Ingredients:

1/2 kg regular beef mince

3 American hotdogs, sliced slanted

2 medium onions, diced

2 small cloves garlic, peeled and crushed

2 tbsp cooking oil

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup grated tasty cheese

2 tbsp sugar

1 cup Filipino ketchup

1 cup tomato sauce *condiment version not the canned version*

corn flourslurry (1/2 cup water + 2 tbspn cornflour)

salt & pepper

500g packet of thick spaghetti

Cooking Directions:

• In medium-high, heat your cooking oil in a large frying pan and sauté your garlic and onions till they become transparent.  Add in your mince beef and while stirring, make sure you break down the meat clumps.  Throw in a good pinch of salt and pepper over the mince beef.  Once the mince beef are all evenly browned, add in your sliced hotdogs and cook further for a 15-30 seconds.
  
• -Pour in your tomato sauce, ketchup, water, cheese and milk.  Stir the sauce well on each addition.  Reduce the heat to simmering stage.
  
• Once the sauce is slowly simmering, add in your sugar and cornflour slurry (*stir the slurry before your pour*).  Once you pour your cornflour slurry you have to quickly stir it in to the sauce to avoid lumps.  Cook the sauce till it becomes slightly thickened.  Remove from stove and set aside.
  
• Boil some water with a good pinch of salt.  Once the water is boiling pour in your pasta.  Reduce your heat to medium and simmer the pasta for 10-14 minutes or until it is soft but not overcook.  Pour the spaghetti over a colander to remove water.
  
• In a large oven proof bowl, place the drained pasta and pour over 75% of the sauce and mix them together.  *You can add another 1/2 cup of grated tasty cheese* if you want while mixing.  Top with the leftover sauce and add more extra cheese.  Bake inside your oven till the cheese on top are completely melted.  Remove from the oven and serve.

President Obama at the 2013 White House Corresdents Dinner

President Obama last night joined Conan O'Brien onstage at the Washington Hilton for the annual White House Correspondents' Association Dinner, and gave his fifth address to the organization of journalists who cover the White House, and the President himself. In his remarks, the President poked at himself, as well as some of the news organizations and politicians in the room. He also showed a spoof promo for Steven Spielberg's followup to "LIncoln," a biopic called "Obama."

But while everyone had a good laugh during the speech, President Obama closed his speech on  a more serious note, reminding the audience of the important role the media plays in American society, especially during times of crisis like the Boston Marathon bombings and the explosion that killed so many first responders in West,Texas.

Will Chael Sonnen really retire

I can't quite shake the feeling the next time Chael Sonnen appears behind the desk on Fuel TV's UFC Tonight, he'll already be working his next angle.Maybe between now and whenever he returns to television, he'll decide that he could have fought through the final flurry against JonJones at the end of the first round on Saturday night, and should have been awarded the title on a default when Jones would have been ruled unable to continue due to his toe injury.Maybe he'll put a marquee light heavyweight or middleweight on blast and start firing verbal volleys.Maybe the pride of West Linn, Ore. really has it in his head he's going to give this retirement thing a whirl. But when presented with an opportunity down the road -- maybe a shot as a high-profile substitute -- he simply won't be able to refuse.With Chael P. Sonnen, you never know.

NBA legend Michael Jordan marries model Yvette Prieto in Florida

NBA legend Michael Jordan married Cuban-American model Yvette Prieto at a Florida church Saturday – the same one where mogul Donald Trump held his nuptials in 2005.

 Jordan, 50, and Prieto, 35, were reportedly married before approximately 500 guests, including ex-New York Knick Patrick Ewing and one-time teammate Scottie Pippen, at the Bethesda-by-the-Sea Episcopal Church in Palm Beach.

 The Miami Herald reports that a black tuxedo-clad Jordan, who is now majority owner of the Charlotte Bobcats, shot a thumbs-up upon arrival to the between 20 and 30 starry-eyed fans who gathered for the event.

 Jordan has three children with his ex-wife, Juanita Vanoy, to whom he was married in 1989. The hoops legend and Vanoy filed for divorce in 2002, but reconciled before their final separation in 2006.

Saturday’s ceremony was reportedly followed by a massive reception at Jordan’s palatial, 37,000-square-foot house in Jupiter.  The Heraldreports that the gala affair was held under three enormous tents that spanned the length of two football fields.

 “I calculated a total under-roof space of about 600 feet long by 150 feet wide,” an unidentified worker told The Herald. “I’ve never seen anything like it. I’ve been working weddings for a while. It looks like he’s having about 2,000 people over.”

People Magazine reports that Prieto met Jordan at a Miami nightclub in 2008, and the couple have been dating since then.

