This afternoon, The Guru is coming by to reconstruct God, so God (the other one) willing, I will be back in serious computing business by this evening.
When I was recently in Brittany, my hosts supplied me with a state-of-the-art laptop and a state-of-the-art internet connection. These last few days, without God (my one) and having to make do with Dawkins (my obsolete and clunky little laptop, the thing I am typing into now), I have felt less connected to the world than I did in Brittany. I am connected, after a fashion. But Dawkins is so slow and clunky that I have been doing only essentials (like finding out about England being hammered in the ODI yesterday), and checking incoming emails, and shoving anything however bad up here once every day. It's like I've regressed to about 2000.
I have managed to put up a few pictures here, in God's absence. But Dawkins' screen makes these pictures look terrible. I am looking forward to seeing God's version of these pictures and hope they will be greatly improved compared to what I am seeing now.
Thank God (the other one) I haven't been depending on God (my one) for music. As I have surely explained here many times, one big reason I prefer CDs (and separate CD players scattered around my home) to all this twenty first century computerised music on a computer is that if God goes wrong, as he just has, I don't lose music. I also have music concerts recorded off of the telly, onto DVDs, which I can play on my telly, which is likewise a completely separate set-up to God.
In general, the argument against having everything done by one great big master computer is that when something goes wrong with that master computer, everything else in your life also goes wrong, just when you may need those things not to. One of the things that willgo wrong, rather regularly, with your all-in-one master computer is when this or that particular one of its excessively numerous functions becomes seriously out of date. I mean, if it has a vacuum cleaner included, what happens if vacuum cleaners suddenly get hugely better? In Brian world, all I have to do is get another new and improved vacuum cleaner, and chuck out the old one. In all-in-one master computer world, you are stuck with your obsolete vacuum cleaner. Or, if you can, you have to break open your all-in-one master computer and fit a new vacuum cleaner, and probably also lots of other new stuff to make sure the new vacuum cleaner works, which buggers up a couple of your other functions that used to work fine but which no longer work fine. Or at all. I prefer to keep things simple, and separate.
Something rather similar applies with how to handle (the other) God. That is another arrangement you don't want to have running the whole of your life for you either. It's okay if you do God for some of the time and keep Him in his place, but you want scientists telling you about science, doctors about medicine, and your work colleagues about your work, and so on. If, on the other hand, absolutely everything in your life, and worse, everything in the entire world you live in, is controlled by ((your version of) the other) God, everything is very liable to go to Hell. (Aka: Separation of Church and State. Aks: don't be a religious nutter.)
I have my own particular take on (the other) God, which is that He is made-up nonsense. But just as wise believers in (the other) God don't let that dominate their thinking on non-God things, nor do I think that my opinions about (the other) God can explain everything else as well. These opinions merely explain the particular matter of (the other) God being made-up nonsense.
Do not, as they say, put all your eggs in one basket.
As of right now, late afternoon, there is rain and wind outside my window, and not long ago there was thunder. That's in London SW1. And yet over in St John's Wood, there is a test match going on, and there is no mention of any weather getting in the way of things.
Oh, as if to prove me wrong, Nasser Hussain has just talked about how the rain is staying "east of Regent's Park", in other words travelling northwards from me. North east and Lords would be getting a little bit of moisture some time around now.
It's very tense, with England 62/1 and chasing just over three hundred, with an hour and a bit this evening and then all of tomorrow, weather permitting. Ballance and Cook have put on fifty, with Cook batting like his life depends on it. Which it does. He won't die if he gets out soon, but how well he does today and tomorrow could have a big impact on how he lives from now on.
NOT MUCH LATER: 80/4. Cook just got out, for 22. Ballance and Bell already gone. England are not playing at all well at the moment.
Yesterday, someone emailed or tweeted Test Match Special, saying that the Notts captain, Chris Read, could be drafted in, to replace Cook as captain and Prior (who is now dropping catches) as wicketkeeper. It may eventually come to that. Continuity of selection is all very well, but what if the continuously selected team keeps on continuously losing?
See this earlier piece.

