...secret that people like shorthand names. Bartholomew almost always becomes Bart, Alexander gets squeezed down to Alex and Margaret - inexplicably - turns into Peggy. Coca-Cola had barely dented the national consciousness before it was compressed to a short and sweet Coke. Ditto the National Biscuit Co., which sounds like a place that manufactures dog chew toys - until you abbreviate it to the scrumptious Nabisco...
...connections are striking. You can't look at the black, red and white poster Resolutely Adhere to Execute the July 3rd and July 23rd Proclamations (artist unknown) without wondering if contemporary painter Wang Guangyi would add a Rolex or Coca-Cola logo to it.

Meanwhile, Thaksin, who has been sentenced in absentia to two years' imprisonment for conflict of interest, has hinted at a political comeback. Earlier this month from self-imposed exile, he divorced his wife in a sham process designed to protect assets that are in her name. Almost immediately after...
...Success The flavored-milk straws hit Australian shelves in late 2005 and are now sold in 69 countries; Russia and China will soon join the list. Baron is also looking at flavor straws for water and fruit juice. Ingredients have been trialed that make soda water taste like Coca-Cola, and an Indian company called recently to ask if it was possible to add spicy masala flavor to the beads for mixing with orange juice. "It tasted great," Baron says of the sample batch...
