		Bleak, the children and the horse at a quiet soda-fountain in the suburbs.
		Bleak was too scholarly, too aloof, too cold-blooded: that his interest in booze was merely philosophical, that he would be incompetent to deal with the practical problems of actual drinking: that he would surround himself with drinks that would be mere puppets, subservient entirely to his own purposes.
		Bleak would conduct next door to the little temple which was to be erected by the government for the successful candidate.

	FIFA Street Review for PlayStation 2 - Gaming Age
		Unfortunately, FIFA Street is not the title to bring soccer to the greater masses; it only insults those who enjoy the sport.
		FIFA Street adds enough extras to keep interest levels at simmering pace, but do not expect too much depth or complexity, especially since this is the series’ first go round.
		In the end, FIFA Street is not the worst effort put on paper, but you have to wonder if the idea to bring soccer to the urban environment was trying a good thing too many times.

		Bleak House is a satirical look at the Byzantine legal system in London as it consumes the minds and talents of the greedy and nearly destroys the lives of innocents--a contemporary tale indeed.
		Bleak House is such a natural for audio that it comes as no surprise to read in Peter Ackroyd's biography of Dickens that he himself read it aloud to Wilkie Collins and his own family.
		BLEAK HOUSE is first and foremost the story of a lawsuit over the contents of a will and the effects of the drawn-out proceedings on the parties involved.

		At the same time, though, he delved into street culture and flirted with danger, such experiences similarly characterizing his rhymes.

	As real estate prices soar, Walnut Street faces another life change

		For people who lived in Shadyside shortly after the turn of the century, Walnut was a place where you could get a quart of milk, a pound of chipped ham, a loaf of bread and a cup of ice cream with a teaspoon of chocolate drizzled on top.
		The street was bleak and full of old, dingy shops, said Crisanti, 68, who grew up in a house at Walnut and Bellefonte streets.

	Bleak House by Charles Dickens: Chapter 10
		So now, in Cook’s Court, Cursitor Street, Mr Snagsby and the niece are one; and the niece still cherishes her figure — which, however tastes may differ, is unquestionably so far precious, that there is mighty little of it.
		She believes the little drawing-room upstairs, always kept, as one may say, with its hair in papers and its pinafore on, to be the most elegant apartment in Christendom.
		The view it commands of Cook’s Court at one end (not to mention a squint into Cursitor Street), and of Coavinses’ the sheriff’s officer’s backyard at the other, she regards as a prospect of unequalled beauty.

		Nearby, the city's Little Canada section, along and near Merrimack Street east of the river, is filled with scenes from Kerouac's life (and death), and is well worth visiting.

	Is Licensing Street Performers A Good Solution? \| Planetizen
		Would a city ordinance that regulates the bleak street performing scene in the City of Baltimore be an impetus for its growth and enliven the city streets?
		The council believes that by regulating the scene, the performers would be immune to police harassment, and the overseeing board would be able to spread the entertainers throughout the city, allowing them to thrive.
		Others, including current Baltimore buskers, believe that with so few of them on the streets now, it would be an unnecessary intrusion and would push performers from the streets.

		A quantity of straw has been tumbled down in the street to deaden the noises there, and she might be driven to the door perhaps without his hearing wheels.
		The gloom augments; the bright gas springs up in the streets; and the pertinacious oil lamps which yet hold their ground there, with their source of life half frozen and half thawed, twinkle gaspingly, like fiery fish out of water—as they are.
		The carriages in the streets are few, and other late sounds in that neighbourhood there are none, unless a man so very nomadically drunk as to stray into the frigid zone goes brawling and bellowing along the pavement.
