A very wise man named Clifton Fadiman once waxed philosophically about cheese, saying it was milk's leap toward immortality. If that's true, then considering the fine plates of artisan cheese served in our city, Philly's something of a dairy disciple's Shangri-La. Don't worship at any old cheese church-expand your mind and let Field Guide be your milk maharishi. The restrolounge, brassecafe, fusionateria Snackbar (253 S. 20th St. 215.545.5655) slings small plates for big bucks to Square dinner junkies. The cheese plate consists of sharp Canadian cheddar, pungent-but-creamy Bleu d'Auvergne and an Italian goat's milk caprino that rocks. Don't be a cheapskate-come watch the clotheshorses evermore. WADK Beneluxx (33 S. Third St., lower level. 215.413.1918) is a mad scientist's dream come tr...

The French filmmaker Christophe Barratier passed through Washington before being nominated Tuesday for two Academy Awards: as director of "The Chorus," itself a nominee for best foreign- language film, and as lyricist of a best-song candidate. Translated as "Look to Your Path," the song is one of six numbers Mr Barratier, a very youngish 40, and composer Bruno Colais created as choral anthems for the film, which celebrates an inspirational music teacher at a boys' orphanage and reformatory in the Auvergne in the late 1940s.

La vie de chateau. Life in a castle or, as we might call it, the life of Riley, in the Rhone-Alpes region of France. Castles transformed into wonderful hotels, restaurants serving delicious food and wine, charming villages, ancient towns, Roman ruins, a gentle landscape of rolling hills covered with vineyards, and valleys perfumed by lavender fields. What more could anyone ask? There's even a castle that has been turned into a wine university. The Rhone-Alpes extends from the vineyards of Burgundy in the north to the sunshine of Provence in the south; from the wild rolling hills of Auvergne in the west to the splendor of the towering Alps in the east.
Mahlerian depth, Brahmsian breadth Kirsten Lear has sung quite a bit of repertoire with the Santa Fe Symphony in the last seven years, from Aaron Copland's Old American Songs and Canteloube's Chants d'Auvergne to Mozart's Solemn Vespers of a Confessor, Handel's Messiah, and even Franz Lehar's operetta aria "Meine Lippen sie kssen so heiss." Now the mezzo-soprano, a northern New Mexico native, solos in one of the most glorious song cycles in the German repertoire: Gustav Mahler's Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen, usually translated as "Songs of a Wayfarer" but more accurately titled "Songs of a Traveling Apprentice.

Kirby explores what it was about France, and Paris in particular, that kept yanking him back. He only had eight days to do so, with a companion, and he had come to Paris over spring break, and they had to be back in the classroom the following Tuesday. But time, because it was brief, was on his side--in the past, he had luxuriated thoughtlessly in French volupte, and now he meant to use his handful of days to force himself to come up with some answers. In other words, he didn't have time to make mistakes.

Blaise Pascal (1623-1662) can be regarded as 'the first modern Christian.' He was the first to absorb the influence of Descartes and to formulate a Christian apologetics as a defense against rationalism. Pascal shares with Descartes a dualistic view of the human constitution. He is also modern is his observations on the human appetite for distraction. Pascal is, as T.S. Eliot has suggested, the Christian writer most to be recommended to those who doubt.
