...Italians looked far better against Romania than France did against the Netherlands. That wasn't difficult, and their urgency was apparent. "Presto, presto, ragazzi," pleaded one fan behind me. Playing Luca Toni and Alessandro Del Piero up front in their more traditional 4-4-2, the Azzurri pressed the attack with direct balls and along the wings in the first half, but the Romanians never panicked, maintaining their compact, fallback defense.

Five flights below, outside the courthouse, a throng of assembled spectators erupted in euphoria. Minutes later, the man known as The R. strutted out the courthouse, flanked by his beefy bodyguards and men who appeared to be his music label representatives.

But that time may at last be ending. The national obesity epidemic did not happen in a vacuum. It occurred in an era in which fashion models have got thinner and thinner, the tolerance for even a little flab has grown lower and lower, and the rates of eating disorders like anorexia have climbed higher and higher. In that environment, children and adolescents trying...
