Lily Tomlin, Carol Channing, Suzanne Somers and other celebrities will appear Friday at the splashy debut of free trolley service -- you heard right -- in Palm Springs.
"Yes, yes, they'll be here to christen the four trolleys," Hillary Angel, public relations manager of the Palm Springs Bureau of Tourism, said of the starry lineup.
Oh and film producer Jerry Weintraub, and actor Gavin MacLeod, and Harold Matzner, chairman of the Palm Springs International Film Festival too. You can come as the city rolls out the pink carpet and cuts the ribbon for a transportation service that's getting the Oscar treatment.
The star of the evening: Palm Springs Buzz, a free trolley that will connect the north and south sides of the city.
The route runs in a loop roughly from the Riviera Resort at 1600 N. Indian Canyon Drive to Smoketree Lane. It will operate every 15 minutes on Thursdays through Sundays from 11 a.m. until 1 a.m. (Download a Trolley Route Map here.)

If you want to be invited to a "Downton Abbey"-style ball, pack your gown and head to the southern coast of Georgia in January.
The luxe Cloister at Sea Island resort will host a costume ball with a few notables from the PBS TV show Jan. 29 to 31 in a weekend devoted to all things "Downton."
Actors Kevin Doyle, who plays footman Joseph Molesley, and Raquel Cassidy, who plays Lady Grantham's lady's maid Phyllis Baxter, will attend what's billed simply as a "Downton Abbey"-Inspired Weekend. (It's linked to the series only in spirit.)
Jessica Fellowes, who wrote a companion book to the popular series called "The World of Downton Abbey" and is a niece of creator Julian Fellowes, and Nick Dawes, one of "Antiques Roadshow's" appraisers, join the lineup too.
During the weekend, guests will dine with the actors and speakers, attend a QRead more
Orange County travelers will have more options to fly to Austin, Texas, next summer. An added bonus: Fliers who book by Monday can take advantage of low introductory airfares on the new service.
Southwest Airlines plans to start daily nonstop flights between John Wayne Airport (SNA) and Austin on June 28. It's also set to start nonstop daily service to Puerto Vallarta (San Jose del Cabo Airport) on June 7.
An airline announcement this week about the expanded service said flights still are subject to governmental approval.
In the meantime, travelers who book tickets by Monday for travel to Austin in June and July will be able to save. One-way fares start at $119. One-way fares to Puerto Vallarta start at $148 (tickets must be booked by Dec. 31).
I checked Southwest's website and found a $236 round-trip airfare between Orange County and Austin leaving July 11 and returning July 15. A comparative check on Kayak.com shows flights (with at least one stop and therefore longer) on the same...Read more
Las Vegas welcomed its 40 millionth visitor on Sunday, making 2014 a record year.
At least, it thinks it welcomed that person. No one really knows exactly when the milestone will be reached or whether it already has.
But entertainers including Penn & Teller randomly surprised tourists with prize packages, and Teller picked out two women from Texas strolling through the Linq promenade on Sunday as the ones that put Las Vegas over the top.
"We're supposed to know exactly who the 40 millionth is because Teller was supposed to count," Penn Jillette said.
"He was counting from the beginning of the year and then he lost count at 39 million so now we know that someone in this area now is probably the 40 millionth."
The women were awarded makeovers at a local salon.
Reaching 40 million visitors a year has been an elusive target for the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority.
The recession hit the leisure travel and convention segments hard. The previous peak -- 39.73 million visitors --...Read more

--91% of holiday travelers nationwide will be taking a road trip.
--5.7 million travelers nationwide will be flying to their destinations.

Dell inspiron M5110 driver problems.
Ill try to keep this short as I can. This is my first post so please be patient with me, I am new!
A client brought in a Dell inspiron M5110 and needed a re-installation of Windows 7 64-bit. Now normally Windows(and I usually hate windows) is terrific at getting things to work the way they should.
I have tried the technibble driver tool, as well as manually finding the drivers(the model is not listed on dells site, i had to search for it manually), but they will not actually WORK.
So I have the LAN, audio, display and most other important drivers working from the dell link and a little finesse, but I am having a hard time getting the wireless one to work. I have tried all 4 different sets from the dell site, as well as the driver tool on this site. That unloaded the .DLL files to my PC and I redirected them to the correct folder(system32.. right?). I tried to manually RUN them, but they dont associate with any progam.
Have never had so many problems with Windows 7 in my life, especially this kind of thing.
So in short-
Inspiron M5110 wireless driver needs to work, and I am out of ideas. Any help here would be appreciated as I would really like to get flip this PC and make another client happy!
Thanks, sorry if my post is convoluted or long-winded. Im just trying to give as much info as I can beforehand.
CTG Technician
going to the dell site you need to search the drivers by using the service tag number on the bottom of the laptop. Other than that, Driver Genius works well at pulling the appropriate drivers for just about anything. Also look into drivers pack.
Did you run a FULL diagnostic?

So I've mentioned that I am currently sharing a room with my son, the Bubs, in my sister's home while on a quest for employment in Texas? This makes for super restful nights and sleeping in late. Or the complete opposite of that. So to add insult to injury, what do I wake up to this morning? My son reaching out to me, hands covered in poop. In poop, y'all.
Since the Bubs started eating solid food at 6 months of age he has had poop issues. Hard poops to be exact. He still takes Miralax to ease this issue and still has hard poops. So I have not been pooped on or dealt with many poop explosions in my mommyhood. I have, however, assisted in the removal of poop boulders. But that did not prepare me for poop covered hands reaching out to me before I even put my glasses on.
I grabbed the Bubs and scrubbed his hands and mine. Twice. And then twice more. I stripped our clothes and his bed and washed the lot in the hottest water available. And then I doused the both of us in EO Hand Sanitizing Gel. Maybe more than once. I love this stuff because it's organic, it smells like lemony goodness, it moisturizes rather than dries and, most importantly, it eradicates any leftover traces of poop.

episilk™ Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum
Episilk® Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum is an intensely hydrating serum that rejuvenates skin from the inside out. It improves the tone and appearance of skin by enhancing the skin's ability to retain moisture. Its light, non-oily texture soothes skin leaving it fresh and soft, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, and is great for complete facial coverage.
