Mamie L. Watson, 87, playwright, jazz lover
Mamie Lucille Watson was known to be a "smart woman" who was strong and independent. Watson was highly intelligent, well respected and a mentor to many.
"She was a wonderful, caring and giving person who was always there when you needed her," said her son William Watson. "If you needed a friend, she was there for you."
Watson said he was moved by all the support he has received since his mother's death.
"She was a very big-hearted lady," he said. "She touched so many lives. There were so many people who called her mother and thought so highly of her."
Watson died October 9. She was 87.
Watson was born on September 12, 1924 in Philadelphia, the eldest child to Spann and Alice Sanders. She was big sister to Spann "Jack" Sanders Jr. and Everett Thurman Sanders. The western section of the city was where she experienced life. She easily matriculated through the Philadelphia school system and received her diploma from Overbrook High School in 1941.
She married Moses William Watson in 1942. From that union came her three children, William, Edward and Brenda.
Watson supported her children with the help of her family and by working diligently. She did day's work and was a packer at Crown Can Company until finally landing a terrific job. Her family said that The United States Signal Corp located then at Broad and Cherry streets employed this young Black woman who showed eagerness, promise and potential. After working several years in Philadelphia, her department moved to Fort Monmouth, N.J. Watson sacrificed and would leave from 69th Street every morning at 6 a.m. to make the 180-mile round trip. While there, she preformed various positions as she moved up the ranks, which was difficult for most.
She advanced her career by taking classes offered by the government in the evening at Benjamin Franklin High School. Watson retired from the federal government as a supply cataloger after 30 or more years of extraordinary service.
With a thirst for learning, she continued her personal growth entering Philadelphia Community College at the mature age of sixty. She proved successful and received her Associate's Degree in Creative Writing shortly thereafter.
Watson met the Lord early in life at Mount Carmel Baptist Church. Later in life she enjoyed the word at Sharon Baptist Church and was moved to join.
Her love for Jesus Christ was displayed in a number of ways. She found inspiration singing for the Mt. Carmel Choir under the direction of the late Napper H. Hester III. She carried the soprano section with her beautiful, melodious voice.
She also joined the Mt. Carmel Chorus and later the Mother's Guild of the church where she flourished. Watson was also a member of the Noon Day Bible Study class and loved it.
She realized the Lord had gifted her with talents beyond her or anyone's imagination. Writing, casting, directing and perfecting plays was something she enjoyed. She ensured excellence by incorporating her family to act and assist with the presentations. The performances were usually standing room only. Her works were in demand and pereformed at other churches as well.
Going to shows, plays and dining out were among her favorite things to do in her younger years.
She also enjoyed listening to jazz. Nina Simone, Lena Horne and Dinah Washington were her favorites. You could find Ms. Mamie reading, writing or doing research on various subjects. Watson was a person who appreciated the nice things in life. All who knew her agreed that she was kind, considerate, caring, loving, giving and had a heart of gold.
Watson leaves to mourn: two sons; William (Jeanette) and Edward; grandchildren, Kevin, Edward, Keisha Marie, Christopher, Staci, Brian and Ashley; great-grandchildren; brother, Spann "Jack" Sanders; loving nieces and nephews; great nieces and great nephews; and a host of people who called her "Mother."
She was preceded in death by her parents and daughter, Brenda.
Services will be held October 14 at Sharon Baptist Church, 3955 Conshohocken Ave. The viewing will be form 8:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. The service will start at 10. Julian Hawkins Funeral Home handled the arrangements.

