Charlie parkers yardbird. And oscar winnerturnedbroadway star Lupita Nyongo. Here and now. If that new years weightloss resolution has fallen by the wayside, perhaps a way to get rid of those extra pounds is by detoxing. Joining us today is dr. Ian smith to share some of the clean, lean, fatburning tips from his new book, the shred power cleanse the twoweek plan. Welcome back. Good to be back, as always. I have to be honest with you.

Indiana which has a photo i. D. Law thats been in place since 2008, thats the law that the Supreme Court upheld. According to the Census Bureau in the 2012 election, black voters outvoted white voters by more than 10 percentage point.
