VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (AP)—Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson has been set straight on Thanksgiving comfort food.

“The 700 Club” founder showed a clip of Condoleezza Rice on Wednesday. Robertson’s host, Kristi Watts, asked what dish the former secretary of state had to have on Thanksgiving. Rice replied macaroni and cheese.

Watts reacted enthusiastically, adding “Sister, that is my dish...”

Appearing perplexed, Robertson asked Watts, who is Black, of the women’s shared enthusiasm for mac ‘n’ cheese, “Is that a Black thing?”

(NNPA)—It’s a smaller world than you think, especially if you are a member of Facebook, according to researchers at the University of Milan.

According to their analysis of Facebook’s database, the average number of acquaintances separating us from someone we already know is 4.74, not the six degrees of separation dramatized by a film and play of the same name.

(NNPA)—A new set of dolls sold exclusively at Toys R Us stores nationwide is making a splash—and sinking—with parents. According to news stories and customer reviews on the Toys R Us website, one of the You & Me Interactive Triplet Dolls—the one dressed in pink—needs her mouth washed out with soap.

Not so, a Toys R Us representative told IBTimes.com, “the doll is just making baby talk—not using any expletives.”

But parents disagree and are more than upset about it. Fox23 News in Tulsa, Okla., operated the doll for a few people to see whether the doll is saying the word “b**ch.”

MIAMI (AP)—The family of a Florida A&M University drum major who died in what authorities suspect was a hazing incident will sue the school, an attorney said Nov. 25.

The family of Robert Champion, 26, spent the holiday weekend planning Champion’s funeral, attorney Christopher Chestnut said.

The Atlanta resident was found on a bus parked outside an Orlando hotel Nov. 19 after the school’s football team lost to rival Bethune-Cookman. Police said Champion, a clarinet player who recently was named drum major, had been vomiting and complained he couldn’t breathe shortly before he collapsed.

The cause of Champion’s death hasn’t been determined. Preliminary autopsy results were inconclusive, and a spokeswoman with the Orange County medical examiner’s office said it could take up to three months to learn exactly what killed him.
