HUERTA: Yes, it seems that there is some male menopause. It's called "andropause." And there are symptoms that are present in men after 55 to 60 years of age.
GUPTA: Lots of questions coming in on this topic. Testosterone again, for low testosterone and people who have -- want to combat aging.
Let's go to Chris in California, who asks, "Is testosterone replacement therapy safe for 40-year-old men?"
So Doctor, like Chris, millions suffer from the condition of low testosterone. First of all, is the therapy safe for them?
HUERTA: Absolutely not. I would say not. We just talked about prostate cancer controversy. There's a big controversy regarding the use of testosterone. I would warn men that please do not jump on using these products, because we don't know the safety of this treatment. We just learned for estrogens, Dr. Gupta, how we u...
GUPTA: Not for everyone, just for people who have possible low testosterone level. Good advice there.

FEIG: Eating fruit can reduce your risk of macular degeneration, the leading cause of blindness in people over 65. The study in the "Archives of Ophthalmology" found those who ate three or more servings of fruit a day had a 36 percent risk for the disease, than those who ate less than one and a half servings daily.
And a study in the "Journal of the American Medical Association" estimates 75 percent of adolescents eat fast food at least once a week. All in the study were more likely to overeat when served fast food. But those who were lean balanced it out by eating less at other meals. Overweight youngsters did not.

um.... the pico-power gun is cool and your mods are cool but it doesnt fall into the pico category. my pico is not modified, but i have 3 rubberbands on it and it goes about 75 feet. 20 feet sux.
very nice... but there are like 10-15 guns like this already. the lord
This was the second one.
i dont understand how to fire it. could you please elaberate for me?
Well, after you build this gun, all you need to do is pull the firing pin back, put the trigger in place by blocking it from going through the barrel, and pull the trigger down. Saavy?:)

Starpulse Exclusive: Get An Inside Look At 'Cane' With Paola Turbay
October 26th, 2007 10:05am EDT favorite Add to My News
Paola TurbayA famous face in Latin America, Paola Turbay is making an impact in the states this season by playing Jimmy Smit's wife on the CBS drama Cane. The show centers on the rivalries and power struggles of a large Cuban-American family that owns a rum and sugar empire in South Florida. Starpulse had the pleasure ...
How do you like working on the show so far?
I love it. It's got a great cast, scriptwriting, and production is impeccable. I'm really proud of it. I've been really careful choosing my roles, because sometimes they don't always work out. You take this huge cast and production on this amazing network CBS, and put it all together, it is definitely so fulfilling.
Paola Turbay on Cane
How fun that you get to work with Jimmy Smits!
Can you ask for more? All my work had been done through Colombia and then this year the agency said it's time to move from Miami (where I lived). When you move out here (LA), your perception of the people changes. This was my first audition and I was the first to try for the part. I went to my call-back and Jimmy was t...
I think you made a good choice. Perhaps "Cane" will run long enough to eventually make you its matriarch.
You mean in about 40 years? (laughs) When I get to Rita's age, I hope I will be as beautiful as she is. When people ask me, I tell them when I grow up I want to be like Rita Moreno. She is so wonderful, and she's 75 years old. Her body is still amazing and sexy. Hector is in his 70s, too, and any 30-year-old would be a...
We hope that Pancho (Elizondo) won't be leaving the show too quickly.
I hope not, too. At the beginning, the writers have a whole storyline, but depending on the audience, then they decide what has to happen. His role is so important; he's a factor in the whole family. It always happens (on TV.) Doctors give you three months and it takes you 30 years to die.
With the people I work with now, it's completely different than any other production we've been in, like when we have family scenes at the table. Everybody's talking and we're having fun when in other productions it might be more serious, proper, and professional.
