...priggish, puritanical, blue-nosed, mandarin, snotty point of view that I represent has been utterly discredited, while the burger has come to accommodate a vast scope not just of proteins but of ethnicities and flavors and different sectors of society. Accessibility is just such a great thing. If everybody that looks at your product feels that they can join in and be a part of it, that's great. That's how I look at it. So for any great chef to put his or her favorite flavors between a bun, that just makes all these great chefs at this...

And Russia has a resource that other nations envy: a fervid hacker culture with a reputation for excellence...
Before overtime started, I ran into the concourse of Canada Hockey Place to talk to a few fans. I wanted to grasp Canada's collective panic for letting the gold slip away so late in the game. But here's the thing: Canadians know hockey. They know that at the end of games, when the other team pulls the goaltender to gain a man advantage, and applies dizzying late-game pressure, these things happen. No one was crying or holding their hair in the aisles...