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is an important element of the skin known for its ability to bind up to 1000 times its weight in water. The body's HA production naturally decreases with age, leaving the skin dry and wrinkled. Replenishing the body's natural HA allows the skin to retain moisture and provides volume, form, and lift.
Directions: After cleansing in the morning and evening, lightly dampen your face and apply 1 pump evenly to desired areas. For best results use twice daily. See our complete line of serums for other targeted results. For external use only. Keep out of reach of children.
About Hyaluronic Acid
50% of the HA found in the body is located in the skin. HA keeps skin hydrated and provides nourishment to the cells. With age, the ability of the skin to produce HA decreases; leaving it unhealthy and wrinkled.
yes: natural ingredients, fragrance free, dye free

First let me say that I am an ASID, IIDA residential interior designer. The colors of this rug are very different than the image here shows. The image shows saturated (bright, true) colors. In reality this rug's colors are much more unsaturated (muted, grayed). I would describe the "red" as rust, and describe the rest of the overall background colors as being in the sage, maize and green-beige family. There is no brown in this rug, although it would work well with greenish-browns and greenish-grays. The rug is indeed 100% wool, and the nap does measure about 1/2" H. But the warp is only 12 threads per inch and the weft is only 14 threads per inch, which is a pretty loose weave. As such, it is much more casual than what I expected it to be based on the image shown. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, as it could work well in a family room. But IMHO, it would not work well in a more formal living or dining room.
I have red mahogany woodwork and oak floors. My sofa is a rusty coral color. This rug is perfect for us color-wise. Just enough of the same rusty coral color as my sofa to bring the room together and to give the rug pattern some dimension. Other colors are gold, soft sage and tan...soft, easy to decorate around, just what I was expecting from the photo. Rug doesn't smell like some do with the glued-on backing. The pile is substantial for the price point. Here is my one complaint....when we walk on the rug without shoes, we find hard pebble-sized nodules among the fibers. Closer inspection shows hard white chunks of dried material attached to the fibers. I'm thinking it's defective application of the material used to fuse the rug to the fiber backing. They are easily harvested by hand, but you do need to get down on the floor with a knife to manually detach them from the backing. If it wasn't so close to Christmas, I would have shipped it back, but keeping it because it looks great. I will just keep harvesting for now! I would consider buying a slightly smaller version for my dining room if I could receive reassurance that there were no pebbles attached.
Listen up readers! I just received my rug 3 days ago and couldn't wait to rip the packaging off! I agree with other comments about the mustard tone that comes across in the photo, it is NOT as it seems! I am so pleased with the coloring throughout this rug. The majority of the color is very neutral and has just the right amount of muted accent colors in just the right places. This rug is in our dining room which has our dining table which seats 8 centered on it. When the chairs are pulled out, they are all still on the rug. As you can well imagine, the 9x12 is very heavy and comes folded up. It took 2 of us to get it into place. It has a nice backing to it but I still recommend an underlay. This rug has a nice feel under foot. Just love this!
This rug excceded my expectations. The color is lighter than the picture but works well and looks beautiful on my hardwood floors. Very little shedding and layed flat right away.
The rug is beautiful, thick, and heavy. You will need a couple of friends to help you get the larger sizes in place. I am so happy with the neutral color and it made a beautiful dining room out of a very ordinary one. You will not be sorry you bought this rug!
This is the second rug I have gotten thru Overstock and once again, I am amazed at the quality. The colors are not as pictured. The background is ivory with lots of greenish beige. The accent colors are yellow and deep red. It looks wonderful with pretty much any color I can put with it.
I first bought this rug for a large dining room. Then, after seeing its quality, I bought another one for the entryway. Since the rugs are wool, they do shed - although not nearly as much as most, new wool rugs. The colors are softer and more muted that I expected and not quite as vivid as the photos depict - which was fine with me. On the other hand, the colors are very elegant in the right lighting. All in all, I feel like these rugs offer both great value and long-term durability for the money. On the other hand, if 'look' and/or price are all that matters to you, then I suggest going with a synthetic rug.
I have waited about a year to write this review b/c I wanted to see how the rug held up. The answer? Very well. Note: no dogs or cats or small children, but lots of board game-playing adults and teens have been on the rug. I was concerned about the "green" color that some reviewers spoke of in the rug b/c the room in which I was putting the rug is warm-toned with rich gold, red, and brown tones. The green is more of a very light grey with a slight undertone or hint of green in it and is not noticeable (probably due to my color scheme in the room). The red in the carpet does "pop" as another reviewer stated (a deep red - not lipstick red) and I have had so many compliments on the rug. As for shedding, yes, the first few months, I could vacuum it every day and take out lots of fuzz. After one year's use, that has greatly diminished, although I can still get some fuzz out of it. The one thing I have noticed is that I need to sweep the hardword floor more often. Because the flooring is a dark cherry, the lint from the rug does tend to "dust" my floor more often, but in fairness, I have to sweep the floor every day anyway b/c the dark wood shows everything. There were a couple of small areas on the rug where the fibers kind of "popped up" like loose threads at about the 3-6 month range. Although that concerned me, I cut those off with scissors and I have not had any "repeat offenders" and no more threads have done that. The rug is thick and durable, but again, please note that while I have a lot of foot traffic on my rug, we have no small children and no shoes are allowed in the house. You will have to decide how that affects your decision. Despite my concerns with purchasing such an expensive rug (in my pocketbook) off the internet, I am so glad that I did!
Love the rug, it is plush with muted beige and green colors. It fits our dining room perfectly. Very pleased. The red gives it a little pop of color. The other reviewers were right on here!
A little linty as discribed by other reviewers but not to bad. Expected for a good quality wool rug. Great colors, very similar to what was shown on website.

Providing Fast, Secure Wi-Fi Solutions
Although there are other wireless technologies that use access points, the term generally refers to a Wi-Fi network. Access points are stand-alone devices that plug into an Ethernet switch or hub; however, access point functionality is also built into a router. If more than one access point is needed, like a cellular phone system, users can roam with their mobile devices and be handed off from one cell to another. Access points are similar to cell phone towers, but transmit shorter distances. Burlington Telecom can incorporate these access points into a business solution, which will allow employees and clients to roam the network from any location of any size, from very small to huge.

