Ariane Fisher: The 'Real' Story Behind Wedding Reality Shows -- Video Interview

Get Weddings Newsletters:

I'm kind of addicted to wedding reality shows. What I want to know is... how much of it is real? Come on, the very first episode of Wedding Island showed a guest literally ruining the ceremony photos. Stay tuned at the bottom of this post for an exclusive sneak peek at the upcoming episode.

And just this week, there was a controversial post here on HuffPost about Unplugged Weddings. What's the deal with these guests? What I really wanted to know was whether the show's producers had put this guest up to it. Seriously, no one in their right mind would stand between a bride and groom in the middle of the ceremony to get a close-up shot, would they???

So, I stalked the show's star, Sandy Malone, and got her to do an exclusive video interview. Here's the story behind the story. Note: please be patient with google on-air's video quality and the fact that it cut out the intro. It was just your standard intro. "Hi, I'm Ariane. This is Sandy. Um, Sandy, what the $%^& was up with that guest????"

And here is the promised exclusive sneak peek at this week's Wedding Island episode. Best. Entrance. Ever.

Disclaimer. When I say I'm addicted to wedding reality shows, I mean it. In fact, I made it a job requirement for all of our employees to watch 4 Weddings and Wedding Island. I figure it's the absolute best way to provide compassionate customer service. What's your excuse for your addiction?

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) ? Pope Francis' decision to shun a major security detail for his visit to Brazil exemplifies his view of what the Roman Catholic Church should be doing: Go out into the streets. Spread the faith. Recapture the dynamism that other denominations have been using to snap up souls.

Upon his arrival in Rio de Janeiro this week, that philosophy helped produce a defining vignette of his young papacy: The pope rolling down the window to touch the adoring crowds who surrounded his Fiat as his driver and bodyguards struggled to get him on his way.

His call for a more missionary church, seeking out the faithful in the most marginal of places, will get even more traction Thursday when he visits one of Rio's shantytowns, or favelas, and meets a family inside their home. But while his subordinates may appreciate that message, many are uneasy about the lengths he seems willing to go to deliver it.

"He's used that phrase that we have to get out to the streets, we can't stay locked up in our sacristies, we can't be navel-gazing all the time," U.S. Cardinal Timothy Dolan said in interview Tuesday in Rio de Janeiro.

Dolan, however, expressed concern over Monday's swarm and said security might need to be tightened for Francis' own good.

"I love him and I don't want another conclave. We just finished one so we don't need him to be hurt at all," Dolan said.

Francis' car was mobbed after the lead car in his motorcade made a wrong turn and got blocked by buses and taxis, enabling tens of thousands of frenzied Brazilians to surround him. But even along the planned route, there were few fences and no uniformed police or armed forces, as would be expected for a visiting head of state. Just a few dozen plainclothes Vatican and Brazilian security officers trotted alongside Francis' car, at times unable to keep the crowds at bay.

Top Vatican officials met Tuesday with senior Brazilian officials to go over the pope's security and made some changes: On Wednesday, Francis will use only the closed car when he travels in Rio to a hospital to meet with patients, rather than switch to the open-air car midway through as had been planned.

The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, insisted the change was taken merely to "simplify" the pope's travel and was not a reflection of increased concern about his safety.

Brazilian security officials defended their handling of the pope's tour through Rio, saying Tuesday that an evaluation of his arrival by federal police, the mayor's office and highway police was "positive, since there was no incident involving the pope or with any of the faithful."

Authorities in Brazil said earlier that about 10,000 police officers and more than 14,000 soldiers would take part in the overall papal security plan, but on Monday virtually no uniformed officers were seen.

Andreas Widmer, a former Swiss Guard who protected Pope John Paul II from 1986 to 1988, said the scenes from Rio were reminiscent of some of the more hair-raising trips John Paul took, even after he was wounded in a 1981 assassination attempt in St. Peter's Square. He sees it as part of the pontiff's job.

"Fundamentally one has to see that the pope is not like a president," Widmer said Tuesday in a telephone interview from Boston. "You can shut the president in a house and he never sees any normal people. The pope's office is a ministry, and a ministry cannot be impeded by security."

"You cannot be pope and not see people," Widmer said.

Sao Paulo Cardinal Odilo Scherer said that "nothing happened when the pope was stuck in traffic" and that "we shouldn't exaggerate the psychosis of security" when it comes to protecting the pope.

It is Francis' wish that his security not be "militarized," Lombardi said.

Francis stopped to kiss babies and shake hands thrust into the window of his car, and once he reached Rio's center, he switched to his open-air vehicle and drove right back into the crowds.

