2 Adjectives plus a noun

Today I heard a three-word phrase I would never have thought to construct from the English language.

In fact, I would have had to think very seriously before combining any two of the three: Whimsical. Finnish. Hip-hop.

They really mean it to, check out the "Don Johnson Big Band" http://www.theworld.org/?q=taxonomy_by_date/2/20070201

One of my favorite food journalists

I've previously recommended that everyone read "The Omnivore's Dilemna" by Michael Pollan.

He has a (very long) article in the NY Times today. It might require a registration, but it is definitely worth a read. He talks about 'nutritionism' and how it has supplanted talking about food.

From page 3: "Most nutritional science involves studying one nutrient at a time, an approach that even nutritionists who do it will tell you is deeply flawed. 'The problem with nutrient-by-nutrient nutrition science,' points out Marion Nestle, the New York University nutritionist, 'is that it takes the nutrient out of the context of food, the food out of the context of diet and the diet out of the context of lifestyle.'"