Ernest A. Branch, 91, devoted father
Ernest A. Branch was enlisted in the United States Army in 1940, where he received several distinguished awards and was honorably discharged in October 1945 with the rank of Technical Sergeant First Class. He settled in Philadelphia and enrolled in the Spring Garden Institute on the G.I. Bill where he received a diploma in automobile mechanics. This became his lifelong passion.
He was also a very devoted family man.
"Daddy was an excellent father, and he raised my brother and I to be very mindful of being good citizens in the community and to always think of what God would want us to do. He was a very hard working man," said Darlene Branch Smith, his daughter.
"He was just a wonderful father. I'm not saying he didn't have faults, but he was just a phenomenon when it came to raising children."
Branch died Dec. 10. He was 91.
Branch was born on August 1, 1920, the oldest of seven children born to Jessie and Ernest Branch of Monessen, Pa. He attended the public school system of Monessen City and graduated from Monessen High School.
Through his good friend and future brother-in-law he met Irene Reel, who became his wife of 51 years, and preceded him in death. From this union two children were born, Gregory Cleon and Darlene Inez.
Branch became gainfully employed at Quaker City Sugar Company in 1945 where he rose through the ranks. In 1957, he became one of the first African-American checkers on the Philadelphia waterfront. This enabled him to schedule the loading and unloading of the trucks on the docks. He held this position until his retirement in 1981.
"He worked very hard on this job, and he also worked on the weekend,"
"He got a little job for himself on the weekend catering and washing windows for the senior citizens in his church to get extra money for Gregory and I because he wanted us to go to college."
Christ was an integral part of Ernest's life, and as an adult he committed himself to helping organize Beloved Baptist Church where he became a Senior Deacon and served many years on the church's finance committee. He encouraged his children to be actively involved in the church as well.

Miranda King Pope, 87, active in community
Miranda King Pope, affectionately called Randy, was a diligent woman.
Pope's devotion to her family and friends was a testimony of her life. Miranda wore many hats in her lifetime; she was a mother, wife, grandmother and a confidant — but mostly, she was a friend. She had a love for clothes and jewelry like no other. Her bedazzled jewelry and outfits were her trade mark. She died October 6. She was 87.
Pope was born on November 26, 1923 in Jackson, Ga. to Apostle and Mary Lena Wooten. She received her formal education in the Cambridge School District. After completion of high school, she continued her education as an LPN at the Cambridge City Hospital. During this era, she witnessed the effects of World War II, which permitted women to hold full-time jobs outside of the home while the men went off to war. Because of this, her first full-time job was with an electrical plant, making resistors for radios and short wave radio equipment.
In 1943, she relocated to Philadelphia where she met and married Jessie J. Goode. Of this union, a son, Gerald Gordon Goode, was born.
She was a devout Christian who firmly believed that Jesus Christ was her personal savior. She became a faithful member of the Child's Memorial Baptist Church in North Philadelphia.
She was a member of the Federation of Nurses of Philadelphia and Vicinity and with the help and support of her former pastor, Rev. R.A. Cromwell; Edward M. Baker; Deacon James Fuller and Deacon Lindsey Milner, Pope became the director of the church's daycare center. This daycare center was the first of its kind, solely supported by a church. With the proper credentials, inspection and approval from the Department of Education this daycare center became an important resource in the local community. Her love for God and her devotion to her church was evidenced by the different auxiliaries and community functions in which she actively participated.
In 1949, Pope met and married Theodore King, and from this union a daughter, Karla Denise King, was born.
In 1964, she became employed at Temple University where she became head of the Interior Design Department. Pope loved her job at Temple; she could be seen talking to college students who were away from home for the first time.
In the early 1970s, Pope met the love of her life, George Pope Jr. This love lasted over 40 years.
Randy traveled extensively to the Bahamas, Spain, Africa and Japan. Her favorite place was Niagara Falls where she would sit for hours because there she felt close to God. After 30 years of dedicated service at Temple University, she retired in 1988.
In 1990, Pope and George retired to Florence, S.C. Her continued devotion to God led her to attend several churches. With the help of family and friends, she became one of the organizers of the People's United Baptist Church where she served as a Sunday School teacher, president of the Deaconess Board, youth advisor and the Mothers' Board.
In 2006, Pope returned to Philadelphia due to declining health and because she missed her family. She united with the Mt. Zion Baptist Church of Germantown where she resumed her deaconess duties, also serving on the Stained Glass Window Committee and Pastors' Aide Ministry.
In 2008, Pope was diligent in registering people to vote. She was a philanthropic supporter of the NAACP, and the Obama for President Campaign. She attended a rally in Vernon Park where she cheered on Barack Obama who ultimately became the first African-American president.
Pope leaves to mourn: husband, George Pope Jr.; daughter, Karla D. Talbert and numerous relatives and friends.
Pope was preceded in death by her son, Gerald G. Goode; son-in-law, Alan L. Talbert and granddaughter, Kourtney L. Talbert.

He received his education in the Philadelphia Public School District. He obtained a bachelor of science degree from Drexel University and a master's degree in education from Cheyney University.
A highlight of his work experience is his 16-year career at the Defense Support System and five years as a teacher in the Philadelphia Public School District. He was also employed at the Philadelphia Department of Human Services as a social worker for nine years at the time of his death.
He was also an official referee for football, softball and basketball in the following organizations: UBBO, Tri State, ABC and PIAA Associations. He also taught and played tennis. He would take time out of his activities to get to the gym to workout and play racquetball.

