Kid Approved Healthy Meal Plan
Today's meal ideas came from my kids mouths themselves. I asked each one what their favorite foods were to compile a week of their favorite meals. Then I got online to research "healthier versions" of their favorite foods. It's almost embarrassing how they came up with typical kid junk-fare. I remind them they are supposed to be the "Super Healthy Kids". They are supposed to be an example to children all over the world that they love to eat healthy foods." Nate, my 11 year old smart aleck, said, "Tell your readers my favorite breakfast food is candy."
So, in purple is what my kids asked for, and below it, what we are really going to eat. I love being the mom!

GENESIS WORLD MISSION INC Overview
Target demographics: In Boise, we serve people with no health insurance whose household income is less than twice the Federal Poverty Guidelines. For a family of 4, that's about $42,000.
Direct beneficiaries per year: Close to 1800
Someone who had 3 hours of volunteer time could: Provide healthcare services to 30 patients (commensurate with healthcare background)
Geographic areas served: Ada County Idaho, Canyon County Idaho, Kenya
Programs: Garden City Community Clinic (GCCC): an integrated medical home, focuses on the holistic healing and restoring health to low-income, uninsured patients by teaching and empowering them to develop healthy life sustaining habits. All services are provided by volunteer health care professionals from throughout the community. Care includes treatment of acute non-emergent and limited chronic illnesses, medications, and referrals for specialty care. On-site basic dental services, dietitian consultations and social work visits are also offered, as well as limited mental health counseling. Volunteers apply for free medications from drug manufacturers on behalf of patients
Volunteer Physicians Network: VPN works to improve the overall health of lower-income, uninsured patients by increasing charitable access and coordination of specialty care and spreading it out among the Treasure Valley physician community. This is a referral network of specialty physicians, labs and hospitals who've agreed to donate medical care to patients of three Ada County safety-net clinics: Family Practice Medical Center, Terry Reilly Health Services-Boise, and GCCC. They provide primary health care and depend on specialty consultations, procedures, and/or surgery to provide a continuity of care for eligible patients.
Genesis International (GWMI): GWMI provides leadership, coordination and encouragement to sustain human health services through local and international partnerships in under-served countries. Currently, services are focused on two projects in Kenya. The first is the PEFA Mercy Medical Centre, a primary care medical home in rural Ndumberi, located outside of Nairobi. It has operated since 2007 and sees upwards of 60 patients a day, 6 days a week. Services are provided at a rate that the middle and poverty class can access. Dental services are also available.
A new project in Mombassa, along the coast, is aimed at coordinating "pocket sized" health centers and other human health services in conjunction with Touch Africa. This project is still in its investigational phase.

Smile Dog (humanized) X reader (the fang)
You reach in the bag to feel sothing smooth but pointed on the edge, you pull it out to be surpiced to see a small fang laying in the palm of your hand. "Let me go get dog boy" I say and walk off to find him. "you watch me confused, but are in shock to see me come back with a boy with pointed ears and a tail. He was cute but kinda freaky with his claws and large fangs showing. "_______ this is Smile, Smile this is _______! Now lets get this show on the road!" I say pushing you both into the closet. "Time Starts, NOW!" I yell then leave you both in the darkness of the closet.
It was pitch black inside the closet the only thing you could see was Smiles eyes glimer off the tiny bit of light that came from the bottem of the closet. Then you heard a slight tapping noise. It was smile tapping his claws against each other. Just then You could feel smile jump up and oush you against the wall licking your face, much like a dog would. It made you giggle. "H-hey! Stop, down boy" You said laughing softly.
The licking went from the top of your forhead slowly down to your mouth to where you and smile were soon in the middle of a making out. Smile softly pulled you to the ground and leaned over top of you only breaking the kiss to breath in for air for a few short seconds. after a few minutes Smiles jumps off. "Donna's gonna open the door soon..." he said fixing you and his clothes. Just as your done I open the door. "Have fun?" I say seeing your hair in a mess. Just then Smile grabs your arm and runs up to his room.
The Rest Is up to you!
Who do you want to see next?

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
My main is a hard core collector (182 and counting) so he has an addon that cycles through about fifteen of the rarer ones or personal favorites. Dragon Kite, Rocket Chicken, Celestial Dragon, Searing Scorchling, Moonkin Hatchling, Lashtail Hatchling, and so on.
But my alts generally keep one specific one. My paladin is all blue and gold and looks like she wishes she were in the alliance, so she keeps a Gryphon Hatchling. My DK is a big tough guy, so he has Deathy. My druid is a druid, so he has the Moonkin Hatchling. And for some reason I feel quirky with my shaman, her being a goblin, so she has Speedy.

