Larry DAVIDThe Emmy-winning HBO comedy series Curb Your Enthusiasm returns for its ninth season Oct. 1 after a six-year hiatus. Larry David, 70, will be back as a semi-fictionalized version of himself in an unsparing, over-the-top cheeky depiction of his life.After six years away, why come back? Why not? I don’t really miss things or people that much. But I was missing it. And I got tired of people asking me, “Is the show coming back?” I couldn’t face that question anymore, and I wasn’t ready to say, “No, never.”

Why did you stop doing the show initially? I like to quit things. It’s a very satisfying thing, quit-ting. Did you ever go up to a boss and say, “I’m done. I’ve had it. Go to hell”? It’s fun.

Was it difficult getting back into the groove? I had trouble the first take, and I thought, Jeez, I’ve lost it. How am I going to do this?

On an upcoming episode of Finding Your Roots, you discover that you are related to Bernie Sanders, whom you had played so well on Saturday Night Live. I love Bernie. I thought there must have been some connection, you know? He’s probably some distant cousin, maybe a third cousin or something. I’m sure everybody’s curious about their roots. I am human, so I thought that it would be interesting to find out who my ancestors were.

WALTER SCOTT ASKS

Who’ll be his guest stars this season on Curb Your Enthusiasm? Go to Parade.com/david to find out.

The Dallas-born actress owns two oil wells in Texas.

As a teenager, she danced in a Doritos commercial.

She launched her acting career on the soap opera Santa Barbara.

She has two children—daughter Dylan, 26, and son Hopper, 24—with ex-husband Sean Penn.

She has directed nine episodes of House of Cards.

She was Buttercup in The Princess Bride, Jenny in Forrest

Gump, Antiope in Wonder Woman and plays cutthroat Claire in House of Cards. Now Robin Wright, 51, rocks the future as Lieutenant Joshi in Blade Runner 2049 (Oct. 6), set 30 years after the first film, in which an LAPD officer (Ryan Gosling) finds a long-lost secret that threatens to plunge what’s left of society into even more calamity and chaos.

ROCKIN’ ROBIN

Will Lea Michele be singing on her new series, The Mayor?

—Marcia C., Houston, Texas A: The Glee and Scream Queens star is taking a break from singing to focus on acting in the ABC comedy, premiering Oct. 3, about a young rapper (Brandon Micheal Hall) who runs for mayor of his small Califor-nia town as a publicity stunt—and wins. Michele, 32, will be playing Valentina Barella, his chief of staff. “I grew up watching Tina Fey and Amy Poehler on Satur-day Night Live, so getting back to my comedy roots is what I wanted to do,” she says.

Did working on his new TV series about ghosts make Adam Scott believe in the paranormal?

—Julie N., Los Angeles, Calif. A: That’s a big no. On the new comedy Ghosted, premiering Oct. 1 on Fox, the Parks

and Recreation star plays Max Jen-nifer, a former astrophysicist and a true believer in the paranormal. He partners with a former missing

persons detective, Leroy Wright (Craig Robinson), to investigate strange goings-on in Los An-geles. “I don’t believe in any of it,” he says. “I’m the opposite of my character on the show.”

Cornish RogueThings get spicy when Poldark—set in 18th-century Cornwall, England—returns for its third season on PBS’ Masterpiece Oct. 1. The French Revolution is casting a long shadow over the world of British Army officer Ross Poldark (Aidan Turner), who has cheated on his wife, Demelza (Eleanor Tomlinson), with his first love, Elizabeth (Heida Reed). And Elizabeth is pregnant. What is Poldark to do? Turner, 34, says we can expect his character to act a little more grown-up this season: “He’s becoming more mature, and his decisions are more measured.”

We learned in school that sugar is neither an acid nor a base. It’s a neutral substance. So why does it corrode our teeth and cause cavities?

—Amanda Linden, Flagstaff, Ariz.

This is one of those questions to which you may not want to hear the answer! But here goes: Human mouths are home to hundreds of species of bacteria. (I know: Ugh.) One in particular (Streptococcus mutans) feeds on carbohydrates. It excretes lactic acid as waste, and that acid is what eats into tooth enamel and creates cavities. So don’t blame your favorite treats! Just be sure to brush often.

