Specifically, I left MSNBC.com last Friday after one last column, and after just 10 months back in New York, I&#8217;m headed West again.  I&#8217;ll become the wine editor at the San Francisco Chronicle at the end of the month.
For me, this is an [...]]]></description>

This was not a huge surprise to those who knew him; he had been in decline after a battle with cancer. But that doesn&#8217;t diminish the sense of loss. His talents were amazing, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So what to do when you’re in North Carolina for a few days with food on the brain?  Eat barbecue, barbecue and more barbecue, of course.

Frank Bruni finds a reason to really be annoyed with Woodside&#8217;s Sapori d&#8217;Ischia. Though we had found many (the marks of a pizza screen on a presumably wood-fired pizza, for one) the water thing seems to stick in his craw more than ours.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve stayed away from the crystal ball-gazing about who would possibly replace Pierre Rovani and Daniel Thomases after their departure from Robert Parker&#8217;s realm. It&#8217;s a fun parlor game for wine geeks with a keen eye for mastheads, but clearly the answer wasn&#8217;t going to be too long in the coming.
And it wasn&#8217;t. Parker has tapped [...]]]></description>
