Ooh, this is a good idea for a list, I think I'll clone it at some point.
All of these are fantastic, of course. I think the "Happy Dude" autodialler thing would have to be my number one.. just brilliant!
One of my favourites you haven't got here is the Mr. Sparkle thing from "In Marge We Trust".

I feel like season 7 might have been the best season for B-stories. One of my favorites is from Bart on the Road; the sequences with Lisa and Homer bonding are better than the main story, IMHO. I also love the Moe B-story in Bart Sells His Soul and the kids' B-story in Team Homer.
My favorite B-story, however, might be the lawsuit one from New Kid on the Block. Hilarious.
Other greats: the Maggie B-story in A Streetcar Named Marge and the two Homer weight-loss B-stories in Brush With Greatness and Bart's Friend Falls in Love.

Ahh yes - strike the above, the wonderful Maggie sub-plot in "A Streetcar Named Marge" might just be my number one after all. :-)

Also, we're getting beyond the classic era here, but of all the overused "Homer gets a job" plotlines, I think one of the funniest is the B-story of Bye Bye Nerdie when he gets a job as a babyproofer. The scene with the woman struggling to open the bottle, Homer's assertion that the baby could order poison by phone - comedy gold.

Located about 20 miles from Jerusalem, Beit Shemesh is a suburban community popular among those who need to commute to the capital or to Tel Aviv. Within 5 to 10 miles of the town are many exciting cave-centered attractions, both natural and man-made, since the ground here is made of soft limestone, chalk and other easily dug materials. Many of the caves and tunnels have historical significance, as they were used as hideouts or storerooms in ancient times.
Soreq Cave
The Soreq (or Sorek) Cave, also known as the Stalactite Cave (parks.org.il), is a spectacular wonderland of stalactites and stalagmites in a rich variety of forms; some are over 300 thousand years old. Tour guides have given the stalactites and stalagmites imaginative names based on the images they evoke, such as "sombrero," "macaroni" and "Moses." During the 30- to 45-minute tour, keep your eyes open for rocks shaped like grape clusters, tree branches and corals. Entrance to the cave requires a fee and a descent down 150 stairs (and ascent up them again on the way home), but once you are in the caves the walk is easy. Tours are available in English upon request; they usually start before 10 am. The best time to visit is during the winter, when drops of water glisten beautifully throughout the caves.
Bat Cave (aka Twins Cave)
True to its name, the Bat Cave (No website; contact Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel at teva.org.il) is home to four species of bats and is open only from April to October, so that in the winter the bats can hibernate unhindered by tourists. Getting there requires a moderately difficult but beautiful half-hour hike from the nearest parking lot, but once there you will understand why the cave is central to many local legends, such as one that claims a barren woman drank from its springs and gave birth to twins. The first level of the cave, entered after a descent down some steps, is a spacious hall full of stalactites and stalagmites. Another staircase takes you to the pool of spring water.
Bar Kochba Caves
The Bar Kochba caves (no website; contact National Parks Authority at parks.org.il) are one of the more popular attractions in Israel for youth groups, because the smaller you are the more you'll enjoy them. These are the caves in which Simon Bar Kochba and his followers hid during the rebellion he led against the occupying Romans from 132 to 136 C.E. To access the caves you must crawl, sometimes on your stomach, through narrow tunnels. Each person must have his own flashlight; also bring candles and matches if you like, to light once you reach the caves. The tunnels eventually open to a pleasant picnic area, but they are inappropriate for the physically challenged or claustrophobic.
Beit Guvrin National Park
The ground at the 1250-acre Beit Guvrin National Park (parks.org.il) is made of a thick layer of chalk overlaid with nari stone. Since the Biblical era when humans first settled here, people have been digging small holes through the nari and then large caves in the chalk, creating a complex underground network of passageways, storerooms, hideouts, dovecotes and burial caves that you are welcome to explore; the park sometimes hold events in some of the larger caverns. The caves could take as little as an hour to explore, or allow up to five hours to enjoy other attractions at the park, including the ruins of a Roman amphitheater.
Bell Caves at Luzit
Near what is now Moshav Luzit, peoples of the third to tenth centuries dug out dome-shaped quarries, with small holes at ground level and large caverns underneath. Hence, the caves here are known as "bell caves" (no website; contact Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel at teva.org.il). They are popular among rappellers, who come in groups to rappel down from surface level; if you do venture to the ground level, be extremely cautious and obey signs and fences, lest you fall into a pit. The caves are open at all times. Flashlights are imperative.

