...iron gates into meetings. He gave up his usual afternoon video games and naps for lunches with his maybe Vice President on a table set with linens and silver, evoking those famous weekly Clinton-Gore meals adjacent to the Oval Office. He jauntily shooed away photographers, claiming that his soup was getting cold, which wasn't much of a problem since his usual peanut butter and jelly had been replaced by a Martha Stewart chilled squash...
...other voters in the county became convinced on Wednesday that they had accidentally voted for Buchanan, whose total of 3,407 votes in the county was three times as high as in neighboring counties with different-style ballots. Buchanan himself, never one to miss a chance to stir hot soup if it could spill on someone named Bush, went on the air and said he did not think all those votes had been intended for him.

Bartoli showed hints of her vocal range by alternating between faster, animated songs ("Tu ch'hai le Penne, Amore," and "Amarilli...
...Linkin Park's sound is the sort of sonic soup their audience hungers for: a handful of metal, a sprinkle of hip-hop and just a pinch of ambient. But the name of the game is consistency, and Bennington and Shinoda deftly pull together the squall of tracks like "Crawling" and "One Step Closer." Indeed, picking a first single must have been near-impossible, as there are no real duds on Hybrid Theory-each track offers something to hum or shout along with. At the same time, it's hard to ignore Linkin Park's packaged feel, from their myriad...
