‘Tis the season for family and feasting and, dare I say, weight gain. But that’s alright. Well, that’s what I tell myself, at any rate. The fat will help us to stay warm throughout the winter… right? No, now is the time when we need to be extra vigilant against those unwanted inches or suffer the consequences for it come swimsuit season. Luckily, Sleek Physique Body Sculpting is here to help. Offering ultrasound and radio frequency treatments, Sleek Physique employs the latest technologies to help ease the fat-loss process. “We use ultrasound and radio frequency to cavitate the fat cells and tighten your skin,” says Stephanie Pitman, owner of Sleek Physique. “Ultrasound cavitation creates bubbles in the fat cells and the more bubbles created, the weaker the cell wall becomes until it implodes. Then the liquefied fat is released into the body to be metabolized. And then if you were to incorporate exercise after treatment you can burn up to five times more fat in a workout than you would normally. One down side to this treatment is a buzz in your ears during treatment. It can be a little annoying. It happens due to the shaking of your fat cells, but

goes away as soon as the treatment is over.” A little buzzing in my ears for up to 5 times the results from my workouts? I think I can handle that. That you have to go and work out still is an important point as is healthy eating habits, Stephanie notes. “I’ve had a few people who call in and think this is a quick fix but it’s not. You have to be willing to commit to making some positive health changes in your lifestyle. You can get immediate results, which are permanent, but you have to do your part to keep the inches off. For some people it can be as small as half an inch. We have an example of one woman who, in an hour and a half, lost five inches. Another woman after losing almost nine inches in six treatments was so motivated to make positive changes that she’s incor-
porated more exercise and a better diet, and then she’s going to come back in for another round of treatments. It’s a great motivator, because you see results.” And did someone mention ‘skin tightening?’ Well that’s the second part of the primary technologies employed at Sleek Physique: radio frequency treatments. “The radio frequency further breaks down those weakened fat cells and it helps to stimulate collagen production, thereby improving skin tone – if you have age spots, wrinkles, stretch marks, acne scars, it’ll help to reduce those,” states Pitman. “We’ve also seen some amazing results in face and neck wrinkles. In just over a month we helped a woman in her mid 50’s take 10 years off her face.” Collagen is a connective tissue that, in skin, is primarily responsible for maintaining skin firmness and also contributes to skin elasticity. Both are qualities which begin to decline in our skin after about our mid-20’s, resulting in those pesky wrinkles and crow’s feet, which seem so frustratingly determined to make us look older than we feel.

