text: The long awaited Lenovo IdeaPad Y650 laptop is finally starting to ship to its soon to be proud owners. Announced at CES 2009 as the world's thinest 16-inch entertainment notebook, IdeaPad Y650 combines almost everything you'd want to have in a notebook - extremely thin and clean design with carbon fiber parts, light weight, big screen, powerful hardware and fairly low cost. Back to the interesting part, IdeaPad Y650 comes with two Intel Core 2 Duo CPU options - the 2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo P8700 or the 2.40GHz P8600, both feature 1066MHz FSB and 3MB L2 cache. Video options include either an integrated Intel X4500 graphics or an NVIDIA GeForce G 105M GPU with 256MB dedicated RAM. Remaining specs include 3GB DDR3-8500 RAM (up to 4GB), 320GB 5400 rpm HDD, DVD writer, multi-touch track pad, Bluetooth, integrated 1.3MP webcam and a 6 Cell Lithium-Ion battery. All different versions ship with the same 16.0-inch TFT widescreen display with LED backlight, ambient light sensor and a 1366x768 maximum resolution. It is also worth mentioning that the sound system in IdeaPad Y650 is provided by JBL, featuring 2x 2W JBL speakers. The Lenvo IdeaPad Y650 is available now directly from Lenovo, with a starting price of $1,299. Source: Engadget

- ARUP Connect
ATOP is an analytical service ARUP Laboratories has offered its clients since 1998. This service assists health care organizations in improving laboratory-test utilization. The analysis identifies potential over-, under-, and misuse of individual laboratory tests. An ATOP report assesses the clinical and economic impact of suboptimal test ordering. Laboratory professionals can share the insights gained from this information with their clinicians to improve patient care, increase efficiency, and reduce costs.
Benefits of ATOP
Sample from an ATOP Report
Of the 585 free PSA assays ordered, 387, or 66.2 percent, were not consistent with the recommended guidelines. If ordering physicians adhered more strictly to the guidelines, a potential savings of $9,288 could be realized, in addition to savings in potential downstream health care costs, such as unnecessary biopsies.
ARUP Consult®
ATOP reports identify where clients' providers over-, under-, or misorder laboratory testing. ARUP has developed another tool, ARUP Consult, The Physician's Guide to Laboratory Test Ordering and Selection, to help educate physicians. In addition to providing convenient access to laboratory testing guidance and interpretation, this evidence-based tool helps physicians correct the inappropriate ordering behaviors identified in an ATOP report. Content is updated every eight weeks, is available at no cost, and is accessible in both Web and PDA formats. Visit www.arupconsult.com to find out more.

Wistron W1-Tablet found in display booth, due to run MeeGo on a Moorestown chipset
So it may not be in its final official build yet, but that hasn't stopped the folks from Wistron creating the W1-Tablet. Interestingly enough this bad boy actually does run a build of MeeGo, however, something that's piqued our interest substantially is that its rumoured to run on Intel's Moorestown chipset — you know, the one that was due to be released in the recently scrapped LG-GW990. Whilst this device hasn't been released to the public yet, expect to see some more footage of it over the next couple of days (especially tomorrow since it'll be featured at the Ultra-Mobility event). In the meantime we've got a video of it after the break.

Facebook took its sweet-ass time in allowing members to edit comments made on status updates, and even then, the feature was very sparse and limited.
A while back, Facebook introduced the option to edit a comment immediately after posting, in the event of a typo or premature send — which often results in a half-comment, or a poorly considered quip.
But like many features, Facebook's comment editing function was a bit limited and the parameters unclear — it seemed that if someone posted something else immediately after you, or after an undefined period of time, the option to edit your comment disappeared.
It's a first world problem to be sure, but it was a bit of a pain if you spent a long time composing a well-considered and thoughtful reply only to be unable to edit without deleting or reposting your words. In message board and forum etiquette, deleting entire posts is considered poor form, and on Facebook, it forces you to repost out of context if other comments have been added.
But our long national nightmare is now over — Facebook's editing feature for all comments is going live. What Facebook comment editing won't do, however, is cover your tracks. So if you post an ill thought-out rant or insensitive assessment, and alter your words, Facebook is going to brand your comment with a scarlet "edited."
"When someone clicks on the word, a window will pop up showing your original comment and the edited version — so don't think you will be able to get away with making controversial comments and then changing your mind. This feature is also more likely to be useful to correct typos."
As the post points out, however, Facebook's editing function will be a definite boon to those of us with autocorrect-happy smartphones.

