...fully-functional hookah bar is certainly a unique experience in Boston, where a smoking ban has been in effect since the spring of 2003. Now that Mantra’s hookah bar is out of the competition (although the hyper-modern chrome and steel restaurant itself continues to thrive), Tangierino’s is the only establishment of its sort. Be sure to arrive early, because by around 10 p.m., all the seats in the cramped, low-lit lounge will be filled.

Right now, as they would behave toward a croupier during a winning streak, Australians feel like they want to buy these two politicians a drink - or at least to stay at their table while they deal the winning cards...
During warfare, a sudden lull in hostilities can sometimes be mistaken for a truce. But in the battle between French President Jacques Chirac and his hyper-ambitious Finance Minister, Nicolas Sarkozy, don't bet on seeing a white flag. Last week France's worst-kept secret was confirmed by the news that Sarkozy will seek the presidency of Chirac's own Union for a Popular Movement (ump) party.
