Just in time for the holidays comes a fashion trend that can double as gift wrap: satin ribbons. Ultrafeminine sashes, already considered hip by 4-year-old girls, are becoming must-haves for women 10 times that age. Tom Ford for Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche, Dolce & Gabbana and Prada are among the fashion powers touting the look in recent collections, tying ribbons onto blouses, dresses and shoes. Popular downmarket retailer Hennes & Mauritz (H&M) and other mainstream mall outlets have also appropriated the ribbon theme for everything from belts to tank tops.

...burrito comes quickly and disappears deliciously. But 25 ounces, at least for me, does not a meal make.

My taste buds are satisfied, but my stomach is not. Granted, I am a big eater, but I did not expect to have to order two meals. Now the 40-ounce burrito, which I passed on earlier, does not look so daunting. I discuss...

...handwriting analysis, envelope technology and the schedule of U.S. mail pickups in and around Princeton, N.J. He can tell you all about cross-contamination, the common misspellings of penicillin and the "pharmaceutical fold" used by chemists for centuries to dispense medicines--and by person or persons unknown to wrap scrawled terror messages around a few billion spores of surprisingly pure anthrax...
