...subway station, and rushed, fairly inattentive service. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have the prices to match. With the average meal ranging from $10 to $15 a head, it provides a very peculiar dining experience, where the communal tables and general hullabaloo make one feel like a kid at the lunch table emptying out his piggybank. The menu, reminiscent of an airplane emergency pamphlet, is a bit tough to navigate. The appetizer tidbits they call “side dishes” are good enough, but the most reliable meals are those involving noodles—after...
...lunch lines weren't moving fast enough for Linda Stoll, head of food programs at the Boulder Valley, Colo., school district.

In the original 3:10 to Yuma, the career killer and decent farmer hole up in a hotel room and have an extended existentialist conversation - like Sartre or Beckett, but at gunpoint. In Anthony Mann...
...Dawson’s freshly minted Ivy League rushing record? With 2,210 yards through 21 games, Bulldogs junior Mike McLeod is still more than a mile away (think about that), but with a 1,400-yard season for the front-running and oft-running Eli, the shifty Connecticut kid could move within striking distance...
