...reinvent one of the world's favorite quick snacks? Competing teams of culinary inventors think they have a novel answer: pizza in a cone. Eating a slice on the run can be messy, so food scientists have cooked up a new conical concept that is catching on in Europe and will soon hit the U.S. This summer Konopizza expects to open shops in Indonesia, Kuwait, Spain and Greece. The chain was founded by Rossano Boscolo, a well-known Italian chef, who prides himself on the fact that the shops' single servings are hustled out of a high-powered oven...

Less than a month into their first semester, the world changed, the mission of the U.S. military changed, and the academy that produces its leaders, a place so dense with ancient tradition and ceremonial weaponry that it feels more like the Harvard of Sparta, would have to reinvent itself as well. Much of the faculty was soon rotating into the classroom straight from combat zones and bringing back combat skills--and scars. The engineering department learned to make replicas of roadside bombs so the cadets could learn how to spot them. Classes in counterinsurgency and comparative religion...
