La Canfora also reported that the 49-year-old Gruden has been studying the Oregon offense (presumably not Saturday's loss to Stanford) to get better acquainted with the college game. (No doubt CBS Sports enjoys causing agita in Bristol, Conn., with this kind of news.)"Jon remains committed to ESPN," an ESPN spokesperson said Sunday night when contacted by SI.com. "With a third of our Monday Night Football schedule still left to be played this season, he is focused on his analyst role and all the preparation that goes into our game each week."Reached in San Francisco on Sunday, Gruden's Monday Night Football partner, Mike Tirico, said, "Like I've done the last three years, I'm staying away from any of the speculation and conversation as we enter the silly season."So what happens if Gruden bolts at the end of the season? SI.com contacted a half-dozen ESPN staffers on Sunday and Trent Dilfer appears to be the leading in-house candidate to replace Gruden. Steve Young would also get consideration."I'd actually be surprised to hear that Steve would want the job," said an ESPN staffer who has worked with both Dilfer and Young. "I'm pretty sure Trent wants it.""I don't see any other contender in-house," said another ESPN staffer of Dilfer.Via ESPN, Dilfer was not available on Sunday night.Dilfer served (perhaps endured is the better word) as the analyst alongside Chris Berman for the Chargers-Raiders season opener, and he also worked the Monday Night Football season-opening doubleheader in 2011. He's considered a rising star by ESPN's NFL production executives. Both Dilfer and Young are cerebral broadcasters, but Dilfer is thought to be the better fit in the booth as a game analyst. If Gruden goes, Dilfer would be a smart fit. He has a bigger long-term upside than Gruden because he's already willing to be critical of coaches and players when the situation calls for such transparency.Now in his fourth year in the MNF booth, Gruden has already lasted longer in broadcasting than most expected. Before the season, Tirico told SI.com that he was waiting for all the people who had said Gruden would return to the sidelines to admit they had reported prematurely. He did not want to speculate on this go-around."I think when this started very few people thought he would be doing for this long and here we are in Year Four," Tirico told SI.com on the eve of the regular season. "Will Jon be coaching in 2013? I have no earthly idea. But given where his temperature has been the last couple of years, I think the chances are good that he will be around with us."Two months ago in an interview with SI.com, ESPN executive vice president of production John Wildhack admitted the network had no ready-made contingency plan for Gruden's departure."What I want to do is create a new era of Monday Night Football with Mike and Jon," Wildhack said, "and that Jon will enjoy this so much that he will want to put coaching in the background."Asked if that was possible, Wildhack replied: "We sure as hell will try."(SI.com examines some of the more notable sports media stories of the weekend)1. The sound you hear from Bristol, Conn., is ESPN executives rooting hard for Notre Dame. If the Irish defeat USC on Saturday night -- College GameDay has already committed to broadcasting from Los Angeles on Saturday morning -- the BCS title game on Jan. 7 in Miami (airing on ESPN) sets up for monster ratings if Alabama is the opponent. The most-viewed national championship game of the BCS era came in 2006 when Vince Young-led Texas defeated USC, which featured Matt Leinart and Reggie Bush. The game drew 35.6 million viewers on ABC and was the most-watched NCAA championship game since at least 1991, when Nielsen records began for college football. The second- and third-most-viewed games of the BCS era aired on Fox, including the 2007 title game (No. 2 Florida over No. 1 Ohio State, 28.8 million viewers) and the 2009 title game (No. 2 Florida over No. 1 Oklahoma, 26.8 million viewers). Last year's Alabama-LSU title game averaged 24.2 million viewers, down about 11 percent from the previous year.The Texas-USC numbers are likely out of reach even with a month of ESPN hype, but the popularity of Notre Dame as a television team will be a massive draw. And if the game is close late, watch out."If Notre Dame makes the BCS championship game, it will post the biggest viewership since ESPN started carrying the game," predicted Sports Business Journal reporter John Ourand. "My guess is that the game will draw 33 million viewers. Of course, this prediction is dependent on a close game. If it's a blowout, all bets are off."1a. Last week over the span of 24 hours, ESPN signed rights packages to carry the Sugar and Orange Bowls through 2026. According to Ourand, the network agreed to pay $55 million per year for the Orange Bowl (which will feature the ACC champion and an opponent from the SEC, Big Ten or Notre Dame) and $80 million per year for the Sugar Bowl.2. Turner Sports host Ernie Johnson, the ringleader of TNT's Inside the NBA studio show, isn't exactly worried about Charles Barkley's leaving broadcasting."How worried am I? Look, if you told me back when Chuck signed on with Turner that we would be having this conversation after 13 years, I'd take that right now," Johnson said. "My concern the day we hired him was when the novelty wore off, would he want to do something else? Would, say, a doubleheader after the All-Star Game that has no bearing on the standings wear on him? Believe me, after 13 years, I am not worried about it. It is what happens in business. I mean, how many people are around the same thing for 13 years?"Guys like Kenny [Smith], Charles, Shaq [O'Neal] and C-Webb [Chris Webber], there are a lot of people out there who would love to have them in some capacity, whether it's as a team executive or in broadcasting. That's something you live with. I don't worry about it for a second, but I just appreciate that we have had a wonderful run and will continue to have a wonderful run."Maybe it was a bad meal he had? It's like Kenny said the other night: 'You want to retire from a job that you work one night a week?' "2a. Last week's NBA TV Fan Night broadcast between the Lakers and Spurs averaged 739,000 total viewers, the network's third-most-viewed game telecast ever, behind this year's Lakers-Trail Blazers season opener (868,000 total viewers) and a 2011 game between the Clippers and Lakers (756,000).3. ESPN investigative reporters (and brothers) Mark Fainaru-Wada and Steve Fainaru had a huge news break last week on the relationship between professional football and brain injuries. The brothers, both of whom work for ESPN's enterprise unit, are collaborating on a book about football and brain injuries, scheduled to be published in fall 2013 by Crown Archetype, and their reporting on the topic drew the interest of PBS' acclaimed Frontline program. The show is collaborating with ESPN's Outside The Lines to produce documentary on the subject., which will air the same time the book is published. Outside the Lines will air reports before the documentary as the reporting dictates."I look at this story as a huge national public health issue," Fainaru said. "Football is just so embedded in the culture and now we are finding it could be damaging and even lethal. ... When you talk to parents of kids who play football, soccer, hockey, lacrosse or any number of sports, they really want answers. There's a lot of justifiable anxiety about what this all means. "Fainaru, who joined ESPN last March and won a Pulitzer Prize for international reporting in 2008 while working at The Washington Post, said he and his brother's reporting led to documents that the NFL's retirement board awarded disability payments to at least three former players after concluding that football caused their brain injuries. He praised ESPN for giving him the freedom to investigate stories involving its broadcast partners such as the NFL."The wall [between editorial and business] so far has been absolute and there was never any issue about this story and what impact it might have on the NFL," Fainaru said. "It was no different than a lot of the work I did at The Washington Post. We uncovered something, we thought it was newsworthy and we then proceeded to do the reporting."4. Can Jim Rome succeed where others (Joe Buck) have failed? We'll soon see. Jim Rome on Showtime debuts Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET/PT. The host told USA Today on Sunday that "it's premium cable, as opposed to basic cable, so I can push the envelope and do some things I haven't been able to do in the past."The show is part of CBS' using of Rome across multiple platforms. He already has a half-hour daily show on the CBS Sports Network, and his radio show will debut on CBS Radio in January 2013. The CBS Sports Network hasn't gained much ratings traction, but as I've said in the past, I've long appreciated Rome's giving run to sports writers we don't often see on television (in other words, not Mike Lupica or Bob Ryan). Rome's initial Showtime guests include the Lakers' Kobe Bryant, the Packers' Aaron Rodgers, actor Matthew Perry and Mandalay Entertainment CEO Peter Guber.5. ESPN NFL analyst Ron Jaworski is a longtime favorite of this column because he backs up his opinions -- provocative or otherwise -- with research and film work."I don't know who the starting quarterback should be, but I know who it shouldn't be: It shouldn't be Mark Sanchez," Jaworski said of the Jets on Sunday NFL Countdown. "He has thrown 1,708 balls in his career, and you just don't see the growth that you need to see from a quarterback that has played that much."Now, a real-life example, critical situations of the game: Go back to the Seattle game last week. A 7-7 tie. They are going in to score and [offensive coordinator] Tony Sparano designs and calls a perfect play. [Wide receiver] Stephen Hill opens up against Cover Two, the linebacker jumps up, wide open under the goal post, and Mark doesn't see it. He ends up throwing an interception. Here's a critical situation, perfectly designed by the coach, and he doesn't execute. That's the issue right now. I don't think it should be permanent. I think it is, 'Go to the sidelines, take a deep breath, watch someone else play.' "That's terrific stuff.5a. Fox NFL play-by-play announcer Chris Myers will want this one back: He initially had the Panthers defeating the Bucs on Sunday.6. ESPN is in the early stages of its ombudsman search after the Poynter Institute's mixed 18-month tenure. Don't expect ESPN to name a new public editor soon, and it won't be someone who has covered the company as a journalist."One of the basic principles we'll follow is to find someone with no previous body of work covering our company," an ESPN spokesperson said. "We're seeking totally fresh eyes."Hopefully, those fresh eyes come with an increased metabolism. If ESPN is serious about an ombudsman's impact -- and I applaud it for having one, unlike many places, including SI -- it needs to bring in someone committed to a daily evaluation of the myriad journalistic issues facing the company. ESPN's reporting in the Bernie Fine case should be high on the list for examination for the next ombudsman.6a.New York Times sports business reporter Richard Sandomir is partnering with Jim Miller, the author of the best-selling book These Guys Have All The Fun: Inside the World of ESPN, for an upcoming examination of the network in the New York Times. The two reporters have interviewed many of the top players at ESPN. Sandomir and Miller both declined comment on the specifics of the article, but you don't have to be a swami to guess that ESPN's news-gathering reputation will be heavily examined.6b. Here are two terrific pieces of sports journalism: ESPN The Magazine's Kevin Van Valkenburg on Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith, and ESPN.com's Wright Thompson on LSU coach Les Miles.6c. Of course, ESPN would not be ESPN without some Baylessian nonsense, and Deadspin's examination of journalism's role at ESPN ("How ESPN Ditched Journalism And Followed Skip Bayless To The Bottom: A Tim Tebow Story") had nearly 230,000 page views as of this writing. Author John Koblin, who started with Deadspin in April after working at the New York Observer and WWD, said the only Deadspin piece he's written that has drawn more page views was his expose on ESPN.com contributor Sarah Phillips. You can read Koblin's report here.7. NBC has hired motorsports voices Leigh Diffey (play-by-play), David Hobbs (analyst) and Steve Matchett (analyst) for its Formula One coverage on NBC and the NBC Sports Network. No pit reporter has been named yet. The group worked together on the cable channel SPEED and will begin with NBC in March 2013 after last month's announcement that the network had signed a four-year deal with F-1 for the exclusive U.S. media rights. Diffey, a longtime voice in F1, will also call IndyCar races on NBC Sports Network after the retirement of Bob Jenkins earlier this year.7a. Bravo to ESPN baseball analyst John Kruk, who gave Major League Baseball a Twitter smackdown over Toronto's signing of Melky Cabrera, who was suspended 50 games last season after a failed drug test. "Sadly with MLB and the union is sometimes they just hope problems go away," Kruk tweeted. "This one didn't and we are all at fault."8. NBC says John Madden taped the open for its Thanksgiving-night game between the Jets and Patriots. Beginning this year, the MVP of the game will be called "The Madden Thanksgiving Player of the Game."9. Stealing a page from the ESPN First Take playbook, CBS continued to ride the Phil Simms-Eli Manning narrative on Sunday as The NFL Today gave Simms time at the top of its show to re-argue with himself. (Yes, Eli Manning is not in the same category as Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Rodgers. We all get it, Phil.)Here's Simms: "Let's go with this Eli comment. Let's think about it this way. Let me clarify it for everybody out there so they can understand it. Let's say they're all elite in the NFL. My premise in the whole thought was if you listen to the whole thing, I was trying to distinguish Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers from the rest of the group. Period. That was it. Can we understand that these three guys, what they've done on the field, what they've shown this year and consistently through their whole careers, that they can get it done. They do not have down periods. Now everybody out there is going to go, 'Oh, Phil is backtracking.' That is far from the truth. I am not backtracking one bit. I'm just trying to clarify it because this word 'elite', man, it just drives everybody crazy because that's the new word how we define players in the NFL."Now for Eli Manning, it was no disrespect to him at all. I didn't mean any. I respect what he's done as a player. My gosh, to stay on the field for every game and not get hurt, that alone puts you in the Hall of Fame. He's on his way to a Hall of Fame career. I know he has the two Super Bowl MVPs, so it's no disrespect to him at all. I was defining the word elite to try to signify those three guys that they stand out in my eyes. "9a. Our thanks to CBS NFL analyst Dan Fouts for offering some sanity on Eli Manning. Said Fouts during the Jets-Rams broadcast: "If you get two Super Bowl rings, should that question even be asked? He's way in the elite status."9b. Speaking of CBS, here's some rare smack talk from a news executive (CBS News chairman Jeff Fager) to an NFL quarterback (Rodgers).9c. Former San Diego Union-Tribune sports reporter Jay Posner is not a fan of Greg Gumbel's.9d. ESPN NFL analyst Mike Ditka, who suffered a minor stroke last week, says he's feeling better. Good news.9e. Ravens receiver Jacoby Jones flirted with Sunday Night Football reporter Michele Tafoya.10. NFL Network analyst LaDainian Tomlinson, who played with the Jets last season, suggested during the week on SiriusXM NFL Radio that Jets cornerback Antonio Cromartie and linebacker Bart Scott were behind the anonymous player quotes about Tim Tebow that ran in the New York Daily News. Scott took exception to Tomlinson's comments. Here's how Tomlinson responded (or backtracked) on Sunday.10a. The CBS Sports Network and the Arena Football League announced a two-year agreement last week, making CBS the national television partner of the AFL. The network will air 19 regular-season games and two playoff games during the 2013 season.10b. FOX Soccer has added the U.S. women's national team's match against the Republic of Ireland on Dec. 1 (9 p.m. ET). The network will also cover USWNT's first match against the Republic of Ireland, on Nov. 28 (9:30 p.m. ET).10c. Keep your eye on Keith Olbermann's appearances on MLB Network's morning Hot Stove show Tuesday and Wednesday (9 a.m. ET). As the Awful Announcing blog speculated, this seems like a good match given Olbermann's passion and intelligence when it comes to baseball.

