...usually know when we eat animal or butterfat. But we often don't when we consume palm and coconut oils, used to fry chips and often found in margarine, chocolates, whipped cream and toppings, even nondairy creamers...
Here's an anomaly: a comedy about smart people. Joel and Ethan Coen, having made a film whose title (O Brother, Where Art Thou?) was taken from a Preston Sturges movie, now launch a full, fond invasion of Sturges territory. In the tradition of The Lady Eve and The Palm Beach Story, this is a farce with chic repartee, devious twists and a cheerfully sardonic take on the human need for greed.

Its eagerly awaited follow-up, the Treo 600, keeps up the family name with a built-in camera, a memory-card slot and a much brighter screen. Inside, amenities include an updated Palm OS, 32-MB of onboard memory and a processor four times as fast as the Treo 300's. Of course, you'll still have to contend with the cramped little keyboard. Expect the phone to sell for around $550 in mid-October; Sprint PCS will be the first to offer service. GSM versions...
