George Takei meets fans at last year's Comicpalooza.
Photo By Mark Britain
Last year's edition of Comicpalooza at the George R. Brown Convention Center was a success all around, giving Houstonians three days to mingle with one another and meet some of their favorite sci-fi idols, and, of course, to buy plenty of collectibles to fill their homes with.
The organizers have begun to announce this year's special guest appearances, and so far they have some fun names signed on to appear.
SLIDESHOW: Comicpalooza 2012
REWIND: Hottest Cosplay at Comicpalooza 2012
The names include Michelle Rodriguez; Cary Elwes; Peter Mayhew; Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's Avery Brooks and Armin Shimerman; comic-book legend Bernie Wrightson; René Auberjonois; fifth Doctor Who Peter Davison; Ian McNeice; Teen Wolf dad James Hampton; Sam Huntington; Craig Parker; novelist Kevin J. Anderson; and Alan Dean Foster.
My Little Pony voice actresses Andrea Libman and Tabitha St. Germain will no doubt be the favorite attractions of the local Bronies.
Invader ZIM voice Richard Horvitz is also on board, but I know him better as the geek from Summer School.
Most important, David Yost and Walter E. Jones, commonly known as the blue and black Power Rangers, will be there. Calling all millennials -- be sure to request this weekend off.

Historical Traveler Reviews Maingate Lakeside Resort Kissimmee
Great Value
I though the hotel was a great value. It was close to Disney and the pools were very nice. Although we had a few problems, the staff was friendly and they were fixed right away. Nobody's perfect! If there is a problem let the hotel and give them a chance to fix it. Try this hotel. I think that you will have an enjoyable stay.
Superb Hotel
I was very impressed with this hotel. Having read some of the reviews on the internet I was very unsure that we had done the right thing by booking this hotel. When we walked in we were greeted by very friendly staff, checked in quickly and was shown to our room. The room was clean and the maid service was superb. The pool was warm and there was towels provided both in the room and by the pool.I would not hesitate to stay here again or recommend it to friends.
Not what I expected
I was disapointed when we entered our room. The first thing that my eye noticed badly water stained carpeting at the doorway. Our main living area was clean and dust free, but the air conditioner was filled with mold, and smelt. The bathroom was filthy...mold build up on the tile and around the grab bar, the tub looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a long time. I ended up cleaning it myself as I would not shower in such filth. Also water temperture was not consistant while showering. The bathroom ceiling was dirty. What was good about the hotel it was very convient to the major theme parks. The pool was nice, I found the staff that I delt with friendly.
Great value for the money we spent
went there not knowing what to expect from this hotel because the price was really low, first impression was were can i find a new hotel, went in to check in and thought not so bad main entrance let's check out the rooms. we too were given a room the furthest from entrance( have to tell you that 1 minute walk to the restaurants is a killer) know matter where you stay in this hotel you have a pool, ice machine,pop machine & laundry room within a 1 minute walk & that is if you walk really really slow. this hotel is a bargin fo the money would stay again everyone was very friendly pool was great kids never wanted to leave. if you are expecting a 5 star resort pay the $ 200.us and stay some where else for the money you are paying here you really can't go wrong . i give this hotel a thumbs up.
FAR Below Expectations
I requested they switch my room because the bathtub was filthy. Unfortunately, the second room was worse. Not only was the bathtub disgusting, but there was mildew on the ceiling. I didnt ask for a third room because I was too scared to see what it would look like. I stayed because the room was paid for and I wouldnt get a refund. I bought flip-flops for the shower and a can of disinfectant at a nearby drugstore. After my first shower, there was a white stripe in the bathtub. Apparently, my flip-flops lifted the dirt off the bathtub. Don't even get me started on the mattress... DON'T STAY AT THIS HOTEL. You're on vacation - pay an extra $20 and get yourself a room youll enjoy. Believe me, you wont regret it.