I can dream, can't I?
I just finished one of the most enjoyable books I've read in a long time. On Rue Tatin was a Christmas gift from The Boy, who understands both my love of food memoirs AND true tales of people escaping from their humdrum lives. On Rue Tatin is a bit of each.
This extraordinary memoir details an American woman's journey from her life in Seattle to living in a 15th-century convent in Louviers, France. Susan Loomis graduated from journalism school knowing she wanted to be a food writer. Thinking she needed to learn more about cooking, she took a job as an apprentice at a Parisian cooking school.
|Loomis's incredible home.
Still, On Rue Tatin is a lyrical love letter to France. Interspersed with recipes, Loomis brings the setting and people of her new home to life, and you instantly understand what drew her to this place. While France has never been on the top of my list of places to see, reading this book made me wish to join her there, to meet her wonderful friends, to peek into the shops and bakeries and cafes she describes so well, to walk those centuries-old streets and touch history on every corner.
Unfortunately, this heaven comes at a steep price. Her six-day course (three-day courses are also available, but what would be the point of coming all that way for three days?) is almost $4,000 US, and that doesn't include airfare, room and board, or transportation once you get there. Ouch.
Still, it's fun to dream, and this is a beautiful dream of what would be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. If nothing else, I can always read her gorgeous book and be inspired.

On 11 April 2013, University of Virginia Darden School of Business Professor Gal Raz brought Dr. Michael Oren, Israeli Ambassador to the United States, to the University of Virginia. In an event co-sponsored by U.Va.'s Darden, the Miller Center and the Woodrow Wilson Department of Politics, Raz introduced Dr. Oren by describing the Israeli entrepreneurial spirit and his experience of taking students to his home country.
"I started an MBA course in which I take 30 of our students to Israel every year for a course focusing on entrepreneurship and innovation in Israel. The most important feature of the course is that the students conduct a four-week project with an Israeli startup company to help with their strategy to penetrate the U.S. market," said Raz. "The Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C., has been very helpful in arranging the trips."
Dr. Oren provided the audience of students, faculty and community members snapshots of his time as ambassador. Each vignette demonstrated the importance of the U.S.-Israeli relationship. As an historian, Oren discussed the context of the relationship, dating back to the Puritan settlers in New England. He noted that Israel's Declaration of Independence is closely based on Thomas Jefferson's seminal document.
Oren talked about Israel's advanced technology sector and its vast number of startup companies. According to the ambassador, "Israel is a high tech giant. It has the most start-up companies in the world behind the U.S." Some of the innovations to come out of Israeli companies include intuitive searches for Internet browsers, a robotic device that allows paraplegics to walk and a special medical bandage to stem bleeding that helped save former U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords' life.
The U.S.-Israeli relationship also includes trade, and Israel is a major customer of American imports. Oren says that Israel is also an outsourcer. One example is the company Sabra that recently opened its new hummus plant in Virginia.

|This thing is really fun, excellent thin traverse moves lead to easier gator skin and horizontals. The original finish goes straight up to the top of the wall from the last bolt. There are two bolts with quicklinks just over the lip. These need to be extended with some chain really bad - even if you rapell the grating on the lip is pretty severe. Next time I get on it I'll bring some 16" pcs. of chain to fix it.

Publication history[edit]
|This section requires expansion. (November 2012)
Electro was created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, and first appeared in The Amazing Spider-Man #9 (Feb. 1964).[3]
Fictional character biography[edit]
While Maxwell Dillon, an electrical engineer and lineman, was repairing a power line, a freak lightning accident caused a mutagenic change that transformed him into a living electrical capacitor. His powers were initially weak, so he spent some time stealing electrical equipment from Stark Industries to charge himself. During this time, he was approached by Magneto, who considered him a potential recruit for his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, claiming that Dillon's power rivaled his own, but Dillon refused. The following day, Dillon was confronted by a small-time thug from whom he had been borrowing money to pay for the machinery he had needed. When the thug drew a gun on him because he had not paid back the money yet, he responded by shooting a blast of lightning through the thug's chest—the first time Dillon ever killed anybody.[4] Soon taking the name "Electro", he turned to a life of a professional criminal, his first victim being J. Jonah Jameson. Electro broke into the Daily Bugle Building and stole from Jameson's safe right in front of him. Jameson accused Spider-Man of being an alternate identity of Electro, prompting Spider-Man to prove the publisher wrong. During their first ever confrontation, Electro defeated Spider-Man using his electrically charged touch. Spider-Man eventually used a fire hose to short-circuit Electro while wearing rubber gloves to protect himself.[5]
Electro next confronted Daredevil for the first time when trying to break into the Baxter Building. He was again defeated.[6] Electro later joined the original Sinister Six, and was the first member of the group to fight Spider-Man, battling him at a Stark plant, when Spider-Man dodged a bolt of electricity he realized his powers had returned. Electro lost his power when the power was cut off by Spider-Man. Spider-Man got a card from him that led him to fight Kraven the Hunter.[7] Electro attacked the Fantastic Four at the wedding of Sue Storm and Reed Richards, under the control of Doctor Doom's mind-control machine, but due to Mister Fantastic he, like the other villains, has no memory of the incident.[8] He later recruited the second Emissaries of Evil in a plot of revenge against Daredevil for previous defeats. This group consisted of Gladiator, Stilt-Man, Leap-Frog, and the Matador.[9]
Electro was later hired by J. Jonah Jameson to defeat Spider-Man on national television.[10] He encountered Daredevil again in San Francisco, at which time he temporarily donned a modified costume.[11] He then took control of a Protarian android seeking the destruction of Omega.[12] Electro then teamed with Blizzard against Spider-Man and Daredevil.[13] Electro then attempted to aid a band of criminals escaping the Defenders.[14]
Electro later joined the Frightful Four.[15] As part of the Frightful Four, he used Spider-Man as bait to trap the Fantastic Four.[16] Subsequently, he battled the Falcon but was defeated, partly because he did not consider the Falcon to be a serious threat.[17] Electro later learned that he can electro-statically disrupt Spider-Man's wall-crawling ability.[18] The Chameleon and Hammerhead then sent the Shocker to try to recruit Electro into their organization.[19] Instead, he later accepted Doctor Octopus' invitation to rejoin the Sinister Six, and battled Spider-Man.[20]
Electro has fought Spider-Man countless times, either on his own or as part of a group such as the Sinister Six. He has also fought such other heroes as Daredevil, Fantastic Four, and the New Avengers. Despite his immense power, he has almost always been defeated, usually as a result of his foes outsmarting him or taking advantage of his weakness to water while charged.
