Fifteen New York Times employees are ill after eating suspicious pasta salad from the paper's cafeteria. The Health Department has closed the dining room while it investigates whether the sick staffers got food poisoning there. "While we do not know if the cause is food-related, as a precaution, we are closing the cafeteria for the day," said a Times editor in an email to the New York Daily News. All sick employees are urged to come forward, so that the culprit can quickly be identified. The Gray Lady says its stomach pain sufferers are in fine condition, and getting better.