1510 Mt. Hope Avenue P.O. Box 270001 Rochester, New York 14627-0001
Officially called Standard (A) mail by the United States Postal Service (USPS), bulk mail isn't just "a lot of mail". It is an official classification of mail that meets specific requirements to qualify for discounted rates. Rates are dependent on content, size, shape, weight, Zip code, and quantity.
There are two types of Standard (A) mail, Regular (commercial) and Nonprofit. Except for certain content restrictions, both kinds are virtually identical, with Nonprofit rates being about 40% lower than their commercial counterparts. The University is eligible to send most of its mass mailings at Nonprofit rates.
There is a third kind of bulk mail, Presorted First-Class which is a discounted mailing but with First-Class service. Postage is significantly higher than Standard (A) and content and preparation can be much different as well. In most cases Presorted First-Class is delivered faster than Standard (A) mail, but locally they there is virtually no difference.
Bulk mail is the least expensive method of sending mail. The average Nonprofit letter can be mailed for approximately $0.18 instead of the First-Class price of $0.46. The following specifications must be met for items to be mailed at bulk mail rates:
Just because it is being mailed from the UR doesn't mean every mass mailing can automatically use Nonprofit rates. Mailings cannot contain details (prices, destinations, payment plans, specific vendors) for travel, financial instruments (credit cards), or insurance. Also, it cannot contain personal information such as grades, medical results, billing details, or other person-specific details. You can personalize the mailing (Dear John, Dear Mary, and address) without violating the personal information rule.
For any mailing that uses postage discounts (Presorted First-Class, Standard A, Standard A Nonprofit) the USPS requires that the mailing list be processed by certified software that is updated on a regular basis. This computer program checks the addresses of the mailing list and compares them to the USPS's own database to make sure that the address actually exists. It does this by seeing if the named street has the specific house number, in that city, state and Zip code. Many simple typos are fixed this way. In addition, the mailing list is also compared to the National Change of Address (NCOA) database to see if any of the addresses have a forwarding order in effect. Using the updated address is also a postal requirement.
Database processing also allows addresses to be grouped by distribution locations (not necessarily in Zip code order) making mail processing, and receiving postage discounts, much easier.
Data Files: Mail Services can accept a number of file formats but Excel is by far the best and easiest to work with. However, other options including ASCII or Word tables, *.csv files, or comma delimited text are also acceptable. Data should be in tables with headings (FNAME, LNAME, ADDRESS1, etc.) rather than in a label format.
De-duping Lists: Specialized mailing software is used to help merge different mailing lists into a single combined one and eliminate duplicate addresses and recipients. This can help reduce the amount of materials that need to be purchased and printed, as well as the amount of postage to be paid.
Onsite printing has been increasingly important as personalized contents of mailings have become more common. Being able to print the inserts in the exact quantity, and in the same order as the outer envelope, allows for a more secure and economical process. Also, printing/copying does not need to begin until after the database is processed so that only the exact amount of material is produced, reducing waste and expense. Printing on-site also shortens the turnaround time by allowing additional processing, such as folding and inserting, to begin as soon as the first printed pieces leave the printer.
Word Merge/Variable Data Printing: Personalizing mail pieces is an excellent way to increase the success of a mailing. Variable data can be added to fixed text to create custom content for every recipient. Some examples are as simple as adding "Dear John" or "Dear Mary" instead of "Dear Prospective Donor". Mail merge programs are used to create letters, pledge cards, and business reply mail. Other examples could include switching out entire paragraphs of content depending on who will get that letter. Personalized URLs, QR codes or images can also be added to the outer envelope.
Color Printing: Color printing is available to add interest to the content of the mailings as well as to improve the appearance of the outer envelope. High quality digital images in many formats are acceptable with excellent results.
Once the address list has been cleaned-up, processed, and formatted, it is uploaded to the production labeling machines where addresses are printed directly onto the mailpiece. Up to 10,000 pieces per hour can be addressed using scores of different fonts. Any True Type font used in the mailpiece design can be uploaded to the printer to provide a cohesive, unified look even in the address block.
Generally speaking, the maximum size mailpiece that can go through the production labeler is 12"wide and ¼" thick, but length is rarely an issue. All items must be of uniform thickness.
Address Block: At minimum, an area of at least 2" high x 4" long should be reserved for printing the delivery address. Anything smaller and not all of the address can be printed, or it will be too small to be read. The address block should also have a white background, be free of images and uncoated.
Fonts: Our labelers can print with scores of fonts, but keep in mind that addresses need to be able to be read by the USPS sorting equipment. Cursive or script fonts are very difficult to read so should be avoided because they can result in higher postage costs, longer delivery times, and higher Return to Sender rates.
Contrast: Postal equipment needs to be able to read the address for it to be delivered, so it should have a high contrast against the background color. Mail Services uses black ink to print addresses so a white or very light background is recommended. We have no source for white ink to print against a black or dark colored-background.
Adhesive Labels: Adhesive labels are sometimes necessary,
but usually only when:
a) the item is so glossy that ink won't stick to the surface;
b) the mailpiece is enclosed in shrink wrap;
c) the size, thickness, or shape of the item won't allow it to fit through the envelope feeder; or,
d) the mailing address can't be seen against the printed background.
Processing costs are significantly higher than printing the address directly onto the mailpiece.
Items are generally folded to be inserted into envelopes, or to become self-mailers. Folding is a very basic service, but, done wrong, can lead to considerable expense and delays. The main issue involves where the folds are placed.
Inserts: Items folded in such a way that when they fed into the inserter or labeler they are not pulled open or crushed. Therefore, the fold should be on the leading edge (the first part of the mailpiece to go into a feeder). Half-folds and "C"-folds work very well. Accordion or "Z"-folds, have an open leading edge (with a fold and an extra flap) and get pulled open by the rubber feeder rollers. Other types of folds may make hand-inserting necessary which will increase processing costs and extend the turnaround time.
Tabs, also called wafer seals, are used to keep self-mailers or booklets closed while they travel through the mail stream. The exact quantity and placement of tabs is strictly defined by the USPS. Self-mailers have different tabbing requirements than booklets, which generally require more wafer seals. Tabs can help lower postage costs, but sometimes the cost of applying the tabs is more than the postage savings, so work with our bulk mail staff to decide which tabbing options are right for you and your budget.
Self-Mailers: There is more leeway for how self-mailers are folded, but the USPS does provide incentives for having the fold on the bottom. Many folded self-mailers need to be held closed by tabs or wafer seals. This is to keep the mailpiece from opening up while being processed on the Postal Services processing equipment. By following USPS guidelines and creating self-mailers with a single fold at the bottom of the mailpiece, fewer tabs need to be used to keep the item closed. And the less tabs used, the lower the processing cost.

'The two-story concrete wall that lines the open-riser stairway absorbs heat in the winter ..'. And from someone who has lived in a concrete structure, winters are going to be VERY cold in this house and will require much, much more heat than a drywalled home to keep it at a comfortable temp in winter.
And to blend seemlessly it would have to dug into the earth. A great example of our further encroachment into what was a pristine natural area now divided into private properties.
Blend in? How about perched upon. And on stilts no less. (I do like the view of the other homes in the foreground).
"Blend in" would/should be 'to make inobtrusive' to anyone and still present the highlight views the owner is looking for.
Perhaps with better photographs we could agree that this house does what it has been presented as doing but, I'm sorry, there are better examples of naturalizing a home to its surroundings and creating dramatic views.

Our Ask Tony and Tucker question comes from Andy. He wants to know, "Instead of having Tony sound a ceremonial trumpet by saying "Do, do, do, DOOOO," has anyone asked the production staff for a "high-speed" sound effect to announce the BEST part of Fox 5 morning news? (The BEST part being the "Ask Tony and Tucker" segment!) Can we get a real trumpet to sound before the segment?"

