Dark chocolate and cocoa has more anti-oxidants than fruit juices: Dark chocolate and cocoa have more anti-oxidant capacity than fruit juice, according to a study released Sunday in the Chemistry Central Journal. Chocolate products also have more heart-healthy flavanols and polyphenol, the study found. The good news doesn’t apply to hot cocoa mix, which is processed, New York Daily News reports. Researchers from the Hershey Centre for Health & Nutrition compared single servings of dark chocolate, cocoa, and hot chocolate mix with fruit juices including acai berries, cranberries and pomegranates, according to a Hershey statement. The research showed that both dark chocolate and cocoa had more antioxidant activity and more flavonols than fruit. Debra Millar, who led the study, said chocolate should be labelled a “superfruit”, according to Times of India.[Pravda.Ru 7 feb 2011] Continue reading

Star Trek 2 – 2012?

READ: STAR TREK Sequel Promo Poster/Image/Something:

Now before anyone jumps to any conclusions about what this Star Trek sequel image/poster/whatever the hell this thing is, I’m quite sure it isn’t from Paramount or J.J. Abrams Bad Robot. I have a friend who works in (removed for obvious reasons) and this image/poster came across his desk today. If I were a betting man, I’d say the image is for some sort of merchandising item, or for some group that needs to plan very far ahead. But I really don’t know where it originates from. Hell, it could be an image from an upcoming Star Trek calendar.

However, with interest in the Star Trek sequel quite high, I thought it would be smart to share the image. Like most of you, I loved J.J. Abrams Star Trek and cannot wait for this sequel. Hit the jump to check it out.

So what do you think about this image/poster/whatever it is? Wish this was coming out next summer.

Star Trek 2

I liked the new Star Trek so it should be interesting to see how the second one goes.

Star Trek 2 Boldly Goes Forth With Definite Release Date [Star Trek 2]

from io9 by Alasdair Wilkins

Paramount has revealed that the Star Trek sequel will be released on June 29, 2012. It’s the only film currently scheduled for 2012′s July 4th weekend, historically one of the most profitable times to release summer blockbusters.

Star Trek 2 is the second major science fiction release scheduled for 2012 — Marvel Studios’ The Avengers is currently on track for the summer kickoff slot on May 4. Other potential genre releases for that summer include Fox’s Wolverine 2, Warner Brothers’s mooted Dark Knight sequel, and Spider-Man 4, assuming the rumors of a yearlong delay due to script problems are accurate.

Currently, the only people officially attached to Star Trek 2 are writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzmann. Director J.J. Abrams and the cast are, however, expected to return as well.
