In case your Thanksgiving wasn't flashy enough
Hold onto your giblets: Designer turkeys are flying off store shelves - even at prices as high as $14 a pound.
That's a $168 dent in your Thanksgiving budget if you're hunting a tasty 12-pounder.
Manhattan architect Stephen Alesch dished out more than $200 Sunday for a pair of Good Shepherd Poultry Ranch Heritage free-range turkeys, priced at $11 a pound and dubbed the "Mercedes-Benz" of birds by Dean & Deluca staff.
"They hang out in open fields," Alesch, 45, said in defense of his three-figure fowl.
"It's all about what it's been like for them for their one or two years of life."

Megamind... Saw 3D... Same difference!
Families at Showcase Cinemas in Revere, Massachusetts were expecting to see 'Megamind,' a colorful, animated superhero adventure presented in eye-popping 3D.
Instead, they got the first few minutes of 'Saw 3D,' a bloody, gruesome horror movie presented in 3D so that you can literally see eyes popping.
It remains uncertain whether or not the traumatized children and their shocked parents began to flee after the footless man cauterized his leg stump with a burning steam pipe or after the woman got lowered into the buzz saw.

Conan is the new late night king--for one night, at least
The premiere episode of "Conan" attracted 4.2 million viewers, according to figures released Tuesday by TBS, making O'Brien's new talker the top-rated late-night show on TV -- broadcast or cable -- Monday night.
O'Brien beat out NBC rival Jay Leno, whose "Tonight" show attracted 3.5 million viewers Monday. And the debut of "Conan" is now basic cable's all-time No. 1 late-night talk show telecast. It eclipsed Barack Obama's Oct. 29, 2008, appearance on "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," which pulled in 3.6 million viewers, the show's biggest audience to date.

Jon Stewart conquering Letterman and Leno?
Jon Stewart, fresh from his "Rally to Restore Sanity" in Washington last weekend, has made US ratings history by beating rivals David Letterman and Jay Leno to become last month's highest-rating talkshow.
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, which airs on cable channel Comedy Central, attracted the highest average adult audience of any late night talkshow in October, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The Reporter states that it has been "at least a decade" since a talkshow other than David Letterman's Late Show on CBS or Jay Leno-fronted The Tonight Show on NBC topped the ratings.
Stewart, who has generated a lot of publicity since announcing in September he would hold a rally in Washington's National Mall, attracted an average of 1.3 million adult viewers per show during October. That put him ahead of Leno and Letterman, who averaged 1.2 million.

Who knew you could OD on caffeine?
A 23-year-old British man died after ingesting two spoonfuls of caffeine powder that had the same potency as 70 cans of energy drinks.
An inquest over the April death of Michael Lee Bedford from Mansfield, in central England, was held on Friday where Bedford's friends said they saw him take "spoonfuls of white powder" that was given to him by a friend and wash it down with an energy drink at a party, reports the Nottingham Post. Fifteen minutes after taking the powder, "He was puking up blood and he was sweating really bad," said one friend.
The packet of caffeine powder was purchased online for $5.38 and instructed users to take no more than one sixteenth of a teaspoon.
