...picky eating in fancy locales. Or in any locale.Now that you’re out in the world, it is time to swallow your pride, your hesitations, and that olive. Be cultured, and if you can’t, pretend. Everyone has different tastes, but certain foods in particular require some discipline to get used to.DARK CHOCOLATEEveryone likes milk chocolate. It is sweet, creamy, and often shaped like bunnies. But we all know that the Easter Bunny isn’t a real animal, and we should all know that the milk chocolate he brings to children isn?...
...world can be counter-productive, summoning up the ghosts of a racist colonialism among those it is supposed to help. In fact, after their blood-drenched last century, many Europeans are just plain skeptical about force as a policy instrument in any circumstances. Unsurprisingly, those attitudes are held with particular devotion in Germany.

...moral obligation is not so easily avoided. The old rationalization that “party leaders know best” is both paternalistic and wrong: The presidential nominee of each party should be the choice of all its members, not of the political elites with vested interests in a particular party structure. Currently, Clinton holds a lead of 231 Democratic superdelegates to Obama’s 145, a vestige of the days before primary campaigning began in earnest, when she was the presumptive choice of the party establishment and the seemingly unbeatable frontrunner. Months later, Obama has won more contests...