Again, excellent tutorial! Inkscape is fast becoming my new favourite image tool.
great tutorial although I will have to slow it down a bit...HA. Thanks....you make it look so easy...I have a feeling I will be working for hours but practice will be the key.
very useful!
I'll need to re-watch the Make a Button a few more times but it will mean i will be able to make rivet heads for my project
Thank You!
very nice, but some of the easy stuff was a little bit fast and so hard to follow.
I forget if I'd mentioned our Google Group to you:
Most of our authors are in the Group, we talk about new features, bugs, arrange monthly Skype conference calls etc. Do come join in,
Thanks everyone.
I do have Adobe Illustrator installed on my WinXP box but I rarely use it. The two things that I use the most in Illustrator are the Live Trace and DXF features. Other than that it's Inkscape and GIMP 99% of the time.
I hope to get some of Richard Querin's videos posted soon. He has some excellent screencasts.
Hey heathenx,
let me welcome you to ShowMeDo! I've been an author here for quite a while now (almost a year!) and I can honestly tell you: this is a really good place to host your screencasts at.
It's also a great platform to promote your screeencasts.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your 'casts here on ShowMeDo.
Good job!
Loved it! Really don't know how one could pick up so much in such a short space of time using any other medium. This type of tool is tailored-made for screencasts. There's a lot there but the voice is clear, the pacing a good compromise; I'll have to watch a few times by which time the speed will be perfect. I use Illustrator as a rule but a lot of this looks more intuitive. I'm now inclined to investigate further.
Welcome heathenx and your InkScape tutorials! I hope that we can add more of your fine tutorials into ShowMeDo.

