Boston Globe Sale Goes Into Extra Innings
The bottom of the ninth for this particular media deal was last Friday. That's when the New York Times Company was all set to complete the transfer of the Boston Globe to Red Sox owner John Henry.
However, per a report in the Worcester Telegram & Gazette (one of the other publications attached to the deal), a Superior Court judge on that same day issued a temporary restraining order blocking finalization of the $70 million transaction. It has to do with a class action suit, filed in 2009 against the Telegram & Gazette, by the paper's carriers. From T&G editor Aaron Nicodemus:
On Monday, the New York Times asked that the judge's restraining order be lifted, and the sale be allowed to go through. In exchange, the New York Times would set aside a sum of money — to be determined by Judge [Sharon] Frison — that would be designated to pay a future settlement in the case.

"This is really troubling," Baker told Michael Calderone. "We're blurring the line between news and punditry even further and opening ourselves to legitimate questions among readers about where the White House press corps gets its information."

At Least Two Bidders Still Interested In Boston Globe
Today, The Boston Globe has an update on its own sale process.
The Boston paper reports that two potential buyers have offered to pay around $35 million for the Globe and the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, and have visited the paper in the past five days.
One group is led by Stephen Taylor, whose family used to own the Globe before selling it to The New York Times Co. The other group is private equity firm Platinum Equity, which purchased The San Diego Union-Tribune earlier this year.
Since the potential sale was revealed over the summer, another party headed by Boston Celtics co-owner Stephen Pagliuca and Jack Connors, chairman of Partners HealthCare, was said to be interested in the Globe. However, today the Globe reports that Pagliuca and Connors made the lowest bid for the paper and have not taken a tour of the facilities in recent days. Pagliuca and Connors could be pulling out of the bidding as Pagliuca considers running for Sen. Edward Kennedy's Senate seat. If he runs, owning a newspaper could be a conflict of interest, the paper said.
Final bids are due at the end of the month.
Last week, Times Co. executives Arthur Sulzberger Jr. and Janet Robinson visited the Globe in an effort to calm employees' fears about the future of the paper.
"Our hand is not being forced," Sulzberger told the Boston employees, adding that the decision to sell would take a number of factors into consideration, including the impact a sale would have on the paper and the Boston community.

Sulzberger, Robinson Try To Calm Boston Globe Employees' Fears In Meeting Today
Boston Globe employees have been expecting a visit from New York Times Co. executives Arthur Sulzberger Jr. and Janet Robinson since late last month, and we didn't really know what to expect.
Today, Sulzberger and Robinson told staffers that although they are in talks to sell the Boston paper, they are not being forced to sell it if offers from prospective buyers are too low, the Globe reported.
"Our hand is not being forced," Sulzberger told the Boston employees. "We are not in a situation where we must absolutely sell the Globe or the Worcester Telegram & Gazette for the good of the company."
Sulzberger added that the decision to sell would take a number of factors into consideration, including the impact a sale would have on the paper and the Boston community.
But the exec's assurances did little to assuage the Globe's beleaguered employees' fears or doubts in the company. One staffer, Jeanne Shimkus, even drew applause for her contentious comments to Sulzberger and Robinson, the Globe reported: "I have no respect for anything you say. And I don't believe a word you say," she said.
"You banged us around really good," said Marty Callaghan, president of the Boston Newspaper Printing Pressmen's Union. "Some new owner better not come in here and think that they are going to go, with the way things usually go, and come in and bang these unions around again."
Whether or not a new owner will be coming in at all remains to be seen, but given the outlook of the economy, chances are the Globe's employees aren't finished being banged around yet.

