...speaking style, often seems like a guy trying to avoid a straight answer. Sensing that vulnerability, Republicans have run the same playbook they ran against Al Gore: portraying Kerry's personality deficiencies as deficiencies of character. As a result, while Kerry leads Bush on most domestic issues, voters turn sour when asked about Kerry the man. In last week's TIME poll, Kerry's biggest deficit versus Bush was in "sticking to his positions." Only 37% of registered voters in the survey said Kerry does that, compared with 84% for Bush...
...Wiggin, 48, an attorney from Columbus, Ohio, who's been baking artisanal bread for almost a year, has already reworked a sourdough recipe to match his tastes. "I like my sourdough fairly strong and chewy, with a fairly sour acidic taste, so I add wheat gluten to the flour," says Wiggin, who bakes about once a week. It takes him two days to prepare the dough, but the payoff, he says, is a sense of exultation when the bread comes out of the oven...
...together, but it did for him." This includes some of the 30,000 on the Bush family's Christmas-card list who should have known better than to imagine that the son would essentially serve out the father's second term.

Whether from moral outrage or sour grapes, British playwrights have made attacking the Bush-U.S. worldview, and the Blair-U.K. subsidiary role in it, a top priority. ?Guantanamo,? the documentary play about British citizens detained at the U.S. base in Cuba for years without being charged, has transferred from a successful run in London to New York?s off-Broadway. In a kind of Equity trade, the West...
...Ming dynasty. (The word nyonya refers to female descendants of mixed marriages that occurred in the area.) It's the original Asian fusion cuisine. Some of Nyonya's dishes?like the delicate but hearty pork dumplings?resemble what you'd get in typical Chinese places. Others?the slightly sour beef rendang or the piquant bean sprouts with salted fish?are more Malaysian. Much of Nyonya's menu is devoted to elegant versions of soups and stews sold in Penang streets. The penang assam laksa is one: a tangy fish broth flavored with turmeric and chili pepper, with vegetables and rice...