As a result of his frequent and often embarrassing defeats, Electro tried to take over New York City's power supply in an attempt at glory and respect. Spider-Man thwarted this plan, however, and convinced Electro to quit his criminal career. When Kaine (Spider-Man's insane clone) started killing enemies of Spider-Man, Electro began to fear for his life and temporarily joined Mysterio's Sinister Seven, which had been formed to combat Kaine. This group was quickly disbanded, and following Kaine's subsequent disappearance, Electro returned to retirement.
This changed when the Rose agreed to fund an experimental technique that would amplify Electro's abilities, in exchange for Electro's services as an enforcer. Seeing this as a chance to rise above the string of failures that had made up so much of his life, Electro underwent the procedure. After paying off his debt to the Rose by defeating several members of The True Believers (an offshoot of the famous ninja sect called the Hand), a group of ninja assassins who had been interfering in the Rose's operations, Electro attempted to demonstrate his newly amplified powers to the world, once again attempting to take control of New York City's power supply. Wearing an insulated suit, Spider-Man stopped him. Electro, in an effort to make a final grand gesture, threw himself into the Hudson River while his body was highly charged, seemingly killing himself in an explosion.
Somehow surviving, Electro resurfaced later as part of the re-formed Sinister Six, formed to kill Senator Stewart Ward and Doctor Octopus (whom the other members of the Six now hated due to his arrogance). His powers had seemingly reverted to their pre-amplification level, and he wore a new blue-and-white costume. When Venom betrayed his fellow Sinister Six members, attempting to kill them one by one, he attacked Electro and left him for dead. Once again, Electro survived, and when he next appeared had returned to his yellow-and green-costume.
Electro was working with the Vulture[21] when they were attacked by Spider-Man who thought they had kidnapped his Aunt May.[volume & issue needed] Electro managed to bring Spider-Man to the edge of defeat, using his powers in more intelligent ways and blowing up a large number of cars, including some with children in them. After a devastating battle, Spider-Man defeated him by fighting him to a gas refinery. The badly wounded Electro recovered fairly quickly, and shortly afterwards joined the Sinister Twelve, assembled by the Green Goblin, though he and the rest of the team was defeated thanks to the intervention of the Fantastic Four, Daredevil, Captain America, Iron Man and Yellowjacket.[volume & issue needed]
Later, separately, he was hired by the Skrull Pagon (posing as Elektra) to free Karl Lykos (also known as Sauron) from The Raft, a maximum-security prison for supervillains.[22] After causing a riot, Electro tried to run away with his waitress girlfriend, but was captured by the New Avengers, subsequently fainting when faced with the prospect of being beaten up by Luke Cage, using Spider-Man's webbing to protect himself from Electro.[23]
Later, Electro joined Chameleon's "Exterminators",[1] seeking to take advantage of Peter Parker and his loved ones.
During the Civil War storyline, Electro was among the villains in Hammerhead's unnamed villain army when Iron Man and S.H.I.E.L.D. raided the hideout.[24]
In Secret Invasion, Electro appears as member of Hood's crime syndicate and attacked a Skrull force. After the Skrull posing as Jarvis kidnaps the baby of Luke Cage and Jessica Jones, the Avengers and the Fantastic Four begin going after everyone who is associated with the Skrulls. Because of this, Electro is confronted by Wolverine in an alley where, after a battle, he leaves Dillon beaten and unconscious.[25]
Electro returns in The Gauntlet, with a new look as his face is now scarred with lightning bolts. The revamp was explained by writer Mark Waid, stating that artist Paul Azaceta "tweaked the design a bit, adding some burn scars to reflect Electro's current situation. As Electro gets older, as his body chemistry starts to shift into middle age, his powers are becoming more erratic and less easy for him to control. So he turns to a surprise Marvel villain - someone rarely, if ever, seen in the pages of Amazing - to level up."[26] During his appearance in "The Guantlet", it is revealed that Electro has lost control over his powers: besides the physical disfigurment, his touch is now 100% lethal. Depressed and angry at the world because of this, Electro begins gathering other outcasts and misfits into a group known as "Power To The People", which targets right-wing newspaper baron Dexter Bennett and the New York Stock Exchange in the wake of the 2008 Financial Crisis. Electro's group manages to gain positive coverage in the media, hampering Spider-Man's ability to convince Electro's followers of his true evil nature.[27] Electro's duplicitous nature causes him to betray his followers in order to align with the amoral Bennett in exchange for help finding a way to restore his powers to a controllable level. The Mad Thinker is able to come up with a process to cure Electro, but Spider-Man interferes with the process, turning Electro into an artificial electrical thunderbolt. Furious, Electro double-crosses Bennett and ultimately uses his new powers to destroy The DB building, crippling Bennett in the process. In doing so, Electro uses up so much of his newfound power that Spider-Man is able to neutralize him with his webbing.[28] In the epilogue, Electro runs into Sasha Kravinoff and Chameleon in his new jail cell.[29] In the following issue involving Sandman, it is revealed that Electro has escaped.[30] Under the orders of the Kravinoffs, he breaks the Vulture (Jimmy Natale) out of prison.[31]
During the Heroic Age storyline, it is suspected by the Young Allies that Electro had a discarded and disavowed daughter named Aftershock (similar to the MC2 Universe version) who is a member of the Bastards of Evil.[32] When Young Allies members Firestar and Gravity fight Electro, he defeats them. He let them live so that they can spread the message that he does not endorse Aftershock and the Bastards of Evil's terrorism. He also says they can look up how and when he got his powers on the internet and there no way a girl of Aftershock's age could have been conceived after he got his powers: It's impossible for him to be Aftershock's father.[33]
Electro is later present at the scene where Mattie Franklin is sacrificed by Sasha Kravinoff as part of a ritual that resurrects Vladimir Kravinoff as a large humanoid lion creature.[34]
