Until his wandering eye settles upon the astonishingly beautiful, much younger Consuela Castillo (Penelope Cruz, whose performance is entrancingly eager yet reserved). They enter upon an affair, which is only slightly marred by his jealousy, which is partly ex post facto (he takes an unusual interest in her previous lovers) and partly contemporary (who's that guy you're having dinner with tonight?) and by the fact that, despite age and cultural differences, she truly loves him. He prefers to concentrate on mentoring her and, speaking frankly, on her breasts, which he not unreasonably regards as the most gorgeous...
...make matters worse, the same climatic changes that caused the abundance of herpes and plankton on the Atlantic coast - and which contributed to an explosion of jellyfish in Mediterranean waters have also caused a proliferation of Vibrio splendidus bacterium. The effects of that bacteria left younger oysters both more vulnerable to herpes infection, and less capable of battling the virus as it killed them. Scientists fear that as waters heat up thanks to global warming oysters may regularly face such conditions in the future, disrupting France's annual oyster production of 120,000 tons - the largest in Europe and fourth...

...reason for that delay in onset of cardiovascular disease could be that women are relatively iron-deficient compared to men - especially younger women, those in their late teens and early 20s - because of menstruation. Iron plays a very important part in the reactions in our cells that produce damaging free radicals, which glom onto cell membranes and DNA, and may translate into aging the cell. In fact, in our diets, red meat is the main source of iron, and lack of iron is probably one major reason that being vegetarian is healthy for you. There was a very good study...
