"Little Miss Sunshine tries to have it both ways: it mocks the laquered, dolled-up, prancing nymphetry of such pageants--assumes an air of superiority--then has its heroine perform something even more vulgar for cheap laughs." and also with "The entire family seems to have been peeled off a billboard advertising an All-American dysfunctional family." Hi Haritha: I add the caption to each image on my own and there is no easy, ready to use feature on Wordpress for that. You just have to type the caption below the image. Hope this helps. :)-, a microwave methi mattar malai, Wow, 4 m&m's, that must be good.:) Glad to hear that you tried and liked the recipe. Thanks for letting me know. Nandu: Thanks for your request. I will definitely blog about it one of these days. I never cooked with it but I remember reading a recipe with fennel bulbs at Spicyana food blog, Raghu. You can find the link in Food blog list. Balu: It's not one but total 6 recipes, exactly matched word by word were published on Yahoo without the food bloggers permission/knowledge. Ultimately Yahoo is responsible for its content. It definitely should atleast apologize to the blogger, I think.

Big corporations like Google and Yahoo get content from various sources. Some content is received from portals like webdunia.com. It would have been mistake on part of Yahoo if they did not remove the content after you have complained. But the fact is that they did, and that shows Yahoo respects your opinion. They also pointed you to the right source of problem. Now if you want to continue protesting with Yahoo, while not addressing the actual content stealer, then I would not find it fair.

In fact, Bawarchi.com is not behind. They have been using few pictures from Sailusfood.com website on their website. This image http://www.sailusfood.com/2006/06/23/soya-chunks-vegetable-pulao/ is being used on homepage of www.bawarchi.com.

This has nothing to do with your current posting. Need some info, if you could share. I started experimenting with Wordpress and noticed that there is no option to view the description of a picture, like you do at the bottom of each picture in your postings. There are fields to enter title (shows up as a tooltip) and description alright, but description never shows up! I sifted through Wordpress faqs, did not find anything. Thanks in advance! Haritha.
