On The Cover:

Los Angeles street artist Shepard Fairey, who created the now iconic
Obama poster on the cover and is known for his global guerrilla art
campaign featuring his work on street signs and buildings, will receive
his first museum survey exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary
Art/Boston from Feb. 6-Aug.16. The show, "Shepard Fairey: Supply and
Demand," will cover more than 20 years of his career, ranging from the
Obey Giant stencil to screen prints of political revolutionaries and rock
stars to recent mixed-media works and a new mural commissioned for
the ICA show. Additionally, Fairey will create public art works at sites
around Boston. Poster: ©2008 Shepard Fairey/ObeyGiant.com .

Dear
Bar , re-
cently read
an article that
claimed that
diet soft drinks
can contribute to weight gain. Is
there any truth to that? Sam.

nswer: Dear Sam, you
may be referring to the ar-
ticle entitled, "The Truth
About Diet Soda," by David
Zinczenko, long-time editor of
Men's Health magazine that was
featured on a major web portal.

The article posits 3 main argu-
ments against what the author
sees as the widespread, excessive
consumption of diet soft drinks:
(1) That "emerging research"
suggests that the consump-
tion of sweet-tasting bever-
ages of any kind increases
)., .--',,,,
the overall appetite for
s' ) sweet-tasting food items;
(2) That diet soda, gen-
erally, is 100% nutri-
tion-free, and, at the
very least, consuming 5
or more cans/bottles of
diet soda a day inter-
feres with the intake of
more healthful beverages
like water or tea;
(3) That there remains some
health concerns about the
artificial sweetener aspartame
(marketed as Equal, Nutra-
Sweet, and Canderel), which is
found in some 6,000 consumer
food and beverage items
worldwide.

Next time: I'll discuss each of
these arguments in more detail.
