For today's video interlude, Bobby Flay goes on CBS to explore the wonderful world of the slider, hitting up New Jersey diners with burger man Nick Solares and L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon to try their $38 kobe/foie gras interpretation. [CBS]
Haywood blames the Wizards’ 3-9 start on “ego.” Gilbert leads the team in shots while also having the team’s lowest shooting percentage. Arenas blames the 3-9 start on “hidden agendas” of free agents to be. Brendan is the team’s only prominent pending free agent. This is not good. [Wiz Insider] Mike Miller may be hurt, which [...]
We decide to celebrate the aforementioned birthday with a dinner for two at Pichet on trinity street about which much had been written since it opened, most of it very good. For the evening that was in it, rather than have a pint in a pub beforehand we opted to go all posh and have a glass of wine in the winebar in the basement of Fallon & Byrne, which belied the "recession" by being...

Imagine yourself a weary traveler stranded in Chicago for the night and you drag yourself to the lobby of the O'Hare Airport Hilton, eager for a respite. This is the scene you would come across right now, about 25...
A System Update is scheduled to hit Xbox LIVE this afternoon, but there’s no sense in celebrating the progress of the status bar. As Major Nelson is advising via his blog, this is not the update that adds all those E3-announced goodies like Twitter and Facebook and Last.FM. This is just one of those mandatory updates that does something only tech gremlins or a wizard can understand. At the end...

The former BYU player put his team ahead 64-63 with 47 seconds left in the game, and coach Bob Pierce's squad held on for a two-point win against its Western Conference rival.
Following the frankly ass-poor performance from your man Nick Griffin on Question Time yesterday, I'd like to propose a new standard by which we measure the BNP's electability. This is a serious point now, one which hopefully ought to cut through all the hypocrisy, mud-slinging and slander. Are you ready? Here it is. Don't not vote for him because he's racist - don't vote for him because he's rubbish...
The man from Auntie had wanted to make the whole thing sound routine. BBC director general Mark Thompson wrote on our pages yesterday : "It is a straightforward matter of fact that … the BNP has demonstrated a level of support that would normally lead to an occasional invitation to join the panel on Question Time". But there was nothing normal about the show last night, in which the...
I tried yesterday to concoct a post that fully expressed my anger and frustration with all things Louisville football, but the sad truth is I've grown too numb to make that kind of concerted effort. I'm tired of talking about Louisville football, I'm tired of thinking about Louisville football and I'm really tired of watching Louisville football. This season has been everything most of us feared it...
