...imbibing bloated him like a balloon. He added 10 lbs. onto his chiseled, compact frame. So he spent Monday ridding himself of water weight the tortured way in which wrestlers usually do: Cejudo hit the sauna, then wrapped himself in a plastic sweatsuit and rode an exercise bike. He shed it all in 90 minutes...
...make a series of ruinous concessions. Washington urged him to broaden his political base and enter a power-sharing agreement with the late Benazir Bhutto. Musharraf allowed Bhutto to come back to Pakistan, and Sharif returned weeks later. In the face of domestic and international pressure, Musharraf had to shed his uniform - the source of much of his authority. Matters grew worse when Bhutto was assassinated in Rawalpindi in late December. And a relatively free and fair general election in February stripped Musharraf of a loyal government as his allies suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of voters...
...Sauber - which used computational fluid dynamics to measure the parts of the body with the most drag. And biomechanists used flume testing (basically a lab set up in a pool, measuring drag as a current runs over the swimmer or mannequin) to measure exactly how much time each modification shed for the swimmer When I tried on the LZR, this drag-reducing technology was definitely the most pronounced advancement on the suit. I've raced in Fast Skin suits before, but the LZR feels different. Neither especially light nor heavy, it seemed fastest during the streamline, the position the swimmer...
...case. Their change of heart is perhaps understandable: since her arrest and incarceration a year ago, Petrella, 54, has fallen into a deep depression that doctors say has "caused her to lose the will to live". As a result, Petrella has largely been unable to eat, and has shed 20 percent of her body weight, now just 86 lbs. (39 kg). The gravity of her condition motivated French justice officials to seek Petrella's release on bail...
...staging ground for the NEEM project. Kangerlussuaq lies so far north that the sun never really sets in the summer, as I discover during a somewhat sleepless night. And the climate here is anything but Arctic. In the heat of the sun, temperatures exceed 70?F, and I shed layers of fleece as I take a jet-lagged walk around town. Not that there's anything to see: Kangerlussuaq didn't really exist until the Americans began using it as an air base in World War II, and though it reverted to Greenland control in 1992, it still feels like...
