...First, caveat emptor: You get very little "Hate" for your money. The 64-page annual contains a mere eight pages of a Buddy story, and a pretty forgettable one at that. The remaining selections are more like "Peter's Grab-Bagge:" reprinted odds and ends, some of which can be found for free on the Web. The biggest of these are three spot-illustrated text pieces about Alan Keyes, The Hollies, and the Experience Music Project. They're OK, but I like comics...
...estimated $200 million to institutions in Israel and the Jewish diaspora. In 1995, according to a memo authored by one of Rich's lawyers and obtained by TIME, he offered to aid the peace process by helping finance a private investment bank with Jordan and the Palestinians--with the caveat that he would need to move freely throughout the region. Israel launched a "confidential initiative" to get the U.S. off Rich's back, according to the memo.

...Another caveat is that most classes here test knowledge through essays. Even in biology or chemistry, one will be confronted with short-answer explanations or molecules that must be synthesized from scratch. However, students at large public universities often take tests in multiple-choice format, a fundamental difference in testing that will lead to fundamentally different grading...
...hostility comes off as personal beefs directed at particular individuals rather than undifferentiated hatred - there's as much confession here as declamation - and if the cinematic depictions of violence are disturbing, so are Martin Scorsese's, only Marty doesn't usually make me laugh.

...lives than clot-busting drugs. Both treatments aim to clear arterial blockages that deprive the heart of oxygen. But the odds of dying in a hospital after an emergency angioplasty--a balloon-tipped catheter is threaded through the vessel--are 40% lower than after a round of clot busters. Caveat: the finding applies only to centers that perform angioplasties frequently--at least 50 times a year...
