I've read that Spider-Man meets some big Queen spider that tried to turn Parker into a real life spider. And in the aftermath Parker now has organic web shooters just like in the movies.

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...t_pe/fcc_viacom Viacom, FCC Reach $3.5 Million Agreement By EMILY FREDRIX, Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON - Viacom agreed Tuesday to pay $3.5 million to end investigations by the Federal Communications Commission (news - web sites) into allegations of indecency in its radio and television programming. The fine, one of the largest in FCC (news - web sites) history, settles three pending FCC investigations, one involving shock jock Howard Stern and two involving Opie and Anthony, who lost their Viacom-owned New York radio show after it featured a couple purporting to have sex inside St. Patrick's Cathedral in Manhattan. Viacom agreed to install audio delay equipment at its radio stations that broadcast live programming, and to train its broadcasters and employees about indecency laws. "This consent decree allows us to move forward and to focus our efforts in this area by serving our viewers and listeners with techniques to safeguard live broadcasts, such as cutaways and video and audio delays," Viacom said in a statement. These are not related to the FCC's $550,000 fine levied against Viacom after the exposure of singer Janet Jackson's breast during the CBS Super Bowl halftime show in January. Viacom is contesting that fine. The agreement cancels investigations into about 50 radio and television shows, said Richard Diamond, FCC deputy secretary of communications. The shows were broadcast by Viacom-owned stations across the country, including some in Florida, Michigan, Ohio, California, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Texas, Massachusetts and New York. Viacom has five days to pay the $3.5 million fine, according to the agreement. Infinity Broadcasting, which is owned by Viacom, paid cumulative fines totaling $1.7 million in 1995 to settle FCC violations by Stern. Stern said last month he was moving from traditional broadcasting to satellite radio network Sirius starting in January 2006, after he finishes his deal with Infinity. Until their broadcast from St. Patrick's Cathedral in 2002, Greg "Opie" Hughes and Anthony Cumia were syndicated in 17 markets outside New York City, including Cleveland, Dallas, Las Vegas, New Orleans and Washington. The pair had been off the air until they joined with XM Satellite Radio in October. By leaving traditional airwaves, the shock jocks avoid any oversight by the FCC.

And that stretch in 1988 when he required everybody to mention him in their promos. And, sadly, this is not a joke. -=Mike He also demanded access to a time machine. (New Breed) And didn't New Breed say that Dusty was the President of the US somewhere around the year 2000.

http://msn.foxsports.com/story/3168960 ABC apologizes for steamy Monday Night intro Associated Press Posted: 47 minutes ago NEW YORK (AP) - ABC apologized Tuesday for a steamy intro to "Monday Night Football" after receiving complaints from viewers and the NFL. The spot featured a naked Nicollette Sheridan jumping into the arms of Terrell Owens. Before the Philadelphia-Dallas game, ABC showed Owens and Sheridan in an empty locker room in an attempt to spoof the network hit "Desperate Housewives." Sheridan, who stars in the show, was wearing only a towel and provocatively asked Owens to skip the game for her. After she dropped her towel, he agreed to be late for the contest and hugged her. Then the shot panned out to two more stars of "Desperate Housewives," Teri Hatcher and Felicity Huffman, watching the scene unfold on a television and commenting on desperate women. "We have heard from many of our viewers about last night's MNF opening segment and we agree that the placement was inappropriate," ABC said in a statement. "We apologize." The NFL called the intro "inappropriate and unsuitable for our 'Monday Night Football' audience." "While ABC may have gained attention for one of its other shows, the NFL and its fans lost," NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said. The Eagles said they appreciated ABC apologizing for the segment. "It is normal for teams to cooperate with ABC in the development of an opening for its broadcast," the team said. "After seeing the final piece, we wish it hadn't aired." ABC has broadcast "Monday Night Football" with a 5-second delay this season, a precaution after Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction at February's Super Bowl. At halftime of New England's win over Carolina in the Super Bowl, Justin Timberlake ripped off part of Jackson's brassiere, exposing her right breast to a TV audience of some 90 million. The Super Bowl was broadcast on CBS, which was subsequently fined a record $550,000 by the FCC.

