| Indy – The Tease Begins
This May sees the release of Indy IV or, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull to give it its full, hoarding-filling name. And you thought Quantum of Solace was a mouthful? With the whip-cracking adventurer making his way back to the big screen, the revealing of the first snippets was only a matter of time... And it was 2pm yesterday to be precise. After a quick premiere on American breakfast TV, the trailer went live on the internet. Things start with a quick recap on Indy's previous adventures before the (much older) Jones comes into view. With the sun behind him, that hat goes on, that familiar silhouette is cast... and then THAT music kicks in. Brilliant. After that it gets frantic. The whip is clearly in evidence, Shia LaBeouf looks like he's going to be busy as, we assume, a young Indy protoge, and Cate Blanchett looks suitably icy as the villainess.
Customized Online Support Services From SupportSpace Soothes Post ...
The tech experts at SupportSpace, an online service dedicated to providing a new standard of tech support, refer to the month of January 2008 as the technology hangover days. A couple of aspirin and a good night's sleep took care of the eggnog, but what about all those new gadgets you now have to deal with? Quick start guides and manuals are usually the first place consumers turn to when they can't find the on/off button or figure out how to install the batteries. After installing the measly memory card that comes with the camera and using up the few sheets of glossy paper that came with the printer, many people will be online visiting manufacturers' Web sites or user forums researching the 'how-to' sections for hours on end. So what is the best cure for the nasty post-holiday technology hangover? With tech support from SupportSpace, consumers can directly access the Web's most robust community of independent, certified tech experts to get their holiday tech toys configured and up and running.

Williams ahead of his time
The Times-Herald will feature an inductee each day leading up to the March 8 Vallejo Sports Hall of Fame banquet. D.L. Hurd could talk about Richie Williams for a week. Williams, the 5-foot-9, 133-pound blur, was ambidextrous, the guy nobody wanted to play a game of H-O-R-S-E with, stepped up his game against the best competition, was the consummate teammate and, best of all, a great person. These are just a few things Hurd lists about the very close friend he still speaks with on a once-a-week basis. Williams - a Vallejo High and Vallejo Junior College star in the 1950s, and later a basketball player at Gonzaga and San Francisco State - is slated for induction with the fifth class of the Vallejo Sports Hall of Fame on March 8. "I just can't say enough about him," said Hurd, a former football player with the Baltimore Colts and a VSHOF member.
V. Guarisco: In Honor Of Anthony And Mary Guarisco
Having said that, I will start this off with a few things both of them would appreciate -- just a few little thoughtful things that meant so much to them and us in the family. Does anyone remember the following quote? 'I'll get you my pretty! And...your little dog too!'The Wicked Witch of the East Threatening 'Dorothy' in 'The Wizard of Oz.' Yes, of course we do...I think just about everyone on the planet has seen this film classic. Well, just like everything these days -- movies, plays, music, etc. -- everything has a different meaning to each of us, as individuals. Once in a while, a Hollywood film is not only entertaining, but it captures our domestic moral quest in surreal human form. For me, 'The Wizard of Oz' is just that, a phenomenal measure of good over evil, a valuable imperative for us to acquire the needed essentials to build character for overcoming life's many challenges.
