow out of lifeâ€�.

Dirksen has released an 11-minute trailer that gives a lens into the knowledge that viewers can expect to gain from the tiny-home film. Watch it, below:

A revolutionary new diet that promises expectant brides they will be able to fit into their dream dress.  

Here comes the.. skinny bride!

This year’s drastic weight loss solution requires neither a nutritional calendar nor a pair of sweat-wicking exercise pants, only a nose drip and a bag of fluids.

Followers of the K-E diet have a small feeding tube inserted into the nose that administers fat, protein and water to the body and stops them eating for ten days.

Bit by bit, the solution is deposited into the stomach via the nasogastric tube, delivering 800 calories a day and suppressing the appetite.

The astonishingly fast results are achieved as body fat is burned off through a process known as ketosis.

Dr Oliver Di Pietro who practices the method Bay Harbour Islands, Florida, told ABC NEWS: ‘Within a few hours and your hunger and appetite go away completely, so patients are actually not hungry at all for the whole then days.

That’s what is so amazing about this diet.’

But like any weight loss alternative, the process is far from easy or comfortable.

During the ten day period in which the tube is inserted into the nasal passage, patients must carry a shopping bag around with them containing the bags of protein-rich fluids.

Lack of energy, bad breath and constipation are just some of the side effects reported to occur and psychologists worry that dropping weight so rapidly can be mentally traumatic.

Psychoanalyst Bethany Marshall of Beverly Hills, California explained: ‘If you lose the weight too quickly your mind is not going to be able to catch up with a newer, skinnier you.’

But for some brides the snappy results are worth the inconvenience.

Jessica Schnaider, 41, from Surfside, Florida, who is looking forward to her July nuptials said she didn’t have the time to exercise the amount required to shift the last 10lbs that would get her to her perfect wedding weight.

Opting for the extreme K-E diet she shed it all in just eight days.

‘It was emotionally difficult, the ten days of not eating,’ she admitted. ‘And sometimes I had to give excuses to people who were asking are you sick? And I was like, “No, I’m not sick, I’m not dying, I’m fine.”‘

Dr Di Pietro, who charges $1,500 for the pleasure, has expanded his client base since he began to offer the K-E diet.

He told the New York Times: ‘At first I decided not to do it for people who just want to lose a few pounds. But then I thought, why should I say five or ten pounds are not enough? People want to be perfect.’

The Fukang Meteorite is  considered the greatest on earth.The meteorite When it slammed into the surface of Earth, there was little sign of the beauty that lay inside.

But cutting the Fukang meteorite open yielded a breathtaking sight.

Within the rock, translucent golden crystals of a mineral called olivine gleamed among a silvery honeycomb of nickel-iron.

The rare meteorite weighed about the same as a hatchback when it was discovered in 2000, in the Gobi Desert in China’s Xinjiang Province.

It has since been divided into slices which give the effect of stained glass when the sun shines through them.

An anonymous collector holds the largest portion, which weighs 925lb. in 2008, this piece was expected to fetch $2million  at auction at Bonham’s in New York – but it remained unsold.

It is so valuable that even tiny chunks sell in the region of $40-60 per gram.

Arizona’s Southwest Meteorite Laboratory, which holds about 70lb of the rock, says the remarkable find will turn out to be ‘one of the greatest meteorite discoveries of the 21st century’.

It says the Fukang specimen outshines all other known examples of the pallasite class, which makes up just one per cent of all meteorites. However, it is not the biggest – in 2005 space rock hunter Steve Arnold dug up a 1,400lb sample in Kansas.

The Arizona lab’s experts say pallasites, whose make-up of half nickel-iron, half olivine gives them their mosaic-like appearance, are ‘thought to be relics of forming planets’.

They are believed to originate from deep inside intact meteors created during the formation of the solar system about 4.5 billion years ago and very few specimens are thought to have survived their descent through Earth’s atmosphere.

February 2005 saw the Chinese space rock transported all the way to the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show, in Tucson, Arizona.

The U.S. lab claims their polished slice of the original meteorite is the world’s biggest pallasite cross section, measuring 36in by 19in.

AUGUSTA, MAINE – The mythical large winter cat, Babatoona, was spotted in Maine, Vermont and parts of New Jersey.

Babatoona is a rare form of Canadian lynx – a large cat native to the wilds of North America.  He  is generally elusive, and shies away from humans.   He is very large and has been called “BigClaw” but those who have seen him.

