...Lunch patrons make the most of their privacy. Down the hall from Wong, a middle-aged couple canoodled on their room's black pleather couch. In another room, two girls in prim white school uniforms and navy cardigans sang earnestly between slurps of udon, their eyes glued to the screen. High school boys with spiky hair whooped and crooned...
...there anything you won't make fun of? - Jennifer Black Stern, Aliso Viejo, Calif. In May there were rumors that Patrick Swayze had passed away. I didn't perpetuate those rumors. When Heath Ledger passed away, there were hordes of paparazzi camped outside Michelle Williams' house. I didn't run any of those pictures.

Pic is intrigued by unusual smoked tastes too. Asparagus is lightly smoked over beech and served with an exquisite layer of Aquitaine caviar. Even more unconventionally, the subtle bitter roast of Blue Mountain coffee is an inspired partner to low-temperature-steamed turbot, butter whisked with Menton lemon...
...thing, Morial says, the two sides have begun to learn much more about each other, thanks in part to joint political lobbying work in recent years between groups like the Urban League and La Raza, a major Latino advocacy organization in Washington. Black leaders now realize that they can't expect a group like Latinos, with such diverse national origins, to be as politically monolithic as blacks have historically been. Latino leaders, in turn, are less prone to underestimate (as leaders in South American and Caribbean countries too often do) the social disadvantages of being black in America...
