...gain. "Because our bodies are naturally cued to eat at certain times of the day, dining at the wrong time might affect the body's ability to maintain its energy balance," he explains, meaning that our body starts to use its calories differently than it normally would. That in turn could cause fluctuations in numerous hormones, including an increase in ghrelin and a decrease in leptin - the two key hormones that govern appetite and satiety. The hunger hormone ghrelin, which is produced by the stomach, sends a "feed me" message to the brain; leptin, the satiety hormone, signals the brain...
...cigarette-smoking madman is perhaps the best male performance of 2009. The rest of his team includes characters played by Anthonie Mackie and Brian Geraghty, the latter essentially reprising his deer-in-the-headlights role in “Jarhead.” Ralph Fiennes and David Morse also turn in amusing cameo roles.

"Every time you turn around, there he is, there he is, there he is," Dean grouses. And lately, at least, every time Obama turns around, he seems to give conservatives an opening to pounce on him. Which is why many Democrats as well as Republicans suggest it might be good to webcast a speech...
...that reason, the Bongo succession was viewed as a test of the repeated promises French President Nicolas Sarkozy has made to turn the page on Françafrique by treating African partners as equals - and allowing their voters to decide their destinies for themselves. "If you choose democracy, liberty, justice and law, then France will be with you to construct them," Sarkozy told a crowd of university students in Dakar, Senegal, in July...