"This pub is a little off the beaten track on the way to Russell Square and Southampton Row." in 10 reviews
"The bar is well stocked and it was good to see Leffe on tap." in 5 reviews
"Prices are very reasonable at something like £3.75 per pint." in 7 reviews
This pub is a little off the beaten track on the way to Russell Square and Southampton Row. Its pretty small inside and has a nice seating area outside that tends to get pretty busy.
The food there's a pretty good menu that does a good range of sandwiches and mains. The mains are good sized, a little bit more expensive than neighbouring pubs but better quality in my opinion.
The beer not a great deal for the real ale fans, and the drinks are in my opinion, pretty expensive. This is probably something to do with the location as it is on the tourist trail into town.
The atmosphere homely is a good word. Its pretty small inside and the toilets are a bit of a trek. Its doggy friendly the landlady's pooches are cute. There is no Sky Sports. Staff are friendly and polite and do good recommendations.
Its a place that if you stumble across it is perfectly nice, and is worth calling in, but if you are watching the pennies it is a little on the pricey side
This was our stop number three on the crawl that night.
I never went indoors so I cannot say anything about the interior though.
Decent selection of draughts.
We sat outside - nice. And just share a table if it's full. When we sat there street musicians stopped and played a few songs, then moved on after tippings.
Yeah, I could go there again.
Just off the beaten track south of Euston north of Holborn. This is a quiet little pub with outside seating and a nice atmosphere. It gets a good blend of punters. Not a great choice of ales.
The toilets are a trek into the cellar for the gents. No idea what the food is like.
5 Stars for all the other things people have been saying. I went there twice tho'. First time was excellent. The lady behind the bar was great, good beer, warm on a cold night - all that good stuff.
Second time a guy was bar-tending - seems to be anti-American, made a totally unnecessary fuss about paying by credit card - there is a 10 pound minimum, and it is posted - fair enough, but my tab was about 8.5 pounds. Told I couldn't use my credit card. So I rounded up with a tip to 10 pounds, and got hassled (muttering about 'yanks')???? What is with that? The creep kept the tip tho'.
Let's hope this idiot does away. If you are an American, try to get served by the cheery lady.
As an American tourist, no one has every told me about some of the more unusual differences in etiquette -- especially in pubs. It seems that tipping is not usual here.
I go to the Queen's Larder my second day, order a pint of beer for about 3.50, hand the barman Dave a five-pound note. He gives me the change, and I put the one-pound coin on the bar. He says slowly, solemnly: "Thank you very much, Sir, thank you indeed. That is most kind of you." I knew I had done something to offend him -- he ignored me for the next hour until I left.
OK, so tipping is not usual in pubs, OK. But shouldn't a barman know that tourists don't know UK pub customs, and take it in stride? After that near-hostile reaction to an innocent, misguided tip, I am not going back to the QL again, even if other barman (Andrew, the friendly, personable one) is working.
The Queens Larder is adorable! Wowsers! Cute, tiny and oh-so-charming, this pub really is old-school London at it's best. Good staff who know their lagers from their ales, and a good non-pretentious crowd.
Love it!
Great beer selection, fantastic & comfy atmosphere, and Andrew is a very pleasant barman.
Squeeze into one of the tables on the bottom floor or hop up to the lounge on the second floor for some extra space. Either way it's a very comfortable pub where one can feel right at home.
Prices are very reasonable at something like £3.75 per pint. We had a blast!
Yep, the rest of these reviews are spot on.
Lovely little place (and it is tiny) but we had a quick lunch here and enjoyed it greatly. MK had the Bacon/Cheese Pie (turnover for you Americans) and I, the bangers and mash with onion gravy. Couple of nice beers and great Christmas decorations.
I like the area it's it too. Just around the corner its a bit crazy-busy but since this faces Queen's Square its super quiet and peaceful.
Most definitely a stop here the next time we're back.
Nice, little pub, really traditional and can easily be the lunch stop on a surprisingly charming walk through Holborn. There's two parts to this place - the main bar area downstairs and the restaurant upstairs, which has a great view over the square. The staff are good here and the crowd are pretty mixed, tourists inevitably, hospital staff inevitably and locals occasionally. They've got Green King on draught which isn't great in my book but they've got Leffe and plenty of others too.
Haven't had the grub but it looks good enough and I'd say this pub is definitely one of the better ones round this way.
A really charming pub close to the West End on a quiet street between Russell Square and Holborn tube stations. The pub is named after Queen Charlotte, wife of the 'Mad King' George III, who kept supplies for him in a cellar underneath the pub while he was being treated for insanity by a doctor in the square.
The dining room upstairs is very charming, and full of posters from the West End like the rest of the pub. There was a large group who came here for food and drinks after work besides our table, and they certainly enjoyed their food while we tried the lovely house wine and lagers (including Leffe blond!). There are even some benches outside where you can enjoy the sunny weather in the summer, in the not too windy square.
A gem as its so close to the tube stations, but hidden away on a quiet street!
This is my absolute new favourite number one pub. It's absolutely tiny and although it fillls up quickly and easily, it's pretty easy to squeeze in somewhere. It really revs up for Christmas filling every space with decorations and playing festive tunes on repeat. Sort of sounds like hell but it was actually a surprisingly fun place to settle in for a friendly chat. The beers are pretty standard and normal priced although they do have Leffe too.
The best thing about this pub is the local almost country atmosphere despite its location bang in the centre of town. It's really hidden but surprisingly easy to get to.
The Queens Larder is a charming little pub close to Russell Square and also the Great Ormond Street Hospital and a Neuroscience institute. Though it is beside Kingsway road it seems secluded and quiet. The ground floor is a handsome bar and there is an attractive dining room upstairs with views of Cosmo square. There are also benches outside which are a picturesque place to sit in the summer months. The bar is well-stocked and the service is friendly.
This pub has a lovely friendly atmosphere and is ideal if you are looking for a quiet place in Central London for a drink or something more substantial.
Went here for after work drinks with friends, and have to say we quite liked it. Cute little place with indoor and outdoor seating and homey vibe. Hoegaarden and Leffe on tap as well as some other ales, definitely a decent selection. Indoor and outdoor seating area, inside cute little benches and corner tables to sit and chat, although the inside did have a rather strong 'old beer' smell, a little of which i don't mind but it was rather sour.
Didn't love the TV that was on, on mute but still distracting! It's one of the things I have come to love so much about pubs, that there is no TV flickering in the background while you have a pint and talk to your friends. Just no need, really!
Definitely a decent little place but could lose the TV!
A new entry in the Top 5! Best ploughman's in town