Times Co. Admits Boston Globe Is Up For Sale While San Diego Paper Owner Makes Bid
Today we have two updates on the possible sale of The Boston Globe, both coming from the Globe itself.
Last month, Globe owner the New York Times Co. avoided the question of whether the Globe was up for sale while reporting its second quarter earnings. During a conference call, CEO Janet Robinson said the Times Co. would not comment on rumors of a sale, but noted that cost cutting measures and increased newsstand pricing had helped "put it on stronger financial footing."
However, yesterday the Globe reported that the Times Co. had revealed the sale in a quarterly report filed with the SEC. In the filing, the company said it had hired Goldman, Sachs & Co. "to explore the potential sale of its New England Media Group," which includes the Globe and the Worcester Telegram & Gazette, as well as their Web sites, the Globe said.
Then today, the paper said that California buyout firm Platinum Equity, which recently purchased the San Diego Union-Tribune, had made a $35 million bid for the Globe to the Times Co. last week. The offer also included the assumption of $59 million in pension liabilities, the Globe added.
Platinum's bid is the third received by the Times Co., according to the Boston paper. The other two bids came from two Boston-based groups, one led by Boston Celtics co-owner Stephen Pagliuca and former ad exec Jack Connors, and the other headed up by Stephen Taylor, a former executive at the Globe and a member of the family that sold the paper to the Times Co. in 1993.

Robert Miller | September 16, 2013 | Comments
A glimpse into the new and updated functionality of Google Analytics' Advanced Segments.
I have to admit, with all the amazing updates Google Analytics (GA) keeps pushing out, the past few years have felt a bit like the seven years of mobile, "This is the best analytics feature enhancement ever!" "No, this is!" No, this is!" - you get the point. But I have to say, after getting my hands dirty with the most recent updates to Advanced Segments in Google Analytics, this just introduced a whole new yard stick for all other digital analytics tools to be up against.
With the new segmentation functionality beginning to roll out to GA accounts, let's take a look into the Advanced sections of the updated Advanced Segments functionality, Conditions, and Sequences.
The Business Problem
Let's assume we have an analytics implementation where we utilize standard page level tracking and custom events for user interactions like video plays and button clicks. We want to look at users that progress through a certain flow on the site, such as visitors from paid search who landed on the home page or a specific landing page > interacted with a specific video on the page > visited the contact form > converted to a lead.
The Problem
Using legacy methods of advanced segment creation, this specific flow couldn't be defined. That's because the segmentation engine that was in place would look for all of these items, but in no particular order. Now on the other hand, you can define the segment path you want to analyze, and it can even be across multiple visits!
The Solution
In the new user interface (UI) for Advanced Segments, you click on the "+ Create New Segment" button in the top navigation.
This will display a new UI for creating Advanced Segments in GA. The top six sections in the left navigation are fairly close to what was in GA previously, so we won't cover this here. What we're interested in is the Advanced section, specifically "Conditions" and "Sequences."
From this view you'll create your new advanced segment. Similar to creating a goal funnel, you add in the different steps that identify a target set of users. But that's pretty much where the similarities stop. The three most impactful new abilities of the Advanced section are:
So that's a pretty small glimpse into the amazingly powerful capabilities of the updates to Advanced Segments in Google Analytics. The granularity and specificity of segmentations is practically endless (I left out in the above section that all of these new features can be combined on top of each other and the standard advanced segmentation, creating something worthy of being dubbed "Inception 2").
So go forth; start using the tool and creating even more amazing segments than ever before. Get to know your customers better than ever before. Start creating more value than ever before. And don't wait, because you never know. Google just may come out with something even more amazing by the time you've mastered this gem.

