Dan Green, after rightfully discounting a reading of Flannery O'Connor by David Anderson, ends his brief essay with a lovely and timely note about style: Anderson's flip, and deeply misinformed, dismissal of O'Connor's style bothers me not just as it...

Benedict Brogan's blog features parts of an Evening Standard interview with Sally Bercow, wife of John, a Labour supporter and council candidate, who says: I don’t even want to send the children to the grammars in John’s constituency.

The much anticipated reopening of Genoa is happening December 1st, according to a press release I just received. The space is in the finishing stages. Executive Chef David Anderson spent a month traveling through Italy to gain inspiration, which in layman's terms means eating and drinking as much as he possibly could. The following is what was listed as a sample winter menu. A five course prix-fixe...

Another day, another feeble attack on the BBC by the Daily Mail. This morning, this particular story was third on the Mail's website, suggesting that there are only two more important stories around.

Thanksgiving is this week. Time to clear out the leftover stalks from the harvest. All those dried leaves from the NJ and VA gov races and the NY-23 congressional race... And the pods from the NYC mayoral (by the way, the final count including paper ballots is 150,000 votes on the Independence Party line). Do we pile them up, burn the field, or mulch and wait? Some of the most interesting things in...

The " Brian Cushing of the Offense ," if you will? Vote in the...