HOLLYWOOD -- Why did Sam Champion leave “Good Morning America” to work at The Weather Channel? Sam, at GMA since 2006, became such an important part of the team that weather was almost his minor job. Since GMA leads the ratings, it’s unlikely he was pushed out, like Ann Curry at “The Today Show” or Al Roker, who’s on The Weather Channel in addition to “The Today Show.” The Weather Channel is a step back for Sam. Is it a coincidence Sam left less than a year since he “came out” officially and married his male partner? Just asking! Also at ABC, Katie Couric’s daytime talk show is all but canceled because of
low ratings in its second year. *** Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, who won Oscars for writing “Good Will Hunting” in 1997, are reteaming, as producers, to bring the DC comic book series “Sleeper” to the big screen. No word yet if either or both will act in the film. Hugh Jackman has completed shooting on “X-Men: Days of Future Past,” as Wolverine. The highly anticipated sequel arrives May 23. Jackman has been before the cameras with Sigourney Weaver in Johannesburg, South Africa, since October in the science-fiction comedy “Chappy,” set for a March 2015 bow. Could Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence be the new Spencer Tracy/ Katherine Hepburn or William Powell/Myrna Loy team? They scored big in “Silver Linings Playbook” (for which she won an Oscar), and are currently
Jennifer Lawrence on screen in “American Hustle,” to be followed by the “secret project” they shot in March of 2012, the Depression-era drama “Serena.” Jennifer’s Oscar win, coupled with her top-grossing “Hunger Games: Catching Fire” and Bradley’s track record have started a bidding war among distributors unlike any seen in recent years. The buzz is that Cooper and Lawrence will do it again! Word on the street is that
Harvey Weinstein wants it, and what Harvey wants, he usually gets! Channing Tatum is one busy guy. He’ll be heard as Superman in the animated “Lego Movie,” out Feb. 7. Then come June 23, he stars with Jonah Hill in “22 Jump Street,” followed by “Jupiter Ascending” with Mila Kunis, Sean Bean, Eddie Redmayne (“My Week with Marilyn”) and the most recent screen Romeo, Douglas Booth, bowing July 25. Then he’ll lend his voice again to the 3D computer-animated “Book of Life,” with Zoe Saldana and Christina Applegate, out Oct. 17. He’s currently filming “Foxcatcher,” with Steve Carell and Mark Ruffalo, in which People’s “The sexiest man alive” plays 1984 gold medal Olympic wrestler Max Schultz. With a new baby at home, keeping him and his wife up nights, small wonder he’s chosen location, location, location! (c) 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.
Answers pg 15 A VERY SOPHISTICATED PLAY
It is said that there’s no such thing as inventing a new play in bridge. And, taking into account the billions of hands that have been played through the years, this is largely true. Even so, every once in a while someone seems to come up with something that has not been seen before.
“Contagion” by Tim Lebbon (Pyr, $17.99) Reviewed by Ealish Waddell In the near future of the “Toxic City” trilogy, London has been decimated by an act of terrorism that released a biological agent known as Evolve. Most of the population were killed instantly by the toxin, and a few who survived found themselves with new mental powers to heal, to manipulate and even to kill. To contain these frightening new abilities, the government razed the suburbs and declared LonPAGE 12

Consider this deal where West leads a heart against three notrump. Declarer ducks East’s jack of hearts and wins East’s king continuation with the ace. South now leads a diamond, and it does not matter how East-West elect to defend. The best they can do is to score two heart tricks and the A-K of diamonds to hold declarer to nine tricks. This scenario seems altogether normal, and it appears that South must make the contract, come what may. However, three notrump can be defeated if East does something very unusual. All he has to do is to play the eight of hearts instead of the jack at trick one! This might look very peculiar, but it has a dramatic effect on
the outcome, since South can no longer make the contract. Declarer is forced to win the eight of hearts with the ten. Whenever he leads a diamond, West wins with the king and returns a heart. South can take the ace of hearts whenever he pleases, but he cannot score more than eight tricks. East’s play of the eight of hearts is not, strictly speaking, a brand-new play in bridge, since there are variations of it that arise under many different circumstances. But it is the right thing to do here, because East’s only real chance of stopping the contract is to find his partner with the king of diamonds. (c) 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.
don forbidden ground. When teen Jack and his friends uncover evidence that their relatives might still be alive inside the city, they risk their lives to cross the border. Instead of the empty wastes they’d been led to expect, they encounter a war zone, where scattered refugees struggle to survive, hunted not only by feral beasts and military thugs, but also by vicious members of their own kind. To his horror, Jack’s father has become one of the latter, changed by Evolve into a villain beyond recognition. And after a bizarre encounter with Patient Zero, Jack himself begins to develop odd new abilities ... In the final book of the trilogy, “Contagion,” Jack has managed to rescue his mother and sister, but his mission in London
is not over. Their friend Lucy-Anne is lost in the mutant-filled wilds of the north. Jack’s father and his gang of lethal Superiors continue their reign of terror. And the massive bomb buried under London has been triggered, counting down to annihilation in a matter of hours. As Jack urgently searches his newfound powers for solutions, he realizes that he alone may be the key to London’s future, and that it just might take everything he’s got. Energetic and fast-paced, “Contagion” is a gripping wrap-up to an intense dystopian adventure, delivering moment after moment of visceral horror right up to the shocking end.