During the "Origin of the Species" storyline, Electro is among the supervillains invited by Doctor Octopus to join his supervillain team where they are promised that they will receive a reward in exchange for securing some specific items.[35] Electro goes after Spider-Man for Menace's infant. Anticipating Spider-Man's plan to deliver the infant to a hospital, Electro waits at the nearest hospital in Spider-Man's area until Spider-Man shows up. The two begin to battle until Sandman interferes and Spider-Man tricks Electro into electrocuting Sandman, turning him into glass. Flying shards of glass hit Electro, temporarily stunning him and allowing Spider-Man to escape.[36] Spider-Man goes on an angry rampage against all the villains after the Chameleon tricks him into thinking the infant is dead. He defeats Electro in Vinegar Hill, Brooklyn.[37]
In the Big Time storyline, Electro becomes a member of Doctor Octopus' new Sinister Six and helps Chameleon break into an air force base in New Jersey.[38] Electro was with the Sinister Six when it came to fighting Intelligencia. During a conflict between the Intelligencia and the Sinister Six, Mad Thinker was able to briefly deactivate Electro's powers, but was caught off-guard when Electro physically attacked him instead, the surprise of the attack allowing Electro to defeat Mad Thinker.[39] During the Ends of the Earth storyline, despite the Sinister Six being prepared for a fight with the Avengers, Electro was the first of the team to be defeated, being hurled into the upper atmosphere by Thor while distracted by his inability to attack Spider-Man's new hi-tech armor.[40]
Electro returns to Earth and attempts to avenge himself on Thor by forcing an A.I.M. scientist to convert him to generate protons instead of electrons, but he is defeated when Superior Spider-Man (Doctor Octopus' mind in Spider-Man's body) manages to convert him into a stream of protons and traps him. Superior Spider-Man places Electro in containment next to Sandman in his hidden underwater lab.[41] Electro, Chameleon, Sandman, Mysterion, and the Vulture are later seen as part of a team led by Superior Spider-Man called the "Superior Six". Superior Spider-Man has been temporarily controlling their minds in order to redeem them for their crimes. He does this by forcing them do heroic deeds against their will some of which almost get some of them killed. Every time he is done controlling them, he puts them back in their containment cells.[42] They eventually break free of Superior Spider-Man's control and attempt to exact revenge on the wall-crawler, while nearly destroying New York in order to do so.[43] With the help of Sun Girl, Superior Spider-Man is barely able to stop the Superior Six.[44]
Electro was seen battling the Punisher in Los Angeles, California.[45]
Following the conclusion of The Superior Spider-Man storyline returning the true Spider-Man, Electro comes into the Bar With No Name and is introduced to the Hobgoblin's servants by his friend and bartender Deke. The villains start joking about the gloomy Electro. One mentions how Thor launched him into space. Another about how "Spider-Man" made him part of the Superior Six. And yet another about how Electro was taken out by the Punisher despite the latter's lack of powers. Electro gets angry and starts sparking, but the bartender gets the situation under control by commenting on how bad the Punisher is and with compliments like breaking so many villains out of the Raft, which earned him the respect of Crossbones and Count Nefaria. This does not stop the others, however. Determined to get respect, Electro heads back over to the Raft, ready for another breakout despite Green Goblin having done the same just recently and the fact that it was re-christened as Spider-Island II. He sends a blot of electricity around, but it grows excessively big, and Electro cannot turn it off. He finally exhausts all of his power, but when this happens he passes out and many of the villains he tried to break out are now dead. Vowing revenge, Electro soon realizes what caused this to happen to him about experiments of "Spider-Man".[46] Peter Parker is having Parker Industries test out an anti-Electro netting when it comes to capturing Electro.[47] Electro is later seen with Black Cat when they raid Eel's hideout where Electro defeats Eel. Electro and Black Cat later crash the meeting between Mister Negative and Phil Urich (who is leading the remnants of the Goblin Underground as the self-proclaimed Goblin King) where they throw Eel's body into the area where the meeting is. During Peter Parker's interview on the Fact Channel, Electro attacks the security team on the channel and Black Cat arrives announcing her demand that if Spider-Man does not show up in fifteen minutes, Peter Parker will be dead. Electro complains about the plan but Black Cat stays determined that Spider-Man will show up, but then Silk arrives to confront the both, giving Peter the time to change into Spider-Man and jump into action naming Silk. As she battles against Electro and Spider-Man deals with Black Cat, J. Jonah Jameson remains on the channel forcing the cameraman to film the action. Electro fails to stop Silk, but Black Cat deviate one of Electro's bolts hitting Spider-Man, knocking him down in the process.[48] Electro pressures Sajani into telling him how effective the Anti-Electro traps will be in removing his powers, but Black Cat interrupts their talk in order to ask her about how the device works. They both infiltrate the demonstration suiting Electro into the "Fake Electro" costume while Black Cat disguises herself as one of the operators. Black Cat starts the machine, further enhancing Electro's power only to be interrupted by Spider-Man and Silk. Electro tries to escape but his insulated webbing protects him by allowing Silk to cover Electro with her webbing. Black Cat changes the plan using the wiring to overload Electro by putting his powers way out of control shooting his lightning bolts against the helicopter, Silk rescues the helicopter and Spider-Man jumps into the machine, using his webbing to cover Electro in order to take him out of there. Electro asks to let go, but Spider-Man remains determined to save him until they both are saved by Silk who pulls them out of the machine from the explosion which failed to kill Spider-Man as Black Cat wanted and escapes. However, Electro was apparently depowered and taken into custody.[49]
Powers and abilities[edit]
An unusually configured magnetic field was created when Dillon was struck by lightning while holding live, high-tension wires and a wound reel of one-inch cable, granting him superhuman powers. Electro can generate massive quantities of electricity, theoretically up to approximately one million volts. He can employ this electrostatic energy as lightning arcs from his fingertips, and his maximum charge is more than enough to kill a normal human.
