You should probably avoid the OCZ SSD. I believe Anandtech did a breakdown on why they suck (OCZ SSDs, not SSDs in general)
I've now ordered this. So now I'm just rocking with indecision over whether or not to get an SSD for it. With some research, it looks like SSD prices stopped dropping a few months ago, so it shouldn't be a bad time to buy one. I've been managing on my current laptop with 110GB, so I should be fine with the space limitations of a 256GB SSD. The Samsung 840 Pro looks like a good choice of brand/model, seemingly being faster and longer lasting than many others. And I think I've found a place to get a Windows 8 iso so I can install on to it with the laptop's license. But... £190. I know that it would be a great upgrade, but 40% of the cost of the laptop? I think I'm going to get it, but I might just wait until I've got the process of getting Windows onto it fully worked out before I do.
I've said it before in the other PC building thread but my experience with OCZ SSDs has had a 40% fail rate within the first 3 months. I'm past the point of buying them unless I hear some amazing reports about how they've addressed these issues.
knock on wood (IKEA desks are sorta real wood, right?), but i haven't had any problems with my OCZ Vertex 4. i say that because i haven't really had a lot of luck with them (OCZ ssd's in general) where i work, but haven't had anything bad happen with them at home. so far. go figure.
I've had my new laptop for a couple of days now. It is lovely and fast, but there are some bad points. I had heard that the screen was cheap, but I'm a bit surprised how bad it is. The viewing angle seems tiny. I suspect this is going to be terrible for demoing games to multiple people. I can also seem to actually see the pixel grid. There were a few times I saw an image and thought someone had added a fake "old screen" effect to it, and then realised: Nope, that's just my screen. It has this squished keyboard layout with right ctrl and shift shunted over to the left to make room for the arrow keys, and I really don't like it. I have to really contort my fingers to hit rshift+] to type a }. Which as you can imagine, I am doing a lot. Maybe I can train myself to use left shift instead, but at the moment, it's just painful. And these are problems I am probably now going to be stuck with for the next five years :/
On the bright side, it's really easy nowadays to just HDMI your laptop into a better screen, or better yet get a docking station. If you're happy with the performance you could next look into that option and shore up the weak points. Honestly I would take very seriously any complaints about a screen looking "cheap" or that is has visible pixels. Laptop screens vary hugely and the screen quality is probably going to be one of the blatantly noticeable factors. I've found that generally if there's some sort of "upgraded screen" option for any model of laptop it's worth the extra price to get, because if there's a version where they're admitting the screen looks noticeably better, that means the base version screen looks noticeably worse. A good screen is one where you honestly don't notice anything about it at all.
Unfortunately, that's not really an option. This laptop really is intended to be mobile - it's for use on other people's sofas and in internet cafes, and will probably never meet a desk. Aye. Lesson learned. Every time I buy a computer I discover a new thing to watch out for.
I've had my new MSI for a week now and am loving it. As expected it is huge, power hungry, and once in a while the fan powers up to "hair dryer". But it is fast and capable. It's no longer an aggravation when some update requires a reboot because that only takes about 15 to 20 seconds for a full recycle. CivV which is a bit of a performance dog now loads up about as fast as any normal game used to. The big screen is working great for gaming and as I suspected, I'm glad I went larger. The increased size also means more space for the chiclet keyboard. I purchased a Logitech M125 retractable corded mouse and put a mouse pad on a clipboard. There is a button just below the keyboard to disable the touch pad so I can easily set myself up for some comfortable gaming away from a desk. I also bought an X-box controller for the PC and have been playing Dark Souls from a recliner this past week. Everything has worked great so far. The only issue I've had is when trying to use the built-in microphone with Google Talk it picks up the speaker sound so whoever I'm connected to hears their own echo, forcing me to use headphones. A very minor issue. I've been on a stay-cation so I've put in a couple all-nighters and haven't found anything to dislike so far. It seems like this laptop will do what I want which is to age relatively well as a gaming desktop replacement.
So my old Dell inspiron just died, and I'm looking for a not-very-pricey laptop that I can reasonably play the same library of games I'm used to, and still use for work and grad school for the next few years. I'm leaning towards the Y580, but can you tell me how happy you are with yours a few weeks down the road?
So far, happy, just took it on a biz trip, and wasn't too unwieldy. The trackpad has issues apparently, but I never use trackpad so not an issue I care about. Couple of nice bits of bling over the Y580 are backlit keyboard (surprisingly useful) and having cache SSD. Having said that, the deals on Y580 are such (and, apart from the hard disc, performance is going to be pretty much equal) that I would say go for that.
I ended up deciding on the Y500, as it is slightly cheaper and god help me that keyboard is attractive. Is this the deal you used? I'm not missing out on something hidden, am I?
heh, yes, the aesthetics swung it for me too... I bought mine in HK, so not comparable with US deals (US is normally cheaper for laptops, go figure)
I decided to soon get a ThinkPad W520, there is a mountain of cheap ones in Canada for some reasons, which are pretty loaded with options. I think Lenovo has a load of them and wants to be rid of them. I found one for $778, not a bad price. Still a very powerful machine to this day. It has a still pretty good dedicated GPU, it would be enough to play the upcoming Kickstarter games, which is all I ask. But most of all it's the last line of Lenovo laptops that still come with traditional keyboards. To me chiclets/island based keyboards are completely unacceptable, even those from the 2012 ThinkPad line which I've tried. I plan to hang onto this machine for dear life.
I'm interested in why you don't like the chiclet keyboards. Personally I like them, but I wouldn't put much thought into the keyboard to begin with as long as it wasn't too cramped. Why are they completely unacceptable?
Too little key travel, I feel uncomfortable with chiclet keys. I don't like the tactile feedback as much, it is like pressing microwave buttons. Most of all I an angry that even that option is being completely taken away from me. I think only Fujitsu makes classic keyboards with some of their Lifebooks (if they don't pull a Lenovo this year), and some high-end Dell Precisions laptops too, but apart from that it's basically vanished altogether. Even the most expensive business HP laptops come with chiclets.
I got it! And after a frustrating half hour, I managed to get rid of the worst of 8's excesses. Thanks!
The Purolator guy delivered the laptop at work today, and it's a splendor. The GPU is pretty good, and it looks like something a real professional would use. ThinkPad laptops always had the best keyboards in the industry, and I consider myself to be privileged to have this. Down with all chiclets.
I will be in the US at the end of May. I will be looking to replace my Asus G73. Ideally with something also 17inch and with an SSD and great gaming performance. Any suggestions?
Had a look, definitely at the more expensive end of what I am looking for. I think I need to go to best buy when I hit the US, or order one to a friend's house in DC since I might want a model with SSD and whatnot (shops might not stock in that configuration).
This also looks good, although I have never heard of Sager before. http://www.sagernotebook.com/index.php?page=product_info&model_name=NP9170
From my recent searching, Sager seems to be pretty well regarded. They use the Clevo laptop build and customize it for as much gaming as your willing to spend $$ on. Just like MSI, a gaming capable 17" Sager is probably going to be heavy and noisy but with great performance. More of a desktop replacement than a mobile computer, but then us gamers are willing to put up with a bit of heft for a good experience. :) I've been loving my MSI since I got it in late January. ~10 seconds to go from cold boot to clicking on the Steam icon means all my precious computer time at home is game time! Edit: BTW, that Sager you linked looks great. i7 quad core and a GeForce 675M are what I have. Pair those with SSD storage and you're going to have an exceptional gaming platform.
I'm almost tempted to get a small gaming laptop for my wife. She hasn't in the past played a whole lot of games but recently she's been playing some Tropico 4 and will probably want to play Eador:MotBW, both of which involve her snagging my current Alienware since they're too graphics intensive for my work laptop to run. In terms of having something that's convenient for travel a 17" gaming laptop is functional but not ideal, so I've been mulling over getting something smaller for a while now but I've never been able to get over the hump of rationalizing owning two different gaming laptops.
Thanks for the info, guys. The sager does look nice. I am a but concerned by the noise as I game in the living room next to her indoors. Hmm.
My Alienware m17x has an i7 and 560M and I've never had any issues with it being noisy while running. Heavy yeah, but I'm not sure why it would be unusually noisy unless there's just something with the design of the body.
I sometimes sit in a recliner which is a few feet from our couch. The noise is not so much that it would impede anyone's TV or computer experience in that arrangement. If I sit on the couch right next to my wife while playing something that is forcing the fan to run at full power it might indeed be a minor annoyance to her. If I'm just web surfing or something it is not an issue. Edited to reply to Reldan : When I say noisy I'm only referring to the fan noise when it powers up to full speed. This only happens when I'm playing something graphic intensive and even then it will usually only come on in short bursts then quiet down again, but it is definitely noticable when it powers up.
Oh yeah, I have that same experience then. It's maybe a few short bursts when it happens and it's noticeable but not particularly loud. It's nothing like the kind of fan noise you get out of a desktop and I can't imagine it would actively bother anybody.
Welp, took the plunge and ordered a Sager 11.6" gaming laptop from www.xoticpc.com. Got the Matte Screen upgrade and a 750GB hybrid SATA3 drive, but otherwise it's the stock config. Should get it in a couple weeks and I'll let you know how it turns out!
You planning on hooking it up to an external monitor or you cool with the small screen? Personally the 17" on my LT is about as small as I can handle.
I have a 17" gaming laptop already - this is mostly out of a desire for something easily portable to take on trips and to give my wife something to play games on so she stops stealing my laptop.
Gotcha. I've seen a lot of these smaller gaming units lately and they didn't really resonate with me but it's cool to see why people like them.
I've been tempted with that little Sager. Thought it would be good for plugging into the 60" HDTV and going steam full screen. Would probably plug it into a large monitor otherwise.
I've spec'd this up as I'm off to the US soon and I can get a mate to receive the order. Is there anything better out there for the price range? Note, I've added an SSD primary and another drive as secondary and upgrade the vid card and ram. over the default model.
That looks pretty sweet. We've been very happy with the Sager-made 11" - it's a pretty solid little beast of a laptop.

