...first and worst of all those new habits is almost surely diet. In a study released in July, scientists traced the eating habits of 3,000 Chinese women, ranging in age from 25 to 64. Half of the group ate a "meat sweet" diet of Western cuisine, rich in red meat, shrimp, fish, candy, desserts, bread and milk. The others stuck to more traditional Asian fare of tofu, vegetables, sprouts, beans, fish and soy milk. Postmenopausal women in the meat-sweet group showed a 60% greater risk of developing the most common kind of breast cancer...
...that can never be recaptured - here the physical act takes his characters to a darker and more frightening place. "I think sexuality is worth exploring because it's the ultimate performance," says Lee, who is hanging out in a luxury hotel suite a few hours before the film's red-carpet Hong Kong premiere on Sept. 22.

In fact, this is not even close to my greatest baseball disappointment...
...each new depredation, grateful for the occasional win. And totally shocked when, somehow, the Metsies suddenly got good and won the World Series in 1969. There was another flash in the 1980s, though the 1986 World Series victory seemed more attributable to the rapacious karma of the vanquished Red Sox. Several hopeful seasons followed, but eventually the Mets fell back into their hammock of despond, a team that rarely tested the limits of mediocrity. My love persisted, unquenched; but the allegiance didn't demand much. It is difficult to dash the absence of hope...