Heat win 13th straight, top Grizzlies 98-91
For a while, it looked as though a pair of long streaks were in jeopardy.
AP Basketball Writer
For a while, it looked as though a pair of long streaks were in jeopardy.
That is, until LeBron James finally got going - at the perfect time.
Dwyane Wade scored 22 points and set up James for a critical 3-pointer in the final half-minute, and the Heat extended their winning streak to 13 games by beating the Memphis Grizzlies 98-91 on Friday night.
"I thought this was one of our better wins of the season," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "It was tough. We had to work for everything. We had to find a different way to win, deal with frustration ... and then make some plays down the stretch."
On a night when he shot just 4 for 14, James finished two rebounds shy of a triple-double, with 18 points and 10 assists. Shane Battier scored 14, Chris Bosh added 13 and Ray Allen had 10 for Miami, which snapped Memphis' eight-game winning streak.
"He's the best player in the world," Bosh said. "But we have the best supporting cast."
Down the stretch, James - who had 14 points, four rebounds and four assists in the fourth quarter alone - was simply too much. After managing only four points in the first three quarters, James still wound up reaching double digits for the 475th straight regular-season game.
"He made the big shot and that's all that matters," said Memphis' Marc Gasol, who led all scorers with 24.
Gasol tied the game with a pair of free throws with 2:44 left, before the Heat scored the next five. Bosh had a three-point play, and Wade took off in transition for a slam that put Miami up 90-85.
Gasol scored the next four, but Memphis got no closer. James calmly hit a 3-pointer with 24 seconds remaining to seal the win.
"I'm always confident in my next shot," James said. "D-Wade gave me a great pass and I was able to knock it down."
The Grizzlies got 14 points from Zach Randolph, who said he was bothered throughout after turning his left ankle on the game's first possession. Mike Conley added 14 for Memphis, which got 10 from Quincy Pondexter.
"I have no problem with the game," Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins said. "We were right there. They just made a few more plays than we did down the stretch."
For the Heat, this week was filled with attention for things like pregame dunking exhibitions and their version of a "Harlem Shake" video - which generated more than 5 million views on YouTube in about 24 hours of being posted.
Then came a basketball game, the likes of which had not been seen in the NBA for almost 20 years.
According to STATS LLC, the most recent time before Friday that there was a game between two teams that were carrying at least 12- and eight-game winning streaks was Dec. 3, 1993, when Atlanta (which had won nine straight) beat Houston (which had won 15 straight).
In fact, the Heat-Grizzlies game was just the eighth in NBA history pitting two teams with active winning streaks of at least eight in a row.
Want more significance? Spoelstra and Hollins were announced earlier in the day as the Eastern and Western Conference coaches of the month, respectively. And news came just before tipoff that James was picked yet again as the East's player of the month, making him 4 for 4 in that department this season.
"Just a residual of team success," Spoelstra said.
Added Hollins: "I'm the head coach and I get the credit and I get the blame, but those guys have been playing extremely well ... coming together with all the turmoil and all the chaos that we've had."
So of course, in a game between the NBA's two hottest teams, the start was ice cold. The teams combined to miss 23 of their first 32 shots.
And for James, things were downright frigid.
After the best shooting month of his career - the three-time MVP made 64 percent of his shots in February, the best month of any NBA player with 200 attempts since Kareem Abdul-Jabbar shot 65 percent in March 1983 - James' run in March started in a decidedly different manner.
James made a 3-pointer on his first attempt of the night, then missed his next eight tries.
"You won't see that happening too many times," Wade said. "It was great that on a night where he didn't have it going offensively, he had trust in his guys and didn't force up 20-odd shots. He played to pass and he still was aggressive. We'll take it. We'll take it, him getting those numbers and us getting the win."
NOTES: Battier has at least one 3-pointer in 14 straight games, the fourth-best such streak of his career. ... Miami is at New York on Sunday, facing a Knicks team that has already beaten the Heat twice - by 20 points each time. "Our guys will look forward to playing this game," Spoelstra said.

Terminal Server with failover :Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
I would appreciate if anyone can help setting up the following -
Install Terminal Server (LTSP5) on Ubuntu 8.04 x64 (or debian 4) on two identical physical servers so that if one fails the other continues to service the thin clients.
Installation of Ubuntu 8.04 with LTSP5 (or debian) on one server is not a problem. The idea is to have real-time redundancy should one fail. Earlier, we would have something called mirror servers (Novell Netware 3.x and 4x) whereby the two servers were always in identical 'state'.
First question: Is this possible now?
Second: Does this require specific hardware / software? (Netware did)
Third: Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.
It is possible .................................................. ..................... in time