Look, there's a difference between being a jerk and common sense.
Being a jerk is PARKING in disabled parking spot.
Being a jerk is also stopping or standing your car (i.e. waiting for someone) in a disabled parking spot when there are people with a legal right to park their car in the spot waiting for it.
BUT... if there's no one waiting for a disabled parking spot (... even more so if there are several such spots available, and several are empty), then it's flat-out stupid to suggest that people shouldn't be allowed to load/unload their passengers in one of these spots. It's called common sense.
I know parking enforcement officers aren't trained to tell the difference, and I also get that their own salary has to get paid - so from a revenue perspective it makes sense to handle every case the same way.
But let's be clear... people who just stop to load or unload in one of these spots, and who are NOT inconveniencing a disabled person, shouldn't be ticketed.
ALSO, for the record, I can't find any record in either WA state law, or the BI Municipal code, that supports the view that stopping your car - or even standing (idling, waiting) - in such a spot is illegal. Some states clearly state that you can't PARK, STAND, STOP - basically "do not enter" - a disabled parking spot without a permit. But from what I've been able to find (RCW 46.19.050 s.4 and BI Municipal Code 10.08.050), it's only illegal to PARK in such a spot, suggesting standing or stopping in one is actually OK.
I'm trying to make the case that people should have common sense, and show courtesy to disabled people who have every right to use a disabled spot - while at the same time, not being so damn rigid on the application of rules to an illogical and stupid extent.
The problem too many people have, is they've come to rely on steadfast, rigid acceptance and adoption of law as a substitute for common sense. Overly prescriptive laws actually encourage people to stop thinking about what's right, and to go around like drones memorizing some rule book, without any consideration for what MAKES SENSE. Very sad we should have to tell people not to park in a disabled parking spot. Equally sad we've lost our ability to understand WHY it's illegal to do so, and to understand that sometimes, it's OK to "break the rules" as their intended beneficiary is not being inconvenienced.
When driving down long, open-air country roads (think eastern WA or MT) with no one else in sight I often like to drive on the wrong side of the road, because I know it annoys my wife, who wants me to stay "legal". "Honey, the cows don't mind. Really, they don't".

Sergio is KGBT's Interactive Manager and a reporter for VALLEYCENTRAL.COM.
A Starr County man has used a trust to claim a $4 million dollar lotto ticket that was sold at a convenience store in Rio Grande City.
Texas Lottery officials confirmed on Friday morning that the March 20th Lotto Texas ticket was claimed by the DEME Revocable Trust.
The trust's ticket was the only ticket sold to match all six numbers drawn: 4 – 10 – 35 – 38 – 41 – 49.
The winning ticket was sold for the lotto's annual payment option meaning that the prize will be paid in 25 annual installments.
Records list Starr County resident Daniel Enrique Escamilla as the trustee.
"When they told me someone won the lotto with their own numbers at the store where I buy my tickets, I started to think maybe it was me," Escamilla told lottery officials. "We are very thankful for our good fortune."
The winning ticket was sold at a Stripes convenience store at 2798 West Highway 83 in Rio Grande City.
The store is eligible for a $40,000 retailer bonus for selling the winning ticket.

