Best Friends Forever

f you think

politics makes for strange bed-fellows, consider these tales from

the animal kingdom—a leopard becomes best buds with a cow, an elephant pals around with a sheep, and a fi sh tries to nuzzle a dog. In Unlikely Friendships, author and conservation biologist Jennifer Holland offers these and 44 other stories of extraordinary bonds. “Animals of different species get together for many rea-sons, among them natural disasters,” Holland says. One of the most surprising pairings: the baby hippo that found a substitute mother in a 130-year-old giant tortoise in the wake of a deadly tsunami in Kenya. The two frolicked in the same pond and slept side by side, even developing a special language. Loneliness can also play a role in these friendships. When a scrappy kitten

(pictured above) strayed into the Sacred Monkey Forest in Bali, she became the adored pet of a long-tailed macaque. The kitten grew so attached to the monkey that she ran back to him when-ever park staff tried to “rescue” her. “Creatures that we think should be enemies but get along can teach us something about how we treat animals—and each other,” Holland says. —Joanne Kaufman

A family is murdered in a Stockholm suburb, and detective Joona Linna pairs up with a disgraced former hypnotist to determine whodunit. But when he hyp-notizes the crime’s only survivor, a 15-year-old boy, he sets off a gripping series of twists and turns, one that makes this thriller a natural successor to the Stieg Larsson series.

1Stand at an angle to the camera. This will give you

a slimmer profi le and add interest to the photo. Try slightly lowering your front shoulder to elongate your neck.

2Women: Looking up slightly will automatically raise your

eyebrows, making your eyes appear larger. Men: Stick your chin out a bit to create a stronger face and eliminate a double chin.

3 Smack your lips together

(though not too hard) a couple of times just before the photo is taken. This will send blood to them and make them appear redder and fuller. Similarly, pinch your cheeks to get a rosy glow.

4To avoid closed eyes, try this trick: Ask the person snapping

the photo to count to three, then blink on two. Your eyes will be at their brightest and most open.

Approved Uses for VIMOVO

VIMOVO is approved to relieve the signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis, and to decrease the risk of stomach (gastric) ulcers in patients at risk of developing stomach ulcers from treatment with NSAIDs.VIMOVO is not recommended as a starting treatment for relief of acute pain. Controlled studies do not extend beyond 6 months.

Important Safety InformationLike all medications that contain nonsteroidal anti infl ammatory drugs (NSAIDs), VIMOVO may increase the chance of a heart attack or stroke that can lead to death. This chance increases with longer use of NSAID medicines, and in people who have heart disease. NSAID-containing medications, such as VIMOVO, should never be used before or after a type of heart surgery called coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). As with all medications that contain NSAIDs, VIMOVO may increase the chance of stomach and intestinal problems, such as bleeding or an ulcer, which can occur without warning and may cause death. Elderly patients are at greater risk for serious gastrointestinal events.VIMOVO is not right for everyone, including patients who have had an asthma attack, hives, or other allergic reaction with aspirin or any other NSAID medicine, patients who are allergic to any of the ingredients in VIMOVO, or women in late stages of pregnancy. Serious allergic reactions, including skin reactions, can occur without warning and can be life-threatening; discontinue use of VIMOVO at the fi rst appearance of a skin rash, or if you develop sudden wheezing; swelling of the lips, tongue or throat; fainting; or problems swallowing.VIMOVO should be used at the lowest dose and for the shortest amount of time as directed by your health care provider. Tell your health care provider right away if you develop signs of active bleeding from any source.

VIMOVO can lead to onset of new hypertension or worsening of existing high blood pressure, either of which may contribute to an increased risk of a heart attack or stroke.Speak with your health care provider before starting VIMOVO if you• Have a history of ulcers or bleeding in the stomach or intestines• Have heart problems, high blood pressure, or are taking high blood pressure medications• Have kidney or liver problemsReview all the medications, even over-the-counter medications, you are taking with your health care provider before starting VIMOVO. Talk to your health care provider about your risk for bone fractures if you take VIMOVO for a long period of time. The most common side effects of VIMOVO include: infl ammation of the lining of the stomach, indigestion, diarrhea, stomach ulcers, abdominal pain, and nausea.For further information on VIMOVO, please see the Brief Summary of full Prescribing Information, including Boxed Warnings on adjacent pages. You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088.If you’re without prescription coverage and can’t afford your medication, AstraZeneca may be able to help. Please visit www.astrazeneca-us.com for more information.