December 20, 2014
Kingston, Roane County (WVLT) - Prosecutors have charged a man with second degree murder after police say he shot two men, killing one of them.
Police say Stanley Brown shot and killed Tommy Morrell at a home in Midtown Sunday night.
They say he also shot and injured Charles Ward.
He was taken to U.T. Medical Center by Lifestar and he's since been discharged.
A short time later, a state trooper pulled Brown over on I-40 in Cumberland County for a traffic violation.
It was the same time Roane County Dispatchers issued a bulletin for him.
Police say they found the gun used in the shootings in the car.
Investigators say Brown knew the two victims but it's not clear why the shootings occurred.

Using Linux at Lectra-Systèmes
The marker maker must optimise the material use, i.e., the piece of fabric called width, depending on the list of pieces given by the pattern maker. The quality of the work of a marker maker is expressed in the efficiency of a marker, which corresponds to the material quantity used in relation to the material loss. A good marker has an average efficiency of 85%, meaning 15% of the material is lost. A gain of a few tenths of a percent in production can have important economic consequences when it concerns costly materials like leather and high quality fabrics.
The Diamino software working on Linux/PC has a semiautomatic marker, making work easier for the marker maker as it facilitates positioning the piece. It also has a new automatic marking module (which marks all the pieces on the width without any manual intervention), the performance of which today is nearing 2% of that of a professional marker.
With the current PC architecture, it is now possible to obtain such a result at a very attractive price, whereas only a few years ago, the existence of an efficient module for the automatic marker was impossible due to material costs.
Figure 6 shows the evolution of the automatic marker making performances depending on the architecture used (time in seconds). The old Lectra X400 and X410 computers are based on the 68030 and 68040 processors operating under System V R4. The three PCs—DX2/66, Pentium75, Pentium120—used Linux kernel version 1.2.13.
Figure 6. Relative Performance of Automatic Marker Software on Various Platforms (time in seconds)
The cut of the pieces can be done by hand or with a cutting machine, which has a better turnover advantage. In some cases, one does not cut the pieces, but just plots the shapes on a paper support to give to the sub-contractor.
The previous range of products from Lectra required the purchase of a computer per plotter or cutter, as the MILOS operating system of the computers was mono-task; in other words, the plotters and cutters were run by serial channel.
The new VigiPrint software developed under Linux controls about ten plotters simultaneously, giving a cost savings that should not be ignored when considering the configuration, together with much more facility in controlling the plot by managing the plotters on the same screen. The number of cutters managed by the software is limited to only one for safety reasons—the operator must be attentive to any blade break or other anomaly. The cut is made either with a blade (most common), a high pressure water jet (2000 bars), or a laser beam.
The Lectra suite of software, MasterLink and StyleBinder, enables managing all the data manipulated by the previous trades. In this way, it is possible for a given product to define the production follow-up folders which are filed in the relational databases. These databases make it possible to file various elements of a previous collection and re-use them in a current collection.
Below is a screen from the StyleBinder software under Linux.
The main problem is the integration of new peripherals, since the PC world is literally in the hands of Microsoft. Some peripheral manufacturers, mainly small manufacturers, are attentive to the Linux evolution and collaborate easily when designing drivers. The large companies are much more difficult to convince, and they often hide behind the imperatives of "marketing strategy", refusing to supply the information required. Generally they refuse to accept any solution other than Microsoft, especially when it concerns technical support, since the development teams are rarely directly accessible in such structures.
However, the problems encountered are limited in number:
The MATROX Millennium board which was not supported by XFree86 because MATROX requires a non-disclosure agreement before they will release the technical information required. This situation is a hindrance for us, since the Lectra applications use specific peripherals, e.g., graphic tablets, miniature keyboards, ultrasound pens, which mean the X server must be altered to manage the "input extensions". Our choice is therefore limited to boards based on S3 circuitry, like Diamond and #9.
Lots of storage peripherals connected via a parallel port can't be used with Linux, as each port is unique to each manufacturer and the information and protocol used are extremely difficult to obtain. Therefore, we use SCSI peripherals and internal drives on floppy port (ftape).
The Linux installation on the PC Notebook is sometimes difficult due to the special graphic circuits not supported by XFree86.
Other subjects have caused us, and in some cases are sometimes still causing us, a few worries:
The absence (at the moment) of a Microsoft Windows emulator at a professional level is a serious problem since our customers sometimes need to use documents from MS Windows to integrate them into our applications. The next software release of this type will be a boost for the generalisation of Linux as a desktop solution.
The swap management of Linux 1.2.13 does not seem quite as good as some other versions of Unix (such as SunOS-4.1.3). It appears the swap operating on Linux 2.0 has improved greatly.
The Lectra environment uses the SCSI interface intensively (for some top-of-the-line printers and scanners), and we have corrected a few bugs in the Linux SCSI driver. The corrections forwarded to the Linux developers seem to be integrated in the 2.0 kernel.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Back For More, Part Two The Doctor froze. "A new mind"? So what about...
"The drums...?"
"That's the best part; they're gone. Vanished. Eradicated. Exorcised. Poof. For the first time in a long time, I'm me again, Doctor."
A stunned silence filled the air. Then the Doctor grinned. It wasn't manic, it wasn't triumphant, it wasn't even a mask to hide behind; he was beaming in pure unadulterated joy, something the Master hadn't seen on his face in centuries.
"Master, that's fantastic! You can come with me! You're free! You're alive! You're-"
"Joking." Jack's voice cut through the Doctor's good mood like a knife. The two Time Lords turned to him, startled, having for a moment completely forgotten he was there (a difficult task, considering that their species had a natural aversion so strong to Facts like him that even the Doctor flinched sometimes). "Doctor, from what you've told me about those drums
Back For More, Part One Captain Jack Harkness' jaw clenched painfully as he glared at Torchwood's newest prisoner, who smiled leeringly back from the monitor in front of him. He'd been standing like that, hands cuffed together in front of him, since the minute he woke up almost half an hour ago. Not a single team member was allowed to speak with him, and none of them particularly wanted to try, anyways. Every fiber of Jack's being was screaming in rage: the monster below should not be here, by all natural laws he should be dead. Then again, thought Jack with a grimace, so should he, but his immortality had been an accident, something he never would have asked for. This man, on the other hand...Back For More, Part One3 years ago in Introductions & Chapters More Like This
"How did he find us?" he asked Gwen in a clipped tone. She glanced uncomfortably between Jack and the screen before answering.
"He just sort of, well, showed up. In the main office upstairs. He seems to think you know how to get in touch with the Doctor..."

