- Joel Osteen and the Glory Story: A Case Study (Michael S. Horton, Westminster Seminary California)
- Bush's Determination and the Rule of Law (Harvey Mansfield, The Harvard Crimson)
- Justices Gone Wild (Ross Douthat, NY Times)
- Is anyone less fit to assess a presidency than the academic left? (Brothers Judd) The universe of less-fit assessors is surely small.
- Why inflation is so scary (Steven Malanga, RCM)
- Spent: America after consumerism (Amitai Etzioni, TNR)
- Liquidity drowns meaning of "inflation" (Henry C. Liu, Asia Times)
- It's the printing presses, stupid (Larry Kudlow, RCM)
- Love or lust, Obama and the fawning press need to get a room (Bronstein at Large)
- Obama's Conundrum: Shunning Iran's Opposition (Robert Kagan, WaPo)
- Just Make Stuff Up: President Obama's war on truth (Victor Davis Hanson, NRO)
- “Conservatives” Are Single-Largest Ideological Group (Lydia Saad, Gallup) We rock! :)
- Did Dietrich Bonhoeffer deserve to swing? (Brothers Judd)
- Hey kettle (Brothers Judd)
- More global warming skepticism (Unca Darrell) Somebody send those links to Eric Berger!
- Kurdistan goes glug glug (Economist)
- Iraqi Kurds begin oil exports (Al Jazeera News)
- Legendary French chef Albert Roux opens first U.S. restaurant (Edward Glazarev, NY Daily News) This is old news now, but it still strikes me as odd.
- Berlin’s Hidden Restaurants (Gisela Williams, NY Times)
- Neal Rosenthal, Lawyer, Wine Merchant, Writer (Reign of Terroir) I'm reading Rosenthal's book right now. I wish Houston had an old-world-focused wine shop where I might find more of his (and other natural) wines. Ah well. At least people who admit they don't drink wine are satisfied with the selection in town. *eyeroll*
- Are French ingredients better? (Food in Houston) High-end restaurants in the U.S. use ingredients comparable to high-end restaurants in France, I think. The real difference comes beneath that top layer of restaurants, and I think in terms of ingredients, the inexpensive French joint is going to blow away the inexpensive American joint, just like most any place serving gyros on a less-touristy Greek island is going to blow away the fare at Niko Nikos.