I have a large amount of Agilent data (580 text files that are ~200 MB in size each) that I'd like to normalize. I've run into a problem in that my machine (with 8 GB of memory) still runs out of memory when I try to read the files using marray in order to geneerate an expression set for normalization. I don't need the expression set, just the normalized output--is there an analogous program for Agilent data like justRMA is used for Affy data?

Today my birthday. I am 32 years old though I don't feel myself on this age... Sometimes it seems to me what I still the child:-) And I must still grow and grow:-)
About outfit. Brown, ochre, cinnamon colors, alas, not mine, but for me it "is impossible" – always the guide to action:-)
All began when I fell in love with this scarf. The husband says that it is similar to a python, which as a sausage round my neck:-) But for me it reminded honey in honeycombs... Generally, associations, as always, different.
I hope, my newest look will be pleasant to you!:-)
хoxo, your Bonnie!

so i'm new to this whole 'tumblr, write down your thoughts, talk to other people who share your fandom feelings' thing. we'll see how this goes. I'm a senior in high school who is going to UR next year so i spend a lot of time on the internet. use your deductive skills to find out more about me.
I'm Layne and i fill time in my life obsessing about tennis, various fantoms (BBC's Sherlock, Doctor Who, Grey's Anatomy, Once Upon a Time, and many more I've apparently forgotten), novels (The Book Thief and Dante Valentine series appearing the most often), policy debate, video editing about all of the above fandoms (and others) and various other strange things. I consider myself funny (I'm apparently the only one who holds this opinion) and i have issues keeping my mouth shut. If any of this appeals to you (or you just like watching the break down of a previously functioning human being), follow me to track the madness.

