...Spring 1962. Eighty pages, 16 in color, in the oversize, art-book format. The mustard colored cover has an embossed playing card of Bluebeard and one of his maids, the teaser to a five-page feature inside. Ray Bradbury contributed a lovely short fiction, a sort of "Gift of the Magi," in bed. Sixteen pages are devoted to a Guy de Maupassant story, Madame Tellier's Brothel, in "a new uncensored translation" and illustrated with 12 monograph sketches by Degas...
...this way, the Cheesecake Factory is the closest thing in the restaurant business to democracy in action.

The subcommittee of the Committee on House Life (CHL) charged with examining dining hall hours and interhouse restrictions decided last week to recommend to the Council of Masters that students be allowed to order bagged meals up until...
...hottest potential applications for Schultz's invention is fighting burns from sulfur mustard, which was Saddam Hussein's poison gas of choice. (He deployed it against Iraq's Kurds and stockpiled it for use on coalition troops.) The U.S. Army has asked Schultz and his company, Quick-Med Technologies of Gainesville, Fla., to develop a dressing that could be used to treat sulfur-mustard blisters. Meanwhile, the Department of Defense has ordered up $1 million worth of research into a mustard-gas ointment. "It's all the same technology," says Schultz. "It's just adapted for different uses...