EVIL/BAD/TRAITOR/PARADOX/PAIN/OUT! Her voice thundered inside the Time Lords' skulls while the Doctor tried to calm her down enough to explain the situation.
"Easy girl, easy. I know this looks bad, but he's not going to hurt you-"
KILL/MY THIEF/HURTS/BLOOD/BLUE/GOLD! The two men looked at each other- even the Doctor was confused by this statement: "kill" was obvious- the Tardis still hadn't forgiven the Master for turning her into a Paradox Machine technically two years previously, and "My Thief" referred to the Doctor himself, she'd been calling him that since the first time he'd ever touched her console. But the rest?
"It's okay, I'm safe, he's not going to hurt me either. He's healing, and I'll be taking care of him- nothing's going to happen to either of us." The voice insi
ChangesThe Doctor stepped out of the TARDIS door, face in a wide grin, excitement radiating from him as he turned to take in his surroundings. Even after 900 odd years of travelling the universe in a Police box, it never got old. The prospect of a new world, with new people, customs, friends, enemies, threats, and everything was still as exciting to him as the day he'd first set foot on an alien world all those years ago. Back when he'd still been Theta Sigma, a mere student at the academy on Gallifrey, ignorant and naïve. Back when there'd still been a Gallifrey. Back before... Well it didn't do to dwell on that. He couldn't change it... But back when he and Koschei had caused havoc at every turn. He grinned, turning back to the TARDIS to watch the black-clad figure step out. Well, perhaps things weren't quite so different after all...Changes3 years ago in Sci-Fi More Like This
Back For More, Part Four The Tandets led the two Time Lords through the thick jungle, stopping occasionally to point out pitfalls and rope-snares that had recently been reset; this was obviously the tribe's hunting party. While the Doctor smiled happily like a child on a class field trip, the Master brooded silently. He remembered dealing with these people before, and despite their lack of modern technology the Tandets were a warrior race to be reckoned with. It was part of what had drawn him to them in the first place, all those years ago.Back For More, Part Four3 years ago in Short Stories More Like This
At last the group reached a clearing. Zuertenu gave a call, and what sounded like ten or so cheerful voices answered. They walked forwards into what appeared to be the center of the village. A green river could be seen gurgling through on one side, four-armed Tandet women busily washing clothes, combing hair, bathing, and chasing after their screaming children. The Master's jaw clenched- if he lost control here, he could wipe out every si
If I Told Him... We live in a world of opposites. If I told him to stay, I knew he would leave. If I told him to go, he would come, if not just to spite me. If I told him to eat, he'd say he'd rather starve. If I told him to get his own bloody sandwich, I knew he'd want room service. If I told him to stay out of trouble, he'd build a new death ray with chewing gum, a vacuum cleaner, a water glass and a few paperclips. If I told him we needed to turn back around towards the enemy fleet and save the other prisoners RIGHT NOW, he'd laugh and hold me back. If I told him to swim with me, he'd complain until I left him alone. If I told him to get out so we could go somewhere, he'd smirk and drag me in with him. If I told him to let me help him, he'd lock himself away somewhere until I stopped searching for him. If I told him he'd rejected my help enough times and that I wasn't going to play this game anymore, he'd get down on his knees and beg me to make the pain go away.