Budget address we're not likely to hear
And now for the budget address Gov. Corbett won't give today to a joint session of the Legislature:
"Speaker Smith, President Pro Tempore Scarnati, Lt. Gov. Cawley, members of the General Assembly, distinguished Cabinet, fellow citizens.
"These past two years, I've sought to govern mindful of the words of our founder William Penn, who once said, "Avoid popularity; it has many snares and no real benefit."
"I believe I have been successful.
"My approval rating is in the tank, especially with women. And less than a majority of Republicans think I deserve a second term.
"Our founder would be pleased.
"With you, too; the only thing more unpopular than me is you.
"So there's much to do.
"As you know, I won this office by putting your leaders in prison and by promising jobs, transparency in government, less spending and no new taxes.
"Let's look where we are today.
"We've created jobs.
"For lawyers defending lawmakers charged with corruption.
"For lawyers continuing to litigate our nonpartisan, nothing-to-do-with-keeping-the-Philly-vote-down voter-ID law.
"For lawyers working my suit against the NCAA, which has nothing to do with me trying to get back in the graces of members of Nittany Nation, who think I fouled up that child-sex thing.
"For lawyers involved in our lottery-privatization contract with the Brits, which may or may not be legal depending on our Democrat attorney general and which may or may not be paid for depending on our Democrat state treasurer.
"(Feel free, by the way, to scrutinize their budgets.)
"For lawyers fighting the rejection of multiple right-to-know requests made by nosy journalists and citizens; and for lawyers to work upcoming lawsuits over cutting public pensions or tossing liquor-store workers out into our streets.
"We're spending less.
"By not fixing roads and bridges, but then driving is better in winter since the potholes fill with snow.
"And we are not raising taxes.
"Yes, local school districts or municipalities might be. But that's only because they're not doing more with the less we're giving them.
"And even if the folks who sell gasoline decide to ding consumers with my increase in the wholesale-gas tax, remember that is not a tax from me. It's a tax from folks who sell gasoline.
"So. Moving on.
"Two years ago I said let's build a new Pennsylvania.
"One way to do that is to get rid of silly laws governing the old Pennsylvania.
"For example: In the old Pennsylvania, you couldn't discharge a gun, cannon or any explosive weapon at a wedding. True story.
"Now, thanks to my extending the Castle Doctrine, you can discharge weapons anywhere any time you feel threatened. Like maybe at a wedding. Just sayin'.
"There's also a law in the old Pennsylvania that all liquor stores must be run by the state. But now, since I plan to allow anyone with money to run a liquor store, that silly law will be gone.
"And, ladies and gentlemen, combining more liquor stores with less restriction on discharging weapons will end all assertions that Pennsylvania's a boring place.
"Things are happening here.
"In my first budget address in 2011, I noted that Pennsylvania ranked as the 10th-worst state in terms of state and local taxes.
"I can report that, according to the nonprofit, nonpartisan Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, we are today the eighth-worst state.
"We're on the move. Let's move some more.
"Let's get to work cutting spending on pensions (not yours, of course), on selling state stores, fixing bridges and expanding gaming.
"These are stone-cold winners for Pennsylvania, my re-election chances and yours.
"So let's be willing to risk together the "many snares" that come with popularity.
"Thank you. And go Penn State!"

Pitch 1: Start by climbing the white rock leading to the varnished thin corner above. Continue up through a section of finger locks and stemming. The corner will begin to open up into hands and eventually an easy chimney. Solution pockets on the side walls keep the grade to a very pleasent 5.9. At the top of the chimney pull into a large "hole". This is a very unique feature and certainly adds to the route quality. There are 2 ways to exit the hole. The first is to squeeze out the obvious opening near the middle of the constriction. The second is to climb out the bottom and up the outside. Both options are about the same difficulty. However both options will not be available to everyone...fat kids(like me) will have to use the later. Continue upward via stemming and jamming. The pitch ends at 2 good bolts on the right hand wall. 180ft, 5.9. Pitch 2: Start by continuing up the corner for 20ft until you reach an obvious roof. Undercling and layback out the roof. Continue climbing the nice varnished crack above. Belay at it's top on a large ledge. 160ft, 5.9+. Descent: Traverse the ledge to the west/north west. This is the terrace at the top of the first pitch on Cat in the hat. Rappel CITH with 1 60M rope ...doing 2 rappels. A very good climb.
On the south east corner of the mescalito. This is the large open book corner seen just before turning the corner to the south face.
Single set, nuts to #4 camalot size. Optional #5.
A comment to avoid clutter in the descrpition. It seems that there is very little information out there concerning this route. Even in The newest guidebook there was simply a basic "it's there". This is curious to me because of the high quality climbing we found. I really think that alot of folks will enjoy this moderate and unique route...the "hole" on the first pitch is like nothing I've climbed in Red rock or elsewhere. Also the rock quality is quite good on the route...there is still some questionable rock... but there is also tons of varnish. While on this climb I wondered about the name...does it have to do with the solution pockets that resemble a Wasp nest? Certianly interesting formations! Have fun! josh

