...parlor. During busy shifts, it takes four or five bakers—all clad in the trademark white uniform—to keep hot pizza in supply. While stretching dough, making subs and serving customers, Noch’s pizzamakers maneuver adroitly to avoid collisions. There is little idle chatter. The concentration, says Pinocchio’s owner and manager Rico DiCenso, is necessary because Noch’s takes its pizza very seriously...
...you’re anything like me, you’ve probably done your best to ignore the maddening chatter of your friends as they scheme and strategize. How tragic it is to watch promising minds turn to mush when the problems they face switch from political theory and organic chemistry to taxi cabs and dinner reservations.

...players involved denied any funny business, but that didn't stop the chatter. It doesn't take much to get people talking about Rove. He is the architect of Bush's two gubernatorial victories in Texas as well as his presidential race. He has also been the President's tutor, feeding him histories and biographies to read. Inside the White House he is at the center of every political and domestic policy decision. He helps determine where the President spends his political capital, and in an election year when both houses of Congress are up for grabs, he is watching...
