...message, Lawless spelled it out: "Japan must start doing things for itself that it has historically expected the U.S. to do on its behalf. We have to bring the substance of the alliance up to the level it should have achieved a long time ago." Shigeru Ishiba, a Diet member, former defense minister and well-known hawk, agrees. Lawless, says Ishiba, is "genuinely frustrated at what he sees as Japan's slow pace of change. And I can't say I blame him. I am frustrated...

Servants would take banquet scraps home, and farm laborers would search the fields for bits of vegetables and small game, with all of it ending up in the flat-bottomed pans that are still used to make paella today. These peasant origins are the reason...
...tack to the very end. I attribute this in large measure to her daily completion of two crossword puzzles in record time. Weil ought to step out of the meditation labyrinth he was pictured in and try his hand at a crossword. Jean Falls Milton, Canada Weil's "wellness diet" is right on target. This article will inform and alert people to the impact that their diet has on their health. But his recommendation to "strictly avoid all products made with partially hydrogenated oils of any kind" is almost impossible to follow. Nearly all snack foods, especially packaged cakes...
