...recent studies suggest, however, that certain foods may increase the risk of cancer. Publishing in the July issue of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, researchers analyzed data from the Shanghai Breast Cancer Study and found that postmenopausal Asian women who had adopted more Western-style diets - high in red meat, bread, desserts and candy - had a two times greater risk of breast cancer than peers who stuck with traditional Asian diets consisting of vegetables, soy and fish. A separate study of 50,000 postmenopausal women, published in the current British Journal of Cancer, found that women who ate a quarter...
...Seoul, patching up strained relations with Japan's key trading partners. But foreign-policy coups were soon overshadowed by a perception that Abe's domestic agenda was lacking. While he spoke of boosting Japan's role abroad and revising the country's pacifist constitution, the public was focused on bread-and-butter economic issues. "When Abe talks about the constitution, people think, 'What about my salary?'" says the DPJ's Yamaguchi.

Since this new arrival seems to eat constantly, I thought eating a loaf of bread and all the bagels might be endearing, but no. Chewing up the breast pump didn't go over well either. My only hope is to lay low for the next few days and then flatter the alpha male with my usual enthusiasm...
...just freshly downed an enormous and rather eclectic meal of grilled lamb, unfrozen peas, two small peanut butter sandwiches on walnut bread, four cheese puffs, two squares of hazelnut-studded dark chocolate, one glass of red wine, and royal mint jelly. Tonight’s dinner menu, alarming enough as a solitary incident, is actually one in a long string of elaborate and unlikely meals I’ve indulged in these last three weeks: despite the occasional visit to the library, I’ve done nothing this summer in New York—the city...
