Men at Work



It’s up to a pair of trash-hauling heroes to clean up the city in this action-comedy starring real-life brothers Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez. Garbage men James (Estevez) and Carl (Sheen) dream of opening a surf shop, but often land in hot water due to their practical jokes. When they learn the body of a murdered politician on their route, they attempt to sniff out the killer themselves a terrible thought that rapidly ensnares them in a toxic waste scandal. Soon, they’re thrown headlong into a ma


Charlie sheen arrested



Charlie sheen arrested


Actor Charlie Sheen was arrested by Aspen police today on felony domestic violence charges.


Police were summoned by a 9-1-1 call to a home at 320 West Hallam St. at about 8:30 a.m..


Sheen posted an ,500 bond and was released from jail at about 7 p.m. after speaking with a county judge, Aspen police said this evening.


Police aren’t identifying the alleged victim because department policy forbids identifying potential domestic abuse victims.


Booked into the county lockup under his real name, Carlos Irwin Estevez, Sheen was arrested on charges of felony second-degree assault, felony menacing and a misdemeanor charge of criminal mischief, according to the Pitkin County Sheriff’s Department. His hometown was listed as Encino, Calif.


His first court appearance is schedule for Feb. 8.


Sheen’s publicist Stan Rosenfield released a statement: “It would benefit everyone not to jump to any conclusion.”


Sheen married 29-year old real estate investor and actress Brooke Mueller last year and she gave birth to twins, Max and Bob, in March.


The five-bedroom home where Sheen was arrested is for sale for .45 million, owned by an Carbondale investment company, according to real estate records.


The 44-year-ancient actor is the star of the CBS show “Two and a Half Men” and a prolific movie actor whose credits include “Platoon,” “Wall Street” and “Major League.” He is a commercial spokesman for Hanes Underwear, sometimes opposite basketball legend Michael Jordan.


His relationships have been tabloid fodder before, including a bitter divorce and custody battle with actress Denise Richards in 2006.


In 1990, he was living with actress Kelly Preston, now the wife of John Travolta, when he accidentally shot in her in the arm in their apartment. The wound needed only a few stitches. The relationship finished soon after.


In 1998 Sheen was hospitalized after he overdosed when he injected cocaine. He entered a court-ordered rehab. He also fueled gossip magazines in the late 1990s when he dated porn stars Ginger Lynn and Heather Hunter.


Sheen has five children: two sons with Mueller, two daughters with Richards and a 25-year-ancient daughter, Cassandra Jade Estevez, he had with former girlfriend Paula Profit.


He is the son of actor Martin Sheen and the brother of actor Emilio Estevez.



Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller set record straight on why their twin son, Max, hasn’t come home from the hospital.

Obama Gun Grabbing: Should Guns Be Available To Mentally Ill People? – Green Celebrity Network



Goodnight America, and may you have sweet dreams.  Dream about how you’ve forgotten Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.  May your minds rest at ease as flags blow in the breeze.  Can we now get on with our lives forgetting why he died.  Go ahead and sleep while freedom barely sings, we all owe so much to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.


You may wonder why I say that, and I’ll tell you that it’s because it’s right.  We have forgotten.  We bicker and fight as if what we’re fighting for is what’s truly vital.  We scramble and scrape over our so called gun rights.  Who gave you the right to take another person’s life?  Talking heads and so called heirs to the legend of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. claim to know what we would have championed next.  They claim that he would’ve supported wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.  They claim Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. would have celebrated interracial marriage and dating because of the phrase “small black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers”.  But did he say little black boys and little white girls or vice versa?  No he didn’t!  So how can you know unless you knew him?


We can’t.  Therefore we have to look past the words and into the meaning of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was not a legend, he was not a myth, he was not perfect.  He was flawed as we all are but he made the best of his flaws.  He studied and worked hard.  He was an brilliant orator, thinker, debater, writer, etc.  Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. is an brilliant example for us to follow but not idolize.  We should be looking to his words and foundations, not as a ceiling above which we can go no higher.


Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wanted excellence of himself, his family, and his people, his Nation and this world.  So as you go to sleep tonight try NOT to forget Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  Keep his teachings in your heart, in your minds, in your actions.  Let the exterior become unimportant and make your decisions based on what a person shows you is his or her character.  As you dream, dream of a day when we no longer need, to legislate equality, dream of a day when the walls that separate us come down, dream of a day when the best of us shines through before the worst rears its head.  On that day is when we will have realized the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.


Pleased MLK Jr. Day everyone! It is with a sad heart today America looks back and celebrates.


Remember: the world will only change for the better when we stop thinking nothing we do matters and start thinking, everything we do matters.

Resistant Starch Foods: Will They Make You Thin? – Huffington Post



Resistant starch foods will make you thin, says Health Magazine. These foods help people “eat less, burn more calories, feel more energized and less stressed, and lower cholesterol,” according to the International Business Times.


So what are resistant starch foods?


Bread, cereal, potatoes, bananas, black beans, oats, barley, bulgur, brown rice, corn flakes, and granola are just a few foods that are a part of what’s become known as “The Skinny Carb Diet,” according to the IB Times.


These foods, according to About.com, really spur digestion as they provide fuel for bacteria in the colon that aid the process.


Resistant starch has come into the media lately as they have received praise from the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) and World Health Organization (WHO). The Health Magazine piece is based on research from the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center for Human Nutrition, according to the IB Times.


From the International Business Times:



The research claims that Resistant Starch foods also shrink stout cells, increase muscle mass, curb cravings, and keep people feeling full for longer.


The WHO also confirmed that they promote satiation and decreases subsequent hunger.


Furthermore, of the 4,451 subjects studied by the University of Colorado, the slimmest ones ate the most carbs (from whole grains, fruits, and vegetables) and the heaviest ones ate the least carbs.
