When Conan O'Brien began conversations with TBS in the spring of 2010, he had one condition that was non-negotiable: he would consider doing a show for the cable network only if the man whose time slot he would be taking over, George Lopez, stays on. Word is TBS had been considering canceling the modestly-rated _Lopez Tonight _at the time but, in their quest for O'Brien, they decided to keep Lopez, moving him to a different time slot. ABC is in a similar position in its pursuit of another former NBC star, Katie Couric, giving her the 3 PM time slot occupied by the soon-to-be only surviving ABC daytime drama,_ General Hospital._ The difference is that the network wouldn't commit to _General Hospital _continuing on the network when the Katie Couric show launches in fall 2012. "We are not announcing the cancellation of _General Hospita_l," Anne Sweeney, president of the Disney/ABC TV Group said today, but also added, "It is important to look at daytime like we do at primetime - it really is about eyeballs, and we will go with the shows that have the most viewership." Given that the network just committed to ... Is Big Media rewarding those writers who went back to work during the 2007–2008 Writers Guild strike? I know that several have since been promoted or received deals. Today, Disney's ABC Daytime replaced Bob Guza Jr with Garin Wolf as head writer of _General Hospital _effective immediately. Not that Guza didn't have an army of detractors among the soap's fans. But while Wolf is certainly uber-qualified as the recipient of 2 Daytime Emmys and part of the _GH_ staff for nearly 15 years, he also is infamous among daytime writers for opting to go Fi-Core during the WGA strike when he stepped in as _GH_ head writer while his guild brethren were walking the picket lines. (Only a handful of WGA members went financial core i.e. resigning from the union yet continuing to receive the benefits of the union contract.) Interesting how the ABC Daytime news release made specal mention of Wolf winning a Writer's Guild Award for his past work on _General Hospital --_ while not mentioning that the post-strike WGA excoriated Wolf as one of the "puny few who consciously and selfishly decided to place their own narrow interests over the greater good". LOS ANGELES, May 11 (UPI) -- The U.S. soap operas "The Bold and the Beautiful," "All My Children" and "General Hospital" were nominated for Daytime Emmy Awards Wednesday. "Money has so permeated our churches that the reward of priesthood is more in heaven, it is here on earth. Last December, a Methodist priest shocked the congregation in a rural setting by demanding at a church service that each member of the congregation make a donation of GH ¢ to him." HSBC Alternative Investments Ltd announces the expansion of its flagship HSBC GH Fund of Hedge Funds to clients holding CNH deposits. The Praise Tabernacle Bible Church International has donated items worth GH ¢1,500 to the Teshie orphanage and Osu Boys Remand and Girls Industrial Training and Probation. At the 2011 New York Auto Show, Lexus unveiled its LF-Gh concept car, which is essentially a next generation GS sedan in auto-show drag. New Vic, Newcastle-under-Lyme Two shows in, and already the New Vic's repertory season is reaping the benefits of a permanent ensemble. Actors with relatively little to do in the Rivals now appear in David Auburn's intellectual teaser about madness and mathematics. Auburn's 1998 drama was inspired by a passage from the memoir of the mathematician GH Hardy, who observed that "in a good proof there is a high degree of unexpectedness, combined with inevitability and economy". Hardy was writing about hard sums, though he might have made an astute drama critic. Catherine's college career has been interrupted by the necessity of caring for her late father, a burned-out professor of calculus whose genius became a torment. An eager grad student is now scouring the professor's notebooks for any lingering flashes of insight. Among the gibberish is what seems to be one final, perfect proof. Only it doesn't appear to be the professor who has written it. If there's a flaw in Auburn's reasoning, it's that it simply becomes impossible to believe that the calculation can fulfil claims to be the theoretical link that will bind all branches of mathematics together. But Gwenda Hughes's quiet, meditative production draws performances ... (John) We wrote here about Josh Riddle and Dave Rufful, two Dartmouth students who use rap to spread their message of conservatism and Christianity. Their web site is The Young Conservatives. The Cons are back with a new video that takes on the Obama/Reid/Pelosi money-hemorrhaging spending regime: The Washington Times interviewed Riddle earlier this month: > **GH: Despite continual attacks, insults, and threats against you and Dave, you continue to irk leftists and spread your message. What's the secret to staying positive as young conservatives?** > > JR: The positive is being able to look ourselves in the mirror every night knowing we don't compromise on our morals or principles. We do what we think is right and try and be good role models for younger kids interested in politics. It is important for them to know that people out there are willing to rise above the rhetoric of left v. right, talk about ideas/numbers/founding principles, and attempt to move forward to a society where freedom reigns supreme. ABC to axe two of its longest-running daytime soaps and replace them with 'lifestyle' programmes featuring reality TV stars All My Children has survived Vietnam, abortion, teen prostitutes, murder and cocaine addiction. Erica Kane, the soap's biggest star, has seen off 10 husbands and once took on a grizzly bear while dressed as a nun. Now the 41 -year-old show has met its match – in reality TV. ABC is to abandon All My Children and rival daytime soap opera One Life To Live, two shows that have been running for a combined 83 years, this summer. They will be replaced by "lifestyle" programmes starring hosts made famous in reality TV shows. Only four daytime soaps will remain, down from 20 in their heyday. The remaining programmes – General Hospital, The Bold and the Beautiful, The Young and the Restless and Days of Our Lives – are slashing costs as audiences desert them for increasingly popular reality shows such as Jersey Shore. Lynn Leahey, editor of Soap Opera Digest, said the news was "very painful", adding that changing demographics were partly to blame. "Women are not at home in the same numbers they used to be ...

METABOLISM - New mechanism explains the role of growth hormone in fatty liver Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common condition that is linked to obesity and insulin resistance. If left untreated, this build up of fat deposits within the liver cells can lead to fibrosis and scarring of the organ. Although not completely understood, aberrant growth hormone (GH) signaling is thought to contribute to the development of this disorder, as genetic deletion of the GH receptor in the livers of mice results in the development of fatty liver. In new research, Ethan J... GhanaWeb, Online news portal, Amsterdam, Netherlands "The Secret Life of Damian Spinelli" is expected to go on sale April 5.