Evidence Mounting for Role of Fetal Damage in Schizophrenia
By DANIEL GOLEMAN
Published: May 28, 1996
A DRAMATIC change is afoot in the scientific understanding of schizophrenia, a devastating mental illness with 2.5 million victims in the United States alone. The first symptoms usually appear when people are in their late 20's, but neuroscientists now believe that the seeds of the disorder are often sown during fetal development.
That is when the brain is wired up; nerve cells grow and divide, building connections with each other. The basic flaw in the brains of many schizophrenics seems to be that certain nerve cells migrate to the wrong areas when the brain is first taking shape, leaving small regions of the brain permanently out of place or miswired. Such errors in neural architecture may have one or more causes, which remain to be discovered. One speculation is that brain misconnections might develop when the mother catches a virus early in pregnancy.
The chief symptoms of schizophrenia include apathy, a blunting of emotions, delusions and the hearing of internal voices. Once these symptoms begin, they typically wax and wane for the rest of a person's life.
The origins of the disorder have long been mysterious. Once attributed to poor communication within families, the condition is now recognized as a disease of the brain, as seen in differences between schizophrenic and normal brains.
The idea that these differences arise during fetal development, said Dr. David Shore, chief of the Schizophrenia Research Branch at the National Institute of Mental Health in Bethesda, Md., "is one of the leading candidates for explaining how the changes we see in the brains of schizophrenics might have come about."
But that theory does not solve the entire puzzle. "Schizophrenia is probably many different kinds of problems that converge on the same syndrome, not just a single disease," said Dr. Daniel Weinberger, chief of the clinical Brain Disorders Branch of the National Institute of Mental Health. "But based on the weight of evidence, half or more of schizophrenia seems to be due to abnormalities in fetal brain development."
Evidence for that new theory comes from several different sources, including autopsies of patients' brains, family movies taken when patients were as young as 2 years old and epidemiological data.
One of the more convincing reports, based on tissue from autopsies and published this month in The Archives of General Psychiatry, showed neurons out of place in the prefrontal areas of 7 of 20 brains from patients with schizophrenia and in none of the 20 brains from people without the disorder. The study is the fourth of its kind to report wayward cells in various parts of the cortex in people with schizophrenia.
The out-of-place cells are unexpectedly large residues of the neural subplate, a structure that guides other neurons to their proper sites. The subplate forms about the fourth month of pregnancy. It gradually disappears almost entirely within the first month of life, having performed its task of aiming neurons toward their location in the cortex.
"The migration of brain cells through the neural subplate occurs almost entirely in the second trimester of fetal development," said Dr. Steven G. Potkin, a psychiatrist at the University of California at Irvine and a co-author of the study, with Dr. William E. Bunney and Dr. Edward Jones.
"If you disrupt this migration, cells end up in the wrong place or have faulty connections -- and that's what we found in the brains of the schizophrenic patients," Dr. Potkin said. "The maldistribution of these cells suggests an abnormality in the subplate."
Experiments on cats by Dr. Carla Shatz, a neuroscientist at the University of California at Berkeley, has shown that making cuts in the subplate at an equivalent period in the development of the cat brain produces cortical cells that are miswired or out of place.
Just what might cause the neural subplate to fail to perform its duties is a matter of surmise. Dr. Potkin speculated that "there may be a wide range of causes, from a faulty genetic mechanism to environmental insults, like the mother having a virus that penetrates the placenta, all of which interfere with the operation of the neural subplate during the critical months of fetal brain development."
One nagging question for proponents of the new theory is why no symptoms of schizophrenia appear for two decades or more if the brain abnormalities are present from birth.
One answer is that there are, indeed, signs of coming trouble throughout life but that they are subtle and easily missed. The British Medical Research Council tracked every child born in Britain in the first week of March 1946, assessing them every two years or so until they reached the age of 43. Dr. Robin Murray, a British psychiatrist, found subtle childhood differences among those who later developed schizophrenia.
At most milestones of neurological development -- analyzed by looking at things like when each infant first sat up and teacher ratings of each child's performance -- the development of the schizophrenic group, on average, was delayed.

- April 6, 1908
- Bats:

- Right
- Height:
- 6' 3"
- Weight:

"He was the best righthanded hitter I ever saw. And he was an exceptional player in every way except running. If he hadn't been so slow, he would have had an even better batting average." - Harry Craft
"You almost come to the conclusion that he was the greatest hitter of all time. Every hit he made . . . was an honest one." - sportswriter Arthur Daley
Lombardi broke into baseball with Oakland of the Pacific Coast League at age eighteen. After being sent out to Ogden for seasoning, he had three outstanding seasons, catching 120, 164, and 146 games and hitting .377, .366, and .370. The Dodgers bought his contract in 1931, but though he hit a strong .297, they traded him to Cincinnati in a six-player deal in March 1932.
Lombardi won two batting titles, the first catcher to do so. In 1938 he was named National League Most Valuable Player, in 1939 he helped the Cincinnati Reds to the World Series. The 1939 series saw an incident that haunted his career. In the 10th inning of the fourth and final game, Yankee Charlie Keller crashed into him in a close play at the plate. Lombardi was stunned and another Yankee run scored while he lay on the ground. Newspapers unfairly called it "Lombardi's Swoon."
He made up for it, in 1940 he led the Reds to the World Championship. He was later sold to the Braves in 1942, he won his second batting title (.330) and then spent his final five ML seasons with the Giants.
A cartoon-lie figure, Lombardi was considered the slowest player in the game, had a notoriously large nose, and hands so large he could hold five baseballs in one palm. A fair defensive player, he made his name with his bat, fashioning a .306 lifetime average with 190 home runs, a total exceeded by only two other right-handed hitting catchers when he retired. Like Enos Slaughter, Lombardi was an outspoken critic of the Hall of Fame, as the years passed and he was not elected. In 1986, eight years after Lombardi had died, the Veterans Committee elected him to Cooperstown.

