The Comedy Store is a comedy club located in West Hollywood, California, at 8433 Sunset Boulevard on the Sunset Strip. It has a sister comedy club in La Jolla, San Diego, California.[1]
The Comedy Store was opened in April 1972 by comedians Sammy Shore and Rudy DeLuca. The building was formerly the home of Ciro's, a popular Hollywood nightclub owned by William Wilkerson, and later a rock and roll venue,[2] where The Byrds were discovered in 1964.
When the venue reopened as The Comedy Store in 1972, it included a 99-seat theatre, where Johnny Carson was one of the first comics to perform.[3] As a result of a divorce settlement, Sammy Shore's ex-wife Mitzi Shore began operating the club in 1973, and she was able to buy the building in 1976. She immediately renovated and expanded the club to include a 450-seat main room.[3]
Job action[edit]
Beginning in 1979, The Comedy Store served for many years as the host location for the annual HBO Young Comedians specials. Also that year, stand-up comedians formed a short-lived labor union and demanded to be paid for their appearances at the Comedy Store.
For five weeks, several famous comedians staged a protest in front of the club, while others crossed the picket line. The comedians involved formed a union called Comedians for Compensation and fought for pay where they had received none before. They eventually picketed in front of the club when their demands were not met. Jay Leno and David Letterman were amongst those on the picket line while Garry Shandling and Yakov Smirnoff crossed the line.[4]
The job action was not legally a strike as the comedians were classified as "independent contractors" and were not under contract with the club.
Mitzi Shore argued that the club was and had always been a showcase and training ground for young comedians and was not about profits. She alleged that comedians came to the club and could work on their material in front of casting agents and other talent scouts who would possibly hire them as professionals if they were good enough.
The comedians at the club became unhappy when the club was expanded several times and it was perceived that Shore's profits were quite substantial. Shore also paid the rest of her staff, including waitresses and bartenders.
After the strike some comedians were no longer allowed to perform at the club, including Steve Lubetkin, who committed suicide in front of the building by jumping off the roof of the Continental Hyatt House next door. His suicide note included the line: "My name is Steve Lubetkin. I used to work at the Comedy Store."[5] Lubetkin hoped that his suicide would resolve the labor dispute. He also cited Shore as the reason he no longer had a job.
The union ceased to exist in 1980, although from the time of the job action onward, comedians in Los Angeles were paid for their shows. This included the Comedy Store and The Improv.
The history of the young comedians coming to Los Angeles in the 1970s and performing at the club is told in the book, "I'm Dying Up Here," by William Knoedelseder.
Unsolved Mysteries[edit]
The Comedy Store was featured in an episode of the supernatural documentary, Unsolved Mysteries, which told reports of the Comedy Store being haunted. Comedians Blake Clark and Joey Gaynor told their stories of their encounters with the paranormal.

Calcium and bones
Alternative Names
Bone strength and calcium
Calcium is a mineral that is important for making healthy bones. (Phosphorous is another important mineral for healthy bones.)
Calcium cannot be made by the body. The body gets the calcium it needs through the food you eat. If you do not get enough calcium in your diet or if your body does not absorb enough, your bones can get weak or not grow properly.
Bone density refers to how much calcium and other types of minerals are present in a section of your bone. Bone density is highest between ages 25 - 35. It goes down as you get older. This can result in brittle, fragile bones that are prone to fractures, even without injury.
As you age, your body still needs calcium to keep your bones dense and strong. Most experts have recommended the following:
- Get at least 1,200 milligrams per day of calcium and 800 - 1,000 international units of vitamin D.
- Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium.
- Your doctor may recommend a supplement to give you the calcium and vitamin D you need.
Some expert groups are not sure the benefits and safety of this amount of Vitamin D and calcium outweigh the risks. Be sure to discuss with your doctor if supplements are a good choice for you.
Follow a diet that provides the proper amount of calcium, vitamin D, and protein. This will not completely stop bone loss, but it helps ensure that the body has a supply of the materials it needs to build bones.
High-calcium foods include:
- Cheese
- Ice cream
- Leafy green vegetables, such as spinach and collard greens
- Low-fat milk
- Salmon
- Sardines (with the bones)
- Tofu
- Yogurt