Yesterday my friend and I were walking out of Forever 21 and the wind blew my skirt up a little. I had shorts on underneath (for this very reason) but two guys in a parked car saw it happen and yelled at me to lift it more, I yelled back, "fuck you!" and they laughed. So I took my pocket knife out of my bag and said, "I will slash your fucking tires" and they did not laugh

Israel: South Africa labeling decision 'discrimination'
Ma'an - 23/08/2012
BETHLEHEM – Israel on Wednesday denounced South Africa's cabinet decision to label goods from illegal Israeli settlements as produced in the occupied Palestinian territories.
In a statement, the Israeli foreign ministry said the decision "is without precedent, as no such measure has ever been adopted in South Africa or in any other country. It constitutes therefore a blatant discrimination based on national and political distinction."
The statement added: "Israel and South Africa have political differences, and that is legitimate. What is totally unacceptable is the use of tools which, by essence, discriminate and single out, fostering a general boycott. Such exclusion and discrimination bring to mind ideas of racist nature which the government of South Africa, more than any other, should have wholly rejected."
The ministry said South Africa's ambassador would be summoned Thursday.

Perpetual whining from the racist occupiers of Palestine. There has never been such an egregious criminal theft of a sovereign state, concerned not only with confiscating land, erasing history to frame the israeli narrative. I wish my country (USA) had a tattered shred of fairness towards the blameless Palestinians.
The time is coming when nation after sovereign nation will refuse to have any relations with the immoral Tel Aviv Regime. Religious Fundamentalists and extremists cause mayhem and destruction in the relentlessly battered Middle East.

On a beautiful March day, I was on the way to school in Jerusalem when the bus I was in was stopped at Ras Il-Amoud. The soldiers got into the bus, told everyone to get out and told the bus driver to turn and go back from where it came. Some passengers started arguing with the soldiers, explaining they had jobs or classes to go to, but the soldiers didn't want to know about that and started shouting and beating those present with their clubs, including me. We were school children and were not a threat to armed soldiers, nevertheless a number of us were arrested for daring to tell the soldiers to stop beating us. We were handcuffed and loaded into military jeeps. On the way, we were forced to bend our heads down the whole trip and the only thing I could see were the boots of the soldiers.
When the jeep finally stopped, we were ordered by the soldiers to step down and as I looked around me I realized we were in a military camp. The soldiers told us then to stand in a certain place, turn our backs to them and kneel on the ground. We were still handcuffed. … continue

In Aleppo, rebels brace for full force of Syria's Assad regime
With Syrian Army forces withdrawing from locations across the country and heading toward Aleppo, rebels there are preparing for a fierce battle for the strategic city that few expect them to win.
(Page 2 of 2)
"The foreign fighters, some of them are clearly drawn because they see this as … a jihad. So this is a magnet for jihadists who see this as a fight for Sunni Muslims," Watson reported on CNN International's "Amanpour" [last] night. "And that's definitely cause for concern among some Syrian revolutionaries I know … who do not want an Islamist political agenda to be mixed in with their revolution."A majority of Syrians are Sunnis, and Sunnis make up a bulk of the opposition to Syria's regime, which is dominated by minority Alawites, followers of an offshoot of Shiite Islam.

Rebel fighters are believed to hold about half of the city under their control, French reporter Adrien Jaulmes, who was traveling with rebels in Aleppo yesterday, told the BBC. Activists say the rebels are not expected to be able to hold Aleppo if faced with a full government assault, as has been the case in Damascus.
On the international stage, there is new talk of political transition in Syria after Arab countries announced plans yesterday to go to the United Nations General Assembly to seek approval of a resolution calling for a political transition and democratic government in Syria. This follows months of failed attempts by the UN Security Council to agree on how to halt the escalating conflict and worrying disclosures about the Assad regime's chemical and biological weapon stockpiles.
A resolution by the General Assembly would not be legally binding, but it is symbolic of the frustration many feel with the ongoing conflict in Syria, which has claimed between 18,000 and 19,000 lives since March 2011. The Arab countries' push for a resolution came after UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon appealed for a united response to the civil war during a speech in Bosnia yesterday.
"Quite simply, we must do better in seeing atrocities coming and telling it like it is. We cannot take refuge behind strong words and weak action," Mr. Ban said.

