...test will be just 20 to 30 minutes, compared with 70 minutes each for math and reading. Less time means fewer questions, and it's harder to wring out measurement error with a small number of items. (Think about it this way: if you taste only one dish served by a chef, you can't judge him with as much precision as if you eat everything on the menu.) Even worse, each test will feature just one essay topic; if you retake the test and get a topic you really love, your score could shoot up--a clear example...

...should replace as many refined carbs as you can with whole grains such as brown or wild rice, bulgur, barley and whole-grain flours. A seven-grain dinner roll isn't as scary as it sounds. And if you don't relish a side dish of buckwheat groats, add some to soups and salads. If you don't like whole-wheat pasta (and who does?), eat your favorite but less...

The movie begins with the Shaw Bros. fanfare, switches to a cheesy, scratchy OUR FEATURE PRESENTATION sign, then offers "Revenge is a dish best served cold. --old Klingon proverb." (In other words, Warning to audiences: We will have fun. You will get wet.) But there's no kidding in the Bride's plan or demeanor; Thurman's laser stare could find Saddam and kill Osama. The showdowns with her main adversaries--Ishii and Vernita Green (Vivica A. Fox)--are no laughing matter either. These are women...

...work in kitchens throughout Europe, Samuelsson became executive chef at New York City's sleek Aquavit in 1995 when he was only 24; he has lived in New York ever since, with annual visits to both Sweden and Ethiopia. His recipes reflect his global view, with traditional Swedish dishes--such as gravlax with mustard sauce, prune-stuffed pork roast and, yes, Swedish meatballs--interspersed with his own creations like pickled herring sushi style that reflect his fascination with Japanese food, and coffee-roasted duck breasts, inspired by Ethiopia. His roots are Swedish, he says, but "I am an American...

Somewhere inside each journalist live two characters, a crusader and a gossip. They want to know the story, and they have to tell it--because it's important and because it's such great dish. Often these impulses result in nothing more elevated than a refried handout or a disposable movie review. But some newspeople risk more than their self-esteem to keep the public informed. At least a dozen reporters have been killed covering the current Iraq engagement; 148 have died in Russia of unnatural causes since 1992. And usually these deaths go largely unmourned, sadly unnoticed...
