...ball of rice. Velvety tuna is pounded into the texture of tartar and mixed with scallions in the Tuna and Scallion Roll ($4.50). Iridescent slabs of yellowtail arrive on a platter ($16.50) with translucent pink tuna slices, striated salmon, and a seaweed purse brimming with giant red roe. A fat pink shrimp is split open to straddle a ball of rice, and a rather suspicious-looking orange mush in a seaweed packet turns out to be sea urchin. Mixed rolls were similarly elegant: Boston maki ($4.50) arrived in neat rolls filled with salmon, avocado and lettuce, Spicy Tuna ($5) walked...
...favor. Her D.C. colleagues can't stand her. "She's impossible to deal with. She's nuts. Totally bonkers," says a senior House Republican.

...would you really want Him to be your team? Sure, people would come from all over the world to see him go toe-to-toe with Ken Griffey Jr. and Mark McGwire, and the television contract would be fat, but would not the novelty wear off after a couple of years...