Hotel this is not what you expect
We arrived in Orlando for our thought to be relaxing vacation to find out that the Four Points Sheraton did not exist and was somehow purchased by La Quinta as of Jan 01/2003. "Strike One". Only a small sign stating the change was posted and extremely hard to locate the hotel. First and foremost why were we not informed by the company that this change was to take place. "Strike Two" The staff and personnel at the resort claimed they knew the change was happening for four (4) months. La Quinta hotels and resorts may live up to a certain standard of hotels in different areas, but this one was not even close to the standard of a Four Points Sheraton. Secondly the room that was promised was not even close to our expectations. I
recommend that you stay far away from this hotel?? or
establishment until it is completely renovated unless you like dirty rooms, damp sheets, mold smelling rooms, and occasionally some running water this is your place. "Strike Three Your Out"
Sheraton four points by smelly lakeside
Arrived from England, checked in quickly. Was given a room in the furthest away block from all the amenties as possible, put this down to being from England and on a package holiday! The pool was no where in sight! First night settled into bed, got up to use the bathroom, whats that noise i thought, when there happily strolling across the side was the biggest cockroach i have ever seen! Not one to usually complain, i was straight on the phone, they did move us straight away to the room above us. The surface of the rooms were clean however look more closley and you were sure to find cobwebs and badly stained carpets. Still not being happy with the room i decided to take things up with the holiday rep the next day, they weren't very helpful, needless to say they are probably the biggest holiday provider in the uk, and they name this hotel a flagship hotel and give it 4 stars!
Arriving back at the hotel they then gave us a choice of a further 3 rooms, next to the pool which was a bit better however the standard of the rooms weren't! Decided to make the most of it however and got on with the holiday, luckily we didn't find much time to spend in the hotel! Breakfat buffet wasn't that good, other services in the hotel were very expensive, easier to walk 5 minutes onto the main road for them. Staff didn't appear friendly or welcoming.
Posistives about the trip, yes there are some!
Location for the hotel is good, transfers were good from the hotel, good location for non drivers able to walk to quite a few restraunts and shops.
We did have a fantastic time on holiday and we will be going back however not to the four points.
I'm sure if your from America and your doing Disney for the weekend on the cheap it would be satisfactory for you, but like us from England search around a bit more you will find better!
Sheraton Lakeside
Sheraton Lakeside is the best hotel we have stayed at. Stayed twice and would certainly stay again.
The hotel fell far short of our expectations.
It was not a good sign that a guest was demanding a room change as we were waiting to check in.
Our first room was dirty and the second only marginally better.
In all we saw 4 guests complaining about their room.
The whole site had the feel of having seen better days and in need of a major refurbishment.
As always we enjoyed Orlando but the only good thing that came out of staying at the Sheraton 4 Points Lakeside was the willingness of Virgin Holidays to compensate us for the poor standard of our accomodation.
sheraton is the best hotel ive ever been to!The rooms are spotless .The staff are ever so friendly . The swimming pools are big. They have a breakfast shop ,a greenhouse restaurant, an arcade , a play area and amini golf coarse . Its really close to the parks only 1.5 miles. If i had to rate it out of 100 it would be 100 it definetly deserves its four points.

Generation after generation of Americans has been hit by a defining moment of tragedy.
For many, it was the assassination of John F. Kennedy. For others, it was the killing of his brother, Robert, or the murder of Martin Luther King Jr. It might have been the death of Franklin D. Roosevelt during World War II, when victory in both the European and Pacific seemed finally within reach.
For some, it was a moment during the wars the United States fought in the 20th century and into this one. For those coming of age in this decade it surely must be September 11, 2001.
For most of my generation, though, it was December 7, 1941, the "date which will live in infamy," when Japan bombed the U.S. fleet at Pearl Harbor with devastating results.
Grown-ups were beginning the march toward Christmas. As I recall, the madness did not start in those days until well after Thanksgiving. Also, most people did not have the disposable income for the shopping sprees that are now the norm.
My family's custom was we made one gift ourselves for each family member and the children got one pretty store-bought present — a bicycle, for instance, that could be used to run errands.
That December 7, I was lying on my stomach reading the comics and listening to the Washington Redskins game broadcast on the radio. I remember hearing the public-address announcer's voice echoing the background call for high-ranking military officers to call — or report to — their offices. But no matter how many times I have looked it up, I can't remember the score of the game, or even the name of the other team.
World War II arrived in our Alexandria home in a very personal way when the colonel who lived next door came to our house. He handed my father power of attorney in case his wife needed any help selling their home or with any of the myriad challenges she and their children would face. Later, we learned that within weeks he was serving in the South Pacific and would not return to the United States until the war was over in 1945.
