Meanwhile, out 122nd way, in my back yard, KGW has released the identity of that lady who tried to mess up all those Ferraris at Ron Tonkin Gran Turismo – and turns out that Ferrari Hating Girl is a comic.
Former comic, as the KGW headline says. Well it certainly quit being funny for everyone involved.
Francesca Lavezzo is a 33-year old woman who in the recent past, anyway, was involved in a San Francisco sketch comedy group called The 11th Hour. Here's the bio. Excerpted fair-use picture right. 6 feet, 160 pounds of Ferrari-hatin' funny woman, she appeared in one video that I can find, credited as "film crew".
Exclusive to this blog (and everyone else who figures out where it is and links to it, here's Francesca Lavezzo, in "The Outtakes of the Christ" (Serious content advisory: irreverent attitude toward religious icons and themes. If you are offended, easily or otherwise, by an irreverent attitude toward the Passion, DO NOT VIEW THIS CLIP!!!. I'm NOT kidding! Do NOT make me get out the blink tag!)
Did you catch her? I sure didn't. But she's in there somewhere; she's listed in the credits.
What was it that Oscar Wilde said, about the only worse thing than being talked about is being not talked about?
I love living out 122nd way!

you don't have to get permission from everyone in the photo to publish it. There is a principle called a "reasonable expectation of privacy", which essentially boils down to if you don't want to have a picture of your face taken in public, don't show your face in public. That's why they call it public. I shudder to think of all the epochal photos of people that would never have happened if the proposed UK standard was in force anywhere … I think of 
One of the most well-known and iconic logos from out of Oregon is, of course, the 
Girl Genius was an established book. We put out 14 issues as a comic book periodical. It came out on a regular basis, and as an independent comic book goes, it was doing pretty darn well: We were selling, like 9,000 copies. About a third of them we were selling retail, off of our website or at conventions, the other two-thirds we were selling through distributors like Diamond. In 2005 we just stopped printing the comics, and we took this already established property that we had been selling for money and put it online for free and said no firewall, no subscriptions, no nothing—we are giving it away.
Phil's got something on all of us aspiring web-comickers though, and it's not just an undoubted talent – it's the strength of a brand. Phil's famous for wry, clever humor, a delicious visual style, and an sense of adventure that's taken him credibly from role-playing gaming (What's New with Phil and Dixie, sometimes the only reason to pick up the late TSR's periodical Dragon Magazine), through fantasy (Asprin's Myth Adventures), satirical Pythonesque SF (Buck Godot) and to a comic that, for me, redefines steampunk (Girl Genius). When you get something with Phil Foglio on the cover, you simply know you're going to be entertained. When you combine that with the Studio Foglio's aggregate talent, Phil and Kaja's publishing knowledge and his history, you've got an unbeatable brand. It almost can't lose.
