...Timothy Church, who holds the rather grand title of chair in health wisdom at LSU. Church's team randomly assigned into four groups 464 overweight women who didn't regularly exercise. Women in three of the groups were asked to work out with a personal trainer for 72 min., 136 min., and 194 min. per week, respectively, for six months. Women in the fourth cluster, the control group, were told to maintain their usual physical-activity routines. All the women were asked not to change their dietary habits and to fill out monthly medical-symptom questionnaires...
...door open to the possibility of re-engaging Washington in talks - though not in the so-called six-party format, which includes all of North Korea's direct neighbors, that Obama favors. "We must pay keen attention to what signal North Korea sent to Bill Clinton," says Yun Duk min, a professor at a think tank affiliated with the South Korean Foreign Ministry. "A key to break the stalemate may lie in there." (See pictures of North Koreans going to the polls...
...Indeed, the former President's trip to Pyongyang evokes the never-ending back-to-the-future quality of dealing with North Korea. "They've repeated the same pattern over the past two decades," says Yun Duk-min of the Institute of Foreign Affairs and National Security in Seoul, a Foreign Ministry think tank. Ratchet up the nuclear tensions, declare diplomacy dead, and then hope to win even bigger concessions as talks reconvene later.

The new movie will be hard pressed to duplicate that word-of-mouth salesmanship. For most audiences, Apatow's 2-hr. 24-min. attempt to encase a James L. Brooks-style comedy-drama in an overflowing condom of penis jokes didn't work. Instead of a Terms of Endearment, it's more like Brooks' last flop movie. Yep, Spanglish.

That heart comes bursting out of Funny People, Apatow's intermittently engaging, 2 hr. 26 min. essay in schizo-cinemaphrenia. A transparent attempt to make a grown-up film, it's got two worldviews - one comically misanthropic, the other sloppily sentimental - that have little in common with each other. It's as if, halfway through, you went out for popcorn and mistakenly returned to an auditorium showing a different picture. And that second movie ends immolating itself.