Below are key drivers of RBS's value that present opportunities for upside or downside to the current Trefis price estimate for the Royal Bank of Scotland group:
For additional details, select a driver above or select a division from the interactive Trefis split for RBS at the top of the page.
The Royal Bank of Scotland Group is the holding company of a global banking and financial services group. The company operates in the United Kingdom, the United States, and internationally through its two principal subsidiaries, The Royal Bank of Scotland plc (the Royal Bank) and National Westminster Bank plc (NatWest).
Both the Royal Bank and NatWest are United Kingdom clearing banks. The company's business segments include: U.K. Retail, U.K. Corporate, Markets, International Banking, Ulster Bank, U.S. Retail and Commercial, Wealth and the soon to be spun-off Direct Line (Insurance) Group.
RBS' UK consumer banking business, under the RBS and NatWest brands, is a market leader in the UK. It had nearly $180 billion of mortgage, credit card and other consumer loans outstanding (on an average basis) in 2011, generating a net interest yield of nearly 4%. Additionally, the risk profile of its customers has been reasonable for the most part, as its impairments were about 0.7% of loans outstanding in 2011, lower than many competitors.
In October 2008, RBS accepted effective nationalization by the UK government. RBS had been the largest bank in the UK by assets, so when many of the bank's assets turned out be "toxic" (non-performing), the UK government took nearly 83% ownership of the bank through a capital injection as well as preferred shares which were later converted to common stock. While the government plans to wind down its position over time, its involvement means that it will likely dictate the bank's activities (and risks) to an extent.
As economic conditions eventually improve, we expect that investors' risk appetites will also increase, which should drive investment and demand for wealth management services. Long term trends, including the ongoing shift from state pension dependency to private retirement funding, aging populations in mature markets, and growing wealth in emerging economies, will also positively impact revenues and assets under management.
The British government ratified the stringent recommendations for UK-based banks laid out by the ICB late in 2011. The legislation will be enforced by 2015, with UK banks facing several difficult decisions owing to the "ring-fencing" recommendation that seeks to separate retail and investment banking operations.

