Notes![thedailywhat:
Food For Thought of the Day: McDonald’s UK has announced that it will be temporarily replacing the toy commonly found in the company’s familiar “Happy Meal” with a book.
The fast food chain will thus become — at least for the duration of the giveaway — Britain’s biggest retailer of children’s books, as distributes nine million copies of War Horse author Michael Morpurgo’s Mudpuddle Farm titles.
Morpurgo will reportedly be donating his royalties from the promotion to benefit his charity, Farms for City Children.
In an amusing twist, the Children’s Food Campaign has expressed concern that giving away Mudpuddle books will “make fast food more attractive to children.”
I’ll take fat and well-read over skinny and illiterate any day.

Tip Or Die of the Day: Spotted at a Starbucks in Serman Oaks.
Also: Pinky VS the Brain? I would tip generously to see that show.

Notes![haha i had this professor
thedailywhat:
[Enter Breaking Bad Reference Here] of the Day: Irina Kristy, a 74-year-old Suffolk University adjunct math professor, will be arraigned later this month on charges of conspiring to cook and distribute methamphetamine.
Her son, 29-year-old Grigory Genkin, pled not guilty to the same charges last month.
The duplex of the Somerville, MA resident, who considers Nobel Peace Prize laureate Andrei Sakharov a friend, had been under police surveillance since August of last year. Authorities finally raided the home on November 7th, finding several hazardous materials associated with the production of meth.
“Due to the amount of materials and contraband located and seized…It is believed that… Kristy was complicit in the methamphetamine operation,” said Somerville Det. Michael Brown in his report.
Kristy is due to appear in court December 21st; Genkin is also due back later this month.
In addition to her position at Suffolk University, Kristy, who emigrated to the US from the Soviet Union in 1985, is also a lecturer at Boston University.
According to her reviews on RateMyProfessors.com, she was considered something of a scatterbrain, with one former student warning fellow BU undergrads to “NEVER take her unless you absolutely have to,” adding, “she’s a nice lady but gets flustered easily.”
