that will pass instantly into swimming legend, while the men's
basketball team merely delivered itself from another embarrassment.

The First Rule Of The Olympics: You
Can't Talk About The Olympics
The First Rule Of The Olympics: You
Can't Talk About The Olympics
08/20/2004 02:25 AMWe've already talked about how the Olympics forced certain radio
stations to
pull
their internet streams because they weren't approved for internet
broadcasts of the Olympics, and now comes the news that
no athletes participating in the games are allowed to talk
about their experiences on websites. Considering the number of
empty seats (and the weak television coverage), giving the games a
more personal feel, letting the athletes talk for themselves (rather
than those sappy profiles on TV) would help people to connect more
with the games. That, though, would involve remembering that the
games are actually about what happens in the events, and not how much
the Olympics can squeeze out of sponsors. Haven't they figured out
yet, that if no one cares about the games, no one will want to sponsor
the Olympics any more? As for those who dare to disobey and actually
talk about their experiences online? The Olympics are threatening to
remove their credentials or possibly "take legal action for any
monetary damages." Monetary
damages? From posting your
thoughts on the games? Seems pretty clear just how focused the
Olympic organizers are on money instead of the athletes and the
contests.

Masa grabs four stars
Masa grabs four stars
12/30/2004 11:54 AMMasa, the very expensive Japanese restaurant at the Time Warner Center
gets four stars from New York Times restaurant critic Frank Bruni:
Sushi at Masa Is a Zen Thing.
Simply put, Masa engineers discrete moments of pure elation that few
if any other restaurants can match.
It also becomes the first Japanese restaurant in New York to garner
four stars from the Times since Hatsuhana in 1983. Bruni's experiences
sound incredible, and yet as much as I love sushi, I can't fathom
spending $350 per person (not including tip, tax, or drinks) to
experience it. Not even if I saved up a dollar every day for year. It
sure sounds yummy though. Maybe someday someone will treat me to a
dinner there. That would be ideal!
