These questions can help guide the process. Is this business your career or a lottery ticket?...
Pollan is a gardener, a cook and an uncommonly graceful explainer of natural science; this is the book he was born to write. He walks us through four meals that delineate the battlefield of dinner. A McDonald’s meal in his car at 60mph leads into the disastrous monoculture of corn, which contains less energy than the fuel required to produce it: “It’s too bad we can’t simply drink the petroleum directly....

While Clinton steeled himself and set to work, Bob Dole was beset by doubts. In early 1995, Woodward writes, Dole wasn’t sure he was going to run at all.

His wife, Elizabeth, and his campaign aides went ballistic: either he declared or didn’t; he couldn’t afford to indulge his legislative trick of playing for time....
Vincent Shay had been looking for humpback whales when he set off from California’s Avila Beach on September 6.

More photos are available to see here....
This has led to a wide disparity in the vaccination rates between rural and urban populations, often contributing to vaccination rates being lower in states that have more rural locales than states with large metropolitan areas.

Most assumed the post was a shot at Harden because that’s how it came off. But Lawson refuted that in a conversation with the Denver Post. “It was just the Cowboys,” Lawson explained. “I wasn’t looking at James Harden.” MORE: Nuggets mascot in hot water | Regular season odds | Waiters calls ’nonsense’ on Wall But Lawson had to be aware that Harden’s likeness was on the photo, and, as a Redskins fan, the semblance shouldn’t have been lost on him....
“Gareth Bale,” Wright-Phillips said, referring to the Real Madrid star who the forward played with early in their careers at Southampton. “I saw a similar attitude. Don’t get me wrong, because you guys like to twist things. I’m not saying they’re the same player, or he’s going to have the same career as (Bale), but they both have a mentality where they know what they’re good at and they’re not afraid when they step out on the field....

Vadym Prystaiko, Ukraine’s ambassador to the U.K. and a former foreign affairs minister, told Newsweek at the Ukrainian Embassy in London that the evolution of Western military aid to include more advanced weapons is inevitable and vital to avoiding a frozen conflict. “Let’s bring it all up in a coordinated effort, and let’s see what this can do,” Prystaiko—who has also served as head of Ukraine’s mission to NATO and ambassador to Canada—said about foreign aid....
On Thursday, State Department spokesperson Morgan Ortagus announced sanctions against 20 individuals because they “violate Iraqi sovereignty and exploit Iraq’s economy to funnel money to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Qods Force (IRGC-QF).” Those blacklisted were said to be involved in transferring “lethal aid” from the elite Iranian expeditionary unit to Iraqi militias hostile to the U.S. military presence in the country. That same day, senior Justice Department officials targeted another Washington adversary already hit with trade restrictions....
After the 5-1 thrashing at the hands of arch-rivals Barcelona in the first El Clasico of the season last weekend, Madrid welcomed Valladolid to the Bernabeu with the hopes of changing their fortunes. For most of the match, Madrid were below-par and were trolled for it on Twitter. However, much-hyped Vinicius Jr. came off the bench to rescue the Spanish giants and spare them the blushes. Sergio Ramos then sealed the game with Madrid’s 2nd goal, scoring from the spot in the 88th minute....