That one smashing attack united the country in a way unmatched since. Recruiting centers around the country were swamped with volunteers both young and old. One of the not-so-young was Paul Douglas, a U.S. senator after the war, who joined the Marines in his 40s. My father, who was about the same age, also tried to enlist but was told he would be more valuable as a civilian. He spent the war working six days most weeks with many a 15-hour or more day in the Bureau of Economic Warfare.
Washington was filled with people doing the same, as was the entire United States. An army of women arrived in Washington to fill jobs left by men going into active military duty as well as jobs created by the war effort. Factories that began pouring out the weapons and materiel to arm the military were filled with women on production-line jobs, every one of them needed.
All Americans were told they would have to sacrifice. And they did so. Food and gas rationing was accepted. People planted "victory gardens" in their yards to raise their own produce. People bought war bonds in all sorts of denominations, and children got stampbooks to fill up to buy bonds. Children collected cigarette package tin foil and cans and bottles.
No cars were produced for the duration. The auto plants had gone to war, too.
It was a far cry from the prompting that came from the White House after the September 11, 2001, attack: To go out and shop for your country — that retaliatory spending was the best ordinary Americans could do in response to the destruction of the World Trade Center in New York.
The United States was far from a perfect place in the winter of 1941, but it could collectively rise to a massive and lethal challenge to our very democratic existence. The challenge mostly was met without endangering personal liberties.
It doesn't seem we are able to meet today's challenges in the same spirit, and that's very scary.

Chris Babb led Penn State with 11 points at Temple
Dec. 7, 2009
hotos/schools/psu/sports/m-baskbl/auto_pdf/weekly-release.pdf">GAME NOTES VS UMBC
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa.; Dec. 7, 2009 - The Nittany Lion basketball team (5-3) looks to enjoy a return to the friendly confines of the Bryce Jordan Center on Tuesday when it takes on Maryland-Baltimore County (UMBC) in a 6:30 p.m. tip live on the Big Ten Network. The game can also be heard on the Penn State Sports Network (ESPN Radio 1450 locally).
The Nittany Lions wrapped up a string of five of six games away from home on Saturday with a tough 45-42 loss at Temple. The return home should help jump-start the Nittany Lion offense, which is averaging 79.0 ppg and shooting 54.2% from the floor in its three home games on the season. The Nittany Lions are 21-1 in non-conference home games the last three seasons.
Talor Battle (Albany, N.Y.) enters the game as the second leading scorer in the Big Ten posting 18.6 ppg and leads the Lions in rebounding (5.9), assists (3.3) and minutes (36.9) as well. Freshman Bill Edwards (Middletown, Ohio) has become a larger contributor after missing the first four games of the season with a partially torn MCL. The 6-6, 235-pound forward is coming off a career-high 11 rebounds at Temple and is tied with fellow freshman Tim Frazier (Houston, Texas) for fourth on the team in scoring at 7.5 ppg.
UMBC (0-7) has yet to post a win on the season but has been close in six of its seven losses and is coming off a 76-67 loss at Toledo on Saturday. The Retrievers are led by 6-5 sophomore guard Chauncey Gilliam who averages 13.7 ppg and 3.7 rpg.
The teams will be meeting for the third time in the series, but the first since Penn State took a pair of victories at the Jordan Center in February of 1992 as the Lions transitioned from the A-10 to the Big Ten Conference.
Penn State season basketball tickets, PNC Bank Flex Book plans (10 tickets to use at any game for $99) or single game tickets can be purchased by visiting GoPSUsports.com, Ticketmaster or calling 814-865-5555. Single-game tickets for Nittany Lion games are $18 for lower bowl seating, $15 for upper bowl seating and $7/$5 for youth.

Geometric Invariant Theory gives a method for constructing quotients for group actions on algebraic varieties which in many cases appear as moduli spaces parameterizing isomorphism classes of geometric objects (vector bundles, polarized varieties, etc.). The quotient depends on a choice of an ample linearized line bundle. Two choices are equivalent if they give rise to identical quotients. A priori, there are infinitely many choices since there are infinitely many isomorphism classes of linearized ample line bundles. Hence several natural questions arise. Is the set of equivalence classes, and hence the set of non-isomorphic quotients, finite? How does the quotient vary under change of the equivalence class? In this paper we give partial answers to these questions in the case of actions of reductive algebraic groups on nonsingular projective algebraic varieties. We shall show that among ample line bundles which give projective geometric quotients there are only finitely many equivalence classes. These classes span certain convex subsets (chambers) in a certain convex cone in Euclidean space, and when we cross a wall separating one chamber from another, the corresponding quotient undergoes a birational transformation which is similar to a Mori flip.

