No Free Lunch by Tom Raum
Food dominates congressional life as lobbyists and special interests provide meals in Capitol offices and committee rooms. Egg Producers plated 22600 eggs for omelets, ice cream makers served cones, and others handed out gifts like yogurt walnuts and raisins. Lawmakers used food to push campaigns while some faced backlash from critics over lavish lunches and tied policy aims. Senators and representatives from Alaska to Florida hosted tastings and press luncheons, drawing attention to policy stances on eggs, wheat, and food-stamp cuts.

Hypochondria And Eye Circles In Medical Letters
Hypochondria is not age related, say psychologists Costa and McCrae, in a discussion sparked by a letter about an elderly relative. The piece notes the stereotype harms older people and cites a 18 year study of 900 men showing neurotic individuals report more symptoms regardless of age. Dark circles under the eyes are often natural or sinus related, not vitamin deficiency. Extended wear contact lenses require periodic removal for cleaning, per the American Optometric Association, debunking the belief some can last a month without removal.
