For a better diet and healthier cooking in 2014, try incorporating olive oil into the mix. Our reader Jayda Boyce (@jayda_boyce) tweeted us that one of her New Year's resolutions is to "eat better," while Megan James (@lynch2010) said one of her New Year's resolutions is to "cook more at home." A great way to do both is to use olive oil in your recipes. According to the Mayo Clinic, the fat found in olive oil—monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs)--is considered a healthy dietary fat, and may lower your risk of heart disease, lower your cholesterol, minimize blood clotting, and benefit insulin levels and blood sugar control.

Megan James is flipping through an oversize coffee-table book filled with lush images of vampires, angels and demons. A fan gave the book to the Purity Ring vocalist and her bandmate Corin Roddick after a show in Chicago, and she’s fallen in love with it.
“That’s scary stuff,” says a member of the Purity Ring road crew who has stopped by to take a look.

However, once I’d wriggled myself out of the on and off sleep of a hangover, I instead took to watching the Olympics opening ceremony, on BBC iPlayer, and taking back the majority of my derogatory comments made against it when not watching it in a number public houses last night.
It was impressive. What can I say? Though a waste of money, time and resources and I shall in no way be watching any of the rest of the Olympics, it was impressive.
