The Rhythm of Life
Are you a morning person or a night person? Sometimes our bodies dictate when we can and cannot perform, despite what our minds want to do. We look at the body’s natural rhythms when it comes eating, sleeping, and sex. Also, what do the new campaign filings reveal about the presidential candidates? And, the voliatile intersection between the Iraq war, Washington politics, and Turkey's past and present. Finally: tea kettles get high tech.

Trouble in Turkey

This comes at a particularly troubled time between the two nations. NPR's Ivan Watson and Roland Flamini, correspondent for Congressional Quarterly, discuss the current situation.
