With less than a minute left in the Crimson’s (6-9, 1-6 Ivy) last game of the season, Big Red (5-9, 3-4 Ivy) goaltender Maggie Fava stopped a shot on goal by Harvard senior attackman Jen Brooks that would have tied the score...
Just like real supranationalism, this would all be great fun if it actually produced satisfactory results, and occasionally it does. The skillet roasted skate with morels, fava beans and asparagus ($19) was a very nice rendition of a fish that seems to be turning up on more menus by the second. The ample portion of skate was perfectly cooked, with a nice crust on the outside, but still extremely tender inside. The dish did not need to be literally swimming in butter, but the morel mushrooms were also fresh and flavorful. In another entrée bright spot, the pork...
...record, then, the Bush-Fox menu is a strongly crossover affair: Maryland crab and chorizo pozole served with summer vegetables, pumpkin seed-crusted bison with poblano whipped potato, fava bean and chanterelle ragout and apple chipotle sauce, salads of gold and red tomatoes and greens, followed by mango and coconut ice cream dome, peaches, raspberries, red chili pepper sauce and tequila sabayon.

A decade later, the slickly subdued, eerily serene Dr. Hannibal Lecter...
...suddenly living the life he always wanted. Highsmith's book keeps the audience engaged just by introducing clearheaded, elegant Tom Ripley. He's fascinating because we know what he's capable of, which is just about anything. He's like Hannibal Lecter minus all that nonsense about fava beans and a nice chianti. But the movie takes the story in an entirely different direction simply by a shift of emphasis. Where Highsmith's 1950's novel barely dares to hint at any latent homoeroticism, the movie explicitly exposes Thomas Ripley to the world, as he hungers both for Dickie...
