oops! Sorry i just caught this mistake on my graph -- for the very first graph, the axis is supposed to be "Students", because it's the number of students, not Hours.
Sorry for the mistake :S
Results!
Question 1: Belly dance is closer to club dancing forms than its Middle Eastern roots.
Question 2: Belly dance is audience oriented.
Question 4. Historically Belly dance was seen as 'the art of fallen women' and 'the practice of prostitutes for European clientele.' This is a misconception.
Question 5: Belly dance is an embodiment of feminism
Question 6: You would encourage your daughter, if she belly danced, to perform publicly.
Question 3: Is Belly dance closer to Hollywood interpretation or tribal tradition?

...this week's New York Times Magazine: The Food Issue. It includes Michael Pollan's "Favorite Food Rules," which Peter mentioned earlier this week, but for me the real pay-off was a lovely, lovely story, "Against Meat," by Jonathan Safran Foer, about how having children can make you confront your paradoxes and your dishonesty--and change your habits: "Changing what we eat and letting tastes fade from memory create a kind of cultural loss, a forgetting. But perhaps this kind of forgetfulness is worth accepting — even worth cultivating (forgetting, too, can be cultivated). To remember my values, I need to lose certain tastes and find other handles for the memories that they once helped me carry."
