...Admittedly, you might have more fun at The Valet, a deft, daft, totally unbelievable yet somehow totally engaging comedy, in which a rich guy (Daniel Auteuil) tries to fool his wife into believing that his drop-dead, supermodel mistress (Elena Simonsen) is really in love with Fran&ecedil;ois (Gad Elmaleh) a not too smart parking boy at a posh restaurant. It's totally preposterous, but everyone is really rather reasonable, patient and lovable in an idiotic situation. Tales like this used to be known as boulevard comedies and, you have to say, Paris has the boulevards to sustain them...

Owners say Qdoba will offer a full menu of Mexican staples, along with “warm tones” and “very nice wood furniture.” “We have been pursuing this location for over three years,” said Gad Liwerant, a co-owner of Chair 5 Restaurants, which controls Qdoba’s franchising rights in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.

Europe has nurtured idealized visions of railroads ever since the British engineer George Stephenson drove a steam engine from Stockton to Darlington - the world's first public railroad - in 1825.

Is your problem, perhaps, ADHD (attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder), SAD (seasonal affective disorder) or GAD (generalized anxiety disorder)? Or could it be all three...
LIBYA Compensation Once the West's enemy No.1, Libyan leader Muammar Gad-dafi may soon be helping U.S. President George W. Bush's "war on terrorism." In talks with British Foreign Office minister Mike O'Brien, Gad-dafi promised to help fight al-Qaeda. He also sought assurances that Libya would not be pursued in the courts if it accepted responsibility for blowing up a U.S. airliner over Lockerbie, Scotland in 1988. Libya said it was ready to pay compensation in return for the end of U.N. sanctions...
