Try this Pesto Pasta dish! It looks so delish!
Ripe cherry tomatoes and fresh basil add zing to a classic sauce and turn this simple dish into a savory meal.

Every July, I buy a new academic planner so I can keep track of all my meetings and appointments. However, I'm never super happy with the choices of covers that are out there. So, I decided to make my own.

There's nothing racist about opposing the president
David Harsanyi | September 16, 2009
C'mon, everyone knows the hullabaloo surrounding President Barack Obama is bigotry in action. The administration's policy initiatives couldn't possibly provoke any authentic anger or protest.
Proving this dastardly motive, on the other hand, has been problematic.

Media Malpractice: Tom Brokow's World Implodes
By Jeffrey Lord on 9.15.09 @ 6:08AM
Tom Brokaw.
With the passing of Walter Cronkite, Mr. Brokaw is considered perhaps the new "dean" of journalism. As such the former NBC News anchor is periodically summoned forth to assess the current world, an occasion that presented itself recently on the venerable NBC Sunday newser Meet the Press.

In a July 14 news release the “Honolulu Community Media Council” (HCMC) denounces Accuracy In Media and the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review for “shoddy journalism and smear tactics.” HCMC, headed by Chris Conybeare of the University of Hawaii, “finds” that “there is no substance to the claim” that “Frank Marshall Davis was a lifelong Communist and a mentor to (presidential candidate Barack) Obama.”
Conybeare may be hoping that nobody else knowing the post-WW II history of Hawaii is willing to talk. Davis, it turns out, was just one member of a network whose works continue to exert influence to this day.
Connecting the Dots
A faculty member of the UH-West Oahu Center for Labor Education and Research (CLEAR), Conybeare is producer of a many-part PBS series on the history of labor organizing in Hawaii, focusing on the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU).

1/ Amanjena, Morocco
Nestled at the edge of Marrakech against the breathtaking backdrop of the Atlas mountains, Amanjena is a celeb favourite, with A-listers including Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, Sienna Miller and Posh and Becks on its list of high-profile clients. And it's easy to see why – the resort's stunning ancient Moorish design, beautifully decorated dome-ceiling bedrooms and indulgent spa make for a luxurious getaway.
A beautiful and private address stretching leisurely through spacious grounds in the ever popular city of Marrakech and located a short drive from the fever pitch excitement of Djemaa El Fna.

Sharia continues to strangle free speech
By Diana West
COPENHAGEN, Denmark — I am being patted down by a female Danish security officer in the basement of the parliament building in Copenhagen and I have a thought. I have just triggered the metal detector — my heels, I'm sure — en route upstairs to the Landstingssalen, formerly the parliament's upper house. There, I am scheduled to deliver a speech at the invitation of the Danish Free Press Society, or Trykkefrihedsselskabet.

Commentary by William Pesek
June 17 (Bloomberg) -- It’s a plot better suited for a John Le Carre novel.
Two Japanese men are detained in Italy after allegedly attempting to take $134 billion worth of U.S. bonds over the border into Switzerland.

I was so glad to see the shorts again this year. It makes the ceremony so much more interesting when I know everything I can about all the nominees. Interesting fact about all the animated selections this year- there’s not a single word of dialogue amongst them.
