...Each weeknight, Quincy chefs prepare about 250 made-to-order grill requests for the 450 total students who come to eat. On weekends, when the staff working behind the counter shrinks, the number of grill orders drops...
...competitors and big names jumping on the bandwagon. This fall VH1 adds The Road to Fame, on rising bands; CNBC is preparing the as yet unscheduled In Profile with Bob Costas, on sports, entertainment and (especially) business luminaries; and MSNBC launches Headliners & Legends with Matt Lauer (one hour every weeknight) on Sept. 27.

A lobbyist and lawyer, Tom only occasionally wanders in to see what they're up to. "I'd rather have them and their friends playing video games here than be out roaming the streets," he says. Although Peter...
...play lacrosse and in the off-season I try to work out pretty regularly, and sometimes end up at the MAC at weird off-hours when there aren't many people there. Pretty late one weeknight I needed a spotter for the freeweights, and the only people there were this old-ish guy on the treadmill and some chick on the treadmill. She looked great but I didn't want to ask her, and this other guy who looked like he could handle it, so I asked him and he said he'd do it. I put on a couple...
