...makes for interesting (if effortless) reading; and that is what gets A's. Underline them, capitalize them, inset them in outline form; be sure we don't miss them. Why do you think all exams insist at the top, "Illustrate"; "Be specific"; etc. They mean it. The illustrations needn't of course be singularly relevant; but they must be there. If Vague Generalities are anathema, sparkling chips of concrete scattered through your bluebook will have you up for sainthood. Or at least Dean's List. Name at least the titles of every other book Hume ever wrote; don't just...

...while the story was no belated April Fools' Day hoax, it needn't strike fear into Scrabble purists' hearts either. Some media reports claimed that the new rules would forever change the face of the game, but Mattel insists that they will only apply to Scrabble Trickster - a spin-off game going on sale in July - and that the classic version will still be available for sale. The new game will initially be available only in the U.K., where Mattel owns the rights to the game. Hasbro, which owns the rights to Scrabble in the U.S., says...

...these theological metaphors make the movie a potential magnet for Evangelical Christians - the first violent, R-rated Passion play since Mel Gibson's in 2004. Gibson had his own action franchises: the Mad Max and Lethal Weapon films. The Book of Eli needn't be that.

Researchers like Terwindt and Schur have already begun hunting for the exact genes that may underlie both migraine and depression - information that could lead to novel treatments for both conditions. But headache sufferers needn't wait around for such results. "If you have a headache that is disabling and comes and goes, the overwhelming odds are that it is migraine," says Dr. Stephen Silberstein, director of the Jefferson Headache Center in Philadelphia. Sufferers should consult their primary-care physicians for treatment, since there are already very effective treatments for migraines on the market today, and some medications (like the tricyclic...

...vital for Kraft to be viewed as respectful of Cadbury's British values - especially in the U.K., the world's second largest candy market. But it needn't be unprofitable. Take the Mini, for instance. German automaker BMW, which started producing the cars in 2001 after the collapse of British manufacturer Rover Group, has reaped rich rewards by "playing up the Britishness and keeping a link to the heritage" of its spruced-up new models, says David Bailey, a professor of international business strategy and economics at Coventry University. Ford, on the other hand, fell afoul as the former owner...
