A Taste of Old World Europe: Wiener Schnitzel

Wiener schnitzel—an unassuming breaded, fried veal cutlet—has so captured Vienna’s taste buds that it bears the city’s very name (Wien = Vienna). Yet Austria’s national dish may actually have originated in northern Italy as costoletta alla Milanese, a similarly prepared slice of veal.

Copycat Management: United Raises Elite Requirements To Match Delta

With airlines finally turning profits, we're seeing a lot of negative changes to frequent flyer programs, including in many cases a move to revenue based programs. United MileagePlus is one of the programs which has made the most tweaks over the past couple of years.

Or more accurately, I should say that Delta SkyMiles has been making changes, and United MileagePlus has been matching them.

So what has happened so far?
