...regional sea-level variability, including winds and local currents that push water consistently toward or away from a particular shore. "One of the biggest effects," says the study's lead author, Robert Kopp, who did his research during a postdoctoral fellowship at Princeton, "is gravity." The world's giant ice sheets, such as Greenland's, are so massive that they actually pull the oceans toward them, raising sea level in the surrounding region. "If you were in Scotland, and Greenland started melting," he says, "local sea level would actually fall at first...
...That's not to say that Bad is just an older Dude. Certainly there are similarities - both men wander around with a lowball in hand, pot belly swaying in gentle tandem with the ice clinking against the side of the glass, and Crazy Heart even opens at a bowling alley. But whereas bowling was the Dude's favorite sport and main occupation, for Bad, finding himself performing at a bowling alley in Pueblo, Colo., is a misery.

Stratta decided to get off sugar, fatty meats and carbs after his suit wouldn't fit for an awards reception, sending him into a big-and-tall shop. "I was a size-20 neck. I was mortified. I was like Alex the Neck," he says. In 18 months, he went from 270 lb. to 190 lb., which is below his high school weight. His new rules include starting...
Last Sunday, Cuomo’s tour bus (one of Weezer’s five tour-buses) skidded on ice and ended up going over the guardrail and landing in a ditch, according to CNN. Cuomo was on his way from Toronto to Boston, to perform at Boston University (What?! He wasn’t going to play at his alma mater? That’s karma, Cuomo...