When his body is charged to high levels, he becomes superhumanly strong and fast. He can also glide over power lines by using the electricity contained therein for propulsion, and he has on occasion been shown to actually ride on lightning bolts. During a stint in prison, Doctor Octopus gave him the ideas of ionizing metals and sparking the petroleum in the fuel tank of a vehicle as a way to generate explosions. He can charge himself up to make himself more powerful. He can also absorb the energy of electrical equipment such as a power plant to increase his powers further.
In New Avengers, he was shown to fly and manipulate large amounts of electricity and machinery, when he freed all the prisoners at Ryker's Island.[volume & issue needed]
An experimental procedure heightened his powers, allowing Electro to store and absorb a seemingly limitless amount of electricity. He also seemed to gain the power over magnetism to a certain degree, allowing him to manipulate magnetic fields and move objects in a manner similar to that of Magneto, and could overcome his old weakness to water by using the electromagnetic fields around him to vaporize water before it could touch him. He made Spider-Man beg by stimulating the bioelectric currents in his brain, and was able to defeat Nate Grey by manipulating said currents in Nate's brain to turn his own psionic powers against him.
Electro can override any electrically powered device and manipulate it according to his mental commands.
By using an external electrical power source to recharge his body's energy reserves, Electro could expend electricity indefinitely without diminishing his personal reserves. When he is fully charged, Electro is extremely sensitive to anything that may "short circuit" him, such as water.
Electro propels himself along magnetic lines of force in objects that have great electrical potential, such as high-tension electrical lines. He can also create electrostatic bridges to traverse upon, at the cost of a great expenditure of energy.
During the events of the storyline "The Gauntlet", Electro became a living artificial thunderbolt, allowing him to travel through electrical appliances such as going through a light bulb and exiting through any other electronic device connected to the power source.[volume & issue needed] He was also able to transmit himself over Spider-Man's web.[volume & issue needed]
Other versions[edit]
House of M[edit]
In the House of M reality, Electro is one of Rhino's friends (along with Vulture and Ox) who helped him attack and detain the Green Goblin for ruining the best chance at a good life Rhino ever had.[50]
Marvel Zombies Return[edit]
Another Electro appears as a member of the Sinister Six that battles the reality-jumping zombie Spider-Man. When the zombified Spider Man is behind him, he was bitten on the hand. Then Electro is decapitated and infected, later helping his fellow members in devouring Peter Parker's friends. Angered and devastated, the zombie Spider-Man then obliterates his body for what he and the team has done when his arm is snapped off and Spider-Man uses his powers against him.[51]
In the MC2 alternate future, Electro has a daughter, Allison Dillon, who is emotionally troubled over never having had a stable father-figure in her life and becomes the supervillain Aftershock.[52] She had inherited her father's powers, but because Dillon and Allison's electrical auras are different, the slightest touch causes them intense pain. When Dillon discovers his daughter is following in his footsteps, he asks Spider-Man for help. Spider-Man, Spider-Girl, and the Avengers help subdue Aftershock. When Dillon shows up, father and daughter vow to overcome their pain, and Max promises to be a better father.[53]
Spider-Man: Reign[edit]
In the Spider-Man: Reign reality, Electro is one of the villains released by Edward to destroy Spider-Man; he is killed by Spider-Man after being knocked into Hydro-Man (who also dies) causing him to short circuit.[54]
Ultimate Electro[edit]
The Ultimate Marvel incarnation of Electro has been reimagined with powers as a product of bioengineering. Unlike his mainstream counterpart, this version is bald, wears a black leather outfit and has some grotesque burn scars. As a result of experimentation by Justin Hammer, Max Dillon is given the power to control and create electricity. He is sold by Hammer to the Kingpin in exchange for a real estate development contract.[55] When Spider-Man breaks into Kingpin's office, Electro electrocutes him and he, the Enforcers, and Kingpin unmask him, revealing him to be a teenager. They decide to throw him out a window but Spider-Man returns and defeats him.[56] His defeat changes Electro's powers, making him reach a more powerful blue electrified form during which he can fly and perform greater feats. Electro later escapes from federal custody, murdering several people in the process. The Ultimates re-apprehend him and place him in S.H.I.E.L.D. custody along with Sandman, Kraven the Hunter, Doctor Octopus and Norman Osborn but the five supervillains escape and become the Ultimate Six.[57] They attack S.H.I.E.L.D. and manage to capture Spider-Man. They tie him to a chair, torture and humiliate him, and force him to join them. In a battle with the Ultimates on the White House lawn, Thor defeats Electro. He eventually escapes and is hired by Bolivar Trask to gauge Venom's power. Electro leads Venom on a chase throughout Manhattan when Spider-Man appears. Electro knocks Spider-Man out and tries to kill him, but Venom attacks Electro, trying to take Electro's opportunity to kill the fallen hero. Venom defeats Electro by destroying the neon signs that Electro is feeding on. When S.H.I.E.L.D. arrives Venom flees, and Electro is once again brought into S.H.I.E.L.D. custody. The Green Goblin later breaks Electro out of the supervillain prison within the Ultimates' headquarters, the Triskelion, in exchange for Electro's alliance when needed.[58] Electro goes to Osborn's penthouse to wait for instructions where he is disturbed by Spider-Man. He attempts to flee and gets involved in a fight both with Spider-Man and S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. He is eventually brought down and is assumed to be back in custody.[59]
Alongside the rest of the Ultimate Six, Electro plays a role in the "Death of Spider-Man" storyline. Norman breaks him and the rest out of the Triskelion and wishes for them to kill Peter Parker.[60] After Doctor Octopus tries to leave the group but is killed by Green Goblin, the remaining five (Electro, Green Goblin, Sandman, Kraven and Vulture) go to Parker's home in Queens. There a fight ensues between the Five and both Johnny Storm and Bobby Drake. The two heroes are defeated, with Electro himself defeating Iceman by sending a jolt of electricity through his ice, but not before Johnny manages to knock Osborn out. Peter then arrives, wearing his Spider-Man costume but no mask, and proceeds to fight the four remaining members. After a pitched battle, Electro is about to deliver the killing shot on the beaten and exhausted Peter. But before he can strike, Electro is shot three times from behind by Aunt May. He 'short circuits' in a massive electrical surge, taking out Kraven, Sandman and Vulture.[61]
Later, Electro is shown to have survived the shooting, and is being held in S.H.I.E.L.D. custody. Electro is able to power up and attempt an escape after being improperly sedated by a S.H.I.E.L.D. nurse. After taking down Iron Man, Spider-Woman and Hawkeye, Electro fights Nick Fury and the new Spider-Man (Miles Morales), thinking the latter is the original and angry that he is still alive. Morales stuns Electro by hitting him with a hurled crate, then Fury shoots him to end the threat.[62]
In other media[edit]
- Electro made a cameo appearance on The Marvel Super Heroes episode "Dr. Doom's Day" (which was a Sub-Mariner segment).
