Fail Better
"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." Thomas Edison "Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly." Robert F. KennedyFor the past decade, we have been teaching with the idea of only one right answer. Failure was and is not an option. But the real way to learn is to try, fail, and try again. We learn from our failures. We also predict the future based on our past. However, we can learn from the past and all the failed predictions.

The fourth season of the hit HBO series Game of Thrones just ended last month and already we're looking ahead to what the fifth season of the show will contain. While the story is up for grabs it seems, as the show has demonstrated a knack for going against the books, the ever growing cast of the show is something to watch as well.
One storyline we can likely expect to see will revolve around the revenge of Oberyn Martell's family or at least more of an exploration of what he left behind. It seems as though we might see three of his daughters show up in the next season and one of those daughters could be played by an Oscar nominated actress.
According to the New Zealand Herald, Castle-Hughes has joined the cast of Game of Thrones in an unspecified role for Season 5.
Queen of Kiwi movie screens Keisha Castle-Hughes is believed to have landed a role in wildly popular TV series Game of Thrones.
The Herald on Sunday understands that Castle-Hughes, who rose to stardom aged 13 in an Academy Award-nominated performance as hero Paikea in Kiwi film Whale Rider, told friends she had landed a role on the smash-hit fantasy series.
It's all rumors at the moment and we may not see this go anywhere, but Castle-Hughes is an excellent choice for the series and it appears that her role could be significant if she is indeed cast.

- The company beat 2Q earnings consensus by 83%.
- We are still bearish on the company given its valuation and exposure to Europe.
- The recent quarterly beat was due to some one-time gains, but the company expects to see pockets of weakness which is in our forecast.

US STOCKS-Wall St surges into close on euro zone hopes
* Trading volume surges in final hour* Banks rally; Bank of America up 10 pct* Indexes up: Dow 1.6 pct, S&P 2 pct, Nasdaq 1.6 pctBy Angela MoonNEW YORK, Oct 18 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks surged late in trading on Tuesday as buyers latched onto another report of agreements to strengthen the euro zone's rescue fund to bid up stocks aggressively.All three major indexes rose sharply after a Britain's Guardian newspaper said France and Germany will increase the euro zone's rescue fund to 2 trillion euros as part of a plan to resolve the sovereign debt crisis.Investors and buyers piled into financial shares, which had started the day weak but gained momentum on the late news. Shares of Bank of America rose 10.1 percent to $6.64 and trading volume for the Direxion Financial Bull 3X ETF jumped to the highest since April 2010.The development from Europe is "really what we had been rallying on for the past two weeks before Germany yesterday signaled that the issue wasn't quite resolved," said Larry Peruzzi, senior equity trader at Cabrera Capital Markets in Boston."But the direction of the market can easily reverse if we get something bad again from Europe."Bank of America shares had been lower after it reported a third-quarter profit but showed its main businesses struggled as income from lending and investment banking fell.Goldman Sachs Group Inc added 5.5 percent to $102.25 after reporting a rare loss, but Goldman said it was moving to cut costs, including employee pay.Trading picked up shortly after the Guardian report, with 2.9 billion shares exchanging hands in the final hour on the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Amex and Nasdaq. A total of 8.8 billion shares traded for the day, above the year's daily average so far of about 8 billion.The Dow Jones industrial average was up 180.05 points, or 1.58 percent, at 11,577.05. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index was up 24.52 points, or 2.04 percent, at 1,225.38. The Nasdaq Composite Index was up 42.51 points, or 1.63 percent, at 2,657.43.The CBOE Volatility Index VIX , Wall Street's "fear gauge," was down nearly 5 percent but still remained elevated above 30.Financial stocks were the top gainers. The KBW bank index advanced 5.6 percent.U.S. homebuilder stocks were helped by strong homebuilder sentiment data, signaling improvement in the housing market.Shares of KB Home rose 11.6 percent to $7.02.