Dirty Dining: The Daily Egg
Darcy Spears
Photo: Video by ktnv.com
Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) -- Week-old pork sausage and a potentially hazardous salad bar. Sounds like a typical Dirty Dining, but the restaurant owner tells Darcy Spears it's the Health District who's really playing dirty.
Dirty Dining goes to brunch this week at The Daily Egg on South Decatur near Hacienda.
"I wasn't really prepared for this."
Not prepared for Contact 13 to show up asking questions. But Manager Emigdio "Ito" Martinez-Pineda says he was prepared to get dinged by the Health District.
"Seems like they already have a pattern--what they gonna do--no matter what you do, that's what they end up doing."
The Daily Egg got a 32-demerit "C" grade on their September 6th inspection, which comes with a $477 fee.
"You pay it, then they come to re-inspect it, you get another A and they leave you alone."
Ito has only been operating the restaurant for a few months and got an "A" grade just three months ago in June.
He says others in the industry warned him that as a new operator, he should expect extra scrutiny.
"Me talking to some of my friends--and they own restaurants--they say that this is a strategy that the City uses to bring more money to their City."
He's not the first to say that, but the Health District always denies it.
Ito believes his inspection proves his point.
"I think what she wrote us, they was minor mistakes."
Inspectors say the chef put on gloves without washing her hands.
They couldn't find a thermometer in the milk cooler.
Tongs were hanging on an oven handle and the cutting board was no longer smooth and easily cleanable.
But there were some more serious violations.
Darcy: One of the things that kind of stood out to us was week-old pork sausage, which is not a good thing, as you know.
Ito: That was a little ridiculous in the way of how we label it. There was one minor mistake.
He claims the sausage was really only two days old and someone mis-labeled it.
Inspectors also found potentially hazardous foods like shredded cheese, cut lettuce, tomatoes and eggs at unsafe temperatures in the salad bar.
"And we close it," Martinez-Pineda says. "We closed our salad bar. And I confront that right away. Said, you know what? It will be a little inconvenience. So we just take it down."
There was also improper cooling of cooked foods, including home fries and soup.
"We took it down from the freezer and we throw it away and we make totally fresh to make sure that our customers are totally safe."
An open employee drink on top of a cooler next to food products and an improper sugar scoop rounded out The Daily Egg's inspection.
"It is hard to maintain it with all these rules. Like the economy is... we had to maintain an extra employee just to maintain with all these rules and it's hurting the small businesses like me."
The Daily Egg still has a "C" grade.
They're scheduled for re-inspection next week, and are confident they'll go back to an "A."