Each year Portland Opera To Go takes an opera on the road, sharing the power of opera, music, and theater with schools and communities throughout Oregon and SW Washington. It's not necessarily the easiest thing in the world, as you might imagine. But it's one of the most rewarding . . . for us and for the thousands upon thousands of students who get to experience live opera, many for the first time.
And this blog will give you a first-hand view from the performers themselves of what it's like when Opera hits the road!
Here's a link to more information on the tour and the program.
Music affects each person in a different way. It has the ability to comfort, to enliven, to console, and to energize. There is new music being created every day, and we are constantly given the opportunity to hear another piece of music that affects us in a new way and that can change our perspective about something.
As a new member of the Portland Opera To Go (POGO) program, I can safely say that my perspective has been changed. It's been an exciting first week of rehearsals as our new cast gathers and begins the process of creating opera for children.
Our mission for this month with Opera Improv is to create a completely improvised opera that allows the children to choose what they see onstage. This is a totally new experience for me. Normally in opera, the music, dialogue, and staging is fairly concrete. As a performer, my job is to re-create a masterwork, perhaps with a bit of my own personal spin on things. So you might wonder: how do you rehearse something that you make up? What do you rehearse if the performance is going to be different every time?
Well, the performance we do for children is created and improvised on the spot…sort of. There are many things the children get to choose for the opera they see, but there are also many factors that we plan in advance. These factors are what we have been rehearsing this week. Some of these factors include the general story that we are trying to tell, and a couple primary pieces of music that provide direction for the story. Other than these things, everything else is a variable.
This is my first time being on tour and I mean really on tour, out of town for a week at a time on tour. I wasn't sure I knew how to be on tour. After spending some time with many different Kindergarten classes before the performances I began to realize that all I needed to know about being on tour I had learned in Kindergarten.
Rule number one, share everything. This rule was easy! After week one we had all passed around a cold of some form. Once we hit the road Sarah and Wendy learned how to share their costumes. I shared all my tissue, gum, tic-tacs, and ibuprophen. Oh, and we all had to share hotel rooms.
#2 Don't hit people. I must have missed this day in Kindergarten. During the fight over the hat I almost hit Wendy in the eye. I scratched Wendy's arm during one show. Sarah hit me in the face once when I was trying to get past her to the prince. Stacey loves to hit whoever is playing Tisbe with a pillow. Maybe we all missed this lesson.
#3 Clean up your own mess. I use to try to pick up all the feathers my boa would leave on gym floors, but after a while I just gave up and picked up everyone's empty water bottles.
#4 Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody. I can't count the number of times "I'm sorry" gets whispered back stage during the show because someone has ignored the "don't hit people" rule.
#5 Wash your hands before you eat. We have all learned to wash our hands or use hand sanitizer after giving high fives and shaking kids' hands. I think we have finally gotten rid of the sickness that we have been sharing!
Wednesday, February 4th, 2009 Part 1 We started the day dark and early in Baker City. Most of us woke up somewhere around 5:30am or so in order to meet at 6:15 to depart for Pine Eagle Elementary/Junior High/High School in Halfway, Oregon. The hills and mountains were covered in snow, but the roads were clear. Opera singers really don't like getting up anywhere near this early, and I would say most of us weren't exactly bright-eyed or bushy-tailed as the saying goes. But we were treated to a spectacular sunrise in the mountains as we drove along the Hell's Canyon Scenic By-way. The sun cast a reddish orange glow over the peaks while the mountains and valleys were a colored in the deep purple filter of early dawn's shadow. We couldn't afford to spend too much time admiring the view though as most of us were putting the finishing touches on learning some new music for 3 upcoming concert performances or catching a few more moments of sleep or making sure that the van didn't drive over the edge of the twisting roads. We arrived at the school without incident and were met with enthusiasm, if not necessarily the most sure directions on where to unload the set from the truck. Having been told that it would work best for us if we drove the Penske truck around the building, our fearless and intrepid tour manager proceeded to drive around the back of the building. However, we were then told that we would be better off if we had stayed in the front of the building. In the course of moving the truck back to the front of the building, the moving truck got stuck in the snowy "trail" that was behind the school. At this point we were getting closer and closer to show time, and we hadn't unloaded one piece of the set.

Throat cancer may have been the medical reason Val died but in my mind he was just Bro-ing the only way he knew how. Stealing safes, playing Doogie Howser, and admitting it in your own obituary after you die is something I hope people can say about me. This dude was probably also buried in a tuxedo shirt with a flask of Johnny Walker and a pack of smokes in his hand. Val, I salute you!

HWTM Guest Contributor Maureen Anders of Anders Ruff here to brighten up your day with a cheery Pink Lemonade Birthday Party. Mom, Beatriz, recently honored her daughter's 1st birthday with everything to remember from the lemon floral centerpieces to the custom lemonade cart.
PARTY HIGHLIGHTS to look out for:
– Gorgeous floral arrangement centerpieces featuring sliced lemons
– Custom made pink lemonade stand with hand painted accents
– Pinwheel decor featured on cupcakes and around utensils and glassware
– Stenciled Centerpiece Vessel from a coffee can and spray paint
PARTY DETAILS, as told by Beatriz…
For Noelle's first birthday, we decided to give her a Pink Lemonade Party. Her sweets table was a highlight. It included a cake with chevron patterns made to match her invitation. A tier of assorted cupcakes and sugar cookies shaped as lemons were made by The Delightful Miss Joyce. We had pink and yellow meringue towers baked by Cuppy Puppy Bakehouse and cake pops by Cake Pops Manila.
Decorations in the sweets table included handmade paper pinwheels used as cupcake toppers, huge paper fans and a wooden crate as cake stand supplied by the Party Styling Divas.
We placed pink and yellow fabric buntings around the house shying away from the traditional balloons.
We also had ice cream in a cart provided by Pinkerton set up by the garden for the little ones to enjoy! It was a big hit with the kids and adults as they enjoyed their banana nutella, honeycomb, and guava basil sorbet.
For the party favors, the kids were given kraft gable boxes filled with all sorts of sweets!
For the kids table, we put ribbon topiaries as centerpiece in a pot filled with gummy bears. While the adults enjoyed their beautifully arranged flowers with sliced lemons seen through the glass vases.
Pink Lemonade Printables were designed by Anders Ruff.

Tracking Crimes Across Abilene
By: Victor Sotelo
Updated: May 2, 2011
The department reports crime statistics to Raidsonline.com. If you look at the website you can see that most of the problems are in and around apartment complexes. It breaks it down even further than just where the crimes occur, to what type. You might be surprised to learn that right now most of the crime in Abilene does not take place on the weekends, but on Wednesdays.
Abilene Police Chief Stan Standridge says that the department has been reporting most crime stats to the website for a few months now. It takes approximately two days after a crime happens, until it shows up on the site.