I have just done a comment at Samizdata, on this (about the recently concluded football World Cup in which England did its usual rather badly (although it did at least get there)), saying this:
I agree with the first comment, about how, if individualism explains this, England (England perhaps more than Britain) ought to be winning tennis, golf, swimming etc., routinely.
I think much depends on what a country (to use collective shorthand) just considers important, for several years rather than just for a few weeks. Like it or hate it (personally I hate it) Britain, definitely including England, put in a mighty effort (both individual and collective) to make a success (but damn the cost) of the 2012 Olympics, both as an event and by winning a ton of medals.
But from what I hear from football fans, English football takes winning the Premier League, and then doing well in European club competition, more seriously than doing well in the World Cup. The feeling I get is that the winning England footballer is the one who makes the most money throughout his career. A former Spurs manager recently talked about how some of his players would fake injury, and wanted his help to do this, to avoid being picked for England. That would knacker them to no personal career purpose.
Plus, there is this huge split between regular English fans who support their clubs week in week out, and people like me who watch the World Cup but not a lot else. That Germany Brazil game was the most memorable football game in years, for me. For a proper fan, it would be some obscure promotion battle or an amazing away draw against a European club that got their team to the last sixteen of the Champions League, or whatever. For a Man U supporter it would be that remarkable last ditch win against Bayern in the Champions League final.
Sadly, I think politicians have a big influence on this. The kind of power and money they command doesn't make successful countries out here in the real world (Brazil, Argentina, etc.), quite the reverse. But it can make national sporting effort more successful, if by that you mean more medals and trophies. Angela Merkel is a big fan of her now triumphant football team. I wonder what else she and Germany's other politicians did to support them, other than her showing up for lots more of their games than she had to.
Sport. War by other means. Discuss.
That last point is one I definitely want to write about more in the nearish future. How A-bombs and H-bombs have made all out war between Great Powers impossible, and caused an unprecedented outbreak of peace between Great Powers, and thus caused national rivalry to express itself in sport rather than war. That kind of thing.

Yes, I'm watching this bizarre game.
A commentator said of Brazil's defenders that they are all over the place, or some such phrase, and added:
It's like a testimonial match.
For you Brazil, ze turnament iss over.
My prediction? Germany 5 Brazil 2. My thinking? Momentum will shift. Brazil will be desperate - desperate - not to be further humiliated. Germany will spare them further humiliation and save their energy for the final.
Vee shell see.
Hansen and Shearer of the BBC are now raking it over at half time. Were Germany brilliant (Shearer), or Brazil awful (Hansen)?
LATER: I had a feeling about this game when I set the video recorder. But I hoped that it wouldn't go to extra time because there is something else I want to record, starting at 11.30 pm. Please let regular time not end all square. Something tells me that my prayer will be answered.
FINAL SCORE: Brazil 1 Germany 7. Well, Brazil did score a goal. Right at the end. Just after Germany had missed making it eight nothing.
The Spaniards may now be feeling a bit less bad.
Yesterday, London was bent totally out of shape by the Tour de France. It became a French provincial city for the day, as I suppose some French people think it is always.
It rained. I was otherwise engaged, and in any case did not fancy fighting my way through crowds for the mere chance of snapping a herd of cyclists racing past me for about twenty seconds, especially after I had watched a Lance Armstrong documentary on my television. What a shit. And what a shitty sport. Besides which there would, I reasoned, soon be plenty of photos on the www of the drugged up veloherd pouring past the Docklands Towers, the City and its Big Things, Parliament, Buckingham Palace and so on.
Most of the pictures I found today involved Parliament and Buckingham Palace rather than more modern Big Things, and the veloherd (all with hats designed by Zaha Hadid) of course, and the best Tour de France in London snap by far that I found today was taken three months before the big day, when they were still telling everyone about it:
Classic. Seriously, what better background could there be to a sport that is all about wheels?
Original and slightly bigger picture, with the story, here.

