...forced disclosure could lead more restaurants to change their offerings. A report by New York City health officials noted that since menu-labeling went into effect last summer, some chains have lowered the calorie counts on certain items. For example, in March 2007, a Chicken Club sandwich at Wendy's was listed as being 650 calories. In June 2008, as the New York law kicked in, the item was 540 calories - a 17% drop.

Her two early hits, plus A Time to Kill and the sinfully enjoyable Miss Congeniality, would just about exhaust the list.

...Tanzanian teaching partners, mostly university students, all have songs from 50 Cent and Ne-Yo on their cell phones. They count down the days until films like Angels and Demons are released at the theater in Arusha. One of the guys carries a not-so-secret torch for Hannah Montana.

...create it." And for that, he said, "We must start with practical issues, like getting rid of roadblocks and illegal outposts [inside the Palestinian territories]. You must understand that we used to have 41 roadblocks and now only have 16 roadblocks." But a U.N. agency disputes Lieberman's count, saying there are 69 roadblocks in the West Bank manned by Israeli security services and another 521 unmanned roadblocks restricting Palestinians' travel...
