Thu, 7 Sep 2006 14:00:00 EST New manual bans some interrogation techniques

The new Army field manual on interrogation now specifically prohibits a number of harsh techniques that came to light in the wake of Abu Ghraib. It bans torture and degrading treatments, including forcing prisoners to be naked. Interrogators cannot hood prisoners, place sacks over their heads or duct tape on their eyes, or threaten them with dogs. Water-boarding, a sort of simulated drowning, is also banned. The revised field manual also highlights three new interrogations methods, including specifically allowing interrogators to play good cop/bad cop, as well as pretending not to be an American interrogator at all.

Thu, 7 Sep 2006 14:00:00 EST Diet and exercise: how not to eat like a freshman

The "freshman 15" turns out to be a myth: A study published this summer in the Journal of American College Health found the average weight gain among first-year students to be more like 3 to 7 pounds. But there's no denying that dorm dining can be a nutritional minefield. Pizza-fueled late-night study sessions, sprawling cafeteria buffets, the addition of beer to the diet, and emotion-driven food choices during a huge life change can quickly take a toll on your health. But the damage is avoidable, says Daphne Oz, a junior at Princeton University who arrived as a freshman determined to shed the extra pounds she carried in high school and is now 30 pounds lighter than she was as a teenager. She has published her tips in The Dorm Room Diet (Newmarket Press, $16.95).
