...everyone is as sure as Oprah is about the timing. For her fans, and the stations who carry her talk-fest - and certainly for book authors whose work she championed - the final air date of Sept. 9, 2011 is all too soon. But given what Oprah wants to do next, it might be too late. She's leaving network TV to focus on creating OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network, a new cable channel that she's launching with Discovery Communications. She announced the venture almost two years ago but it will not start airing until January...
...rest of the all-star cast funnels their respective talents into the standard roster of kid-movie roles. Sean William Scott (“Role Models”) takes on the wisecracking sidekick, while the inimitable John Cleese is the requisite Evil Professor, whose refined British accent seems wholly out of place in the apparently country-less Planet 51. As the unexpected visitor, Chuck is self-centered and arrogant, and he struggles to understand why the celebrity status he enjoyed at home carries no weight in his new surroundings.

...stockpot until it bubbles golden and then rich dark brown, its flavor maturing into a sweet, nutty richness neither of the ingredients alone suggests. Nearly all gumbos have tomatoes, chicken, rice, sausage, and red pepper flakes, and are thickened by okra. Okra is a small, green squash-like vegetable whose sappy secretion transforms gumbo from a thick stew to something halfway towards gelatinous. The sausages, Cajun Andouille sausages, derived from the far milder French Lyonnaise pigs’ intestine sausages of the same name, combine pork offal and piles of spices into a dark red, incredibly rich and flavorful ingredient...
