34、ort，missed it entirelyThe scariest part of that story was that Transportation Security Administration officials told reporters that this type of incident was “not uncommon.”Now another Texas airport，Dallas-Fort Worth，is proving the pointThis week, a high·level TSA source told the local NBC affi

35、liate that An undercover TSA agent was able to get through security at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport with a handgun during testing of the enhanced-imaging body scanners.”The TSA insider who blew the whistle on the test also said that none of the TSA agents who failed to spot the gun on the

36、 scanned image were disciplinedThe source said the agents continue to work the body scanners todayThis is not confidence-inspiringIf TSA screeners cant even stop guns getting through security, why are they taking away our bottled water? Incidents like this only lend incentives to TSA critics who say

37、 the whole airport security apparatus is all enormous waste of time and moneyThe TSA's attitude towards the reporting of these sorts of messes isnt helpful，eitherThey only provided NBC with a brief statement claiming that they dont reveal the results of secret testing for security reasons and ar

39、 without greater transparency about the results of secret testingInstead of leaking hints to the press that failure rates have decreased since the last public reports，the TSA should back up its whispering with actual dataIf it wont，some enterprising congressional committee should order it. “Trust us

To lose weight you simply had to practise the reverse of home economicsspend more than yo

44、u earned. Unfortunately for many, but perhaps not surprisingly, accounts, it turns out that people are rather more complicated than bank accounts. To stay a healthy weight，you need a hormone called leptin to work properly. It sends “Im full”messages from the fat cells up to the brain, where they go,

45、 among other places, to the same pleasure centers that respond to drugs like cocaineObese people produce plenty of leptin，but the brain doesnt seem to respond to it properly. Last year researchers at the Oregon Research Institute scanned the brains of overweight people and found their reward circuit

Instead of storing excess energy as fat, brownfat tissue burned it

50、off to keep you warm-at least in miceBrown fat fell out of favor because researchers couldnt find much in humans but now, thanks to the New England journal of Medicine，it's back in fashionThe idea is to expose people to cold temperaturesThey then make more brown fat and their weight drops57The l
