...perhaps this wiki thing could work. Maybe, as Michael Ruhlman argued this year in his new cookbook, Ratio, every recipe has a basic structure (cookie dough is 1 part sugar, 2 parts butter, 3 parts flour), and a wikied recipe can't stray far from...
...abstract images were also representations of a kind, correlatives of spiritual realities. He was an admirer of the Russian mystic Madame Blavatsky, founder of Theosophy, a stew of beliefs about a spiritual realm that would someday replace the material world. Though Kandinsky's dedication to Theosophy is a familiar part of his biography, the Guggenheim show, which continues through Jan. 13, is largely silent on the matter.

Sheen, 40, has just the pedigree for the part. In his youth, he was a talented-enough soccer player to be offered a trial by the London club Arsenal, and he proves on film that he hasn't lost his touch. He comes from Port Talbot, the same South Wales steel town that produced Richard Burton and Anthony Hopkins. Sheen...