NEWSMAKER-UPDATE 1-Rich Kinder: Big deals, major philanthropist
* Big donor to education, children (Adds links to Breakingviews columns, Insider program)By Anna DriverHOUSTON, Oct 17 (Reuters) - Judging by Wall Street's warm embrace of Richard Kinder's $21 billion deal to buy El Paso Corp, he is still — to borrow the phrase once used to describe his former Enron colleagues — the smartest guy in the room.With the deal, the Texas billionaire who started his business in 1997 by buying pipeline assets from Enron for $40 million, will create the largest oil and gas transportation company in North America with 80,000 miles of pipeline.Analysts applauded the deal, which used Kinder Morgan's relatively high stock valuation and relatively low cost of capital to pick up the nation's largest natural gas network."He's still perceived to be the smart guy out of the old Enron organization," said Duane Grubert, an analyst at Susquehanna Financial Group. "The respect for his creative dealmaking continues to be really high."If Kinder, CEO and chairman of Houston-based Kinder Morgan Inc (KMI.N), manages to sell off El Paso's (EP.N) exploration and production assets around the same time the deal closes, he could almost immediately pay back most of the money his company is borrowing for the $11.5 billion cash portion of the deal.Kinder Morgan's shares rose as much as 10 percent on Monday, the day after the deal was announced. [ID:nN1E79F06X]>^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^For Breakingviews columns on the deal, please click on[ID:nN1E79G0GN] [ID:nN1E79F0BG]For a Reuters Insider program click on:link.reuters.com/xed54s^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^>Kinder Morgan was put together through a string of deals, including some with marquee private equity names including Carlyle Group [CYL.UL], Goldman Sachs Inc's (GS.N) buyout arm Highstar Capital and Riverstone Holdings."This is not the first rodeo we've done," Kinder reminded analysts on a conference call with investors on Monday.HEIR APPARENTKinder, a Missouri native, joined Florida Gas in the early 1980s and was reunited with University of Missouri friend Kenneth Lay when Lay's Houston Natural Gas acquired the Florida company.In 1985, Houston Natural Gas merged with Nebraska's InterNorth to form Enron Corp, with Lay as CEO.As Enron's president and chief operating officer, Kinder was known as the guy who made the trains run on time and kept spending in check.Unlike Lay, whose extravagant lifestyle included a liking for Gulfstream jets with catered lunches, Kinder was satisfied with a cheaper Cessna for quick business trips.Until the mid-1990s, Kinder, now 66, had been considered Lay's heir apparent as CEO. But Jeffrey Skilling, whom Enron had poached from consultancy McKinsey & Co years earlier, caught Lay's attention by engineering Enron's transformation from a pipeline company into a trading giant and became the CEO-in-waiting.Kinder left Enron in December 1996, and in February 1997 he founded Kinder Morgan with longtime friend Bill Morgan, the pair having spent about $40 million to acquire some Enron pipeline and associated assets that the energy giant no longer considered core to its ambitious operations.Enron collapsed in 2001, its demise chronicled in a best-selling book "The Smartest Guys in the Room," by Bethany McLean and Peter Elkind.In December 2006 Kinder, then-retired Morgan and other members of the board, including Houston financier Fayez Sarofim, acquired Kinder Morgan for $15 billion and took it private.STRAIGHT SHOOTERKinder, who ranks 46th on Forbes' list of richest Americans, has an estimated worth of $6.4 billion, according to the magazine.Still, the affable and plain-spoken executive parks in the same garage as his employees and is often spotted in his office building lobby sporting short-sleeved shirts, not the dark suit normally expected of an oil industry billionaire.Kinder, who served as a captain in the U.S. Army in Vietnam, and wife Nancy are generous donors to a number of philanthropies benefiting education and children.They are a fixture on Houston's social circuit, often appearing in photos in magazines and websites that chronicle the city's glitterati."Both of them are some of the most highly philanthropic people in this city," said Shelby Hodge, editor-at-large for Houston's dominant social and entertainment website, culturemap.com. "They are straight shooters and very careful stewards of that money."Kinder's mother was a schoolteacher and in her memory, the couple has lavished on millions on the cause of furthering education, Hodge said.Through a foundation, the Kinders have already given millions to fund an urban research institute at Rice University in Houston, a program to award teachers, and a research effort to screen middle-school students with difficult-to-detect heart abnormalities.Kinder and his wife have also joined the Giving Pledge movement, launched by Warren Buffett and Bill Gates, by committing to give the majority of their wealth to charity.Kinder Morgan shares closed 4.8 percent higher at $28.19 on a day that the S&P 500 index fell 2 percent.

UPDATE 1-Watts Water settles with SEC on bribery probe
* Resolves all govt investigations regarding co's China unitOct 14 (Reuters) - Plumbing products maker Watts Water Technologies Inc agreed to pay U.S. regulators about $3.8 million to settle allegations of bribery against employees of its former unit in China.The company had received information from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in July 2009 regarding possible improper payments to foreign government officials by employees of Watts Valve Changsha Co Ltd.Watts Water, which makes valves that control water flow, filtration systems and drainage devices, agreed to pay the SEC $3.6 million in interests and $200,000 in penalties.Watts Water expects that the settlement will resolve all government investigations concerning the unit's sales practices and potential U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act violations, it said in a filing with the SEC.Shares of North Andover, Massachusetts-based Watts Water were up 2 percent at $29.68 in afternoon trading on Friday on the New York Stock Exchange.

Romney says Christie would be on Vice President list
"We agree on a whole host of issues," Romney said. "We've spent time together over the last year getting to know each other better. I've asked for his counsel on policy matters and so I think we're pretty sympathetic on the issues that matter."Asked if, as party nominee, he would have Christie on his vice presidential short list, Romney replied: "Of course. He'd be on anyone's short list."Christie, a popular Republican figure who many hoped would seek the party's presidential nomination, officially withdrew from consideration last week and endorsed Romney on Tuesday to be the party's choice to run against President Barack Obama in the 2012 presidential campaign.The move by Christie, known for his straight-talking conservatism, could go far in dispelling doubts about Romney's conservative credentials that have kept many potential supporters on the sidelines.Christie told NBC he endorsed Romney without any promises from the candidate, who recently reclaimed his Republican front-runner status from Texas Governor Rick Perry.Christie was characteristically demure about the possibility of running for national office as a vice presidential nominee. "Honestly, I don't know I'd be anybody's good match," he said.But Romney seemed to disagree."The truth is that Governor Christie is one of the leading figures in the Republican Party," he said."Anyone who becomes our nominee is going to look at people like Governor Christie and say: 'Well, that would be a terrific person to have on the ticket.'"

