Happy rainy Monday! Your editor has returned from Istanbul, where she stuffed herself with baklava and kofte and only managed to get tear-gassed twice (more of an accomplishment than it sounds like). Big thanks to the eminently hireable Jay Barmann for manning the ship well for the past week and a half. We now return to your regularly scheduled programming. Won't you brighten the post-vacation blues with a tip?
