Want to be the perfect holiday host or guest? Follow these tips on etiquette and entertaining, and your dinner companions are sure to be thankful. 
Picture
If you are the host…

1. Plan to provide a traditional party, then be creative with side dishes.

2. Whenever anyone offers to help or bring a dish, say, “Yes, thank you!”

3. Use hollowed bread loaves for charming serving containers for cheeses, dips, olives, chips and small sandwiches.

4. Once the table settings and centerpiece are in place, sit in each chair to make sure each guest will feel comfortable.

5. Include favorite kids’ foods, especially those they can eat neatly with their fingers.

6. Provide at least one low-calorie dish and a vegetarian option. Then serve a sinful dessert.

7. Completely clear the table of all dishes from previous courses before serving dessert.

8. Fill the sink with soapy water so cutlery and small dishes can soak clean as the guests are finishing.

9. Make it easy for guests who help you clean up to help you recycle. Place bins in the kitchen labeled “glass,” “cans” and “trash.”

10. Keep club soda nearby to clean spots or stains on the tablecloth or clothing.

If you are a guest…

1. Arrive no earlier than the time the host has announced and no later than half an hour after the time.

2. Plan to stay about an hour after dinner unless travel plans or sleepy children necessitate leaving earlier.

3. Bring a gift and write a note of thanks afterward.

4. Offer to help set up for dinner and to clean afterward.

5. Notify the host of any special dietary needs — if you are a vegetarian, diabetic or allergic to common foods. You can tell the host how to prepare a dish you can eat, or even better, offer to bring that dish yourself.

6. If you’re going to a potluck Thanksgiving, bring a serving dish with your contribution. Remember, the best potluck dishes are those that need minimal preparation in the host’s kitchen, can be served at room temperature and require only a fork to eat.

Headlines warn us about hazardous chemicals in ordinary products. How much do we have to worry? 
Picture
1. "Clamshell" takeout food containers

Or any food packaging labeled #6 in the recycling symbol*

What It Contains
Polystyrene (Styrofoam).

Concerns
May leach styrene (a possible endocrine disrupter and human carcinogen) into food, and into groundwater from landfills.

What You Should Do
Avoid food that has come into contact with polystyrene.

*usually located on the bottom of the container

Picture
2. Reusable "sport" water bottles

Look for plastics labeled #7 in the recycling symbol. Also check metal-lined containers (such as those used for some baby formulas and cocoa powder), five-gallon water bottles, and most plastic baby bottles

What They Contain
Polycarbonate, which may contain bisphenol A.

Concerns
Bisphenol A is a suspected hormone disrupter and has been found to stimulate prostate cancer cells.

What You Should Do
Replace plastic baby bottles with glass, and water bottles with stainless steel or those made of high-density polyethylene — labeled #2 in the recycling symbol. Avoid putting plastics into the microwave or dishwasher. To be extra careful, use ceramic or glass containers instead.

Plastics labeled #1, #2, #4 and #5 are safer than those labeled #3, #6 and #7. 

Picture
3. Water and soft-drink bottles when refilled

Look for plastics labeled #1 in the recycling symbol
(typically)

What They Contain
Polyethylene terephthalate.

Concerns
The bottles are considered safe but are intended for single use only; they should not be reused because they may have picked up bacteria from the first use.

What You Should Do
Use only once (and then, of course, recycle!). Even if you wash them, you cannot be sure they have been properly sanitized. 

Picture
4. Backyard furniture, shower curtains, toys

Look for plastics labeled #3 in the recycling symbol

What They Contain
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which often contains softeners called phthalates.

Concerns
PVC releases toxic chemicals during its manufacture. Phthalates, for their part, can damage the liver, kidneys and reproductive systems of animals. Suspected endocrine disrupters, they mimic hormones and may interfere with children's growth and development, especially if infants chew or suck on vinyl products.

What You Should Do
Avoid PVC products and soft plastic toys, which young children may put in their mouth. Look for plastics labeled #1, #2, #4 or #5, which are not endocrine disrupters. 

Picture
5. Non-stick cookware (when overheated)

Perfluorinated chemicals (PFC). (Some new non-stick cookware does not contain PFC.)

Concerns
Non-stick pans may give off fumes containing TFE, a suspected carcinogen, when they get hotter than 650°F. How hot is that? Olive oil, for example, starts smoking at 410°F, well below that level.

What You Should Do
Just to be safe, don't allow empty pans to smolder on a hot burner.

Picture
6. Worn and pitted pots and pans

What They May Contain
Aluminum.

Concerns
Aluminum has been associated with Alzheimer's disease. However, no definite link has been proven.

What You Should Do
Consider getting rid of older pots and pans, which leach the most aluminum into your food. Leafy vegetables and acidic foods, such as tomatoes, absorb the most. Anodized aluminum pots, with a hard non-stick surface, are a better choice.

Feisty Philippine Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago has "overwhelmingly" won a seat in the highly powerful International Criminal Court, according to the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) Tuesday. 

DFA said Santiago is the first woman from an Asian developing state to join as a judge in the Netherlands-based international court.

ICC is an "independent, permanent court that tries persons accused of the most serious crimes of international concern, namely genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes," according to the court's website.

Santiago reportedly topped the poll's first round, effectively gaining a seat with 79 votes out of 104 valid votes, which DFA said was "an indication of the strong support from States Parties."

DFA noted that to be elected, candidates must receive two-thirds majority of the total number of votes cast, mostly States Parties voting.

"She was the first to be elected out of 18 candidates vying for six seats on the Court.  For the first round of voting, she bested candidates from every region," DFA said in a statement.

"This is the message that we emphasized in the campaign.  We are pleased that the international community has listened to us.  Indeed, it is a new day for the Philippines, a day of pride for our country and a day of honor, knowing that this is a tremendous responsibility and mandate placed upon our compatriot," DFA Secretary Albert del Rosario said.

Santiago recently went on a four-month campaign to get States Parties' support.

In October, Santiago said she would be resigning from the Senate should she win a seat in the ICC.

“I’ll have to resign [as senator]. Isn’t that good news for my enemies? I would have to live in The Hague. I will look like a European and speak like a European and I will be as snooty as a European when I come back," she reportedly said.
