Taking B. coagulans and other probiotic supplements while taking antibiotic medications is sometimes recommended to guard against gastrointestinal side effects and yeast infections.

F.I.L.T.H.: Euphemism for Failed in London, Try Hong Kong Taihong yen (astronaut): Chinese businessman who commutes between his Hong Kong job and his family tucked away in North America Yim hung (red dye): Public Hong Kong companies whose stock issues are gobbled up by mainland China concerns British “NO’ passport: The British National (Overseas) passport, which allows Chinese nationals to travel freely throughout the Commonwealth but prohibits them from gaining British residency

At least four new fall shows announced last week center on institutions of secondary education (and primary angst). There’s clique-ridden Jacqueline Kennedy High, the setting for the WB’s “Popular,” in which a girl navigates the adolescent caste system. Fox’s “Manchester Prep” is a ritzy place where Clearasil-wielding Machiavellians duke it out for social supremacy. NBC’s “Freaks and Geeks” centers on “a wacky tribe of underachievers.” “Roswell,” on the WB, puts a spin on the teen-alienation theme when a student discovers that some of her classmates are from out of town–way out of town....

Jimmy Korderas on Vince McMahon’s role behind John Cena’s rapping gimmick Speaking of John Cena, Korderas said that it was clear early on that Cena had something about him. He went on to talk about how John Cena got his gimmick as a rapper, attributing it to the Halloween segment on SmackDown where Cena dressed up as Vanilla Ice. Korderas added that as soon as Vince McMahon saw it, he wanted Cena to incorporate the rapping as a part of his character:...

Three students recorded blood-alcohol levels of .30 percent (.10 percent is legally drunk in Massachusetts) and two more were reportedly near death from alcohol poisoning this fall. At the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, 80 percent of weekend visits to health services are alcohol related....

World number two Lee said he was approached a few years ago, without giving further details. “Money is not everything to me,” he was cited as saying in Kuala Lumpur by Malaysia’s New Straits Times newspaper. “For me, national pride comes first and it is my responsibility to uphold it.” The 35-year-old’s revelation came after news emerged last week that two Malaysian players are being investigated by the Badminton World Federation (BWF) for suspected match-fixing....

When Majority Leader Tom Daschle, his voice shaking with rage, demanded an apology from the president for implying that the Democrats were unpatriotic, he was correct on the merits. President Bush attacked legitimate questions about labor conditions at the Homeland Security Department with a spurious shaft of patriotism: argue about the rights of workers in this new office with the disconcertingly Soviet name, and you are “not interested in the security of the American people....

Bairstow missed the final two limited overs matches of England’s tour after suffering the injury in a football game during a pre-match warm-up. Despite the rest, the 29-year-old will not be fit for the first Test in Galle – which begins on Tuesday – meaning Jos Buttler is likely to take his place behind the stumps. “Jonny is not available for this Test match,” head coach Trevor Bayliss told talkSPORT....

Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance is considered to be a classic hack-and-slash style RPG of the early 2000s, initially having been released on the PlayStation 2, Xbox, and Gamecube (as well as a Game Boy Advance version). It’s not a game for those who are prone to giving up – classic RPGs tend to be extremely difficult. While Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance starts out easily enough, players will find that the game is far less forgiving than most modern RPGs as they progress through the story....

Fans of Formula One will find a special homage to a motorsport legend in the video – it features the voice of Ayrton Senna! The Brazilian legend, whose name is synonymous with the sport, is regarded by many as the greatest F1 driver of all time. Senna, who won 3 world championships in his Formula One career, had 41 wins and 80 podiums over his 10-year racing career. Tragically, his career, which still had plenty of miles on it, was brought to a premature close at the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix in Imola, Italy when Senna’s Williams suffered a steering column failure, sending him crashing into the wall....

Azhar has been roped in by Somerset to replace the injured Matt Renshaw. The Australian opener, who himself had been an eleventh-hour replacement for the suspended Cameron Bancroft, broke his finger during the club’s clash against Surrey at Guildford last month. Somerset Director of Cricket, Andy Hurry stated, “Finding the right fit at short notice can be challenging. However we are delighted to have secured a player of Azhar Ali’s character, pedigree and class for the remaining seven Specsavers County Championship matches....

Replying to the home team’s 297 all out, Azhar shared a second-wicket partnership of 181 with Sami Aslam on the way to an excellent knock of 139 as England endured a frustrating day in the field. Aslam was run out for 82 after being called for a quick single by Azhar who was dropped twice before completing his 10th test century. England made an early breakthrough with the fourth ball of the day when Mohammad Hafeez cut James Anderson straight to Gary Ballance at point and was out for a duck....

Rodrigo Moreno’s goal looked set to be cancelled out when the referee awarded Frank Lampard’s Chelsea a penalty following a VAR check on Daniel Wass’ handball. Barkley, who had only been on the pitch for seven minutes, stepped up for the spot-kick, taking rank over Chelsea team-mates Jorginho, Willian and Olivier Giroud in London on Tuesday. Willian and Jorginho, in particular, were speaking with Barkley before he took the penalty, which clipped the crossbar on its way over in the Group H opener....

Ovitz captured the public imagination because he was an old-fashioned schmoozer-agent, the guy who made everyone think he was manipulating everything. He operated on charm and blue smoke. But at Disney–a multibillion-dollar company that markets lunchboxes to the world–this didn’t count for much. No-nonsense executives resented and resisted him. It was yet another reminder that the big entertainment companies now are run by nuts-and-bolts operating executives like Bill Mechanic of Fox, Frank Biondi of Universal, Jonathan Dolgen of Paramount....

Paul Jenkins, Mayor of the Canadian city of Bancroft, Ontario, confirmed the death of 23-month-old child Everett Smith on Monday, CBC News reported.
