Point one: Odone appears to be the Telegraph's resident God-botherer.

I seem to remember a few Warehouse 13 episodes in which Twizzlers (a sponsor) showed up by name.

Grasping firmly—so he can't escape—take a step back and, with your non-supporting leg, kick to the point just under where he's placed your hand. Repeat as needed.

What you might want to know is that Nigella Lawson had cooking shows in the UK and the US. She has about 10 cookbooks out. You may not know her, but she has the sort of fame in Britain that (as in this case) invites paparazzi when she goes out to eat. She's really successful in her field. Her dad was Chancellor of…

Yeah—if this sort of crap can happen to Nigella, it can happen to any woman.

The thing is, the only opinion as to whether this was just horseplay that counts is Ms. Lawson's—not his.

The rust was a nice touch too.

Listening to this video must be a wistful experience for a lot of American servicewomen.

I agree that this fan-dancing about why everyone on the other side of puberty acts that way is ridiculous (and it really pisses kids off). But I disagree that the full explanation isn't all that complicated. It really is too much for one sitting.

IANAL, but possibly someone who is can correct me if I'm wrong: My impression is that guilty pleas are usually a type of bargaining chip, but in this case, the crimes are so heinous that there's no wiggle room to bargain for. Hence the not guilty plea.

I think even anti-choice women know this is crap.

I'm tellin' ya—if Hilary, or any other woman, becomes the Ds' nominee, you can expect this sort of crap nonstop.

The brides look pretty and terrified. The boys just look terrified.

[Le sigh.] Yves must be rolling in his grave at what happened to the firm that bears his name.

Not that anyone asked (and this may be old news), but if you partly fill a vessel with water, and then drop a good-sized piece of dry ice in it, and set it on the floor, an interesting-looking cloud will form at the bottom of the room.

If the local government is going in for virginity tests, this probably isn't one of those places where everyone's cool with single motherhood.

Just speculating, but it may have occurred to her that, of all the ways she could go, a mishap during a BASE jump is pretty cool. Which might have helped drum up her courage.

That sounds lovely too.

Great recipe, but as you point out, slicing peaches is a pain in the ass. May I recommend: Frozen sliced peaches. (Or cherries, or whatever).
