Clooney delivers message on Darfur
Messenger of Peace is one of his most difficult yet, especially because he wasn't exactly allowed to deliver his message.

Easy Come, Easy Go
Everyone wants to be healthy. Everyone wants to look and feel great. But most of us are too lazy to find alternatives for our carbohydrate-laden, swimming-in-ghee meals, or find the time to visit the gym and actually sweat our way to being fit. Wouldnt it be convenient to just magically shrink into that designer dress or grow muscles to rival Arnold Schwarzeneggers? The appeal of taking a little pill, powder or potion that magically does just that with no effort whatsoever on our part is devilishly tempting. Add to that the fact that these physique-altering drugs are sold dirt cheap and can be bought by a 12-year-old with no raised eyebrows or any questioning whatsoever, and the temptation becomes almost impossible to resist. Supplements are anything taken to either make up for a deficiency or strengthen the body.
