Eating Extinct Animals: Feast wins Food Book of the Year
Wed, 18 Jun 2008 01:07:17 PDT
All of us at OUP UK are thrilled that Feast: Why Humans Share Food won the Food Book of the Year Award at this year’s Guild of Food Writers Awards in London last week. Author Martin Jones has kindly written a blog for us, telling us all about how even at the ceremony he could trace the eating trends he discusses in his prize-winning book. After receiving my Food Book of the Year award from Prue Leith at London’s Tamesa Restaurant last Thursday, I suggested that Feast: Why Humans Share Food
The Employee Free Choice (?) Act
Wed, 18 Jun 2008 05:08:52 PDT
HR pro Kris Dunn raises a bright red flag with his informative article on a little-known but potentially chilling piece of legislation cleverly called The Employee Free Choice Act. Kris' intro: "This piece of legislation would cripple the competitiveness of American business, limit the rights of employees and eliminate the need for independent-thinking HR pros, all in one easy-to-sign law."

"Pretty soon we'll have to fly naked!" The mass media rapidly embraced the UK terror storyline fed to them. The BBC, CNN, CBC Newsworld and other all-news broadcasters covered scarcely anything but the narrowly averted catastrophe throughout the day. Funny thing, but the general public wasn't buying it. The reaction was surprisingly cynical...

Bush: I’m the Reader.
Wed, 18 Jun 2008 04:41:05 PDT
Bush: I’m the Reader. The NYT’s Paper Cuts blog has a snippet from a recent press conference where the Prez talks about how much he loves to read. He’s never even seen TV’s The West Wing. He told you he was hardcore. The episode reminded me of an interview that Bush had with NBC’s Brian Williams a few years back. The scene: the Administration has completely blown the response to Hurricane Katrina and the aftermath. The Oval Office has just released a list of books the President has rece
