James Gandolfini Dead at 51
This is a hard one for me. I knew Jim
Gandolfini. He worked for me as a bouncer at the RUsty Screw Tavern in
Rutgers University in the early 80s. I was there from 1976-1987. He
always said he wanted to be an actor. We all called him "Buck". I
never knew why. At least he got to realize his dream.

11. Do not download music, movies or software from illegal sources. It's a sure fire way to pick up viruses and spyware. Stick to legal sources such as iTunes or Amazon.

Jean Stapleton Dies at 90

Stapleton, who was 90, passed away of natural causes.
Having already established a career during the 1950s and early '60s for playing nosy neighbor roles in such Broadway smashes as Damn Yankees, Funny Girl and Bells Are Ringing, in which she played the owner of the titular answering service, Stapleton entered the TV pantheon with her high-pitched comic voice (which was a gross exaggeration of her own), perfect timing (especially when Edith would be slow to catch on to something) and unrelenting love for her husband Archie Bunker (even while overlooking his bigotry, which she never shared).

Security Tip #8
8. Shop online from reputable companies only. It's safe to use your credit card to pay for purchases online at any store as long as when you check out, you see a little gold lock in the lower right corner of your browser. This means that the transaction is secure. If you don't see this lock -- DO NOT CONTINUE WITH THE PURCHASE! The lock is not just a picture. Click on it to see details of the site's security. This is important because some fraudulent web sites will imitate the lock icon of your browser. It's also a good idea to use the same credit card for all of your online shopping. If there is ever a problem, all you have to do is cancel that one card.