Chicago police arrest 21 protesters for trespassing
The arrests came a day after thousands of people including teachers, religious leaders and union workers marched in downtown Chicago to voice mounting anger over joblessness and economic woes in protests that snarled rush-hour traffic.Those marches, organized by the "Stand Up Chicago" coalition, had appeared to target financial events in the city including a conference of the Mortgage Bankers Association, which was also subject to protesters' ire on Tuesday.Organizers said Monday's march was inspired by, but not formally affiliated with, the Occupy Wall Street movement that began in New York last month and sparked smaller protests nationwide.On Tuesday, 16 people were arrested at a protest at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Chicago where the annual conference of the Mortgage Bankers Association was underway, the Chicago Police spokesman said.The people arrested at the conference were facing charges of misdemeanor trespassing, he said.Separately, five women aged 55 to 80 from the Action Now group were also arrested after they took garbage from a foreclosed home owned by Bank of America Corp and dumped it in one of the bank's branches, the group's website said.Police said that group was also facing charges of misdemeanor trespassing.Action Now, which calls itself an organization of working families fighting for change, said Bank of America had not properly shuttered the foreclosed home from which the group took the furniture and garbage."Since Bank of America will not go to our neighborhoods and clean up their vacant properties, Action Now members brought the neighborhood to them," the group said on its website.Bank of America did not immediately respond to an after-hours request for comment.Chicago has also seen several weeks of daily protests outside the Federal Reserve Bank by "Occupy Chicago," an echo of the larger Wall Street protests.

U.S. reveals Volcker rule's murky ban on Wall St. bets
The rule, required by last year's Dodd-Frank financial oversight law, is aimed at avoiding a repeat of the 2007-2009 financial crisis by curbing excessive risk-taking.It has been difficult for the government to craft a rule that reins in Wall Street while protecting the trades that big banks execute on behalf of clients.Regulators are giving the public until January 13, 2012, to comment on the rule. That is more time than expected, and could result in more pressure to change elements of the rule.The proposal includes more than 350 questions that regulators want interested parties to weigh in on, particularly on how the government should write exemptions that allow banks to still make markets for their customers and hedge risk in their portfolios."Only in today's regulatory climate could such a simple idea become so complex, generating a rule whose preamble alone is 215 pages, with 381 footnotes to boot," American Bankers Association Chief Executive Frank Keating said in a statement."How can banks comply with a rule that complicated, and how can regulators effectively administer it in a way that doesn't make it harder for banks to serve their customers and further weaken the broader economy?" he asked.On the other side of the issue, the consumer coalition Americans for Financial Reform said regulators warped a simple ban into a weak crackdown that is weighted toward preserving banks' flexibility."Unfortunately, the proposal issued today falls well short of what the Volcker Rule could and should achieve," AFR said.The Federal Reserve and other bank regulators acknowledged in the proposal that it will be challenging for the government to identify "proprietary trading" that will be banned under the rule.The proposal said drawing the line between prohibited and permitted trading "often involves subtle distinctions that are difficult both to describe comprehensively within regulation and to evaluate in practice."The rule is expected to have the most impact on large banks such as Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan Chase, and could shave off billions of dollars in annual revenues."CUMBERSOME" RULEThe Volcker rule, named after former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker who championed the measure, aims to prevent banks from making risky trades by prohibiting short-term trading for their own profit in securities, derivatives and other financial products.It will also prohibit banks from investing in, or sponsoring, hedge funds or private equity funds.The idea behind the rule is to prevent banks that enjoy some sort of government safety net, such as deposit insurance on customer accounts or access to Fed money, from using that backstop to make money for themselves.Industry groups have argued for broad exemptions for trades done to make markets for customers, and for trades used to hedge against certain risks in the banks' portfolios.The proposal includes both types of exemptions, but it is difficult to determine how they will work in practice.At a minimum, the proposed rule would increase costs and discourage firms from making markets in securities, said Dwight Smith, a partner at Morrison & Foerster LLP, a law firm which works with investment banks."It calls for some very precise management of that business and some very detailed record-keeping," said Smith. "It becomes very cumbersome."The impact of the proposed rule will likely be discussed with investors as banks host quarterly earnings calls starting Thursday with JPMorgan.Barclays Capital analyst Jason Goldberg said in an October 7 research report that executives would be well-served to show investors how they will cope with the Volcker rule restrictions, with bank stocks already beaten down this year.Regulators on Tuesday acknowledged that controversy has surrounded the Volcker rule from the outset."The proposed rule has been noted as long, the issues are complex, so I think we made the right decision in allowing the full 90 days for comment," said John Walsh, acting director of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, which oversees the nation's largest banks.Walsh spoke at a meeting of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp board which agreed on Tuesday to put the proposal out for comment.The Securities and Exchange Commission is due to discuss the Volcker rule proposal at a meeting on Wednesday. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission has yet to announce how it will proceed.The proposal released by bank regulators on Tuesday is largely similar to a draft of the rule leaked last week that received a mixed reaction from industry groups.The Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, for instance, raised concerns about whether the exemption for market-making trades is too narrow.Randy Snook, a SIFMA executive vice president, said on Tuesday that financial firms need to be able to provide capital and liquidity to markets."There is a real legitimate concern here that everything gets cast as prop trading. This isn't just about speculative activity, in our mind," Snook said.A note released on Monday by Bernstein Research said, based on the draft, that the rule "will have a very negative impact on the business models of fixed-income trading for Wall Street brokers." Bernstein estimates the impact could be 25 percent less in revenues.To stop foreign-owned banks reaping a windfall or skirting the rule, prohibited trades cannot be conducted if a party to the transaction is a U.S. resident or a bank employee involved in the transaction is physically located in the United States.Under the Dodd-Frank law, the Volcker rule goes into effect on July 21, 2012.