In 1941, a decade after the death of Kahlil Gibran, his good friend Witter Bynner responded to a query from a student asking about the Lebanese-born poet, artist, and philosopher. "Perhaps the best illustration I can give you of the man's personal quality," replied Bynner, "is an episode which took place at the house of Mrs. Simeon Ford (Julia Ellsworth Ford) through whom I met him."
One night at dinner there the maids failed to bring on one of the courses, and after a considerable wait and several bell ringings, Mrs. Ford rose and went to the pantry. There, behind a screen, stood two maids. When reprimanded, one of them explained, "But Mrs. Ford, how can we go about our business when Mr. Gibran is talking? He sounds like Jesus." And he did.
One night at dinner there the maids failed to bring on one of the courses, and after a considerable wait and several bell ringings, Mrs. Ford rose and went to the pantry. There, behind a screen, stood two maids. When reprimanded, one of them explained, "But Mrs. Ford, how can we go about our business when Mr. Gibran is talking? He sounds like Jesus." And he did.
The life and times of this American success story are full of such references to Gibran's apparent messiah-like qualities, and the ease with which, like a king over his subjects, he held court. An enigmatic man from an equally enigmatic land, Gibran was no slouch on matters profound, and his ability to arouse the curiosity of American High Society was an art form he exploited with consummate ease for much of his short life.
Here in America we know him principally as the author of The Prophet, the perennial bestseller which (along with millions of others) was my first foray into the world of Gibran. At first, and after being given it by my Lebanese-born father, I was not so enamored of this short mystical work with margins you could drive a herd of cattle through. At the time, I was too struck with the brutal prose of Ernest Hemingway to give way to a book of prose poems. Yet some years later I dipped into The Prophet once again, and began a literary fascination which has gripped me ever since.
Gibran Khalil Gibran was born in the picturesque village of Bsharri, in northern Lebanon, in 1883. Twelve years later, joining the waves of immigrants who sought a better life in America, he left Lebanon for Boston with his mother and three siblings. Here, the adolescent Gibran caught the attention of Fred Holland Day, a central figure in a group of Decadent poets and artists—and a man with a fondness for photographing picturesque young boys of exotic origin. Handsome and mysterious, Gibran fit the bill, and Day became his mentor, introducing the young Lebanese immigrant to the world of Romantic literature, first by reading to him aloud and then, as Gibran's English improved, lending him books and generally treating the boy as "an unspoiled genius—a type of the noble savage with which Romantic America was obsessed," as biographer Robin Waterfield wrote. By the time Gibran removed to New York in 1911, having spent his formative years as a wounded Romantic in Boston, he had already become well known in Arab-American literary circles and, before his death at 48, had largely forsaken Arabic for English.
The difference between his legacy in the Arab world and in the West is marked. In the Arab world Gibran is known as a poet at the forefront of the Romantic revolution in Arabic literature. In his early Arabic works, such as the short-story collections Nymphs of the Valley (1906) and Spirits Rebellious (1908), and his 1912 novella, The Broken Wings, and in his reams of poetry, Gibran scorned convention and raged against laws that oppressed the individual. These themes and ideas influenced the small circle of Arab romantic/revolutionary writers and poets in 1920s New York known as the Mahjar school, who used Gibran's imagination as a galvanizing force and changed the course of Arabic poetry, rejecting the scholasticism in which Arab letters had been bogged down and, under the influence of Western literature, introduced an experimental, inspirational voice into Arabic poetry, which swiftly filtered back to their native Arab lands.
In the West, of course, Gibran is known less as poet and more as prophet. He wrote a number of works in English, but it was The Prophet (1923), and little else, which captured the imagination of Western readers—and the ire of many detractors. Based on the 26 counsels of Almustafa, who dispenses his wisdom on love, marriage, and children to the grateful people of a fictitious land as he prepares to return to the island of his birth, The Prophet is vague, sentimental, and platitudinous to its critics. But while I share a certain sympathy with such views, it is also a sublime tonic. It is, indeed, vague and sentimental in ways; but its persistent sales would suggest it stirs something within the soul of the common reader.

