• A Few Cookies a Day to Keep the Pounds Away?

  
  Through Your Body: — Authority: 131
  By ABBY ELLIN COOKIES ? On a diet ? Apparently so. Just ask Christina Kane, who has tried everything from the grapefruit diet to Atkins, with no success. Then she heard about Dr. Siegal’s Cookie Diet, which involves eating six prepackaged cookies a day, plus one ‘real’ meal — say, skinless chicken and ...

• Why Cant I Have Osmotic Power?

  
  An American Lion — Authority: 535
  Statkraft Osmotic Power Plant The reason why I can’t use Osmotic power to make all of my gadgets and doodads go is because I don’t live in a forward-thinking country. I live in America, where the only thing people think about is where they’re going to buy a bucket of yardbird to suck down after they sit on ...

• Exploring Religion, Shaped by the Enlightenment

  
  Through Your Body: — Authority: 131
  By PETER S. STEINFELS Why can’t religion and the Enlightenment be friends? What’s that, you say? They were friends? Why didn’t anyone tell us? Well, David Sorkin has.

• The European Model of Fighting Terrorism

  
  An American Lion — Authority: 535
  As much as it pains me to admit it, the Bush Administration fought terrorism the wrong way. Leaving a big footprint around the world has bloodied us badly and emptied the treasury. A lighter footprint, an emphasis on law enforcement techniques, and discounting the blind alley of political correctness seems to be ...

• Bright-Sided: Barbara Ehrenreich Examines the American Love of Positive Thinking

  
  Through Your Body: — Authority: 131
  By HANNA ROSIN I must confess, I have waited my whole life for someone to write a book like “Bright-Sided.” When I was a young child, my family moved to the United States from Israel, where churlishness is a point of pride. As I walked around wearing what I considered a neutral expression, strangers would ...

• Qualities of Excellence

  
  Punchinello's Chronicles — Authority: 117
  Its easy to get caught up in complaining. Get a curmudgeon license for that (www.grumpy-people.com)! Its not so easy to focus on whats great in life, whats beautiful and to what levels the human spirit can rise. It takes effort to find what you want to vote for, rather than only what you want to vote against. But if ...

• The Predictioneer’s Game: Using the Logic of Brazen Self-Interest to See and Shape the Future

  
  Through Your Body: — Authority: 131
  Bruce Bueno de Mesquita wants you to buy his book. He wants royalties and he wants fame. He wants the book to promote his consulting business. The text may well be full of self-promotional tall tales and calumny — unless the author calculated that the costs of dishonesty (potential intellectual disrepute) outweighed ...

• Media Incompetence Undermines How We Understand Foreign Policy

  
  An American Lion — Authority: 535
  The idea that you can say that President Obama’s recent trip to Asia was a failure (or a success) is laughable. Wait a few years—then tell me what it was. It was a good first effort to first engage and then, secondly, lay the groundwork for future arrangements. It doesn’t matter what President Obama did or ...

  seanax.com — Authority: 419
  The Seattle independent film scene may not exactly be the buzz of the festival circuit but it is making itself heard. This week, it echoed through the DVD new release rack, thanks to the simultaneous release of Lynn Shelton’s two recent films. But on a more personal (and much more self-serving) note, another ...

  An American Lion — Authority: 535
  This is enough to frustrate you and break your heart at the same time: Jonathan’s chain of command had deemed the village critical to accomplishing U.S. counterinsurgency objectives. Given the terrain, and the heavy concentration of insurgents in the Waygal Valley, a company- or battalion-size force was needed. ...

• Who Chooses the Poindexters?

  
  An American Lion — Authority: 535
  Kitty! The Government Accountability Office has been paying attention to who gets chosen to be a “monitor” at a company that runs afoul of the law. I have always regarded regulation of the markets as a necessary step towards common sense. It’s not capitalism if the markets run wild. A man has to know that ...

  An American Lion — Authority: 535
  William McKinley Far be it from me to criticize Congressman William McKinley of Ohio. That fellow is going places.
