      <title>In Memoriam - Shel Dorf</title>
      <description>Shel Dorf's love of comic books and their creators had no equal. 
      It was his appreciation of this art form and his keen foresight that 
      helped to create what is Comic-Con. 
      It is with a heavy heart that we -- the Board of Directors, Committee, Staff 
      and Volunteers of Comic-Con -- mourn the passing or our dear friend Shel. Follow the link to 
      read a tribute written by Shel's longtime friend R. C. Harvey (&lt;i&gt;Comics Journal&lt;/i&gt;).</description>

      <title>Attendee Preview Night Memberships are Sold Out</title>
      <description>Because of the increasing number of attendees on Preview Night each year, 
      we have decided to limit attendance for Preview Night in 2010. It is impossible to 
      accommodate every person who registers for a four-day badge on Preview Night, 
      so we made available four-day memberships with and without the Preview Night option. 
      While no more Preview Night badges are currently available, regular four-day memberships 
      are still available.</description>