Further to this posting, more incoming from Darren, following my interest in further Oval views, looking to the right of the Spraycan shot in that earlier posting, towards the middle of London:
Here's the other photo I took at the same time. No Shard, but you can just see Victoria Tower (The King's Tower) with a nice crane alongside. Not a great view, but then again actually pretty good considering it was taken with a device whose main purpose it to access the internet.
Yes, cranes are always good. Here at BrianMicklethwaitDotCom, we like cranes. And yes, we can all see the Other Parliament Tower, by which I mean the other one besides Big Ben:
But now take a closer look (good thing Darren sent me the full sized version rather than a cut-down version) at that Thing Cluster, in the middle:
Now you can also see Big Ben itself, and the BT Telecom Tower or whatever it may have decided lately to call itself instead. I know this Thing as the GPO Tower, and it was the first of London's modern Big Things. And there it is, to the left of the spike that is Big Ben. (Here is another BT Tower picture, one of my best ever snaps, I think.)
The point of photos like Darren's, and like the previous one taken from the same spot, is not that they are perfect photos. They are not. They were taken with a mobile phone, in fading light, for heavens sakes. What matters is that such photos show what can be photographed from this or that vantage point, what (if you have really good eyesight, better than mine) you can see.
If anyone else - me for instance - wants to go there with a better camera with a zoomier zoom, we now know what we are looking for. We know that a pictorial snark is there to be hunted.
Incoming from Darren:
I just read your comment about The Spraycan always being lit the same way in your
Big Things in the sunset article and it made me realise I might have one or more photos waiting on my phone that I took last night that would confirm your assertion. I wasn't (deliberately) photographing The Spraycan, of course.
Unfortunately it turned out that rather a large bit of "clutter" had thwarted me - see attached:
So, you'd have been watching Jason Roy upstage Dilshan then.
That looks like a great seat you had there, way up in the stand. A while back, D, you said something about us both going to the Oval. Rudely (apologies) I now realise I never replied. Serves me right. But next time you are going to that high up spot, and there's space for me, let me know.
The Spraycan is right in the middle of this picture, at the back there, behind the floodlight. The Spraycan being at Vauxhall and the Oval being right near there also, there it is. Over to the right but further away, there are such things as the Strata and the Shard to be seen, or so I seem to recollect from when I was last at the Oval.
I'd enjoy the cricket too.
Surrey are doing really well just now. In addition to Roy's T20 heroics, they are now third in Division 2 of the County Championship and have an outside chance of getting promoted right back into Division 1. All this after a truly frightful start to the season. Their last four first class games have been won 2 drawn 2, which may not sound that amazing, but Surrey have topped 400 in their first innings every time, and in one of those innings even got past 600. The last time they did that must have been in the halcyon days of Ramps. Now, instead of just the one guy making half the runs, they're all at it. Burns, Ansari, Davies, Solanki, Roy (off 55 balls) and new captain Wilson have all got first class centuries in the last few weeks, and Tremlett nearly got one also.
Gloucester saved that game where Surrey got 600, losing only one wicket throughout the last day. But the point is, Surrey are making big first innings runs again, for the first time since Ramps went off the boil. Even if you don't win after that, you don't lose either, and the bonus points pile up. For batting obviously, but for bowling as well, because nothing puts pressure on opposition batters like a ton of runs against them. Gloucester may have escaped heroically, but Surrey still got quite a few more points than them in that game.
One of my favourite computer functions is Screen Capture. For years, I didn't know how to do this. How is "prt sc" screen capture? I used to just photo the screen. Then I got told, and more to the point, told at a time just before I found many uses for this procedure, and as a result, I actually got it fixed in my head.
So it is that I am able to capture fleeting moments like this one:
That was the passage of play that turned the game England's way, today, on day one of the test match at Headingley. Sri Lanka went from 228-5 and motoring to 229-9, in nine balls. In among all this, Broad got a hat trick, but didn't even realise and had to be told! There was then a little last wicket stand and they got to over 250, but the big damage had been done.
Here is another interesting moment, which is the moment when they show me all the guys who worked on Adobe Photoshop, while I am loading Adobe Photoshop.
But, the trouble is, when I do a Screen Capture while that is happening, it doesn't work. What gets captured is the moment when Adobe Photoshop is finally loaded. Until then, I guess my computer is too busy loading Photoshop to do a Screen Capture. Either all that, or else I just wasn't doing it right, as is entirely possible.
But instead of obsessing about what I might or might not be doing wrong, I instead simply photographed the moment, just like old times:
The reason I wanted to photo this was all the Indian names, in among the occasional regular American ones. Interesting. Where are they all based, I wonder? I'm guessing somewhere in the USA, but what do I know? Adobe seems to have a lot of places where they could be. And of course, if something like Adobe doesn't know how to plug a global network of co-workers together, who does? From where I sit, these Indian guys could be anywhere. Even so, like I say, interesting.
A lot of the Americans I read on the Internet say that Obama is destroying America, and he seems to be doing as much as he can along these lines. But there is a lot of ruin in a country, and a lot of ruin in American. This screen shot suggests that at least parts of the good old American upward economic mobility ladder are working just fine.