Amid a vibrant delta, jarring memories persist
By ROBERT STOKES
May 15, 2010
EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the fourth in an occasional series about a
reporter who covered the Vietnam War and returned this year for a
journalists' reunion. Robert Stokes filed stories to the Asbury Park
Press during 1967 from Vietnam, after which he joined the staff of
Newsweek magazine. He later joined Life magazine, where he served as
an associate editor and covered the Attica prison riot in 1971.
Stokes later rejoined the Asbury Park Press as a reporter and
columnist, winning several awards for investigative reporting and
feature writing.
In l967 and 1968, the only way to reach the main towns and villages
in the fertile Mekong River Delta was by helicopter with a gunship escort.
And even then, the chopper you hitched a ride on was often a target
for Viet Cong snipers armed with .51-caliber machine guns hidden in
the dense jungle canopy along the canals and rivers that cross the region.
More than 40 years later, my return to the delta was considerably
safer in the ultimate comfort of an air-conditioned van and bottles
of ice-cold sparkling water at my beck and call.
It helped that we drove on a brand new, divided two-lane highway
equal to anything built in the U.S. and passed over the shiny, steel
Vinh Long expansion bridge built by Australian engineers in 2001.
Before the bridge, it took several hours for farmers to catch a ferry
to take their produce to market across the Co Chien River. Now, the
trip is measured in minutes, barring traffic jams.
During my time covering the war, I often accompanied U.S. Marines and
soldiers from the 9th Infantry Division wading through leech-infested
delta canals and streams that provided ample ambush opportunity to
the VC. But on this trip, I was a tourist, enjoying the Vinh Long
boat tour, which transported my wife and me to a fascinating,
close-up look at current life on the Mekong River, its various
islands and tributaries.
First stop was the floating market at Cai Be, a bustling water-borne
hubbub of commerce where farmers in large boats sell to smaller
farmers on a wholesale and retail basis. Traders maneuver their boats
agilely, loading coffee, fruit, charcoal and even hot noodles from
one boat to another. Farther up the river, we found various water
taxis, houses on stilts, and boat builders still constructing small
fishing boats the old fashioned way with local wood, nails and caulk.
But as we made our way up the river to An Binh Island to see a
successful orchard grower and have a wonderful Vietnamese lunch, my
mind wandered back to some scary forays with Navy Swift Boat crews
coming under fire from Viet Cong machine gunners on both sides of the
Mekong River. Cai Be lies a few miles west of the historically
significant hamlet of Ap Bac, the site of a battle in l963 that
resulted in the first major victory of the Viet Cong over the South
Vietnamese Army.
Nearby are several small islands in the Mekong River, the most
notable among them Phoenix Island, the home of the eccentric Coconut
Monk, a man who took a vow of silence in l948 as a protest of war in
his native Vietnam. Meditating in a coconut tree for days and weeks
on end, the man, Nguyen Thanh Nam, often was jailed by the government
in power for his criticism of its policies.
Following the victory by the Communists in l975, the government in
Hanoi curtailed the monk's access to the western media, and his
slightly bizarre anti-war efforts ended. He reportedly died in prison in 1990.
While my tour of the Mekong River Delta this time around was more
sedate and uneventful, I still have some painful memories of this
part of Vietnam that are hard to erase from my psyche. One of my
first combat experiences was with Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 9th
Marines, in Kien Hoa Province on a joint operation called Deckhouse Five.
I was awakened in the Command Post of B Company about 2 a.m. on the
third night of the operation when I heard a frantic call for an
emergency medevac for a young Marine with a sucking chest wound and
internal bleeding. It was not the million-dollar wound that
servicemen pray for one that will send you home, never to return.
Instead it was a tragic mistake of one Marine accidentally shooting a
fellow Marine returning from a night patrol, a case of "friendly
fire" that happens in war more frequently than commanders want to
admit. Whoever created that term has clearly never been on the
business end of it.
Reviewing my notes from that experience, I want the reader to share
in some way the same emotions I felt listening to the company radio
transmissions that night between the Bravo Company Marine radioman
and the Navy corpsman trying desperately to save the 20-year-old
Marine's life.
After the radio echoed the position of the landing zone for the
medevac chopper, the corpsman's voice came again, this time with a
tone of urgency:
"Round entered through chest, exited upper back; request all possible
speed on medevac."
"Roger Bravo Papa Two. Will request all possible speed for medevac, out."
"Bravo Papa Two, this is Bravo, Bravo, request serial number of
Whiskey India Alpha (international phonetic language for WIA, wounded
in action), also if LZ secure and type of smoke to be used for
marking LZ, over."
"LZ secure, yellow smoke. Do you have approximate ETA (expected time
of arrival) of medevac?, over."
"Negative at this time, will keep you informed as soon as ETA available."
"Roger, Bravo Bravo. Try to speed up that medevac, out."
In the bamboo hut where I sat, several Marines nervously cleared
their throats as they listened to the radio traffic. Bravo Papa Two
came back on the radio, this time with a tone of desperation.
"Bravo, Bravo, this is Bravo Papa Two, this man has a sucking chest
wound, where's that God-damned medevac?"
"Bravo Papa Two, this is Bravo Bravo, medevac on its way to your
location, medic aboard, stand by."
"Roger, Bravo Bravo, Bravo Papa Two standing by, out."
Approximately 90 minutes after the initial call for a medevac, a Navy
corpsman and a few of PFC Don Roberson's buddies loaded him aboard a
Marine chopper for a race against death. He lost the race. He died
before the chopper touched down on the rolling deck of the Iwo Jima,
the amphibious assault ship that was home to the helicopter.
The hard truth is that memories like this never go away, regardless
of how much change has come to Vietnam.
Vietnam's "Disneyland': Bloody tunnels now tourist trap
By ROBERT STOKES
May 8, 2010
CU CHI, VIETNAM Part Vietnamese Disneyland and part crude
propaganda, the Cu Chi Tunnels, 180 miles of intricate underground
complexes that housed the North Vietnamese military leadership of the
war in the south, is now the country's top tourist attraction.
Built starting in the early l960s, the maze of interlocking
passageways 23 miles northwest of Ho Chi Minh City, served as a
subterranean command post for launching the assault on the U.S.
Embassy in Saigon during the Tet Offensive in January 1968 and the
capture of the South Vietnamese capital on April 30, 1975.
The main series of tunnels, ranging from a few feet below the surface
to 30 feet deep, were built directly under the command center of the
25th Infantry Division, which never located the main tunnel complex
during the eight years the division fought there. The 25th Division
provided special teams of soldiers known as "tunnel rats" armed
with only a .45 caliber pistol and a flashlight to go down into the
tunnels to find and ferret out the Viet Cong who were deployed there.
There are two different tunnel systems here. The one at Ben Dinh
village, nine miles north of Cu Chi, was actually used by the Viet