Although hotels near attractions might cost a little more, you may find that spending those extra few dollars is worth the convenience. You can even find hotels that align with your interests. For example, if you are looking for a relaxing vacation, a spa hotel may be the perfect choice for you.
You'll also want to determine which type of accommodations will suit your needs before booking a hotel in Sun Peaks. If you're traveling with the kiddos, a family friendly hotel will offer larger rooms and more sleeping arrangements. For those traveling for an extended period of time, booking a hotel suite with a kitchenette is a smart move and will feel a little more like home. If you are budget conscience and just need a place to rest your head, a hostel or motel may be all you need.
If you are looking to score the best discounts and deals, use the filter to sort by price from low to high. You can book a hotel in Sun Peaks for as low as $87 per night.

MATHIS, Texas (AP) — The bodies of a South Texas couple who went missing in a South Texas lake over the weekend have been recovered.
A San Patricio County justice of the peace identified the two as 30-year-old Ronnie Jean Renfro of Corpus Christi and 31-year-old Marshall Shambo of Mathis. Sheriff Leroy Moody says their bodies were found floating in the waters of Lake Corpus Christi on Monday afternoon, one day after they went missing while boating with Shambo's two children.
Moody says the couple jumped into the water to rescue Shambo's 5-year-old daughter, who had fallen into the water. A game warden said the daughter and her 7-year-old brother wore life jackets, but not the adults. Another boater came upon the girl and rescued her but saw no sign of the couple.

Police arrest second of four credit card theft suspects
Police have made a second arrest in a case of four persons wanted for fraudulent use of a credit card.
Colvin Gaspar, 22, of Kailua-Kona was arrested in Kailua-Kona at 5:15 p.m. Wednesday and charged with four counts of violating probation and four counts of contempt of court, with bail set at $300,000. He was also arrested on suspicion of theft and fraudulent use of a credit card. He is being held at the Kona police cellblock pending further investigation of those offenses.
Theodore "Kahui" Casuga, 39, of Kailua-Kona, who was arrested Tuesday morning in Kailua-Kona, was charged at 10:10 a.m. Thursday with first-degree terroristic threatening, resisting an order to stop, reckless driving, driving without a license, promoting a dangerous drug, possessing drug paraphernalia and two counts of violating probation. His bail was set at $33,000. The terroristic threatening and driving charges are for an incident Friday (July 25), when Casuga drove his vehicle toward an officer on foot who was attempting to arrest him, refused to stop and drove away recklessly. The officer had to move quickly to avoid being hit.
Police continue to investigate additional offenses against Casuga for theft and credit card fraud.
Two other persons are still wanted in connection with this investigation.
Luke Kaniaupia 21, of Kailua-Kona is described as 5-foot-6, 165 pounds with black hair and brown eyes.
Leilani Parent, 26, of Kailua-Kona is described as 5-foot-5, 140 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of either of these individuals is asked to call the police non-emergency line at 935-3311. Those who prefer anonymity may call Crime Stoppers number at 961-8300.

All North Little Rock football coach Brad Bolding preaches is "get better this week than you were last week".
Ever since a gut-punch loss to the Cabot Panthers nearly a month ago, that mantra seems to not only have returned with the rhetoric of the coaches, but the players have reintegrated the philosophy as well.
The Charging Wildcats are racking up points on offense and zeros on defense. Searcy was the latest victim for North Little Rock in a 52-0 drubbing on Friday.
Bolding's analysis of the win, however, was Holtz-like.
"We put the ball on the ground a little bit too much," Bolding said. "Our second team guys were a little sloppy, but all in all we played a good game."
K.J. Hill atoned for an early fumble with an onside with a 22-yard punt return and an onside kick. He managed to catch touchdown pass or two as well.
With as many as seven season ending knee injuries on his team, Bolding has had to test his depth. So far the depth has come through.
Deion Tidwell, who has been the blue-collar guy the last three years, is reaping carries, yards and touchdowns.
"He has developed a lot of toughness," Bolding said. "He may not run by a lot of people, but he will run through them."
Tidwell took over the tailback position after Juan Day's season ended with a knee injury against Pine Bluff.
But where the Charging Wildcats are excelling in the last three games, is on defense. North Little Rock has outscored their opponents 124-6 in the last three weeks shutting out West Memphis as well as Searcy, holding the Lions to less than 100 yards of total offense on Friday.
Marion is up next on the schedule, and while Bolding is pleased with the team's resurgence, he is yet cautious.
"They've got some athletes on that team," Bolding said. "We don't take anyone on our schedule lightly."

