...then one day, just before a military victory and just after settling the question of whether daughters could inherit if there were no sons (yes), God matter-of-factly instructs Moses: "Ascend these heights of Abarim...and view the land of Canaan which I am giving the Israelites as their holding." When Moses has seen the Promised Land, God says, he will perish. Moses immediately acquiesces: "Let the Lord, source of the breath of all flesh, appoint someone [else] over the community." His later recollection in Deuteronomy, however, is "I pleaded with the Lord at that time, saying...
...Egypt producers Penney Finkelman Cox and Sandra Rabins and composer Hans Zimmer. He readily admits that The Prince of Egypt has a special resonance for him; one of his animators has even drawn a cartoon of Katzenberg as Moses confronting Eisner as Rameses. But it's not just a matter of personal vindication. Animation is such a key part of the DreamWorks business plan that many in the industry believe a failure by The Prince of Egypt would be a bad omen for the future of the company.

These, like the doings of sumo wrestlers and high-class prostitutes, gave a rich subject matter to 18th century graphic artists like Suzuki Harunobu, Kitagawa Utamaro and the theater caricaturist Toshusai Sharaku, whose image of the actor Otani Oniji III playing a samurai's manservant, all red-rimmed eyes and stylish snarl, is a deliciously succinct expression of fictive bloody-mindedness.

However, it is possible to ingest too much iron no matter what your genetic background. An overdose of just a few dozen iron pills can make adults very sick and is enough to kill toddlers. So keep your supplements out of kids' reach. And if you suspect iron poisoning, call your local poison-control center or head for the emergency room...
...with their new books. The apple confit may have been a disaster--"I don't know what happened," Vongerichten says sorrowfully--but other recipes from Jean-Georges, like the seared tuna with Szechuan peppercorns, prove remarkably simple, if lacking a four-star polish. Ducasse: Flavors of France is another matter. Stunningly produced and poetically written, it is also more intimidating: heavy on costly truffles and types of fish not available in the U.S. For even the more ambitious amateurs, perhaps the best approach is to splash out on a visit to these chefs' restaurants and leave their cookbooks where they...