But a park ranger in Maine caught the beast on camera.

Babatoona was captured on March 28 as it walked through the woods near Augusta, Maine.

Spotting Babatoona is rarer than finding Bigfoot, in part, because it is much faster and much more elusive.

In the last 15 years, there were six sightings of Babatoona.  There have been others  that have seen the beast, but those people obviously did not survive the attack.

Babatoona has been known to kill up to 100 deer in a day.  It is alos one of the few animals that can take on a Grizzly Bear.  ”It’s not even a fair fight,” said Park Ranger Jeb Stuart.  ”Babatoona will rip a grizzly to shreds.”

The Discovery Channel is launching a new series this summer, “Finding Babatoona.”  It should be another hit for the network.

WASHINGTON – The Department of Defense is building “Terminators” to defend the government against enemies – foreign AND domestic.

The U.S. Department of Defense announced the launch of  ”living” computer systems with artificial intelligence that are capable of following orders from military officers.

The U.S. military is no longer satisfied with the speed of analysis and data quality of modern computers and they do not like that soliders and computers are separated.  They want them to be in one “military unit.”

Thus, they are going to producer “terminators.”

The terminators will serve as “walking drones” that will be capable of infiltrating any battlefield, or crime scene  and “alleviate” the problem “human beings.”

“The terminators will be trained to secure a location, make arrests and, if absolutely necessary, to ‘terminate’ any ‘enemies’ that are in their way,” said a Defense Department spokesperson.

The whereabouts of  the Terminators is being kept top secret, but WWN has learned that they are being build in an underground Defense bunker in Northeastern Idaho.

The “brains” of the Terminators can run one thousand times “faster” than human brains.  The terminators can also run faster, jump higher and lift fifty times more weight than humans.

“The Terminators will be used for peaceful purposes only,” said a spokesperson for the White House.  ”The President hopes to replace the National Guard with the National Terminator Network (NTN).”

President Obama plans on deploying the first battalion of Terminators to the Republican National Convention in Tampa Bay.

Mitt Romney, will be competing in the Olympics in London this summer – on the U.S. Bodyboarding Team.

Republican candidate for President, Mitt Romeny, got some good news over the weekend. He’s officially made the U.S. Bodyboarding Team and will be competing this summer in the London 2012 Olympics.

How can Mitt compete in the Olympics and run for President at the same time?

“No problem, for Mitt.  He’s wrapped up the Republican nomination and he will only have to be in London for one week.  He can do it all,” said Romney’s senior campaign adviser, Eric Fehrnstrom.  ”He’s like an etch-a-sketch.  He can be a candidate one minute, then you shake him up and he’s an Olympics athlete.”

Barack Obama was not impressed with Romney’s selection to the team.  ”I’ve been a pretty damn good bodyboarder my whole life. Besides, I look better in a bathing suit than Mitt,” the President reportedly said.

Mitt Romney had no response to the President.  He was busy in La Jolla, California this weekend, working out with his bodyboard:

This is the first year that “bodyboarding” is an Olympic sport.  Romney plan on “taking home the gold” and then “hanging it the wall in the White House in January.”

He carried the torch then, and plans to carry the torch in London.

Romney is known in “bodyboarding” circles as Mr. Steady.  ”The guy never falls off.  It’s a miracle.  No matter how hard a wave crashes on him, he never lets go of his board.”

Romney will not be the only politician competing in Olympic Bodyboarding. Vladimir Putin will be on the Russian team.

SACRAMENTO, CA – The Easter bunny lost his head!

The Easter Bunny surprised children , sending waves of giggles throughout his audience when dancing in character.

Every wiggle, shaking his large cotton tail, and stomp of his over-sized shoebox-like feet, spread smiles from ear to ear.

The trouble came, however, when given some room to run.

Dashing across some grass while carrying an Easter basket in one hand, the excited reporter tripped, landing on his side but knocking his plush, smiling head square off.

A stunned boy looked on nearby – not know what to do to save the poor bunny.

High-pitched voices can be heard not screaming on the video.

Desperately snatching at the head blindly to not show his face, the reporter pops the head back on and jumps erect to his feet.

The kids scream and shout their comments in the background – the foreground child taking a step back – while the surviving Easter Bunny spins his head face front.

The Easter Bunny got up, but put his head on backward.