Getting there from here
Depending on how you look at it, August may not have been as bad a month for stocks as advertised. For the month as a whole, the MSCI all-country world stock index lost more than 7.5 percent. This was the worst performance since May last year, and the worst August since 1998. But if you had bought in at the low on August 9, you would have gained healthy 8.5 percent or so. In a similar vein, much is made of the fact that the S&P 500 index ended 2009 below the level it started 2000, in other words, took a loss in the decade. That completely ignores, however, a more than doubling of the index between 2002 and 2007. There is a danger sometimes in allowing the calendar to dictate your interpretation of financial market behaviour.

A dish that nobody at home can complain about (unless they are vegetarian). Delicious tomato sauce combined with tasty bacon, all baked with melted cheese on top.
Recipe by: hulk_rage_guy
This is the perfect choice when you fancy a change from meat, and it will appeal to the whole family. For a well-balanced meal, start with a root vegetable soup, and serve the loaf with a mixed salad and crusty bread.
Recipe by: Norma MacMillan
This is a super quick vegetarian pasta dish. Gorgonzola cheese makes for a great pasta sauce and pairs very well with spinach.
Recipe by: gartenfee
Introduce vegetables to old favourites for up-to-the-minute healthy family meals. This well-loved pasta dish is delicious with mushrooms, peas and peppers added. Using a small amount of powerful Roquefort cheese ensures that the sauce is creamy and full flavoured, but not too high in fat.
Recipe by: Norma MacMillan
This version of an all-time favourite makes use of lower-fat dairy products and dry-cured ham instead of bacon to make a healthier dish with no compromise on flavour. To complete the meal, a salad suggestion is included as part of the recipe, but you can always make your favourite leafy accompaniment if you prefer.
Recipe by: Norma MacMillan
This is an attractive recipe to serve as a main dish, and it is equally good served as a first course, when it will provide 8 portions. Serve a fresh, crisp green salad as an accompaniment, taking advantage of the wide range of leaves and green vegetables that can be eaten raw.
Recipe by: Norma MacMillan
This seven-layer salad takes some inspiration from the salads they sell at Boots or M&S (pasta shells and julienned carrots) and some inspiration from my gran (curry powder and brown sugar). This makes a really refreshing, flavourful salad that I simply love and that my friends request at barbecues!
Recipe by: Miss Sriri
The classic combination of feta cheese, spinach and pine nuts is used in this recipe. The filling is used in fresh pasta to make ravioli. Serve with an olive oil, fresh parsley and garlic dressing.
Recipe by: Matthew Valleau
A wonderfully satisfying and hearty soup, made by simmering chicken, onion, carrots, broccoli and cheese tortellini together in a chicken stock. Serve with crusty bread.
Recipe by: JOANG2
The perfect way to use asparagus when in-season. Macaroni is heated with asparagus, eggs, Pecorino Romano and fresh parsley. It's deliciously creamy and totally moreish.

Horse Thief Campground & RV Resort
[ 7/10 ]
Very nice park with VERY sloped sites, which is to be expected in the Black Hills. Bathrooms were nice, pool was clean, and the staff was friendly. WiFi not available while we were there. Told us it would be working the "next" day. The next day would come and we were told the "next" day. I needed internet access for work, and had planned on it, but never got it. No TV channels available, nor will you probably have a cell phone signal.
Decatur, Michigan
Leisure Valley RV Resort
[ 7/10 ]
The campground is pretty nice overall. The showers are old, but were clean. Pool was small, but it was very clean. The kids playground equipment was a joke. The sites are not real deep, but plenty wide enough for your slide to go out and not be on top of the next guy. They do advertise wi-fi, but it is only available about 5 feet from the office. The fishing was pretty good with bluegill, bass, and perch caught, and no license required. We would probably go back.
Ludington, Michigan
Poncho's Pond RV Park
[ 10/10 ]
I can't think of a negative thing to write about this park. For those with kids, it is the greatest. For those looking for the great outdoor adventure, this place isn't for you. It's right in the middle of town. So much to do there and in the surrounding area. Everything was spotless, the staff was kind and helpful, and the sites were great, being concrete with a nice patio. Making reservations for it again right now.
Hopkins, Michigan
Hidden Ridge RV Resort
[ 9/10 ]
First time here and we loved the place! Didn't mind taking the garbage up front (4 dumpsters now - no waiting!). Only thing keeping it from being a 10 is the lack of shade. We do like our trees, and there are very few of them. Everything else is top notch, from the showers to the pool to the playground and staff. The pavilion is brand new, and they have music and entertainment in there on the weekends. We are figuring out when our next trip will be. During the week they have a "Pay for 2 nights - get the 3rd night free" deal, which we took advantage of.
Howe, Indiana
Twin Mills Resort
[ 8/10 ]
Stayed over a weekend, and lots to do for the kids. Everything was clean and well kept. Some sites were grassy, but others were mostly sand. If you have kids, stay on the north side of Rt. 120 (The campground is split by Rt. 120), as this is where the pool and arcade are located. The southern part of the campground is very quiet... We will go back soon.
Granger, Indiana
South Bend / Elkhart North KOA
[ 8/10 ]
Stayed 3 nights with our 6 and 8 y/o boys. They did have a lot of fun. Restrooms and showers very clean, nice little waterpark next door (With a discount for campers!), and a fenced in dog run (Nice touch). Sites are a little close together or I would rate it even higher. Trains don't bother us - we have them at home :)
Bristol, Indiana
Eby's Pines Campground
[ 5/10 ]
Also camped here in July '05. It is pretty rundown, especially the seasonals. However, the showers and restrooms were very clean, the pool was spotless (With a certified lifeguard), and the playground was very modern. Our kids had fun. The roads are dirt and sand. There are some nice W/E sites around the big fishing pond they have that are very level, grassy sites. The sites along the Elkhart River are for tents only. We will try it again sometime.