Vandebilt sweeps parish meet
Published: Thursday, October 25, 2007 at 1:16 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, October 25, 2007 at 1:19 p.m.
BOURG Vandebilt Catholic were the big winners at Wednes-days Terrebonne Parish Cross Country Meet.
Vandebilt had five of the top 10 runners in the boys and girls races to take home the first-place tro-phies.
I was concerned about the boys. South Terrebonne has a very strong top-two and several others to complement them, Vandebilt coach Dave Malone said. Our guys knew that and set goals for themselves coming in and they were able to reach them. This is going to help get us ready for our district meet.
The meet, hosted by Ellender Memorial, featured five Terre-bonne Parish high schools and had 56 boys and 39 girls participating.
Vandebilts Justin Babin led the boys field with a winning time of 15 minutes, 54 seconds.
Babins teammate, Ross Mullory, finished second at 16:02. H.L. Bourgeois Guy Schexnayder rounded out the top three with a time of 16.23.
H.L. Bourgeois coach Leonard Folse said he was pleased with Schexnayders performance.
Last meet he ran a 17:50, Folse said. The rain that day may have played a factor, but I am very pleased with his and the whole teams progress.
South Terrebonnes Chase Menard (16:36) and Jake Thibodeaux (16:45) rounded out the top five. The duos effort would help the Gators take second, and H.L. Bourgeois finished third.
Terrebonnes Skyla Jackson (20:18) finished first for the girls by knocking over a minute off of here previous time recorded on the same course earlier this month. She was followed by Vandebilts Alexis Guidry (20:35).
Rounding out the top five were Ellenders Hali Yakmusa (20:39) and Vandebilts Emily Carrere (21:14) and Logan LeBlanc (21:50).
Alexis, Emily and Logan ran well for us, but we also have a solid group behind them, Malone said. They have been running well and improving each meet.
Though not having any runners appear in the top five, South Terre-bonne placed second by placing five runners in the top 12. Hannah Theriot (21.57) had the best time for the Lady Gators.
Terrebonnes girls team finished third.

When a series reaches a milestone number like 40, a little extra effort often goes into it, and that seems like the case with Chica Boom 40. Easily the most consistently enjoyable Latin line there is, this one scores a double whammy with two of the most caliente Latinas currently in the biz: Rebecca Linares and Franchezca Valentina.
Both scenes are terrific and have gut-busting intros, but the one with Linares (the opener), which pairs her with Steven St. Croix, is one of the most scorching and piss-your-pants funny bits of porn we've seen in months.
Pre-nom for Best Coupling (Linares & St. Croix), Best Solo Scene (Linares) and Best Latin Release.