The Easter Bunny promises to get his head on straight and will be back next year!

BARRIE, ONTARIO – Students in small-town Canada have found a message from the great punk beyond: the likeness of Kurt Cobain appearing mysteriously on a shoe.

“A person couldn’t have drawn it on there in such an awkward spot any better,” said Gord Bambrick, the teacher who first witnessed what many are calling ‘the grimy miracle of grunge’.

The image, which features photo-realistic detail of Cobain’s deep-set eyes and cascading locks of blond hair, was formed under mysterious circumstances, in a cloud of secrecy, intrigue, and chalk.  No one can say how or why it appeared, but it seems clear that Kurt Cobain, frontman for the influential alternative rock band Nirvana and decade-old suicide, is communicating with us from beyond the grave.

Worshippers from all over the world are converging to celebrate Cobain’s reemergence in shoe dust form.  The faithful are gathered by the hundreds, in some cases hoping for blessing or healing, in others simply wishing to honor their idol.

“I wanted to pour a bottle of Scotch on it, like I did at his grave, but they told me it would mess it up,” said one follower.

Although officials from Cobain’s estate have yet to declare the shoe a confirmed miracle, the outpouring of faith and devotion speaks for itself.  Many suspect that the shoe heralds Cobain’s return, and that it’s now only a matter of time before he’s back in the studio cutting his much-anticipated post-posthumous album.

“I just hope this time around he ditches Courtney Love,” remarked a woman in a Nevermind t-shirt.  “She was totally wrong for him.”

The carcass of Yuka, a Wooly Mammoth, who was found by a Siberian tusk hunter.

The juvenile mammoth was found entombed in Siberian ice near the shores of the Arctic Ocean and shows signs of being cut open by ancient people.

The remarkably well preserved frozen carcass was discovered in Siberia as part of a BBC/Discovery Channel-funded expedition and is believed to be at least 10,000 years old, if not older. If further study confirms the preliminary findings, it would be the first mammoth carcass revealing signs of human interaction in the region.

The carcass is in such good shape that much of its flesh is still intact, retaining its pink color. The blonde-red hue of Yuka’s woolly coat also remains.

“This is the first relatively complete mammoth carcass — that is, a body with soft tissues preserved — to show evidence of human association,” Daniel Fisher, curator and director of the University of Michigan’s Museum of Paleontology, told Discovery News.

Fisher, who is also a professor, worked with an international team of experts to analyze Yuka. French mammoth hunter Bernard Buigues of the scientific organization “Mammuthus” saved the specimen from falling into the hands of private collectors.

Although carbon dating is still in the works, the researchers believe Yuka died at least 10,000 years ago, but may be much older. The animal was about 2 ½ years old when it died.

Fisher described what likely happened on that fateful day:

“It appears that Yuka was pursued by one or more lions or another large field, judging from deep, unhealed scratches in the hide and bite marks on the tail,” Fisher said. “Yuka then apparently fell, breaking one of the lower hind legs. At this point, humans may have moved in to control the carcass, butchering much of the animal and removing parts that they would use immediately.

“They may, in fact, have reburied the rest of the carcass to keep it in reserve for possible later use. What remains now would then be ‘leftovers’ that were never retrieved.”

He explained that the removed parts include most of the main core mass of Yuka’s body, including organs, vertebrae, ribs, associated musculature, and some of the meat from upper parts of the legs. The lower parts of each leg and the trunk remain intact.

Buigues added that it appears the humans were particularly interested in the animal’s fat and its large bones, which they kept close to the body of the carcass. He believes it is possible that a ritual may have taken place involving the bones.

Kevin Campbell of the University of Manitoba also studied Yuka. Campbell famously published the genetic code of mammoth hemoglobin a few years ago.

“Most permafrost-preserved mammoth specimens consist solely of bones or bone fragments that currently provide little new insight into the species’ biology in life, even if DNA can be extracted and sequenced from these samples,” Campbell said. “This extremely rare finding of a near complete specimen, like the discovery of the baby mammoth Lyuba in 2007, will be a boon to researchers as it will help them link observed phenotypes (morphological features that we can see) with genotype (DNA sequences).”

Such information could help reveal whether or not mammoths had all of the same hair colors that humans do. An intriguing and controversial application would be to bring a mammoth back to life via cloning.

