...Madison Avenue to nosh on a mozzarella tasting menu. Obika looks like a take-out sushi joint, but it's an Italian restaurant chain focused on cheese, specifically its handmade Mozzarella di Bufala Campana. The porcelain white (the yellow mozzarella in your supermarket was made from cow's milk, not buffalo's), slightly briny balls are paired with grilled vegetables and prosciutto. If you just want a sandwich to go, the menu also includes paninis. Look for Obiká's original location in Rome, plus outposts in Milan, Turin and London; the website has maps and directions. 590 Madison Avenue...

"Of concern, however, is the accompanying rise in cases of rickets" - a bone-softening disease usually attributable to malnutrition that can lead to fractures and bowed legs. To ensure that breast-fed babies get the vitamin D they need, she advises pregnant women to discuss with their obstetrician...
...Format fatigue only helped Obama, because the town-hall-style debate doesn't feel dangerous anymore. No one is going to be caught checking his watch. No one will take the stage without memorizing the price of a gallon of milk and a gallon of gas. And because the campaigns ultimately set the rules, no audience member will be allowed to ask a question that hasn't been screened by some higher authority...