As a parent/guardian, travelling with kids can be overwhelming. In this concluding series, Okechukwu Nnodim outlines additional steps to help organise your movement when travelling with children
Travelling by air as an individual can be stressful. However, flying with little children can be very daunting. Not only do you have to worry about how they feel and behave, but also how others around you react to the disturbances or actions of your children. This has to be especially true for toddlers – with all their new-found skills for running and talking and moving about – a confined space, teeming with unfamiliar faces and surroundings do not sound ideal. So travelling with a toddler definitely presents its challenges, but planning ahead may give you at least a chance at a smooth flight. According to exerts, there is more to flying with toddlers than keeping them entertained and hoping for good behaviour on the plane
This is because there are long lines at busy airports, security checkpoint(s), boarding the plane, sitting in confined space that shakes and makes noise, not to mention puts sometimes incredible pressure on little ones' ears, and travel etiquette issues like not kicking the seats in front, and most times, all these issues are not addressed in the usual checklists. Experts note that although airport and airline personnel try to be helpful it is up to the families to prepare their children for the problems that can arise with air travel such as lengthy delays, and long line-ups. Parents should know how to coordinate their movements to avoid embarrassment at the airport and must ensure their kids are well-behaved when they arrive at the airport. It is also important to understand that flying with children can be one of those 'make or break' moments in the lives of parents, when your mettle is tested and you find out what you are made of. Fortunately, some strategic planning can help make flying with children a fun and relaxed experience for you and your kids.
Experts advise that before you travel with your kids, you should spend time researching your vacation and scouting the Internet for ideas. If during this time your child hasn't any idea of what's ahead except the destination, it should be no surprise that he or she can become overwhelmed by the journey. Most children have meltdowns on planes for one of two reasons, if not a combination of both. This is because they are confused and scared as a result of being unfamiliar with airport/airplane environments, or they are ill equipped for air travel by not allowed to move around before being expected to sit for hours in a confined space. Airports personnel say if possible you should take your child to the airport on a day you're not flying and show him or her what people are doing such as standing in lines, going through security, etc. In our previous article on this subject, some of the air travel tips to note include getting to the airport early, using a tag or ID bracelet on your child, bringing enough snacks to the airport, travelling with on-flight entertainment and asking for empty seats on the plane. Below are additional tips to help you coordinate your journey when travelling with kids, according to experts:
Go for aisle seats
In order to be more comfortable, endeavour to book aisle seats when making reservations. Experts say when making reservations, book seats together so that your whole family is sitting together. Kids like to look out the window, so book a window seat. More importantly, get a seat in the aisle so that your child's frequent bathroom breaks do not disturb fellow passengers. This, according to professionals, will help make your flying experience manageable.
Let your kids be within reach
Never let each other out of your sight so as to avoid missing them, especially when you are using the services of busy airports. The best way to be safe in crowded public places such as the airport is to never let your child out of your sight. And be sure to emphasize to your child that he should never wander away without mom or dad. That goes for using public bathrooms at airports, too. If you're travelling alone with a child of the opposite gender, use a family restroom. Make sure your child is takes permission before he leaves you and ensure you escort him, if the area is very busy.
Prepare for an emergency
You can also get your child ready for any form of emergency while flying. Experts say you should make sure your child knows his or her full name, address, and home telephone number in case you get separated. According to them, you should tell your child to ask another mommy with a child for help in the event that you become separated. These are emergency tips are vital, especially when you are travelling to a different country or embarking on a long journey.
Plan for take off and landing
Experts say if your ear pressure hurts during take off and landing, imagine what your toddler must be feeling. If your child is still nursing, plan on nursing during take off and landing. The sucking sensation will help with the ear pressure and help your child relax. If not, consider preparing a sippy cup or bottle specifically for take off and landing. A pacifier is also helpful, since it reinforces the sucking motion.
Take advantage of friendly individuals
You can take advantage of friendly flight attendants and neighbouring passengers. From the enthusiastic 10 year old girl in front of you or the flight attendant that seems to just 'love babies' take advantage of anyone that is willing to help. Allow them to interact with your child and even encourage it. Most toddlers love the attention. However, if your child becomes shy and upset when people they don't know approach them, don't be afraid to tell the strangers to back off a bit.
This may not be easy, but you have to try and relax. Travelling is stressful enough and adding a toddler to the mix isn't going to make it any easier on you. But children can pick up stress from their parents, so do your best to just relax and enjoy the flight. As you apply these tips and the ones in the first piece, you may find travelling with kids enjoyable.

