Elsewhere:

1) Steve Pearlstein gives away all our tricks.

2) An economic analysis of over-the-top wine reviews.

3) I have a blog post to write about this graph tomorrow.

4) "While Walker argues that his budget-repair legislation must be passed soon to avoid job cuts, the most controversial parts of his bill would have no immediate effect."

5) This is a good time to reread Chris Hayes's wonderful essay, "In Search of Solidarity."

Who will go home on "Top Chef" tonight?
