...MARILYN MANSON Do they have backstage passes for the Oval Office? I don't think he deserves to be impeached, but if he is, he always has a job with me. He can be my tour manager, test-drive the girls...
...took a heroic leap into the enthralling unknown, the flourishing of art, the liberation of race and gender. Yet it can also be argued that the opening of those emotional pores brought a more debased culture: drug epidemics, teen pregnancy, splatter movies, penis-size jokes on every sitcom, Marilyn Manson and Monica Lewinsky.

You still have to cut down on saturated fats and excess calories. You still need to exercise (which, by the way, also decreases insulin levels). As a general rule, she adds, "the more processed a food, the less healthy it is. But [the glycemic index] can be carried to an extreme." So, eat your carrots, order up some whole-wheat toast and, for heaven's sake, get off that...
