...approaches his 60th year, something is changing in Murakami's heart. His status as a truly global writer is assured - over 100,000 copies of the English version of his most recent novel, After Dark, have been printed since its release in May - but with the world conquered, and precocious undergraduates from Sydney to San Francisco at his feet, the postmodernist master dismisses the foreign adulation with a tired hand, and finds himself returning to the world of his parents and his birth.

Earlier this year, another study of diet-soda drinkers came to a similar conclusion, this time about metabolic syndrome, the dangerous constellation of risk factors, such as obesity, high cholesterol and insulin resistance, that increases the likelihood of heart disease.

...Ruth's health had been precarious for months-in fact, she almost died the beginning of the year-so her death wasn't a surprise. But I realize now-in a way I never could have before-that a very important part of me has been taken away. My heart goes out in a new way to all those who have lost a spouse or other loved one, especially those who have loved ones serving in our military because I know now what they are going through.
