"Mrs. Harry Bobbitt of Wichita, Kan., and her two children, Timmy, 10, and Cheryl, 6, are shown looking at the shattered window of their television in this 1954 photo. The Bobbitts could give no explanation for the mishap, which is a new twist to the story of mysterious windshield incidents across the country. The July 1954 edition of Popular Science addressed the shattering windshields phenomena: "In small towns and large cities alike, the pox followed a typical pattern: it would hit the town overnight, rage unchecked for four or five days, and then sweep elsewhere. The classic symptoms would be tiny pockmarks, ranging in size from a period to a dime, on car windshields. Occasionally, whole panels of auto glass would craze all over." Some people accused juvenile delinquents with BB guns. According to the magazine, "More imaginative heads put it to radioactivity, vibrations from supersonic planes, unfriendly acts by flying saucer personnel, and tiny glass-eating sea animals blasted up... more... - RAPatton from Bookmarklet

“To reiterate, Demi is a beautiful woman who needs no help from retouching. This was never about her, nor about retouching - I have no problem with either. Further, I feel bad that Demi is on defense - she should not have to defend other people's mistakes; W Magazine should be addressing this rather than her. Having said that, she did raise the stakes considerably yesterday by posting what she claims is the original unretouched shot, along with the accusation that ‘these people’ (presumably Xeni and me) are ‘bullshitting.’” - Anthony Citrano from Bookmarklet

Comic books have long been the source of our imaginations and many games, movies and other forms of entertainment have been inspired by the wonderful characters found in comic books. DC Comics and Marvel comics are by far the most famous comics for many decades and most of the characters found in comic series have turned into cultural symbols. Of all these characters the ones that are listed below are international cultural symbols and they know no boundaries for such is their popularity. With Christmas fast approaching, why not have a Christmas party that is inspired by these comic characters? I am sure you would love to have a Christmas tree whose decoration has been inspired by characters from all those comic books that we read as kids. It would be a great tribute to not just those comics and characters from those comics, but a great tribute to our own childhoods and those memories which we still cherish. With that in mind, I am sure you would like to take a look at all these cool... more... - Sasha Kovaliov(.com) from Bookmarklet

"Courtney Love has lost legal control of her daughter with late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. A Los Angeles Superior Court judge has awarded temporary guardianship of 17-year-old Frances Bean Cobain to Wendy O'Connor, her paternal grandmother, and Kimberly Dawn Cobain, her aunt. No reason was given for the decision. The judge's decision comes ahead of the release of Love's latest album, Nobody's Daughter, which is expected early next year. The ruling was filed on Friday but the court papers in the case only gained attention on Monday. A representative for Love, 45, declined immediate comment." - RAPatton from Bookmarklet

For the last 10 years, I've cobbled together a fictional book about each boy using pictures from that year as a gift; this is 2009 for Alex. It has pictures of FFers in it and a typo for those keeping score at home - RAPatton

"It used to be that computer viruses attacked only your hard drive. Now they attack your dignity. Malicious programs are rampaging through Web sites like Facebook and Twitter, spreading themselves by taking over people’s accounts and sending out messages to all of their friends and followers. The result is that people are inadvertently telling their co-workers and loved ones how to raise their I.Q.’s or make money instantly, or urging them to watch an awesome new video in which they star. “I wonder what people are thinking of me right now?” said Matt Marquess, an employee at a public relations firm in San Francisco whose Twitter account was recently hijacked, showering his followers with messages that appeared to offer a $500 gift card to Victoria’s Secret. Mr. Marquess was clueless about the offers until a professional acquaintance asked him about them via e-mail. Confused, he logged in to his account and noticed he had been promoting lingerie for five days. “No one had said anything... more... - RAPatton from Bookmarklet

"LUNCH with a colleague from work should be a time to unwind - the most taxing task being to decide what to eat, drink and choose for dessert. For Rick Mabry and Paul Deiermann it has never been that simple. They can't think about sharing a pizza, for example, without falling headlong into the mathematics of how to slice it up. "We went to lunch together at least once a week," says Mabry, recalling the early 1990s when they were both at Louisiana State University, Shreveport. "One of us would bring a notebook, and we'd draw pictures while our food was getting cold." The problem that bothered them was this. Suppose the harried waiter cuts the pizza off-centre, but with all the edge-to-edge cuts crossing at a single point, and with the same angle between adjacent cuts. The off-centre cuts mean the slices will not all be the same size, so if two people take turns to take neighbouring slices, will they get equal shares by the time they have gone right round the pizza - and if not, who... more... - RAPatton

"The first proposes that if you cut a pizza through the chosen point with an even number of cuts more than 2, the pizza will be divided evenly between two diners who each take alternate slices. This side of the problem was first explored in 1967 by one L. J. Upton in Mathematics Magazine (vol 40, p 163). Upton didn't bother with two cuts: he asked readers to prove that in the case of... more... - RAPatton

In an obvious attempt to appeal to a younger, hipper, more fashion-forward demographic, Lucasfilm has collaborated with New Era to release a series of Star Wars-inspired 59Fifty baseball caps. The geekdom includes 20 variations–everything from the classic Star Wars logo to Yoda to the ridiculous Chewbacca version. They went on sale yesterday, and range in price from $80.00-$100.00. Head over to New Era Japan to pick one up, and to ensure you’ll never get laid again. Unless you do, in which case you’ve found your soul mate. - Derrick

*fabulous* although, i'd probably only give the time of day to guys wearing the logo or han frozen caps. the others are too over the top for me. - Katie

I wish Google would put some "this entry is worthless" logic into its real-time search instead of showing everything, including irrelevant and information-less entries. - Mark Trapp

I think reputation may be a good filter, but honesty, there's not a lot of information in most realtime messages outside of links. Resurrect USENET + real time search would be far more valuable. To this day, I still find valuable information in USENET. USENET was a global archive of what the public was talking about, the only difference (besides spam) was a) people wrote longer, more... more... - Ray Cromwell

"That major publishing event we mentioned earlier today? Well, here it is. Original stories featuring Batman and Superman in graphic novel form from the biggest creators out there. But these aren’t one-offs. We’re talking ongoing series of OGNs in a new continuity, on a new Earth. Sound appealing? Starting next year, DC Comics will unveil SUPERMAN: EARTH ONE and BATMAN: EARTH ONE, two graphic novels spotlighting the most powerful heroes of the DC Universe, with their first years and earliest moments retold in a standalone, original graphic novel format, on a new earth with an all-new continuity.

"Desperate parents try alternative therapies that aren't based in science and may hurt kids, an investigation finds. James Coman's son has an unusual skill. The 7-year-old, his father says, can swallow six pills at once. Diagnosed with autism as a toddler, he had been placed on an intense regimen of supplements and medications aimed at treating the disorder. He was injected with vitamin B12 and received intravenous infusions of a drug used to leach mercury and other metals from the body. He took megadoses of vitamin C, a hormone and a drug that suppresses testosterone. This complex regimen -- documented in court records as part of a bitter custody battle over the Chicago boy between Coman, who opposes the therapies, and his wife -- may sound unusual, but it isn't. Thousands of U.S. children undergo these therapies and more at the urging of physicians who say they can successfully treat, or "recover," children with autism, a disorder most doctors and scientists say they cannot yet explain or cure." - RAPatton from Bookmarklet

"One in 100 U.S. children is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder by age 8, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Though behavioral therapies can help, there are no cures for the disorder, which is characterized by communication problems, difficulties interacting socially and rigid, repetitive behavior." - RAPatton