Teddy Bear Collection for Sandy Hook Elementary
A teddy bear drive for the students of Sandy Hook Elementary has gained national recognition by two Smyrna residents originally from Connecticut.
When Cindy Pitts learned about the incident in Sandy Hook, she rushed to her friend, Nina Sonsini and the two consoled one another in disbelief that the place they once called home had been the scene of such a horrible tragedy.
Cindy said, "We have to do something. This is too big... Teddy bears! We'll send teddy bears!".
Over 500 bears were collected in three days and the goal is to collect enough so that each Newtown Elementary student has a bear when they return to school.
The women reached out to friends and family through social media and the project exploded. Their efforts were featured on NBC Nightly News as part of Ann Curry's "26 Random Acts of Kindness".
Bears and letters are being collected at the following locations until 5pm on Thursday:
Sterling Engineering and Fabrication (sponsoring shipping)
101 Performance Way
Carrollton, GA 30117
Then Again Consignments
3988 Atlanta Road
Smyrna, GA 30080
916 Sharon Circle
Smyrna GA 30082
Mildred Foster
11:38 am on Thursday, December 20, 2012
Cindy Pitts is my daughter and I just got an Email telling me they got somone to deliver the bears to CT But Ct told them it could be 3 months before they got to the school, the idea was to have them there when the kids went back so they would be so happy to see all of the bears the fear would at least ease; Surley something can be done about this. Thanks for trying

YouTube adds live streaming to iOS app
If you were hoping to watch last weekend's Coachella concert on your iDevice, you just missed your chance: although the event was streamed live on YouTube for free, the iOS YouTube app doesn't support live streaming.
It does now. (Cruel timing, Google!) YouTube 1.3 for iOS, released today, adds a handful of new features and fixes, not the least of which is access to live streams.
For those unaware, YouTube offers a variety of live content, everything from concerts (natch) to news and sports.
The iOS streaming feature joins a "Send to TV" option introduced back in February, … Read more

The Beck Supremacy
So Much Gasbaggery, So Little Time
Life Just Got a Lot Harder for Arkansas Inmates
The most obvious tragedy of the Washington police shootings is the deaths of the four police officers. The fact that the suspected gunman is a convicted felon from Arkansas whose 95-year prison sentence was commuted by then-Governor Mike Huckabee in 2000 is a tragedy for anyone currently in prison in Arkansas who might hope to one day receive executive clemency. Just consider what happened in Massachusetts after Willie Horton. READ MORE >>

Eagles hammered by Saints on Monday Night Football
NEW ORLEANS – This Eagles loss was the size of a Buick, to borrow the showbiz line.
This 28-13 defeat to the awful New Orleans Saints Monday night at the Sudrperdome may be the last dagger in the Andy Reid-Michael Vick relationship, which entered another weird phase.
During the game @MVFive, the younger brother of Vick, tweeted that he wanted the Eagles to trade his sibling. Who could blame him? Mike Vick was sacked seven times. It wouldn't be difficult finding critics to agree, assuming Vick is tradable at some point after the season.
The Eagles gave it a shot, Brent Celek fumbling the ball away at the seven-yard line of the Saints with 3:03 left. Celek had the first down but couldn't hold on.
It would have erased three straight horrific snaps by Demetress Bell, who replaced the injured Todd Herremans at right tackle. Bell got back-to-back penalties and then allowed his man, Cameron Jordan, to sack Vick.
It was that kind of evening.
The setback saddles the Eagles with a four-game losing streak for the second straight season. It's the fourth four-game skid in 14 years of Reid.
At the midway point of the season the NFC East breaks down like this: Giants 6-3, Cowboys 3-5 (via tiebreaker), Eagles 3-5, Redskins 3-6.
The Eagles are 0-1 since their players-only meeting.
Did we mention they lost for the first time in four regular season games referee Clete Blakeman officiated? Continued...
The final ignominy for the Eagles was tight end Jimmy Graham literally walking into the end zone for the touchdown giving the Saints a 28-13 bulge with 1:20 left in the third quarter. With a high ankle sprain, Graham jogged to the goal post where he dunked over the crossbar.
The Eagles thought they had an answer for that when Brandon Boykin, who fielded the ensuing kickoff, fired a homerun throwback pass across the field to Riley Cooper, who had been lying on the ground in the end playing hurt. Cooper went 94 yards for what appeared to be a touchdown chopping the lead to 28-20 with 1:05 left in the third quarter.
But Blakeman called it an illegal forward pass. End of excitement.
For the sixth straight game the Eagles failed to score in the first quarter. They managed a field goal in the second quarter and looked beaten jogging off in a 21-3 hole at the intermission.
But if the Eagles can do one thing right it's score on the first possession of the second half. Vick, who had 78 passing yards, threw a 77-yard touchdown pass to DeSean Jackson, who found a gap in the secondary as wide as a levee. It was the seventh straight game the Birds got points on their first series of the third quarter.
When Brandon Hughes fell on Travaris Cadet's fumbled kickoff, Chris Polk popping the ball loose, the Eagles had a first down at the 22.
Vick scrambled 14 yards to the 8 but after an incompletion was dropped for an 11-yard loss by unblocked defensive end Will Smith.
On third-and-19, Jeremy Maclin got a hand on a throw but couldn't haul it in, bringing in Alex Henery to boot a 37-yard field goal pulling the Birds within 21-13 with 7 minutes left in the third quarter.
Ugly is the word for the first series of both the Eagles and the Saints.
Vick fumbled the ball away for his 14th turnover after the Eagles advanced to the 30-yard line of the Saints. Continued...
The Saints then missed an ill-fated 52-yard field goal when their drive stalled.
Shortly thereafter the Eagles resurrected the ground game. It was a novel idea – control the ball, the clock and keep Drew Brees off the field. And the Saints, by the way, cannot tackle a lick.
Bryce Brown thundered 41 yards to give the Eagles first-and-goal at the five-yard line. If you know the Eagles, you know what they called after McCoy lost one yard on first down.
Vick's pass ricocheted off a hand of Celek to Patrick Robinson, who rolled 99 yards with an escort to spot the Saints a 7-0 lead.
Adding insult to injury was Vick getting flagged for a low block trying to take out a blocker.
On this night the Eagles rediscovered the run, accumulating 105 yards in just the first quarter against a defense that gives up yardage in chunks.
Henery kicked a 22-yard field goal with 12:07 left in the first half after a first-and-goal at the four-yard line blew up with – what else – an incompletion.
At that point the Eagles had lost Herremans to an ankle-foot injury. All of the sudden the Eagles had a training camp-looking group of King Dunlap, Evan Mathis, Dallas Reynolds, Dennis Kelly and Bell.
The ground game kept Brees from getting into a rhythm until later in the first half when he marched the Saints 76 yards in seven plays to spot the home team a 14-3 lead.
The Saints gave the Eagles a taste of their own bad tackling medicine, Mark Ingram bouncing a run for 23 yards and running back Chris Ivory going the final 22 yards through a missed tackle by first-time starter David Sims, the safety replacing injured starter Nate Allen. Continued...
The Eagles exited at the intermission with that beaten look, the Saints putting together another long touchdown drive capped by Brees' one-yard throw to Marques Colston.
To that point, the Eagles had done the unthinkable – prevented Brees from extending his NFL record for consecutive games with at least one TD pass. Instead the Eagles were victimized hiking the streak to 51 games.

