...Impromptu Gourmet meals, also about $70, came in far prettier boxes, and there were only two--one for the breast of duck with a pomegranate molasses glaze ($39.95 for two servings) by Charlie Palmer of New York City's Aureole, the other for the molten chocolate cake with caramel custard sauce ($12.95) from Manhattan's Gramercy Tavern. At first I was a tad overwhelmed by the 10 plastic bags that the ingredients came in. Luckily, assembling the spread turned out to be as easy as painting by numbers.

U.N. officials put the death toll at about 50, as displaced people lined roads into Rwanda and gathered in the town of Gisenyi. As the 3,469-m volcano continued to spew molten rock, earthquakes shook the area and a cloud of smoke hung in the air. The lava flow ended in Lake Kivu, on the border...

Until then, the Taliban police are wreaking their own violence--against musical instruments and anyone who dares enjoy their...
...some 4.5 billion years ago, was just five hours long, but it was a momentous one for Earth. A Mars-size object roaring in at 25,000 m.p.h. struck the young planet, already largely formed but devoid of life. The glancing blow hurled molten and vaporized debris into space, where it cooled, began circling Earth and eventually coalesced to form the moon...