- Electro made three appearances in the 1960s Spider-Man animated series, voiced by Tom Harvey. In his first appearance in the episode "Electro the Human Lightning Bolt", he robs J. Jonah Jameson's house which Spider-Man is blamed for. Finally, he is defeated at an amusement park with a new webbing that conducts electricity. Spider-Man then hangs the webbing containing Electro outside of the window to Jameson's office. In the episode "Killowat Caper", he breaks out of jail using a kite during a storm to recharge himself. He then tries to force the city to pay him a fortune by turning off the electriciy, but is caught in another anti-electric web by Spider-Man which powered up the light signs put together by Spider-Man that says to the authorities below 'Wait for the battery to go out.'. In the episode "To Catch a Spider", Dr. Noah Boddy springs Electro, Green Goblin and Vulture from prison and coordinates them into attacking Spider-Man. But Spider-Man makes them fight with ventriloquism, Electro blasts the Vulture from the sky and is knocked out with a pumpkin bomb thrown by Green Goblin and is left webbed up with Green Goblin and Vulture as Spider-Man catches Dr. Noah Boddy.
- Electro was the main villain in Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends, voiced by Allan Melvin. In the episode "Videoman", he creates Videoman in order to help him defeat Spider-Man, Iceman and Firestar. Electro later made a cameo appearance in "Attack of the Arachnoid" where he was seen as an inmate at Ryker's Island.
- Originally, Electro was not to appear in the 1990s Spider-Man: The Animated Series, because the series did not want to interfere with the continuity of James Cameron's proposed Spider-Man movie in which Sandman and Electro were supposed to be the villains, in which he was super-powered industrialist Carlton Strand.[63] Although Sandman remained unseen in the series when Cameron's film fell through, Electro was belatedly introduced in the series' fifth season. Electro appears in the fifth season's "Six Forgotten Warriors" storyline, voiced by Philip Proctor. This version is Rheinholt Schmidt, a German who has masqueraded as Russian police chief Rheinholt Kragov for most of his life. He spent many years searching for his father Red Skull and then impersonated his father in an attempt to gain control of the doomsday weapon, an unknown aid in which his father believed would help the Nazis win World War II. When he had trapped Spider-Man, Kingpin and the Insidious Six, Kingpin unmasked Red Skull to be Rheinholt where Kingpin commented that the real Red Skull would have broken free from his grip. The encounter with Kingpin and the Insidious Six left him without the box containing the secret information on the project. After Chameleon (Kragov's step-brother) turned traitor on Kingpin, he had the box and all the keys to use the Doomsday weapon. After Red Skull was freed from the vortex, he used the Doomsday weapon on Kragov transforming him into Electro. Angry at his father for risking his life with the Doomsday Device, he decides to take over the world himself. However, Spider-Man tricks him into being trapped in an energy vortex, which is then destroyed. The incarnation is also influenced by the 1950s Atlas Comics' Electro, a Russian creature who also battled Captain America.
- A Counter-Earth version of Electro appears in the Spider-Man Unlimited episode "Ill-Met By Moonlight", voiced by Dale Wilson. He is a Bestial electric eel possessing electrokinetic powers. In the episode, Electro is a guard in the High Evolutionary's main base Wundagore Castle. Throughout his fight with Electro, Spider-Man also references the original Electro.[64]
- Electro appears in Spider-Man: The New Animated Series, voiced by Ethan Embry.[citation needed] Max Dillon is Peter Parker's geeky high school friend who attends Empire State University. He first appears as a college friend of Parker's in the episode "Head Over Heels" in a minor role. In the subsequent episode "The Party", he is transformed into an electrical creature after being covered in an unknown substance and then struck by lightning. He immediately pursues revenge on fellow students who bullied him, even killing their leader Doug Reisman before Spider-Man weakened him and forced him to retreat into an underground electrical system. Electro reappears in the episode "When Sparks Fly", where he had been hiding out to regain his power. He planned to transform Sally Thompson, a girl he liked into a being like himself for companionship, but he was trapped in a HVSC (High Voltage Storage Container) battery by Spider-Man, Mary Jane Watson and Harry Osborn, then thrown to the bottom of the Hudson River.
- Electro appears in The Spectacular Spider-Man, voiced by Crispin Freeman. This version is an electrical repairman and a friend of Dr. Curt Connors. In the episode "Interactions", Max Dillon is electrocuted in a freak accident after his power drill falls onto a damaged computer console: when he tries to pick it up, the resulting electrical shock sends him flying against a specialized tank holding genetically altered electric eels, becoming exposed to the substance inside. Although Max survived, his body became an unstable living electrical capacitate. He is then forced to wear an insulated body suit to contain the bio-electricity being produced in order to protect others around him, especially his face which had transformed into an electrical field. After an encounter with Spider-Man, Max goes berserk and takes up the 'Electro' name after Spider-Man called him that on their first encounter. Electro then rushes out to Dr. Connors's lab, demanding that Connors cure him. He is interrupted by Spider-Man again and the two battle. Spider-Man defeats Electro by tossing him into a swimming pool which short-circuits him, knocking him unconscious.[65][66] Electro reappears in the episodes "Group Therapy",[67] "Reinforcements",[68] and "Growing Pains".[69] He originally wanted to be returned to his normal self, but several subsequential appearances shows that he appears to have lost hope in having a normal life.
