...Under existing fda regulations, foods like jelly beans and soda can legitimately be labeled "healthy," since they're low in fat and cholesterol. No more, though: the agency has declared that the word can apply only to foods that are low in fat, sodium and cholesterol and contain minimum amounts of actual nutrients...
Women fondling themselves, or nudes smiling at the camera are all objectified and reduced to the simple expression of their bodies. The artists seal photos or reproductions in polyethlene bags and fill them with a clear gel, resembling the silicone used for breast augmentation. Others contain a milk-like fluid to conjure images of lactation. The juxtaposition of these different bags imply the early absorption and acceptance of male-dictated femininity by linking these sexual pictures with a universal image of childhood...
...medical aspect of the exhibition continues in "Pinnacles of Desire." The artists replace the gurnies with steel metal stands that contain video monitors, and the bags are now silicone breast implants. The emphasis shifts to a more contemporary issue--or rather the latest development of the female body: breast augmentation as the product of commercialized sex.

"It's a funny book," said one of them. "It's less...
That partner turns out to be well worth years of searching. Its apparent characteristics contain intriguing hints of an unexplored microcosmos, one that may be populated by particles far odder than any discovered to date. For the top quark is extraordinarily heavy. It is, to be exact, 200 times heavier than a proton and almost as hefty as an entire atom of gold. That an elementary particle can weigh so much, says University of Chicago physicist Henry Frisch, amounts to a "tantalizing clue." It suggests that the top is intricately entwined with the mysterious mechanism that is responsible for creating...
