Budweiser is a pretty well known beer brand.

It's known all over the world!

But in some parts of the world, if you order a Budweiser you might get a full bodied beer from a small brewer in the Czech Republic.

That's because Anheuser-Busch and Budejovicky Budvar have been both selling "Budweiser" beer for over 100 years!!

Jamie Oliver just wants people to be healthy.

The only way he can do that, though, is if he can remain a public figure — and popular enough — to catch the ear of those who are listening!

So he wrote a cook book, called Jamie Oliver's Great Britain.

Sorry for yelling, but this is just about the worst news we could get today — apparently a shortage of bacon is looming on the horizon… and we can't do anything to stop it!

Britain's National Pig Association (NPA) (yes it's real) says that pig herds in Europe are shrinking, which is now a trend around the world.

To blame?

Wow.

It's over, it's all finally over.

We're so sad to see the 2012 London Summer Olympics come to an end but we're so glad for all that happened during them.

We have a total of 104 medals! 46 gold, 29 silver and 29 bronze!

China took second place with 88 total; 38 gold, 27 silver and 23 bronze.

Host country, Great Britain came in third with less overall medals (65) than 4th place Russia (82) but more golds with 29 to their 24.

Peter Wilson, 25, of Team Great Britain, won the Olmypic shooting gold medal for the men's double trap!

Team GB is finally making a bit of a comeback, racking up gold medals finally.

Men's time trial bike race winner, Bradley Wiggins, won the first of hopefully a chain reaction to get the UK on the medal count scoreboard.

But hopefully not higher than the USA! USA! USA!

Still, congrats to Peter!

Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, got to meet the oldest Olympic torch bearer.

Her name is Diana Gould and she is 100-years-old!

Diana is going to carry the Olympic flame through the borough of Barnet.

She runs three exercise classes a week in the retirement home where she lives too!

So carrying the torch shouldn't be a problem at all.

Kate will be heavily involved in the summer games as she is the Olympic ambassador for Great Britain's athletes.

We couldn't think of a better ambassador!

According to science at least, this may be the world's most beautiful woman.

This is Florence Colgate, an 18-year-old from the U.K. who recently won a natural beauty contest.

The contest involved women modeling without any make-up or cosmetic enhancements.

A researcher from the Perception Lab at the University of St Andrews' School of Psychology said:

"Florence has all the classic signs of beauty. She has large eyes, high cheekbones, full lips and a fair complexion. Symmetry appears to be a very important cue to attractiveness."

The ratio of the distance between her ears to the distance between her pupils is almost 2:1 which is scientifically ideal.

And the distance between her eyes to her mouth is almost a third of the distance from her hairline to her chin, which is another scientific measurement of symmetrical perfection.

So how does someone become the world's most beautiful woman? Be born that way.