The Best of Survey 2012
Cycling as a cultural attitude
Cycling as a cultural attitude. Not just style or 'Streetstyle', a phrase first expressed by anthropologist Ted Polhemus and one that is omnipresent across many sartorial blogs. This is what I think of when I think of the Rapha Survey blog:
To me Survey is a scrapbook documentation of people whose love and passion is cycling. This in turn exudes an attitude in both their attire, style and bike choices. That's me just below: no brakes, no helmet, just a bit of gold and my cycling attitude. Say what you will but like all people we have the choice of what we do and how we wear ourselves to the outside world, and this is how I like to roll.
Below is my selection of city riding types whose attitude has made 2012 an intriguing year for Survey. A gallery of photography which has perhaps expanded, morphed and re-shaped its original purpose as a cycle sartorial blog.
London / Photographer - George Marshall
"Don't call me urban" the title of Simon Wheatly's photographic book archiving the grime music scene speaks of the negative connotations of the word driven by commerce and media. This image reminds me of that work. For me this striking shot does not speak of 'urban' in the music sense, it only speaks of an inner city attitude and the style that supports it. From the attire to the customised Ridgeback hybrid, this image shouts "Great Britain", just as previously frowned upon youth subcultures like Punks and Skinheads did.
Gavin Watson - Gavin's brother sits on a BMX in High Wycombe, 1984
Basket Case
London / Photographer - George Marshall
This gentleman and his ride simply had to make it into my selection. You could say he desperately needs a van to put his cargo in. But no. This is not the attitude of a hardened cyclist. Everything serves a practical purpose here, which in turn naturally helps push out a cool, calm and effortless style. It starts from the loose, relaxed fit of his Kaftan and ends with the laid-back geometry and weaved baskets of his hybrid bike.
Mountain Man
Denver CO / Photographer - George Marshall
There is so much that is attitude in this shot, I don't know where to begin. Clearly a man that wears his habitat, the Moccasins, ripped denim shorts a cut above the knee, wolf-man hair, a dog that matches and a car and a bike that form a perfect marriage of style-cool born from living rather than a glossy style mag.
The Archbishop
London / Photographer - George Marshall
Timeless signature style and an attitude of a man with respect. The bike itself is as traditional and as classy as the man with which it travels. Three gears is all the speed God needs.
London / Photographer - George Marshall
Body adornment is no stranger to attitude and this man wears his passion for cycling on his skin regardless of what he puts on in the morning. Judging by the amount of slack in that chain, this gentlemen rides till it breaks. That sort of hardened attitude can only be found in courier culture or further south in the Pacific.
San Francisco / Photographer - John Reiss
With a look so cool and a swagger straight out of Wayne's World, this man should be sipping Coca Cola from a glass bottle weaving through traffic on a skateboard just before hanging out in an 80's arcade. But no, he cycles custom. He wants to turn heads and then take them as passengers for a party back home.
For that. I salute him.
Cavallino Meccanico
Melbourne / Photographer - Andy White
Survey wouldn't be Survey without the girls and their style that consistently begs the question "you can ride your bike, in that?" A question that is no more relavant than the lady above. When this was originally posted many shouted "fake" due to her attire not being practical enough for her steed.
Take a trip to Dalston in London, Harajuku in Japan or Mississippi Avenue in Portland and you will see that practicality in city riding often comes second after style. The very fact the outfit highlights the paint job simply shows this girl knows how to pull the style trigger and if the bike isn't hers, she does a damn good job of offering inspiration. The very reason we are celebrating Survey.

They shouted fake beacuse it's not her bike. Check out the size of it - it belongs to Mr Fxyomatosis.

@Paul Witte. They may not match your perception of the Rapha person but we're a broader church than perhaps some appreciate and Survey helps us to articulate that a little. To give some context to this comment the author of this article, the subject in the first photo, is a key part of Rapha.
@justin riley: To quote from the above "and if the bike isn't hers, she does a damn good job of offering inspiration."
Thanks for the comments & Happy Christmas to you both.

