WHAT SHOULD I KNOW ABOUT HIGH CHOLESTEROL?

cholesterol is made up of LDL and HDL cholesterol. LDL cholesterol is called â&#x20AC;&#x153;badâ&#x20AC;? cholesterol because it can build up in the wall of your arteries and form plaque. Over time, plaque build-up can cause a narrowing of the arteries. This narrowing can slow or block blood ďŹ&#x201A;ow to your heart, brain, and other organs. High LDL cholesterol is a major cause of heart disease and one of the causes for stroke. HDL cholesterol is called â&#x20AC;&#x153;goodâ&#x20AC;? cholesterol because it keeps the bad cholesterol from building up in the arteries. Triglycerides also are fats found in your blood.

THE WHORE OF AKRON

Neal Stephenson, ﬁction ($35)

Scott Raab, nonﬁction ($26)

This rollicking thrill ride (the title is an email misspelling of “Read me”) caroms between a World of Warcraft– like online universe called T’Rain, money-laundering Russian gangsters, and a jihadist group intent on mayhem. Caught in the middle are a few tech-smart kids and one zillionaire who used to be just like them. Stephenson somehow makes his crazy setup entirely plausible and tons of fun.

Being a Cleveland sports fan, Raab writes, requires enduring “a half-century of season-ending defeats so naked in their bitterness that they had become national legend.” Like other Clevelanders, he took LeBron James’s leaving the Cavaliers—without winning an NBA championship— for the Miami Heat in July 2010 as the worst kind of betrayal. Though this book is

meant as a cynical, vengeful account of James’s ﬁrst year with the Heat, it’s more a hilarious and profane love letter to fandom, faith, loyalty, and sports in America.

She treats her family like special guests, even serving simple eggs on a china plate with a gorgeous fork. Eating at her house is an incredible experience. My perfect bite at Thanksgiving is a bit of turkey, wholecranberry sauce, and Grandma Helen’s stufﬁng on a fork, followed by a small sip of champagne. Eat, and repeat.

SCIATICA BACK PAIN?

Ask Marilyn By Marilyn vos Savant

Economic growth refers to escalating productive transactions from the use of natural resources, technology development, labor, etc. It doesn’t correspond to population growth. A “growing” economy is one in which more and more of these buy-and-sell activities occur, regardless of the number of people involved. In other words, an economy can grow with a stable population. Economic growth is what raises our standard of living. An economy can be perfectly sound without an expanding output of goods and services, but the quality of everyday life won’t increase rapidly, if at all.

In this adaptation of the acclaimed novel, newcomer Horn (discovered when he was a Jeopardy! Kids Week champion) plays a boy who loses his doting dad (Hanks, right, with Horn) in the 9/11 attacks, then clashes with his mom (Bullock) as they grieve. Oscar buzz is building for the ensemble, but will Horn continue with acting? Though director Stephen Daldry calls the young actor “the real deal,” he thinks Horn might be poised for bigger things: “He’s Legal Notice

LG has agreed to extend the manufacturer’s limited warranty covering the costs of parts and labor for repairs necessitated by the actual manifestation of the light remaining on when the door is closed, and/or reimbursement for payment of certain repairs related to damage from the light remaining on when the door is closed. How to Get Reimbursement? You will need to submit a Claim Form to get any reimbursement. You can submit a Claim Form by mail. The deadline to submit a Claim Form is November 7, 2012. Your Other Rights. If you do nothing, your rights will be affected. If you don’t want to be legally bound by the Settlement, you must exclude yourself from the Settlement. The deadline to exclude yourself is January 5, 2012. If you do not exclude yourself you will not be able to sue LG or Sears for any claim relating to the lawsuit. If you stay in the Settlement, you may object to it by January 5, 2012. The Court will hold a hearing on January 17, 2012 to consider whether to approve the Settlement and a request for attorneys’ fees of up to $1 million.

