This disparity in extreme behavior disappeared between current vegetarians and lifelong meat eaters in the older cohort, ages 19 to 23, with about 15% in each group reporting such weight-control tactics. But among former vegetarians, that number jumped to 27%. The findings suggest that age matters when it comes to vegetarianism: teenage vegetarians as well as young experimenters - those who try it but abandon it - may be at higher risk for other eating disorders compared with their peers. But by young adulthood, many still-practicing vegetarians have presumably chosen it as a lifestyle rather than a dieting ploy...

"I think you can be trained to exhibit more self-control," says Dr. Ari Brown, a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics in Austin, Texas. "But it's harder to do, the older you get. As pediatricians, we have the chance to help parents create a lifestyle early on, so you don't have to go through behavior modification or a weight loss program to learn healthier eating habits.

...squad still comprises unpaid amateurs (even in South Africa, they are not drawing match fees but a $50 per diem provided by the generosity of the ICC), many of whom look quite a bit older than their listed age. The Afghan National Cricket Academy in Kabul consists of four battered training nets and one bowling machine, a piece of equipment used by serious players to practice shots. When the power cuts out, which happens frequently in the Afghan capital, the machine can't be operated. These are the wretched resources used by the Afghans to compete against nations that have...
