 Martini cocktail   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The ingredients are chilled, either by stirring or shaking, then strained and served "straight up" (without ice) in a chilled cocktail glass, and garnished with either an olive or a twist (a strip of lemon peel, usually squeezed or twisted to express volatile citric oils onto the surface of the drink).
The Martini was an established American cocktail at the beginning of the 20th century, but did not attain its pre-eminent status as the classic cocktail until later in the century.
Sometimes the term "Martini" is used to refer to other mostly-hard-liquor cocktails such as Manhattans, Cosmopolitans, and ad-hoc or local conconctions whose only commonality with the drink is the cocktail glass in which they are served.

But Montgomery soon tired of being typecast, and by the mid-1930's was constantly battling with studio bosses to be allowed to play more challenging roles.
As Montgomery recalled, "they okayed my playing in it because they thought the fan reaction to me, in such a role, would humiliate me." Montgomery also put his money where his mouth was - he agreed to subsidize part of the cost of the film.
Montgomery went back to romantic comedies, but he was becoming increasingly independent.

 The Grill Next Door
But as for the food, well, the grilled calamari was inedible, a jumbo shrimp cocktail was measly and flaccid, and the grilled half-chicken was dried out.
The calamari ($8) this time was quickly grilled to just the right bite, and although I didn't love it with the horseradish-spiked cocktail sauce that came on the side, that sauce worked just fine with the shrimp cocktail ($12) that now consisted of four truly jumbo, firm shrimp.
Perhaps some of the rumblings from the locals that I've heard consistently, that Montgomery Grill is a shade too expensive for a neighborhood spot, are being heard.

 Fairly obvious assumption credited to women's intuition
Sioux Falls, S.D. Sources report that women's intuition received credit for what appeared to be nothing more than a fairly obvious assumption last week, when local cocktail waitress Kimberly Talaski correctly identified a telephone caller as being her boyfriend's ex-girlfriend.
Neighbor Trent Montgomery says both he and Talaski witnessed Blake Andrews, Talaski's boyfriend of three years, casually answer his telephone on the evening of April 28.
When questioned by Montgomery, Talaski is said to have credited her theory to "women's intuition," a popular urban myth.

It was here, down the staircase to the great ballroom of the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel, that Hope Montgomery, in ballgown and elbow-length white kid gloves, made her entrance as a debutante in 1922.
The daughter of Colonel Robert Montgomery, head of a wealthy and ancient Philadelphia family, she immediately made an impact.
As her biographer, Robert Lacey, observes, she "was an outsider, an excluded observer of a world that was held to be the ultimate in terms of class and privilege - which may be one reason why she made such a good job of mimicking the style and customs of that world in her later life".

Tim Montgomery, the world 100 metres record holder, may have used a cocktail of banned drugs, including human growth hormones and the blood-boosting agent erythropoietin, the US Anti-Doping Agency has alleged.
The allegations, which are much more extensive than previously reported, are made in a nine-page letter sent to Montgomery this month by the agency, setting out allegations that he was involved in doping as long ago as 2000, two years before he set the record.
The agency also said in the letter - published in the Los Angeles Times - that it "anticipates testimony" from an unnamed source regarding Montgomery's "admitted use of the 'clear' ", allegedly the code name for the designer anabolic steroid tetrahydrogestrinone made by the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative in San Francisco.
