  11. William Windom dies at 88; Emmy-winning character actor

    In the role that won him an Emmy Award for best actor in a comedy series, William Windom played John Monroe, a writer-cartoonist for a New York magazine who harnessed an active fantasy life to escape the doldrums of his middle-class Connecticut existence. Based on the work of American humorist James Thurber, "My World and Welcome to It" survived only one season on NBC.

  13. Healthy Fare for Kids advocates better options

    When children go to a restaurant, they can practically decide what to eat beforehand because the menu of childhood staples is almost ingrained in their brains: hamburgers, hot dogs and chicken fingers with fries, mac and cheese, and pizza. The choices come with a sugar-filled soda and dessert.

  15. Crime & Punishment: WWE Wrestler Allegedly Fired For Supporting Linda McMahon's Senate Campaign

    <strong>There are no Chick fil-A locations in Connecticut,</strong> so Mitch Beck, an executive recruiter who is hosting a state Republican Party shindig at his home in Monroe, planned to have someone drive out to the one in Paramus, N.J., and pick up 100 sandwiches for the event &mdash; just to be a dick (or, in his words, support the "First Amendment rights" of gay-bashing Chick fil-A president Dan Cathy). Beck relented after the candidates attending started "catching heat for it, which was not the intent," he told the Monroe Patch website, adding, "There was never any intent to hurt anybody's feelings or even to take a side on a gay rights issue" (which you may have mistakenly thought because Chick fil-A is at the center of a gay rights issue). Beck has decided to donate 90 of the sandwiches he ordered to a homeless shelter, reports the <em>Connecticut Post</em>, keeping 10 for himself "to see what they taste like." They taste like ground-up bird parts and hate, Mitch.

  21. Ice cream -- It's what's for winter

    Defying the notion that ice cream is a treat best left to the long, hot days of summer, chefs are creating frozen desserts in flavors that are synonymous with the short, dark days of winter. Here is a sampling of such desserts to be enjoyed now &#8212; indoors, of course, where the thermostat keeps things comfy.

  23. Crime & Punishment: Man runs naked through Middletown after eating "mushroom brownie"

    <strong>Though only four people were present </strong>at the latest Board of Selectmen meeting in Easton, there was still what the <em>Easton Courier</em> described as a "standoff" over seating. Residents John Bromer and Robert Webbe sat down at the front table but First Selectman Thomas Herrmann found it important to reserve that table for selectmen, though he was the only one there; the other two listened via conference call. The two refused to move, saying they had sat there before and the whole thing was obviously ridiculous, but relented when Herrmann called the police chief up from his office in Town Hall to threaten them with disorderly conduct charges if they didn't move to another table, according to the <em>Courier</em>'s reporter, who was the only other person in the room. The subsequent meeting, which addressed only the renewal of a lease of land near the elementary school, lasted three minutes.