Ask your doctor about VIMOVO.VIMOVO is a prescription medicine that combines a proven arthritis pain reliever with built-in medication that can help protect you from stomach issues common to NSAIDs.

NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-infl ammatory drugs) can effectively reduce the pain of osteoarthritis. But they may also lead to stomach issues, which may keep you from taking the medicine you need.

VIMOVO combines a prescription arthritis pain medication with a built-in medicine that has been proven to reduce the risk of developing stomach (gastric) ulcers.*

So if you’re worried about potential stomach issues with your arthritis pain medication, ask your doctor about VIMOVO. * In 6-month clinical studies, compared with enteric-coated naproxen.

Is your arthritis pain medicine putting you at risk for stomach issues?

Manner Up!Modern etique� e made easy

Q. Last night, I was at the movies, and the woman next to me kept checking her email. It was really distracting. Did I have a right to tell her to turn o� her

phone? —Stuart F., Boston

A: How dare you want to concentrate on watching a movie in a movie theater! Look, I love email as much as the next person, but I still want to chop the fi ngers off anyone who texts/emails/updates her Facebook status during a movie. At the very least, I’d like to turn a tiny fl ashlight on and off in the perpetrator’s eyes—because that’s essentially what she’s doing to everyone near her. Assuming that’s not an op-tion, you are entirely within your rights to ask someone to turn off her cell phone. In fact, wasn’t there an on-screen message before the movie that asked everyone to do so? It’s sometimes easier to switch seats than confront a rude person, but if you can’t (or don’t want to) move, try a polite request. Keep it short and sweet: “Hi. If you have an emergency, can you take it outside? We’re trying to watch the movie. Thanks.” If your request is ignored, call in the movie security guy—who will tell the guilty texter to cease and desist. —Judith Newman

heat? Or do they

actually keep the

interior cooler?

—David Holzman, Apopka, Fla.

If heat is your only concern, the darker the tint, the better —but you may not be able to drive your really cool car on public roads. Window tinting is heavily regulated, mostly for safety reasons, and officers may be carrying tint meters. Tint laws vary from place to place, but they target issues such as darkness, refl ec-tivity, and the location of the tinted glass on the vehicle.

The Glee star reveals the story of his troubled teen years and the journey he took to rebuild his life

’m not finn hudson,” cory monteith says of his beloved GLEE

character. “But a lot of people think I am.”That fans buy the 29-year-old Canadian as an all-American high school

student is a tribute to the actor’s talent—though the show’s hairstylists deserve a little credit as well. “They hide the gray,” Monteith says with a laugh, digging into a plate of lasagna at a favorite restaurant in the Hollywood Hills. “I’m not a full-on silver fox, but I’m gettin’ on!”

Unlike the dim-witted Finn, who seems most confi dent ex-pressing himself through song, Monteith is articulate and self-aware, displaying the focus that, in two short years, has propelled him from little-known actor to breakout TV star. He’s set his

sights on big-screen success, too: His new fi lm—the romantic com-edy Monte Carlo, starring Selena Gomez and Leighton Meester—opens July 1.

Monteith’s future didn’t always seem so promising. In fact, his own teen years were such a minefield that he was lucky to make it to age 20. Opening up about his troubled past as he never has before, Mon-teith wants to deliver a message for anyone struggling as he once did: “There is a way out. You never know what’s in store for you.”

The actor grew up in Victoria, British Columbia, feeling like an outsider. “I didn’t have any defi ni-tion of self,” he says. After his par-ents divorced when he was 7, he saw less of his father, who was in the military. He began having dif-fi culties in school. “I never fi t in, so I started pretending I was other people. I’d fi nd people I thought were cool and dress how they dressed, talk how they talked, do whatever they were into.” By 13, Monteith—once a promising stu-dent who at age 5 could read at a fourth-grade level––was skipping school to get drunk and smoke pot. He eventually dropped out.

His mother, an interior decora-tor, told him to return to school and stop the rebellious behavior—or fi nd a new home. The tough love worked, but only for brief periods. “I’d go back for two weeks so I didn’t have to fi nd a friend’s house where I could crash,” says Mon teith, who esti-mates that by age 16, when he quit for good, he’d attended 12 different schools, including alter-native programs for troubled

teens. “I burned a lot of bridges. I was out of control.”

