...told you to, you may not need to take any supplements. Consuming five servings of fruits and vegetables in the course of a day is often a better way to meet your daily vitamin requirements. It's almost impossible to overdose on such foods unless you're eating truly gargantuan portions. Besides, fruits and vegetables seem to have other, hidden health benefits...

...make it human and warm," explains Sandra Naddaff, Mather House master for seven years. Colorful furniture, like a pair of camel-back blue couches and a massive painting of the Taj Mahal at sunset by a Harvard grad, as well as other artwork courtesy of the Fogg, gives the gargantuan rooms a classical character. In addition to seven-and-a-half baths, and four large bedrooms, an atrium connecting the dining room to the living room houses large trees and exotic plants.

...There are some other potential novelties of the shortened primary season that you should be on the lookout for. If George W. can seal up a GOP nod by early March, he'll be able to devote his gargantuan war chest to the general election. In years past, even virtually locked-in candidates have spent their campaign chests in intra-party races. Further, if both party nominations are resolved early, we'll probably be in for the spectacle of four months of campaign coverage devoted primarily to the Trump-Buchanan race for the Reform party nomination, a dialogue that could...