Unlike a credit card, the balance on a charge card is paid in full each month... so you don't have to worry about interest rate hikes and other non-sense. Many like the fact that since the entire balance will be due, it helps them resist the temptation of overspending. However even the most fiscally responsible prefer them too, since charge cards offer unique benefits you can't always get with a credit card. But whatever your motive, the AmEx Green Card is a bad choice when you compare it to the Gold or the Premier Rewards Gold Card. This holds true even if it's your first AmEx, because I hear from ton's of first timers who get approved for the Gold, too.
In the US, American Express is the only major issuer which currently offers charge cards. Their first card was launched in 1958, and this was eventually named the American Express Green Card. In '66 they issued the Gold Card and in '84 the Platinum Card. Let's take a look at what the Green does and doesn't offer...
Annual Fee: $95.00, note that this is usually NOT waived for the first year.
Rewards: The card participates in the Membership Rewards program, which is exclusive to AmEx charge cards:
- 1x points on regular spending
- 2x on travel booked through the AmEx travel website
Sure, some other credit cards allow you to do this with one or two airlines, but only American Express has over 20 airlines and hotels in their program (by far the biggest selection). But the most impressive part is that you almost always get 1 mile per point when you convert. You get this with all AmEx charge cards, not just the Green Card.
BenefitsImportant Note: Many other cards on the the market today advertise "miles" but all they are really giving you is cash back to spend on travel, because each mile only equals $0.01 worth of travel. However with AmEx you are actually converting your points to real miles on airline frequent flyer programs such as Delta, JetBlue, British Airways, Frontier, Virgin Atlantic, AirTran and others. Obviously this is a much better deal, since the dollar value you get through those frequent flyer programs can sometimes be as high as two or three cents per mile (for example instead of paying $500 cash for a roundtrip ticket, you may be able to get it for just 25,000 miles through the airline's mile program. That's $0.02 per mile which is double the value).
This card does offer some great benefits. So it's not that the benefits are lacking, rather it's just that some of AmEx's other charge cards give you way more for your money (which we will discuss in a moment). First, let's take a look at some of the American Express Green Card benefits:
Extended Warranty Benefit: This is an extremely useful benefit which can also save you some money from having to buy extended warranties out-of-pocket. Instead, any eligible purchase made with the AmEx Green Card that has an original U.S. manufacturers warranty will be doubled by up to one extra year (during that second year AmEx will cover your losses directly). So let's say you bought a new monitor that had a 1 year warranty, but it went bad after 1.5 years. Since American Express automatically extends that warranty 1 year, you would simply call them up to take care of it for free.
Travel Benefits:There are a couple convenient travel benefits included. The first one is their emergency assistance hotline; wherever you are in the world, they can arrange for legal, medical, or financial help when away from home. The second benefit is travel accident insurance, which covers the cardmember if accidental death or dismemberment happens while traveling on a plane, ship, train, or bus (the ticket will need to have been purchased with the card to qualify).
Simply put, when you do an apples to apples comparison of the AmEx Green vs. Gold, the Green just doesn't make sense...
Reason #1: The $95 annual fee is not much less than the $125 basic Gold Card, but the latter will give you significantly better benefits.
Reason #2: When you apply for an AmEx Green Card you typically do not get any bonus points.
Reason #3: If the reason you were interested in the Green is because you have a limited credit history and want an AmEx with entry-level credit requirements, you will be happy to learn that according to reviews from customers, both the Green and basic Gold sound to be comparable in their approval.[/indent]So the choice is up to you... pay $95 for the Green and get no promotional bonus, fewer benefits, and lower rewards -OR- go with one of the Gold versions which will give you a lot more bang for your buck:

This is a great multipurpose masque however not reccomended for those with sensetive skin. This masque has many uses but none greater than to boost product absorbtion.
Once a week before bed time i'll mix a pea size ammount of my exfoliant (Avon Clinical) into my cream cleanser (Avon Reversalist) and massage over my face for about two minutes. Then after washing it off, ill apply this peel-off masque. After all the dead skin cells are gone, my face is ready for maximum product absorbtion. Occasionally i'll whip out my derma-roller (0.5mm)... I am a very DIY beauty junky.
If you want a lighter spa-like experience from this masque, I would reccomend mixing a little bit of lotion into this product before applying.

I believe this product has been discontinued because I don't see it anymore along with other Freeman products. Back in HS I loved the Totally Juicy line. This particular mask was no exception. The feeling was fun, left my face smooth and glowing, and does not hurt--at all.

My eyes are watering just THINKING about this mask! I bought this a few years back and pull it out to use every once in a while as the memory of the pain is fading (haha...). I guess it works, as the idea of it is a good one-- in theory it will physically latch onto and pull out any gunk that is lurking in your pores. In practice, however, it latches onto anything on your face: baby hair, eyebrows, SKIN; and yanks on that, too, as you are removing it. I don't have sensitive skin, but this was just too high of an ouch-factor for marginal results.
The pain isn't too bad on cheeks and forehead, so maybe it would work best as a spot-treatment of sorts, since those are where the problem pores are usually located.

I don't have sensitive skin, but I have to admit I teared up too when I pulled this off! I am not complaining though, because this made my face smooth and soft and in addition to clarifying my skin, it pulled alot of the fine hair on my cheeks and chin. Like another person said, I too expected it to hurt a little because that's the only way it can pull out all the debris from my pores. It all came off in just a few large sections. A small bit got in my hair and that came out with a splash of warm water. I would recommend this to anyone, it doesn't burn and you do have the option to rinse it off with warm water (although I would guess you don't get the full benefit of the peel).

Y'all are whimps! Those of you who say it's painful need to suck it up! This is not painful it is doing it's job. Pulling out/off impurities that are on the skin. I didn't even feel discomfort. In fact it felt amazing and my skin was baby soft afterwards... Refreshingly great product/great price and great results. What more do you want?