Mediterranean diet over low fat

Scientists say, you can have your wine and eat the nuts that go with it, and be healthier in the bargain. A rigorous new study published in the New England Journal of Medicine should finally put to rest any doubts about whether a Mediterranean diet -- rich in olive oil or nuts as well as fish, with a glass of wine per day also allowed -- promotes better cardiovascular health than the way most of us eat. It does.

That might not be surprising, but up to now, advice on the Mediterranean diet has been based on correlation: People in Mediterranean areas that tend to follow that way of eating experienced lower incidence of stroke and other cardiovascular problems. Could the difference have been genetic? Could people who ate that way also be doing other things that made the crucial difference? The new study, conducted in Spain, randomly assigned a large number of subjects to different eating styles, made sure they were following it and measured results -- not lab-test results but illness and death.

But what about the long-standing battle between those who believe that a very low-fat diet is the best way to fend off cardiac risk, and those who espouse a way of eating much higher in the so-called good fats? Should all of the people carefully counting their daily fat grams give up the effort and take a spoonful of medicine in the form of olive oil? (Or, as the study had it, four tablespoons a day -- close to 500 calories of fat before you've eaten a solid thing.) Here the situation is much more complicated.

The study meant to compare the two. The control group was supposed to eat a low-fat diet. The problem, as reported in the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, was that those people barely reduced their fat intake, even after receiving additional coaching. That's why the article words things this way:

"We designed a randomized trial to test the efficacy of two Mediterranean diets (one supplemented with extra-virgin olive oil and another with nuts), as compared with a control diet (advice on a low-fat diet), on primary cardiovascular prevention."

The researchers could have made that clearer at the get-go: Receiving advice on a diet isn't the same as eating that way most days. So the actual comparison was between a Mediterranean diet and the standard way of eating among Spaniards (who apparently, in many ways, are not following a Mediterranean diet no matter what their geographical location happens to be).

What this study may have shown us about the difference between Mediterranean and low fat is that the former is easier to follow. There were no big problems getting subjects to ingest olive oil, wine and seafood. Low fat? Not so much.

The believers in low-fat diets could legitimately argue that the control group received too little coaching and support for their way of eating. But there's also a reality that has to be taken into account. No matter what future research shows about the value of a low-fat or very low-fat diet, when it comes to improving public health, we might need not just a healthier diet but one that large numbers of people will find sustainable over a lifetime.

How to get Big and Beautiful Lashes

Do you want to have a beautiful lashes here are some tips.

"Use that 30-second window before your mascara dries to work the wand," says Sarah Lucero, Stila pro makeup artist. Start with curled lashes and two coats of mascara, then try one of these tricks.

To go wider and bigger:

1. Elongate your center lashes. Use the tip of your brush to stretch the middle lashes upward.

2. Next, define the bottom lash line and then emphasize the center lashes with the tip of your brush.

To Look Well Rested

Carefully coat your baby lashes (the tiny inside-corner hairs). "It brightens the whites of your eyes," says Lucero. You need very little mascara, so clean off the tip of the wand first.

To Get an Instant Eye Lift

Add an extra coat of mascara to the outermost lashes and hold the brush for a few seconds to set.

Highlights and Analysis: Champions League Semifinals, Barcelona at Bayern Munich

Thomas Müller scored two goals and set up two others as Bayern Munich thrashed visiting Barcelona, 4-0, on Tuesday in a Champions Leaguesemifinal.

The eagerly anticipated showdown between European heavyweights, both former winners of the competition, was a complete mismatch. Bayern dominated the midfield even as it surrendered much of the possession, frustrating Barcelona’s passing game before it could get close enough to create chances. Then Bayern punished the Catalans on set pieces at the other end, dominating the air — at times simply bullying Barcelona into submission.

Barcelona had hoped to get a boost from its star Lionel Messi, who returned from a hamstring injury sustained in the quarterfinal, but the tiny Argentine — unable to find an inch of space and clearly not fit — was virtually invisible all game.

Barcelona never seemed to have a chance. Losing his marker in the 25th minute, Müller drove in a header for the opening goal. Four minutes after halftime, he headed a ball off a corner kick into the goalmouth, where Mario Gomez swept it in. The visitors were stunned, and it only got worse.

Müller set a crushing pick on a defender to free Arjen Robben to score from a tight angle in the 73rd minute, and then slid in to add his second goal in the 82nd.

By then Barcelona seemed to be praying for the end, just wanting to get out of Bavaria and hopefully turn things around at its Camp Nou stadium next week. But a four-goal deficit will be almost impossible to erase, making it highly likely now that Bayern will face the Real Madrid-Borussia Dortmund winner in the final at Wembley on May 25.
