Pierce Brosnan has made an appearance in the March issue of GQ (on newsstands nationwide February 23). He posed for a photo spread where he tries on a number of suits, showing that he still has a great sense of style. He also had the following to say about his time as James Bond:
It was a no-man’s-land. You never felt the killing was harsh enough, that
the sex was hard enough. And you still had these clunky one-liners, which
were always embarrassing.

The Rules of Attraction
Just in time for Valentine’s day:
Relationship expert Tracy Cox helps you decipher his messages and tells you what they really mean.
February is the month of love and therefore the month which can lead to the most confusion when it comes to the opposite sex. We often feel like we get mixed messages from guys. How many times have you gone to your friends with a text or a Facebook message, crying “what do you think it means?” or been confused over the kisses on a text he sent back “he usually puts three and today it’s just one?” It’s questioning like this that leads to us women going slightly loopy.
The world of digital messaging can be a complex and rather daunting prospect, especially when it comes to working out what he really wants and if he’s really into you. From looking at his tagged pictures and knowing when there is nothing to them, to when to text him if you haven’t heard back after a date. We can become fixated with the “right rules” and end up worrying whether an incorrectly timed response can ruin any chance we had.
Lucky for us, we have the holy grail that we have all been waiting for, our very own relationship expert Tracy Cox. She has teamed up with Confused.com to give you a master class in the world of digital communication, so that you can understand his messages and in turn understand him a little bit more.

Joe Jonas to Guest Star on Brothers & Sisters
Today 2:18 PM PST by Kristin Dos Santos

Did you ever think to yourself: Joe Jonas bears an uncanny resemblance to Balthazar Getty?
No? Well, apparently, the producers over at Brothers & Sisters have, because, although there’s no official word yet from ABC, inside sources tell me Joe will be playing a younger version of Balthazar’s character, Tommy, in a two-episode flashback arc that focuses on the history of the Walker family.
So who else has been cast as the other Walkers? Well, you’ll never guess who Rachel Leigh Cook is in contention to play…
A young Nora Walker, aka Sally Field.
According to sources on the show, Cook has auditioned for the role, but no final decision has been made on young Nora’s casting. Also in the running for Nora are Courtney Ford (known as Trinity’s illegitimate daughter Christina from Dexter and Brandon Routh’s real-life wife) and attention Grey’s Anatomy fans, Nora Zehetner (who played Stinkerbell on season one of Heroes and who is now Alex’s love interest on Grey’s). What does this mean for Alex’s future love life at Seattle Grace? Hmmm…
Kay PanabakerAngela Weiss/Getty Images for Pantages Theater
According to sources, Kay Panabaker, most recently seen in Fame, will play a young Kitty (Calista). Anna Wood will play Sarah (Rachel Griffiths), and Kasey Campbell will play Kevin (Matthew Reis). Pretty awesome resemblance if you ask me.
I’m told quite a few hot guys are lining up in the hopes of playing the show’s dearly departed patriarch, William Walker.
Who would you like to see play the rest of the Walkers? Anyone you think the casting peeps may have overlooked? And are you as psyched about this episode as we are?

Jane Street-Porter “The Power Of Positive Thinking” Web TV show
Positive Thinking Can Do Wonders
Watch this live WebTV show to find out how positive thinking can help you, with Britain’s uber-moaner Janet Street-Porter, who is changing her ways
Chat date: Monday 1st February
Chat time: 2.15pm
Us women are well known for our penchant for moaning and our attitude for complaining. Whether it’s the cold weather, men problems, work or general health, we’re used to putting a negative spin on things. And February is one of the worst months of the year for moaning. Yet, how can we get out of the habit of complaining and start looking at things more positively?
Small things like eating healthy or doing exercise have a huge impact on your mood, releasing endorphins that help fight pain and stress and help you feel great. And by feeling great, you have much less of a need to gripe or whinge and are a far more positive person.
Janet Street-Porter is the UK’s most famous complainer, but while she may be able to handle Gordon Ramsay and the jungle setting of “I’m a Celebrity”, she’s still definitely one to have a moan. On this live WebTV show she will explain what she’s doing to reduce her complaining this February and how you too can think positive.
Tune in to find out what the positive impact of a positive mental attitude can be.
Janet Street-Porter and Amanda Ludlow, Head of Sales and Business Development at Benenden Healthcare Society join us live online at http://www.webchats.tv/chat/positive_thinking_can_do_wonders on Monday 1st February at 2.30pm to discuss positive mental attitudes.

Obesity breakthrough New year-long trial reveals unprecedented weight loss success for obese Brits
A new trial has found that very low calorie diets are far more effective at tackling obesity than conventional diets, potentially putting an end to losing battles among drastically overweight Britons.
More than one in five women in the UK are overweight (21%*), with a similar number of men (17%) who measure a body mass index (BMI) of over 30. In comparison, a healthy weight is a BMI of between 20 and 25 according to the British Nutrition Foundation.
In a 12 month study, adult men and women with a BMI at or above 35 were entered a clinical trial of different diet interventions with the aim of achieving a five per cent weight loss. An initial test of eating 600 less calories per day than the recommended daily allowance for men/women. Those who failed to achieve the 5% weight loss were then put on either the low carbohydrate, high protein diet (LCHP) and a very low calorie diet (VLCD). The latter eating plan drastically cuts the amount of calories consumed by relying on diet of milkshakes.
At the end of the year-long trial, the average weight loss for the VLCD was 31 kilograms, compared to just four kilograms for the low carb/high protein diet, one of the country’s current fashionable eating fads.
The very low calorie programme, known as LighterLife, was also twice as successful as those who stuck with eating just 600 less calories per day, which reduced obese Brits’ weight by an average of 18kg. It also resulted in increased cardiovascular benefits and improvements in cholesterol.
The study was led by Professor Iain Broom, the director of the Centre for Obesity Research and Epidemiology at Robert Gordon University and a professor of metabolic medicine at the University of Aberdeen.
Professor Broom said: “This shows how a very low calorie diet can provide excellent weight loss for obese people in both the short and long term, including those patients who have failed other dietary approaches.”
“The cholesterol benefits are also considerable, as are the lean body mass results which demonstrate that patients see the very same changes in their body composition as those on a conventional diet – there was no difference in the amount of lean body mass change, suggesting that cardiac muscle was not affected by VLCD therapy.”
The study supports what LighterLife seeks to achieve with every client who undertakes it, greater weight loss results and an immediate solution to the side effects obesity such as high cholesterol and restricted movement. It demonstrates that for people living with obesity a very low calorie diet can be the solution they’ve been looking for.