Fixing the Chameleon CircuitThe Doctor grinned. This would be his first trip since he'd fixed the Chameleon circuit in his TARDIS. Time to see if it actually worked, after all it would only be when he landed somewhere that it would change. If he'd done it right, that was. And if it did, then he would have the bonus of showing it off to his best enemy who he was currently tracking down, having heard rumours of him causing havoc. On Earth. It was almost always on Earth. If he didn't know better, he'd say he was doing it on purpose, to get his attention. And if it hadn't worked... Well it would be no different to usual! After all, he wouldn't have to tell him he'd tried to fix the old girl and failed. At least he'd persuaded his companions to have a few days rest on some little out of the way planet. It had given him a chance to work uninterrupted for a start. Although he really did hope they wouldn't get into too much trouble. They were all far too good at that. Almost as good at it as him.

Jealousy and snoggingIt had been a perfectly normal and pleasant day for the two of them, the Master had thought as he'd walked hand in hand with the Doctor through some little back alley. He'd taken his Doctor to a little planet to visit - it was all his arrangements, and he hadn't even let him see the co-ordinates of where they were going. It had all been going so well until a familiar figure came into view. Captain Jack Harkness... Of all of the Doctor's past companions they had to bump into, Jack had to be the worse, because if there was one thing the Master absolutely hated, it was someone else flirting with his Doctor, and if there was one thing Captain Jack Harkness could never resist, it was flirting with anything that moved, especially the Doctor. And today was no different. Practically everything that infuriating freak said was flirting, although the Doctor seemed oblivious to it as usual, which was a good thing, he supposed, as it meant he was more or less impervious to it tJealousy and snogging2 years ago in Sci-Fi More Like This

You were going down in flames, but I couldn't stay away, I was a moth drawn to the brightness of your fiery demise. I worshiped your radiance, lived in the warmth of your strength, because it's true what the humans say, isn't it? We always burn brightest just before we go into the cold dark. I should have known that it was coming, that you'd be gone from me once again. But I ignored it, I always ignore it.
I was so wrapped up in your spectacle, in you being who you are, burning through your unnatural life, that I forgot that my own was doomed to come to an end. You always could make me forget.