I don't mind lip plumpers, the burn is kind of refreshing. I don't even particularly mind getting shots, taking off bandaids or plucking eyebrow hairs.
This, on the other hand, was AWFUL!
Particularly about the cheeks, this was extremely difficult and painful to remove. I think I was actually whimpering.
Never again. Into the trash!

I can actually say, this mask was PAINFUL. Bits and peices would stick to my face and it hurt like pulling off a bandaid what I could peel off. Plus, the product leaked all over my vanity so that was what did it for me...into the trash it went.

This is not a bad product. I had been swearing by Queen Helene's Grapeseed Peel-Off mask, but now that I have tried it, I like Totally Juicy's Grapefruit mask better. It smells like slightly sweet grapefruit, and I like that. It goes on very thin, and so is easy to spread. It didn't hurt at all when I peeled it off (for the record, I think removing a pore strip stings a little, but not unbearably--this definitely wasn't as harsh as removing a pore strip), but it did take more force to peel it than most other peel-off masks I have used. I wouldn't mind it stinging a bit because really, how else is it supposed to get anything out of my pores if it doesn't latch on first? My face feels clean when I'm done, although this didn't get out blackheads for me. Since this is so thin before applying, it does have a tendency to drip out of the tube when its open. I've been storing my tube upside down just in case--if this leaked it would be an unholy mess. continued >>

Marvel Assembles an Official Title for Third "Avengers" Movie
Comic Books, Film
In an era where the creator's rights conversation is as loud as its ever been in comics, this week saw some surprising news quietly slip out onto the web: Black Lightning creator Tony Isabella and DC Comics have taken the first steps towards reconciling a very contentious relationship.
The writer has long contended he's the sole creator of DC's first black superhero to star in a solo series as the character wasn't introduced under a work-for-hire agreement but rather a partnership between he and DC. It was only after Isabella sought to buy out the publisher's interest in the character following the cancellation of that first series in 1978 that he says DC declared artist Trevor Von Eeden as Black Lightning's co-creator.
While Isabella did some later work with the publisher — most notably the first nine issues of a 13-issue Black Lightning revival in 1995 — he's spent the majority of the past two decades being very vocal about his discontent with the publisher and their treatment of him. Most recently, the writer spoke out against DC's choice to revive and redesign the hero as part of the New 52 initiative.
A potential legal showdown between Disney and Elaine Lee and Mike Kaluta over the rights to their sci-fi comic Starstruck appears to have been resolved.
In a Facebook post that was disseminated this morning by Bleeding Cool, longtime creator rights advocate Stephen Bissette revealed that Marvel's parent company sent a cease-and-desist demand to Lee and Kaluta challenging their ownership of Starstruck, which was released briefly in 1985 and 1986 under the publisher's Epic Comics imprint. But what initially appeared to be an instance of a media conglomerate bullying creators may have been a simple, if nerve-wracking, mistake on Disney's part.
"Just to make sure that things don't veer into the realm of 'truthiness,' Michael Kaluta and I received a letter that challenged our ownership of Starstruck and used the words, 'please stop all sales and other related activities,'" Lee clarified later today. "Through our lawyer, we provided two letters from Marvel's former publisher, Mike Hobson, that backed our ownership of Starstruck. Things seem to have calmed down now. The situation seems to have been resolved. (I'm overusing the word 'seems,' so as not to jinx myself. Knock wood.) It was scary. At first, we weren't sure we could find the 3-decades-old documents we needed. (From way back in the pre-digital days, youngsters. We're talking paper here. Dusty, old, yellow paper.) But there is no lawsuit. We think it may either have been about Disney's teen movie of a couple of years back, also called Starstruck. They may have found us while looking for people infringing on their property. Or they may have been simply trying to figure out what they still owned. But it was a frightening way to do it. So, this may have been an aberration, or other Epic creators may hear from them. Who knows? But creators may want to scare up that old paperwork. It can't hurt and might save you several days of abject fear."
A Marvel spokesman had no comment when contacted by Robot 6.
Publishing | ICv2 sits down for a three-part interview with DC Comics Co-Publishers Jim Lee and Dan DiDio that takes the long view of the past year, covering the launch of the New 52, the effect of digital and the loss of Borders, and the recent discussions around creators' rights. "It's a cyclical thing. It's an issue that constantly comes back," DiDio said. "We hear about the great jobs and the great books that creators might participate in, but what we don't hear about are all the books we've invested in over the years that never delivered, where we've invested in the talent and the time to make sure they had the opportunity to tell the stories they tell. It's a very big picture, and it's a very complex issue that can't be boiled down. One thing I feel the most strongly is that I feel extraordinarily confident that we do everything we can to make this a very creator friendly company, to make sure they have an opportunity to tell the stories they want to tell with our characters and also in their creator owned stories too." [ICv2]
Comic-Con | The dust hasn't even settled on Comic-Con International, and already the hand-wringing has begun anew over whether organizers will keep the event in San Diego past their 2015 contract. A proposed $550 million expansion of the San Diego Convention Center would have to break ground by the end of the year to meet a 2016 deadline. [Fox 5]
Conventions | To coincide with the 40th anniversary of the first San Diego Comic-Con, some of the founders are organizing San Diego Comic Fest, a small-scale event — it's described as "an old-school comic con" — to be held Oct. 19-21. [UT-San Diego]

There is actually a three way tie for the record of being named People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive.
Johnny Depp (born John Christopher Depp II on June 9, 1963 in Owensboro, Kentucky) won the honor in 2009 and 2003.
Brad Pitt (born William Bradley Pitt on December 18, 1963 in Shawnee, Oklahoma) took the title in 1995 and 2000.
George Clooney (born May 6, 1961, in Lexington, Kentucky) held the honor in both 1997 as well as 2006.
There is also a possible fourth winner, Richard Gere (born Richard Tiffany Gere on August 31, 1949 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania). In 1999 Gere won the title, after having held it (sort of) in 1993. The debate occurs because in 1993 he along with his wife Cindy Crawford were named Sexiest Couple of the Year, so some argue that Gere's first win doesn't count.

