Gewirtz's team, including researchers at Emory, Cornell University and the University of Colorado at Boulder, became intrigued by the relationship between gut bugs and weight when they noticed that lab mice lacking a certain protein had more of the bugs than other animals and were about 15% heavier. These mice also had a higher level of inflammation, which the authors explain in their paper published online Thursday in Science Express is what may account for the extra weight. Inflammatory signaling can promote a condition called metabolic syndrome, which causes weight gain, high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels...
...states such as California, Colorado and Oregon, it is hard to think about politics and government without speaking about ballot initiatives - some of which can come crashing down on a state capitol like a tsunami.

Until Vancouver, Weibrecht's calling card was an electrifying run at the Birds of Prey downhill in Beaver Creek, Colorado, a couple of years ago that both impressed and terrified the U.S. coaching staff. Small for a speed racer (5 ft. 6 in.; 1.65m) he's made steady progress, finishing 11th at the Super G in Kitzbuehel in January. He picked a great time to step into the limelight. Svindal won the gold...
...Still, Sabato cautions that "sometimes, we're too quick to draw conclusions from two or three data points." He notes that in Colorado, where Bennet is fighting a primary challenge from former Colorado house speaker Andrew Romanoff, Obama has the potential to kindle a groundswell of grass-roots support. Bennet was appointed to the seat last year, when Obama tapped former Colorado Senator Ken Salazar to join his Administration as Secretary of the Interior. A recent poll put Bennet 14 percentage points behind in a potential matchup with Republican candidate Jane Norton. (See pictures of Obama's State...
