Takedown: Jene blöden Deutschen!
Every once in a while, there is a day that the NYT op-ed page really shines. Today was not one of those days. Among the offerings this Thursday was a piece by Christoph Peters, a German author, giving what I’m going to guess is the mainstream view in Deutschland on Sen. Obama’s somewhat…

The adobe mission church of 53rd Street

Mets 10-Game Winning Streak
I thought the Mets had this game locked early on until the Reds took an 8-6 lead in the Bottom of the 7th. The Mets looked so flat in the 8th so I began to think that the winning streak was coming to an end. Jose Reyes struck out to begin the 9th Inning which wasn’t a good sign. All of a…
