Sat, 28 May 2005 18:00:00 EST Mortimer B. Zuckerman: Right down the middle

'Honor, trust, and respect for the Senate and the Constitution." These were the exalted words that enabled a bipartisan group of senators to avoid a destructive confrontation over judicial appointments. They overcame the threat to impose what Republicans themselves branded as the "nuclear option," which would have changed the long-standing rules that permitted the use of the filibuster to delay votes on judicial nominees. Many conservatives feel the Supreme Court is at the heart of the culture war in American life because of its rulings on issues like school prayer, obscenity and, above all, abortion.

When a flood in Louisa Jaggar's Glen Echo, Md., home ruined her kids' artwork, she sat on the basement steps and cried.

Sat, 28 May 2005 18:00:00 EST Just desserts

Life is short--eat dessert first" turns out to be a sound business plan. Eateries are springing up where you can have dessert first . . . second, and third. Boston's Finale, which opened in 1998, appears to have kicked off the trend. "We're trying to educate customers about the difference between a $5 slab of cake and a $10 premium dessert," says cofounder Paul Conforti. Finale now has a second spot, near Harvard, and hopes to add more. Barcelona's Espai Sucre (Sugar Space) serves exotic sweets: Care for a "salad" of spicy milk-pudding cubes, apple sticks, arugula, and caramel? Then there's the $1,000 brownie at Brûlee, which opened in February at Atlantic City's Tropicana Hotel and Casino. The dessert is dusted with edible gold powder and served with a rare, 1996 Quinta do Noval Nacional port in a crystal atomizer. Take a bite, open wide, and the dessert captain squirts a mist of port on your tongue. The $750 atomizer is yours to keep. So far, three have been sold. It doesn't get much sweeter than that.
