...Bocuse d'Or plays at a higher level, and brings fanatical nationalism into the mix, but it's the same essential spirit - Top Chef finalist Kevin Gillespie had a shot this year, and season 3 winner Hung Huynh two years ago. Gillespie pulled out because he didn't have time to prepare, but Hung almost won the qualifer two years ago. Still, Top Chef and its ilk are roundly mocked by actual top chefs (no matter how many appear on the show as guest judges.) So why would culinary demigods like Thomas Keller, Daniel Boulud and the great Paul Bocuse...

The winner might be too heavy to move boats or have horrible technique. But this, too, isn’t unique to CRASH-Bs. Observe the frenzy surrounding the NFL Combine. Somehow, no one figured out that JaMarcus Russell wasn’t exactly first-pick material. At least rowing national teams don’t sign rowers immediately after they complete...
This year's Sex Week features sexpert Susan M. Block (better known as Dr. Suzy), seven-time Woody Award winner Sasha Grey, and pioneering female to male transsexual porn star Buck Angel. With lectures such as "Babeland’s Lip Tricks: Blowjobs and Going Down," "Sexual Fantasies," and "The 'M' Word" (spoiler alert: it's masturbation), expect our frenemies in New Haven to go from sexually inept to sexually adept...
