Interested in world cultures and religions? Check out the LingNet Area Studies Page. It's run by the Defense Language Institute (DLI) in Monterey, so keep that in mind regarding possible bias. So far, I've found my reading to be fairly balanced and very informative. Another resource for you to increase your knowledge.
FWIW, the DLI also has some excellent online learning resources for your language studies.

I... love... this... sandwich, yeah!
In the 90's, I enjoyed Cuban sandwiches from a little restaurant in Hell's Kitchen. Since leaving New York, I've longed for a similar experience.
Thankfully, I've discovered banh mi thit nuong, a delicious Vietnamese baguette sandwich. My first exposure was in Outside Magazine, which mentioned "a crusty baguette piled with roasted port, pickled daikon radish, cliantro, hot peppers, cucumbers, and spiced mayonnaise...."
Ah, what a great sandwich, and at such a great price! I won't mention where I get mine, but hit your local Vietnamese deli and try this baby out!
