Ankara - Nine Turkish track and field athletes have been banned for two years after testing positive for anabolic steroids. The IAAF said on Wednesday that six of the athletes are women, including two teenagers, reports Xinhua. Six cases involved field athletes testing positive for stanozolol at Turkey’s national university championships held in May at Bursa. The IAAF said 17-year-old discus thrower Burcu Akmazolu tested positive for both banned drugs....

Choose an old pair of underpants. That way you will not mind so much if they get stained and you can use them as a spare for emergencies. You can also try to wear shorts that are wide to conceal the pad (if you are using one). Loose, elasticized clothing is ideal for bloating and comfort. Sweatpants and sweatshirts are great clothing for when you are on your period. Try using period panties....

First of all, the machine is beautiful, a piece of organically aerodynamic sculpture more good-looking—and a lot sexier—than most Henry Moores. The rear half of the Veyron embraces the front portion, cuddling it between crescent-shaped side air ducts while affectionately reaching (the gesture denoted by a lovely two-tone paint job) over the passenger cabin down the hood to the traditional arched-doorway Bugatti radiator opening. The Veyron’s details—big fan-blade wheels that fill the wheel wells with just a sliver of room to spare, a snakily contoured spoiler in back and a lidless engine compartment (too much heat for a hood!...

The clubby Whitney Grill (in a hotel that used to be a flour mill) is the popular choice. But you might try D’Amico Cucina for upscale Italian food or Yvette’s, across the river, for French. The Market Bar-B-Que has the best ribs in town. Monte Carlo has great home-style food for pregame brunch; Nikki’s, in the hip warehouse district, redefines macaroni and cheese. And the Cherokee Sirloin Room in St....

NEWSWEEK’s Tokyo correspondent Bill Powell calculates that the Japanese will actually get their money back quickly. Here’s how: in late September, nearly two months after the invasion of Kuwait, oil prices shot up to $34 a barrel. They have since dropped to around $19 a barrel, and oil experts say that they’re likely to fall lower as Kuwaiti production comes back onstream. If you take the $15-a-barrel differential between September and now and multiply it by Japan’s daily consumption of 3....

Whether you’re male or female, the basic necessities for sexual activity are the same: working sexual anatomy, normal hormone activity and enough physical and mental health to respond to another person. But when it comes to satisfying sex, men and women are different. Visual cues tend to propel men toward the tangible goals of erection, intercourse and orgasm. A woman’s sex drive can be just as potent, but an emotional connection to her partner plays a larger role in arousal and satisfaction....

Trade negotiatiors hadn’t seen this much excitement since April. That was when Zhu arrived in the United States with a package of concessions that the Clinton administration made public and then abruptly rejected, sending Zhu home empty-handed to face a barrage of criticism from hard-liners. American businesses were furious; they’ve been struggling for years to do business within China’s murky legal framework, and the terms were better than anything they’d ever seen....

Of the 131 ODIs played between them so far, India has won 54, while Pakistan has won 73 matches. This slightly one-sided nature of the encounter, at least as is implied from the statistics, owes in no small part to the matches held at Sharjah. And it was not just the fearsome Pakistani pace bowlers – Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Imran Khan and Aaquib Javed – that terrorized the Indian batsmen....

At a time when food fetishists obsessively track the provenance of radishes and happily wait months to score a reservation, a taste of Texas sounds perfect. Fearing’s is unpretentious, not crazy expensive and lots of fun—it may just be one of the best new spots in the country. It’s a restaurant that knows what it wants to be. Chicken-fried steak is not only identified with Texas, it was invented there (by German immigrants to the Hill Country attempting to replicate wiener schnitzel)....

This new film, which is somehow a little hard to pronounce, is a direct sequel to the classic film, consisting of (nearly) the same characters and a setting that is made explicitly to create a nostalgia that we identify with Christmas. Taking place in 1973, A Christmas Story Christmas is set over thirty years after the events of the first one and follows an adult Peter Billingsley, who reprises his role as the childish Ralphie Parker, except this time, he is the father....

Holiday classic A Christmas Story will be the newest recipient of a long-belated sequel, titled A Christmas Story Christmas, thanks to a new deal between Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. The 2 companies have just struck an accord to create a new entry in the series that nobody knew was a series, and they’re bringing back at least 1 familiar face. Peter Billingsley, who played main character Ralphie in the original film, has signed on to return to the role in the HBO Max sequel....

On Twitter, game developer Paul Hubans shared the story of his 87-year-old grandmother who has played Animal Crossing: New Leaf on her Nintendo 3DS every single day for the past four years. His grandmother’s 3DS recently broke, and during the system transfer to her new system, Hubans discovered that his grandma had clocked just over 3,580 hours playing the game. In total, she has fired up the Animal Crossing game 2,521 times....

Fortunately, reaching the target is easier than you think. “Servings” are pretty small. While bulky lettuce requires a cup, you get a serving with just half a cup of most chopped fruits and veggies. (And we all know how easy it is to eat half a cup of salsa.) Just six spears of asparagus make a serving, as do eight medium strawberries. For dried fruit, which is dense, a serving is a quarter cup....

The footage shared on Facebook and YouTube shows the nine-foot-long fish breach just below the research vessel of the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy. Senior biologist with the Massachusetts division of marine fisheries, Greg Skomal, shouted “Jesus Christ!” when the fish got just below the vessel’s pulpit where the researchers stood. The shark then lifted part of its body out of the water while someone behind Skomal is left shocked at how close the fish got to them, by shouting “inches, inches, Greg....
