...From there, the tour plunges straight into the heart of the old city, where the centuries-old Shor bazaar has changed little from the days when it was thronged with Silk Road traders. In the narrow, twisting alleyways of the bird market, drab mud-brick shops burst with the vibrant plumage of parakeets and fighting quails, while the air is filled with the bright chatter of songbirds, the favored pets of Kabul residents. Handcrafted bamboo and wire cages, festooned with glass beads, dangle from every doorway, and the fragrance of cardamom-laced green tea beckons passersby into tiny chai shops...
...Some people who knew her said, "God, you look like your mother." And some people who knew her said, "no, you don't." It's very hard. My brother thinks I do. There is one photograph in particular where she is looking straight at the camera and she's got shoulder-length hair and a fringe. She's looking very earnest.

While the U.S. has no laws against gulping milk straight from cows, the government's stance on controlling the sale of raw milk is far murkier. The Food and Drug Administration, which recently determined that it's safe to drink the milk of cloned cows, takes a tougher stand on unprocessed milk. It banned interstate sales of raw milk 20 years ago but left it up to individual states to decide what to do about commerce within their borders. The result is a hodgepodge of conflicting rules and loopholes big enough...
...don’t bother mirroring pages, and feel free to reuse photographs. (Designer Michael Kors looks even better on page 26 than on page one.) Proofreading is something better left to staid, stodgy publications like The New York Times; don’t waist your time. Capitalization schemes straight out of German and spellings like “semister” and “meat a freshman” will only augment your magazine’s “ineffable allure...
