Significantly, they eat little or no hard, or "saturated," fat.* They also eat little of the foods that contain much cholesterol, such as egg yolks, shellfish and organ meats. On the basis of early research, scientists assumed that the cholesterol found in mushy, atheromatous deposits in diseased coronary arteries came from the cholesterol consumed in foodstuffs. They had to abandon this simplistic view as soon as they realized that the human body manufactures cholesterol from several raw materials, notably the hard animal fats...
Miss Vosgerchian has taught at Harvard since 1959, when she took over the Basic Piano program. For the last three years she has taught first-year harmony in Music 51. In her office, sitting among dulcimers, stringless lutes, a harpsichord, and a chamber organ, she is revealed also as the Curator of Ancient Instruments.

Two years ago, three Venetian music lovers wrote to the Vatican weekly Osservatore della Domenica, suggesting that Bach, even though he was a Lutheran, ought to be canonized as a saint...
...sentences and remaining silent when he had nothing to add. Now, in the compositions of his 50s and 60s, Bach became more than ever a teacher. He produced collection after collection summing up the accumulated skill of a lifetime: the Goldberg Variations for harpsichord, the Catechism Preludes for organ, the unfinished The Art of Fugue...