The moment was particularly unnerving in light of sometimes violent anti-government protests that have been going on across Brazil for a month. It also was embarrassing for security officials who are charged with keeping order during next year's World Cup and the 2016 Olympics.

"I was so surprised!" said the Rev. Joseph Tan, a priest from the Philippines who echoed the reaction of many in Rio for the papal visit.

"In the Philippines, people would have gathered to get a glimpse, but nothing like what we saw," Tan said. "But that's the pope's personality. He was just being himself."

Francis was dubbed the "slum pope" in his native Argentina for the amount of time he spent in dangerous areas while he was archbishop there. And in a speech that some say helped get him elected pope, then-Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio told colleagues that the church must "move toward the peripheries, not only geographic but also existential."

Francis is in Brazil for World Youth Day, a church event that takes place about every three years and brings together young Catholics from around the world.

A cold rain Tuesday night didn't stop upward of 500,000 faithful from gathering on Rio's Copacabana beach to mark the event. Clergy celebrated the opening Mass on a huge white stage covered with a bright red carpet as the crowd held aloft flags from dozens of nations.

But Rio's woes didn't stop: The city's main subway lines ground to a halt for two hours, just before the Mass. Officials said an energy cable snapped in a main station.

The pope had no public events Tuesday. On Wednesday, he travels to Aparecida, where the governor said 1,800 police will provide security. Plans are for Francis to use his open-air popemobile for the one-kilometer (half-mile) trip from a helipad to the Aparecida basilica, where he'll celebrate Mass.

He's traveling to the town to venerate the Virgin of Aparecida, Brazil's patron saint. About 200,000 faithful are expected to pack into the normally sleepy hamlet, where Francis is expected to greet crowds from a balcony.

Francis normally uses the open-air vehicle in St. Peter's Square, which is ringed with Vatican and Italian police, and where the faithful are fenced into pens as bodyguards trail him. And despite the change to a closed car for the pope's Wednesday drive in Rio, church officials gave no indication of any shift away from his plan to use the open popemobile in substantially less controlled conditions this week: at a welcome speech on Copacabana beach Thursday, a Way of the Cross procession Friday, and a weekend vigil and Mass in a rural part of Rio.

Lombardi said the pontiff decided not to use his bulletproof popemobile at those events so he could be closer to people and interact with them.

Security experts said the scene on Rio's streets Monday show how challenging it is to strike the right balance in protecting the outgoing pope.

"From the point of view of a head of state, and the pope is a head of state, it's unacceptable what happened," said Paulo Storani, a Rio-based security consultant who spent nearly 30 years on the city's police force and was a captain in an elite unit used to clear out slums. "On the other hand, in the case of a head of a church and having a charismatic figure like this pope, the situation is different because he wants to be close to the people."

Ignacio Cano, a researcher at the Violence Analysis Center at Rio de Janeiro State University, said that although authorities would like to surround the pope with protection, that "goes against the message he wants to impart, which is one of simplicity, openness and approximation."

Univ. of MD finds that marijuana use in adolescence may cause permanent brain abnormalities

Preclinical research published in Neuropsychopharmacology finds lifelong impact from marijuana use during critical period of development in adolescence

Regular marijuana use in adolescence, but not adulthood, may permanently impair brain function and cognition, and may increase the risk of developing serious psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, according to a recent study from the University of Maryland School of Medicine. Researchers hope that the study, published in Neuropsychopharmacology a publication of the journal Nature will help to shed light on the potential long-term effects of marijuana use, particularly as lawmakers in Maryland and elsewhere contemplate legalizing the drug.

"Over the past 20 years, there has been a major controversy about the long-term effects of marijuana, with some evidence that use in adolescence could be damaging," says the study's senior author Asaf Keller, Ph.D., Professor of Anatomy and Neurobiology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. "Previous research has shown that children who started using marijuana before the age of 16 are at greater risk of permanent cognitive deficits, and have a significantly higher incidence of psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia. There likely is a genetic susceptibility, and then you add marijuana during adolescence and it becomes the trigger."

"Adolescence is the critical period during which marijuana use can be damaging," says the study's lead author, Sylvina Mullins Raver, a Ph.D. candidate in the Program in Neuroscience in the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. "We wanted to identify the biological underpinnings and determine whether there is a real, permanent health risk to marijuana use."

