...world did you keep from gaining weight on your book jaunt? Portion control. If I went into a number of delis in a day, I would taste everything that was put in front of me, but I wouldn't finish it, because I didn't have enough room in me to finish it. And, you know, regular exercise, but nothing insane. I didn't go on a cleanse or a diet after, and maybe my cholesterol is 30,000 or whatever, but this is food I feel good eating as long as I don't eat too much...
...outfit like an old-school movie studio. The channel has always found young stars. Shia LaBeouf got his first break there, as did Hilary Duff and - way back in 1993 - Britney Spears. But only in the past few years has Disney mastered how to hang on to them, to keep them from getting away like LaBeouf, tiring of Disney like Duff or being churned into tabloid chum like Spears.

Grace Paley, a writer whom I adored, advised something else: “Keep a low overhead.” But that’s to worry about after graduation I guess...
...Sarkozy's trash-talking of Iran has in fact allowed Tehran to use him as a useful whipping boy, projecting toughness and defiance for a domestic audience, while at the same time keep lines of dialogue open with the U.S. And Tuesday's diplomatic slap was more symbolic than substantial. After all, France remains a permanent member of the U.N. Security Council, which gives it a seat at the main nuclear talks with Iran. (Those talks began in Geneva on Oct. 1; the Vienna session was a technical meeting on the terms of a processing deal.) Iran isn't refusing...
