...handling of terror attacks in London and Glasgow and an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease. The Prime Minister's stolidity, perceived only a few months ago as weakness, now reads like strength. "Not flash, just Gordon," runs Labour's latest slogan. In his convention speech - a doggedly uninspiring hour-long sermon bracketed by emotional ovations and punctuated by endearing verbal stumbles - Brown played up to his new image. "People say I am too serious and I fight too hard and maybe that's true," he said, but "things don't always come easy and there are some things worth...
...this for a 21st century romance: Dr. Laura Minikel met Bent Balle on an airplane in 2000--she returning to the U.S. from practicing medicine in Africa, he escorting his parents on holiday from their native Denmark. Minikel and Balle chatted throughout the 11-hour flight and later met for coffee near her home in San Francisco before Balle returned to Denmark.

But where should the hungry Harvard student go when he has a hankering for something more exotic? Last Sunday, appetite in tow, I trekked up Kirkland Street to Savenor’s Market. Julia Child used to frequent this famed foodie haunt, a carnivore’s fantasyland that stocks every cut of meat imaginable and provides its products to local restaurants like Upstairs...
...After an hour, he is ready to respond. He does so first with a half-hour ode to the relationship between man and God that might have been dictated by the Persian poet Rumi. "I believe that Almighty God created the universe for mankind. Man is God's most important creation and it is through him that we appreciate the beauties of the universe. God has sent man here on a mission." That mission, he says, is to pursue love, justice, kindness and dignity. In fact, he repeats those works so often that it begins to sound like a mantra...