MOTIV RINGThe Fitbit craze is everywhere, but now Motiv has come along with an even simpler way to track your heart rate, steps, sleep and more. The new Motiv Ring tracks everything a bracelet or watch does, but in a less intrusive (and more fashion-able) way. There’s a choice of Slate Gray or Rose Gold, and I hope they come out with Goldtone soon!

AIR FRYERI’m a lover of french fries, but not a fan of fried foods, calories and adverse health ef-fects. So, the GoWise USA air fryer is spot-on for our more health-conscious times. It makes the crispiest french fries, chicken wings and more with just a drop of oil or none at all; you decide! One of my new favorite things.

Drew Logan doesn’t look like someone death would want to mess with. But on Oct. 4, 2004, it tried—three times. The elite fitness pro, who works out for hours a day with

athletes and actors, was spending a quiet night in Nashville with his then-girlfriend when he suffered sudden cardiac

arrest (SCA), a complication with the heart’s electrical system that less than 10 percent of people survive.

“I remember hitting the carpet facedown, and I knew I was dying,” says Logan, now 43. “People always ask me how I knew, but it’s just like how you know you’re in love. You just know, and there wasn’t any time to resist it.”

Possibly because of his physical conditioning, Logan’s body did resist the first SCA and he woke up woozy and confused. But before he could get out the door to the ER, another one hit, and he had to be revived by paramedics. He suffered a third after he arrived at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. His doctors told him that surviving three SCAs—two outside the hospital—was a phenomenon they’d never seen.

Cheating death that night changed Logan’s approach to life—and his life’s work. He talks all about it in his new book, 25 Days: A Proven Program to Rewire

Your Brain, Stop Weight Gain, and Finally Crush the Habits You Hate—Forever. The Los Angeles–based pro, who has trained Keith Urban, The Flash’s Jesse L. Martin and NBA star Nazr Mohammed, simplified the training he’d practiced with top-tier clientele for years. And it works just as well—if not better.

“When I was younger, I didn’t understand why everyone didn’t work out. I thought fitness was super easy,” he says. “Now I know that’s not empowering and I feel like a jerk! If I hadn’t had cardiac arrest, I never would have understood the pain, fear and insecurity that people bring with them when they come to me for help.”

The Night the Lights Went OutBefore he even graduated college, the Lexington, Ky.-born Logan had built a business as a personal trainer. By age 30, he’d relocated to Nashville to work with NFL and NBA athletes.

He stayed close to his family, and his mom, Judy, and dad, Ron, were there for him after his cardiac arrests. Logan recalls what Ron, a Vietnam vet, told him after seeing him in the hospital bed: “I’ve seen more death in my life than anyone deserves to see. And when I walked in the room, you were a dead man. So I just cried and prayed.”

Logan pauses and chuckles. “The story gets funnier from there—we’ve gone through the dark parts.”

Within days, he was out of danger, but doctors were still flummoxed about what had caused a healthy 30-year-old to suffer cardiac arrest. Every test indicated a heart in top form—no evidence of scar tissue, no trace of the trauma it had been through. They spent hours trying to recreate the SCA in a con-trolled experiment but came up empty-handed.

In the absence of a problem to treat, the only solution was a safeguard: an implantable defibrillator that will automatically shock his heart back into rhythm should he ever suffer another SCA. His therapy dog, Lucky, pro-vides backup, alerting Logan when his cortisol levels rise, indicating a stress level that could be dangerous given his history. (See “Life With Lucky” on page 10.)

In the hospital, he watched a video created for patients who get pacemakers, starring a cast of senior citizens, and shook his head. For most car-diac patients, the idea of getting back to the gym is terrifying. But for Logan, already in the throes of post-traumatic depression, it felt crucial.

“I was more afraid I was going to lose my mind if I didn’t work out—because without exercise I didn’t feel like myself,” he says.

Conquering the Mental BattleAfter some tweaking with the defibrillator’s pacemaker—which initially would sound an alarm when his heart rate reached a certain threshold—Logan quickly settled back into the type of physical regimen he was used to. What he hadn’t anticipated were the mental challenges.

“The kind of training you do with elite ath-letes is very detailed, and there’s a lot of math behind it, like calculating metabolic resting

rates, which I always enjoyed,” he says. “But now it was taking me hours where it used to just take me a few minutes. It was like Greek.”

Years later, Logan learned this was likely due to mild brain trauma caused by oxygen depriva-tion before he was revived. At the time, he just knew he was frustrated. He decided to go back to basics and give clients a list of simple benchmarks to meet. He asked them to score themselves out of 100 each day on how well they followed the guidelines for meals, snacks and workouts.

