Would John Wayne have been a good choice to lead a Golden Age-era Expendables ? What's the best episode of King of the Hill ? Are direct-to-video films banned from Oscar consideration? All this and more covered this week in Ask 411 Movies!

Dix was at the Bash a few years ago. I was working security at one point near his table where he was signing autographs with his wife. When he didn't have anyone at his table he would run outside for a quick smoke and I would have to let him back in because the door locked from the inside. He was very nice. When anyone would come up to his table for an autograph he would stand up and introduce himself and his wife and shake the person's hand. I leaned over to him at one point and said, "you don't have to tell people you're Bob Dix, they know you're Bob Dix it's why they're standing in front of you." He laughed and squeezed my shoulder. One of the more irreverent elements of the King of the Hill was jazz musician Chuck Mangione (who I've seen in concert) popping up randomly through the series. On several occasions he was seen as a spokesman for Mega Lo Mart, even being involved in a store explosion with Hank, Luanne and her then boyfriend Buckley at one point. The whole Mangione storyline came to a head with the 2003 episode "Megalo Dale." The local Mega Lo Mart has a rat problem and Hank suggests exterminator Dale to take care of it. Topher Grace and Danny Masterson voice two teenagers who harass Dale and make fun of him for thinking Mangione is the cause of the problem by wearing Mangione masks. Turns out he is, as Dale finds Mangione living in the store and living off of food from the shelves. Mangione is dissatisfied with his oppressive spokesperson contract and is rebelling against the store while hiding from them. Dale refuses to ‘rat' Mangione out at the end of the episode and pins the disturbance on the kids. Ben Bocquelet was made the head of the Cartoon Network Development Studio Europe in 2007. Cartoon Network asked for pitches from all employees. Bocquelet took rejected characters he had made for commercial pitches and put them in a school setting. The main character is an adventure seeking cat as middle school student who has a crush on an antlered peanut.

California laws and guidelines for car repossession – storage fees ...

Car repossessions can be very stressful and upsetting for any car owner. A car can be repossessed by a dealership when the owner fails to make payments on the vehicle. Since the dealership still technically owns the car until the balance is paid off, it has the right to take back the property so they can sell it and try to recoup the money lost from payments not being made. Every state has its own laws and guidelines about repossession, including California.

Repossession Notice

Car companies have the legal right in California to repossess a car with no warning if a payment is even a day late. However, they are then required by law to send the owner an itemized list showing what payments are due on the car, including repossession costs, where the car is and where the owner can pay the balance. Once the repossession notice is received, you have a legal option to reinstate your sales contract by paying the balance due. This only applies to cars that were purchased, not leased. If a repossession notice is inaccurate or otherwise defective, the repossession may be void.

Repossession Restrictions

California puts strict guidelines on repo men. While driveways, open carports and parking lots are all fair game for repossession, a repo man is not permitted to enter your garage or home without your permission. Repo men also cannot use or threaten violence, make physical contact with the car owner in any way barring self-defense and cannot make any threats of arrest. Repo men are also prohibited from having police officers with them at the time of repossession unless the car company has already filed a lawsuit.

Financial Demands

California law says the car company can only demand the past-due payments and any repossession and storage fees for the return of your vehicle.

Guidelines for Examination in the European Patent Office : The Guidelines for Examination in the European Patent Office (or, for short, the EPO Guidelines) are general instructions, for the examiners working at the European Patent Office (EPO) as well as for the parties interacting with the EPO, on the practice and procedure at the EPO in the various aspects of the prosecution of European patent applications and European patents.