By then, so were the drugs. “Any-

thing and everything, as much as possible,” he says, when asked to elaborate. “I had a serious problem.”

Afraid that he “could die,” his mother and a group of friends staged an intervention when he was 19. “That’s when I fi rst went to rehab. I did the stint but then went back to doing exactly what I left off doing.”

Monteith might have continued down that path if not for what he calls “the crystallizing event.” He pauses to fi nd the right words. “I stole a signifi cant amount of money from a family member,” he contin-ues quietly. “I knew I was going to get caught, but I was so desperate I didn’t care. It was a cry for help. I was confronted and I said, ‘Yeah, it was me.’ It was the fi rst honorable, truthful thing that had come out of my mouth in years.”

He was given an ultimatum: He had to get clean, or the family member would report him to the police and press charges. Although it wasn’t the first time Monteith had taken something that didn’t belong to him (“A lot of things went missing when I was around; I had high overhead to take care of”), up until then he had avoided pros-ecution. “I was done fi ghting my-self,” he recalls of his turning point. “I fi nally said, ‘I’m gonna start look-ing at my life and fi gure out why I’m doing this.’ ”

Monteith left Victoria and moved in with a family friend in the small industrial city of Nanaimo. It was there, living in a double-wide trailer, that he began the painstak-ing process of rebuilding his life. He quit using, got a job as a roofer, and surrounded himself with other sober people. Among them was Andrew McIlroy, a Vancouver-based acting coach who came to Nanaimo on the weekends to

teach. “I understood where he’d come from,” says McIlroy, “and I thought, ‘If this fi sh slips back into the sea, we may never see him again. Keep him busy.’ ”

McIlroy offered him free classes in exchange for tidying up around the acting studio and running errands. Then one day he put Monteith in front of the camera to do a scene about a guy contemplat-ing suicide and realized acting could provide more than just a distraction for the young man. “Cory was working from some very dark truths,” says McIlroy.

“I remember going, ‘Okay, this is something you can reasonably think of doing as a career.’ ”

It was a life-altering moment for Monteith, the fi rst time he’d felt the satisfaction of “working hard and being good at some-thing.” Though acting was still a way to pretend to be other peo-ple, it built up his confi dence in-stead of tearing it down.

A few months after moving to Nanaimo, Monteith tossed his scant belongings into a garbage bag and relocated to Vancouver to begin auditioning for roles. Again, McIlroy—the father fi gure Monteith had long yearned for—provided crucial support, letting the young actor crash at his place and introducing him to agent Elena Kirschner. “A lot of people get into acting because they want to be famous,” says Kirschner, who still guides Monteith’s career. “But it’s never been about that for Cory. He consistently worked

hard and absorbed like a sponge. And he’s never stopped.”

That work ethic would eventually land him guest spots on

shows like Supernatural and, in 2009, his costarring role on Glee, despite his lack of vocal training. While the schedule for the Fox hit is grueling—even during the sum-mer, thanks to the Glee Live! concert tour—Monteith, who also plays drums for the fl edgling Cali-rock band Bonnie Dune, isn’t complain-ing. He knows how fortunate he is.“What’s exciting to me now,” says the actor, who is single and lives with roommates in a rental house, “is seeing where this all goes.”

Along with the career success have come personal victories. This spring, Monteith received a high school diploma from one of the alternative schools he attended in Victoria—“based,” he says, “on abilities demonstrated in the work-place.” And in November 2009, he got together with his father for the fi rst time in 17 years. “We’d spoken maybe three or four times [during that period],” Monteith says, “and he reached out to me on Facebook. I couldn’t shut the door, so I got on a plane. He greeted me at the air-port, and [he and Monteith’s step-mother] were so happy they were almost crying. It was a good time. At some point, you realize your parents are human. They make the best decisions they can with the options available to them. ”

The perspective he has gained is part of the reason he has chosen to speak out now about his extra-ordinary journey. “I don’t want kids to think it’s okay to drop out of school and get high, and they’ll be famous actors, too,” says Mon-teith, who works with a group called Virgin Unite that helps at-risk youth. “I’m lucky on so many counts—I’m lucky to be alive.

“But for those people who might give up: Get real about what you want and go after it. If I can, anyone can.”