Arts Some Notes on the Home
posted by May 25 at 12:18 PMon
Few things in life make me happier than watching my daughter walk up the metal steps of the school bus. It is the passage for her transition from the family to the state. As the philosopher points out in almost all of his books: the ethical substance (society) is made up of two laws—one which is divine (the family) and one which is human (the state). Put another way: one which is oikos (the house) and one which is polis (the city). The steps on the school bus lead Delphinium (my daughter) from her father or mother (family) to school (state). For her, I'm nothing more than the given, the natural, the home (in short, all that Aeschylus' trilogy, The House of Atreus, designates as bad); the polis, the fashioned, is the social space in which she gets to decide the self she wants to be (which is the self that will overcome the given). The house is about the underworld, the night; the polis is daylight and clarity. Her leaving me is leaving the dark limits of birth and death and entering the open universal, the larger community, the longer course of social history. Each step my daughter makes up and into the bus negates me. When the doors close behind her, I'm totally negated. The state is the power she has over me, the family, and nothing makes me happier than to see her little power grow.
When beautiful Cassandra steps down from the chariot and sees Agamemnon's house, she screams: "No … no … a house. [a] house full of death, kinsmen butchered … heads chopped off … a human slaughterhouse awash in blood …" To Greek eyes, the home was a dark force because of its direct connection with the life and death forces of nature. And in Late Antiquity, Christianity began its long war against the home, the site of terrible crimes: fornication, murder, incest. When it completely defeated the family in the High Middle Ages, the powers of death were transferred from the home to the church. To understand this long struggle between the church and the home is to see one of the main reasons for the continuing Christian resistance to abortion rights. It is for the church a kind re-empowering of the home, which, as the the philosopher says in almost almost all of his books, is the domain of the woman. The substance of the popular novel The Da Vinci Code is this struggle that dates all the way back to the The House of Atreus.
My father to me, while driving to my mother's grave: "In traditional Manica [or African] society, there were no big churches. Your hut was your church. The altar was in the hut. You didn't leave the hut to pray. You prayed in your hut. When Christianity arrived and settled, that's when you left the house to pray in the church."

So crazy how this little whisk makes cooking life easier. You can use it for almost anything! It lasts quite a long time. I've had mine for 3 years and it's now just rusting (although it could be due to not drying right away :p) Regardless, everybody--EVERYBODY--needs this in their kitchen! And an extra one just because!
These are so handy to have around for mixing anything into liquids. Since they're skinny they fit into narrow cups and mugs with plenty of room to spare, and they do a much better job of mixing than spoons. And as the description says, they're extremely easy to clean.

Recently, I have noticed that in the comments I write on my own blog, a backslash is added before an apostrophe and a quotation mark. This character is added after publication and cannot be edited out. Example:
\"We\'re in good company with our love of cheese. There\'s a certain fellow named Wallace who rather likes a nice bit of Gorgonzola now and then.\"
What's going on here and how do I make it stop? This does not occur when I write a post, and other people seem to have no problem writing comments. It only happens when I write a comment.

On Thursday's Parks and Recreation, Tammy 2 (Megan Mullally) returns for another round of chaos. It's as if her ears were ringing: As soon as her ex Ron (Nick Offerman) finds a stable relationship with Diane (Lucy Lawless), the "punkass book jockey" returns to ruin things. So, how will Xena Diane handle going up against one of the Tammys?
Parks and Recreation Exclusive: Megan Mullally returning as Tammy 2!
"If you're going to date Ron, you're going to have to, at some point, confront his horrifying ex-wives. Iit's a rite of passage for anyone who's interested in being Ron's girlfriend," executive producer Mike Schur tells TVGuide.com. "We get to see what kind of person Diane is and how she holds up and what the things that worry her about Ron are."
While Schur was shy to say what kind of hell Tammy 2 would put Ron and Diane through, he notes, "She has no agenda other than her normal agenda, which is to destroy Ron."
Parks and Rec Video: Ron finds love with someone not named Tammy in Lucy Lawless
On the bright side, it seems Diane will hold her own, considering Schur says there's a chance Lawless will be sticking around. "Lucy lives in New Zealand so it's hard," he says. "We can't always get her every time we want her, but it's so awesome that she keeps coming back because she's really good and it's really fun to see Ron with someone. You just look at them and you think, yeah, that makes sense. He's dating Xena, Warrior Princess. That's about right. That's what we need for him."
How do you think Tammy 2 will try to ruin Ron's relationship? Hit the comments with your thoughts!

It really is good, especially with Nova launcher, try it, you won't regret:)
Chris PirilloShared publicly -
Here's a look at Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, and just how good it really is.
20 comments
Having recently picked up a Galaxy Nexus (which has ICS), it really is a fantastic update to the platform. It's just flat out more elegant and intuitive than their previous platforms.
Im debating between the galaxy note and galaxy nexus for my new phone when I go get it on tuesday, how long it takes before the note gets that ICS update will play a huge role, but overall very good video! +Chris Pirillo
Great timing..I have been waiting to update to the ice cream..I was going for the nexus...any thoughts?
+Anneliz Hannan I like the larger screen size of the nexus, but it is definitely "big". So I'd definitely take the time to see how it feels. The only other problem I have is that I wish they put in a camera that was worthy of the phone. It's a perfectly fine camera, and can absolutely take some great pics, but it's definitely a step behind the Apple 4s glass.
+Anneliz Hannan Yes, do it. As +Josh Hall said it's rather larger, but it fits fine in my hands, the only issues I ever have are with the extreme upper left corner. I know someone who just used both hands for it, and they have no problems, because they've done that all their lives. Yeah, the camera could have been better, but it's still a pretty good camera, and the no shutter lag is amazing. If you're into ROM'ing, there's a great development community around it, at +xda-developers and +RootzWiki. If you're going for a custom ROM, I suggest AOKP with imoseyon's leankernel. A screen protector is not needed, and the screen is gorgeous. At really low brightness you can tell that it is PenTile, but just barely, so it's not an issue. The onscreen buttons are good, even though I was a physical button guy, I love them, because they can go away to take advantage of the whole screen. ICS is great, even on stock.
I'm curious as to how long before the Galaxy S II 4G Touch on Sprint gets ICS, been waiting patiently :(
Michael Grasser
+Jerry Gaetano If you're not afraid of rooting, I'm pretty sure there's an ICS custom ROM for the GSII.
Jerry Gaetano
Cool I'll head over to XDA and check it out; been running Caulkin's rom for a bit but its based on gingerbread. Thank you.
+Chris Pirillo From what I've seen ICS is definitely better but the flavors are not all the same. There is a huge difference between ICS on the Xoom and ICS on the Touchpad for example. While there are many features that make it attractive, some of the roms that are being rushed out sacrifice so much just to get to the 4.0 framework that it isn't worth it just yet to upgrade (e.g. HTC Flyer).
Anneliz Hannan
+Josh Hall +Chris Pirillo +Michael Grasser Thanks for your input. I like the idea of the larger screen, especially for those of us with eyesight waning!! The camera always seems to be the issue on all the android phones. Apple just always seems to capture that market, but I shall not worry..my eyes can't focus that well with any of them!
+Matthieu Hausig That's because ICS on the TouchPad is made by CyanogenMod, a third party, and ICS on Xoom is made by Google. And they're still pretty much the same anyway.
I've been running ICS on my touchpad and I must say that its awesome. Cyanogen has done a great job porting it to the touch pad with very few glitches. Only ting I have noticed that is wrong is no camera or mix functionality. Other than that its unbelievably stable.
I have been using ICS for a few months now. I think it is a good evolutionary step from 2.3.7 and 3.2.
I love my Galaxy Nexus, and ICS, but I do not love the way it drains the battery twice a day. Definitely order an extended life battery if you are considering the Nexus.
+Adam Geerdes You must have ridiculously high expectations of your phone if you run out twice a day. I last at least a day on normal battery.
+Hirofumi Nakano Nope, it was probably just a story speculating on what could be in Jellybean, there's been a few of those.

