Stanley Tucci Cast in 'Hunger Games'
2011-05-10 02:51:00 I haven't written much about the Hunger Games casting, but I have been watching with bated breath. It's the only thing keeping me from losing it over the imminent end of the Harry Potter franchise. I've been somewhat OK with the casting so far. I like Jennifer Lawrence. I think the kid from The Kids Are All Right is too short and looks nothing like how I pictured Peeta, my love. I'm happy that Elizabeth Banks will be playing Effie. Now, it appears, Stanley Tucci will be playing Caesar Flickerman, AKA the ageless MC of the Hunger Games. I have two reactions to this: 1) I'm glad he's not playing Cinna and just reprising his role from The Devil Wears Prada,...

THE END - The 30th September Song (poetry series for hunger)
2009-09-30 07:00:00 (Artwork by Marcin Bondarowicz) I think today is the end of all things conventional, Whatever had been predictable yesterday, is no more. Forks and spoons are too rusted to use, Jutting out of us like some perished nightmare. Dining room tables are being used for makeshift mausoleums, (Leave the dead, don’t waste precious energy.) Electricity went out this morning, water this afternoon. It reaches everywhere; the world reeks of a decomposing. There’s a deafening silence ticking down like a giant clock; Nothing can be heard, save the monstrous, shrieking echo of silence That swims over our heads like crop-dusters spitting flesh. We are so goddamn frightened! Is this the end of the world? Has our greed and apathy finally made its way back to us? Have our closed hands and open mouths at last climbed inside our minds? Where are all the loud children skipping home from school? What day is this? What time is it? What has happened? At night there will be fireflies and the moon t...

World Hunger Summit Leaders Dine on Cockroach Ragout and Yakitori of Rat, w
2008-07-09 17:53:00 File this under major irony of 2008, but this past Sunday, the world leaders who represent all the countries concerned with the global food crisis, "sat down to an 18-course gastronomic extravaganza at a G8 summit in Japan, which is focusing on the food crisis."Did any of the diners ponder their own hypocrisy for a nanosecond as their ivory chopsticks ascended to their well-fed jowls? Jowls quivering with such delicacies as milk-fed lamb, sea urchin gonads (known as "uni" in Japan), as well as the usual sturgeon roe and sparkling wine from the Champagne region of France (ho hum)?One wonders what an appropriate dinner menu for such an illustrious gathering might be. Anyone care to add to this list?

Hunger Hormone Ghrelin has antidepressant anti-anxiety effect
2008-06-16 12:56:00 The BBC today reported some interesting research from Nature Neuroscience which suggests an important link between Ghrelin (a hormone produced in the stomach to tell the brain to produce feelings of hunger) and depression and anxiety. It is quite hard to tell from the report whether having higher or lower doses of this hormone might help: "Our findings in mice suggest that chronic stress causes Ghrelin levels to go up, and that behaviours associated with depression and anxiety decrease when Ghrelin levels rise," This quote by Dr Zigman would seem to suggest that being hungry makes us calmer. Problem is, a lot of anxious people actually comfort eat and other certainly use foods like chocolate and ice cream to calm themselves down in a crisis. Like the antidepressant Celexa, a side effect of raised Ghrelin levels would be somewhat liable to lead to wight gain, as it induces hunger. Maybe that is something that could be remedied before any potential product came onto the...

First BO buys into Gore’s stupid theory of anthropogenic gobal warming, AFP: “We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times” There is a name for not having enough food to eat. It is called hunger. Yet in this land of plentiful food and highly productive famers, BO proposes national hunger as policy. Further, taking a page from John Kerry, BO suggests that our American lifestyle needs to pass some sort Kerry like global test: “[A]nd then just expect that other countries are going to say Ok. Millionaires who live in mansions should not be telling the American voter that has to turn down his thermostat and have his children go hungry. This nation has plenty of food and oil reserves.