Why is interface created through netlink named 'vlan0' and interface created through old vconfig called 'ethX.YY'. Seems like the interface should be consistent. --
From: Stephen Hemminger <email@example.com> I think the netlink scheme is saner, and the idea is to transition people over to that. We can't change what vconfig uses, so what Patrick decided to do is pretty sane if you ask me. --

From: Stephen Hemminger <firstname.lastname@example.com> You can just say you don't think the behavior is intentional.... :-/ --
Indeed, it was intentional not to have these IMO useless naming schemes when you can simply supply the name of your choice when creating the interface. --
I don't see the point of this. The new interface is available through ip(8) only, vconfig remains unchanged. So the user is completely aware that the name may change as he's using a new command. In any case, ip(8) allows you to set the name to whatever you want at creation time. So for those nostalgics you can still use ethX.Y through ip. Cheers, -- Visit Openswan at http://www.openswan.org/ Email: Herbert Xu ~{PmV>HI~} <firstname.lastname@example.com> Home Page: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/ PGP Key: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/pubkey.txt --
You should be able to set the name at creation time. The default is only used if you didn't specify an explicit name. Cheers, -- Visit Openswan at http://www.openswan.org/ Email: Herbert Xu ~{PmV>HI~} <email@example.com> Home Page: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/ PGP Key: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/pubkey.txt --
Indeed. The kernel also sends notifications, so iproute could print the generated name if none was specified. --
From: Patrick McHardy <firstname.lastname@example.com> I considered this issue closed 6 emails ago. I don't know why Stephen keeps persisting. :-) --
That does seem silly. ethX.YYYY told you which physical interface and which vlan number it was. vlan0 tells you nothing useful. -- Len Sorensen --
Yes...the old way would tell you the vlan-id regardless of how many NICs you have, which is useful information for anyone actually trying to configure two boxes to talk to each other, or (god forbid), debug someone else's config. It's true you can specify the vlan-name on creation using 'ip', which is what I do, so I'm not going to argue Stephen's change either way..but I do like device names that give more info... Ben -- Ben Greear <firstname.lastname@example.com> Candela Technologies Inc http://www.candelatech.com --
To make it clear: I don't say vlan0 is better; but IMHO it doesn't have to be silly or nothing useful either. Jarek P. --
I guess for Linux it should be ethN.Y. vlanN is Cisco and other switches behaviour, since they establish vlanN interfaces and bridge all vlan with numbers there. In best case they do remapping on receive. So on linux similar alternative of cisco interface vlan100 will be: ip link add link eth0 type vlan id 100 ip link add link eth1 type vlan id 100 brctl addbr vlan100 brctl addif vlan100 eth0.100 brctl addif vlan100 eth1.100 But on first two steps it creates for me vlan0 and vlan1, which is not very informative. I guess interface names should be intuitive, and should help to admin to find out for who vlan0 belongs without digging tons of files. But another point... ip -d link output is enough useful. I can find out easily who is who. 141063: vlan0@eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN link/ether 00:0a:cd:16:82:74 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff vlan id 100 <REORDER_HDR> 141070: vlan1@eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN link/ether 00:0a:cd:16:82:69 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff vlan id 100 <REORDER_HDR> But IMHO ethN.Y more intuitive understandable. --

Admittedly, this part of the rtnl_link interface could be improved. The names are allocated centrally when unspecified, which imposes this fixed naming scheme. A simple callback to choose a better name than just incrementally counting up interfaces types would allow to at least choose a default name of ethX.xyz or something similar. I refuse to introduce the selectable naming schemes to this interface though, this can easily be done in userspace. --
Yes. What vlan number is vlan0 talking to on ethX? Not that eth0 ever told you much useful, but at least eth0.0005 told you something. I guess vconfig chose the name anyhow before, so no reason to not continue to let user space take care of what to name it. -- Len Sorensen --
OK, you're right! More info is better. ...How about changing this silly "eth" thing to something really useful like BSDs do?! Jarek P. --
The binding is displayed when listing interfaces. This hole argument is silly, if you want a particular name, just specify it. The current naming schemes are entirely based on information that you have to specify anyways. --
On Mon, 02 Mar 2009 22:49:18 +0100 I overlooked the obvious: ip li add link eth1 name eth1.44 type vlan id 44 Setting the name overrides. --
Finally someone realizes it :) As stated before, there is room for improvement, but please no selectable naming schemes when userspace is ulitimatively responsible anyways :) --
Just for the record, I don't agree with calling "this" argument silly just like it was with "that" argument. Actually, I think they are both so "right" that I've changed my mind and think it's great each tool does it differently... Jarek P. --
I'm not sure whether I'm supposed to understand this, so I'm going to respond with something useful unrelated to naming user resources that every virtual device author should know (and that seems to be not well known): Every virtual device bound to a different device should set the dev->iflink field to the ifindex of the device bound to. This makes every device related netlink message include this relation. If the binding is already known at device-creation time and relevant for the virtuals device's existance, this must be done in the ->init callback to make sure its already included in the first netlink creation message to avoid inconsistent information. This is the also the prefered way device bindings should be signaled to the kernel, and at least iproute and libnl are aware of this in both directions.

Yes, very interesting arguments for another disussion... But if we're talking about naming than you seem to ignore what Lennart, Ben, Denys and probably Stephen said about their preferred way, and I think it matters, because if they had problems with understanding this change I can only imagine what "common users" would say without knowing all this technical rationale (which IMHO is disputable too - names are for people). Jarek P. --
I like my own naming scheme, and I use it by specifying the name when creating the vlan using 'ip'. It would have been nice (IMO) to have the dev.vid naming be default from the beginning, but since it wasn't, it would cause more harm than good to change it now. So, I'm NOT arguing for changing the behaviour, though anything that can document the features of 'ip' better and make it more obvious you can set the name upon creation should help people... -- Ben Greear <email@example.com> Candela Technologies Inc http://www.candelatech.com --

In your hair, I mean.
I was just about to wash my hair when I realized that my sister had used the last of the shampoo. And conditioner.
Chels, of course, didn't bother to replace the bottles, leaving me with no choice other than to seek out a reasonable alternative rather than jump out of the shower and then back in again.
The water continued to splash over me. I looked to the right. Soap. I looked behind me. More soap. I looked straight ahead and found an old bottle of body wash that looked to be at least a decade old.
Then came the golden moment in which my eyes stumbled upon a can of shaving cream. I picked it up. I opened the cap and smelled the "Tropical Paradise" scent. Not bad.
I looked around for other alternatives but quickly found none. It looked as though the shaving cream was my only hope, aside from the soap.
Here goes, I thought, as I put a dollop into the palm of my hand and began to lather the shaving cream into my scalp.
Wait. Perhaps "lather" is not the ideal word to have used in that sentence; as soon as I put the shaving cream in my hair, it might as well have evaporated.
Or better yet, I would have been better off throwing a whole pile of grease onto my head, because that's exactly how my hair felt the next morning: like a greaseball. Like the biggest greaseball on planet earth.
The good news was that I had the option to shower again. The bad news was that I had no time; I had to be at work in a half hour. The only solution I could think of was to put a headband in my hair and pretend that I had just used some ultra shiny hair gloss and didn't acknowledge its ultra-shiny potential.
I brainstormed how I could casually mention to my co-workers how greasy my hair was rather than pretend that it wasn't greasy at all.
"So guess what happened to me this morning? I used this ultra shiny hair gloss and I put way too much in my hair. Can you believe I did that?"
Yes. That was way better than admitting that I tried to wash my hair with women's shaving cream.
It wasn't even like my hair smelled good. It smelled greasy. I don't even know how that's possible, but I certainly learned a big lesson: next time I don't have any shampoo or conditioner within reach, I'll try the stupid soap.