A reorganization of diocesan offices has resulted in a new Secretary for Catholic Education as well as a new Superintendent for Catholic Schools.
The Diocese of Fort Wayne-South Bend announced the appointees to the position last week.
Carl Loesch, the current principal of Marian High School in Mishawaka, was chosen for the newly created secretary job.
Marsha Jordan, who had been serving for a little more than a month as the interim superintendent of Catholic Schools was given the job permanently.
Jordan took over for Mark Myers, who served as superintendent since 2009.
Carl has much education and experience in school administration, teaching and theology, said Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades in a statement about Loesch's appointment.
I am looking forward to his leadership now on a broader scale, serving the important mission of catechesis and education throughout the diocese.
Jordan graduated from Indiana University with a bachelor's degree in biology and has been a biology teacher and was a dorm mother at Wawasee Preparatory in the 1970s.
She's also been dean of girls at Bishop Dwenger High School and principal of Queen of Angels School in Fort Wayne.
Marsha's education and experience and her strong commitment to the mission of our Catholic schools have been a blessing to our diocese, Rhoades said.
The diocese is forming a search committee to find a new principal at Marian High School, as Loesch's appointment begins July 1.

Abstract. This study examines the seasonality of tropical lower-stratospheric temperature trends using the Microwave Sounding Unit lower-stratospheric channel (T4) for 1979–2007. We present evidence that this seasonality is a response to changes in the Brewer–Dobson circulation (BDC) driven by extratropical wave forcing. We show how the tropical T4 trend can be used as an indicator of the change in the BDC, and find that the BDC is strengthening for 1979–2007 in June–November related to the Southern Hemisphere (SH) and in December–February to the Northern Hemisphere (NH). In marked contrast, we find that the BDC is weakening in March–May, apparently because of a weakening of its northern cell. The novel observational evidence on the seasonal dependence of the BDC trends presented in this study has important implications for the understanding of climate change in the stratosphere as well as testing climate model simulations.

What's your sign?
Paul Gilmartin, host of The Mental Illness Happy Hour podcast, and Marc Maron are two very disturbed individuals that have made quite illustrious careers utilizing their neuroses. Put the two of them together on WTF with Marc Maron and you've got a conversation that, at times, was at the height of self-loathing. Subjects that were touched upon include: alcoholism, suicide attempts, psychotherapy, and depression. They also talked a little about comedy. It was HILARIOUS.
There was a common thread amongst the improv scenes today on Improv4Humans, which was semen and the consumption, nay, guzzling of said bodily fluid. Chad Carter, Katie Dipold and Gil Ozeri were guests and as always, Matt Besser took improv story suggestions from Twitter. There were a couple of scenes that went nowhere, but on the whole, this episode was great. It made me want to look further into my family history.
I was most excited to hear The Nerdist's Writer's Panel today because of Vince Gilligan, creator of Breaking Bad. And as I hoped, he provided a treasure trove of wisdom about writing and directing. The panel also included Julie Plec (developer of Vampire Diaries), Josh Friedman (developer of Sarah Connor Chronicles), and Jeff Greenstein (Desperate Housewives; Will and Grace). They all had a lot of interesting things to say; Vince Gilligan fessed that he doesn't have Twitter or Facebook in order to avoid comments from his fans. And then a couple writers on the panel admitted that they hate writing. Listen to the ep to find out who.
Superego had a huge group of guests with Greg Proops, Patton Oswalt, Paul F. Tompkins, Chris Tallman, Jeff Davis, Susan Burke, Emily Maya Mills, Lizzy Cooperman, James Bladon, and Amanda Lund. Patton Oswalt as Richard Dawson on Family Feud was really the highlight of the show. Even though his impression is not quite the likeness of the game show host, he painted a super funny picture of what it would be like if Family Feud had a bunch of dullards on it. Paul F. Tompkins played a few of those numskull contestants like Vanessta and Dotchard.
For many years, I was devoted to The Paul F. Tompkins show at Largo and also when he came to San Francisco. Now that I live far away from his staged comedy, I appreciate every moment with him on the Pod F. Tompkast. His openings are off the cuff and a lesson in how people used to speak in an older day. He'll then go into his impressions on "The Great Undiscovered Project". Today's ep featured Werner Herzog, Cake Boss, and Arianna Huffington. Then he'll play a recording from The Paul F. Tompkins show; this one was titled "Lice Capades", featuring Judy Greer (recorded live at San Francisco SketchFest). As always, he has a phone conversation with his bestie, Jen Kirkman and today, "Community's" Gillian Jacobs visited The Internet.