Yay! It's finally done! I know it's had some setbacks(school, the Waterman thing, and laziness), but it's now finished and, at the very, least better than episode 7!
Running Time - approx. 3:20.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars October 23, 2006
its not great in in the funny section, dont get me wrong i loved the ingus series but there simply not that funny anymore, crazy is ok but it has to be funny oh well keep up the good work i suppose
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars October 24, 2006
Eh. I suppose decent.
Maybe it's just not my type of humor, but I didn't find this very funny. I didn't laugh, though I was at least kind of smiling through it. Enjoyable-ish. Good points are that the graphics aren't bad, and I suppose to other people (I mean, this is number eight after all) this is funny, so you must be doing something right. I guess my problem is with random humor-I blame Family Guy for this. Hate for Family Guy. But in any event, kudos on a valiant attempt at making people laugh. At least someone is trying.
Comedy is one of those things where only the people who are really good at it appeal to everyone. Obviously, I'm not one of those people. And I'm a fan of Family Guy, but I think its problem is that fact that almost all its comedy is derived from cut-aways that don't really have any pertinence whatsoever.
Rated 2 / 5 stars October 25, 2006
Worst episode ever!
The first thing that annoyed me was that the Ingus' voice had changed... That's not good..
The second was that it wasn't nearlly as random as it use to be.. Learn from the first episodes, ffs! They kick fucking ass, mafuckah!
Rated 0 / 5 stars October 24, 2006
Another great installment.
There's just something about this series that makes it so enjoyable. I've been looking forward to seeing this for a while now and I'm pleased to say that it didn't dissapoint =)
Why are you people intentionally raping my average? Faggots.
Rated 0 / 5 stars October 24, 2006
One of the best episodes in the series.
It's great to finally watch another episode of Ingus, especially one as great as this. Nice graphics and a nice storyline, though the humor falls a little short. The sound could also have done with a bit of touching up, since some sounds were really quiet and others really loud.
Dude, then what's with the zero?

ABSTRACT: A method of modified edge representation (MER) for flat plates are applied for the pattern analysis of GPS patch antennas mounted on a rectangular ground plane. In the MER, the contribution of FW-EECs (equivalent currents) to total EECs are weighted by the function of the angle between the modified edge and the real edge. The key feature of this approach is that uniform fields are predicted everywhere though only classical diffraction coefficients are used in first-order diffraction. The secondary diffraction is included as well. The ray-tracing is greatly simplified by introducing other fictitious edges for MER. Numerical results for diffraction from the GPS patch antenna mounted on a flat plates demonstrate the potential of MER. The EECs derived are specially refined to MER; the physical meaning of the MER and the weighting of FW-EECs should be validated theoretically in future studyAntennas and Propagation, 1993., Eighth International Conference on; 02/1993 - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The method of equivalent edge currents (MEC) has extended the applicability of GTD. The equivalent edge currents, however, generally suffer from false singularities outside the Keller cone. These singularities depend upon the coordinate for inner integration in the surface to edge integral reduction. The objective of this paper is to eliminate false singularities of the currents. A new co-ordinate for inner integration that maximises the phase variation of the integrand is proposed. Consistent use of this co-ordinate leads us to novel expressions for not only fringe but also PO and GTD equivalent edge current without any false singularities. These currents are verified for diffraction from a disk and a square plate. It is numerically confirmed that GTD-MEC using new currents predicts uniform patterns and is almost comparable to PTDMicrowaves, Antennas and Propagation, IEE Proceedings H 09/1991; -
Conference Proceeding: Equivalent edge currents of physical optics components for flatplate
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The authors propose a novel and heuristic concept for surface to edge integral reduction of physical optics currents in order to obtain PO-EECs (physical-optics equivalent edge currents) without false singularities. Firstly, the edge of the scatterer is divided into segments, each of which is replaced with a fictitious one satisfying the diffraction law at each point. Secondly, classical PO diffraction coefficients are applied to the fictitious edge, and the EECs with only the true singularities are derived. The remarkable accuracy of PO-EEC is demonstrated numerically for dipole-wave diffraction from a flat disk and a square plate. It is noteworthy that the residual current singularity at shadow/reflection boundaries can also be suppressed arbitrarily by taking the limit in the subsequent line integration; uniform PO fields are predicted everywhereAntennas and Propagation Society International Symposium, 1991.

