From the brilliantly demented minds behind The Eric Andre
Show and Bad Trip, an insane illustrated compendium
about the art of pranking. Eric André is a master of the art of
pranking—“an Andy Kaufman for the Four Loko generation,”
as Spin magazine once hailed him. For over a decade, he
and longtime collaborator Dan Curry have dreamed up and performed a
cornucopia of outrageous, often illegal, and always death-defying
hijinks for the Adult Swim series The Eric Andre Show, as
well as in the hit movie Bad Trip. Now, in their very first
book, Eric and Dan reveal the secret fuel behind their surrealistic
prank machine. Get ready to gorge your thirsty peepers on epic
stories of shame, redemption, and glory behind pranks so dumb
they’re brilliant…and beyond the realm of criticism. But wait,
there’s more! This pranktastic potpourri includes: -Tips for
prankers of any skill level, from the importance of a “safe
word” to why you should always keep the camera rolling, even
after the prank is over. -All new pranks to try at home such as
“Jell-O Surprise,” “Benadryl Steaks,” “Amateur
Graverobber” and “The Jim Morrison.” -Wild behind-the-scenes
stories about the most classic pranks from The Eric Andre
Show and Bad Trip. -Learn about the dark existential
dread behind everyone’s favorite mac-and-cheese-spurting DJ,
Kraft Punk. -Discover how Eric avoided getting stabbed when a
penis-in-a-finger-trap prank went horribly wrong. -Exclusive
never-before-filmed pranks deemed too hot for TV. -Inspirational
quotes from philosophers so obscure that they might not even exist.
Artfully designed, loaded with funny photos, and a gracious
foreblurb by Jack Black, Dumb Ideas is an essential
manual for getting a laugh out of friends, family, and complete
strangers—and staying out of jail while doing it.

In 2005, the twelfth edition of the conference Discrete Geometry
for Computer Imagery was held in Poitiers, France, April 13 15,
2005. The conference was organized by the laboratory SIC ( Signal,
Image, Communications ) of the University of Poitiers, Centre
National de la Recherche Scienti?que and the Technical Committee 18
of the International Association for Pattern Recog- tion. DGCI 2005
was sponsored by the Faculty of Science, the University of
Poitiers, the Conseil G en eral de la Vienne and the Region of
Poitou-Charentes. The aim of the conference was to present recent
advances in both theoretical aspects and applications in discrete
geometry. This year s conference was organized in combination with
the 5th Workshop B on Graph- ased Representations in Pattern
Recognition, April 11 13, 2005 also
organizedinPoitiers.TheworkshopGbRaimsatusinggraph-basedstructuresin
image analysis. There is a strong connection between the community
interested in the GbR workshop and the discrete geometry community.
For this reason, for the?rsttime,
boththeworkshopandtheDGCIconferencewereorganizedin the same place,
with a common session of four papers, two submitted to GbR and two
to DGCI. The DGCI conference attracted again for this edition many
excellent papers, with 53 submitted papers from 21 countries. After
careful reviewing by two and
sometimesthreereviewers,36paperswereaccepted,
fromwhich22wereselected for oral presentation and 14 as posters.
These contributions were regrouped into topics: applications,
discrete topology, discrete hierarchical geometry, discrete
tomography, object properties, recognition, and reconstruction,
uncertain ge- etry, and visualization."
Devil's Lake State Park in Wisconsin is the most popular
rock-climbing area in the Midwest. It features spectacular cliffs
and other rock formations where the Ice Age glacier's terminal
moraine meets an ancient landscape of rock.This third edition of
the popular ""Climber's Guide to Devil's Lake"" has been thoroughly
updated for twenty-first-century climbers and hikers and includes
information for use with GPS receivers. It provides information for
climbers of all abilities and preferences, offering precise
directions to help them navigate and climb within the park.The
features include: an updated introduction by George J. Pokorny and
new photographs by Eric Andre; a summary of the geologic and
natural history of the Baraboo hills by Patricia K. Armstrong;
locations and updated descriptions of nearly 1,800 climbs; landmark
photographs from most major climbing areas; GPS waypoints, map
coordinates, altimeter readings, and approach information; detailed
diagrams locating climbing routes at most major climbing areas;
and, 6 new diagrams, 5 new climbing areas, and 120 new routes.