In a county that makes so much money from tourists parading half naked on the beach, this is an extreme over-reaction. Did we get transported back to the fifties? I think some wives clubs are behind this. Sort your problems out at home ladies. The police have A LOT more important things on their plate.
i dont believe this is right because it is making the community look bad
Dammit...wtf do they care! we don't want these people in here anyways. Who gives a F*#@k what they wear beach, goers wear less when they sunbath in Newport or Huntington. .
I need coffee. Let them pour, let them pour, let them pour...All businesses should have these girls.
It's the AMERICAN TALIBAN again.
What BS! I don't see pasties & the girls are covered up.
Garden Grove Cops sux. Go catch gang bangers not the bunnies you idiots
Maybe the cops are concerned the waitress/s are offering a "happy ending" with the coffee, or maybe they already are.
While the cops are busy messing with the coffee shops.. criminals are busy stealing your car and breaking into your home. Cops are around to serve and protect. Not pass judement on clothing.
They DO serve damn good coffee.
Not in-line with the constitution. It's the old fashioned moral view of some against the freedom rights of all. Bye bye what America used to stand for.
This reminds me of a Seinfeld episode.
That's bull sh*t!!!!!!!!!! I'm from San Jose and I've been to down to LA just in the past 2 months and it was great if ppl that live down there don't like the gals and what they wear or lack wearing well no one is putting a gut to their head and making them go to the coffee shops so I say F*CK THEM and there are more important things to worry about then this petty bull sh*t that they are bickering about!!!
they need an outlet at Angels staduiumyears ago the original founder of the Ritz in Newport had a group of men called Ritz Brothersnot sure how you joined/got invited but it was a private group that reserved a banquet room for lunches occasionally and the waitresses all wore negligees
I'm so relieved to learn that Garden Grove's "authorities" have nothing better to do than to start sticking their noses into private businesses. That means they've solved all the crime and other pressing social problems, right?
Those sexy cafe getting too hot that I even saw the topless girls with only a small string thong served tea from a parking lot in front of a shop on Tully Rd of San Jose. What if your young kids saw that? And now with police investigated, those shops serve gambling & even selling drugs (or maybe selling sex too!) What if your college young adult getting into those places. Common, don't be selfish! Everybody needs to release stresses, but not in the way bringing negative effects to other peoplle life.
It sounds to me like the proposed regulations are being pushed down the throats of the City Council by The Chief. I have been to a couple of these places, and I find nothing wrong with them, I am sure some of the Vietnamese regulars do not like non-viets in "their" place, and people that gamble will find a way to do it anywhere.
LOL I wonder if anyone has considered a Chippendales type Coffee shop catering to women or...? I wish I had a body that I could flaunt and make enough to drive to work in a new Lexus or Mercedes. But I do not imagine many would pay to watch a scantily clad portly old white dude walking around serving tea! LOL
As a law-abiding citizen, I'd feel it necessary to admonish any waitress flaunting too much flesh while I sipped my jackfruit smoothie, but I've thankfully forgotten the Vietnamese for "areola" and "natal cleft."
"Jackfruit." Heh, heh.
This is fucking pathetic. All of you need something better to do than worry about regulating a place in which working men come for a release from the everyday stresses of life. Conservative America makes me sick.
Don't blame the police for doing their job. Blame the City Council for thinking this made them look Concerned About Their Community. The real pervert is the kind of person who would outlaw tinted windows so the police can look into all the shops, or who thinks long and hard about how to regulate the servers' clothing.
man, this is bringing back my asian fettish!actually, i stopped by to visit one of these as i exited a nearby restaurant. the girls caught my eyes as i walked near their establishment. they were all cute, friendly, and polite. i received the typical conversation that i normally get from a bartender working hard for a tip. nothing more , nothing less.i wont go back: $7 for an iced-tea. the eye candy was nice but it wasn't all that. these chinita viejas have beautiful skin, cute faces, fake boobs, but no NALGAS! i am a wab and i like to see a nice booty not a flat one... chinitas, when getting implants, ask for the 2 for 1 package to include nalgas....
No doubt that the complainer on this subject is an over weight short haired bitter at life and self hating woman that can't stand the thought of some man she knows going in here and enjoying what he drinks and sees, or the wife of someone demanding that he take a stand.(same woman either way). Ever notice that you never see a hot woman bitching about hot women. Hmm !!. Biker Jim
You are beautiful young ladies, however there are so many creeps out there I fear for you. Please be careful. And as far as the police go I am sure most of them have a lover or two besides their significant other... and they are enjoying the view.
The funny thing is the news didnt tell you that the garden grove cops like to hang out there and ogle over the girls too while theyre on duty
hey crybabies, your kids shouldnt be drinking coffee anyway, and make sure not to take them to the beach where they migh just see the same bikini on another girl..
No crimes been committed. Garden grove pd chief must not stopped all crime to worry about something like this.
So...what about the beach?
i love how gang activity is being blamed on women's bodies.
And the war on fun here in America continues.
would this ordinance then prohibit a bared midriff? everything from the "top of the areola down" would seem to include navels and kneecaps
Guess I know where I'm going for coffee today.

