  • Did you know Obama’s chief staffer on Jewish affairs used to live with Clinton’s chief Jew? [JTA]
  • Jewlicious looks at accusations of antisemitism at the University of California–Irvine, debating whether UCI’s conference on Sephardic Judaism this Friday is academia as usual, or a half-assed way to say “See, we like Jews!”

  • A non-Jewish San Francisco man tried to sell a Nazi medallion made from the gold teeth of Holocaust victims on Craigslist for $10,000 [j.]
  • The LA Jewish Journal’s blog runs a nearly 500-word story about going to the grocery store and saving $24. Why? [Jewlyweds]
