Good morning. The news of the world may be grim running to grimmer, but still we make time to cook, hoping that the practice can bring a balm to wounded souls.Take as an example Melissa Clark's recipe for a roasted carrot salad with arugula and pomegranate (above). Make it tonight while listening to Laura Marling, while enjoying a glass of wine,

while listening to Laura Marling, while enjoying a glass of wine,
and while we're at it, I can recommend what clothes you should wear, what time of day to begin, and what brands of utensils to use, if you would like to reproduce the full soul-wound-balming-salad effect.

But nutritionists and ordinary Americans also differ in an obvious but important way: Nutritionists know a lot more about food.

“She knows that we have a problem with pizza,” said Mr. Tolia, a hedge fund manager for Bengal Capital Trading. “There’s a lot of dough, and the sauce is not as tangy and present as on some other pizzas that I’ve had. But this is really about the crust, and that’s really original.”Of the price, Mr. Tolia said: “I’m not the right person to ask. I’m a sucker for these kinds of things.”

Next up was “The 10-Minute Facelift with Dr. Julius Few,” a room-clearing demonstration in which Few sliced holes in a volunteer’s face. After explaining that his patient was under a local anesthetic, he pushed a threaded needle through his volunteer’s left cheekbone to her lower jaw, then reversed course while tugging tight.Those who remained groaned and gasped. The doctor was unfazed.“I do think Gwyneth and I are alike, in that we think the best things in life are simplest,” he said, dabbing up the wounds. “This procedure starts at $3,500 and lasts two to three years.” Few’s quick addendum: Blindness is a potential side effect.

Pissing away money on ZipCars and rentals doesn't sound like it was pissing away money IMO.

Objectively, alt-side parking rules are a civic good: The street cleaners sweep up the curbside detritus that is a fact of life in a city of eight million people, and without an ordinance to temporarily assure that parked cars are out of the way, the accumulated filth would be unimaginable
this is bullshit. no other country on earth does this, and lots of them are cleaner than new york. cars in the way isn't the problem.

DC also has its fair share of people who have household incomes in that range and commute 2 hours but that's because they want the big house in the country, not because we have taken completely dumbass stances on density and transit from the 1950s