Cong during the war.
The second set of tunnels at Ben Duoc, a few miles away, was built
exclusively for tourists and includes a shooting gallery where they
can get their kicks firing an AK-47 or M-16. Bullets cost $1.50 each.
I wondered what those GI tunnel rats who died in those dark,
claustrophobic passageways would think about the war they fought
being represented 35 years later as an amusement park spectacular.
The first word that springs to mind is grotesque.
The guided tour began in a briefing room where illuminated maps and
charts displayed the extent of the tunnel network. The briefer was a
former Viet Cong officer named Hynh Van Chia, who lost his right arm
in the war. The most striking information Hynh offered the group of
journalists in the audience was the Viet Cong casualty figures for
those who fought in the tunnels: out of 18,000 soldiers, 12,000
"sacrificed their lives" in the effort and another 3,000 were disabled.
Then came a 10-minute audio-visual presentation that represented
American soldiers as a modern breed of Mongol warriors destroying
everything that lived or moved.
In contrast, the brave Viet Cong were described as peace-loving folks
more interested in helping to grow flowers and help elderly folks
cross a busy street than guerrilla fighters who gave no quarter when
it came to killing civilians or GIs.
I walked out after about five minutes.
Following the propaganda film, visitors were given a hands-on
experience of going down into the tunnels and duck-walking a few feet
from one trap door to another.
The tunnel of horrors aspect included mock booby traps that included
bamboo pungi stakes in a pit and metal spikes intended to wound GIs.
As we walked from one trap door to another, lifelike mannequins
representing women guerrilla fighters, were placed at strategic
places along the well-worn jungle path.
We never did get to the firing range, which was just as well. Perhaps
the tour leaders decided that U.S. journalists who had covered the
war were not exactly the type of tourists interested in that kind of
adolescent experience.
As I walked back to the bus, I remembered a magazine story I had
written about 25th Infantry Division tunnel rats and the bravery and
casualties these troops had sustained.
The story had to do with one of the gutsiest tunnel rats of the 25th
a 19-year-old named Eddie Mann from Georgia. He had been down in
the tunnels for hours on this particular day and had been warned to
stop his search for a back door to this particular series of tunnels.
It was getting dark, and his flashlight was low on battery power.
The last words Mann uttered to his fellow soldiers was, "Hold it,
there's a breeze coming from somewhere. Let me check it out."
The next sound they heard was a blast from an AK-47. An hour later
they recovered Mann's body, shot point blank in the face.
Wherever Eddie Mann is today, he must be shaking his head at how
history has been distorted in a tourist trap known as the Cu Chi Tunnels.
Returning to a conquered city 40 years later
By ROBERT STOKES
May 1, 2010
HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM Despite the myriad changes that have
occurred in this city and the entire country since I left more than
40 years ago, the heat is the one constant reality that has not changed.
It greets you walking out of the air-conditioned new airport complex
like an old friend still nearly 80 degrees Fahrenheit at 7:30 in
the evening; a wet blanket of warm, moist air that reminds you of a
sauna, combined with a thick concoction of air pollution that is
hazardous to your health.
The pollution is another quality of the city that has not changed,
but only grown worse.
It's a mark of free enterprise vitality, despite its Communist leadership.
Hordes of scooters 5 million by one estimate, or one for every two
residents foul the air and create a cacophony of sounds that
vibrates inside the eardrums as our van weaves slowly out of the
airport headed for our downtown hotel.
My wife, Catherine, and I have just traveled 17 1/2 hours, with a
single stop in Hong Kong, to get here. That's a far cry from my first
trip in 1966, when it took 25 hours and six stops to get to what was
then called Saigon.
Before I landed, the events I experienced in those two years seemed
long ago but once back in the place where it all happened, it
seemed like only yesterday.
Moving slowly through the traffic, I am astounded by the commercial
change in the city.
Entire glass structures light up the night with huge, blinking neon
signs advertising everything from high-end Canon cameras to Gucci
shoes and midsized Japanese, European and American autos. It was
another huge change from four decades ago, when there were barely any
streetlights on major streets and Saigon was continually the victim
of power outages.
As we made our way slowly downtown, our Vietnamese driver asked me
when I was here before. I told him, and he laughed.
"I was an NCO (noncommissioned officer) with the South Vietnamese
Army in Pleiku," he said. Then he added, with a smile, "We supported
the U.S. 4th Infantry Division."
The man whom I will identify only by his first name, Thanh served
one month in a re-education camp after the war ended in 1975. Thanh's
more serious penalty was being ordered to live far from his family in
Quang Ngai Province for nearly 10 years.
I wanted to ask him how he liked his life under Communist control,
but because of the recent crackdown on dissidents and human-rights
activists throughout the country, I knew what his answer would be:
economy great, politics "numbah 10."
In 1986, with the introduction of "Doi Moi" meaning a more free and
open way of life economic controls were loosened, free enterprise
encouraged and those who were banished from Ho Chi Minh City to the
countryside were allowed to return.
Since then, Vietnam has become one of the most rapidly developing
countries in Asia. But politically, it remains a rigidly controlled
nation in terms of speech and human rights.
Earlier today, we visited the War Remnants Museum a few blocks from
our hotel. The courtyard was ringed with abandoned U.S. tanks,
helicopters and self-propelled 155 mm artillery as well as armored
personnel carriers all of which brought back memories, both good and bad.
But inside the museum, a banner over the door into one room told me
all I wanted to know about the contents. The banner read: "Historic
Truths About the American War."
It was anything but the truth.
Propaganda, pure and simple: photographs of so-called atrocities
committed by American soldiers and Marines.
In fact, many of the photographs of GIs in combat took me back to the
battles I covered in those years in places like Hill 881, Mutter's
Ridge and Con Thien. Photographs taken by close friends who died
there covering the fighting. Photographers like Dana Stone, who
disappeared in Cambodia and reportedly was executed by the Khmer
Rouge, and Bob Ellison, who died going into Khe Sanh to take some
Marines beer and cigars in repayment for their hospitality during the
Tet offensive.
All of a sudden, I wanted to be anywhere but the museum. We made our
way back to the hotel and decided on a nightcap on the rooftop bar of
the Caravelle Hotel. I remembered how, during the war, we journalists
would sometimes gather at day's end for a beer.
But our conversations would always be interrupted by the streaks of
red and green tracer machine gun bullets lighting up the sky as the
Viet Cong attacked another hamlet, pushing relentlessly closer to
Saigon and an outcome never seriously in doubt.
"What do you remember most about that time?" my wife asked me.
"The surreal aspect of watching those firefights from the rooftop 40

