Church Ave.
Ram's Roti, 1919 Church Ave.: The top choice among Caribbean locals. Using traditional Trinidadian spices, the roti at Ram's comes paired with chicken, goat, beef or shrimp. Swing by for breakfast on Saturdays to sample the mango curry or fried eggplant with potatoes.

"When someone opens the doors, you can even smell it. It's great."
Along with traditional Chinese favorites like barbecue duck and roast pork, Triple Z's more popular menu items include fried tofu with fish filet and pork chops with onions. Entrées are $8 to $12.

Restaurant closed after dead deer found in kitchen - Yahoo! News
Restaurant closed after dead deer found in kitchen - Yahoo! News
HAMBURG, N.Y. – Health officials shut down a suburban Buffalo restaurant after an inspector found employees butchering a dead deer inside the business. Erie County Health Department officials said they got a tip Friday about a dead deer in the China King restaurant in the town of Hamburg, just south of Buffalo.
An inspector soon arrived and saw the deer being butchered in the kitchen.
State health laws prohibit butchering an animal inside a restaurant.
Officials don't know whether the deer had been killed by a hunter or a vehicle. They said there was no indication the deer meat was served to any customers.
The message on the restaurant's answering machine Monday says it was closed because of "family emergencies."
----------------
No way will they allow fresh deer meat to be served to customers. That would be terrible.

Al Sharpton
http://www.amny.com/news/local/crime/ny-nysharpton1009,0,2134185.story
Criminal Court Judge Larry Stephen issued the verdict on Wednesday. He sentenced the defendants to time already served -- in Sharpton's case, five hours -- and ordered each to pay a court surcharge of $95."I am of course sympathetic to the underlying issues which gave rise to the protests and demonstrations on May 7," Stephen said. He said he believed the demonstrators acted for reasons of conscience but they broke the law."If you decide to take a bullet for the team, you should not complain about the consequences that flow from that," the judge said.

So far, the McCain-Palin hugs have been brief and a little stiff, in part because Mr. McCain cannot raise his arms up high because of injuries sustained as a prisoner of war in Vietnam. But Ms. Palin, too, appears to keep a distance
--That's harsh, but so funny.

Rice meets Gadhafi on historic visit to Libya - Yahoo! News
Rice meets Gadhafi on historic visit to Libya - Yahoo! News
Libya has changed, American has changed, the world has changed," Foreign Minister Abdel-Rahman Shalgam said following a meeting with Rice. "Forget the past."
They then exchanged pleasantries, with Rice offering Gadhafi greetings from President Bush and Gadhafi asking about the hurricanes that have hit or are headed to the U.S. mainland, before dozens of reporters, photographers and television cameramen were ushered out.
Their small talk belied almost 30 years of dismal U.S.-Libyan relations that hit their low point in the 1980s when Reagan ordered the retaliatory airstrike and Gadhafi swore revenge.
Gadhafi is known for often unpredictable behavior and has cultivated images as both an Arab potentate and African monarch since taking power in a 1969 coup. In a televised address to the nation this week he said he considers the United States neither a friend nor an enemy.
In an interview with Al-Jazeera television last year, Gadhafi spoke of Rice in most unusual terms, calling her "Leezza" and suggesting that she actually runs the Arab world with which he has had severe differences in the past.
"I support my darling black African woman," he said. "I admire and am very proud of the way she leans back and gives orders to the Arab leaders. ... Leezza, Leezza, Leezza. ... I love her very much. I admire her, and I'm proud of her, because she's a black woman of African origin."
Rice is the first secretary of state to visit Libya since John Foster Dulles in 1953 and the highest-ranking U.S. official to visit since then-Vice President Richard Nixon in 1957.