Gotta love women with loads of makeup, little clothing, and no self-esteem!
wtf? There isn't any booze being served, so nobody gets out of control. Seriously, cops need to go fight crimes , not this lame Nanny crap.. I bet the city council happily accepts these businesses tax revenue each year. Talk about shooting oneself in the foot, do they think business will pickup after this arcane ordinance?
I see nothing wrong....I can find those revealing skins at the beach or Victoria secret mazagines.
In our Dreams
@Mr. Rosewater im with you because cops and the public need to do something bout this
i found some better places on rubmaps dot com
SERIOUSLY? Has no man or woman heard of HOOTERS? Ridiculous.....
You can show some bits at the beach, but you can't have a coffee business. Bits and coffee don't agree, apparently.
No, the "top of the areola down" just applies to the breast. Good question.
Or, given the clientele: không thích, không đi!
Yea, all their "Self Esteem" goes into the bank account!
The Tactic is Regulate, then reap the profits from "Violation Notices" for petty violations of Laws Passed by a Police State. What the Chief is probably pissed about is they more than likely spend thousands of Undercover Manhours trying to get convictions for prostitution, but no prostitution occurred, & the DA determined there were no Violations of Law occurring. "Dammit! I KNOW they are dirty! I just cannot prove it"
Then emptied out when the rent's due. What a great life they must live...

Indian-origin businessman loses appeal against extradition
An Indian-origin businessman in Britain, accused of arranging the killing of his wife during a honeymoon trip to South Africa, has lost his appeal against extradition.
Shrien Dewani, 33, is now faced with extradition to South Africa within four weeks after he lost his last legal battle to block the move over the charges of killing his wife Anni in November 2010 in Cape Town, BBC reported Monday.
Dewani's legal team wanted their appeal against extradition to be heard in the Supreme Court but a panel headed by the Chief Justice Lord Thomas refused to entertain the case.
Dewani, a businessman from Bristol, is compulsorily detained under the Mental Health Act after being diagnosed with severe depression and post-traumatic stress disorder in a hospital.
Dewani's lawyer Mark Summers told the High Court in London that his client's "underlying medical condition" may have become chronic, making it "untreatable".
He argued that more time was needed to fight the ruling, as his client's mental health was making him ineligible for extradition.
Refusing to entertain the plea against extradition, Lord Thomas said: "The provisions of the Extradition Act are designed to ensure extradition is a speedy process.
"I, therefore, pronounce (that) any period that is applicable under the relevant legislation will run from today (Monday)."
Outside the court, Anni's father, Vinod Hindocha, said the family was satisfied with the court's verdict.
He said the legal process had been a "torture" for his family.
"I really don't know what happened to my daughter. We need answers. We hope to get justice," Hindocha said.

The Frugal Gamer
- Tuesday, October 20, 2009
Gears of War features ugly aliens invading Earth and brave soldiers making them regret that decision. As bullets fly, aliens come out of holes in the ground throwing grenades and helicopters fly over head dropping in troops, etc. It's beautiful chaos thanks to the wonderful controls and smooth graphics. Oh, and don't forget one of the most unique aspects of the combat in Gears of War… your machine gun has a chainsaw attached to it. Yes, a chainsaw.
The replay value of Gears of War is also phenomenal, as friends will no doubt want to play against you in split screen action or online against several people at the same time. And while the second installment of the Gears of War franchise is already out, there are still plenty of people playing the first title online. Who knows? By the time you finish the first one, maybe Gears of War 3 will be come out and you can pick up Gears of War 2 (also awesome) for cheap.
Rated M for Mature.
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare | Playstation 3, Xbox 360, PC, Mac | $40
This is the last first-person shooter on the list, but easily one of the best of all time. The Call of Duty series has been a fan favorite since the first title, but none of received the emphatic applause that Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare was awarded. In fact, after Call of Duty 5: World at War failed to be everything its predecessor was and more, Infinity Ward chose to make a second Modern Warfare game launching in November.
What does this mean for you? It means you can pick up a high quality game for cheaper and cheaper the closer it gets to the release date for the second installment. Even well after the new title comes out, tens of thousands of players will still be playing Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare online across various modes of gameplay. This is where the game truly shines. The online multiplayer experience of Call of Duty 4 is some of the best ever. The maps are strategic and detailed, the explosions loud, and the field populated with all levels of player aptitude. The online play is both addictive and endless.
Rated M for Mature
Boom Blox | Wii | $25-$30
Party games are always in demand. People come over and you pull out a bowl of chips, some dip and hopefully your Wii. Throw in a copy of Boom Blox and the party might go a little longer than expected.
Steven Spielberg made this game. Yes, the same guy who made E.T. made this game. Is it anything like his movies? No. But is it good? Yes. Boom Blox is a puzzle game where you throw, grab, yank and pull things using the Wii mote to rack up more points than your friends (or reach a goal in first player mode). The main gameplay involves you throwing baseballs and bowling balls at stacks of blocks, knocking them off pedestals for points. You also pull blocks out of structures while being careful to not make them fall. In this mode, it benefits you to be a tad reckless, causing your friends to have to pull blocks out of a structure a million times more wobbly than it was for you. It's a lot like the block-stacking game, Jenga, with added craziness for good measure.
Boom Blox features over 300 challenges (levels), so the chances of you getting bored with repetition is just about impossible. In addition to the plethora of blocks to throw about, you can even create your own levels for even more replay value. Buy this game and throw a Wii party, it'll be worth every cent.
Rated E for Everyone

