POPSThe Topless Battle Rages On.. So whats wrong with this country.. its fine for some overweight dude with B cups to walk around but not a woman? The reason you have men going nuts over the site of breasts is because we (the USA) market market them for profit. By making it illegal just makes matters worse.. If it were legal like in Europe men would stop starring at breasts the way they do because they would be used to seeing them.. Now mind you if that were to happen it would also burn lots of women that use them for power in many situations too.. But I think all in all it would be a positive thing. And yes, I nude sunbathe so I see them all the time and no its not a sexual thing -- as I said you just get used to them like anything else!

POPSObese Alabama State Employees Will Pay Alabama's State Employees' Insurance Board has approved a plan to charge state workers starting in January if they don't have free health screenings, according to the AP. Should the screenings turn up serious blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose or weight problems the employees have a year to turn things around or start paying $25 for insurance that's otherwise free. Alabama already charges workers who smoke but obesity is an even bigger problem for the state, which is ranked second in terms of national obesity rates. To be fair, the state will offer employees access to a wellness program to help them. But you have to wonder - is an extra bill of $25 a month really going to get people to change their bad habits and/or start paying attention to their health? It'll be interesting to find out.

POPSColossal squid was 'lethargic blob' So they caught one squid, and now they think all squid are the same. Giant Squid don't travel as well on the surface. If it was getting shorter, I wonder how big she was before she started to brood?.

POPSHalf of overweight US adults are heart-healthy We have this idea that fat=unhealthy, unhealthy=fat, thin=healthy, and healthy=thin. However, more and more research seems to indicate that this simply isn't true. It's not about your size or your shape, it's about your fitness. Can you do what you need to do on a daily basis with ease? Can you climb a flight of stairs or run a block for the bus without getting winded? Can you play tag with a couple of six-year-olds without passing out from overexertion? Can you carry your groceries home without needing to set them down several times? Get fit. Get strong. Get active. And tell anyone who still believes in "shaming the fatties into losing weight" to go jump in a lake.

POPSDrug tries to offset 10,000 years of evolution Gene therapies, expected some time between 2015 and 2020, promise to correct this genetic problem caused by nature, but many obese people do not want to wait. They are hoping that Nastech’s new nasal spray can provide a solution now. Within 20 to 35 minutes after taking a whiff, this new drug moves quickly through the nasal lining and into the bloodstream, sending a message to the brain that our tummy is full. So far the drug has had no negative side effects. PYY is undergoing clinical trials now, and is expected to be in drug stores by 2009 or 2010. Obesity is the 2nd leading cause of preventable death in America, so this drug offers a great chance for more people to improve their health and get ready to enjoy our “magical future”.

POPS86 Percent Of Americans Could Be Overweight Or Obese By 2030 “The health care costs attributable to obesity and overweight are expected to more than double every decade. This would account for 15 to 17 percent of total health care costs spent,” Wang says. “Due to the assumptions we made and the limitations of the available data, these figures are likely an underestimation of the true financial impact.”
