  4. Film looks at the harm of 'Soul Food Junkies'

    You&rsquo;ve likely heard suggestions for making greens without the pork fat or &ldquo;fried&rdquo; chicken in the oven. All well and good, but the connection of &ldquo;soul food&rdquo; to African Americans goes way beyond editing recipes, and a new film asks viewers to think deeply about why they eat what they eat.

    Not that long ago, premiering a star-driven Sundance Film Festival movie on a video-on-demand channel was an admission of failure.

  7. New traditions take hold for State of the Union address

    WASHINGTON -- Some new traditions have taken hold amid the familiar rituals of a State of the Union address, and they seem to have a common goal: drawing some of the spotlight away from the president and to his audience.

  8. Ashes: They aren't just for Catholics (or male bishops)

    In Pittsburgh, where I was born and lived for most of my life, Ash Wednesday was a powerful reminder of just how Catholic that city was. On the first day of Lent, downtown streets and office buildings teemed with people with dusky foreheads, a kind of religious census by smudge.

  10. Gay marriage across the pond

    In voting to legalize same-sex marriage, Britain's House of Commons has proved that a tradition-conscious society can also adapt to social change. Enactment of the legislation, which is also expected to pass the House of Lords after some additional action in the Commons, would put to shame politicians here in Britain's most powerful former colony who continue to resist the legalization of civil marriage for gay and lesbian couples. But it also demonstrates that support for marriage equality is compatible with conservative views on other issues, a reality Republicans in the United States should ponder.