UPDATE: Twitter user @RaptorClaw141 went to his local GameStop and saw the poster in their store. According to him, the manager had no specific date of when to put it up. Raptor tweeted a picture showing the full poster, added to the gallery above.
A forum post on the official Call of Duty forums (which has now been removed by ATVI) appeared showing a leaked promotional image for the first Black Ops 2 DLC, called 'Revolution.' This image reveals that this pack will contain a bonus weapon – 'Peacekeeper' SMG. If this image is real, this will be the first time a Call of Duty game has gotten weapon DLC.
The image also reveals that the pack contains 4 new MP maps and 1 new Zombie map.
Multiplayer Maps:
This information is not confirmed, but according to another image appearing this pack will be out for Xbox 360 on January 29th. The images show that this is a GameStop US location, suggesting that an official announcement is coming very soon.
We'll keep you posted.
UPDATE 2: After the leak, Treyarch tweeted that DLC news is coming soon..

NFL 2013 Schedule Release Date
Like many on here, I'm extremely excited to see our schedule for the 2013 season. Time to see how many prime time games we have, how the games are spread out, and when our bye week is. Usually the schedule is released two Tuesdays before the draft which would be April 16th!

Interesting read.....some of it no doubt is true, but it was pretty biased.
If you want to respond then one of you write a column about what a great job Gruden has done in the same format. Please, somebody explain to all of us what's so great about what's going on at One Buc that is supposed to give us any hope for the future.
For one thing, I am thrilled with our draft picks and free agents. We have a team that's being molded over the last few drafts and I like where we are headed. All this gloom and doom hatred from people with an agenda sucks. We are beginning a new season and Rick sounds sick, sad and sorry. I can almost smell his rotten ideas 75 miles south.He is the one who wrote the Tony Dungy firing piece on the eve of our Championship game and took a lot of joy and anticipation out of that. I know we lost but he killed the spirit. It seems he still after whatever he can spoil or kill. What is it will the sick dweebs?
Don't leave us, Closet. Good times are ahead. The Agendites will disappear into their little crudholes as soon as we win a few. We need you!

Hostellerie du Vieux Pérouges Review
If you want a sense of stepping back into medieval France, tarry a while at "The Old Man of Pérouges," a gorgeous complex of four ancient stone residences set around an extraordinary corbelled, 14th-century timber-frame house. At the inn's famous restaurant, regional delights are served up on pewter plates by waitresses in folk costumes, recipes handed down from the days of Charles VII inspire the cook, and everybody partakes of the famous dessert called galette pérugienne à la crème (the "pancake of Pérouges"). The historic vibe lingers in your guest room, thanks to time-burnished antiques, gigantic stone hearths, and glossy wood floors and tables. Rooms in the geranium-decked 15th-century Au St-Georges et Manoir manor are more spacious than—but also nearly twice the cost of—those in Le Pavillon (aka "L'Annexe"). Breakfast is extra.

People in one Toledo neighborhood say they're worried for their safety after a bullet damaged a home, and was then found by a child.
People who live on Hazelhurst Avenue in west Toledo say they are not sure who fired the shot, or where the bullet came from. They say they usually feel safe in their neighborhood, but the stray bullet that damaged a front door has them on edge.
They say they've been hearing a lot of gunshots lately. They're afraid someone may be randomly shooting into the air. They say thankfully it was only a door that that bullet hit, but they're afraid they might not be as lucky next time.
"It's the same height as where kids stand. Anybody you know, they could be coming in and out and it could hit them in the stomach or the back and it did some damage to the door and it could have done some damage to the human body," said one concerned resident, who did not want to be identified.
That resident says her child found the bullet while looking for Easter eggs.
Residents say they filed a police report about the incident, and have noticed more TPD patrols in the area recently.

I will buy the first episode and decide from that whether I want to purchase additional episodes.
I will buy the games as soon as they release. They should include a Battle Frontier and a powered up Rayquaza as well. The Mega Latios and Latias will no doubt show up.
I might buy this game, does not look bad at all.
Hopefully they announce Pokemon Z! A Diancie announcement would be nice as well! I am hoping for Hoopa and Volcanion to be showcased on the show floor!