I wrote this review some time ago after quite a long, boozey lunch in the Queen's Larder (is that a euphemism?) and decided that it was probably drunken nonsense and best not to post it. Having re-read it, and revisited the pub many times I've decided to post it anyway! There is not a word of a lie, not a single exaggeration in the following review. One of the best pubs in London!
I don't know how often you go to a restaurant or pub, or meet a new friend that you just love SO much that you want to tell everyone you know about it. But what then?! All of a sudden everyone knows about your new favourite place, everyone wants to hang out there, it gets busy, the place tarnishes, it's no longer special, and beautiful and ALL YOUR VERY OWN! So, Phil and I don't really talk to each other any more.
On a less creepy note, The Queens Larder is much like my former-friend Phil.
Quite simply, it's perfect. Tucked away off Southampton Row, Queen's Square is like the Secret Garden, just with out any locked doors or creepy Franciscine boys conversing with robins a little haven of peace and tranquillity, flowers and trees, complete with market squarette and the wrought iron gated Queen's Square Gardens. Seriously, if Peter Pan had been a little less ambitious he could well have ended up by here instead. And, by Zeus's beard! Is that a Green King boozer I spy?!
Now, you may have realised from the timbre of my musings (and by my use of the word timbre) that I have just been enjoying a rather lengthy and boozy lunch there. As a consequence I am in much trouble at work (despite a LARGE box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts to apologise for my late return and the delicate bouquet of ale and pickled onions I brought along) but I would gladly suffer the indignity all over again for the pleasure of sitting outside this charming old town boozer, in the sunshine, with the best Ploughman's I have had in a long time, a good pint or two of Green King's finest, and a facefull of sunshine.
On to some less abstract information to drink. There is the standard selection of lagers, cider, etc plus a couple of Belgium poncy beers. Most important, there are three Green King cask beers (both the IPA and Sunchaser are top drawer) and a wine list which no pub should be ashamed to have (though I can see the wine bar brigade's heckles bristling slightly)
The food menu is to die for! I know this is a subject on which I have moaned before but there are so few pubs where you can go these days and have a proper pub lunch. I'm talking Ploughman's, a proper Club Sandwich, pie and mash, a huge array of sandwiches which revolve largely around cheese and/or cold meats. Having seen a laden plate making it's way to a neighbouring table my friends and I all went for a Ploughman's, though for sake of variety we ordered one of each ham, stilton, cheddar & brie. I also ordered a bowl of chips.
Although it wasn't the most rapid service in the world, I don't mind! There were plenty of other diners, and the food was evidently carefully prepared and beautifully presented. I'm impressed at their ability to pile so much food onto one plate with out it looking like well, a pile of food! The ham, home cooked, cut thick as y'tongue, delicious, juicy and flavoursome. The cheese was served in huge, door wedge chucks, mature, at the right temperature, just as it should be! All this was accompanied by pickled onions, pickled gherkins, a hard boiled egg, a generous helping of salad, discretely dressed, creamy soft butter, sweet pickle, a hot apple pie (move over sliced-of-Brabourne! You're old news) and generous slices of fresh, crusty bread. I don't think that any one touched the chips. There was just no need.
Cute little place but seems to cater entirely to the relatively large number of American tourists staying nearby. Poor ale selection (this is a Greene King pub). Service was neither friendly nor fast.
Nice surprise just off the beaten path.
Loved it! Great neighborhood pub in Bloomsbury. I agree with another reviewer who mentions that even when crowded, there is a place to squeeze in somewhere. The atmosphere is pleasant and the crowd is friendly!
Spent Christmas Eve here. Everyone was welcoming and in a great location.
Nice little pub with quite a few tables outside so it's great for those sunny summer afternoons when you want a drink outside in the sun.
Nice local atmosphere in the heart of Bloomsbury. Medics, students and tourists mingle in the small bar and forecourt and a convivial occasion is practically guaranteed. Hoegaarden, Old Speckled Hen and Greene King should satisfy the ale buffs; Carling for the merely thirsty. Lunchtime food stretches neither imagination nor wallet but fills a gap. Check out the clowns at the bar and, no this does not refer to the friendly bar staff
A nice little boozer frequented by a curious mix of (remarkably wealthy) locals and tourists. A good selection of beers and a more than adequate bar menu, this pub would receive a higher rating, were it not for the slightly standoffish service.
Nice pint of Guinness, sit outside and no traffic roaring past.
Needed a pint before dinner and it was a mild evening in mid-May. It delivered 100%. I would have given it 5 stars but the bitter selection was a bit weak. We opted for London Glory which was fine and served properly. Staff are very friendly and so is the crowd which for an overflowing bar on a Friday night, is important! Most people were happy to be standing outside to drink. There was a small room upstairs which if you really needed to escape from the masses is an option. However, it did feel a bit isolated up there so we stayed with the heaving mass downstairs and pounced on some seats when they became free. I love my bitter and my pubs and I had no complaints about the Queen's Larder.
This pub is nicely located, away from the busy roads on a quiet street which makes it a good spot for a quick pint or two just out front. Inside there's a small bar downstairs, with 5 or 6 small tables and a nice, if low key atmosphere. The bar is well stocked and it was good to see Leffe on tap.
This little pub is tucked into a corner of Queen's Square, near Russell Square. Its not a bad place to stop off for a pint while on a stroll around the area, but there's nothing special about it either. The service was fast when I was there, although it wasn't that crowded. There were enough seats although the tables were tiny- barely enough room for five glasses! We were also thinking of grabbing a pint, heard the food was acceptable, but apparently the chef hadn't turned up that day so we made do with crisps.
Been to this place a number of times now, and I wouldn't recommend it in the evening unless you don't mind standing outside, thats where I've always ended up, butt hat doesn't mean it's not a good place to go. It is on the corner of a pedestrianised street which makes an outside pint or two actually very pleasant. The decor inside is very nice, though you do get the feeling they've tried to go down the wine bar route but didn't quite get there. In the afternoon particularly its nice to while an hour or two away inside. It tends to be frequented by workers from the local Hospital or publishing types, which is perhaps how it manages to be so consistently busy.
Love this boozer! If ever in London make sure you pay it a visit! You won't regret it. Located on the corner of Queen's Square (near Russell Square) and Great Ormond Street Hospital, this is a quaint little pub full of Dickensian charm and warmth. Be warned though, it is quite tiny inside and very popular but well worth the effort especially in winter where you can cosy up to the roaring fireplace. In the summertime, outside is best! It's called the Queen's Larder for good reason - according to legend, the cellar was used as a food storage area (hence the Queen's Larder) by Queen Charlotte when her husband, King George III, received treatment for mental illness in the nearby hospital. The staff are friendly, eager to serve and prices are reasonable for London. And the beer's good too....enjoy!
I went many times in this pub, that's a bit small but the inside is so british. Very pleasant to have a couple of drinks there. A bit expensive!

