...This is going to be my fifth time playing against Holy Cross, so there’s definitely a level of familiarity there,” Mazza said. “I know their defense rather well after this amount of time...
...wait--isn't salt bad for you? Yes and no. "It is the huge amount of sodium in processed food that's a problem," says Eve Felder, a dean at the Culinary Institute of America. Artisanal salts are meant to be used sparingly atop prepared food, so chances are those few extra sprinkles won't do you in.

...Stevenson, a professor of psychology at England's University of Southampton, involved about 300 children in two age groups: 3-year-olds and 8- and 9-year-olds. Over three one-week periods, the children were randomly assigned to consume one of three fruit drinks daily: one contained the amount of dye and sodium benzoate typically found in a British child's diet, a second had a lower concentration of additives, and a third was additive-free. The children spent a week drinking each of the three mixtures, which looked and tasted alike. During each seven-day period, teachers, parents...
Stevenson found that children in both age groups were significantly more hyperactive when drinking the beverage with higher levels of additives. Three-year-olds had a bigger response than the older kids did to the drink with the lower dose of additives, which had about the same amount of food coloring as in two 2-oz. (57 g) bags of candy. But even within each age group, some children responded strongly and others not at all. Stevenson's team is looking at how genetic differences may explain the range of sensitivity. One of his colleagues believes that the additives...

Schools complain of hovering "helicopter parents," a label that some moms and dads wear proudly. The amount of time candidates spend with their young kids is even an issue in the primaries. For the enlightened 21st century mom and dad, quality time has met quantity time. Never mind the bleach: the idea of having kids care for themselves, separate from parents, rings faintly abusive in itself...
