...ribs from Friday's "Right Portion, Right Price" menu. Unlike Ruby Tuesday, Friday's and Cheesecake Factory are cutting prices along with meal size, so each dish was a few dollars cheaper than the larger entrées. Though the protein was two-thirds the size of that in a normal Friday's meal, the side dishes were the same size as always. We were already planning on ordering some potato skins. To our surprise, however, when we finished, we were full, but not stuffed. And we ordered dessert and drinks--which is just what the financially ailing Friday's hopes...

...Royal, for her part, did precisely that. Her dander ran highest after Sarkozy argued that handicapped children in France should be integrated into normal schools. Royal said it was "scandalous" and "the height of political immorality" for Sarkozy to make such a proposition "with a tear in your eye" when the conservative government he has served in for the last five years, she claimed, suppressed the teaching positions that would have made such a policy possible. Sarkozy tried to turn the exchange to his advantage by intoning that the responsibilities of the presidency are "very heavy" and that using words...
