US Eliminates Senior Terrorist Leader The U.S. military has killed a senior al-Qaeda-aligned leader in Syria in a drone strike, says CENTCOM.

Al-Makki was riding a motorcycle when the precision strike hit, ending his long-standing role in the region's jihadist networks, according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

These and other perceptions can change our metabolism. In a landmark study, one group received a milkshake labeled as "indulgent" with a claim of 620 calories, while the other group received a milkshake labeled as "sensible" with a claim of 140 calories. The actual milkshake was the same for everyone, but the amount of the hunger hormone released was different depending on the label. Research like this is opening a new front in weight loss science.