MENANDS, N.Y. -- A suspected animal hoarder is expected in court today after police said more than 44 dead cats were found behind a Johnsonville home. An anonymous tipster told State Police they saw Arthur Millard leaving plastic containers in the back of the house. Police said the remains of dozens of cats and kittens were found in those containers.
The 53-year-old Millard and his son, Earl, were arrested in March after police said they neglected more than 100 cats in Saratoga County.
Officials aren't sure if the cats found in Johnsonville were from that Halfmoon home or somewhere else.

MEPS June 26, 2009
Padre Basco asks Solidad for forgiveness (at her grave site).
Fernanda asks Fr/Ed for a favor. Tonight she has a reunion, but doesn't know what it's about. Suddenly Fr/Ed receives a phone call from Padre Basco. Padre tells Fr/Ed things are dangerous. Your enemy is everywhere. Please listen to me. Don't talk about this anymore to anyone. Don't confide in anyone.
Vlad and Pris pull up to his apartment with Flor close behind. Vlad tells Pris not to be upset with him anymore. I promised you that Damian will not bother you anymore. Pris tells him that she doesn't believe him. The more I know you the more I realize you are one of those men whose words don't mean anything. They walk into his apartment building with Flor looking on. Flor is pissed.
Vlad and Pris walk into Vlad's apartment and Pris starts in on Damian. She says that she's a married woman and can't be coming at their beck and call when they feel like it. What game are you trying to play? Vlad tries to explain, but Pris tells him to shut up. You guys are made for each other replies Pris. (viewerville nods in agreement) You guys are a bunch of idiots. Pris, responds Damian, all the Elizandes including your husband have realized that I am innocent. Sit down. I'm glad. So why did you call me here then asks Pris. I am offering you my help responds Damian. How do you plan on helping me asks Pris. Proposing a pact. In exchange for my silence, I want you to watch my back. You insult me replies Pris. Well then everyone will know that the child you expect is not your husbands replies Damian. You are a jerk says Pris and gets up to smack Damian across his face. He gets up pissed and Vlad must have grown a little bit of balls and gets in front of Pris and defends her. Damian says tell me what you want me to tell your family then? That I found you in Vlad's apartment arguing about the paternity of your child? Vlad jumps on this like a ducks on a junebug and agrees that Damian should tell Anibal that he is the real father. He turns to Pris with a crazed look in his eyes and says "Mi Angel, it's best that everyone knows the truth." He kneels on the couch, takes her hand, kisses it, promises her then says no swears to her that I assume my responsibilities. She gets a scared look in her eyes like this guy is nuts.
Barbara brings Aurora coffee. Barbara tries to be all nice and tells her that she just wants to help her. She reminds her that she also went through the same hell she is now going through. She knows of an expert who can help her. They helped her so much. Aurora asks if she means with a witch (bruja). The ones that talk with the spirits? Yes, replies Barbara. Isn't that bad asks Aurora. Seeking help is bad asks Barbara. No, responds Aurora. Barbara tells her she doesn't know what she would have done if it wasn't for that sainted woman. Do you think that woman could help me asks Aurora. It wouldn't be a sin? Aurora it helped me, but if you doubt then there' not point responds Barbara.
Fr/Ed is walking around the living room. Fernanda asks what's wrong. Ever since you received that call your attitude has changed. Tell me what has you worried. Fr/Ed says that to feel confidence in your heart and then to have it poisoned are reasons to disregard that confidence. She asks if he has no confidence in her.
Vlad tells Pris that there will never be anything that her and there child will ever need that will not be met. I promise to give you the best of me. Damian interrupts and tells Pris to give her "lover" an answer. Thank you Vlad, but that's not necessary replies Pris. Just get up. She asks Damian that if he is now found innocent then why does he want her to investigate what's going on in the house? Because I want to make sure that Barbara doesn't have a trick up her sleeve for tonight that why replies Damian.
Barbara is worried about Aurora's relationship with Santiago. Why, asks Aurora. Because if you want to stay by his side you must take away these fears. My situation was the same as yours. I was at the point of losing my husband. He thought I was possessed by a demon. But I did want I had to do to keep his love. I can make an appointment with the person who helped me. Can you do that for me asks Aurora. I will do that for you, but you can't tell anyone. Not even Santiago. Understand?
Pris calls Tomasa and tells her to tell Barbara not to expect her for dinner. She asks Damian when is his meeting with Barbara. Tonight responds Damian. And how do you want me to investigate all this asks Pris. I tell you want to do not how to do it replies Damian. I will be waiting for your call. Pris leaves and forgets her phone.
Fr/Ed says we all run with danger. And the only way to protect ourselves is to confide. There are reasons for all of us to doubt each other. That is why I ask why you have confidence in me? I just do replies Fernanda. That's what I'm saying. You can't have confidence in everyone. You cannot tell anyone what we are doing. I beg you. The danger is so big we cannot risk it. Even the ones we love. She says the one she worries the most about is Lili. Don't you realize the danger is real? Don't tell your father even your brothers. We have to find out who Gregoria Bravo and her son Aremio Bravo are.
Vlad is following Pris outside. He wants to take her. She doesn't want him too. Flor is watching all this. Damian takes the phone to Pris. Flor is muy impactada to see Damian.
Venus comes back from her shopping trip. She calls Martina who tells her how pretty she looks. Venus shows off her purchases to Martina and Lili. They call get presents too.
Santiago asks Fernanda that their father told him that Lili escaped from the mental hospital. Is that true? Yes confirms Fernanda, but I believe that we will find her soon. Is it also true that she was kidnapped asks Santiago. That's what the police think, but we have to wait and see replies Fernanda. She changes the subject and asks Aurora if she found out anymore about who painted the bloody cross in her bathroom. Santiago believes it was Camilo. Aurora doesn't believe it was. Knock on the door and Tomasa says dinner is ready. Fernanda says she is going out with Barbara for dinner. Santiago says to be careful what she eats. It could have poison in it. He laughs.
