Posted on June 8, 2009 by Breanna
Let s say you have a passion for salads in different varieties. Because of this, you developed the skill of preparing them by yourself. So every time you crave for salad, you check the ingredients you have at home. You commit to memory the ingredients you need to buy; but while doing this, your partner asks you to buy a thing or two since you re going to the supermarket anyway.

Russian Cuisine
Posted on April 19, 2009 by Theodore
Let them eat cake. So said Marie Antoinette, Queen of France, upon being told that the peasants were rioting in the streets because they had no bread. It has been cited for over two centuries as an indictment of the arrogance of the aristocracy but in reality, the young queen may simply not have understood why, lacking bread, a person would not turn to cake. Such was the separation between the tables of the privileged and those of the poor. Nowhere was that separation so evident, though, than it was in Russia of the last century.

When Russian cuisine first moved beyond its own borders, it was the dishes of the royal table that...

Posted on March 15, 2009 by Stan
Pizza is an oven-baked flat usually circular bread, covered with tomato sauce and cheese with optional toppings. All the basic ingredients of a healthy nutritional plan are used in this world-famous culinary product.

As early as the 3rd century BC, Marcus Porcius Cato, the first historian of Rome, mentions that people in that area used to eat a flat round dough dressed with olive oil, herbs, cheese and honey. Even in the city of Pompeii, archaeologists have excavated shops that resemble modern pizzerias. Since the tomato was not yet known in Europe, the ingredients of the ancient...
Ocular Lymphoma A Major Indicator Of Brain Involvement In Patients With Non-hodgkin S Lymphoma
Posted on February 8, 2009 by Dixie
cular lymphoma, also referred to as intraocular large cell lymphoma, is a subtype of Non-Hodgkin s Lymphoma that primarily affects the central nervous system. The incidence of ocular lymphoma among the global population has known a pronounced decrease since 1960, although paradoxically it has slightly increased in the last few years. Although there isn t enough evidence to support this theory, medical scientists believe that the recently increased incidence of the disease is mainly caused by prolonged treatments with immuno-suppressing drugs. However, in the absence of conclusive findings, this supposition has been disregarded by most oncologists. Ocular lymphoma has the highest incidence among the male gender, and predominantly affects people with ages over 50. The categories considered to present the highest risk of developing...