Salt Lake

City to

Ogden, Utah

(39 miles)Ogden’s a town for

all seasons. In the summer, explore its horseback- riding,

hiking, and bik-ing trails. Two rivers meet here, offering

great boating and fi shing. Foul weather? The Salomon Center has bum-per cars and indoor surfi ng and skydiving. Come winter, hit the slopes for prime ski-ing and snowboarding.

Denver to Mount

Evans, Colo. (60 miles)Scale Mount Evans with four wheels instead of

two legs by driving up North America’s highest

paved road (14,130 feet at the top). You’ll pass through several climate zones, fi nd photo ops galore, and see mountain goats and bighorn sheep.

Dallas to Canton,

Tex. (57 miles)This town is best known for the monthly Canton Trade Days, one of the world’s largest fl ea mar-kets. It’s mind-bogglingly huge: as many as 7,000 vendors spread out over nearly 500 acres. When you’re all shopped out, go boating or hiking or play golf at a local course.

Houston to Montgom-

ery, Tex. (56 miles)Just four square miles, this quaint town is pedestrian-friendly and history-proud. Said to be the birthplace of the Lone Star fl ag, it’s full of antique stores and restored 19th-century homes. Gourmets will enjoy visiting the area’s cluster of wineries.

park must-sees are Petro-glyph Point, one of the largest examples of Native American rock art in the U.S., and Captain Jack’s Strong-hold, a lava fortress where Modoc Indians held off the U.S. Army from 1872 to 1873.

Los Angeles to Palos

Verdes Peninsula,

Calif. (31 miles)The area’s seaside splendors include Abalone Cove Shore-line Park, with pristine tide pools of urchins and anemo-nes; the pretty South Coast Botanic Garden; and the 1,200-acre Palos Verdes Nature Preserve. There are also man-made standouts: the Banning Museum (an 1864 mansion), the cliffside Wayfarer’s Chapel (its archi-tect was Frank Lloyd Wright’s son), and Point Vicente Lighthouse (the best spot to catch a sunset).

Seattle to Whidbey

Island, Wash.

(34 miles)Whidbey has a split person-ality: part pastoral, with fi elds, wineries, and artists’ studios; and part military, with a Naval Air Station and historic Fort Casey. Relive the pioneer days at Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve, which contains 17 working farms and over 400 historic struc-tures. Other activities include camping, clamming, and whale watching.

San Francisco to Lava

Beds National Monu-

ment, Calif. (375 miles)Otherworldly and untamed are two words that describe this unique spot. Ancient volcanic eruptions formed a rugged landscape of caves, craters, and cones, with some two dozen lava-tube caves open to explore. Two

ith the cost of gas edging ever higher, long driving vacations (not to mention plane rides) are in the “just too pricey” category for many

families this summer. But that doesn’t mean you’re stuck with a staycation. Peter Greenberg, travel editor for CBS News, has come up with 15 amazing trips, each reachable from an Ameri-can city on less than a tank of gas (as a standard, we used a Ford Fusion, which gets 32 mpg on the highway and has a 17.5-gallon tank).* All are sure to entertain, enthrall, educate—just about everything but exhaust you (and your bank account).

Minneapolis to Red

Wing, Minn. (55 miles)Red Wing is an apt name for this town of many natural wonders. There’s superb walleye and sauger fi shing, scenic hiking on the bluffs and the Cannon Valley trail, and, in the winter, cross-country skiing and bald-eagle viewing. Fans of Americana will admire the historic train depot, local Red Wing pot-tery, and—of course—the world’s biggest boot (size 638 ½).

Chicago to McHenry

County, Ill. (50 miles)Take a break from the city and head back to the farm: The county is home to about 1,000 of them, many with pick-your-own orchards and fi elds. In the fall, wind your way through the Richardson Farm corn maze, an 11-mile-long doozy. If your tastes run more Hollywood, go to the drive-in theater in McHenry or to the nearby Volo Auto Museum, which has TV’s Bat mobile and General Lee, plus other pop-culture cars.

Cleveland to the Lake Erie

Islands, Ohio (83 miles)This island chain has activities for all types: the social (Put-in-Bay on South Bass Island is known for its nightlife), the sporty (fi shing, hik-ing, swimming, kayaking, scuba-diving), and the scientifi c (the Gla-cial Grooves on Kelleys Island are intriguing Ice Age–era bedrock creases), as well as those looking to slow down (bikes and golf carts are common ways to get around).

