...large cubes of chorizo was heavy-handed and the spicy sausage overwhelmed the delicate flavor of the fish. Seared duck breast ($16.95) was distinctly disappointing. The slices of meat were cooked inconsistently, ranging from medium rare to a dry, grayish well-done. The kitchen had overly reduced the pomegranate glaze coating the duck, resulting in a sickly-sweet concoction tasting faintly of Robitussin...

...program that helps working Americans stay out of poverty. At most, such cheating amounts to $9 billion a year. Yet on a per-dollar basis, the IRS has only a quarter as many employees investigating more than $300 billion a year of other fraud. (The eyes tend to glaze over when faced with numbers like these, but $300 billion a year is more than we spend on Medicare). In all, EITC recipients are three times more likely to be audited than those with incomes above $100,000. Why would Congress put such a disproportionate burden on the working poor? Here?...
...Impromptu Gourmet meals, also about $70, came in far prettier boxes, and there were only two--one for the breast of duck with a pomegranate molasses glaze ($39.95 for two servings) by Charlie Palmer of New York City's Aureole, the other for the molten chocolate cake with caramel custard sauce ($12.95) from Manhattan's Gramercy Tavern. At first I was a tad overwhelmed by the 10 plastic bags that the ingredients came in. Luckily, assembling the spread turned out to be as easy as painting by numbers. Since Impromptu's meals come refrigerated instead of frozen like FiveLeaf...
...introduction is filmed grainy and under-exposed, appearing as much a pickpocketing documentary as a time for character development. When Clooney happens upon his ex-wife, Tess Ocean (Julia Roberts), the restaurant scene is softly lit from a single table lamp; palpably romantic, it plays skilfully against the oily glaze of the casino. Soderbergh is perhaps also the contemporary director most adept at using music to underscore the tenor of his films. David Holmes’ slinky, funky score mixes with 60s swing and hints of Vegas glam, lending the film a coolly hip pulse...
