...modest increases in mortality," says Sinha, a senior investigator at the National Cancer Institute's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, who is careful to emphasize that the institute is a research organization and does not make health recommendations. She suggests, however, that the fat content of and heavy iron concentration in red and processed meats, along with high-temperature cooking methods that can lead to the development of carcinogens, may increase the risk for disease and death. In contrast, the study found that higher white-meat consumption was associated with a lower risk of death. (Read "Meat: Making Global...
From its one-piece rear quarter panel to its independent rear-suspension, deep-dish steering wheel and comfortable interior, the new Camaro goes well beyond the old-fashioned "Detroit iron" of the 1960s and '70s. The new Camaro is powered by either by an old school, 426-hp V8 or an up-to-date direct-injection V6 engine that produces 29 m.p.g. and 304 HP in one package. During TIME's test drive, the Camaro showed that it blends the responsive feel and precise handling found in European road cars with raw American power, easily mastering the twisting, rural...

The People’s House pioneered the community dinner and trayless dining, and in true Trotsky form...
...During freshman week, the House puts on a Field Day in which the three classes compete against each other in epic contests of water balloon toss, pie eating, and tug of war, just to name a few. During the year HoCo and the Masters put on entertaining events like Iron Chef, Family Feud, pumpkin carving, and Assassins. The only notable black mark is the weak stein clubs, especially compared to Dunster’s epic happy hours: attendance is lower, alcohol is poorer in quality, and revelry is virtually non-existent...