I was a guest post on The Catholic Couponer's Blog
Visit my reflection on 1-peter for a Bible Study about getting through hard times! We are all called to a life long of learning. As we are all called to continuing learning i am both a student and teacher. i am currently teaching a class on Scripture and I am participating in a Scripture Study. As our lives continue to change so must our understanding of our faith. Adult Faith Formation is an important part of our faith. There are 6 Dimensions for Adult Faith Formation.
Holy Scripture and Sacred Tradition form the core content of all adult catechesis for the Church has always considered them the "supreme rule of faith." Scripture is a good starting point for reflecting on our faith. as is the Catechism of the Catholic Church. They both serve as a reference for the presentation of our faith. They both help adults grasp the content of the faith as well as give them the tools necessary to apply their faith to their daily lives. (paraphrased from Our Hearts Were Burning Within Us, USCCB, 1999)
In the General Directory for Catechesis it is stated, "The maturation of the Christian life requires that it be cultivated in all its dimensions:
- knowledge of the faith
- liturgical life
- moral formation
- prayer
- belonging to community and
- missionary spirit
When catechesis omits one of these elements, the Christian faith does not attain full development." (GDC #84-87)
We must present our faith to all people in various ways; through memory; through practice; through missionary works. We can accomplish this in many ways. Some very prominent ways is through the formation in liturgy, through our domestic church, in small groups and in whole community; in large groups and finally through individual activities where we can interact with the material and see how it applies in our lives.
With lent coming upon us quickly be sure to take the time to study, pray and reflect as you prepare your heart for the Resurrection of Christ.