Brazil's Straw Hat project helps women leave abusive situations
Saudi, Iran and the 'war' over the Hajj stampede
25 Apr 2006 03:51 GMT
The blasts on Monday evening took place on a crowded street in an area popular with foreign tourists.
Ahmad Samir, a witness in Dahab, told Aljazeera: "Foreigners were scared and panicking. They were asking us where to go and how to escape."
The blasts are the latest in a series of attacks on tourists and resorts in Egypt.
In July last year, an attack on the Red Sea resort of Sharm al-Sheikh involving two car bombs and a suitcase bomb killed 67 people.
The governor of South Sinai, Muhammad Hani, told Reuters on Monday that the three blasts were the work of suicide bombers and not as powerful as two previous sets of three simultaneous bombings at resorts in the Sinai peninsula over the past two years.
But security sources in his province said initial investigations suggested planted explosive devices.
An interior ministry statement said there were 23 dead, including a German boy and two unidentified foreigners.
Rescuers carry an injured personafter the deadly blasts in DahabThe 62 wounded included 20 foreigners, among them three Danes, three Britons, two Italians, two Germans, two French people, a South Korean, a Lebanese, a Palestinian, an American, an Israeli and an Australian, it added.
Rescuers carry an injured personafter the deadly blasts in Dahab
Dahab is also popular with Israeli holidaymakers, but officials in neighbouring Israel said they were unaware of any Israeli casualties.
Rescue officials said earlier they had counted 30 dead, and other officials had said up to 150 were injured.
"The explosions were a bit weaker than the previous ones but now they are using suicide attacks," said Hani.
The bombs wrecked several restaurants along the main tourist street in the small resort. Windows and furniture were smashed and pools of blood lay on the floor. People had abandoned the restaurant in mid-meal and fled from the scene.
Shops destroyed
In the bazaar, which sells souvenirs, handicrafts and jewellery, one of the blasts destroyed at least eight shops.
Residents said they saw body parts and debris outside a restaurant and that when the bombs went off at about 7.15pm (1715 GMT) smoke billowed up from the market in Dahab, a beach and diving centre popular with foreign backpackers.
The wrecked fish stall of one ofthe restaurants hit by the blasts"We saw many dead people. People were screaming. People were being taken to hospital. There are police everywhere," said a cafe worker near the scene of one explosion, who like many other witnesses requested anonymity.
The wrecked fish stall of one ofthe restaurants hit by the blasts
One Dahab resident said: "There were body parts and debris in the street ... There are ambulances and cars taking people to hospital."
The blasts, on the ancient Egyptian spring festival of Shamm al-Nassim, hit the Nelson Restaurant, the Aladdin cafe and the Ghazala supermarket, the interior ministry said.
It was the third set of explosions on the eastern coast of the Sinai peninsula since October 2004, when a group attacked the Hilton hotel in the resort of Taba and two other resorts on the northeast coast, killing 34 people.
Past attacks
Egyptian authorities said a closely related group attacked again in the upmarket resort of Sharm al-Sheikh last year. Those attacks were also on Egyptian national holidays - October 6 and July 23.
Residents say that judging from the evidence they saw in the streets, the explosions were smaller than those in Sharm al-Sheikh and Taba and were not the result of car bombs.
Egyptian authorities attributed the Taba and Sharm al-Sheikh attacks to a small Sinai-based group originally led by a man of Palestinian origin and with radical Islamist views.

Travolta's new movie taps 'cougar' trend
Published: Thursday, September 3, 2009 at 6:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, August 31, 2009 at 2:11 p.m.
News and notes about Marion Countys favorite celebrity, John Travolta.
Cougar culture crosses into Travolta territory when the Disney comedy Old Dogs opens in November.
In the film, Travolta is a player with the ladies whose best friend, played by Robin Williams, finds out he has children with an old girlfriend. That girlfriend, by the way, is played by Travoltas wife, Kelly Preston, and one of the kids is played by their daughter, Elle Bleu Travolta.
Anyway, in an interview with The Associated Press, Williams said Travoltas character starts using the kids as bait for women, as cougar bait. Hes like, Chicks dig kids, and hes using them to kind of gather around older, sexier women.
The term cougar is used to describe women in their mid-30s and older who pursue the company of younger, more energetic men. The term has taken on a new momentum these days. Cougars are prevalent characters in movies (see Mary Steenburgen in Four Christmases), and two cougar-centered TV shows are in production.
Old Dogs is scheduled to open Nov. 25.