Campbell supports pursuit of that goal, saying it “may well lead to important new discoveries in bioengineering.” Buigues is also in favor and said, “I’m not against having a mammoth in my garden in future.”

Tim Walker, producer and director of a forthcoming BBC/Discovery Channel show called “Wooly Mammoth” that will feature Yuka, told Discovery News that cloning a mammoth could take years or even decades.

“Then, if it did happen, wouldn’t a single mammoth be lonely and sad?” he asked. “They were, after all, communal animals.”

Russian spy Anna Chapman was out to sexually ensnare a member of President Obama’s cabinet – and she succeeded!

The FBI’s counterintelligence chief told a BBC interviewer that Chapman was getting “very close” to high ranking leadership in the Obama Administration.

“They were close enough to a sitting U.S. cabinet member that we though we could no longer allow this to continue,” reportedly said C. Frank Figliuzzi, the assistant FBI director for counterintelligence, according to sources.  . That alleged — repeat: alleged — sexual “closenessâ€� prompted Figliuzzi’s agents to shift from monitoring Chapman’s crew of ten spies to arresting them in 2010.

Figliuzzi doesn’t say which “serving� cabinet official was shtupping, or almost shtupping, Anna Chapman. It would be irresponsible to speculate. But it’s so, so, so hard not to.   Luckily, Vice President Joe Biden spilled the beans and put an end to the speculation.

“It was me!  I was the one close to Anna  I love Russia!” Biden reportedly told reporters in Kalamazoo.   Many inside the White House and outside the White House doubt that Joe was intimate with Anna but Biden insists.

“I love Russian spies. That’s my thing,” Biden reportedly told a waitress in Peoria.  He even told Jay Leno about his affair.

Chapman appears to have been a pretty incompetent spy. Her crew used what intelligence reporter Jeff Stein termed “primitive radio techniques� and hid loosely encrypted messages in plain sight on the internet She traded in “routine political gossip and policy talk,� as the New York Times put it, rather than real secrets. Bedding a cabinet official would seem to be past her means, comely as they are.

These days, you’re likely to find Chapman on the Russian celebrity circuit, boosting Vladimir Putin’s political machinations, or expressing ambitions for designing bizarre fashions.  So she’s probably unlikely to spill. But if Figliuzzi is anywhere even close to correct, maybe Chapman left clues to her little black book online somewhere.

Rumors are swirling that The Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William are headed for a divorce.

Rumors are that Kate is getting bored with the Royal lifestyle – and William.

The couple have spent the past week in the French Alpine ski resort of Meribel, along with Kate’s parents and her younger brother James. Sister Pippa and her friend George Percy were reportedly there, too – all sharing the same chalet.

Prince Harry has repeatedly said recently that William and Kate are already becoming decidedly middle-aged, even dull.  Their marriage has lost all it’s excitement – and that’s tough to do when you are a Dutchess and Prince.

William prefers staying home, having home-cooked meals and watching DVDs at their Anglesey home rather than going out on the town.

They even turned down an invitation from their friends last week in favor of their holiday with the Middletons. Holly Branson, daughter of Sir Richard, had invited them to join her, Princess Beatrice and her boyfriend Dave Clark at a party at the Branson family chalet in Verbier, Switzerland.

Kate wanted to go, William didn’t.

A source said: ‘They were invited to join Holly and her friends on the slopes but William and Kate chose to go away with her parents instead. Their friends see a lot less of William and Kate these days.’

The couple have vowed to holiday with Kate’s parents at least once a year, as William enjoys a warm rapport with both Carole and Michael, whom he sometimes jokingly refers to as ‘Dad’.

“William doesn’t really go out any more,” said a source close to the couple.  ”Kate never did either, but she doesn’t want to sit on the sofa every night like William wants to.”

Next week, the couple will return to Anglesey for more of that ordinary life as Mr and Mrs Wales, as they like to be known. William will report for his search-and-rescue shifts at RAF Valley as usual, while Kate will be settling back into domesticity.

Rumors are swirling that Kate has met with one of London’s top divorce attorney’s.  ”She wants it to be quick and easy,” said a source close to Kate.

“Kate is still a vibrant, sexy young woman.  She doesn’t want to be a prisoner of her house(s) for the rest of her life.  She wants to have fun.”  Sources close to Kate, say that her sister Pippa is prodding her sister to get a divorce.

Sources say there is a man in the wings, ready to take William’s place:
