    Sometimes sweet, sometimes scary, sometimes sour, "Oz the Great and Powerful" is a film that doesn't know its own mind. A partially effective jumble whose elements clash rather than cohere, this solid but not spectacular effort stubbornly refuses to catch fire until it's almost too late.

  21. Destination America aims to bring us together, with bacon

    Tony's I-75 Restaurant in Birch Run, Mich., is proud home of what might well be the nation's largest BLT. Each sandwich contains a pound of bacon &mdash; about 25 to 30 deep-fried strips &mdash; stacked about 8 inches high between two slabs of white bread. On a recent visit there, Todd Fisher, host of the new series "United States of Food," was invited to sample one. "I'm not gonna lie, I was scared," he says. "I took two bites and was like, OK, I'm good."