Director Guy Ritchie says this sequel to his 2009 adventure flick is like the first film “on steroids.” Expect bigger explosions, showier stunts, and a more formidable villain in Professor Moriarty (Jared Harris), the sleuth’s classic nemesis. Rapace (star of the Swedish films based on Stieg Larsson’s thrillers) joins the cast, and Law’s Watson gets married, triggering Holmes’s jealousy. “He’s always going to be humorously slighted by anything that detracts from Watson’s attentions,” says Ritchie. The Adventures of Tintin | Dec. 21 STARRING Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis, Daniel Craig

“Belgium has three big exports: chocolate, beer, and Tintin,” says Bell, who voices the globe-trotting, mysterysolving teen journalist of Belgian artist Hergé’s comicbook series. Tintin was never as big in America as he is overseas, but director Steven Spielberg is a huge fan. Using motion-capture animation, where the actors perform their characters’ movements wearing hundreds of sensors, Spielberg teamed up with coproducer Peter Jackson to create an Indiana Jones–style romp—it involves sunken treasure—that may change the lad’s fortunes stateside. “In any other country,” Bell adds, “Tintin’s hair is as iconic as Indy’s fedora.”

HARBOR FREIGHT TOOLS Quality Tools at Ridiculously Low Prices

Hugo | Nov. 23 STARRING Asa Butterﬁeld,

An orphaned boy (Butterfield) in 1930s Paris finds a link between his late father and the pioneering filmmaker Georges Méliès, in this first family film (and 3-D feature) from director Martin Scorsese. Based on the YA best seller The Invention of Hugo Cabret, it’s filled with the wonder and whimsy of movies—and there’s nary a goodfella in sight. The Iron Lady | Dec. 16 STARRING Meryl Streep,

Jim Broadbent

Streep (below) transforms herself into Margaret Thatcher for a biopic of the polarizing British prime minister. “It looks at what she might have felt as a woman in a political world dominated by men, and as someone from a more humble background who found herself in a patrician party,” says director Phyllida Lloyd. “She was a double outsider.”

STARRING Jeremy Irvine,

Emily Watson, David Thewlis

This story of a steed pressed into service during World War I has enthralled audiences as a play, in which the horses are portrayed using puppets. Now director Steven Spielberg has translated it to the screen with real animals. “It’s the horse’s story told from the horse’s point of view, and Steven has that E.T. empathy with creatures,” says Watson, who plays the mother of the rural lad (Irvine) whose beloved thoroughbred goes off to battle.

Sunday with ... or dr. oz, thinking

big comes naturally: He performs 100 heart operations every year while hosting an Emmy-winning daily talk show. Jennifer Rainey Marquez spoke with the surgeon, 51, about his latest big idea, Dr. Oz’s Transformation Nation: Million Dollar You.

Do you have a favorite orite moment from all your appearances on The he Oprah Winfrey Show? ow?

After several guest appearances, I had gotten pretty comfortable, and I was doing a segment about gas. I said to the audience that the average person passes gas 14 times a day, and so it was likely that Ms. Winfrey had done so during the episode. Luckily, Oprah met my statement with uproarious laughter, and it was a priceless, hysterical moment.

PARADE We’ve all read the headlines on how Americans are so unhealthy—but you believe we can turn it around. DR. OZ: Yes, I do. Fundamentally,

it’s about making it easy to do the right thing. And in America, we make it hard to do the right thing. Junk food is cheap—gym memberships cost money. A lot of our behaviors are on the path of least resistance, and that’s not often a path to good health. My Transformation Nation challenge is taking the difﬁcult part—ﬁguring out how to get healthy—and making it easy by providing people with a plan for transforming their entire lives. And the million-dollar prize is hopefully some extra motivation. You’re known for healthy eating— do you ever indulge?

I do practice what I preach when it comes to nutrition. I eat Greek yogurt and blueberries for breakfast every day. But I think it’s okay to indulge ndulge on special occasions, and my favorite indulgence is Memphis-style or Texas barbecue. Iff

so dejected, and my wife, Lisa, suggested that TV V would help me get through to more ore people.

