...childishly adult snack.At the opposite end of the spectrum is the classically sweet cinnamon chai Pecan Sticky, which still offers a wonderfully complex eating experience. A more mature chai flavor provides a counterpoint to the childishly tactile delight of dipping one’s tongue into the sugary syrup that tops the cupcake. One bite of the simple-yet-refined chocolate and vanilla cupcakes will quickly send the eater back to the days of classroom birthday parties.But Kickass Cupcakes doesn’t limit its clientele to children, trendy tweesters—or, for that matter, humans. At an ideal...

...movie he wants if he spends less than $17 million. Youth, thanks to financial incentives for movies made in Europe and some scrappy filmmaking, fits into that category. Coppola set up a production office at a friend's Bucharest pharmaceutical company, auditioning actors and cinematographers amid stores of cough syrup and vitamins. He hired a 28-year-old director of photography who had just gotten out of film school to shoot in less expensive high-definition digital video. With the help of old friend George Lucas, Coppola equipped a Dodge Sprinter cargo van with all the camera gear he would...

...David Letterman, David Rockefeller and the owners of the Utah Jazz. It contributes to our obesity and illegal-immigration epidemics and to our water and energy shortages. It helps degrade rivers, deplete aquifers, eliminate grasslands, concentrate food-processing conglomerates and inundate our fast-food nation with high-fructose corn syrup. Our farm policy is supposed to save small farmers and small towns. Instead it fuels the expansion of industrial megafarms and the depopulation of rural America. It hurts Third World farmers, violates international trade deals and paralyzes our efforts to open foreign markets to the nonagricultural goods and services that...

...signature of Houston's flourishing indie hip-hop sound is the technique of slowing down a track to simulate the effects of the scene's trippy drug of choice, codeine-laced cough syrup. Among the nationally recognized stars of the genre was Big Moe, known for fusing spoken verse, singing and complex melodies. The University of Houston graduate--whose 2002 album, Purple World, reached No. 3 on Billboard's hip-hop charts--was 33 and apparently died of a heart attack...

...sophisticated and unassuming, Cardullo’s sells everything from the grossly excessive ($275 Beluga Malossol caviar) to the decidedly campy (blueberry lollipops with edible scorpion centers). I purchased crisp toast as a receptacle for the foie gras, spicy cranberry and wasabi jam, and balsamic-cherry syrup. I made a final stop at the budget-friendly Shalimar India Food & Spices Store in Central Square for crushed red chilies, coconut milk, bamboo skewers, and coriander (cilantro)—all for under $10. Back in Lowell House, I plugged in my faithful George Foreman Grill, cut the halloumi into wedges...