http://www.eonline.com/News/Items/0,1,15357,00.html "Toy Story" Back in Play by Sarah Hall Nov 16, 2004, 3:30 PM PT Toy Story's Woody the cowboy is riding back onto the big screen, but he's about to discover there's a new sheriff in town. Disney is making good on its threats to go ahead with Toy Story 3, minus former collaborator Pixar Animation, which created the first two Toy Story films. The studios decided to go their separate ways in January after failing to come to an agreement over extending Pixar's distribution contract with the Mouse House. When Pixar walked away from Disney, it meant leaving behind the rights to the Toy Story characters and other well-loved animated characters, such as Nemo of Finding Nemo fame. Though Disney had expressed its intent to make the third installment of the Toy Story franchise without Pixar, the studio had so far held off on the project, partly out of deference to Pixar heavies Steve Jobs and John Lasseter, who did not want to lose the characters they created. However, Disney is now in the process of setting up its own digital animation studio and seems set to produce the third Toy Story under its Walt Disney Feature Animation shingle. The fact that Disney is going ahead with the project seems to lessen the chance of contract talks resuming between the Mouse House and Pixar. Meanwhile, Tom Hanks, who voiced Woody in the first two films, recently expressed reservations about coming back for a third film if Pixar wasn't involved. "I don't know," Hanks told reporters when asked if he would participate. "Quite frankly, the creative team that put together the original Toy Story was very specific and organic to the success of the process. Not that there aren't other talented people that would be involved [if another sequel was made]. That would be a bridge to cross when I come to it." It looks like the time for bridge-crossing might be at hand. Hanks' costar Tim Allen, who voiced Buzz Lightyear, said he would be game to do Toy Story 3--as long as a team as talented as Pixar helmed the project. "If they can get the magic that Pixar had, then I don't think anybody's going to complain about it," Allen said in a recent interview. However, Allen wasn't ruling out the idea that Disney and Pixar would reconcile. "I wouldn't throw out the reunification of those companies though," Allen said. "From where I sit, it's a really good marriage that had a rocky period. I don't think there's anybody that's better suited for each other." Not that Pixar is hard up for a distributor. The studio's latest release, The Incredibles, has met with, well, incredible success at the box office, smacking high-priced 'toon competitor The Polar Express to the curb. Pixar's contract with Disney formally expires next year upon the release of Lasseter's film, The Cars, but the studio can afford to play hard to get. "We are not going to make a decision until the last possible moment," Jobs told the New York Times last week.

http://msn.foxsports.com/story/3171774 FCC's Powell reacts to MNF opening Jennifer C. Kerr / Associated Press Posted: 40 minutes ago WASHINGTON - The nation's chief media regulator expressed disappointment Wednesday over the steamy locker room opening to ABC's "Monday Night Football" broadcast. "I wonder if Walt Disney would be proud," said Michael Powell, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission. ABC is owned by The Walt Disney Co. The opening, which has generated complaints to ABC and the FCC, featured actress Nicollette Sheridan of the hit show "Desperate Housewives" in the locker room, wearing only a towel and provocatively asking Owens to skip the game for her. She drops the towel and jumps into the arms of Philadelphia Eagles star Terrell Owens. Sheridan was shown only from behind and above the waist after dropping the towel. Powell questioned the judgment of those who decided to air the scene. "It would seem to me that while we get a lot of broadcasting companies complaining about indecency enforcement, they seem to be continuing to be willing to keep the issue at the forefront, keep it hot and steamy in order to get financial gains and the free advertising it provides," Powell said during an interview on CNBC. An FCC spokeswoman said the agency has received a number of complaints about the ABC broadcast, though she declined to say how many. The complaints will be reviewed and the commission will decide whether or not to open an investigation that could result in a fine against the network. The maximum indecency fine is $32,500 per incident. ABC quickly apologized for the locker room intro. And the NFL called it "inappropriate and unsuitable for our 'Monday Night Football' audience." ABC has broadcast "Monday Night Football" with a 5-second delay this season, a precaution after singer Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" at February's Super Bowl halftime show - when singer Justin Timberlake ripped off part of Jackson's outfit, exposing her right breast to a TV audience of some 90 million people. CBS is protesting a proposed FCC fine of $550,000 for the halftime show.

And with Nathan Jones record for doing things correct he'd have to give it a couple of trys before he got it right.