Top 10 Future Oil Fields
A slideshow with maps! yay! I like maps!
Anyway, it occurred to me that the effect of this slideshow would have been much greater had they presented it differently.
6 of the 10 fields are in two clusters roughly 500 miles apart, with 4 fields in one cluster and two in the other, all of which representing (according to the article) an estimated future of 200+ billion barrels of oil.
I think the impact of the closeness of these fields far out weighs the other information that was given, and thus the message of the mapping is lost.
I've attached to images: one showing those 6 maps as the appear in the slideshow, and another merged into what, to me, is a more meaningful map. The red numbers next to the names indicate the corresponding number in the slide show.
A few things I noticed:
1. There's a heck of a lot of oil still to be retrieved in the middle east.
2. It would seem, according to this map, the oil fields have similar shapes and orientation. I'm not a geologist, but that seems puzzling to me...
3. I would be real interested in seeing the relationship of the fields that are close together - how do they know which ones they are actually drilling out of?
So, anyway....Your thoughts?

Nick Diaz hasn't returned Dana White's phone calls or text messages, and he's not that bothered by it
This article may be the last Dana White centric one of 2012. We would like to thank White for opting to include us in his inner-circle instead of imploding our brains with a blitzkrieg of verbal daggers. Unfortunately he's never invited anyone at MiddleEasy over to his massive compound in Las Vegas for a BBQ. Dana seems like a guy that probably wouldn't offer vegetarian options to a backyard cook-off anyway. Ah well, continue to eat your steak and chicken -- we'll happily consume our Tofurky and tempeh. It's the MiddleEasy way.
Nick Diaz shares our same dietary lifestyle. In fact there's even a video out there of Diaz forcing LayzieTheSavage to drink a cup of apple cider-vinegar, and then immediately projectile vomiting moments after. We're pretty certain Diaz will never venture to the dark side of animal consumption anytime soon, but when it comes to returning Dana White's phone calls -- egh, we're not so sure.

Such is our brand's creed.
But don't get it wrong, even if it's true that "Q8" brings to mind a good drinking bout with friends, that's not all it's about! Qhuit™ is above all a pretext for mixing: Fashion, Music, Street Culture and Sausage.
Created in 2002 by Rhum*G & Mook, the brand started with a few limited edition T-Shirts for alternative, alcoholic tastes. With the help of a few friends, the brand little by little found an audience in a not very commendable crowd, hence it sent a serious buzz through the hype-streetwear scene of the capital.
In 2004 Qhuit™ produced its own record, the "QHUIT™ GRAN BANG" featuring all the close friends of the crew (Svinkels, Triptik, T.T.C., D.S.L., Mr Flash, DJ Pone, Drixxxe, A.M.S., L'Animalexxx…), a UFO then took the troop on a tour where crowds came to listen to and drink to the event. Since then, Qhuit™ has organized parties and skate demos all over France.
While they were at it, in 2005 they launched their first collection: "Home Mad" offering a line of colorful geometrically imperfect tees and hoodies. Qhuit™ has built its own world in which graphics mix visual metaphores, dubious "fran-glais" puns, references to illustrious alcoholics, enticing slogans and absurd images.
From one season to the next, the brand expands its collections by offering: T-shirts, polos, shirts, hoodies, zip-ups, denims, jackets and accessories distributed in over 100 shops in Europe. The brand also plays on gender mixing since items may be worn by men as well as women. Qhuit™ is becoming, according WAD Magazine, one of the pillars of French streetwear.

