As the ramen craze continues, I am left to ponder if there is nothing that cannot be made of ramen. We have seen ramen tacos, burgers, pizzas and sandwiches. Could we not have a ramen car? A ramen house? An entire army of ramen soldiers ready to march at my command and conquer the world in my name?
The last one may go too far, but a ramen submarine sandwich roll is not. Hugh Merwin of Grub Street made one by softening ramen, mashing it into a baguette pan, then weighing the noodles down with a wine bottle for a few hours. After baking it in the oven, he had a fine sandwich roll perfect for a cheesesteak.

Mainstream games are so simplified with text now a days, but there are a few real gems which sport a fantastic written dialog.
Now, here we're talking about boosting basic skills among "disaffected learners." I find this news report mostly depressing because it indicates some kids are so damaged that they need this sort of stimulus to learn. It's not the same thing as being a visual learner. It's an attention deficit and emotional disorder issue. Maybe altered video games are the best avenue for this narrow group of kids, but I'll cry on the day it becomes a mainstream educational tool for basic subjects.
