Finkelstein declined to comment on his response to the case Dershowitz laid out in the book, but said his bone of contention is more scholarly—he speculates that the Harvard Law School (HLS) professor didn’t do his own research...
...Dunkin’ Donuts favorites are present and accounted for—from cinnamon to powdered sugar to chocolate glazed—and all with the same reliable taste you remember from high school student council meetings. Though the dough is bone-dry, the sugars, glazes and frostings that coat each donut choice make the bready interior seem irrelevant.

...claims being made in behalf of the 5,000-year-old soybean are true, it may be the closest thing on earth to a magic bean. Not only is soy a low-fat food, but it's also believed to fight cancer, lower cholesterol, relieve hot flashes, boost bone density, brighten skin and even soften beards.

Unfortunately, with many brokers, the menu is dominated by that funky alphabet soup. A shares carry a sales charge, typically 4.5% to 5.75%, that you pay your broker when you buy. B shares charge nothing when you buy but nick...
