Grainge's plans for his new position remain somewhat of a mystery. His approach emphasizes artist relations at a time when other companies would rather talk about formulating an effective digital-distribution strategy to combat music piracy. It's not that Grainge doesn't care about this issue - indeed, he wants the U.S. to become tougher on piracy. He says, however, that there is "no platinum-tipped magic bullet" to solve the problem. One thing that will help: forming a coalition of music, film and publishing companies to lobby both Congress and Internet service providers to enact tougher sanctions against...
...Rather than relying on such underestimates, the Produce Safety Project study used CDC data showing that there are 76 million new cases of foodborne illness in the U.S. each year. Study author Robert Scharff, a professor at Ohio State University and a former FDA economist, then tried to account for the overall cost of illness, factoring in every expense, from onetime costs for prescription medication to losses in "quality of life" - a dollars-and-cents picture of exactly how miserable that bout with a bad falafel made you.

The moral gravity of life under a totalitarian régime refashions Floria Tosca (Michelle Trainor) as a heroine of freedom in the face of oppression, rather than the intemperate diva she is frequently made out to be in other productions. Scarpia is no longer merely cruel; he is now a Fascist and a racist, and therefore triply loathsome...
...Miami, Dubai and, word has it, London. But each restaurant's primary burger would be easily recognizable to Warren G. Harding. One has a potato roll, the other a sesame bun, and both have custom grinds from meat guru Pat LaFrieda, but really, they're examples of perfection rather than creation. (To be fair, both have great specialty products - the Shack a remarkable breaded portobello burger, and Bill's a double-patty onion-and-butter Fat Cat on an English muffin. But those aren't really core products, as they say in the fast-food business...