What’s a typical Sunday like for the Oz family?

Lisa and I love to get outside with our four kids. We go hiking, apple picking, even skiing. I also love watching football; I played on the college team at Harvard. But my favorite show is House.

Mehmet Oz The talk show host on football, Oprah, and his new plan to transform Americans’ health

you’re going to run up a lot of calories, you should choose something you love. What would people be surprised to learn about you?

Well, I weighed more than 200 pounds in college. I was an athlete, and I was eating a lot and lifting a lot of weights. Also, I’m a huge music lover, especially southern rock. I love Lynyrd Skynyrd to this day.

What inspired you to get your start in TV?

Several years ago, I performed bypass surgery on a 25-year-old woman, and she celebrated afterwards with a fast-food meal. I was

You’re devoting much of your third season to the Transformation challenge. What do you hope to achieve?

A lot of folks believe their best years are behind them. But I want Americans to recognize that’s not true. No matter how old you are, no matter how much you weigh, you can still control the health of your body.

D∏. OZ’S T∏ANSFO∏MATION NATION CHALLENGE Check out Parade.com/oz tomorrow and every Monday for exclusive video messages from Dr. Oz, and look for his weekly tips starting next Sunday in PARADE.

Holidays to Remember Talk of sports and politics, a bit of nostalgia, and a family prayer— how the Morning Joe hosts plan to celebrate Thanksgiving this year MB: Our show reminds me a

lot of my family’s Thanksgiving table growing up. I have a brother who is a Republican and another who is a Democrat. My father [former national security advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski] used to create his own version of strategic warfare at the dinner table. Most of the time, it ended with a really great family debate. Sometimes it ended badly on the front lawn. There was one really bad dinner during the Iraq war, and my brothers, Mark and Ian, did not handle each other well. Plus, my mom’s nutty and fun—she used to make us all giddy by bringing our horse, Strawberry, into the house at Thanksgiving and Christmas. That horse was amazingly nimble. JS: I didn’t have a former national security advisor for a father. My father was a businessman, and we moved around a lot before settling in Florida. We rarely talked politics. We would get together and play catch-up, trying to ﬁgure out what everybody had been doing for the year. Now, at this stage, I’m interested in having my kids talk. I’ve got younger kids, 8 and 3, but also boys coming

back from college. Joey, my older son, and I usually spend way too much time talking about sports. I can tell you already that we’ll be talking about Alabama Crimson Tide football and the Boston Red Sox, singing the praises of Alabama and wondering what went wrong in Boston. MB: My kids are 13 and 15. I have so much respect for how my parents were able to get us to conduct those political conversations, although it wasn’t always

pretty. I have two daughters, and if we can get through dinner without one searing the other with a vicious comment, we consider that a good night. JS: As I’ve gotten older, I use the dinner to talk more about our family and the grandparents my

kids hardly knew, and what things were like for us growing up. MB: We’ll talk about the election, definitely the economy. My father will probably try to give some perspective to my daughters about the world they’re growing up in. For him, no topic is too big for a child. He always reminds me to not leave them out of the conversation because of their age. JS: This year is going to be our first Thanksgiving without my dad, so I’m sure we’ll talk a good bit about him. At Thanksgiving dinners, he was famous for offering the longest prayer in the history of Christendom. He would literally thank God for everything that had happened in the previous 12 months while my mother was tapping her foot, wondering if her food was going cold, and the kids were getting restless. I will not burden my children with that. But we’ll certainly miss him terribly. It’ll be tough for my mom. This will be the first time in 55 years that she’ll have Thanksgiving without him. We’ve started holding hands and praying before dinner, which we had stopped doing for a while. It’s our way of reconnecting. Our children’s lives are so much more hectic than ours were growing up. Thanksgiving dinner and the entire four-day weekend is a perfect time to bring everybody together and talk about those who got us to where we are. Tune in to Morning Joe weekdays from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m on MSNBC.