- Electro appears on the Ultimate Spider-Man series, voiced by Christopher Daniel Barnes.[70] Spider-Man previously fought Electro (in his original costume) several times. In the self-titled episode "Electro", Spider-Man manages to taser him against J. Jonah Jameson's large television screen but Electro manages to disappear into the screen. Electro then appears in a hyper-electrified form (which resembles his Ultimate Marvel form) and holds the city's electricity for ransom. Electro takes over Spider-Man's Spider-Cycle which takes him straight into town. Spider-Man manages to anticipate where Electro is as Electro charges the tram Spider-Man's team is on towards its station. Spider-Man's team finds Electro in a part of town where he starts to turn some of the nearby electronic devices into weapons. Electro then attacks Spider-Man as he remembers that the large television screen had super-charged him. Electro then heads to the Federal Reserve as Spider-Man and Nova follow him. Electro then takes over Spider-Man's electrical web containers and fires at a building crane as a diversion so that he can get into the Federal Reserve. Spider-Man's team catches up to Electro in the vault as Spider-Man tells his team that they must act like a team to take down Electro. Spider-Man comes up with a plan that involves him heading to the satellite above the Daily Bugle which launched him into the orbiting satellites. After defeating Batroc the Leaper, Spider-Man swings towards the large television screen that Electro is in. As Electro emerges from the screen, Spider-Man's team takes out the Electro clones that emerge from their electronics. Electro loses control and emerges from the screen in normal form and has been confused from the Electro clones that he has been controlling. Spider-Man then knocks out Electro. In the episode "The Sinister Six", Electro appears as a member of Doctor Octopus's Sinister Six and is once again in his hyper-electrified form. During the fight at the Statue of Liberty between Spider-Man's team and the Sinister Six, Electro was defeated by Nova. While Lizard got away, the other Sinister Six members were apprehended by S.H.I.E.L.D. with Electro anchored down in his cell in which he is standing surrounded by water. In the episode "Return of the Sinister Six", Electro is sprung from Ryker's Island and armored up with stolen OsCorp tech with the reassembled Sinister Six. Electro fights Spider-Man then Nova and assists the group's gang assault on Iron Patriot but is eventually defeated by Spider-Man.
- Jamie Foxx portrays Maxwell "Max" Dillon / Electro in the 2014 film The Amazing Spider-Man 2.[71] Foxx revealed that the character would be redesigned to be more grounded, and that the villain's classic yellow and green suit would not be used in favor of a modern look.[72] This incarnation of the character is African American, as opposed to the comics, where he is caucasian.[73] In the film, Max is an electrical engineer at Oscorp and a "nobody" who idolizes Spider-Man after being saved by him in a battle against Aleksei Sytsevich before getting transformed in an accident while fixing a power line, electrocuting him and causing him to fall into a tank full of electric eels. He realizes that his newly gained powers make the world finally recognize him, having been shunned, humiliated and ignored his entire life. When he believes Spider-Man to be stealing his recognition, Max's mental instability results in him turning against Spider-Man when they faced him in Times Square and fails to protect him from the police, thinking he set him up. Max is subdued and held captive in Ravencroft to be researched where he adopts the name "Electro", but is later broken out by Harry Osborn, who needs his powers to break back into Oscorp to find a cure for his terminal illness. Electro agrees and is given a new suit to control his powers. After they successfully break into Oscorp, Harry allows Electro to take over the electrical grid he designed, manipulating it to control the electricity in New York so that the citizens will see him as a god. Spider-Man eventually stops him by electro-magnetically charging his web-shooters to prevent Electro overloading them and then using his webs to reconnect the electrical grid that Electro had damaged, while Gwen Stacy redirected the power onto them. This allows Spider-Man to overload Electro with his own electricity, causing him to explode. Jamie Foxx has hinted towards an Electro return in a sequel.

- Electro appears in the video game The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (based on the 2014 film The Amazing Spider-Man 2), voiced by Michael A. Shepperd.[citation needed] When Oscorp is attacked by the Russian Mob and Shocker's gang during a gang war after Carradine is killed by Cletus Kasady, Max Dillion is one of the few employers who were held hostage until Spider-Man shows up rescue him and the other Oscorp employees, and need his help to fix the building's engine, so Spider-Man could stop the gang war between Russians and Shocker's gang. After Kingpin unleashed his "anti-crime task force", Ravencroft (with help of Kingpin's force) had Max transforms into Electro after an accident at Oscorp. Throughout his journals in the game each one shows his descent into madness and anger as he realizes he now has the power for people to notice him and that he would make everyone who didn't notice him pay. Upon Spider-Man trying to hack into Kingpin's computer to get proof that he sold his criminal empire to another criminal gang Electro is unleashed and causes a massive city blackout. Spider-Man defeats him single handedly, with Electro overloading his power and exploding.
Live performances[edit]
- Electro is one of the villains on The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man ride at the Islands of Adventure theme park at Universal Orlando Resort, voiced by Jim Wise. He is a member of the Sinister Syndicate, and attacks guests with an electrical power cable to shake their vehicle with electricity. During the climax on the rooftops of New York, he attacks Spider-Man but hits Hydro-Man instead, accidentally knocking himself out due to his exposure to water. He is last seen webbed up with the rest of the Syndicate.
- Electro also appears as a member of the Sinister Six in Julie Taymor's Broadway theatre show based on the comic series, Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, in which he was originally played by actor Emmanuel Brown.[78]
- Electro will appear in the Marvel Universe: LIVE! stage show.[79]
During an interview with Newsarama about The Gauntlet and Grim Hunt, Mark Waid claimed that the character of Electro is "one of the smart criminals who was saving what he's been stealing from banks and savings and loans". He also described Electro as the "anti-bailout guy".[80]
A Comics Bulletin review published by Ray Tate of Young Allies #2 described Electro's appearance in that issue as "a punk with a gimmick". He also claimed that the character "never harbored a pathological hatred of Spider-Man", and that he instead "developed a healthy loathing for Spidey because the Wall Crawler frequently interfered with his sole goal of larceny". Ray believes that Electro "isn't a wanton psychopath", but a "bank robber with electrical powers", and that he is "not nuts" but "a felon". These remarks show that Electro's character is received not as being mentally ill, but simply a thieving villain.[81]
