Rip Torn charged over bank break-in

Elmore "Rip" Torn has been charged with breaking into a Connecticut bank and carrying a loaded handgun while intoxicated. State police say the 78-year-old actor was arrested on Friday night after police found him inside the Litchfield Bancorp with a loaded revolver. The Men In Black star has been taken into custody and charged with burglary and possession of firearm without a permit. He is being held on 100,000 dollar (£62,500) bond and is scheduled for an appearance in Bantam Superior Court. Last year, Torn was given probation in a Connecticut drunken driving case and granted permission to enter an alcohol education programme. He also has two previous drink-driving arrests in New York. A spokesman for Torn did not immediately return phone calls.(my view lol)-So when he goes to jail probably it'll be the last suit he wears(the orange prison uniform or what ever color they wear now)

GMTV breast milk comments spark row

Ofcom is looking into complaints after a midwife suggested during a TV debate that breast milk may not be any better for older children than drinking cola. The comments were made on GMTV, during a discussion hosted by Lorraine Kelly tackling the "taboo" subject of breastfeeding older infants, which also included opinions from members of the public. Midwife and breastfeeding specialist Clare Byam-Cook, one of three guests involved in the studio debate, told GMTV: "Breast milk beyond the age of two isn't necessarily good because it's very, very sweet... "The fact that it's breast milk doesn't make it any better than a glass of Coca-Cola. It does damage babies' teeth." Ann Sinnott, author of a book about breastfeeding older children, challenged her view, asking what the evidence was. She said: "There is no solid research on this at all." Mother Nicola Harris, who is breastfeeding her four-year-old child, told the ITV1 debate on Thursday that her daughter has perfect teeth. Ms Byam-Cook told GMTV she is all for breastfeeding, but this became a "private decision" beyond the age of about two. She said: "I certainly don't see why babies should decide. If your toddler decided that she wanted to spend all day eating sweets, watching television, going to bed at midnight would you say: 'Well that's your choice?' No." It is understood GMTV received between 10 and 20 emails responding to the item, giving a range of opinions. A spokesman for Ofcom said: "We have received a small number of complaints which are being assessed against the Broadcasting Code." A spokeswoman for the show said: "We are satisfied that we presented a fair and balanced item. "Each guest was given ample time to express their views." (my view)-I disagree,breastmilk is better then cola,i drink both and breastmilk has won hands down in my book and breastmilk/breastfeeding is healthier and has many benefits....i down get sick as much 87% less illness,and i can think more clearly
Thankyou Barbara
