...other Office anymore. The remake of the great British sitcom has found its own voice, satirizing the culture of coffee, cubicles and Chili's with heart and laser precision. The deep bench of its cast provides a pointillistic taxonomy of American office life (who doesn't work with an Angela, a Kevin or a Stanley?). And the wistful Pam-and-Jim almost-romance--all together now: Awww!--threatens to give the Sam-and-Diane saga a run for its long-unconsummated money...
...contest with quite similar resumes. Both teams have two losses on the season—the Wildcats falling to Boston College and top-ranked Mercyhurst and the Crimson to No. 7 St. Lawrence and UConn—and strong talent at the forward position.

For the first time, a majority of Turks say they do not believe Turkey will ever be accepted into the Union. And a majority of Europeans...
...avoid appearing together at home. Even so, there have been mix-ups. The Financial Times told its readers that Prime Minister Kaczynski visited Britain when, in fact, it was the President. A reporter for BBC Newshour asked President Kaczynski about his earlier talks with the German Chancellor Angela Merkel. But it was his brother who had traveled to Berlin. "Let's be precise," replied the miffed President. It's my brother who met with Angela Merkel though perhaps I am a little bit similar...