Atlanta to Dahlonega, Ga. (66 miles)

This town has multiple claims to fame: It was the site of an 1828 gold rush (you can visit an old mine), boasts ultra-punishing bike trails (according to pros like Lance Armstrong), and has the state’s tallest waterfall (a 729-foot beauty) at Amicalola State Park.

Orlando to Citrus County,

Fla. (83 miles)Aquatic-animal enthusiasts will be in their element at the Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge, where visitors can snorkel with the endangered manatee. Other native creatures—cougars, key deer, and bobcats—can be glimpsed at Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park. Or try a Citrus-y sport like kayak fi shing or scalloping.

Washington, D.C., to

Easton, Md. (68 miles)Easton’s charming downtown is the site of two annual art shows: the Plein Air festival (July 18–24), an outdoor painting exhibit and contest, and the Waterfowl Festi-val (Nov. 11–13), a wildlife-art expo. But the area has much more to offer road-trippers: fl at, scenic cycling terrain, seven golf courses, antique shops, and water sports.

New York City to the

Delaware Water Gap,

N.J. and Pa. (72 miles)History and nature converge at this point, where the Delaware River cuts through the Appalachian Mountains. The area saw skir-mishes in the French and Indian War, served as an Underground Railroad hub, and hosted vaca-tioners in the late 19th century; structures from these periods still stand. Today visitors are drawn by the rock climbing, boating, fi shing, and hiking (the 27-mile stretch of the Appalachian Trail is a favorite).

Boston to Cape Ann,

Mass. (40 miles)Come here for New England charm minus the crazy crowds. Whale watching, boating, fi shing, and feasting on seafood are the main to-dos. Or dine at one of these foodie faves: Rockport’s Lobster Pool for lobster rolls and Ipswich’s Clam Box (shaped like … a clam box!) for fried whole-belly clams. The area also has one of the country’s oldest art colonies; you can visit artists’ studios, galleries, and the former homes of legends like Edward Hopper.

StayHealthy5 THINGS YOU DIDN’T KNOW ABOUT

Improving Cholesterol

1 Even thin or ath-

letic people can

have high numbers. Three-quarters of the cholesterol in your body is pro-duced by your liver and other cells, and how much you produce is largely genetic. But you can do a lot to control the remaining quarter.

2 The good mat-ters just as

much as the bad. HDL particles (the good kind) clear LDL particles (the bad kind) from your blood, helping to keep them from clog-ging your arteries.

3An apple a day really can keep

the doctor away. A recent study found that subjects who ate 75 grams of dried apple (about two fresh apples) daily lowered their overall cholesterol levels by 14 percent

and LDL levels by 23 percent.

4But what you eat is only part of the

story. Increasing your physical activity, quitting smoking, and losing 10 per-cent of your body weight can boost HDL by 20 to 30 per-cent, says Dr. Robert Eckel, former presi-dent of the American Heart Association.

5Breast-feeding can make a dent

in cholesterol levels later on. A breast-fed baby can con-sume six times the cholesterol of the average adult’s diet, and this early expo-sure may improve the body’s ability to metabolize choles-terol, leading to lower levels later in life.

1. Prepare a charcoal fi re, or pre-heat a gas grill for direct grilling over medium fl ame.2. In a small bowl, mix together the fi rst six ingredients.3. Using a pastry brush, coat both sides of the salmon with olive oil.4. Place the salmon, fl esh side down, on the grill. Cook until it loos-ens its grip on the grill, 7 to 8 min-utes. Turn carefully, then spoon the sauce over the cooked side of the fi sh. Grill until the sauce has formed a glaze and the salmon fl akes with a fork but is still a bit opaque in the center, about 4 to 5 minutes.5. Remove from the grill and serve.

Catch of Today

When it comes to cooking, I’m pretty much a traditionalist. I’ve

been making this dish for at least 10 years. Salmon’s a flavorful fish, and it stands up well to other fl avors. So if you put a little maple on it, plus salt and pep-per, you get a sweet and savory dish. And it’s family-friendly—kids like it. Some-times, my children help me cook—even if it’s just stirring something or putting a

dish in the oven. But if a recipe requires a lot of chopping, or if I really have to get stuff done in a certain amount of time, then I let them do other chores, like setting the table.

Three things are a must, however: We say grace before every meal; we try to have a salad every night; and no Black-Berries, no phones, and no TV allowed. We just enjoy each other and relax.
