Here you go... (Sorry, can't help with the DDP placing though).

The source is wrong on two counts, according to everything else I can find he was 76. And he was not the last as Frank Mazzola and Jack Grinnage are still living, as are Chuck Hicks, Louise Lane and Jimmy Baird who all had minor roles in the film. Clearly the people at Variety haven't been doing their homework! They may be wrong about the 'last surviving cast member' bit, but born June 29 1934, died June 27 2010 (or even June 28) does make him 75, not 76. If you disagree please provide links to back up your assertions.

Corey Allen. The last surviving cast member of Rebel Without a Cause, and also emmy award-winning director of Hill Street Blues, aged 75.

I would, like, guess its this chap, like , and a well qualified chap he is too. You may, like, wish to take issue with the last entry on the page: like.

Dramatist Alan Plater, aged 75.

I'd like there to be a ban on mobiles at my work. Damn these illimited SMS bundles. I was helping out one of the students who needs a kick up the arse as far as productivity is concerned. He was texting merrily away without a second thought. I asked him to stop more than once before he focused on the work. Even then one of our group had phoned him on several occasions; we were in another building, so he was castrated from our other workshy compatriots. 26 and he can't work autonomously or think for himself or indeed respect us by listening to the warnings we give him that the boss isn't impressed. I knew this would turn into a rant. Can't we just ban unlimited SMS bundles, whether used at work or elsewhere? Why is it that whenever I receive a text message and reply to it, the originator wants to have a conversation via SMS? Why not bloody phone me if you want a conversation! My colleague who sits behind me has unlimited texts and has downloaded an app on his Android that allows upto 100 messages to be be sent concurrently to one number. When I received "Don't you find all this repetition annoying?" for the 30th time in 1 minute I nearly hit him. I admire your restraint.

Does 1-0 qualify as a solid Dutch win? I suppose a win is a win. A win is indeed a win, and I'm delighted with the result. The match was disappointing, though. The Japanese chanches to equalise the score were scary, considering that the Dutch strikers aren't exactly productive. I should've put Sneijder in my fantasy football team. I'll swap him for Van Persie as soon as I can. regards, Hein I did have Schneider in my team and was celebrating my first goal of the campaign only to find out I'd swapped him out for Mascherano. Damn rotation policy!

An abbreviation is a shortened form of a word (Dr. for Doctor or Prof. for Professor). An acronym is an abbreviation that uses the first letters of a series of words (SCUBA for Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus). Breakfast is the meal one eats in the morning, usually after waking up from sleep (breaking one's "fast"). All-Day breakfast is a term that has come to indicate that an establishment serves breakfast style foods (like bacon and eggs or pancakes) anytime during the day as opposed to other establishments that only serve those foods in the morning. I don't like "prebooked" or "preordered" either. I really don't like "pre-owned" or "pre-enjoyed" when a car dealership means "used". An acronym is actually a word formed from the first letters of the series of words; thus SCUBA is, as you say, an acronym. RSPCA on the other hand is not. It's an abbreviation. 'All-day breakfast' sounds as though it ought to be a breakfast so big it takes all day to eat.

I dislike, detest even, the use of the word 'acronym' when describing an abbreviation, and on the same lines as 'preordered' and 'prebooked', what's the difference between 'breakfast' and 'all-day breakfast'?

Is anyone else having their enjoyment of the World Cup ruined by that horrible droning? Not the vuvuzela, Mick McCarthy on the BBC.

My Predictions... S Africa 1 Uruguay 1 Honduras 0 Chile 1 Spain 2 Switzerland 1 (I'm not doing that well either, I predicted Portugal 2 Ivory Coast 1)

I always thought it was the proliferation of 'Irish' Bars.

Doubt it, as he's not even in the squad... He probably would have made a better fist of that Dempsey shot than Robert Green... Leighton Rees would probably have done better...

My predictions for later on... Argentina 2 Nigeria 0 England 1 USA 0 (provided Leighton Baines isn't on the goal-line Rob Green doesn't let in anything my half-blind arthritic granny could keep out).

Bewitched. Larry Hagman wasn't in it. Hari-Kiri or self-immolation?

As good a thread as any... Morbidly obese Poker player Paul 'Smalls' Kitsos folded, appropriately enough, on a flight to the 2010 World Series of Poker main event. He was reputedly 350lbs (25 stone in English money) and it took 4 police officers to remove him from his aircraft seat.

Plays for Plymouth Argyle apparently! Daily Mail story Plymouth Argyle.. wow! (who they?) [annoying-Paul-Whitehouse-style-West-Countryish-accent] Green Army [/annoying-Paul-Whitehouse-style-West-Countryish-accent]

"Barry Chuckle isn't dead"

You are correct. I did that before dashing off to work.

Ocean (weather permitting) Terry Wogan or Chris Evans?

It'll be a bugger getting a taxi home tonight though...

ultraboeotian; easier to type. Cabaret or Chicago?

Shame on You (in fact, almost anything by anyone over anything by U2) Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain or Spaghetti Western Orchestra?
