...nothing more depressing than having to double amounts that already border on the expensive. The typical poor college student begrudgingly gnaws away for months at stacks of ten-cent ramen noodles; said student would find himself drowning in a $9.50 chicken ramen bowl—the cheapest soup on the menu. This menu reads: “All dishes at Wagamama are cooked to order and then served immediately to your table. This means that individual selections of your side dishes and entrées may be delivered at different times.” It also means that a group...
...Ferris Bueller, however, quickly wades into waters far too deep for him. He makes all the usual mistakes nonscientists make whenever they try to take down evolution, asking, for example, how something as complex as a living cell could have possibly arisen whole from the earth's primordial soup. The answer is it couldn't--and it didn't. Organic chemicals needed eons of stirring and slow cooking before they could produce compounds that could begin to lead to a living thing. More dishonestly, Stein employs the common dodge of enumerating all the admittedly unanswered questions in evolutionary theory...

Over time, it evolved from its narrow association with nuclear disarmament into an insignia for countercultures of all kinds. Hippies made it a sort of all-purpose symbol of peacefulness. The environmental group Greenpeace...
Right around the corner from the Quad (don’t forget your passport), this new restaurant’s cozy and intimate space and unique dishes have made it one of Cambridge’s hidden culinary gems. The appetizer options are carrot soup with vanilla and Nantucket Bay scallops, followed by an entrée choice of farm beef with polenta and valrhona chocolate sauce, or a cabbage torte puff pastry with smoked farm egg remoulade. The desert is profiteroles “a la minute” filled with saffron ice cream and bitter caramel. Usual price...