CORPUS CHRISTI (September 9, 2013)--Heavy rain drenched parts of South Texas and flooded some streets with enough water for boating.
The National Weather Service say parts of Corpus Christi received as much as 4 inches of rain Sunday and isolated showers continued Monday with a good chance of rain for several days.
A tropical depression that started Friday in the Bay of Campeche dissipated Saturday.
Some Texas A&M-Corpus Christi students took to kayaks Sunday in flooded parking lots.
The area remains in an extreme drought, but the weekend rainfall helped.
Corpus Christi's typically wettest month is September, during which an average of about 5 inches of rain typically falls.
AEP Texas had about 4,400 outages in the Corpus Christi area but most power was restored by Sunday night.

Excellent report.However, the morons in London, and premarket here in the USA are selling it off, down about 5%.Bizarre why they would sell off on a good report with increasing profits.From your link:"London. BP today reported a sharp year-on-year increase in fourth quarter profits as it announced that its oil and gas production increased by more than four per cent in 2009 and the company continued its industry-leading 17-year run of increasing reserves.The increase in production was well ahead of the company's expected long-term average growth rate of 1-2 per cent and reflected the ramp-up and start-up of major new projects, including the first full year of production from the Thunder Horse field in the US Gulf of Mexico. BP's reserve replacement ratio for the year was 129 per cent – making 2009 the seventeenth consecutive year of reserve replacement of at least 100 per cent."
I wouldn't be troubled too much by the London and NY exchanges marking down BP. Considering the mess they have caused on the financial markets we can ask with amusement just exactly what do they know. These are good results from BP. All of the negatives we hear from the market have obscured the fact that they have now overtaken SHELL. Things are improving at BP. Under the new management we are seeing the benefits of change. But this good news is not the real good news. The real good news is the bad news in that the changes have yet to percolate down to the operating facilities fully. The ordinary Joe on a facility who gets called out to fix things in the early hours of the morning still doesn't feel as though this is his company. There are still too many people out there who never spend more than a year on a job before moving to their next. But this is all changing, albeit slowly. So with the potential for improvements still to be made this is now becoming a solid company. Not an XOM where everyone wants to be the best at what they do, but an improving company with the promise of solid results over the next few years.
Excellent points. I am not selling my BP.

so when numbers are good...and things look bleak....and no one wants it is time to buy...joe terranova..and all the fast money guys love this stck for the dividend. and the growth...they are in all kinds of energy ..solar...etc...so cheap with a big divi...so take a chance...
Agreed.I already own BP. But the only thing stopping me from buying more is that it is already over my target allocation in my portfolio, and like BP-lover Jim Cramer tells us, you need to be diversified.Long term, I will keep on collecting dividends, and will add if/when BP drops below my target allocation in my portfolio.

Wintec digital resource developers Marlene Williamson and
Debbie Care told farmers to get to know their smartphones and
see what applications their systems hold and what
applications could be downloaded to benefit them in their
''They have a tool in their hands and it can do so much for
them,'' Mrs Williamson said.
A large amount of applications had been developed for
download to benefit farmers, such as measuring the amount of
effluent spread on to paddocks or accessing on farm figures
through smartphones.
Mrs Williamson added that it was not only the downloaded
applications that would benefit farmers, as they could also
use their smartphones' existing applications to do things
such as take voice memos or send group text messages to all
of the farm's staff.
Farmers were told they needed to make their phone work for
Mrs Williamson and Mrs Care were also in the process of
developing a program that would allow farm owners and workers
to access day-to-day information on their smartphones.
While the program was being developed for a computer, it
would also be accessible on the smartphone.
The programme would hold information such as what paddocks
the cows were in, which herd was coming in for milking first
- all information that was normally on the dairy shed's white
board, Mrs Williamson said.
The benefits of smartphones on farms was large and farmers
needed to utilise the asset that was ''always in their

Well, after discovering that the starred locations are also mirrored on Google Bookmarks, I wrote a Python script to scrape the coordinates and generate a KML file: Export Google Maps starred locations Go to Google Bookmarks: https://www.google.com/bookmarks/ On the bottom left, click "Export bookmarks": https://www.google.com/bookmarks/bookmarks.html?hl=...
Seeing that there's no convenient way of doing this provided by Google, I've created a tiny online app for export of your starred locations: http://gexport.somee.com/ It's very primitive, but it does the job. (credits to endolith for the idea of implementation)

It is possible to transfer starred items. In the old account, go through your starred items, and share them. Log into your new account, and follow the old account's shared items.

