...children decide what to serve, with guidance from the pros about how to make a meal well balanced and healthy. Kris Buda recently organized an event in Cleveland for 65 children and their guests. "We decided on chicken surprise," she says, "which allowed each of the kids to bread it the way they wanted. They could choose pretzels or cornflakes or potato chips." (Nutritional compromises are sometimes made in the interest of the larger lesson.) Depending on location, the week could include a visit to a farm to see ingredients at the source. Week Three concentrates on etiquette and table...
Just try to avoid calcium these days. The miracle mineral of the moment, it is being added to everything from baking flour to bread, from orange juice to Tab. Meanwhile, such familiar products as milk and yogurt, as well as Tums and Total cereal, are being touted for their high calcium content.

Those who gag on the tablets, which are huge gullet pluggers, can even try getting their mineral boost in a novel...
...basic idea of RG theory is to study the variation in the importance of certain properties at a smaller or larger scale. For example, think of a large pile of tuna sandwiches.

She will slip in the occasional sick joke amid the scenes of frustration and bewilderment. Loaves of Sunbeam bread repeatedly make appearances, for example, echoing her father's eventual demise by being run over by a truck from that same company. Gradually, as Bechdel adds so many layers of history and nuance to her father's personality he changes from Ogre to tragic casualty of self-denial. Conflating...
...damage done by Terazzas's company on that November morning cannot be undone. ?I was an admirer of America,? says Khaliq, the morgue doctor. ?When those bodies were brought here, it turned upside down my image of that country and its people.? Of the Marine with whom he shared bread, Thabet says: ?He spoke to me politely, and I respect him for that.? But reciprocating the friendly gestures would be asking too much. ?As long as they come as bearing guns, we will be reminded of what their colleagues did to our friends and family,? says Thabet. ?We will...