During President Bush's press conference earlier today, CBS News' Jim Axelrod asked Bush if he had "any message" for his critics who, in the words of conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer, have "Bush derangement syndrome." Bush replied that he didn't "know why they get angry." Asked to comment on Bush's response, Krauthammer praised Bush on Fox News today, saying that "he took a shoe for the country, a bullet for the country" by absorbing all of "the opprobrium and the abuse" over the war in Iraq. Watch it:

We are Sam and Sarah. An Australian couple in search of (well lets face it) delicious food and some good times on the road along the way. We have climbed a volcano, lived in a small village in the Rhodopes Mountains in Bulgaria, eaten pigs ears and stood on the most western point of Australia. We have a slight obsession with the different types of red and green men on traffic light crossings and are constantly failing in our attempts to pack light.
We spent left Australia in 2011 on an indefinite backpacking trip. However in 2012 we found ourselves back in the land down under after a year on the road as a job opportunity had presented itself for one of us that was too good to resist. So at them moment you will find us spending our time working and travelling within Australia.
Food Travel Bliss is our travel blog, have a look around and if you see something you like, feel free to leave us a comment.
The blog.
Whilst planning and saving for our first year of travel we read some amazing, inspiring, funny and helpful travel blogs. There are so many great stories out there that kept us inspired and spurred us on as we stayed in on a Saturday night to save for our trip. After reading all these great blogs we decided it looked like fun and wanted to start our own. Plus we like the idea of it being a way to send news back home as well as keep a record of our travels for ourselves, as it so easy to forget some of the things you have done.
Our thoughts on travelling.
"Once the travel bug bites there is no known antidote, and I know that I shall be happily infected until the end of my life." – Michael Palin
It might be a corny quote but it really does sum up our feelings towards travelling. What is there not to love. No more office job, no uncomfortable stockings, no grumpy early mornings, no routine, no commitments, just the freedom to take it as it comes. We are travel on a limited budget as we want to continue to travel for as long as we can – which has both positive and negative sides, but for the most part makes for an interesting and fun way to travel.
More about us…
Whatever I am doing in my life I will always strive to find the time and money to travel. I grew up with a good sense of adventure, having spent a lot of time travelling with my family on weekends and holidays as a kid. My best memories are from the camping trips we would go on through out Western Australia, setting up camp in our old camper trailer anywhere it would fit. Study, work and holidays have taken me to most states in Australia as well as Europe and some parts of Asia. I am a keen snowboarder, even thought I grew up over 2500 kms from the nearest snow, and over the last few years have hit most of the slopes in Australia as well as New Zealand, Japan and Bulgaria.
I also love storytelling. Ask me a simple question and you'll probably get a half hour explanation with loads of over exaggerated facial expressions, too many wild and unrelated tangents and lot and lots of hand gestures. I enjoy writing my thoughts and our stories down and sharing them with family, friends and anyone else who wants to come along for the ride.
When I was a kid I couldn't wait for family holidays, school excursions or guide camps, whether it was to the beach, country side or the city I craved the sense of adventure in experiencing something new.
Travelling for me is my favourite way to learn, I love immersing myself in the history, culture and of course the culinary delights each new area has to offer, and must admit I turn into a bit of a geek at the prospect of a new museum to explore.
Aside from dreaming about or planning our travels I like to play hockey and netball and am slightly addicted to the Amazing Race. I also enjoy documenting, photographing and sharing some of our more memorable and of course non memorable experiences on the road.
Food, food glorious food.
One of the BEST things about travel is all the fantastic, new, different, delicious, exotic, tasty (and not so tasty) food you get to eat in every new place.
We know the rules around budget travel often dictate things such as;
- take the longer/slower transport option as it is often half the price,
- ferret out the cheap accommodation, even if it is a bit on the cramped side because "you only need to sleep there",
- wear your clothes again and again, inside out, upside down and back to front until you no longer know what colour they were or what item of clothing they originally were, before you fork out to buy more.
This is fine, but we cannot bring ourselves to eat peanut butter sandwiches three times a day in order to make the buck stretch further if it means we are missing out on the local speciality dish.
Thus we are always on the lookout to try some new, seek out the signature dishes of the area we are in, watch food being prepared traditionally or getting involved in the making. For us it all adds to the ultimate experience of travelling. In saying this we won't normally seek out the fine dining experiences, our best meals are something that tastes great but costs little.
What about the bliss?
We believe that no amount of planning can create the perfect 'blissful' trip. Things won't ALWAYS go to plan, the unexpected WILL happen, you will MOST LIKELY get lost.
But this doesn't mean you don't have to have a great trip. We personally don't like to plan too much as you never know what might come up along the way and over planning can often lead to heightened expectations and let downs. Taking it as it comes and making it up as we go is often the key to a great trip.
Having said that, while having no plans can have it benefits, being familiar with where you are going doesn't do any harm. When you know what to expect when you arrive, it can get you a long way to ensuring you have a great time. We are still learning a lot as we travel and if we think something is useful we will probably share it, because you never know, if it helps just one person have a more blissful trip then that is great.

22" TV recommendations

Posted April 27, 2011 at 11:03AM
I'm looking for a 22" TV for a small room and am looking for some recommendations as I've not really been following the market recently and I'm not up to speed on best brands and what to avoid.
I've heard that some of the units of this size have poor sound quality, are they noticeably bad, or is this just people who like to complain?
Is there any difference between the LG and Samsung brands? I've been looking at a Samsung http://www.richersounds.com/product/...d/sams-b2230hd and an LG http://www.richersounds.com/product/...27wd/lg-m227wd.
However, I've not heard much about LG and Samsung gets good reviews. Is there enough difference between them to opt for the Samsung?

Daughter has an LG, I have a Samsung, both pretty similar
Its personal choice really, you need to see and hear them both showing the same thing.
Also look at them when they are switched off - width of frame, speaker location, size of stand etc.

Thanks - can't see them myself as it will be an online purchase. Some people at work say Samsung is a better device, but is this true and will the variances be noticable with such a small screen?

