...trying to be conscious of keeping all that chub on there? No intense exercise routines, or organic diets... I think it's easier to laugh at guys who aren't good-looking. I've always found it hard to laugh when I'm watching a handsome star. That's why I keep it all on - hell, I'm eating chicken wings right now, as we talk on the phone...

...creamy bed of ivory lentils, topped with seared root vegetables, and drizzled with a cider gastrique stole the hearts of students and judges at Winthrop House’s vegetarian cook-off last night. Four teams competed to create environmentally-conscious and delicious dishes from a table overflowing with produce that ranged from parsnips as thick as a forearm to piles of feathery-headed fennel. The student chefs also incorporated ingredients from a mystery box that contained apples, ivory lentils, bok choy, and organic tofu. Dishes ranged from coconut lentil soup with tofu croutons to a bed of sauteed greens...

...early rock 'n' roll is almost unmatched. Holly was barely out of high school when he opened for Elvis Presley in 1955.

...only beings acting physically on their fields and courts, with all of the mental processing being allotted to the coach. Of course, the coach is not on the playing surface and must work by mentally connecting and advising the players, but to think that these athletes have no conscious understanding, or more importantly control, of the sway of a game—especially when it becomes out of hand—is the fallacious thought process that talking heads have made across the country...

Word of that obligation does not seem to have reached Kiwanga. In one case last October, an elderly Spanish nun, Sister María, was caught in the cross fire between rebels and the Congolese army and became trapped under a falling wall. Still conscious, Sister María used her mobile phone to call Father George at a nearby Catholic mission. He contacted officials at MONUC and asked for an armored rescue but says they refused. A few hours later, the rebels carried Sister María to the front line. From there, a group of nuns took her to the Rutshuru...