The scientists including co-author Sarah Paige Haughwout, a research technician in Dr. Keller's laboratory began by examining cortical oscillations in mice. Cortical oscillations are patterns of the activity of neurons in the brain and are believed to underlie the brain's various functions. These oscillations are very abnormal in schizophrenia and in other psychiatric disorders. The scientists exposed young mice to very low doses of the active ingredient in marijuana for 20 days, and then allowed them to return to their siblings and develop normally.

"In the adult mice exposed to marijuana ingredients in adolescence, we found that cortical oscillations were grossly altered, and they exhibited impaired cognitive abilities," says Ms. Raver. "We also found impaired cognitive behavioral performance in those mice. The striking finding is that, even though the mice were exposed to very low drug doses, and only for a brief period during adolescence, their brain abnormalities persisted into adulthood."

The scientists repeated the experiment, this time administering marijuana ingredients to adult mice that had never been exposed to the drug before. Their cortical oscillations and ability to perform cognitive behavioral tasks remained normal, indicating that it was only drug exposure during the critical period of adolescence that impaired cognition through this mechanism. The researchers took the next step in their studies, trying to pinpoint the mechanisms underlying these changes and the time period in which they occur.

"We looked at the different regions of the brain," says Dr. Keller. "The back of the brain develops first, and the frontal parts of the brain develop during adolescence. We found that the frontal cortex is much more affected by the drugs during adolescence. This is the area of the brain controls executive functions such as planning and impulse control. It is also the area most affected in schizophrenia."

Dr. Keller's team believes that the results have indications for humans as well. They will continue to study the underlying mechanisms that cause these changes in cortical oscillations. "The purpose of studying these mechanisms is to see whether we can reverse these effects," says Dr. Keller. "We are hoping we will learn more about schizophrenia and other psychiatric disorders, which are complicated conditions. These cognitive symptoms are not affected by medication, but they might be affected by controlling these cortical oscillations."

"This study is an example of how the basic science research taking place in our state-of-the-art laboratories can impact human health and inform health policy," says E. Albert Reece, M.D., Ph.D., M.B.A., Vice President for Medical Affairs at the University of Maryland and John Z. and Akiko K. Bowers Distinguished Professor and Dean of the University of Maryland School of Medicine. "We are proud of this groundbreaking discovery and look forward to watching this research develop further."

Biden arrives in Delhi to fire up US-India ties

NEW DELHI: US Vice President Joe Biden arrived in India on Monday for a four-day visit designed to revive flagging diplomatic ties and fire up bilateral trade.

Biden, the first US vice president to visit India in three decades, will meet senior leaders including Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in New Delhi on Tuesday before heading to the financial hub Mumbai to deliver a keynote speech on the economy.

Biden, accompanied by his wife Jill, landed in New Delhi shortly after 5pm (1130 GMT), and immediately visited a museum in the capital dedicated to independence hero Mahatma Gandhi.

In an interview published in the Times of India newspaper before his arrival, Biden said the world's two biggest democracies had a "tremendous capability to work together" but should be doing more.

He also emphasised that he wanted to see an acceleration in bilateral trade, which he said was on track to meet US$100 billion this year.

"The United States has welcomed India's emergence and both nations have profited from it," the vice president said.

"India's rise as a global economic power is one of the most powerful stories of the 21st century."

The announcement of Biden's visit was made during a trip to India last month by Secretary of State John Kerry, who sought to allay Indian fears about the aftermath of next year's withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan.

India, which has spent more than two billion dollars of aid in Afghanistan, fears a possible return to power by the Taliban, hardline Islamists who were strong allies of Pakistan before being toppled in 2001.

Talks between the US and the Taliban were due to start last month after the Islamists opened an office in Doha, but they collapsed before even getting off the ground.

In his meeting with Indian leaders, Biden is expected to reiterate that the US will not support any peace process involving the Taliban unless they renounce violence.

"If the Taliban are to have any role in Afghanistan's political future, they will need to break ties with al-Qaeda, stop supporting violence and accept the Afghan constitution as part of the outcomes of any negotiated peace settlement," he told the Times of India.

"We strongly support the role India has played in Afghanistan, leveraging its economic strength to improve Afghanistan's economy... in projects that will help to ensure our common goal of a stable and prosperous future for the Afghan people," he added.

Biden will fly on Wednesday to Mumbai where he is expected to hold a roundtable with business leaders and press for stronger intellectual property protection.

While trade has grown in recent years, there is still widespread frustration among US business leaders over what they see as unfair trading practices.

Among the points of contention is India's championing of generic drugs despite protests from Western drug firms.

India in turn has been alarmed by proposals in the US Congress to curb visas for high-tech workers.