In my head I hear drums. One-two-three-four! One-two-three-four! They never stop, and only quiet when he is near. My Angel, always watching over me. My God, my faith in him sturdier than a thousand walled fortresses. My Storm, washing away my fears, my darker thoughts. His voice is little more than a murmur compared to the endless call to war inside my head, but it is so much stronger; constant and reassuring, like waves crashing on a shore. He has his own demons, his own frailties, and sometimes they break through his calm disguise, shattering his self-control. His own form of madness, that of anguish and regret and loss instead of blood-lust and rage. One desperate to help and heal, the other so determined to destroy. Two different and opposing forms of madness and chaos, yet somehow his always drowns out mine. And he is also mine. He tells me so, every day, so I know it must be true; he never could lie to me. Not to his Master.

"You're too human,"
The Master is staring at him with discontent from the corner of the TARDIS, haunted eyes trailing the Doctor at all times. The comment was meant to sting but the Doctor welcomes it instead. "Well I have happened to hang around quite a few of them in my life time y'know," he states, twirling at a knob on the console.
The Master wrinkles his nose in distaste as he follows the Doctor's fingers. "It's annoying though,"
The Doctor senses the challenge coming on, and wiggles his eyebrow as a grin appears on his face as he realizes this. "Oh? How so?"
The Master leans his head back against the wall of the TARDIS and stares up at the ceiling, as though waiting for an answer to appear in front of his eyes. "Well," he starts. "For one thing, you're much too emotional."
"What, and that's annoying? What's wrong with a

"Use my name."
The Doctor stared at his TARDIS, eyes wide. "Master," he breathed.
Thumpthump thumpthump. The Doctor listened to his hearts beating, the only sound he could hear other than his steady breathing. He lay on the ground, the metal grillwork of the TARDIS floor pressing against the side of his face. Thumpthump thumpthump. The Master's face appeared before his closed eyes, and the Doctor felt both heartbeats speed up a little. The sound of drums, the beat stuck in the Master's head, so similar to the simple beating of a Time Lord's twin hearts.
The Doctor frowned, keeping his eyes closed and mentally scolding himself. This wasn't the time for letting his thoughts get muddled up; that was how he had gotten into this mess. First things first, he thought, quick inventory. Head? It hurt a little, and he probably was going to have a diamond pattern on the right side for a while, but otherwise fine. Neck and shoulders: fine. Arms: o

A prophesy, a challenge, and another journey to take alone. He's done so much for the universe; why does it always feel the need to take everything and everyone he knows and loves away from him? It's not fair...
~You're going to regenerate, a new man swaggers away. No time for games, tonight we fight for the fate of all mankind.~
"I could do so much more..."
~The Time Lords returning, the Earth will be burning, the last White Point Star is a trap for the Master. The Doctor is dying, the Doctor is dying! The Doctor is dying, the Doctor is dying!~
"I don't want to go." He says it aloud, though no one is in the room to hear him. "I don't want to go!" He says it again, with more finality. Forget the prophesy; damn it, he's not going anywhere!

"No buts, there is no way that you are bringing one home with you!"
"But they're so beautiful and amazing and... and..."

"But it would only be a little one... I'd TARDIS train it and everything!"
"Yeah, and give it more attention than me no doubt..."
"Oh, don't look at me like that, you know I'd never give anything more attention than you..."

Expected a bit better, but not bad

I picked these up over the holidays due to the 1/2 price sale. The bibs are made of top quality material and look great. For comparison sake, I'm 6'1" (34" inseam) and 165lbs. I ordered a Large which is about right. The downside for me is the legs aren't as long as I typically like and the lack of grippers make the shorts 'ride up'. The shoulder straps are also a bit loose. All in all, they are not bad for the price but there are better shorts out there.