No wonder this was JFK's honeymoon spot. In addition to the 27 rooms in the main house, most of the 14 vine-covered cottages have decks and hot tubs. Eat at the Stonehouse Restaurant, where chef John Trotta serves refined dishes like mascarpone and scallion risotto.

TripAdvisor Reviews Hostal Perez Muros
Travel Blogs from Muros
3 Weeks on the beach..fun n sun ..lots of Hot sun
... July 13 Monday blog out , till we leave for Andalusia meanwhile , while still in Altea : Moved to another apt down the street on july17 , still in old town . Liking this area. Convenient to shops, train, cafes and beach. July23 Thursday checked out the nude beach to complete our Spain Tan ! july 25 Saturday Catching the last of Le tour du France at beach side cafes Left Altea on July 27 at 11:30 am ; onwards to Andalusia ...
Unexpected surprise
... long passage and sailed nearly the whole way. There was quite a strong wind in the right direction to push us along nicely.
We ended up anchoring not far from Muros. There was a fairly strong wind around the mountains and a little bit of swell but it wasn't too uncomfortable.
The next day (Sunday) we took the dinghy and ventured to the village. What a great place, so atmospheric ...
The end of the world
... enough to swim in for the first time this year (I do mean only just though, it was quite a shock when I jumped in!) and we spent the afternoon sunbathing and feeling obnoxiously self-congratulatory.
We got into a marina today so we've bought ourselves some fairly cheap champagne so we can celebrate with 2-Blue - now it's time to enjoy our time in these Galician rias - supposedly one of the most beautiful cruising grounds in the world.
To Altea
... Park, very well kept, and very scenic.
Afterwards, we have what is, for Kathleen, an adventurous lunch, Tapas, consisting of Patas Bravas, Garlic and Cheese Potatoes, Tortilla, Meatballs in piquant sauce, with a bottle of Rioja of course.
Saturday 22nd March 2014
Weather forecast completely wrong, forecast, sunny ...
Very civilised "Stag" Parties
... there are lots of chicks still being fed by their mothers, even although the chick is big enough to fly.
The chick follows the mother around, making cheeping noises and sort of fluttering it's wings in a pathetic way, until, the mother relents and feeds it.

Ralph S. Paffenbarger, 84, epidemiologist
PALO ALTO, Calif. (AP) — Dr. Ralph S. Paffenbarger Jr., a medical professor and researcher whose study of the connection between exercise and longevity influenced the modern physical fitness movement, died July 9 at his home in Santa Fe, N.M., after a long battle with congestive heart disease. He was 84.
Dr. Paffenbarger, an epidemiologist, spent several decades studying the exercise levels, illnesses and deaths of more than 50,000 people who had graduated from Harvard University or the University of Pennsylvania between 1916 and 1950.
In 1986, he published an influential study based on his data. His work showed that men who burned at least 2,000 calories a week had death rates one-quarter to one-third lower than those who did not exercise regularly.
His study also showed that the amount of additional life for people who got adequate exercise compared with those who were sedentary was one to two years.
Dr. Paffenbarger was a professor of public health at Harvard in the 1960s and taught public health at the University of California at Berkeley from 1969 to 1980.
He joined the Stanford University School of Medicine in 1977 as a professor of health research and policy, and he retired in 1993.
Jim Mitchell, 63, adult-film producer
PETALUMA, Calif. (AP) — Jim Mitchell, a pioneering pornographer who was convicted of killing the brother with whom he built the Mitchell Brothers adult-film empire, died July 12 at the ranch near Petaluma where he had lived quietly since his release from San Quentin State Prison in 1997. He was 63.
Mr. Mitchell and his late younger brother, Artie, produced "Behind the Green Door" and other adult films during the 1970s.
The cause of death was not immediately known, but foul play was not suspected, Sonoma County Sheriff's Sgt. Mitch Mana said. Merle Lane, a relative of Mr. Mitchell's wife, Lisa, said it appeared Mr. Mitchell had a heart attack.
In 1969, the Mitchells opened a still-running adult movie theater in San Francisco. The pair, who faced multiple arrests on obscenity charges, ultimately produced hundreds of films.
Their glory days came to an abrupt end in 1991, when Mr. Mitchell shot his brother. Jim Mitchell was carrying a rifle and a revolver when police arrested him at his brother's Marin County home. He was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in 1992 and spent five years at San Quentin before being paroled in 1997.