Finance Minister P. Chidambaram and Commerce Minister Anand Sharma were both in Washington last week to pitch for investment and discuss India's readiness to open talks on a bilateral investment treaty.

Biden will be the most senior administration official to visit India since President Barack Obama visited in 2010.

While the US has been among the world powers calling for India to be given a permanent seat at the UN Security Council, observers detect a sense of drift in ties.

"India is a natural ally of the US but... relations require greasing occasionally because insecurities have crept in, especially on the Indian side," Subhash Agrawal, of the Delhi-based think tank India Focus, told AFP.

Biden will head to Singapore on Thursday, where officials say he will tackle tensions over the disputed South China Sea.

Vietnamese dissident said weak from hunger strike

HANOI, Vietnam (AP) -- One of Vietnam's most prominent dissidents is on the 30th day of a hunger strike in protest against being held under solitary confinement, family members said Monday, casting fresh attention on Vietnam's human rights record ahead of trip by the country's president this week to the White House.

Nguyen Van Hai, also known as Dieu Cay, is serving a 12-year prison term for conducting "propaganda against the state" in relation to his blogging and citizen media activities. His case has been mentioned by President Barack Obama, whose administration is appealing for the release of political prisoners.

It is unclear whether human rights will be discussed in talks scheduled for Thursday between Obama and Vietnam's President Truong Tan Sang. Administration officials have said in the past that closer ties between Vietnam, which shares U.S. concerns about China, would be difficult unless it release dissidents and loosens its grip on freedom of expression.

Hai's son, Nguyen Tri Dung, said he was allowed to meet with his father for five minutes on Saturday at "Prison No. 6" in central Nghe An province. Earlier this month, his ex-wife visited and Hai was dragged away when he told her about his hunger strike.

"He is in a very serious condition, I could not recognize him, his face was color and he could not sit," Dung told The Associated Press.

Dung and Hai's ex-wife Duong Thi Tan were waiting outside the prison on Monday for talks with prison officials.

Prison authorities were not immediately available for comment.

Dung said Hai, 60, told him that he would continue his hunger strike until prosecutors responded to his complaints that he had been put in solitary confinement illegally.

Human Rights Watch said Monday it was concerned about Hai's health.

"The government should also immediately release Dieu Cay without conditions, along with other prisoners held for exercising their rights to express their views and peacefully act on their beliefs," it said in a statement.

Hai is one of Vietnam's most well-known dissidents at home and abroad, and the co-founder of the Club for Free Journalists. The group was established in September 2007 to promote freedom of expression and independent journalism. He was first detained in 2007 as a result of his political views. His 12-year prison term began in September.

The U.S. administration has repeatedly called on Vietnam to allow freedom of expression in the communist country. The ruling party has shown few signs it is listening, apparently concerned that allowing greater political freedom would result in it losing power. The rapid spread of the Internet in the country has opened new avenues for dissent. So far this year, 46 people have been convicted and sentenced for dissident activities, many of them bloggers.

SAN FRANCISCO - A Chinese girl died in a San Francisco hospital on Friday, becoming the third fatality in the crash of an Asiana Airlines jet at the city's airport last Saturday, doctors and Chinese officials said.

The teenage girl, who died on Friday morning, had been in critical condition, according to a statement from two doctors at San Francisco General Hospital. Her parents asked the hospital not to release further information.

The girl was a Chinese national, according to the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco. She was part of a group of students from eastern China who were visiting the United States to attend summer camp, one of the trip organizers said. He said she was 16.

The crash landing of the Boeing 777 also killed two other Chinese girls from the school group and injured more than 180 people. Ye Mengyuan and Wang Linjia, the two teenagers who died on Saturday, were sitting in the back of the plane, which hit the seawall and suffered the most damage.

One of the girls was run over by a fire truck rushing to the scene, the San Francisco Police Department said on Friday, although it was unclear whether she was still alive at the time.

She was obscured by fire retardant foam and was found in the fire truck's tracks when it moved to fight flames in the fuselage, police spokesman Albie Esparza said.

The coroner in San Mateo County, where the airport is located, has said he will release the autopsy results of the two girls who died on Saturday within two weeks.

Most of the injured passengers were taken to San Francisco General Hospital and to Stanford Hospital & Clinics.

San Francisco General, which originally received 67 patients, still has six, including two in critical condition. The six suffered a combination of spinal cord and traumatic brain injuries, abdominal injuries, internal bleeding, road rash and fractures, the hospital said.

Stanford still has one patient, who is in serious condition, a spokesman said. It treated 55 patients from the crash.

At least seven patients remain at other hospitals.