Marty Turco is Hawks' top goalie
CHICAGO -- Chicago Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville quashed any talk of a potential goaltending controversy Thursday when he said Marty Turco is his No. 1 goalie.
ESPNChicago.com Blackhawks Blog
The latest Hawks news and notes from ESPN Chicago. Blog
Must-see: Hawks playoff gallery
When Quenneville started Corey Crawford in Wednesday's game against the Nashville Predators, it raised a few eyebrows. Crawford had just helped the Blackhawks earn their first win -- 4-3 at Buffalo on Monday, but it was widely thought Quenneville would go back to Turco against Nashville.
But Crawford started and suffered a 3-2 loss to the Predators.
Quenneville made it clear Thursday who is No. 1.
"Marty is fine," Quenneville said after practice. "Marty is No. 1."
That can always change, as was witnessed last year when Cristobal Huet gave way to Antti Niemi, who went on to win the Stanley Cup. But it's too early to consider this to be a trend.
"My plans are to play in every game and prepare to do so," Turco said. "That's kind of my job description as others might see it, and as certainly I do."
During the preseason, Turco hinted at wanting to play about 55 games and Quenneville didn't disagree with that assessment. He's on pace for 41.
"I'm going to prepare on and off the ice to be heavily relied on in all facets," Turco said. "Putting a number on it at the beginning of the year was just more rhetoric than anything. Who the hell knows what's going to happen. I know its cliché but it is just one game at a time."
It might be hard to find a date last year when Quenneville decided to go with the hot hand instead of a fixed goalie rotation, but it happened. No matter how it's labeled to the public, Turco is committed to the team.
"You take it personally," Turco said. "I'm in it for the wins. I'm in it to be on a winning team. It's not fun if the team is [bad], and you think you're fine. It doesn't work like that. I'm here to be on a winner, no matter what and to do my part, no matter what."
As for Corey Crawford, he's thrilled to be getting an early season look. He said he would have been very surprised, "with Turco here," if he had earned a third straight start. Turco will play Friday against the Columbus Blue Jackets while Crawford could very well play Saturday against Buffalo. That would make three out of four for Crawford.
"I think me and Marty, we're trying to push each other to be better and push each other for playing time," Crawford said. "He's a really good goalie. I'm trying to make him at the top of his game.
"We have a pretty easy relationship. He's easy to get along with."
As with any coach, Quenneville is keeping any long-term plans close to his vest. Safe to say, the formula that worked last year could happen again. After all, the Hawks sat a goalie making about $5 million more than his back-up last season. In this case, the difference in their pay -- about $500,000 -- may not even warrant the loyalty Huet received. Again, that's not for the present.
"Our goaltending is fine," Quenneville said. "It's given us a chance to win."
So it's a situation to keep an eye on, just as it was last year. Even Turco agrees.
"We have a crazy, busy schedule," he said. "So we'll just totally get immersed in this and figure it out when the dust settles."

HP launches first NFC-equipped Touch to Pair Mouse
Posted on 20 Sep 2012 at 10:42, by Gareth Halfacree
Hewlett Packard has announced a wireless mouse which comes with an interesting feature: tap-to-pair functionality.
The Bluetooth-connected Touch to Pair Mouse, designed for use with the growing number of hybrid tablet-stroke-laptop devices hitting the market with the impending launch of Microsoft's Windows 8 and Windows RT operating systems, includes Near-Field Communications (NFC) capabilities. As a result, the usual tedious pairing process for Bluetooth peripherals - where the user has to place the peripheral into discoverable mode, search for devices on the host system, pick the device from a list and enter a shared passcode - is replaced with a simple tapping action.
The idea is this: when tapped against another device with an NFC radio, the mouse automatically begins the Bluetooth pairing process. By the time the two devices are out of range - with the NFC radio being limited to just a few inches, rather than the tens of metres of a modern Bluetooth radio - the pairing process is complete and the NFC radio shuts down, with the Bluetooth radio taking over for the actual data communication process.
Sadly, there is a slight catch to what is on the surface a very clever idea: very few computers on the market today include NFC radios. Although becoming an increasingly common sight in smartphones and tablets, although not having been included in Apple's iPhone 5 launch, PCs have been slow to adopt the system, for the very sensible reason that NFC is largely about waving your device at other NFC hardware - something that's awkward to do with a laptop and all but impossible with a desktop.
Should the Touch to Pair Mouse be used with non-NFC computers, HP explains, it will function as a normal Bluetooth mouse and can be paired in the traditional manner.
HP has confirmed plans to launch the Touch to Pair Mouse in November, with a US recommended retail price of $39 (around £24 excluding taxes.) UK pricing has yet to be confirmed.

