Whether served as raw sushi, grilled steak or in thin smoked slices, most of the salmon you eat these days is not the sleek sport fish that has been a favorite of anglers since Izaak Walton but rather a chunky, sluggish creature raised in captivity. Indeed, salmon caught in the wild accounts for less than half of all salmon sold...
...wrestling is more about huge audiences than high art. So when World Wrestling Federation chairman Vince McMahon pulled the plug on commercials for a controversial wrestling documentary that were scheduled to air during UPN's "SmackDown!" and USA Network's "Sunday Night Heat" and "Raw Is War," the movie's producers sensed a bid to kill their film.

Indeed, the Dunster House Opera's performance of The Magic Flute was refreshing, creative and thoroughly delightful...
...Played by Vin Diesel (you might recognize him from Saving Private Ryan), Riddick is a huge mass of raw strength; the most spectacular things about him are his...eyes. Yes, that's right, not the huge muscles or that deep, scary voice. It's the see-in-the-dark eyes (contact lenses that Vin Diesel described as similar to "hubcaps off a 1960 Plymouth, painted blue") and the mysterious goggles he wears to protect them in broad daylight...
