...Anderson Cooper 360 is famous for withstanding hurricanes and war zones. Now Cooper, 39, has successfully taken on the challenge of memoir writing. Dispatches from the Edge will hit No. 1 on next week's New York Times best-seller list. And this fall he will add stints on CBS's 60 Minutes to his busy schedule. Cooper talked with TIME's Andrea Sachs about growing up with a famous mom, dealing with family tragedy and learning lessons from Katrina...
...After comparing Wada and Sughi's works, Japan's Cultural Affairs Agency decided to strip Wada of his award last week. So far, Wada has been less than repentant. "My style has been to borrow other artists' compositions and add some of my own ideas to them," he told the Yomiuri Shimbun the day before his award was retracted.

They still need to figure out how all those genetic variables relate to health and disease. Add the fact that food is full of hundreds of bioactive compounds, each of which varies depending on where plants are grown or animals are raised, and you've got quite a lot of information to puzzle out. In the end, you'll probably find out you still need...
...prominent chains as Chili's, his daylong "menu boot camps" have helped bring sophisticated marketing know-how to mom-and-pop diners and corner pubs. The objective for eateries big and small: a menu that grabs the customer's eye and steers it to high-profit dishes and moneymaking add-ons (like the side salad that is only $3.99 extra when you order the entrée). Rapp is so sure of his menu makeovers that he offers a money-back guarantee that his menu will raise profits--and in his 25 years in the business, he has yet to issue...