“If you do what you’re supposed to do that day, you get an A-plus,” he says. “It was so dorky that at the time I thought it was really stupid.”

Logan figured it would just be a temporary solution until his brain fogginess cleared, but his clients loved the new plan. He heard less defeat in their voices. If they slipped up and ate cookies on Monday, oh well, they told him, tomorrow is another day to get an A.

“They started saying, ‘I didn’t know it could be this easy,’ ” he says. “And I thought, Me neither!”

People were getting results so fast that after four weeks, they often had enough success that they didn’t need his ongoing support.

His 25 Days program was born. And it turned out that the idea he once thought was too simplistic to be effective had a lot of science behind it. It’s a concept called neurological patterning, and it has to do with the way our brains form habits out of a feedback loop of repetition and reward, eventually becoming a default setting that can override bad impulses. (It’s no coincidence that addiction recovery programs are often built on a similar one-day-at-a-time model.) Giving yourself an A gives you a burst of feel-good brain chemical dopamine, which makes you want to repeat the behavior that triggered it.

“It’s positive reinforcement on a chemical level,” Logan says. “These are patterns created by our brain that feel like ‘addiction’ if they’re bad habits, but feel like great things if they’re good for you.”

But you don’t have to understand the science behind it—most people just want a plan to follow. Logan has seen this one work for himself, high-profile clients and even his

70-year-old dad. “It’s not a com-petition against anyone else—or your younger self. It’s just, ‘Did I do it at all?’ ”

And at its core, it’s a philoso-phy born out of Logan’s brush—or three—with death: “Tomorrow might not come, and yesterday doesn’t really matter that much. Let’s just try to control today.”

Life With Lucky Drew Logan’s therapy dog, Lucky, came to live with him almost 11 years ago as an 8-week-old puppy.

A Plott hound, a popular breed for hunting, he has an exception-al sense of smell, which means he knows when Logan’s cortisol levels—which indicate stress and can be detected in saliva—are getting too high.

“When he smells it, he’ll lick the palm of my hand or jump into my lap and look into my eyes as if to ask, ‘Are you OK?’” Logan says. Once in a crowded airport, Lucky started barking and forcefully pulled Logan to a bench to sit down.

“Lucky’s function is not to save my life—I have the defibrillator for that,” Logan says. “His purpose is to get me out of harm’s way if he feels like I’m in a stressful situa-tion. He’s a very smart dog.”

Easier is better with the all-new Jitterbug.Introducing the all-new Jitterbug® Flip from GreatCall®, the creators of the original easy-to-use cell phone, now with bigger buttons and an exclusive 5Star® Urgent Response button on the keypad.

EASY TO USE Today, cell phones are hard to hear, difficult to dial and overloaded with features you may never use. That’s not the case with the Jitterbug Flip. A larger screen and bigger buttons make it easy to call family and friends. The powerful speaker ensures every conversation will be loud and clear. Plus, straightforward YES and NO buttons make navigating the menu simple.

EASY TO ENJOY A newly designed built-in camera makes it easy and fun for you to capture and share your favorite memories. And a new flashlight with a built-in magnifier helps you see in dimly lit areas. With all the features you need, the Jitterbug Flip also comes with a long-lasting battery, so you won’t have to worry about running out of power.

EASY TO BE PREPARED Life has a way of being unpredictable, but you can turn your phone into a personal safety device when you select a Health & Safety Package. With 5Star Service, in any uncertain or unsafe situation, simply press the 5Star button to speak immediately with a highly-trained Urgent Response Agent who will confirm your location, evaluate your situation and get you the help you need, 24/7.

The Jitterbug Flip is one of the most affordable cell phones on the market. And with GreatCall, there are no contracts to sign and no cancellation fees. Plus, coverage is powered by the nation’s largest and most dependable wireless network. For a limited time, the Jitterbug Flip is available at select Walmart stores.

*Monthly fees do not include government taxes or assessment surcharges and are subject to change. Plans and services may require purchase of a GreatCall device and a one-time setup fee of $35. Coverage is not available everywhere. 5Star or 9-1-1 calls can only be made when cellular service is available. 5Star Service will be able to track an approximate location when your device is turned on and connected to the network, but we cannot guarantee an exact location.
