Walmart: One thing about Walmart:? it's apparently pretty easy to hack their information, according to this CNN article.
Shuttle's last trip: ?A couple of months ago, the big news in LA involved transporting a large rock to the art museum. This fall, they'll be moving the shuttle Endeavor to its new home at the California Science Center, and that'll be a show, too.?
You didn't win that: ?Got a press release from Supv. Michael D. Antonovich supporting the Olympic Tax Elmination Act. ?Did you know that Olympic medal winners receive honorariums as well ($25K gold/ $15K silver/ $10K bronze)? ?And that Uncle Sam taxes those winnings ($9K gold, $5.3K silver, $3.5 K bronze?) ?The Olympic Tax Elimination Act, introduced by U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and sponsored by Representatives Mary Bono Mack (R-CA) and G.K. Butterfield (R-NC), would exempt U.S. Olympic medal winners from paying taxes on their medals. Seems only fair!
Bueno: ?Bulgarini Gelato's summer mostly-Italian movie night continues Saturday with "Bella Martha," : "An uptight gourmet chef learns to loosen up when she becomes the caretaker of her orphaned niece and meets an Italian chef." ?Movies are always free, and begin at dark.
