at 3-4, OWLY is fantastic. published by Top Shelf Marvel put out a line of comics called MARVEL ADVENTURES with much more "kid appropriate" comics with the big icons of the Marvel U. They can be found in the digest sized format.
Chris Eliopolous also put out a marvel comic based on Franklin Richards of Fantastic Four fame, it reads like Calvin and Hobbes with Franklin as Calvin and H.E.R.B.I.E. the robot from the 70's FF cartoon as his Hobbes. Delightful. digest format as well.
Your local comic shop should also have either Essential Collections or Marvel Masterwork tradepaperback collections of the early Marvel Comics of the 60's. Amazing Spider-man 1-20 for $20 in black and white. or 1-10 in color. might be a little early for a lot of that stuff.
Fantagraphics is publishing the complete Carl Barks library right now. vol. 2 is due out shortly.
Fantagraphics is also publishing the Complete Peanuts. 2 years per volume. They are in the early '80's right now.
Lastly, use your local library if you can. You'd be amazed at how much is being purchased by librarians right now to keep kids reading. 741.5 is your dewey decimal. Also, your kids/teen room will usually just have a whole shelf of graphic novels now a days. free looking.
Lastly part two. Let your kid be a kid as long as possible. Don't force violence at them before they're ready. Most of the above recommendations are way over the head of a 3 year old. Let alone an 8 year old.
Enjoy. my now 16 and 13 year olds have 2 bookshelves of classic Marvel and DC books. They're also huge fans of Bone and Mouseguard and other great age appropriate stuff...
Xenophobe in the arcades allowed 3 players with each player having their own section of the screen to control. Probably the first game to build on the Gauntlet model by improving the players ability to move independently from each other. A classic.
The show was a NOVA episode called "The Trillion Dollar Bet". Link here. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/stockmarket/

The ending is such a letdown and incomplete that it makes Neal Stephenson endings look thorough in comparison.
In the next couple of years (or even right now), virtual porn will look so "real" that it will be indistinguishable from actual porn images. Whats to stop people from using children and then applying a filter or two to make the image look "fake"?
You could kill Lord British is U3. There is a passage to the outside of the castle (I believe) back and to the left of the throne. The entire castle is surrounded by water and you are standing on the inside of it. Walk around the perimeter and you'll find a ship. The only thing it's good for is sailing around the outside of the castle. now, 1) park the ship close to the 'back door', 2) go back inside and kill a guard or jester, this will make LB come chase you. 3) lead him out the back, (B)oard the ship, said N so that there's at least 1 square of water between you and FIRE. Bye bye LB. Of course, he's back as soon as you leave and reenter the castle...

Ron Paul abstained from voting on the Protect America Act in 2007 which was the genesis for much of the PRISM program. Not a NO vote, abstained.

The Maltese Falcon novel is practically reproduced in the Maltese Falcon film. John Huston adapted Hammet's novel and directed.