Knox County Extension Agent Jeff McCutcheon finds the biggest problem in pastures is not the plant, but the plant-er.
With the break in the weather, life is good again for graziers, but the question still persists: What could I be doing now to ensure I will have enough feed for winter? The answer may be in the corn field.

While he waits around for Steven Spielberg to clear awards season and want to play with giant robots again, Chris Hemsworth has found a new way to prove he hates computers. All kinds.
He's now set to star in an untitled thriller for Michael Mann that will also involve technology somehow. According to Variety, "plot details are unknown, other than that the film takes place in a world of cyber threats and attacks." My money has him fighting to stop a mutated version of the Y2K Bug before it leaves us all in the dark. I also predict there will be a scene where Chris Hemsworth will deliver the line, "Upload this," before stabbing the lead hacker bad guy in the neck with a USB dongle then lifting him above his head and throwing him down into the whirling machinery of the giant super computer. Should Michael Mann decide to not take the film in that direction, I'm wore than willing and available to get cracking on that script.

Product Description
Our picture of the world is being shaped by quantum theory. This dialogue explores the radical, exciting implications of quantum theory for personal and social life. It offers the possibility of a new understanding of the nature of human consciousness, physical reality, God, creativity, social activity, the future of science, and more. This new understanding may change how we see ourselves, and how we relate to the world. "If we're quantum people," Zohar says, "we're completely different from what we thought we were. It has vast implications…. Instead of being strangers and gypsies on the edge of an alien world, as people said about us in the old physics, we become fully members and partners in this universe."
She is a scientist and philosopher, and the author of The Quantum Self (Quill 1990) and The Quantum Society (Morrow 1994). To learn more about the work of Danah Zohar go to www./dzohar.com
Topics Explored in this Dialogue:
- The meaning and significance of the "quantum vacuum"
- Three kinds of thinking that the human brain does
- A new view of "the mind of God"
- The implications of quantum theory for mystical spirituality
- What "Bose-Einstein condensates" tell us about reality
- The nature of consciousness, in terms of modern physics
- Humans as co-creators of physical reality
- A new dimension to "loving your neighbor as yourself"
- The story of the street people at an Oxford cafe
- How philosophy is becoming an integral part of science
- A quantum-physical view of social plurality
- The nature of creativity, order and chaos

