...Migration, Policy and Society at Oxford University. "Integration means building common ground rules on civility, and this happens on the local level. Cohesion is all about everyday interactions, in the supermarket or on the playground." Successful, long-lasting integration takes place in community clubs and children's play groups, bake sales and block parties. Programs don't have to be big or expensive; Kotler says Education Bradford runs its twinning scheme "on a shoestring." "This isn't woolly liberal multiculturalism," she says. "Yes, it's about respecting difference, but it's also about discovering what it means to live together...
...international kitchen cadre, including Japanese apprentices eager to learn his secrets. Ernesto started to hone his skills when he was 12. Of course he needs help turning out 2,000 pizzas a day, but I shamelessly wait by the furnace to scoop up the magic one made and baked by the master himself. It takes only 30 seconds to bake to blistered perfection in the woodburning oven, and he expertly spins and lifts the pizza with the long wooden paddle.

Long a staple of roadside diners and harried family cooks with no time to bake a lasagna, breakfast for dinner appeals to our cravings for soft, warm comfort foods that aren't heavy but still feel like a real meal...
...offensive publicity stunts to express political opposition to affirmative action and similar policies (“Whites-Only Rule at B.U. Is Booed,” news, Nov. 22) is nothing new. In 2004, an “affirmative action bake sale” held at Columbia demonstrated a similarly disturbing trend of parody and ignorance, rather than informed debate, about important issues related to race relations in higher education. While events such as these do, of course, provoke dialogue (at Columbia, it contributed to the founding of our Office of Multicultural Affairs), they also trivialize matters that are deserving...