Baby 5 is a servant and an assassin of the Donquixote Pirates[3] and an officer of the Pica Army.[4]
Baby 5 is a woman of average size. She has a slim, well-endowed, curvaceous figure. She wears a skimpy, velvet French maid outfit that reveals much of her legs, with her white bra partly visible. She has been seen smoking a cigarette on multiple occasions. She also carries heavy weapons on her back, including a large rifle, an axe, and a sword. She has long, black hair and wears dark colored heels.[1]
When she arrived at Punk Hazard, she wore goggles around her eyes, which became partially filled with tears after she began to cry. Upon her arrival at Punk Hazard she was seen carrying new weapons on her back: a large flamethrower and a large Gatling gun.[3]
Ten years prior, her hair seemed less curvy, wore no lipstick, and she wore a ribbon in her hair as well as a pair of large gloves on her hands.
Baby 5 is an incredibly emotional person, crying and attacking Donquixote Doflamingo at the same time. Despite this, she is still very eager and willing to attack her enemy even in such an emotional state.[1]
She can not say no to anything anyone asks of her, under the impression that she is needed whenever she is asked to do something, even if the person made it clear that it was a mere joke right afterward. This can cause her to want to marry, help, lend money to anybody who asks or even buy weapons from someone despite having no use for them due to her ability already granting her all forms of weapons, while naïvely believing the salesman in that the owner of the weapons would be blessed with happiness.[5] As a result, she has a debt of 98,000,000 and eight late fiancés.[3] When she is unable to help a person, she deeply regrets it to the point that she wants to commit suicide. Because of this behavior, she is also regularly teased or taken advantage of by even her own crewmates, much to her obliviousness.
She still tends to get emotional during interrogations, as she slapped Law in order for him to answer to Doflamingo, only to cry and seek comfort from Buffalo moments later.[6]
Donquixote DoflamingoEdit
Baby 5 is a member of the Donquixote Pirates, yet she has a grudge against her captain for killing eight of her previous boyfriends. She continuously tries to attack him with fatal blows because of this, albeit without success. However, Doflamingo does not consider it a rebellion, as he assigned her to go to Punk Hazard with Buffalo to assist Vergo right after she attacked him. Buffalo says that Doflamingo thinks of her as a younger sister, and that he is merely protecting her from her own "personality flaws".[3]
However, when Doflamingo asks her to do something, she comes to wanting to help him again, and considers any inability to respond to his need to be a failure on her part.[7]
When infuriated by the deaths of her fiancés, she refers to him as "Joker" rather than his true name or, as some other members refer to him, "young master" and refers to him derogatorily.[3] At times when she wants to help him, she refers to him as "young master" like the others.
Trébol seems to be quite uncaring and casual with Baby 5 and enjoys making fun of her quirk of accepting every man who proposes to her and cruelly makes fun of the fact that Doflamingo keeps killing off her fiancés. He even jokingly asks for her hand in marriage despite knowing that she'll take it seriously and simply laughs it off, showing that he has little respect for her. Baby 5 seems to not be fond of him as well, having a problem with his getting too close to her when they talk and his crude remarks, but like with anyone else she will naïvely do anything he asks if he "needs" her, almost accepting his fake marriage proposal.
The two are seen talking casually shortly after he shot her, indicating a strange relationship and also her being forgiving towards Gladius. Baby 5 showed worry when he got angered, fearing that his head will explode.
Baby 5 was partnered with Buffalo during the Punk Hazard Arc and they demonstrated good teamwork. She also sought comfort from him when she got emotional during Law's interrogation. However he is still willing to selfishly take advantage of her helpful nature, asking her for a loan of 2,000,000 in order to spend the money at a casino despite knowing that she already has a heavy debt to deal with.
In the past, Baby 5 was proposed to by eight men, the last one being a sloppy-looking vagrant who she just met, giving her a simplistic flower as a present. Due to her knack of accepting every request ever made to her, Baby 5 believed that every proposal made was sincere and true love, causing Doflamingo to kill all eight proposers and their hometowns to protect Baby 5 from her rashness. She became distraught at their deaths to the point of tearing up.
When Trébol asked for her hand in marriage simply to poke fun at her, and then immediately retracted it for that reason, Baby 5 took the proposal seriously, and had to be told off by Lao G and Jora.
Abilities and PowersEdit
As a member of a Shichibukai's crew, she has been shown to be a formidable fighter. She also appears to have a decent level of durability as shown when she is shot with a pistol, only to appear completely unharmed afterwards. She is durable enough to withstand the attacks from Franky Shogun and Nami's homing lightning bolt and only take a short time to recover.
She is also strong enough to carry several heavy weapons that are bigger than herself with her, and has great jumping abilities, as she jumped off of Buffalo in midair to allow him to rotate himself to blow away the lethal gas weapon, only to land back while carrying all those weapons.[5]
Devil FruitEdit
Baby 5 ate the Buki Buki no Mi. A Paramecia-class Devil Fruit that allows her to change her entire body into any kind of weapon she likes. According to the fruit description, all of her body is made of weapons. She can transform parts of her body into either blades or firearms, or her entire body into a giant sword,[8] missile[8] or sickle[9] for her partner Buffalo to wield or launch as appropriate.
Alongside the versatile weapons she can produce from her own body, she also carries on her back what appears to be a Gatling gun and a large flamethrower, as well as a sword strapped to her thigh.[3] She showed great skills in using the Gatling gun, having aimed at the Franky Shogun from a distance, with the rounds causing quite some accumulative impact, despite the robot's durability blocking all of it. She bought these on a whim due to her personality flaw and the salesman's sweet talking of her into it, despite the fact that, as noted by Buffalo, she is a weapon herself and does not need them.[5]
She participated in Doflamingo's takeover of Dressrosa. After Monet opened the gates to the royal palace, the Donquixote Pirates stormed the palace.
In the past, she had eight fiancés. Doflamingo killed all of them and destroyed every city they lived in.[3]
Pirate Alliance SagaEdit
Punk Hazard ArcEdit
She was first seen on Dressrosa when Doflamingo was talking to Vergo. She seemed upset with Doflamingo and aimlessly tried to kill him, calling her captain a "lowlife bastard" while Machvise tried to calm her down. She was stopped when Gladius shot her, and when trying to shoot Doflamingo once more, he used his powers to turn her gun back at her own head. Doflamingo then sent her and Buffalo to Punk Hazard to retrieve Caesar Clown.[1]
Off the coast of Punk Hazard, Baby 5 and Buffalo were seen heading to the island. Baby 5 then vowed to kill Joker when she returned to Dressrosa, along with the rest of the town for what he did to her fiancé. She went on to say that this is the eighth time Doflamingo has killed the man she loved, destroying eight towns in the process. She then wondered why he wants her to be miserable. Buffalo, the giant man on whom she is riding, told her that it is Doflamingo's way of being protective, like a big brother. He went on to say that she needed to learn to say "no" more often. She then has a flashback to a sloppy-looking man giving her a flower, calling it love at first sight and asking her to marry him. Baby 5 then told Buffalo that no one can say no to a marriage proposal. Buffalo then told her that she gets attached too easily, citing the fact that she reads fifty different newspapers, is too quick to give out money, and is just as quick to spend it. He then asked her how much debt she was in, and Baby 5 responded that she only owes 98,000,000 and told Buffalo to drop the issue. Buffalo then asked if she could lend him 2,000,000, which made her think that he needed her. Buffalo then told her that he wants to go to the casino when they return, and Baby 5 responded by saying that she would give him the money as soon as they finish the mission.[3]
As she said this, Punk Hazard appeared below them. Baby 5 wondered if the gas would go away if she fired one of her weapons. Buffalo responded by saying that he would take care of it. Baby 5 then jumped off of him, and he then he used his rotating abilities to act as a fan and dispel the gas. This uncovered the tanker ship, and the two decided to wait there for Monet, Caesar, and Vergo, when all of a sudden, the tanker exploded. At first, they thought it blew up, but then they realized something had hit it. They were even more surprised when that something turned out to be Caesar Clown.
Buffalo then called Doflamingo to report the incident, and Doflamingo, who was surprised at first, smiled. He then ordered Buffalo and Baby 5 to recover Caesar and return to Dressrosa immediately. Buffalo then wondered about Monet and Vergo, to which Baby 5 responded that Joker must have his reasons. While going to collect Caesar, Baby 5 saw someone on the deck of the tanker. Even though Buffalo thought that anyone surviving the gas was an impossibility, the person was revealed to be Franky using his Franky Shogun.[3]
Baby 5 and Buffalo engaged Franky in battle after he tried to shoot Buffalo down. Baby 5 mistook the Iron Pirate Franky Shogun for a Pacifista at first, but then remembered that Caesar has no interest in human weapons. While fighting Franky, she used her Missile Girl technique and caused a huge explosion.[8] She then reformed and walked away, and asked how Franky liked the flames of her passion. However, Franky got back up unfazed and continued fighting her. After fighting Franky for a while, unable to cause him damage, Baby 5 transformed into a sickle, which Buffalo used to pierce Franky Shogun's left arm. Undeterred, Franky blew them away with General Cannon.[9]
Buffalo and Baby 5 managed to get back up, but upon seeing Law, the Marines, and the Straw Hat Pirates approaching, they decided to grab Caesar and ran. As they fled through the sky, Nami struck them down with Lightning Breed Tempo before the pair were finished off by Usopp's Totsugeki Ryuseigun.[9] The three were then seen briefly before the Straw Hats, the G-5 Marines, and the former Punk Hazard soldiers started their party.[10]
After the Straw Hats, the G-5 Marines, and Law were done celebrating their success, Law decided to decapitate Buffalo and Baby 5. Both heads were then put on a raft and sent towards the direction that Doflamingo was coming from. Once Doflamingo noticed them, Baby 5 confirmed that Law really did betray their crew, and expressed her disappointment at being unable to serve him when he needed her.[7]Despite their failure, Doflamingo forgives them both saying they were just following orders.
She then listened to the conversation between Doflamingo and Law. When Law told Doflamingo to resign from his position as a Shichibukai, Baby 5 was shocked and told him that Doflamingo could never return to Dressrosa again. After the conversation ended, she seemed to fear Doflamingo's wrath over the negotiation.[7]
While the G-5 Marines and Caesar's former test subjects looked for their comrades who were petrified and left behind, some of the Marines came across the decapitated bodies of Baby 5 and Buffalo. While the baffled Marines pondered on what to do with them, their heads came flying down from the sky and attached themselves to the bodies. Doflamingo accompanied the two back to Punk Hazard, to look for Law and the Straw Hat Pirates.[11] She left with Doflamingo and Buffalo after Kuzan's sudden appearance.[12]
Dressrosa ArcEdit
When Doflamingo was unable to relocate Caesar himself, he supposedly decided to resign as a Shichibukai, causing pandemonium in Dressrosa and the world beyond. He then had Baby 5 call for Trébol, who made fun of Baby 5's fiancés before he jokingly asked her for her hand in marriage. Despite his rude intrusion into her personal space, she found his proposal irresistible, to which Lao G and Jora yelled at her not to do.[13]
Baby 5 later had a conversation with Gladius concerning Violet's betrayal.[14]
When she heard that some intruders, including Luffy, have breached the palace rampart tower, she was momentarily confused since Luffy was believed to be at the Corrida Colosseum as Lucy.[15]
She and Buffalo were later seen in the second floor suit room as Doflamingo interrogated Law about the Straw Hats' objectives. She slapped Law and demanded that he answer Doflamingo. Law gave her a glare and she started crying and seek comfort from Buffalo.[16]
When Sugar's curse broke, all the toys in Dressrosa transformed back into their original forms. As the Donquixote Family's hold on Dressrosa started to crumble, Baby 5 screamed in terror when Kyros decapitated Doflamingo.[17]
As Kyros struck down Doflamingo's subordinates and defeated Buffalo, Baby 5 was unable to stop him. After Gladius and Pica arrived at the suit room, Baby 5 was shocked to see Doflamingo still alive.[18]
It is then revealed that the Doflamingo that was decapitated was only a copy. When the real Doflamingo appeared and sliced the palace apart, Baby 5 watched his brief skirmish with Luffy and Kyros. After Pica threw Luffy, Law, Kyros, Viola, and Riku Dold III out of the palace, Baby 5 stood next to Doflamingo as he initiated his "bird cage" plan.[19]
Sometime after Pica relocated the royal palace to the top of the Flower Hill, Doflamingo and some of his officers (including Baby 5) and lower-rank subordinates had a gathering to discuss plans concerning the Straw Hats and the Marines. When one of the grunts laughed at Pica's voice, Baby 5 shot him.[20]
She was later seen on the second level of the new King's Plateau guarding the palace alongside Machvise, Gladius, Lao G, and Dellinger. When Dellinger wondered why Issho and his Marine platoon were not stopping Luffy and his allies from going up the new King's Plateau, Baby 5 looked through her binoculars and discovered that Sabo was standing in the Marines' way.[21]
After the colosseum fighters reached the second level, Baby 5 attacked Dagama with Revolver Leg.[22] When the colosseum fighters banded together, Baby 5 came face to face with Sai.[23] She transformed her right leg into a sword and kicked him, but Sai blocked her attack with his staff.[24]

