...DIED. PHIL SOKOLOF, 82, who spent millions of his own money to wage war against fat; in Omaha, Nebraska. After a heart attack at age 46, the self-made millionaire, who suffered from high cholesterol, began buying full-page newspaper ads with such headlines as: "McDonald's, Your Hamburgers Have Too Much Fat!" His work led some fast-food chains, including McDonald's, to begin frying potatoes in vegetable oil rather than beef tallow and other companies to stop using highly saturated tropical oils in packaged snacks.

Suzanne Renna—said that placing the Bureau under the administration of UHS would render it unable to provide effective non-clinical counseling by effectively integrating it into the University’s clinical mental health system...
...Crown Prince of Denmark (played by undeniably handsome unknown Luke Mably) has a Prince William-esque reputation for carousing and—evil-of-evils—drag racing. These habits—in this supposedly modern fairy tale—are all too often splashed across the front page of Denmark’s tabloids, earning him continual, serene, slaps on the wrist by his regal parents...
