Dangerous Dessert
Chef Antony Worrall Thompson may have just created the world's most dangerous dessert. His creation is called a Snickers Pie and it manages to pack over 1200 calories in a single slice. The recipe starts with Snickers bars and then adds on more goodness in the form of sugar and mascarpone and puff pastry. I'm not convinced that it would be good, but I'm one of those adventuresome souls who believe in trying new things so I would not be above trying a bite or three. There is a great article at Scotsman.com that details the creation and the horror it has provoked. And, as I believe in giving the benefit of the doubt, I will present the recipe (with a little minor editorializing).

This is getting somewhat far more subjective, but I a lot desire the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has far more flair, and some cool attributes like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see linked albums, songs, or other consumers related to that which you're listening to. Clicking on one in every of those people will middle on that merchandise, and yet another collection of "neighbors" will occur into view, allowing you to navigate all around exploring by similar artists, songs, or customers. Speaking of consumers, the Zune "Communal" is also wonderful pleasurable, letting you locate other individuals with shared tastes and starting to be close friends with them. You then can pay attention to your playlist made dependant on an amalgamation of what all your buddies are listening to, which is also pleasurable. People uneasy with privacy will be relieved to find out you may forestall the general public from seeing your personal listening habits should you so choose.
