...surer way to really change body shape is through exercise. That's where Masai Barefoot Technology comes in. Its clunky $234 MBT sneakers were originally designed as orthopedic shoes and are meant to re-create the natural gait of folks who walk barefoot for distances on uneven surfaces-like the Masai people of East Africa. The shoes have a curved sole that forces you to use muscles you probably didn't know you had. The uneven sole means you have to actively balance, which helps your posture and works your legs and abdominals. They might not get rid of your...

Bush strides along the White House colonnade with a West Wing gait, and footage of him talking is interspersed with images of Americans living their lives in an uncertain world.