Robert F. Simone, 73, defense lawyer
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Robert F. Simone, a defense lawyer for 40 years whose clients ranged from the glamorous to the infamous, died July 10 at Hahnemann University Hospital of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. He was 73.

Reality Show The Quest Is in Search of Dallas' Tolkien Nerd
Thought all subcultures were already tapped for reality television? Guess again. A new program is gaining momentum and intends to fill its cast with our favorite obsessives, The Nerds of Earth.
The Quest has been described by its creator as "Amazing Race in Middle-Earth" and takes its potential crew on a mission to "follow their dreams."
Those selected should be somewhat obsessive, though the focus of their gaze can range the rough terrain of geekly pursuits, from Dungeons and Dragons, LARPing and Tolkien to Game of Thrones and other genre fascinations.
In order to piggyback off Comic Con's momentum, there will be a Dallas casting call this Friday from 8 to 10 p.m. at Barcadia, which should be hilarious, given the collegey, booty-bump crowd that fills in the venue on weekend nights.
Quest's casting management says that a good candidate will present themselves as a competitive spirit, you know -- someone fully committed to winning. Whether that means slaying a few orcs to be deemed a hero or resorting to sneaky tactics -- they want to see a drive. So don't be afraid to let out your inner Gollum.
Currently The Quest isn't linked with a specific network affiliate, but Profiles Television is behind its early stage development. They've got a Lord of the Rings executive producer on board and the creative minds of Amazing Race, so if it all shakes out, you'll see a larger-than-life celebration of sci-fi and fantasy arrive on your dial soon.

Not so fast.
USA Today 's Bob Nightengale says that Tim Wallach "is looming as favorite."
Wallach is currently the Triple-A manager for the Albuquerque Isotopes, his second season at the helm. He was named the Pacific Coast League Manager of the Year last season, when the Isotopes went 80-64, finishing in first place 11 games up.
It's unclear why Wallach is considered the favorite, although the knock against Mattingly is he has yet to manage a minor- or major-league team. The former Yankee great will skipper an Arizona Fall League team in the fall, but that's only a brief assignment. In Mattingly's favor is the fact the Dodgers requested he accept the assignment, presumably to get a look at his managerial skills. Not in his favor is the fact he made a crucial error as acting manager in July, causing the Dodgers to drop a game to the Giants.
Wallach, meanwhile, has plenty of managerial experience. The 52-year-old also served as the team's hitting coach from 2004-05 under Jim Tracy, and has additional managerial experience at the lower rungs of the minors with the Dodgers, Angels and also served as manager at alma mater Cal State Fullerton.
Wallach was one of the more well-known players during the 1980s, grabbing five All-Star honors in a 17-year career ending in 1996. He spent 13 seasons with the Montreal Expos, but was a Dodger by the time the Expos had a dominant season in the strike-shortened 1994 season. He accumulated 2,085 total hits and 260 home runs.
Torre may return to the Dodgers, but many expect him to leave. He is a free agent and may be out of the Dodgers' price range, and may not want to return even if the price is right. The team has cut spending drastically as the team is a hot commodity in the divorce proceedings of Frank McCourt and wife Jamie.

< p>In case you are looking through this specific article, you're possibly among the hundreds of thousands of smokers in the planet at present that is more likely to be attempting to stop. You have tried all kinds of various stuff, nevertheless not anything really seems to work. Dread not, though, because there is all the time one thing new to try within the fight versus nicotine. Like for instance, have you ever tried quit smoking patches?
Despite the fact that it may seem pretty simplistic those effective small addition to your look might bring about a serious distinction on the subject of the manner you deal with making an attempt to stop. That is not to recommend that such are the only manner that you just may perhaps successfully quit the dependency, though. As a matter of fact there are several} techniques that people have learned to encourage them to lay off cigarettes .
Hence while this text may possibly concentrate first and foremost with regards to getting you more informed with reference to the patches, it is going to also provide you with some different alternatives just in case those aren't the solution for you. The first plot of action can be to identify precisely what one of such patches is, so that you're better able to learn how they can help anyone who's making an attempt to quit.
Mainly this is literally like an adhesive bandage you attach somewhere on your skin, though normally the upper arm. This gives you a controlled amount of nicotine as it is in place, that could also aid you control desires and remove the physical need to quit smoking. Typically, those are step down patches. Their purpose is to offer you a smaller amount nicotine and in the end you will not need any at all.
