...underage drinking at the party. "I was thinking, You're representing more than yourself," Hopman says. "It was just giving Duke a bad name." She wrote an Op-Ed in the student newspaper, the Chronicle, describing the incident. She has been told she's no longer welcome in the bar...
...metallic flavor that can overwhelm. As Batali stumbles over a loose cord onstage, it occurs to me that he must be exhausted. It's noon Sunday, and less than 12 hours before, he had been drinking with Emeril Lagasse and their entourages. They hadn't left the Peninsula hotel bar until 1:30 a.m., after the music stopped and the lights went bright. It had been the second night in a row that Batali had closed the place.

Both men seem to sigh heavily whenever...
...rooms that included a whirlpool with a family-size bottle of bubble bath. The property is so massive that I was in ?Edifico 23,? part of the ?Mango? complex. The Moon is an ?all-inclusive? resort, meaning that guest receive a wristband giving them unlimited access to all the bars and restaurants on the property. ?A cruise ship on land,? is how one journalist put it. There?s an extra charge for the temporary tattoos and full-body massages available poolside. ?Golfito,? or mini-golf and ?no gravity sensation scuba? are also offered, perfect relief from tequila volleyball.
