...proverbial[an error occurred while processing this directive] garden path. Classical gardens don't get much finer than those at Chatsworth House in Derbyshire. Designed by Capability Brown in the 18th century, the grounds are so grand it's said they inspired Jane Austen's vision of Mr. Darcy's home in Pride and Prejudice; Chatsworth was used as the set of his house for last year's film adaptation. A huge maze, a rose garden and a 300-year-old hillside water cascade are just some of the pleasures set among the estate's 42 hectares, chatsworth.org...
...Edgar Degas, Mark Rothko and Georgia O'Keeffe, and blown glass by alumnus Dale Chihuly. On the city's south side is an oft-overlooked gem: Johnson & Wales University's food-focused gallery in its culinary college, where recent exhibits celebrated the American diner and the august history of Mr. Potato Head.

The U.S. crowd, some 10,000 of whom filled one corner of the arena, let loose with that classic "Bullshit, Bullshit" chant and began flinging plastic cups, some of them half filled to get greater distance. (And that cost money, by the way. All beer cups here are returnable for a one euro deposit - these...
...midfield with his passing. Despite the manpower shortage, the U.S. still managed to defend and attack in numbers. Arena inserted DaMarcus Beasley in the 62d minute, and the move almost paid off instantly: Beasley broke in from the left and put one past Italian keeper Gianluigi Buffon, but Mr. Larrionda disallowed the strike because McBride had been standing in an offside position. The American fans rained more cups - and euros - at the field...
