...wants to exercise when it's 100 degrees outside? The South is really hot and humid. Nobody in Mississippi goes running in the summer - at least, nobody sane. Bassett points out that Colorado, the state with the lowest obesity rate (18.9%), is relatively affluent and has a temperate climate and plenty of trails that lend themselves to outdoor activities. (See a special report on the science of appetite...
...From the moment Palin appeared onstage last summer, one central narrative was whether she could possibly juggle her complex personal and public lives. By now we're used to seeing stories about professional women who conclude that "having it all" is a myth and leave the arena in search of their inner Donna Reed. This "trend" is used to explain the paradox that women now make up a majority of college grads and have roughly matched men in law and business and medical schools but are still paid less and remain dramatically underrepresented in executive suites, not to mention statehouses...
...likely to be an ugly summer of sausage-grinding in Washington. Obama's two biggest domestic-policy proposals - health-care reform and alternative energy - will be pulverized and reshaped by the Senate.

...With salmon and wood smoke fragrant in the endless summer evening, amid wet socks and waders and red rubber fishing gloves, Palin tells TIME, "I cannot predict what's going to happen. I don't know what doors will be open or closed by then. I was telling Todd today, I was saying, 'Man, I wish we could predict the next fish run so that we know when to be out on the water.' We can't predict the next fish run, much less what's going to happen...
...when the soon-to-be-ex-governor of Alaska sat down for an interview. The Kallstroms are two of the 2,500 full-time residents of Dillingham, Alaska, and owners of the Bristol Bay Inn and a hardware store. The town's population swells to 7,000 in the summer, as it's a magnet for sport fishermen. Todd Palin grew up in a house across the street from the hardware store - a building that has since been "moved," Blanche says, to make way for another building...
