...soldier didn't know that. He took the flag out to the main entrance of the palace, where a group of Iraqis had gathered. He held the flag up high with one hand, and reached into his pocket with his other hand and pulled out a Zippo lighter. He had a triumphant look in his face as he announced, "This is what we'll do to Saddam...
...critics are actually sitting in the same theater I am. In fact, the show is notably lacking in sparkles, and garish is just about the last word I would use to describe the subtle and airy visual design. A gorgeous color palette of pastel blues, oranges and pinks. Translucent, lighter-than-air panels, billowing plastic waves, scepter-like deep-sea sculptures, which manage to convey not just one undersea world but a host of neighborhoods within that world. Costumes that manage to be both lush and witty - the exaggerated, bunched-crinoline hoop skirts on the court ladies, for example, made...
...Republican side, where turnout is in general expected to be lighter and the field more spread out, every vote will count.

He adds fresh Toulouse sausage as tradition there demands, but uses a lighter, sweeter Tarbes bean, finely sliced pork rind and leaner duck confit, and trades cassoulet's typical black crust, the result of hours spent in the oven, for a lightly browned one. It's not his grandmother's cassoulet, but you won't need a nap after finishing it, either...
...success until baseball hit a home run in April, when Kirk Radomski, a clubhouse attendant for the New York Mets between 1995 and 2005, pleaded guilty to providing anabolic steroids and human growth hormone to dozens of players and their associates. In exchange for what presumably will be a lighter sentence - he faces up to 25 years - Radomski agreed to cooperate with Mitchell's investigation. The Radomski probe also connected Mitchell's team to Clemens' trainer, McNamee. Cohen notes that it's certainly "unusual" for a private actor like Major League Baseball to operate in a law enforcement realm...
