...Hers was Jenny, the lead character in the Lone Scherfig film An Education, which was adapted from the Lynn Barber memoir about a teenager who falls head over heels for a charming but flawed man. Mulligan's portrayal of a young woman who blooms with love only to wilt upon discovering its complexities has captured the hearts of critics and Oscar voters and has established her as one of the front runners going into the ceremony on March 7. TIME spoke to the actress about her magical year at the top of her profession. (See TIME's tribute...

This surely will not be an easy endeavor, and it will require both vigilance and collaboration between all branches of government and governments abroad. But it is not an impossible proposition and does not require that we forfeit our right to privacy to the federal apparatuses, whether they are legal or governmental...

Like sashimi or peaches and cream, it's a gastronomic end point. But this is America.