Strong easterly winds postpone Vega countdown
The second Vega flight, due on 4 May from Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana, has been postponed. The countdown was proceeding normally until it was halted 30 minutes before the planned liftoff owing to unfavourable weather conditions in the upper atmosphere.
The strong easterly winds at low and medium altitude were a potential risk requiring the launch to be postponed until they weaken to an acceptable level. Regular balloon measurements are being taken to evaluate their evolution.
Small Satellite Based Connectivity Solutions Market Assessment
Both the launcher and payloads are in a stable and ready condition awaiting the restart of the countdown. They can be held like this for several days.
Vega VV02 is carrying three satellites. The prime payload is Proba-V, the first of four ESA missions in the Vega Research and Technology Accompaniment – VERTA – programme to demonstrate the system's flexibility.
Proba-V has a reduced version of the Vegetation camera currently flying on the Spot satellites to provide a daily overview of global vegetation growth. The companion satellites are Vietnam's VNREDSat-1 and Estonia's ESTCube-1.

About Jeff Masters
Dr. Masters co-founded wunderground in 1995. He flew with the NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990. Co-blogging with him: Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 2:59 PM GMT on August 03, 2006
Here's a quick update on still Tropical Storm Chris.
From the National Hurricane Center discussion:
"The combination of dry low- to mid-level air and shear...associated with an upper-level cyclone that dropped southward into Chris...has taken its toll on the tropical cyclone. Chris is devoid of deep convection within about 75 N mi radius of the center."
Again in the 2006 Hurricane Season, shear rules. The GFS model continues to forecast shear over the westerly path is which Chris is moving.
With that said, eyes will be glued to this cyclone. If shear relaxes a bit, the storm could intensify. With the current shear trend, the storm might completely dissipate.
Hopefully the rule of King Shear will continue, making the residents of Florida and the Islands breathe a bit easier.
Figure 1. The long range radar from San Juan, Puerto Rico showing the showers and thunderstorms of Chris.

Gunboats Join Border Violence Fight
There are 40 comments on the Fox News story from Jul 4, 2012, titled Gunboats Join Border Violence Fight. In it, Fox News reports that:
Law enforcement officers working along the U.S.-Mexico border are stepping up efforts to respond to what is in effect a war going on south of the border, where drug cartel violence has spun out of control.

And how IS the illegal drug business for you these days since you all upgraded your machetes to automatic weapons? I see the illogical apology for illegal drug traffickers hasn't changed, though. It's wearing really thin; you should get with your fellows and think up some new propaganda to disseminate.

You are correct. SAW's right? I am "old school", we had M60's

We should just let the Mexicans kill each other if thats what they want. We should just build a tall wall around the border, so their bullets don't reach us.

I hope they are allowed to shoot anyone they catch crossing to US side illegally. No need to recover the body parts, the fish and turtles will clean up the trash.

We used M-60s for my first 12 years, then the 240s came out. Weighs the same, but about 2" longer, much fewer parts, fewer jams and barrel changes are done in less that 10 seconds. We still have 60s, and some units still have them on their MTOE. Reason being- there are still warehouses full of parts for them.

The boat they in looked like a PBR.

Yeah, but the SAWs can develop problems if not cared for and can handle less abuse than the 240. Give 'em a few generations and they'll be fine.
#47 Jul 7, 2012
True that and I have never had anything on four or two legs ever outrun my .308 super magnum load Galil either.
If there was a bounty on illegals crossing over I would be glad to set up camp and do my bit.
#48 Jul 7, 2012
I want to go with you if a bounty is put up for illegals crossing the river. All I can bring with me is a 30.06 Springfield (1903), bolt action. Effective range, about 400 to 600 yards with my current scope. Small entry wound, large exit wound.
Or we can sit and wait for awhile-let our elected members of the U.S. Congress continue to avoid their responsibility on illegal aliens ruining this country, and we can probably set-up on some south flyover on South IH35 and defend Austin from there.
#49 Jul 7, 2012
Right on. I used to visit friends in Laredo as a tween and teen and our favorite activity was to use our .22s to shoot the tubes or rafts these illegals were crossing over on. Was always comical to watch what we dubbed the Rio Grande Shuffle. The river is so low now that in most places you can cross and barely get your feet wet.
#50 Jul 7, 2012
I have seen the Rio Grande in the same condition. The Mexican's could just walk across. And there are some places where SUV's full of dope have just driven across.
That's why I kind of question the gunboats? They can't operate in a depth of a few feet, much less a few inches. Would be much better to use Apache's with Gatlings and Hellfires.
But we're still going to have to find us a comfy place on a flyover. There are 10,000 cartels operatives in Harris County alone. That should make it about 5,000 here in Austin. We will be fighting a two front urban war-bet on it.