First thing I thought. THUNDERDOOOOOOOOME!! Hey that gives me an idea for an angle. The WWE should bring back Nathan Jones and have from dress up and act like Lord Humongous from MM 2 and Moore can play Mad Max. Jones and Moore would have a feud over who will rule the Wasteland (in this case the WWE). The blow off to the feud would be inside Thunderdome with Tina Turner as the guest ref.

Am I the only one that thinks that Moore looks like a reject from a Mad Max film?

And always jobbing to the Undertaker for 3 months didn't help them either. I don't remember them ever getting the upperhand on UT in the "feud".

Yeah I heard Val Kilmer was hard to work with to. In fact him and Joel Shumacuer (sp?) had falling outs on the set of Batman Forever which is why he didn't return to play Batman again.

Hey Zack was I right about the ep I was just talking about with Rachael in it from the 1st season of the New Class?

Same here. BTW, any New Class watchers notice that Rachael was in a 1st season ep played by the same girl. I think the story was Scott was going to take Rachael to a concert and needed the money for tickets. The only way was to sell some of Weasel comic books. (Which is the only reason I remember that ep.)

Notice how this TV belt looks just like the old WWF belt that Hogan use to have.

And isn't the pig suppose to be Porky Pig?

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...s/laci_peterson Judge Removes Juror in Scott Peterson Case By BRIAN SKOLOFF, Associated Press Writer REDWOOD CITY, Calif. - A juror in the Scott Peterson (news - web sites) murder trial who apparently did her own research on the case was removed and replaced with an alternate Tuesday, and the judge ordered the panel to start all over again with their deliberations. "We're going to send you back. Start all over again and keep in touch," Judge Alfred A. Delucchi told the panel on the fifth day of deliberations. It was not immediately clear what the woman specifically did to get kicked off the jury. But a source with close knowledge of the case told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity that she had apparently disobeyed the judge's orders to consider only the evidence presented at the trial. "You must decide all questions of fact in this case from the evidence received in this trial and not from any other resource," the judge said. The judge removed the juror after meeting behind closed doors with lawyers in the case. A day earlier, Delucchi lectured the jury about the importance of deliberating with an open mind. The juror, a retired utility company employee in her 50s or 60s, was replaced with the next alternate — a woman in her 30s who worked at a bank and has four sons. Her brother was in and out of prison for drugs, leading her mother to become a drug counselor at a methadone clinic. During the trial, the new juror seemed particularly attentive to defense presentations, and responded positively to the many jokes of defense attorney Mark Geragos. She smiled often and made a point of greeting the bailiffs each morning; she also cried openly at the sight of the autopsy photos. Whether that means anything when it comes to deliberating the case remains to be seen, but lawyers for both sides left the courtroom smiling. Also unclear is whether the other members of the six-man, six-woman jury will be able to follow the judge's orders and set aside any conclusions made so far in deliberating Peterson's fate. Peterson, 32, is charged with two counts of murder in the deaths of his wife, Laci, and the fetus she carried. Prosecutors claim Peterson killed Laci around Christmas Eve 2002, then dumped her weighted body from his boat into San Francisco Bay. The jury has two choices should they decide to convict Peterson — first- or second-degree murder. A first-degree conviction would mean jurors believe Peterson planned the killings in advance, and it could carry the death penalty or life without parole. Dean Johnson, a former prosecutor who has been closely watching the case, said the ousted juror appeared to be sympathetic to the defense, judging from her statements during jury selection and her demeanor throughout the trial. Her replacement, on the other hand, seems so emotionally involved in the case that it might be difficult for her to separate her feelings from the facts, Johnson said. "She's not going to be able to take her emotions out of the equation here." Daniel Horowitz, a defense attorney who also has watched the trial, says the replacement bodes well for the defense, calling her "a woman who will not immediately join the group. She's clearly a non-conformist." Any jurors leaning toward a conviction would likely be frustrated by her, he said. One other juror was dismissed in June after he was seen talking to Laci Peterson (news - web sites)'s brother, Brent Rocha. His replacement, a man with both a law degree and medical license, is now the jury foreman. Alternate jurors have been present throughout the trial in the jury box but have not been inside the jury room during deliberations. They have also been sequestered along with regular jurors at a hotel.

I can safety say that ever since Dave Thomas died the Wendy's ads have gone to shit.

The difference between Ahmed and Holly is that Holly is pretty much always hurting his guys on purpose.

What do you mean his family? I didn't know he was related to HBK.
