I hope you're all watching the world unfold on Al Jazeera. It puts our news media to shame.

Reverend Manny: It was a pro-democracy "day of departure" in Egypt yesterday. But, with Obama's blessing, will Mubarak just be replaced by a different tyrant?

P.M. Carpenter: As the crisis in Egypt rages, no one's listening to America anymore. Is that good or bad?

Pisani Canadian Adventures: Obama met Canadian PM Harper. Not that Americans were paying any attention.

South by Southwest: Vilsack and Sebelius released new nutritional guidelines this past week. It's about time for the low-salt future.

And over at The Garlic: Go away, Rummy. Farewell, Maria Schneider.