Easiest process was to go to Google Bookmarks, copy each of the starred items, and paste it to a note or Word doc. Log out of the Google account and log into the new Google account. Go to Google Maps. Paste each link from your doc into Google maps one by one and star each item as you go. Took me 5 minutes to do the 20 or so that I had. Very easy.
You can use an email client (e.g. Thunderbird) to download all your messages via POP - this will leave them online, but you will also have a local copy. This local copy can be backed up, which I do, or can be uploaded to another account. At least this worked for moving TO gmail, not sure if it will work for using a different provider.

School of Medicine > Internal Medicine > Residency Program > About Us > Chief Residents
Hometown: Leawood, KS
Medical School: Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences (KCU)
Ultimate Plan: Gastroenterology/Hepatology
I was born and raised in Kansas City and moved to Manhattan, KS for undergraduate education at Kansas State University. I returned to Kansas City for medical school at KCU, spending most of my time in Jefferson City, Missouri for clerkships. I was thrilled to return to my hometown for residency at KUMC and be close to family and friends! KU Medical Center has been a wonderful experience and I have been fortunate to have had outstanding mentors during my residency who have allowed me paramount research opportunities and great clinical education. My colleagues throughout residency have become like family and I look forward to coming to work every day. I am very proud to have trained at KUMC. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and son.
Hometown: Kansas City, MO
Undergrad: University of Missouri-Columbia
Medical School: Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences
I am originally from Kansas City, MO and attended KCU for my medical education. I was very interested in staying in the Kansas City area for my medical training and was very impressed with the internal medicine residency at the Unversity of Kansas. I was intiialy drawn to the patient complexities but also by the interactions between residents and their genuine enjoyment of working together. I feel very honored to have been part of such a wonderful group of residents and felt strongly enough to apply for a chief resident position. My career goals are to be a hospitalist and be involved with medical education.
Hometown: Dallas Center, IA
Medical School; Des Moines University
Ultimate Plan: Hospitalist
I was born and raised in Iowa and attended Iowa State University for undergraduate education. I was able to travel broadly for my clinical years in medical school. I was excited to finally settle in Kansas City and very grateful for the opportunity to train in such a well-rounded residency program. I feel that training at KUMC has allowed be to grow into an excellent and confident clinician. More importantly, I have thoroughly enjoyed working with such high quality program directors, staff, and fellow residents. Outside of work, I am involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters and enjoy spending time with my fiancé and friends, hiking, biking, and playing keyboard.
Hometown: Houston, TX
Medical School: University of Texas School of Medicine at San Antonio
Ultimate Plan: Pulmonary & Critical Care Medicine
Originally from the great State of Texas, my wife and I first called Kansas City home back in 2010. I am a graduate of KU's combined Internal Medicine & Psychiatry program and am thrilled to stay on as a Chief Resident this year. I was born and raised in the heart of Houston, TX. I attended undergraduate at the University of Texas at Austin and medical school at University of Texas HSC in San Antonio. KU Medical Center is a fantastic place to train for Internal Medicine. It will afford you with a broad clinical experience, exposure to a wide variety of disease processes and outstanding mentorship from dedicated Staff. Of equal importance, you will train amongst a group of supportive colleagues who's camaraderie is second to none. If I could do it over again, I would choose KU without hesitation. I currently live in Prairie Village with my wife and two boys.
Hometown: Olathe, KS
Medical School: University of Kansas Medical School
Ultimate Plan: Academic Outpatient Physician
I am a Jayhawk! I grew up in the Kansas City area, attended KU for undergrad and medical school, and then went on to complete my residency here as well. I feel lucky to have trained at an area that is close to home and with all the advantages of a large academic center. Throughout residency, I have enjoyed involvement with medical school education performing various lectures as well as co-leading discussion groups for reflection on medical education. I currently live in Overland Park with my husband and three boys.

In this session, learn about the benefits of the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) as a BIOS replacement. In addition to benefits, see common UEFI configurations and management scenarios, and a demonstration integrating UEFI in your deployment process with Microsoft Deployment Toolkit 2012 Update 1 and Microsoft System Center 2012 - Configuration Manager SP1.
Oops, something didn't work.
I'm looking forward to learn more about UEFI and its benefits.
huge. just diving into the technology, and looking forward to this breakout session
Looking forward on how to bring this into my Production environment.
Recently tried to do a clean install of windows 8 pro on 3Tb drive. Installation did not install with GPT on disk. WIll this session talk about this issue?
This is a must - since newer hw will be UEFI based. Will this also cover necessary drive layout and partition creation?
I would be interested in hearing about PXE boot via both network and USB network adapters using UEFI. Booting via USB key media seems to be the only option across multiple platforms.
Also, how to properly deploy and verify >2TB drive support with desktop systems.
@skarai: Thanks for the interest and the question. Yes the session will cover the drive layout and partitions. I am not there with Alfred, but if you have additional questions not in the presentation, feel free to ask Alfred afterwards.
@hippman:Thanks for the interest. You will hear info about booting with USB and across the network. However, most USB to NIC adapters are two stage drivers, and as of now I have not been able to implement one in PE successfully. But when one of us does, you can be sure a blog post will follow on Deployment Guys blog.
Spend too much time in deploying. I'll download and have a look at the ppt.