2007 Cannes Film Festival: Kerry Washington
by POPSUGAR Fashion 43 Reactions 0 Shares Print
I love this emerald green gown but I am not in love with it, if that makes sense. The jewel-tone color and grand silhouette are gorgeous, but when put together, something is off. Don't get me wrong, Kerry pulls it off really well, but perhaps it's too much green for my eyes. I do, however, like that the bodice is sweetheart and that unique necklace! I'm iffy, what about you?
Love It or Hate It

lizlee89 6 years
she's so unbelievable gorgeous, I love her hair like that, and the ring is so cute and contrasting - overall, this look is a hit!

nope, sorry Fab, that doesn't make sense - I think this dress is perfection...

JKe895 7 years
I'm slightly undecided because while the color looks absolutely beautiful on her the cut looks like it's going to either fall off or overwhelm.

I'm loving the bright colored satin looks I'm seeing a lot. With that being said... where did her curves go?

it doesnt fit her right at all, and im not loving the necklace. but the color of the dress is great

LaLaLaurie06 7 years
the dress doesn't look like it fits her properly in the bust area. when i look at it, i expect her to just pop right out, or at least move without the material moving with her. it's alright but a little awkward.
CestLaVie 7 years
I like the color, she looks gorgeous but I am afraid if she turns or leans the wrong way, her boobs are going to pop out.
nimue 7 years
I agree with fab, it looks a little off. The bottom half of the dress looks odd

It looks a little ill fitting.

i dont think id wear it but it looks fab on her, she has reali pulled out all the stops l8ly at events, she looks gorgeous

It definitely looks like she hit the mall on her way. I'm not a fan of the abbreviated sweetheart where the boobs are barely covered. If you're big busted its not enough coverage and looks whorey. If you're small busted you could probably use the illusion of bulk that more fabric gives.
fashionstar 7 years
I don't like it, it feels kind of prom dressy to me and I think that necklace is too much, love the color though.

This dress doesn't look like it fits properly.
ktownpolarbear 7 years
I think the necklace is a bit much (agree with Ashlyn Rose), but she looks AMAZING!
Ashlyn-Rose 7 years
I would get rid of the necklace (I love it, but not with this dress) and pull her hair back. With a dress like that, I think the necklace and big hair is a little too much. She also shouldn't hunch over like that. Good posture always helps!
cfeccentric 7 years

mommie 7 years
I too love the color but I think the sweetheart bodice should be fuller.
Karla-Sugar 7 years
I think it's actually the cut of the dress that's the issue: everything is a little bit too much. Too low on the first tier, too much mermaid, too much train.

Object-oriented Modeling and Design
James Rumbaugh
Prentice Hall, 1991 - Computers - 500 pages
Object oriented modelling and design promoted better understanding of requirements cleaner designs and more maintainable systems. Often books on related subjects rely to heavy on programming and coding forcing readers to think in terms of the compute and not the application.
Object-Oriented Modeling and Design emphasizes that object-oriented technology is more than just away of programming. It applies techniques to the entire software development cycle. This volume presents a new object-oriented software development methodology -- from analysis through design to implementation.
Significant features
- focuses on high-level front-end conceptual processes of analysis and design rather than just on the lo-level back-end implementation steps of programming
- covers the entire development life cycle --analysis design implementation -- without a change of notation at each stage
- presents graphical notation and methodology independent of any particular programming language
- includes case studies of industrial objects-oriented applications developed by the authors
- offers extensive examples and exercises that bring out fine points summary lists of concepts and methodology steps and almost 300 diagrams.
Object-Oriented MOdeling and Design offers the best in practical advice and examples for industrial applications

The plot involves a peace conference between the Federation of Planets and the troublesome Klingons. The Klingons are hoping to perform a little damage control after triggering a mining disaster on one of their moons; their spokesman is the seemingly contrite General Chang ([[Performer~P57110~Christopher Plummer~christopherplummer]]). All negotiations abruptly cease when a Klingon vessel is attacked, and Capt. Kirk ([[Performer~P111030~William Shatner~williamshatner]]) and Dr. McCoy ([[Performer~P37451~DeForest Kelley~deforestkelley]]) are accused of the crime. As they stand trial for murder, Mr. Spock ([[Performer~P104553~Leonard Nimoy~leonardnimoy]]) and Vulcanian trainee Lt. Valeris ([[Performer~P11829~Kim Cattrall~kimcattrall]]) try to locate the real culprits. It turns out that Kirk and McCoy are victims of a conspiracy to foment further hostilities between the Good Guys and the Klingons. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
