...Educated and from a well-off northern family, Tram volunteered for battlefield duty on the southern front at the tender age of 24, just after graduating from medical school. She spent three and a half years operating a clandestine field clinic for communist soldiers in the jungles of Quang Ngai, in what was then South Vietnam, and began keeping a diary shortly after arrival. "Operated on one case of appendicitis with inadequate anesthesia," reads her first entry, dated April 8, 1968. "I had only a few meager vials of Novocain to give the soldier, but he never groaned once...
...pensive and tortured as Mel Gibson’s in the 1991 film adaptation of Hamlet. Simon J. Williams ’09 is perhaps the most versatile among the cast as Titus‘s brother Marcus: alternately passionate and level-headed in his grief, and touchingly tender toward his mangled niece. As Tamora, Soler is every inch the vengeful hussy. Rapists Demetrius and Chiron (Jason R. Vartikar-McCullough ’11 and Daniel R. Pecci ’09) are chillingly rambunctious and buffoonish in their cruelty.

Marbling is largely genetic and, as an indicator of quality, a myth; it signals juiciness but not flavor. The leaner, leggy Galician Blonde was just as tender as the fattier German. Zaldúa claims that the sum qualities of an individual animal - feed, upbringing, genetics - are more important than breed or regional origin. The best beef is raised free-range on grass, with whole cereal and hay over the winter. Zaldúa says that...
...certainly not best. Beef has to be hung to lose excess water, develop complex flavor, and break down tough fibers, but for how long? Experts disagree, sometimes violently. With all due respect to Zaldúa, two weeks is not enough for full-on flavor. Nor does youth yield tenderness. After encountering a steak at Etxebarri in Axpe from an old retired dairy cow as tender as a veal calf and infinitely more flavorful, I was also ready to challenge the received wisdom that animals older than 30 months are too tough to eat. In fact, age in both respects...
...CEO” or “founder” written on your resume can’t hurt when applying to business school or Morgan Stanley, most of these go-getters insist that only sincere passion pushed them into the cold world of business at such a tender...