EdenPURE ranked #1 in North America ®

Save $192 - biggest savings ever Bob Vila, America’s Favorite Home Improvement Expert, Canton, Ohio

I know why millions of Americans are saving on their heating bills with the EdenPURE ® Infrared Portable Heater. And now you can save up to $192, our lowest prices ever on the new 2012 EdenPURE® Personal Heater. The heater I personally rank #1 in North America. For over 30 years as your home improvement television host, I have reviewed and experienced thousands of products. I have an EdenPURE ® in my Massachusetts home and found it to be a very safe and reliable source of portable heat. This is one of those few comfort investments I can recommend for your home that will truly pay dividends. We all know heating costs are expected to remain at record levels. The cost of heating our homes will continue to be a significant burden on the family budget. The EdenPURE® can cut your heating bills, pay for itself in a matter of weeks, and then start putting a great deal of extra money in your pocket after that. With over one million satisfied customers around the world, the new EdenPURE ® heats better, faster, saves more on heating bills, and runs almost silent. A major cause of residential fires in the United States is portable heaters. The choice of fire and safety professionals everywhere, the EdenPURE® has no exposed heating elements that can cause a fire. The outside of the EdenPURE® only gets warm to the touch so that it will not burn children or pets. And your pet may be just like my dog who has reserved a favorite spot near the EdenPURE®. Accept no imitations. The EdenPURE® can also help you feel better. Unlike EdenPURE® imitators, it will not reduce humidity or oxygen in the room. These imitators use ce-

How it works:

1. Electricity ignites powerful SYLVANIA infrared lamps. 2. The quartz infrared lamp gently warms the patented copper heating chambers.

ramic plates instead of our patented copper. Cheap ceramic plates reduce humidity, dry out your sinuses and make your skin dry. With other heating sources, you'll notice that you get sleepy when the heat comes on because they are burning up oxygen. The advanced space-age EdenPURE ® also heats the room evenly, wall to wall and floor to ceiling. Other heating sources heat rooms unevenly with most of the heat concentrated high and to the center of the room. And as you know, portable heaters only heat an area a few feet around the heater. With the EdenPURE®, the temperature will not vary in any part of the room. How can a person cut their heating bill with the EdenPURE®? First, the EdenPURE® uses less energy to create heat than many other sources, but that is just part of why it will cut a person’s heating bill. The EdenPURE® will heat a room in minutes. You will immediately notice the difference! Therefore, you can turn the heat down in your

house to as low as 50 degrees, but the room you are occupying, which has the EdenPURE ® , will be warm and comfortable. Your EdenPURE ® easily moves from room to room. Using zone heating keeps you comfortable and reduces your heating bills. This can drasti-

cally cut heating bills; in some instances, the savings may be substantial. The EdenPURE® will pay for itself in weeks. It will keep a great deal of extra money in a user’s pocket. Because of today’s spiraling gas, oil, propane, and other energy costs, the EdenPURE® will provide even greater savings as time goes by.

Presenting the ÂŽ

When we introduced the original Acoustic WaveÂŽ music system, Sound & Vision said it delivered â&#x20AC;&#x153;possibly the best-reproduced sound many people have ever heard.â&#x20AC;? And the Oregonian reported it had â&#x20AC;&#x153;changed the way many Americans listen to music.â&#x20AC;? Today, the improved Acoustic WaveÂŽ music system II builds on our more than 40 years of industry-leading innovation to deliver even better sound. This is the best-performing all-in-one music system weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever made, with sound that rivals large and complicated stereos. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no stack of equipment. No tangle of wires. Just all-in-one convenience and lifelike sound. With recently developed BoseÂŽ technologies, our engineers were able to make the acclaimed sound even more natural. We believe youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll appreciate the quality even at volume levels approaching that of a live performance.

This small system fits almost anywhere. You can move it from room to room, or take it outside. It has what you need to enjoy your music, including a built-in CD player and digital FM/AM tuner. You also can easily connect additional sources like your iPod,ÂŽ iPadÂŽ or TV.
