...Obese boys and girls are already starting to develop the illnesses of excess associated with people in their 40s and beyond: heart disease, liver disease, diabetes, gallstones, joint breakdown and even brain damage as fluid accumulation inside the skull leads to headaches, vision problems and possibly lower IQs. A staggering 90% of overweight kids already have at least one avoidable risk factor for heart disease, such as high cholesterol or hypertension. Type 2 diabetes is now being diagnosed in teens as young as 15. Health experts warn that the current generation of children may be the first in American history...

But when the Jury gets down to business, art wins out over entertainment. Indeed, for the second year in a row, not a single English-language movie was honored at Cannes...
...group, the Platters or the Drifters, reconvened to sing their hits at a pbs oldies concert. They mime their classic choreography--and may cheat on the high notes--but it's a treat just to see them trying. That's the instant movie nostalgia of Crystal Skull. It's got the old airs and familiar faces and works up a commendable sweat. All that's missing is the magic...