Mblaq invited their closest friends on Friday's episode of 'Idol Manager', in that episode Mir's friend voted him to be #5 among the 5 members.
The show went from showing their abs, to telling stories about the idol's their childhood.
Also attending was a close friend of Mir, when Park Kyung Lim asked, "What was it like to see your friend famous and on TV?" The friend of Mir replied, "He's bad at singing, dancing and I think he's the ugliest in the band." But he didn't stop there he still had more to say about his friend, "Chul Yong is always last. Face is last, singing last, rap is last and everything is last." He turned out to be the hidden card of the episode and left the cast and crew laughing.
Well I couldn't disagree with him more, since when is Mir's face not handsome? and he isn't a bad rapper and he's cute and funny, that's what I think, what do you think?

Ricky Martin defends Madonna
Pop star Ricky Martin has hit out at press for criticizing Madonna's adoption of 13-month-old DAVID BANDA, insisting she's an "exemplary" mother and an inspiration for others thinking of adoption - including him, says The Associated Press.
The Latino singer, who is an ambassador for the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), is desperate to be a dad and can't understand why the MUSIC hitmaker's moves to adopt in Malawi has caused such outrage.
Ricky Martin says, "I know Madonna as a mother, and she's exemplary. The love she gives her kids is a dream, and I know that her heart is big enough to adopt not just one child but to adopt 20." On his own aspirations to adopt, he says, "I don't know when, but right now I am sponsoring three children in India and we have a very beautiful connection."
Madonna and her husband Guy Ritchie were granted interim adoption of David Banda last week.

