Not my normal topic, but this is a new show on television called Heroes. Basically the idea is that ordinary people discover they have extraordiary abilities and what they do with those..
The full one hour first episode can be downloaded here and a four minute “super trailer” can be downloaded here the first episode is promising, though we are just being introduced to the main characters.
I think my favorite character was Hiro (yes, the name) who is a Japanese salary worker bored with his ordinary life and who has read too many comics.
The show has some leanings to LOST style of storyline where everyone is connected and there are a lot of hidden little gems in the show that I caught, and I am sure as the series progresses it will be more pronounced.
Not too many shows aside from anime that I go out of my way to check out, this one was worth it..
Tomorrow I am going to post about my findings with YM4R (googlemaps and geocoding) in rails and also do a walk through perhaps on some of the AJAX rails calls that I find handy.. (I am learning here as well, sometimes it helps for me to try and explain to others)

Yeah, they had to pull the first episode off the website because of their lawsuit with InSinkErator, the makers of the garbage disposal Claire stuck her hand into.
Yes, it IS stupid, but so long as you were able to find it, all is well.