YOU FOUND IT! in the Shopping News!
Q: My great-aunt recently died in Mississippi. For years she taught young students piano, and her estate includes piles of older sheet music. Should we keep or toss it? -- Johnnie, Baton Rouge, La. A: Wayland Bunnell is an expert and appraiser of sheet music, and he stated that unless you have pieces that are extraordinary, they probably would not be worth appraising. He is willing to advise you, however, and can be contacted at wtarrytown@aol.com.
Sheet music to be aware of includes early ragtime, personality sheets from the 1920s and ‘30s promoting stars such as Al Jolson, Shirley Temple and Judy Garland, and pre-1925 Irving Berlin compositions. Most sheet music spotted in shops and at antique malls generally sells in the $1 to $3 range. *** Q: My dad owned a typewriter repair shop and saved about a dozen older machines that he thought were unique. I would like to find out how much they might be worth. -- Bill, Topeka, Kansas A: Collectors divide machines into three basic periods: Pioneer, from 1874 to 1890; Classic, from 1890 to 1920; and Modern, all machines manufactured after 1920. As with most collectibles, values depend on several factors including condition and rarity. One of the better typewriter experts is Anthony Castillo, owner of TTS Business and Prod-
ucts, 325 Nassau Blvd., Garden City South, NY 11530. His website and email address are www. typewritercollector.com; and typebar@aol.com. *** Q: I have what I think is an old U.S. Army knife, stamped “US 1918.” What do you think it is worth? -- Bill, Wolcott, N.Y. A: One of the better references I have found is “American Premium Guide to Knives and Razors: Identification and Value Guide,” by Jim Sargent (Krause Books). This might be a good place to begin your search. *** Write to Larry Cox in care of King Features Weekly Service, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475, or send e-mail to questionsforcox@aol.com.

Why A Staffing Agency?
ALWAYS WORKING FOR YOU!
Brought To You By Every day companies like A2Z Staffing Solutions match millions of people with jobs. In an increasingly complex market heavily influenced by pressure to master technology skills even in basic, entry level positions, having an advocate working for you on the inside can be a great help. Not only is a job with a temporary staffing agency a great way to build your skills as an employee, it’s also an efficient opportunity to establish a network with top level executives across industries. For example, consider a nurse practitioner who has just graduated from school and needs to find a job in a particular geographic area. Rather than spending days filling out applications for different positions at multiple companies, this person can schedule one interview at A2Z Staffing Solutions and submit one resume - and let the staffing coordinator review the area job market on his or her behalf. This results in a win-win situation, because often companies don’t have the time or resources to review prospective employees in the way they would like, which is why they end up contacting organizations that can manage the process on their behalf. Top 3 Reasons To Work With A2Z Staffing Professionals:
Sleek Continued from pg 1 and in an effort to prepare you on every front for the battle against your trouble zones, Sleek Physique also offers a comfortable, cozy space for Zumba and yoga classes, and basic fitness equipment as a way to bridge the gap between home gyms and the bigger, sometimes intimidating, fitness centers. As a matter of fact, Pitman will often require that her ultrasound clients spend at least a few minutes on her fitness equipment – in order to jumpstart the body’s natural processing of those liquefied fat cells – before allowing them to move on to the radio frequency treatment. “I figured if I was going to have exercise equipment, I may as well make it available to the public, too. The back entrance is for the 24-hour gym access for a small access fee. We have a TV and DVD player along with a video library [featuring an array of workout programs] that you can come and work out to. It’s always funner to work out with a friend. You work harder and push them harder. I’ve had people who set up a time to come in and do the P90X routine with a friend.” So while Sleek Physique is by no means providing a magic-bullet solution, they do provide options, both efficient and fun – at least as fun as working out can ever be. “It’s a nice kick-start for people, to get them motivated, so they can DECEMBER, 26, 2013

see the results and want to continue,” suggests Stephanie. “It’s good for people who’ve reached a plateau and are just getting frustrated.

It doesn’t matter the age.” So check out their coupon at the top of page 1, then call Sleek Physique Body Sculpting for an appointment and see what Stephanie and crew can do to help you take off those holiday inches and keep you swimwear-ready, all year long. 449-6677 and located at 1425 Birch St. Suite D. www.sleekbodysculpting.com
