The fact that the Drudge Report revealed Prince Harry's whereabouts in Afghanistan is absolutely disgusting. It's times like these when a good hacker could come in handy. But, getting the Prince yanked from Afghanistan won't diminish Harry's contribution to his nation's battle against extremism. As British writers Charles Moore and Jasper Gerard have put it so eloquently, what Harry has done is to awaken a nation to the sacrifice being made by its soldiers in Afghanistan--that brutal combat theatre that gets dismissed as "the other war."

We knew it all along ... Kevin Rathbun is a force to be reckoned with. This past Sunday, he proved it to the world on national television. Bravo to Atlanta's own chef Kevin Rathbun for becoming the first Georgia chef to defeat an Iron Chef on Sunday’s night Iron Chef America Series. Kevin and his brother, aka “The Rathbun Brothers,” were a hit on the show, creating five different dishes with the secret ingredient of elk:  elk carpaccio, seared chili-rubbed tenderloin, elk meatballs, fajita marinated elk loin and Manchego Gougeres stuffed elk liver.

According to the three judges (food author Ted Allen, rapper Bone Crusher and executive chef Alexandrea Guarnaschelli), the Rathbun Brothers' cuisine reigned supreme and scored a 50 to Flay’s 46. Scored in the areas of taste, originality and plating, the Rathbun Brothers received high marks from the judges with one saying, “I’m in awe.”

To celebrate the victory, Kevin Rathbun threw a party at Kevin Rathbun Steak, which benefited the Atlanta Community Food Bank. They raised $11,000 from the sold-out Iron Chef America viewing, where guests got to celebrate and watch the show with Kevin Rathbun.

Kevin Rathbun owns and operates Rathbun's, Krog Bar and Kevin Rathbun Steak.

Giving is far better than receiving. When California Pizza Kitchen opens its newest store at Pine Straw Plaza in Marietta today (Monday, Feb. 25), it will donate 100 percent of all dine-in pizza sales to Make-A-Wish Foundation of Georgia and Alabama, which is headquartered in Marietta. The nonprofit organization grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions. Past wishes have included trips to Walt Disney World, meeting celebrities and sports stars, going on shopping sprees or being an airline pilot or ballerina. Try our fave: the Thai chicken pizza, which features chicken breast marinated in a spicy peanut-ginger and sesame sauce, mozzarella cheese, green onions, bean sprouts, julienne carrots, cilantro and roasted peanuts. Forget your diet for a day. Do it for the children. 4250 Roswell Road. 770-971-7950. (Full article and comments)
