...tossed aside, and a group of school-age boys now play soccer in its midst; on the same street, a cluster of teenage girls stand, giggling together under a street lamp - which, miraculously, is working. By day, the affluent Karada district bustles with life. Old storefronts - their glass once blown out by explosions and now replaced - display grandiose chandeliers for sale, dripping in crystal...
...thing, given the fundamentals of the two teams, but Turkey, like its great rival Greece in 2004, is having a magical ride in Euro2008.

How do you effectively control another person's eating behavior? How do you motivate someone--especially a young, impulsive, pleasure-driven someone--to make smart food choices, to get up off the couch, to turn off the television? And how do you accomplish that without making that young person feel...
