Jesus Take The Wheel: Couple Who Hosted Self Help Show Commits Suicide By Suffocating Themselves With Plastic Bags

The irony of hosting a self help show and then offing yourselves. SMH. Couple Who Hosted Self Help Show Commits Suicide According to The NY Post They were the ones who needed help. A Brooklyn couple famous for hosting a self-help radio show committed suicide by suffocating themselves with plastic bags in Park Slope, police sources and witnesses said. Psychotherapist Lynne Rosen, 46, and her motivational speaker husband John Littig, 48 — who appeared on WBAI-FM’s “The Pursuit of Happiness” — were found dead in the living room of their President Street and Eighth Avenue apartment, sources said. On the monthly show, the couple offered callers advice on how to live a happier life, sometimes tossing in inspirational quotes from Albert Einstein and Eleanor Roosevelt. Neighbors living on the couple’s quiet brownstone-lined street called news of the double suicide sad — and painfully ironic. “Everyone is shocked… Everyone is wondering why,” said one neighbor. “That’s really distressing that they were life coaches, handing out advice to people,” she added. Another neighbor noted the couple, who had been together 20 years, was very private. “John was a very nice person. Lynne kept to herself… She was always putting on a lot of weight and taking it off,” the neighbor said. Littig was also a drummer who used the performance name “Jadex.” The pair was sometimes spotted on the tree-lined street walking their dog. At one point, on the radio show, Rosen encouraged her fans to fight depression with a positive attitude. “Push yourself when there’s nothing left to go on,” she said.”Remember, positivity is precious.” The couple was found dead on Monday morning. Something tells us there is more to this story. If they hosted a self help show, then it seems like they would able to work out their problems. Do you think they were killed and it was made to look like a suicide? Youtube

Aww! Jay-Z’s Momma Gloria Carter Says He Melts When His Blue Ivy Bundle Of Joy Calls Him Papa

Good to see Jay-Z is such a great dad. Jay-Z Melts When Blue Ivy Calls Him Papa According to US Magazine Jay-Z is one lucky man. The “Suit & Tie” rapper has a bevy of beautiful women in his life, including wife Beyonce, mom Gloria Carter, and 16-month-old daughter Blue Ivy. The proud first-time dad can hardly hide his joy when he spends time with his adorable bundle of joy, Carter told Us Weekly exclusively at a Mother’s Day event in support of her Shawn Carter Foundation on Saturday, May 11. “It warms my heart to see how he interacts with his daughter,” she told Us. “And when she says, ‘Papa,’ he just melts. He’s a great dad.” Carter added that she’s fully enjoying her role as grandmother to Blue, 16 months, after having raised Jay-Z and his three siblings single-handedly while also holding down a job as an investment analyst for the city of New York. “The amazing thing about being a grandmother is that you go get the kids, but when you’re tired, you can take them home!” she said with a laugh. (When asked if the superstar couple would want more grandchildren, Carter responded with an “I think so!”) Her own “baby” right now is the Shawn Carter Foundation, an organization that provides scholarship money for kids who have low GPAs and wouldn’t be able to afford schooling otherwise. “When I did this, [Jay-Z] said ‘Ma, this is your baby.’ But when I need him to be here, he’s here because he believes in it too.” As for baby Blue, who is currently learning the meaning of “hello” and “bye bye,” picking up on things doesn’t seem like it’s been an issue so far. “She’s very very smart,” Carter shared with Us. “But [the TV show Babies Choice] teaches the babies that when you say hello, that means you’re going to be around. But when you say, ‘bye bye,’ it means you’re going to disappear. So when you’re around her, when she looks at you and she’s tired of you, she looks at you and she says, ‘bye bye!’” “So with me I’m like, ‘No bye bye! No bye bye!’” she added with a laugh. Blue Ivy is going to grow up to be the next Albert Einstein the way everyone is praising her intelligence. Cheers hoping she grows a multimillion dollar empire like mommy and daddy. Wenn/Fame Flynet

Development of Tiny Thorium Reactors Could Wean the World Off Oil In Just Five Years

An abundant metal with vast energy potential could quickly wean the world off oil, if only Western political leaders would muster the will to do it, a UK newspaper says today. The Telegraph makes the case for thorium reactors as the key to a fossil-fuel-free world within five years, and puts the ball firmly in President Barack Obama's court. Thorium, named for the Norse god of thunder, is much more abundant than uranium and has 200 times that metal's energy potential. Thorium is also a more efficient fuel source — unlike natural uranium, which must be highly refined before it can be used in nuclear reactors, all thorium is potentially usable as fuel. The Telegraph says thorium could be used as an energy amplifier in next-generation nuclear power plants, an idea conceived by Nobel laureate Carlo Rubbia, former director of CERN. Known as an accelerator-driven system, it would use a particle accelerator to produce a proton beam and aim it at lump of heavy metal, producing excess neutrons. Thorium is a good choice because it has a high neutron yield per neutron absorbed. Thorium nuclei would absorb the excess neutrons, resulting in uranium-233, a fissile isotope that is not found in nature. Moderated neutrons would produce fissioned U-233, which releases enough energy to power the particle accelerator, plus an excess that can drive a power plant. Rubbia says a fistful of thorium could light up London for a week. The idea needs refining, but is so promising that at least one private firm is getting involved. The Norwegian firm Aker Solutions bought Rubbia's patent for this thorium fuel cycle, and is working on his design for a proton accelerator. The Telegraph says this $1.8 billion (

City Bees Go to Church in London and Get Saved

Image from the Times The plight of the bumblebee is a matter of great concern. Their numbers are declining, some species are on the brink of extinction and colony collapse disorder has spread in the U.S. Albert Einstein may (or may not) have said that “If the bee disappears from the surface of the earth, man would have no more than four years to live.” The City of London is celebrating bees by putting hives on the roof of 8 different build… Read the full story on TreeHugger

Pill to live past 100 years old 2 years away

PEOPLE will be given pills to live healthily beyond 100 within TWO YEARS, a top professor revealed yesterday. The drugs – a spin-off from research into age-related illnesses such as Alzheimer's – are already being developed. Professor Nir Barzilai, one of the world's leading experts on ageing, said as he joined fellow scientists at a London conference: “Pharmaceutical companies are developing these drugs now. “They will probably be available for testing from 2012.” The astonishing breakthrough follows intensive research into what makes cells die – and why some people dodge major illnesses such as cancer, diabetes and dementia to live beyond 100 still fit as a fiddle. The New York professor's own team at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine has pinpointed genetic variants that let people live to a “ripe old age”. Those blessed with anti-ageing genes tend not to get seriously ill towards the end of their lives – but die suddenly. Professor Barzilai, among experts at a Royal Society summit on ageing, said: “I'm seeing 100-year-olds who are not only 100 years old but in great shape… For full story clic this link http://www.waneenterprises.com/forums/4/760/1 added by: Wizzane

Two-year-old has Einstein IQ

Oscar Wrigley, a two-year-old with the same IQ as Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking, has become the youngest boy in Britain to be accepted into Mensa. Assessors at the Gifted Children's Information Centre in Solihull said Oscar, with an IQ of at least 160, is one of the brightest children they have every come across. He has been ranked in the 99.99th percentile of the population and has been ranked off the scale as the Stanford-Binet test cannot measure higher than 160