Hot on the heels of this morning's leak of the alleged front panel of the 4.7-inch iPhone 6, a new photo purportedly shows the battery of Apple's next-gen smartphone. The image seems to support rumors of a larger iPhone, requiring a larger battery.
Tiny BOLT Is A Charger And Backup Battery In One
The little BOLT Charger Battery is as clever as it is good looking. The USB wall-charger packs a backup battery into its tiny body, as body that leads its maker to call it the "The World's Smallest Wall Charger + Battery Backup."
I'm not sure how true that it, but who cares? It fits in your pocket and it'll juice your iPhone twice, even without a wall to shove it into.
Stay Charged With The TOCCs Ultra Slim iPhone 10 Hour Battery Case [Deals]
There is nothing worse then being stranded with no charger and no battery power. Life gets dangerous without your lifeline to the digital world.
The TOCCs Ultra Slim 10 Hour Battery Case is a lightweight and seamless solution to the inevitable battery problems of the iPhone 5/5s. Snap it in and you'll get to continuous use on your device, completely uninterrupted for up to 5 extra hours. And Cult of Mac Deals has it for 68% off the regular price…only $24.99!
Unu's Extreme Battery Pack Charges iPhone 5 Times, Fits In Your Pocket
Unu's new Enerpak Extreme is an update to my favorite battery backup brick. In fact, I have one here on my desk ready to review, but I thought I'd tell you about it first.
The Enerpak Extreme is a 14,000mAh battery pack that can charge an iPhone or an iPad, or both at the same time. It has two full-sized USB ports, one 1-Amp and one 2.1-Amp, plus a microUSB port for charging the device itself.
Solarpad. Finally, A Proper Solar Charger For Hikers And Bikers
At an RRP of $200, the Solarpad isn't the cheapest solar charger for your iPhone, but it does aim to be the best. Every detail has been tweaked to squeeze the last drop of juice from the Sun's photons, from the battery itself (the same kind as Tesla uses in its cars apparently), through the efficient charge controller (form Maxim) to the cables themselves (fatter, to let the current flow more easily, says the blurb).
What's more, you can pitch in early on Kickstarter and get a full setup for just $158 (right now anyway – the campaign only just launched).

David Grembowski serves as Director of the PhD Program in Health Services. Professor Grembowski's evaluation interests address prevention and the performance of health care systems, as well as the social determinants of population health and health inequalities. His studies have examined health care for adults with chronic conditions, efforts to improve quality by increasing access to care in integrated delivery systems; managed care and physician referrals; managed care and patient-physician relationships; cost-effectiveness of preventive services for older adults; fluoridation effects on oral health and dental demand; financial incentives and dentist adoption of preventive technologies; effects of dental insurance on dental demand, and the link between mother and child access to dental care.

This project, funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (Douglas Conrad, PI; David Grembowski, Co-PI), will perform cross-cutting evaluation of eight payment reform efforts designed to promote high-value health care outcomes through leveraging existing market knowledge, partnerships and resources in different states and regions of the United States.
Physician Networks and Children with Chronic Conditions
Funded by the Agency for Health Care Research and Quality. For children with asthma or diabetes, the purposes of this study are to examine whether out-of-network benefits and cost-sharing of managed health plans are associated with the likelihood of seeing an in-network vs. out-of-network physician, and secondly, to examine whether health quality and expenditures are similar or different for children seeing in-network vs. out-of-network physicians.
Linking Mother and Child Access to Dental Care
In Washington state's Medicaid population of children aged 3-6 years old, the aim is to determine whether having a mother with a regular source of dental care is associated with greater utilization of dental care and oral health in children in four racial/ethnic groups: White (non-Hispanic), Hispanic, African American, and other groups. Funded by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research.
Caries Prevention Study
Although new, effective technologies have emerged for controlling caries in children, only a minority of dentists have adopted them. A randomized trial is being conducted to determine whether financial incentives and provider education can increase dentist adoption of these technologies, and in turn, whether adoption results in reduced caries incidence and restorative services among at risk children with capitation dental insurance. Funded by NIDCR and Washington Dental Service.
Improving Access to Improve Quality: Evaluation of an Organizational Innovation
Funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the study is an evaluation of Group Health Cooperative's "Access Initiative." This innovation includes offering patients same-day appointments to primary care physicians, allowing them direct access to most specialists, and providing physicians with a $40 million clinical information system that offers up-to-the-minute patient health information. The study will determine how the initiative affects factors such as cost, utilization of services, quality of care, member enrollment, and patient and provider satisfaction.

Computability in Europe 2008
Logic and Theory of Algorithms
Regular Talk:
|Antonio Carlos Costa and Graçaliz Dimuro
|Fri, 11:20-11:40, Room 24 (col. 3)
This paper introduces the notion of "service scheme" to allow for a formal approach to the study of the realizability of "services" by "interactive systems". It shows how the organization-theoretic conceptual framework required by the notion of system service can be formally introduced in the Theory of Interactive Computation, and shows simple examples of its application. It then proposes that the fundamental problem of the Theory of Interactive Computation is the problem of the formal characterization of the class of all "computable service schemes", i.e., the formal characterization of the class of all service schemes realizable by interactive computational means.