Sunday Streets Rode the Bay, Heads to the Beach for July 10Another great Sunday Streets in the Dogpatch, Potrero Hill, and the Bayview was made possible by 100+ awesome volunteers this past weekend. At the fourth Sunday Streets of the year attendees enjoyed hula hooping, roller skating and more while the SF Bicycle Coalition hosted Freedom From Training Wheels for the kids. Next up on July 10, Sunday Streets returns to the Great Highway and Golden Gate Park. Enjoy the event as a volunteer and get a free lunch and a t-shirt. It takes literally hundreds of people like you to help make Sunday Streets possible. Be a Sunday Streets hero and volunteer. Here are four ways you can help make Sunday Streets a huge success:
Tonight, Meet and Greet for New SF Bicycle Coalition MembersIf you have been an SF Bicycle Coalition member for less than a year, you are invited to join us tonight to learn about the work of the SF Bicycle Coalition, education and community programs, and our vision for Connecting the City.

Bike Lane Links Adding Up in the Outer Part of the City
The SF Bicycle Coalition is thrilled to announce that new bike lanes are linking many parts of San Francisco's outer neighborhoods. After years of community outreach by SF Bicycle Coalition members and volunteers, and SFMTA staff, neighbors and business owners are seeing long-desired improvements making it easier to get around San Francisco neighborhoods by bike. Video: US DOT Secretary LaHood Bikes to WorkU.S. Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood joined a group of Department of Transportation staff this past month on their morning bike commute in Washington, D.C. With congress working to re-authorize the national Transportation Bill, and advocates like the SF Bicycle Coalition working hard to make sure bicycle and pedestrian projects keep their funding, it is great to see the leader of this important agency offer support for better biking. All across the nation and here in San Francisco, projects like physically separated bikeways and green bike lanes are under federal study, and a lot of funding comes from the federal government, so the more that leaders in D.C. try biking, the better your ride becomes in San Francisco.

AIDS charity raises $1 million and "dead" celebs live!
- Tweet
- Share this
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - It took longer than many thought -- and comedians had a laugh at their expense -- but singer Alicia Keys and her celebrity friends raised $1 million for an AIDS charity and, with it, lived to tweet again.
Keys and her Keep a Child Alive charity co-founder Leigh Blake on Monday said their widely-followed "digital death" campaign reached its $1 million goal after pharmaceutical entrepreneur Stewart Rahr pitched in $500,000.
At stake, along with raising funds to help millions of children and families living with AIDs in Africa and India, were the digital lives of celebrities who vowed to stay off social networking websites Twitter and Facebook until the $1 million was raised.
The celebrities included Justin Timberlake, Ryan Seacrest, Lady Gaga, Kim Kardashian and Usher. Their campaign launched on World AIDS Day, December 1, amid great fan fare with the expectation it would quickly reach its goal.
After all, the celebrities all have millions of fans. Lady Gaga boasts 7.3 million followers on Twitter, alone. Justin Timberlake has 3.6 million, and Seacrest has 3.7 million.
Problem was, it took longer than many celebrity watchers thought, and as donations reached only $100,000 then $200,000, the stars became the butt of jokes on the Web, TV and radio. Their popularity -- or lack thereof -- was questioned, as was their fans' desire to keep them digitally dead.
But on Monday, the stars emerged from their coffins.
"So stoked to be back on twitter! Special shout out to Stewie Rah Rah for his generous donation," Seacrest tweeted.
"I'm back from the dead! Thank you all so much for your donations and contributions! I have missed u all so much!!!," Kardashian posted on Twitter.
For its part, Keep a Child Alive said, "although we never expected to raise $1 million overnight, we are completely blown away that we were able to achieve our goal in less than a week." The group said more than 3,600 people participated in the campaign by sacrificing their own digital lives.
Rahr owned and operated a New York-based pharmaceutical distribution business that he recently sold. He learned of Keep a Child Alive earlier this year, the charity said.