This Hoe Bag is sleeping in my bed on new years eve.
โดย Garrett Giuffre WHAT! 31 ธันวาคม 2008
A physical bag that a hoe will carry with them most of the time. The bag usually contains extra clothing, lube, condoms, tampons, pregnancy test...and other such items that allow her to sleep from place to place with guy to guy. Be aware that one might call this an "emergency bag", that would be bull shit.
Tonya carried a hoe bag the whole time I knew her. Fuckin hoe.

Pint-Sized Performer
Very few of the English Ford Thames panels were exported in the '40s and '50s, which makes this one pretty rare. Not too many 12.60 cars are capable of hoisting the hoops 3 feet in the air like Canadian Spanky Goodin's '49 model, either, which makes it even more special. But most of all, we're willing to bet money that nobody but Spanky bought a Thames at age 14 and is still finessing it 40-plus years later. The car he learned to drive in is the same one he finished Drag Week™ with, going quick enough to get into the field of Daily Drivers on the last day before breaking. We dug the Halibrand Champ quick-change rearend and electric rear doors, and the 448hp 383 Chevy stroker wasn't too shabby, either.
No Slicks Needed
When was the last time you watched any car go 10.69 on BFGoodrich Radial T/As? Not drag radials, radial-radials!
Sometimes the struggle between man and machine is to handcraft the unexpected, and sometimes the metal is actually fiberglass. We didn't expect much from Bobby Russo's little red '64 Corvette when it pulled up to the line in Ohio, and when it quietly rolled away from the Tree, we actually turned our heads back to the burnout box to see what was coming up next. The track announcer let us know we'd underestimated the car, and we had to find out what was up with this Vette. The answer was a bone-stock LS1 from a '99 Firebird augmented by a nonintercooled 67mm turbo Bobby swapped in four years ago. A 200-R4 transfers the power to the factory IRS with 3.36:1 gears and, get this, 235/70R15 tires mounted on Ansen Sprints. Bobby ran midpack in Small-Block Power-Adder all week long, and no one left Drag Week™ without talking about his sleeper.
Used Car = Australian for Expensive Vacation
Sometimes the best fights are with the unknown. Greg Borel and his buddies flew to the States, bought this 14-second '71 Chevelle from a friend 10 days before Drag Week™, and then flogged it until the cast-iron 355 puked its guts onto O'Reilly Raceway Park's dragstrip. Like, bad. But the guys would not be beaten. They called the local O'Reilly auto parts store and had it deliver a fresh long-block to the track. So, $1,800 and a few hours later, the crew had the car running again and soldiered on to Milan, Michigan.
Bang-Shift Z/28
Lucas, Texas' Walt Reynolds has mercilessly speed-shifted this O.G. '68 Z/28 Camaro since he bought it brand-new. It still wears the original paint, interior, and suspension, but that's not the cool part: Walt raced this thing in Stock Eliminator in the '70s, and at HOT ROD's request, this multitime Drag Weeker was dressed in its original lettering for 2010. But there's more: The bottom end of the 302 is bone stock except for a set of Manley rods, which makes most collectors wince every time he bangs the T56 from First to Second gear at the dragstrip.
Walt went 12.37 on Day 1 and hoisted his best wheelstand ever, but then clutch problems slowed him down at Indy. A new clutch was installed in Michigan, and he went the distance, punishing his left leg in small-town traffic along the way-but then he shattered the 12-bolt at National Trail. Adding to the punishment was that he was just one spot away from qualifying for the 32-car Daily Driver showdown on the last day, and another car fell out at the last second, so he could have been in, but not with a ring gear in pieces.
Guardrail: 1, Mustang: 0
Mike Wilde has zero luck. First, a nonstock chassis mod bumped him out of the Small-Block Power-Adder class, where his 6.0L LS-powered Mustang had a shot at winning, and into Modified Power-Adder, where it was more than a second off the pace. The Omaha native took the news like a champ, though.
Later, he was caught in a rainstorm and his week went from bad to worse as his car swapped ends on the slick highway and met the guardrail. The body damage was light (see the pic with the engine), but the rear wheels both ended up bent. To top it off, an officer of the law gave him a $130 ticket for "failing to control his vehicle." Mike was beaten but not out. He bought a cheapie set of steel wheels and radial tires and finished the drive, racing with us all the way back to Ohio.
