...disagrees with specific farming practices, like veal production methods, the proper response is to use persuasion and publicity to convince others to share that position and abstain from the offending product. If enough agree, the market will force a modification of the unwanted behavior. Question 3 chooses the unfair and undemocratic route of coercive government meddling and destructive litigation, while it hides its true agenda with deceptively innocuous language. The state House and Senate have already rejected this measure by votes of 2 to 150, and 0 to 34. The public needs to repudiate this extremist initiative by a similarly...
...glance, gussied up with enough faux-everything kitsch to make one wish for a machete to clear a path to a table. However, once one is seated, delights appear, marred only occasionally by a lax waiter or an overdone duck. There are sublimely puffy lump-crabmeat cakes and tender veal chops with morels. Not to be missed: profiteroles filled with foie gras. The kitchen also serves an original version of pot-au-feu for which the succulently moist, tarragon- scented chicken arrives with leeks and angel-hair pasta, not in the traditional bowl with soup but on a plate mantled...

To get through his difficult final hours in the White House, Richard Nixon requested a breakfast more substantial than his usual wheat germ and coffee. Haller rustled up corned-beef hash with a poached...
...action begins in 1909 in the rooms of one of the Deans at Cambridge University. A group of young men are gathered to engage in pretentious debate over the relative worth of music, conversation, and a veal cutlet, It's a nice start but it also turns out to be one of the very few moments of humor in the script. The rest of this solemn movie follows the next five years of Maurice's life as he transforms himself from a callow undergraduate into a cultivated city stock-broker, all the while guarding his secret from the Dean...
