...There aren't many head-to-head studies of brand-name diet regimens, and now we know why. When scientists assigned 160 overweight or obese adults to one of four diets?Atkins, Ornish, Weight Watchers or Zone?the results were hardly dramatic. After a year of dieting, the average weight loss for women was about 2.25 kg and for men about 3 kg?and it didn't matter much which diet they were on. Perhaps the most significant finding was how many test subjects dropped out: half of the Atkins and Ornish groups, a third of Weight Watchers and Zone...
...recognize the name Paju, chances are that it conjures up visions of soldiers and barbed wire. As the South Korean city closest to the Demilitarized Zone that divides the South from communist North Korea, Paju has long lived beneath a cloud of military tension. Now, a nearby cultural venture known as Heyri Art Valley (heyri.net) is trying to change that image by establishing the area as a mecca of arts tourism...
...Have these two earthquakes finally relieved the region's tectonic stress? A: Don't bet on it. The area off the coast of Sumatra is a subduction zone, a highly unstable region where the India Plate, the Australia Plate, the Sunda Plate and the Burma Micro-Plate collide and dive beneath one another. Earthquakes tend to occur in clusters in subduction zones, and McCloskey says his initial findings indicate that the latest quake has accentuated the stress along the Sunda Trench fault for another 300 km south. The result is like the steady growth of a crack...
...catalyst was more often than not Collins, already the focus of the UNH offense with a goal and an assist. With the stanza passing its midway point, the winger carried an outlet pass from the Wildcats’ zone through neutral ice and into the Crimson end by himself, where, had he not fallen down of his own accord, a 1-on-0 surely would have been his. He would nearly find redemption twice in quick succession before all was said and done, though...
...hilarious dialogue like this. "A Chronicle of Modern Times" covers a good stretch of Crumb's career, from his early formative years to his recent autobiographical work. If it all gets too much, there's a chance to drop out, or at least drop off, in a chill-out zone with Crumb's music on the soundtrack. He plays the banjo, composes his own music, and is into early jazz. Crumb's wife, Aline Kominsky-Crumb, is also a cartoonist and sometimes they produce his-and-hers strips - he draws him, she draws her. A Day in Our Beautiful Life...