This week, the House is expected vote on a bill that would cut almost $4 billion a year from food stamps.

Which Oscars styles are best — and worst?
Our friends at SF Unzipped picked the best and worst red carpet looks from Sunday night's Oscars, but now it's your turn to choose. From men in white to ladies in gorgeous gown — to a question about do shorts belong on the red carpet (ahem, Pharrell) — we want to know what you think.
Oscars 2014: The show
Oscars 2014: Red carpet
Oh, check out below as the Chronicle's Peter Hartlaub and Laura Compton (along with the Daily Dish and SF Unzipped teams) watched the red carpet entrances and the Oscars! And don't forget to play along with SF Unzipped's drinking game.
Oscar dress showdown
How do some of the most memorable Oscar dresses match up against each other? Whether it's the bold color of Michelle Williams and Nicole Kidman or the slinky styles of Charlize Theron and Farrah Fawcett, we want to know what you think of these Oscar gowns. Vote now!
Ellen DeGeneres to host 2014 Oscars
Comedienne Ellen DeGeneres is returning to the Oscars stage as the host of the 2014 Academy Awards.
The talk show host, who received a Primetime Emmy nomination for Outstanding Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program when she fronted the 79th Academy Awards in 2007, will anchor next March's show at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
Announcing the big news on Friday, producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron said, "We are thrilled to have Ellen DeGeneres host the Oscars. As a longtime friend, we had always hoped to find a project for us to do together and nothing could be more exciting than teaming up to do the Oscars.
"There are few stars today who have Ellen's gift for comedy, with her great warmth and humanity. She is beloved everywhere and we expect that the audience at the Dolby Theatre, and in homes around the globe, will be as excited by this news as we are."
DeGeneres joked about the big gig, stating, "I am so excited to be hosting the Oscars for the second time. You know what they say – the third time's the charm."
Harvey Weinstein's daughter behind Michelle Obama's Oscars cameo
Movie mogul Harvey Weinstein's teenage daughter came up with the idea to have Michelle Obama make a surprise appearance at the Academy Awards on Sunday.
Audiences were stunned when President Barack Obama's wife appeared live via satellite link from the White House to declare Ben Affleck's "Argo" the winner of the coveted Best Picture statuette.
Organizers managed to keep her cameo under wraps and even Affleck admitted he was shocked, telling reporters, "I was sort of hallucinating when that was happening. Over the course of a hallucination, it doesn't seem that odd. Oh, a purple elephant. Oh, Michelle Obama. I was just asking these two guys outside, 'Was that Michelle Obama?' In retrospect, anyway it was very cool."
Now it has emerged the plan was dreamed up by Weinstein's daughter Lily, who helped her dad and Academy bosses work out the details with Michelle in Washington, D.C. two weeks ago.
Academy President Hawk Koch tells The Hollywood Reporter, "I loved that we pulled it off."
Koch also reveals acting legend Jack Nicholson was standing by with the results in a second envelope in case a technical error interrupted the video stream.
Ethan Hawke takes aim at the Oscars
UPDATE: In a statement released Friday, Hawke says, "I think the Oscars do a very good job in representing much of the great work in a given year. Inevitably though, many great films and performances are not recognized and can be overlooked due to the mass marketing and PR machines that march through the awards season. I don't mean to take anything away from the genuine and deserved excitement that every nominee should feel."
Ethan Hawke has branded the Oscars "destructive" and "fake" in a scathing criticism of the Hollywood awards season just days before the movie industry's biggest ceremony.
The two-time Oscar nominee, who received nods for 2001′s "Training Day" and 2004 romance "Before Sunset," fears the annual tradition of handing out prizes is detrimental to the industry because it encourages such a fiercely competitive culture.
He is also convinced the Academy Awards have very little value because they have been won by so many "stupid movies" and "mediocre performers" over the years.
In an interview with Gotham magazine, which has emerged online just days before Sunday's Oscars ceremony, Hawke says, "People want to turn everything in this country into a competition… It's clear who the winner is and who the loser is. It's why they like to announce the grosses of movies, because it's a way of saying, 'This one is No. 1.' It's so asinine…
"If you look at how many forgettable, stupid movies have won Oscars and how many mediocre performers have Oscars above their fireplace. Making a priority of chasing these fake carrots and money and dubious accolades, I think it's really destructive."
Oprah gets violent in Jimmy Kimmel's post-Oscars skit
Oprah Winfrey showed off her violent side on late-night TV in America on Sunday when she attacked book club fans as part of a skit on comedian Jimmy Kimmel's annual post-Oscars show.
The comic was pitching ideas to the TV mogul for new Oprah Winfrey Network shows and he imagined one that was a spin-off of Oprah's famous Book Club segment, called Fight Club Book Club.
In the scene, the former talk show queen challenged fans who didn't agree with her take on literary classic To Kill a Mockingbird.
Winfrey smashed glass vases, headbutted, kicked and punched other club members.
The skit ended when a disgusted Winfrey insisted Kimmel leave her office and jettisoned him through the roof in an ejector seat.
Check out the skit in the video below.

Check out what the stars wore to the Governors Ball after the 2012 Oscars. Winners showed off their awards and celebrities looked stunning in their Oscar attire. Check out more red carpet outfits in the Oscars 2012: Best dressed and Oscars 2012: Worst dressed galleries.
Brian Grazer insisted on pre-Oscars meeting with Sacha Baron Cohen
Oscars producer Brian Grazer insisted on a meeting with funnyman Sacha Baron Cohen minutes before the start of the big show on Sunday night to make sure "The Dictator" wouldn't be making a surprise appearance during the ceremony.
Cohen dumped an urn of fake ashes on the red carpet and all over E! news presenter Ryan Seacrest after arriving in character as Admiral Aladeen and his presence made Grazer more than a little nervous.
The movie mogul says, "Those shenanigans caused me to go into his dressing room because he had to change. He made me worry that he could create a problem during the show, but he promised me that he wouldn't… and he's a man of his word."

A Portland youth football league coach accused of sexually abusing girls was sentenced to nearly 19 years in prison.
Otha Banks Jr. pleaded no contest last November to two counts of sex abuse charges in one case and guilty to rape in another.
He was arrested in March 2011. Court documents said he abused three girls under the age of 14 from 2005 to 2010.
He also has an extensive criminal history, including assault and drug and firearm possession.
Back in March, Pop Warner Executive Director Jon Butler told Fox 12 he believes it could've been "inefficient record keeping" that allowed Banks to slip past the criminal background check.

By Jennifer Emert - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) – Hundreds of volunteers were honored Thursday for their service to the Dougherty County Schools.
With a tight budget school officials say those volunteers are more important than ever. A brunch was held this morning at the school's Isabella Complex. Approximately 123 volunteers workers more than 100 hours in the schools this year. School officials say volunteers do everything from mentoring students to helping office staff, to working in several of the schools media centers and their efforts don't go unnoticed.
"Right now since we're in such a budget crunch we're not able to hire as many people as we would like so volunteers really help us to fill some of those areas that we have a need for," said Tomeeka Daniels, DCSS Volunteer Coordinator.
The school system is always looking for new volunteers. You can sign up or get information from the schools administration office.

text: is knowing that I got so close to someone again, only to lose them. I have the memories, yes, but what does that do but haunt me more? Remembering the times that all we had to do was look at one another and understand what the opposite was thinking, non-stop laugh sessions, and heart-felt moments where teardrops stained each others shoulders. Sometimes I catch myself thinking about you, wanting to send you a text of some inside joke, or call you when I'm on the brink of a breakdown. I wonder if you'd even listen. After I've gotten back down to reality I just question what went wrong, because even now, I don't know. People come at me with the third degree, and I give blank stares, looking half retarded, or fully stoned; either way I'm guilty of ignorance, because I cannot give them an answer. Hell, I didn't even get an answer. I just want to know, what happened that was so bad that we were torn apart…maybe we just were never as strong as we pretend to be; maybe our own stubbornness cut through and bled us dry without our attention. Regardless, my heart isn't filled with hate; I actually love you, because that's what sisters (and I called you my sister) do; they fuss and argue and say horrible things to each other…but no matter what, they still find love in their hearts for another, and yes, you'll always be in mine.
