2008-09-30 16:06:00 From Scientific American: The obesity epidemic has led to increased scientific interest in how the brain controls human feeding behavior. Why do we get hungry? What biological mechanisms tell us what to eat and when to stop eating? It's long been assumed that two neurobiological
Silver with a taste of gold.
2008-08-20 15:05:00 After winning a silver medal from the 3 meters spring board at the 2004 Olympics in Athenes, Alexandre Despaties has repeated the exploit yesterday in Beijing.The athlete from Laval, Quebec, was simply exceptionnal. After missing four months this year because of a broken foot and a back injury, Despaties was not a sure bet for a podium finish. The level of competition was high as Dimitri Sautin from Russia, He Chong and Qin Kai from China were in great shape.Despaties did not commit any major mistake during the final. He gave his best and finished in second place with a total of 536.65 points. Only He Chong was better. In fact, Chong was impressive, immaculate, untouchable.When he was asked to comment his performance, Alexandre Despaties said that this silver medal had a taste of gold after this horrible year 2008 that kept him away from competition for too long.The situation was so uncertain for him that even a great magazine like Sports Illustrated doubted him and excluded the mul...

Pennsylvania Taste of Elegance Chef Competition
2008-08-12 23:00:00 I was invited to compete in this year's Pennsylvania Taste of Elegance Competition, but as life would so have it, I have too many things happening on the day of competition to make it feasible for me to attend and I also am not working full-time in a food service establishment - cooking for 9 a day doesn't count. I don't want anyone else in the Lehigh Valley area to miss it though, so I thought I'd share a few details.The deadline for entries has passed, but anyone can attend the event held on August 25, 2008 at Northampton Community College. The winner of this year's competition, sponsored by the Pennsylvania Pork Producers Council and Cargill Meat Solutions, featuring Sysco?s White Marble Farms® pork products, will move on to the National Pork Board?s Taste of Elegance in Spring, 2009.Details on last year's winning chefs and their dishes can be found HERE, and everything you need to know about attending this delicious event is as follows:DATE: Monday, August 25, 2008 LOCATIO...
Bush Legacy: a BAD TASTE in GOP's Mouth
2008-08-03 17:52:00 Isn't it ironic that President Bush, once clearly a darling of conservatives and Republicans alike, may come to be, in the words of Ann McFeatters in the Boston Herald, "loathed by most of them."The problem is that Bush isn't at all what people thought they were voting for. The "Compassionate Conservative" label was the epitome of sound-bite marketing, for openers. Show me any even moderately compassionate initiative Bush championed, and on review you'll find it was driven by pressure from outside, not his own leadership. And the notion you'd vote for him because you'd like to have a beer with him? Nevermind that he doesn't drink anymore: Who really thought they'd like to have a beer with him?Answer: people who'd like to have a beer with anybody.Republicans = small government?When you look at his term of office it seems likely that he was, in essence, a figurehead. Sadly I see President Bush primarily as a puppet of the likes of Cheney & Rumsfeld, who realized Rove had ...

A taste of the Mediterranean from Malta

Yes, I can taste the irony. When it comes to Housing Bailouts, Barack Obam
2008-05-21 08:06:00 Choosing a president shouldn't be a one-issue process. Look where that got us with Bush. I cast my support for Obama because of a list of issues on which he is right, in my book, and McCain is wrong. On housing, both McCain and Obama are wrong, Obama being even more wrong than McCain - who actually I'm not sure today which way the wind is blowing. On housing, the Democratic party is wrong to want to bail out speculators, and the Republican party is wrong to want to bail out lenders and banks. Pretty much the only politicians right on housing are the Libertarian-leaning Republicans, like the few I've posted here the past few days. And Ron Paul of course.My prediction? Bush will indeed veto this bill, in his most brilliant act as president. But then a new bill will come up, which bails out the banks and lenders he favors more, and failed flippers less, and he'll end up signing that one.Here's Obama's latest position:Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., called on Bush to "abandon h...