"Tân Ba 1964/65 . . ." Bien Hoa by Nemorino
Bien Hoa Travel Guide: 34 reviews and 58 photos
From October 1964 to March 1965 I was the lowest ranking member of a five-man American "advisory team" stationed in a small Vietnamese village called Tân Ba on the bank of the Dong Nai River.
Since Tân Ba is not included in the VirtualTourist database, I am posting this page under the name of Bięn Hňa, which is a city several miles downstream on the other side of the river. At night we could see the lights of Bięn Hňa air base across the river to the east, which seemed strange because we didn't have any electricity in our village.
The composition of our "advisory team" varied from week to week, but basically it consisted of a major, a captain, two sergeants and me. It didn't really seem like being in the army, since I was not in a platoon or company or anything like that. The five of us took turns standing guard at night, so I would wake up the major when it was his turn. Most nights were quiet, except once or twice a month on dark nights with no moon, when small groups of Viet Cong would sneak in and try to blow us up.
Except for those few dark nights I really loved Tân Ba. The people were friendly and we lived right there in the village with them, not fenced off in a compound. It was sort of like being in the Peace Corps except that we weren't at peace.
Theoretically I was supposed to be the radio operator, but it soon turned out that I had a different function entirely, as I will explain in some of my General Tips.
Thirty years later, in 1995, my son Nick and I hired a car and a driver in Bięn Hňa and set off to find the village of Tân Ba. I had a general idea of how to get there, but didn't know where to turn off the main road, so our driver kept stopping and showing my old photos to the local people.
They gave us directions, and after a while we found the village... and the small pagoda... and the school..., all intact and all looking very similar to the way I remembered them.
The big difference was that our old helicopter pad no longer existed and the roads were narrower because it was no longer necessary to clear away the vegetation on both sides.
We arrived in the middle of the morning, shortly before recess at the village school. At recess the teachers invited us in for tea and passed my old photos around, including this one of children in the schoolyard in 1965. I felt a bit anxious about this at first, because I thought the children might have been killed or injured in the war, or might have been traumatized or demoralized by all the awful things that had happened.
But I needn't have worried. The children on the photos were grown up now. They had families and jobs, some had moved away and some hadn't.
The school was now full of a new generation of lively children, and the whole village seemed just as friendly and beautiful as I remembered it from thirty years before.
After a while a large group of people took us up the road the house where I had lived in 1964/65. Of course the old man and woman I had known were no longer alive, but three or four generations of their descendants were still living in the house.
None of them had inherited the old man's passion for gardening, however, so the front yard was a bit overgrown. Also the house hadn't been painted recently, but otherwise it looked much the same as I remembered it -- except that they had electricity now.
The girl in jeans in the photo was learning English at school, and even had a blackboard set up on an easel in the living room with some English vocabulary on it. Her parents wanted her to speak English with us, but she was too shy so they didn't insist.
Instead they took me around to the back and proudly showed me the new addition that they had built onto the back of the house, because there were so many more people living there now than before.
They also took us down to the river to show me how the landing had been improved, and finally to the pagoda to have a talk with the monk -- more about that in the General Tips aka Favorites on this page.
I suggest that you read these tips/reviews in chronological order, which you can easily do by clicking on the link at the bottom of each tip.
Thanks to my older son Nick for taking the pictures during our travels through Vietnam in 1995 and for scanning my old photos from 1964/65.

Great story and great writing, Don. You've earned your CIB. Row row row your boat ... et cetera.
Good page about old, good times.
Oleg, thanks for your ratings and comments. This was an important time for me, and was good in some ways, but I was very relieved when I got out of Vietnam and out of the army.
That?s normal reaction to any normal man. Unfortunately when we are at the age between eighteen and twenty five, we are naive and believe to patriotic fairy tales.
I see old good but too heavy M-14 on the opening photo.
Marvellous that you have kept a record and all those photos from your time in the war. It's been interesting reading. Our neighbor was in the war, and he still won't talk about it, not even to his family.
Dee, thanks for your ratings and nice comments. I was very lucky in that nothing terribly dreadful happened to me in the war. For one thing, I was there early -- a year or two later it got much worse. Also my function as an interpreter kept me safely out of the jungle and out of the line of fire. But I know several people who, like your neighbor, refuse to talk about their experiences, and I'm sure they have good reasons. VT member breughel says his grandfather never told him anything about his service in World War I.

So nice that you were able to make a return visit in peacetime with your son.A great personnel story!
I'm back with a functioning computer and have enjoyed reading the additions to your Bięn Hňa page about Tân Ba. It's still an interesting story. Thanks Don!
Very interesting page and some wonderful old photos. Irene
Very fascinating personal story, Don. It's like a novel. Great you were able to revisit the place with you son.
This is so amazing...the memories and the history...superb. My sister was a nurse Vietnam and her husband a doctor. I gave her letters to the war museum and just kept copies.
Thanks for sharing, Don. This is a very special page.

