In a Sept. 12 story about an Ernest Hemingway auction, The Associated Press reported that the sale will include a previously unknown printing of "Men Without Women" from 1937. It should have noted that the short story collection was first published in 1927, 10 years before the edition being auctioned.

Tycho:  It wasn't until the strip was completed that I realized we had written two comic strips at the same time.  Gabriel thought this comic was literal, and I thought it was about miscommunication. At least, I hoped it was. This is a fantasy to which I still cling.

Tycho: It's available almost everywhere, actually, but we have it on our own store now if you do not already posess it. I've seen a few out there in The Retail Book Fortresses, so should you desire a copy of Epic Legends Of The Magic Sword Kings, the process will be very straightforward. I think it turned out really well, but I wrote all of it, and I get paid when you buy it. So I might not be the person to ask.  Trivia: The third book is called The Warsun Prophecies, which we already announced. The fourth book is called "Birds Are Weird."(CW)TB

Gabe: Just a reminder that the last day to purchase tickets for the Child"s Play charity dinner and auction is Thursday. New items for the auction are coming in every day. I wanted to let you all know that we"ll have items in all different price ranges. I know last year we talked about items going for ten and twenty thousand dollars. Trust me when I tell you that you can come with significantly less than that and walk out with something cool. Even if you don"t want to bid on anything it"s a really fun event to watch. Either way, Thursday is the last day to get your tickets.

Question: Whatâs the connection between an abandoned bathing suit and three cows? Answer: Nicole Kidman. The story goes this way: a bathing suit left by Ms. Kidman at a pool in Sweden is to be auctioned on Saturday to raise money to buy cows for poor families in India, Agence France-Presse reported. The suit, now owned by Zlatko Nedanovski and on display in a second-hand store in Eslov, a town in southern Sweden, will go to the highest bidder when the sale finishes on Saturday. Mr. Nedanovski, 32, bought the swimsuit for $778 after the staff at the pool turned it over to a local radio station. Ms. Kidman, an avid swimmer, forgot the suit at a pool she had reserved for her use in the town of Vanersborg in 2002 while in Sweden to film Lars von Trierâs âDogville.â Mr. Nedanovski said he hoped to raise $1,400 to buy five cows through the Swedish aid organization Erikshjaelpen. âToday,â he said, referring to an early bid, âwe have enough for three cows.â.

Tycho:  I was in a guild with the guy who started FigurePrints, and when he extended coupons to the old crew I snapped them up and gave them as Christmas presents.  None of my characters ever reached the highest echelons of Azerothian Fashion, so it seemed like they were better invested in Gabriel and Keek, who poured night after night into Battlegrounds and Active Volcanoes fighting dragons and whatnot. The coupons I have described are difficult to secure, only available in random drawings at random intervals, or if by some twist of fate you happen to have been guildmates with a cunning entrepreneur.  It's really a way to ennoble the lost years you plowed into that game.  It's the sort of thing you'd think a person would appreciate.

With the recent acquisition Sun has made (you heard about that, right?), there's tons of resources in the open source community that are talking about it, lots of them are more PHP-specific. Cal Evans has put together a list of some of the PHP bloggers/community memembers that have posted some of their thoughts on the purchase.   With all of the buzz floating around yesterday on this topic, I decided to let some of the dust settle before posting. From everything I've seen, the PHP community is largely positive about the news. [...] As I said, the community at large seems to be pleased with this news. Here are the links I've collected so far.   Names in the list include Andi Gutmans, Lukas Smith and Jaremy Zawodny. There's also a list of some comments from the "pundits" as to what this purchase could mean for the web as a whole.
