On Comedy Central, he told Mr. Stewart: “What got me in trouble was using the word clean. I should have said fresh. What I meant was he’s got new ideas.”
Mr. Biden’s comments also focused new attention on remarks he made about Indians last year, when he said, “you cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking.”

US Air Works to Save Delta Bid - WSJ.com
Note:
US Airways Group Inc. is willing to increase its hostile takeover offer for Delta Air Lines Inc. by $1 billion under certain conditions as part of a last-ditch effort to win support from Delta creditors, according to people familiar with the matter.
The Tempe, Ariz., carrier said over the weekend that it would sweeten its $9.8 billion cash-and-stock bid to about $10.8 billion if the official committee of creditors approaches Delta with a demand that the Atlanta airline open itself to due diligence by US Airways, these people said. To get the additional $1 billion, all in cash, the committee also would have to ask a bankruptcy judge to postpone a hearing next week on Delta's restructuring plan, these people said. The group also would have to agree to support the start of a formal antitrust review.

San Francisco: Tartine Bakery - New York Times
Note:
In a city known for bakeries, bread and breakfasts, the scene just continues to get better. For whatever reason — gold miners ate big breakfasts? the hills build morning appetites? the sea air? — San Francisco has always had breakfast food worth traveling for. (The corned beef hash at Campton Place about 20 years ago was as interesting as any dinner entree served locally at the time.)
