Jon Glaser is more a writer than a stand-up comic. As such, he’s written for a whole bunch of shows you like: Conan, The Daily Show, TV Funhouse, and Wonder Showzen. When he does perform on stage, it’s usually with a like-minded accomplice and it’s always worth it. He does a lot of his best stuff (in my opinion) with the next guy on this list, Jon Benjamin.

A tanker exploded on a freeway overpass in the Oakland/Emeryville area in CA on Sunday, April 29th around 4am. The deck collapsed and burned. It was a connecting ramp between I-80 and I-580. This is what 8,600 gallons (which weighs 80,000 pounds) of unleaded gasoline does when it burns. Reports state that the fireball started on the lower deck, and the rising heat of the 2000+ degree fire melted parts of the deck above, causing it to collapse. How did you find out about this footage? This was originally shot an a Canon hv20 at 1080p24 HD video. Here is a near-DVD quality version of the footage. http://stage6.divx.com/user/Bacon_monkey/video/1207717/Oakland-overpass-fire/collapse

Within Philips Research, the Photonic Textiles business unit will develop and commercialize products based on the concept as we have shown at the IFA. Photonic textiles open up a wide range of applications in the fields of ambient lighting, communication, and personal health care. Photonic textiles are still a young business. Even at this early stage, however, Philips envisions partnerships with interior and apparel brands that see the potential of photonic textiles to revolutionize the very concept of fabric. The demonstration at IFA is also meant to show the opportunities offered by this technology and to gain customers' and visitors' feedback on these options.

Manchester United 7-1 AS Rome! Manchester United produced one of the most stunning European performances of all time at Old Trafford to overwhelm Roma 7-1 and book a Champions League semi-final meeting with AC Milan or Bayern Munich. In 20 years as United manager, Sir Alex Ferguson has seen and done virtually everything. But never, in five previous attempts, has he presided over a Champions League knockout stage win from a first-leg defeat. And never, ever, has he seen one of his teams go out against the Italian masters of defence and score seven times. On one of those once-in-a-lifetime nights when everything goes right, the Red Devils were unbelievably four up at half-time. By the end they had a truly magnificent seven, with Michael Carrick and Cristiano Ronaldo getting two each, Alan Smith, Wayne Rooney and Patrice Evra just the one. Trailing by a single goal from the first leg, the result represented United's biggest European win since they defeated Irish minnows Waterford by the same scoreline on the first stage of their run to the 1968 Final. It was more than enough to take Ferguson's men into the last four for the first time since 2002, a win all the more remarkable because they were missing at least four automatic members of the Scot's first-choice line-up. As the hosts headed off down the tunnel at half-time, their joyous supporters cheered themselves hoarse, wondering, perhaps, whether they had just witnessed the most amazing 45 minutes of European football this ground has ever seen. After surviving a couple of early scares, United hit Roma like a whirlwind. The football they produced simply took the breath away. The usual protagonists were to the fore as expected, but so too were Darren Fletcher, who probably only got his chance because Paul Scholes was suspended, and Carrick, who scored the first, played a major role in the second and at a stroke swept away the doubters who believed at #18.6million, the summer signing from Tottenham was far too expensive. Carrick set United on their way in nerveless fashion, collecting Ronaldo's square pass, then advancing on the Roma goal. Alexander Doni may look back and feel he got his angles wrong but in offering Carrick a clear sight of his top left-hand corner, he committed goalkeeping suicide. The midfielder gleefully dispatched a curling shot to light the blue touch paper on the end of which Roma's Champions League dream was burnt to a frazzle. The home crowd were still buzzing when Carrick laid an exquisite pass to Rooney, who instantly flicked the ball onto Ryan Giggs. The Welshman's through ball deflected off Cristian Chivu to Smith. In smashing home his shot, the Yorkshireman was banishing 14 months of injury hell. He was also scoring his first United goal since November 2005 and his first in this competition since netting for Leeds against Deportivo La Coruna at the same stage six years ago. Roma were still reeling when they were hit by another thunderbolt as Ronaldo released Giggs, whose cross was flicked into the far corner by Rooney. Having scored his first goal in 18 Champions League games a week ago, the England man suddenly has a taste for it. So too, Ronaldo, who prior to this onslaught had never scored a goal in the competition but had predicted in a pre-match programme interview his time was coming. It proved to be a fairly accurate assessment of the situation too as he collected the ball from Giggs two minutes before the break, attacked Chivu with his usual directness and slammed the ball into the bottom corner. And that, for the first half at least, was that. The incredulous Roma contingent could not quite believe what had happened. Their supporters, who had not exactly enjoyed the most hospitable Manchester welcome, tried to make the best of it. But their misery was not complete. Rooney began the second period with a fizzing shot Doni flicked over. Giggs' corner was half cleared but when Rooney ferried a pass back to the Welshman, he drilled a low cross to the far post where Ronaldo was waiting to bundle it home. A sixth followed on the hour as Carrick collected Gabriel Heinze's pass and arrowed a shot into the top corner which was even better than his first effort. Daniele de Rossi pulled one back for Roma but Evra soon cancelled it out to complete the rout. Manchester United - AS Rome : 7-1 (1-2)Buts : Carrick (9eme, 60eme), Smith (17eme), Rooney (19eme), C.Ronaldo (44eme, 49eme), Evra (81eme) pour Manchester United - De Rossi (69eme) pour l'AS Rome.
