Yesss! The diet for your wildest dreams
Article Abstract:
The System S diet programme, devised by Anne de Looy, the UK's first professor of dietetics, and Sally Ann Voak, slimming editor for the Sun newspaper, is based on the view that most people eat too much fat and not enough carbohydrate. The two women believe that the best way to boost your complex carbohydrate intake is by eating more sucrose, a simple carbohydrate. In this way, the desire to eat fatty food is reduced. The diet programme is very unusual in that it actually encourages people to eat more sugary desserts and to drink sugary drinks.

Look into my eyes and feel the power of chi
Article Abstract:
Chi Kung energy healing has been practised for the past 4,500 years in China, where there are more than 300 different styles. Their aim is to boost and regulate a person's yin and yang energy, thus allowing the body to become its own healer. This form of healing is based on the view that good health and long life will result from unblocking energy channels. It can be used to treat conditions such as multiple sclerosis, migraine, arthritis and asthma, and can also be used as a preventative measure.

Life for lorry drive who ended Celine's journey of optimism
Article Abstract:
A jury has unanimously found lorry driver Stuart Morgan guilty of the murder of French student Celine Figard in Dec 1995. She accepted a lift from him at a motorway service station, and was murdered soon afterwards. He carried her body in his lorry over the Christmas period, and then dumped it in a lay-by in Worcestershire. He claimed that she made sexual approaches to her, and that they had intercourse by mutual consent. He denied murder.