These are easily existing at nearly all all pharmacies that are out there, thus you must not have loads of hassle locating them. Then, you can start using them virtually immediately, assuming that you have to start giving up immediately. A lot of consultants recommend to establish a certain and really special date to give up smoking , instead of doing flimsy like. You have to keep your resolve and stick to your guns to quit at last.
But as was previously mentioned, that might not at all times be by means of using such quit smoking patches. You could attempt the gums, for the reason that they offer you a dose of nicotine once you need it. It is obtainable in a range pack of flavors also, hence the step down process is not going to get stale on you. If you get bored with one flavor in the gum, you just go on to a different one.
Dietary supplements and cold turkey are the final 2 choices that you simply may have. There are supplements that are believed to help you, though there isn't any reliable research to suggest if they are efficient or not. Now, whether those work or they do not, you all the time have your ultimate strategy to place in force: and that's just stopping cold turkey. Occasionally, that is the only help intended for some persons.
Such are the best choices for helping you quit smoking ultimately, despite the fact that one of several excellent alternatives at the moment could be througby way of quit smoking patches. Those are simple apply, and will help extraordinarily.
At Smoking Patch, you'll find products, information, and resources on using the patch to quit smoking , smoking with a patch on , and stop smoking patch coupons .

The Lunar Cycles Connection to Halloween & Our Periods.
One of the things I love about getting my period is that I feel more connected to my emotions.
I tend to stay away from inversions during the first few days of it, and I always spend more time meditating. I am at my most sensitive on and around my period and I own it. I own that I cry more easily, that I laugh more from the gut, and I also feel it's the best time to connect my own energy to the moon's cycle.
Every new and full moon I take time to honor where I am in my cycle and I also have a ceremony, even if only for a few moments, because I feel as women we get a great deal of healing, and strengthen the connection to our ancestors, when we honor the moon and work towards becoming in sync with it.
According to the ancient yogis, women are supposed to bleed on or around the new moon cycle rather than the full moon. It's said that those bleeding on or around the full moon are less connected to their natural rhythm and more distant from their bodies. The connection to the ebb and flow of the ocean is less than those that bleed during the new moon's cycle.
Our natural connection to lunar energy, and becoming more aware of our connection to it, provides us each month with an opportunity to become more intimate with our bodies, our breath, and the moons healing energy.
Cultivating moon awareness brings us into greater alignment with the Divine Feminine, Grandmother Moon, herself.
The new moon is connected to setting intentions, goals, and are in honor of beginnings, and the darkness that is needed for growth to occur, much like how a seed germinates in dark soil before rising to meet the sun's rays.
Full moons are said to be connected to the shedding of the old, that which no longer serves us, so that new energy is welcome into our lives. Sometimes the full moon is called, The Ship of Fools. A mother ship traversing the sky taking away the fool inside.
When I was younger, my mom would tell us girls to sit under the full moon with her to cleanse our third eye. She'd sit under a full moon before taking exams for college because she said in doing so she achieved clearer thinking and better memory. She also said it offered clearer hearing of her heart's stirrings and that she could listen to her gut with more clarity and compassion upon sitting under Grandmother Moon (I have a cool Mom).
We were told to cut our hair on full moons if we wanted it to grow back thicker and longer and that shedding a few inches on a full moon would induce faster and healthier hair growth.
Some may look at all of this as being nothing more than Hocus Pocus, and tis the season. With Halloween near, with the idea of witches riding brooms being possible in the minds of children everywhere, with blood and gore at its height, with front yards made into graveyards.
Horror films are at their peak season, and why not invoke the moons energy when there are so many images of the full moon, with owls nearby?
Around this time of year we grow more like our ancestors, connect more deeply to the cycles of the moon.
Watch Jaws, the new Carrie that's coming out, The Exorcist, or dress up in whatever ways that makes you feel more connected to your most natural self, maybe the self you might be fearful of showing on other days of the year.
Halloween and the moon are undeniably connected. Remember we dress up so that we aren't mistaken for the living, when zombies come out of their savasana to feed on the night when the dead come alive. We don't usual associate Halloween with our periods, unless we're watching Carrie.
And with the moon connected so closely to Halloween, to feminine energy, our cycles, our blood, it's a perfect time to connect with the moon.
