Beacuse Candy Only Works on Little Kids...

In the battle to win the hearts and minds of potential teenage recruits, the Missouri National Guard has hit upon a winning formula: video games and pizza.

Once a month gamers, pizza lovers and those simply interested in joining the Guard are invited to play Xbox 360 games National Guard-style at several Guard outposts in Jefferson County.

It's not your typical video game experience: Gamers fire away on massive big screen televisions while perched on the back of a camouflaged Humvee."We've been doing it for three or four months and we've had a good turnout," Tim Davidson, Guard spokesman, said. "It's a good way for kids to hang out with each other and stay out of trouble."


Of course, if the conflict in Iraq was just and not a quest for oil and political gamesmanship, I'd imagine more people would be signing up without having the "Hansel and Gretel" treatment. Then again, if the conflict was just we'd have left by now.

Sandrine Holt - Age: 36, Height: 5'10", Relevant Movie/TV Roles: Resident Evil: Apocalypse & Mutant X Pros : She's played both a (doomed) reporter and a person with superpowers, so if she can play both, she's a shoe-in. Plus she's probably the least-known actress on this list, so they can two movies out of her cheap. Cons : While D.C. isn't as star-crazy as Marvel when it co...

5 Actresses Who Deserve a Bigger Break

Being the avid movie watcher that I am, I've noticed that more than one talented actress has been passed over for other talent. And by "talent," I mean, "sex tapes that 'accidentally' made it to the Internet." Well, here's one man's humble attempt to rectify the situation. The following ladies are not only talented, but beautiful. Hollywood: get off your ass and give these women more roles. DANIELLE FISHEL Noticeable TV/Movie Appearances: Boy Meets World; both National Lampoon's Dorm Dazes The delightful Ms. Fishel has the distinction of having the weirdest named ever associated with a smart-yet-hot character (or maybe I'm the only one who has a problem saying "Topanga!" whilst in the throes of passion) as well as participating in the death of the National Lampoon Series (I personally thought it died with Chevy Chase's career; who knew?). If you were to use her IMBD page as a reference, the only real fault people seem to hav...