Phil Klotzbach and William Gray are standing pat.
In an updated outlook released Monday, they continue to call for a significantly busier than normal storm season with 18 named storms, including nine hurricanes, with four of those major.
That's the same forecast the two Colorado State University climatologists released in April. The average season sees 12 named storms, including six hurricanes, three major.
"We continue to foresee a very active 2013 Atlantic hurricane season," they said in a statement. "Given the above-average forecast, we are calling for an above-average probability of a United States and Caribbean major hurricane landfall."
Specifically, Klotzbach and Gray call for a 72 percent chance that at least one major hurricane will strike the U.S. coastline. The average for the last century is 52 percent.
They call for a 48 percent chance that a major hurricane will hit the U.S. East Coast, including the Florida peninsula. The long-term average is 31 percent.
Several forecast teams call for a busy, potentially extremely active season because of warm waters in the Atlantic and low levels of wind shear. Further El Niño, the atmospheric force that suppresses storm formation, is not expected to emerge this year.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts 13 to 20 named storms, including seven to 11 hurricanes, with three to six of those being major.
Meanwhile, the National Hurricane Center is monitoring a disturbance in the Gulf of Mexico, for now saying it has a low chance of developing into a depression or storm over the next two days.
Models are divided, but some aim the system toward the northwest coast of Florida, arriving Thursday or Friday.

Fittingly bizarre shot from the George A. Romero cult curiosity Knightriders (1981), a two-hour, twenty-five minute saga of medieval reenactment...
March 28th @ 2:15 a.m. I was walking across the street with a large group of amazing beautiful friends. I was last in the row as it was one...
The accuracy is astounding.

I had one of these as a kid (I love black light posters & Vampires, and my mom liked head shops… and I'm old). I used to look at it & wish a vampire would take me away in the night. I had a VERY romantic impression of vampire life from all those Hammer films. I just wanted to grow into being Ingrid Pitt.

Regular daily exercise is a very most important step toward a healthier lifestyle, according to Jeff Behar, MS, MBA, a personal trainer and popular health and wellness author based in Los Angeles, California. Even if you are not a gym rat, and not a lover of exercse, there are a few simple things that you can do to increase the amount of physical activity during your day and reap some significant health benefits in the process.
A coffee break after an important meeting or class may be just the thing your brain needs to digest new information and improve memory.
A new study suggests that resting while awake aids in memory consolidation and improves memory recall, much like getting a good night's sleep has been shown to do.
Are you or your partner losing interest in sex? A variety of physiological and psychological factors can impact your libido and put the breaks on your sex-drive. Check out these common psychological and physiological factors that can impact your libido.
Cutting back on sodium and increasing physical activity are not the only ways to improve heart health – a good night's sleep can also help promote cardiovascular health.
