...subject of his appetites the President is understandably touchy. He was asked last year about his love affair with McDonald's. "It's funny," said Clinton, who didn't look as if he thought it was funny at all. "I haven't eaten at McDonald's a single time since I've been President." To incredulous reporters the White House immediately emphasized that the operative word in the President's answer was eaten; he had in fact drunk coffee at McDonald's. Then it turned out the operative words were eaten at, for he'd eaten Big Macs...

"The attitude was to put a Band-Aid on it until the state left, and then it'd go right back to the way it was," she says.

The Pepsi 400 NASCAR race in Daytona Beach was canceled because of low visibility. The fires got within 50 miles of the Magic Kingdom, but Disney World was out of danger at week's end. More than 320,000 acres have burned since May 25. Last week the fires forced the closure of some 200 miles of I-95, Florida's main artery...

Most of the time, a little bit of heartburn is just that: a little bit of heartburn. And a little bit of prevention can keep it at bay. For starters, don't gulp down big meals that are high in fats, chocolate, coffee and alcohol. Small portions eaten over longer periods make it less likely your stomach will back up.
