Who has not heard of The Simpsons? The wacky yellow-skinned family with the weirdest hairdos and flip attitudes that are beyond comprehension. Homer, the father and head of the family, works at a Nuclear power plant with housewife Marge as a partner, and three not so adorable young kids named Lisa, Bart and Maggie, because their looks are so deceiving especially Bart who makes life really crazy most of the time for the entire family, and sometimes, for their entire hometown called Springfield.

iACADEMY, one of the country’s leading schools in computing, business and design, recently named Dane Romley, the character layout artist and designer of The Simpsons Television show and The Simpsons Movie, as their Creative Director.

For five years, Romley created layouts for The Simpsons franchise including rough backgrounds and camera movements along with character and object animation. He also provided character designs for The Springfield Up and Tree House of Horror XVII.

NEDA Approval of SM's Common Station Expired

With the Regional Trial Court (RTC) of Pasay City set to hear SM Prime Holdings Inc.’s (SMPHI) petition to stop the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) from proceeding with its Common Station project, the transport agency will argue the case of ordinary commuters at 9:00am tomorrow.

Apart from savings of around P 800 Million to 1 Billion in constructing the Common Station at the EDSA-North Avenue end of the MRT-3 system, it will also work to the benefit of more riders since the Quezon City government is developing the North Triangle area as a new central business district.

“A crucial feature in transportation development is intermodality. Commuters should not have to walk long distances to transfer from one mode of transport to another. Our policy is to promote traveling convenience and efficiency for commuters, which is why we have chosen the end of the MRT-3 line as Common Station’s location,” said DOTC Spokesperson Michael Arthur Sagcal.