The Department of Personnel & Civil Service Commission provides the following applicant resources:
At the close of an application period for a position recruitment, the set of submitted applications are reviewed by Personnel Analysts to determine eligibility. Applicant qualifications are considered based on the established minimum requirements. Those who are determined not eligible have the Civil Service ability to appeal the determination to the Civil Service Commission.
Some positions require a Civil Service examination as part of the process for determining eligibility. For those types of positions, candidates who meet the minimum requirements will be scheduled for the examination. Those who pass the examination will have their name added to the Civil Service Eligibility List for the position. Lists vary in how long they remain active (See Civil Service Rule IV).
For positions that do not require an examination, those who are determined eligible for a position also have their names added to the Eligibility List. Hiring City Department Directors/Bureau Chiefs use the Eligibility Lists to select candidates to interview and/or hire. Many City of Pittsburgh positions are covered under union collective bargaining agreements and therefore union employees may be given first consideration to some positions and/or be contractually obligated to some positions.
The City of Pittsburgh offers full-time employees a comprehensive benefits package which consists of:
(Benefits may be modified based on collective bargaining unit terms.)
Not all City of Pittsburgh positions require a Civil Service examination. Review our current jobs at the Online Employment Center. If a position requires a Civil Service examination it will be specified and a candidate preparation guide for the exam will be supplied online. Be sure to print out the candidate preparation guide after you apply for the position.
Before the examination, make sure that you are well rested. Testing experts say that the most sensible preparation for an examination is to get a good night's sleep. Fatigue is recognized as one of the most serious deterrents to successful test performance. Try to arrange your schedule to get a full night of sleep before the examination.
On the day of the examination, leave early to go to the testing site.You may need extra time to find the testing site or to offset delays due to traffic, parking or bad weather. Give yourself at least 30 extra minutes to arrive at the testing site to ensure that you arrive on time, calm and unhurried. Please note that if you arrive late at the testing site, you will not be permitted to take the examination.
Once the examination has started, listen carefully to all testing instructions.The more information that you have about the examination process the more confident you will feel while taking the exam. Listen specifically for information about how to fill in your answer sheet. If you fill in your identification number incorrectly on your answer sheet, the computer will not be able to assign your examination score to you. If you do not complete your answer sheet according to the directions, the computer may have difficulty reading your answers.
Listen for instructions about how much time you will be given to complete the examination and what to do when you are finished with it. Ask your proctor if you have any questions about the exam. They are there to provide appropriate help to you.
Pace yourself during the examination. Knowing how much time you have to complete the examination, you can figure out roughly the amount of time that you can spend on any one question. Answer the easy questions within each subject first, then tackle the more difficult items. Try to save some time at the end of the examination to review your responses to the more difficult questions and to check your answer sheet to be sure that you have not missed any questions.
Good luck on your next Civil Service examination!
For over one hundred years state law has recognized veterans' skills and service by awarding them a preference in government hiring. Because the application of veteran's preference has legally changed over time, we present the following update information to prospective applicants and current City of Pittsburgh employees.
Who is eligible for the preference?
Applicants honorably discharged from their full-time military commitments. Reservists and national guard members earn eligibility when they complete their full-time training and are honorably discharged from their part-time service obligations. In both cases, applicants must be honorably discharged prior to the Civil Service examination date.
Spouses of deceased or disabled veterans are also eligible for the bonus.
What positions invoke the ten-point bonus?
The City awards the bonus to applicants for entry-level competitive positions, including police officer recruit, firefighter recruit, and clerical positions.
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has recently ruled that applying the bonus to promotions is unconstitutional. Must an applicant pass the Civil Service examination to earn the points?
Yes. The veteran's preference law requires applicants to be qualified for a job before they earn the preference. Civil Service examinations determine if one is qualified for a position.
How does one apply for preference?
By filling in the application section on military information and submitting an original DD-214 to prove military service and honorable discharge.
Spouses of deceased or disabled veterans must complete the application section on military service and present the spouse's original DD-214, an original marriage certificate, and proof of the spouse's disability or death.
If you have any questions on veteran's preference, send us an e-mail. Please type "Veteran's Preference Question" in the subject line of your e-mail. Or, if you prefer, contact us at 412-255-2710.
Acceptable Documentation to Verify Legal Residence and Domicile
The Department of Personnel & Civil Service Commission will accept the following documents to verify legal residence, also known as domicile. Additionally, the City reserves the right at all times to request clarification and/or other supporting evidence and documentation to ensure that City employees are compliant with Pittsburgh Code Chapter 181.02: "All City employees and officials...shall be domiciled in the City at the time of their initial appointment and shall continuously maintain their domicile within the City throughout the terms of their employment with the City."
Under Pennsylvania law, a person can have only one legal residence or domicile. It is the place at which an individual has his fixed family home and principal establishment. Once established, an existing domicile is presumed to continue until a new one is shown to have been adopted.
One of the following documents must be presented to prove domicile and legal residence:
In addition, two of the following supporting documents, showing the City address, must be presented:
*NOTE: A letter from the representative company confirming it is establishing service for the new resident is acceptable.
Prior to purchasing or renting a place of residence, applicants and employees may call the City of Pittsburgh Department of Personnel and Civil Service Commission at 412-255-2710 to verify that the property is located within the City of Pittsburgh.
While you are either a current employee or an employment applicant with the City of Pittsburgh, you are required to notify the Department of Personnel if you change your address, telephone number or name. This is required so that we can notify you as needed regarding various employment information. If you have recently changed your address, phone number or name, please see the information sections below.
Employee Change of Address, Phone Number, and Name Notification
Please notify us within two weeks if you change your address, name, or phone number. Please visit the Department of Personnel on the Fourth Floor of the 431 City-County Building, prepared to provide us with the following information:

Please notify us as soon as you change your address, name, or phone number. Please visit the Department of Personnel on the Fourth Floor of the 431 City-County Building, prepared to provide us with the following information:
If you have only changed your phone number, you may notify us by phone by calling 412-255-2710.
