...lead an army, Joe Trippi wouldn't be the first person you'd think of to run it. Maybe it is his style, or lack of it. He would shuffle about in worn-out shoes, wrinkled pants and ensembles that never matched, armed at all times with a Diet Coke and a vocal, if rambling, opinion. Howard Dean's campaign manager doesn't seem to go an hour without talking to a reporter, and for weeks wore a microphone around-the-clock for a documentary on him that was scheduled to air on CNN this spring...

...soybeans, that researchers believe may lower cholesterol. Grapes, especially those grown in cooler climates, also contain resveratrol, which may play a role in longevity. The chemical has been shown in the lab to prolong the life of yeast by 70%, and it mimics the effects of a low-calorie diet, which can extend life span, at least in rodents, 30% to 50%. Scientists don't know whether resveratrol will turn out to be the fountain of youth for humans, but in the meantime, what better excuse to raise a glass or two of Bordeaux...
