Are residents of a Chicago ghetto correct to feel ‘bitter’ over Sen. Obama abandoning them ?
According to the San Francisco Chronicle:
September 14, 2008
“He worked right here in this broke-ass office, and really knew how to get people together – but look at this place today,” said Cheryl Johnson, 47, as she sat beneath a roof that is so dilapidated that rain pours in. “Everyone here is still poor, we’ve got people with skin rashes and cancer from contamination around us.
“It sure would be nice to see Obama here today, but he hasn’t been back to visit us since he left,” she said, letting bitterness seep into her voice. “I will vote for him, but that’s how it is. He learned what he learned, and left.”

He is a “user” and these needy people were just a stepping stone to him. They should feel bitter and abandoned.It seems that “change” is not permanent.

Master Cleanse
Description
The Master Cleanse claims to be a way to cleanse the body of and remove the cravings associated with drugs, alcohol, tobacco, eating, “Coffee, tea, and various hot drinks.” The cleanse involves drinking only a concoction made from fresh lemons, grade B maple syrup and cayenne pepper. No solid food is eaten for the entire cleanse. According to proponents it is recommended to be on the cleanse for a minimum of ten days, but some people stay on the cleanse for longer periods of time, even as long as 45 days to 90 days when weight-loss is not achieved.
Health claims
Stanley Burroughs and other authors say that The Master Cleanse will eliminate toxins (pesticides, hormones, prescription drugs, chemical fertilizers, heavy metals) and congestion that have built up in the body. For people in good health, the body is designed to eliminate normal everyday toxins from itself through the lungs, kidneys, liver, and other eliminator organs. Supporters of the Master Cleanse have credited it with helping them lose weight, increase energy, and even alleviate some chronic diseases and increase sexual stamina, but there is no empirical peer-reviewed evidence that it achieves anything other than weight loss.
Nutritionist Jane Clark points to a lack of essential nutrients in this program, citing a deficiency of protein, vitamins, and minerals in the regimen although dietary deficiencies in protein may not lead to the individual showing signs of protein deficiency if it is followed only for a short time. As a result of these deficiencies, including far fewer calories than the recommended amount for health and optimum functioning, individuals on the diet may experience headaches and a variety of other symptoms in the short term. Dr. Joel Fuhrman attributes these effects to detoxification, which he says passes after the toxins are eliminated. Many authors assert the benefits of fasting are related to its lack of nutrients, particularly macronutrients. It could be dangerous if followed in the long term.
Clark also believes that the saltwater “flush” may remove both harmful and beneficial bacteria from the body. A no-food diet may cause the gut to stop passing food, resulting in constipation, or may make the consumption of food immediately after the cleanse painful. Some people might actually have watery bowel movements. This is actually fine but if it persists for more than 2 days or more, it is important to consult a medical professional. People with intestinal conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome may experience discomfort while on the cleanse. Some people who have followed the cleanse feel that a 14-day regimen of the program will eliminate that condition altogether[reference needed].
Used for weight loss
Many proponents of the cleanse do not recommend it solely for weight loss, instead mentioning its purported detoxifying properties. When following the Master Cleanse, people will certainly lose weight.
Some people in the entertainment industry have used the Lemonade Diet for rapid weight loss, leading members of the public to follow their example and use what has been described as an extreme fad diet, or as a crash diet. In 2006, the cleanse received media attention as a result of being embraced by some celebrities. The singer/actress Beyonc did it for 14 days and lost 22 lb (10 kg) for her role in the 2006 movie Dreamgirls. Other celebrities include rapper Trina who did this liquid diet for 13 days and Howard Stern’s cohost Robin Quivers claims to have lost 73 lb using the Master Cleanse. Similarly, Jared Leto says he lost the weight he gained to play ‘Mark David Chapman’ (he gained 62 lb) all from the master cleanse.
Medical authorities say that those who try the Master Cleanse to lose weight will gain it back in time. Beyonc denounced using the cleanse as a weight-loss program, stating, “I wouldn’t recommend it if someone wasn’t doing a movie … there are other ways to lose weight.” Other doctors have stated lack of key nutrients among reasons why they don’t recommend detox diets considering them unnecessary and potentially dangerous.

Promised Land [CD-ROM] Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge… |
