...turns out that - surprise! - cleaner wrasses don't actually like to munch on dead flesh and parasites. They much prefer the slimy mucus that coats healthy fish skin, which is rich in carbohydrates. So in nature, the wrasses occasionally cheat and take a nip of their client's body. When they work alone, the wrasses strike a balance between cleaning and cheating so as not to lose their client's business. But wrasses also work in pairs. In these situations, explains Redouan Bshary of the Université de Neuchâtel in Switzerland - one of the authors...
...decade ago in Miami it was the Cuban exile lobby, which saw in Eliancito a way to stick it to Fidel Castro. (One local judge, who ruled that Elián's Miami relatives should have custody of him, turned out to be a client of a powerful exile political broker pushing for Elián to remain in the U.S.) Today in Rio it's the politically connected lawyer relatives of Sean's stepfather - and if you think Brazil's admittedly impressive social progress of late means that powerful families can no longer manipulate the courts, especially when poking...

You don't need to be a client of the spa to use the Spatisserie, but you will be given seating preference if you are, so get a treatment - but nothing too vigorous, of course. We recommend the superlative Vaishaly facial ($155). The Dorchester is the only place that offers it outside of Vaishaly's impossible-to-book clinic. See thedorchester.com...
...Near Global has invested around $16.5 million in its London site. Wrottesley expects a quick return. Some revenues come from fees paid by client retailers. But all retailers, clients or not, also pay for clicks to their sites, and Near Global also earns a commission on all items sold. Advertisements will generate additional income. Little wonder that Near Global is talking to a potential partner about doing virtual versions of major U.S. cities, starting with New York. A virtual Tokyo is also high on the to-do list. Soon you might be able to enjoy a shopping spree that takes...