Lesson 2: Letting Go of Anger
This guided workbook will be your companion to lesson two from Oprah's Lifeclass.
Some psychologists believe anger is a reaction that occurs to help us protect ourselves from the grief that may arise if we accept a loss or disappointment. Look within yourself for anything from rage to annoyance. What's the object of your anger?
Thinking about the anger you've just noted, see if the underlying cause of the anger is fear. For example, you may be angry about an ex-spouse because you're afraid you won't have enough money after the divorce. If you can find a fear, write it down.
Now, still thinking about the same subject, gently go deep into the anger to see if you are feeling sorrow or loss. If there 's something you lost—or never had—that has created a wound or sorrow, write it down.
If fear and sorrow were absent, there would be no anger. What act of courage might help you defeat your fear? Where can you go to experience your grief? This workbook is a safe space to solve the underlying problems that keep your anger burning.
Oprah tells us that forgiveness is giving up the hope that things will turn out other than they did and accepting that events occurred as they occurred. Are there things you can't accept that happened as they did? Write down what you still can't accept.
IN 50 WORDS OR LESS, explain why this event is unacceptable to you. What bad things have happened because it occurred? You may be tempted to write a novel here, but limit yourself to 50 words—if you want to learn how to free yourself from anger.
Write down at least 3 good things that happened because of the "unacceptable" event. For example, "Cancer... (1) made me find the beauty in life; (2) helped me lose my fear of death; and (3) showed me that nothing matters except love, peace and joy."
As you begin to acknowledge the good that came from your "unacceptable " past, you will find forgiveness arising. This is a way to "let go" of anger even if you feel that you're in a rage—that is, that you don't have anger so much as anger has you.

London | Dubai Healthcare City | Atlantis Hotel Dubai | The Clinic, DIFC
At the London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery located on Harley Street, London and in Dubai Healthcare City and the Atlantis Hotel, Shuiqi Spa, their commitment has been to provide the highest standard of medical treatment with the aim of heightening the patient's self esteem and inner confidence. Drs. Maurizio and Roberto Viel are fully qualified Italian cosmetic surgeons with international certification in cosmetic surgery and fellowships with a number of well-established associations throughout Europe and America.
Drs. Maurizio and Roberto Viel brothers have been practising cosmetic surgery for over 20 years and are recognised as world leaders in their field. They are often the first to introduce many new revolutionary procedures to the field of cosmetic/aesthetic surgery and one of the only clinics in Dubai to offer the latest techniques in fat removal using the VASER Liposuction. The Viel brothers are also known for their advanced surgical techniques for Breast Augmentation, MACS face lift, Penoplasty and Bodytite to name a few. In terms of non-surgical procedures, Drs Maurizio and Roberto Viel are also well regarded in their skills at administering muscle freezing injections to treat lines and wrinkles, fillers, fractora firm and other similar cosmetic treatments.
Fat removing procedures are becoming more and more popular each day. Everyday women from all over the world are going under the knife in order to achieve their desired physiques without having to go through the whole process of dieting and weight loss. As common as it is amongst women, liposuction has become more accepted between men as well.
Many are able to diet and exercise so they could maintain their healthy and good-looking bodies in check; however, some are not granted with enough time to fit all of their daily tasks in their tight schedules. Typically, men want sculpted abdomens, love handles, and torsos. With Vaser Liposuctions, you can get rid of up to 4 liters of fat in just a few hours. It is the latest substitute for traditional liposuction, where it uses ultrasound energy to melt the fat without compromising veins, blood vessels, nerves, and surrounding tissue. Yielding beautiful results and minimal recovery time.
To know more about liposuction in London, continue reading here.
Liposuction is available at London Centre for Aesthetic Surgery in Harley Street, London and is performed by Drs. Maurizio and Roberto Viel.

Attention has been called recently1 to the importance of the Bulgarian bacteria group in the preparation of ensilage, the fermented green food for cattle. As the result of several hundred bacteriologic analyses of many different kinds of ensilage at all stages of fermentation, it appears that the Bulgarian group of bacteria has a particular significance in the ripening of normal ensilage. The report is interesting as indicating that the value of the fermentation products of lactic acid bacteria was recognized for cattle and used many years before its significance for man came to be appreciated. It is also interesting to find that the Bulgarian group of bacteria should occur commonly in connection with the agricultural development of a past generation when little was known of the bacteriologic rôle played by this particular kind of cattle fodder.

Jeremy M. Wilson, 34, pleaded guilty in Bennington criminal court to a felony DUI count and a misdemeanor count of leaving the scene of a crash which caused property damage.
The state dismissed three other pending felony counts of driving under the influence of alcohol.
Wilson was arraigned on two felony counts of drunk driving Oct. 29 and two more felony counts of the same charge, plus the misdemeanor count of leaving the scene of an accident, Oct. 31.
Police said in the first case Wilson was legally inebriated when he was stopped on Route 7 in Pownal on Oct. 13.
In the second case, police said Wilson fled from a crash near a horse farm on Middle Pownal Road on Oct. 21. He was found hiding in a horse pasture, police said.
A breath test indicated Wilsons blood-alcohol content was more than three times the legal limit for driving, police said.
Wilson was sentenced Friday to serve one to two years in prison, but all of it was suspended except for eight days.MORE IN This Just InNORTH BENNINGTON Two public meetings, in North Bennington and Shaftsbury, have been set for...
