When i arrived at christie's for sunday breakfast, i found the place full but efficient enough to have us seated right away. christie's is unassuming both outside and in, and the wait staff is friendly and accommodating. the dcor is simple, understated and new--christie's opened on september 26 after a year of renovation on the building. robert mcarthur former chef under wolfgang puck's tutelage ; , martin jackson, bart bergquist and amy sue sherman came together to make jackson's vision for an upscale family restaurant come alive. named after jackson's daughter, christie's serves breakfast, lunch and dinner to crowds hungry for something new in nopo. mcarthur, who runs the day to day operations, plans on serving hors d'oeuvres on friday and saturday nights and featuring ice sculptures.

The next night i came and i had the same new waitress. "what's the idea of leaving the cup upside down last time?" "well, i thought that even though you were in a hurry, you'd have to go back into the kitchen and get a soup plate; then you'd have to sloooowly and carefully slide the cup over to the edge of the table ." did that, " she complained, "but there was no water in it!" my masterpiece of mischief happened at the fraternity. one morning i woke up very early, about five o'clock, and couldn't go back to sleep, so i went downstairs from the sleeping rooms and discovered some signs hanging on strings which said things like "door! door! who stole the door?" i saw that someone had taken a door off its hinges, and in its place they hung a sign that said, "please close the door!"--the sign that used to be on the door that was missing. i immediately figured out what the idea was. in that room a guy named pete bernays and a couple of other guys liked to work very hard, and always wanted it quiet. if you wandered into their room looking for something, or to ask them how they did problem such and such, when you would leave you would always hear these guys scream, "please close the door!" somebody had gotten tired of this, no doubt, and had taken the door off. now this room, it so happened, had two doors, the way it was built, so i got an idea: i took the other door off its hinges, carried it downstairs, and hid it in the basement behind the oil tank. then i quietly went back upstairs and went to bed. later in the morning i made believe i woke up and came downstairs a little late. the other guys were milling around, and pete and his friends were all upset: the doors to their room were missing, and they had to study, blah, blah, blah, blah. i was coming down the stairs and they said, "feynman! did you take the doors?" "oh, yeah!" i said. "i took the door. you can see the scratches on my knuckles here, that i got when my hands scraped against the wall as i was carrying it down into the basement." they weren't satisfied with my answer; in fact, they didn't believe me. the guys who took the first door had left so many clues--the handwriting on the signs, for instance--that they were soon found out. my idea was that when it was found out who stole the first door, everybody would think they also stole the other door. it worked perfectly: the guys who took the first door were pummeled and tortured and worked on by everybody, until finally, with much pain and difficulty, they convinced their tormentors that they had only taken one door, unbelievable as it might be. i listened to all this, and i was happy. the other door stayed missing for a whole week, and it became more and more important to the guys who were trying to study in that room that the other door be found. finally, in order to solve the problem, the president of the fraternity says at the dinner table, "we have to solve this problem of t he other door. i haven't been able to solve the problem myself, so i would like suggestions from the rest of you as to how to straighten this out, because pete and the others are trying to study." somebody makes a suggestion, then someone else. after a little while, i get up and make a suggestion. "all right, " i say in a sarcastic voice, "whoever you are who stole the door, we know you're wonderful. you're so clever! we can't figure out who you are, so you must be some sort of super-genius. you don't have t o tell us who you are; all we want to know is where the door is. so if you will leave a note somewhere, telling us where the door is, we will honor you and admit forever that you are a super-marvel, that you are so smart that you could take the other door without our being able to figure out who you are. but for god's sake, just leave the note somewhere, and we will be forever grateful to you for it." the next guy makes his suggestion: "i have another idea, " he says. "i think that you, as president, should ask each man on his word of honor towards the fraternity to say whether he took the door or not." the president says, "that's a very good idea. on the fraternity word of honor!" so he goes around the table, and asks each guy, one by one: "jack, did you take the door?" "no, sir, i did not take the door." "tim: did you take the door?" "no, sir! i did not take the door!" "maurice. did you take the door?" "no, i did not take the door, sir." "feynman, did you take the door?" "yeah, i took the door." "cut it out, feynman; this is serious! sam! did you take the door ." --it went all the way around. everyone was shocked. there must be some real rat in the fraternity who didn't respect the fraternity word of honor! that night i left a note with a little picture of the oil tank and the door next to it, and the next day they found the door and put it back.

Matt: with a good combination of hitting, speed, defense and pitching, the los angeles dodgers have all of the tools necessary to sneak into the playoffs as a wild card, despite being two and a half games behind the padres. seasoned veterans brad penny, derek lowe and david wells will give the team solid starts down the stretch, and the bullpen, led by closer takashi saito, is one of the major's best. time is running out for the dodgers to make a move, but with a three-game series against the wild-card leaders beginning on tuesday, they'll have a great opportunity to close the gap. paul: aside from the new york mets, every team in the league has been very mediocre this entire season. however, assuming that the arizona diamondbacks will win the nl west, i feel that the san diego padres will win the nl wild card. adrian gonzalez is having a nice season leading the padres in home runs, rbi and runs scored, but there are only two players on the padres that are really keeping them in the playoff race. jake peavy and trevor hoffman are both having amazing seasons. peavy leads the nl in wins 16 ; , strikeouts 210 ; and era .243 ; , and is strong candidate to win the cy young award at season's end. hoffman has been absolutely lights out with 37 saves.
