...comforting dinners - think pan-roasted quail, or Yorkshire pork rack - are served nightly except Mondays. But Mimolette really comes into its own at Sunday brunch, when its uncluttered dining room is filled with a buttery light. Feast on crepes, soufflés, eggs benedict, cod-brandade omelette, corned-beef hash and all the rest. Naturally, the last thing you'll want to do afterward is climb into the saddle - let others gallop across the surrounding meadows while you sit back and watch contentedly...
...Hash House Harriers is a social group of runners that meets in cities all over the world to go for a jog followed by a few beers. It calls itself "a drinking club with a running problem."

I mean something that is more human than political wonkery, something you forget as you are overcome by primaries and polls. Politics is important, but some things in life should remain...
...larger point is that there's little evidence the McCain surge represents a Republican rejection of Bush or any of the various strands of conservatism. Primary season is always a branding process, a way for political parties to hash out their identities, and throughout this campaign Republicans have embraced conservatism as consistently as Democrats have embraced change. And even many disgruntled conservatives believe there's one presidential candidate who can still motivate their disappointed base. She's not a Republican...