Pris tells Damian that she doesn't sense anything weird going on in the house and Barbara is calm. Vlad tells Damian not to hang up, but he does anyway. Damian lies and says that Pris said "hi". Damian and Vlad are getting ready to go. Vlad says it's too early, but Damian wants to get there early to make sure there are no surprises for him. Vlad doesn't want to go, but Damian insists he goes. Vlad little balls that he had grown when he defended Pris after she slapped Damian have disappeared and now he's scared that the police are going to get them. Damian says Pris told him all is good and he trusts her. Let's go.
Barbara tells Gonzo she's leaving. There going to the Casa Blanca. He hopes everything goes well.
Flor tells Margarita that she saw Damian. Margarita thinks she can't be sure, she only saw him for a second. I know what I saw replies Flor. I have seen him in the office day in and day out. But you can't tell Fernanda responds Margarita. Why not, asks Flor. Because that is her husband replies Margarita. That is exactly why I should tell her says Flor.
Fernanda says I don't see a restaurant. Barbara tells her change of plans.
Margarita asks Flor what will she gain from telling Fernanda what she saw? For her to open her eyes replies Flor. Jacinto comes in and wonders what's going on. Margarita tells Jacinto that Flor saw Damian today.
Barbara tells Fernanda to get out to the car and walk over to the statue. Fernanda says no. Tell me what we are doing here. Barbara tells her that if she goes over there and after 5 minutes doesn't like what she hears then they will leave. Fernanda again tells her no. She doesn't understand what the whole mystery is about. Barbara doesn't want to ruin the surprise. She hands her the keys and begs her to please go. Fernanda gets out and looks around. She goes back to the car and questions Barbara again. Barbara tells her this is what's best for you. You have nothing to lose. Are you sure asks Fernanda. I'm just hoping you can get back your happiness responds Barbara.
Esteve and Fr/Ed come in with pizza. Venus extends her hand for Fr/Ed to kiss. Esteve remarks on how well she has learned. (if I was Venus I would never wash my hand again) Anyway she asks Fr/Ed if after her job is done can she keep her clothes? Fr/Ed says of course. Venus wants to know when she will know who this guy is that's she supposed to make fall in love with her. Esteve tells her at the party. At least tell me his name replies Venus. Fr/Ed says his name is really not important.
Damian is waiting by the statue and Vlad calls. He wants to know if Barbara is there yet. Damian says he'll call when he knows something. Suddenly Fernanda appears.
Fr/Ed praises Venus on her picking up quickly on her studies. Venus says that Esteve is a wonderful teacher. Esteve says only because your a wonderful student. Venus tells him to stop because he is making her blush. She gets into her hooker attitude, but Esteve clears his throat and she corrects herself back into a more ladylike behavior. She's scared that when the time comes for her to get into her role, she will reverse back into her old self. Fr/Ed says well then I'll tell you his name then. It's Camilo. Esteve tells her all will be well. Venus wants to know if Camilo is old,young and defects. Esteve tells her that he will give her some of the defects. He is vile, a lazy bum, a playboy, and a womanizer. What if he finds out about me asks Venus. Esteve says have confident. I believe that will not happen. Not when he comes face to face with Lovely Norton. And who is that, you asks Venus. That beautiful and sophisticated woman is you. That is your new name. Lovely Norton. My beautiful niece.
Damian didn't know that he was going to be seeing her and vice versa. Barbara is happy and says that is why I didn't want to tell you anything my love. Right says Fernanda and tries to walk away. Barbara grabs her and brings her face to face and joined hands with Damian. She says nothing stands in the way of Damian returning to the hacienda. What says Fernanda. Damian says is that true? Barbara tells Damian that all the charges have been dropped.
Lovely Norton says Venus. So we are now related. Yes, replies Esteve. This gives creditability to our plan. Fr/Ed says that he and Esteve will be watching out for her at all times. And also that Camilo will want to sleep with her, but under no circumstance is she to do that. Esteve also interjects that she cannot fall in love with him. Fr/Ed looks at him funny and agrees.
Barbara says let's go to the house and finish talking about this. Damian thinks it's a good idea, but Fernanda is not in agreement. Fernanda has to many questions that need to be answered first. Damian says I will answer your questions, but not here. This place is to isolated and dangerous. I will not return with you until you answer all my questions and doubts first responds Fernanda. Damian says I want to save my marriage. Give me a chance. Fine responds Fernanda. Let's go to another place. Barbara smiles her evil smile.
Flor tells Jacinto that Fernanda should know what's going on. Margarita thinks that Flor has a reason. Jacinto thinks it'a a bad idea. You don't know what problems you can cause.
Barbara thinks they should go to a hotel for the night to talk out their problems. Damian agrees.
Tomorrow: Fernanda and Damian talk, Jacinto tells Fr/Ed about Damian, Fr/Ed calls Fernanda
I loved the meeting place for Dam and Nanda. St. Michael and the good and evil symbolism was priceless.
The pink pleather coat for Lili was just abominable. At least she was happy with it. And poor Fer, knowing that Babs is evil and then having Babs drive her to the middle of nowhere...I'd have jumped right out of the damn car!
Some of the plot serving devices can be very annoying. It makes no sense to me to have Margarita and Jacinto insisting that Flor not tell Fer what she knows. Her position is the correct one. Fer has every right to know that her miscreant husband has been hiding out with Vladimir. After all, they don't know about the charges being withdrawn.
Silvia again is such a wonderful telenovia. She looks at Damián after she meets him at the statue as if he were a specimen under the microscope. She gets right to the point and says, OK, if we're going to talk - then take me to where you've been hiding all this while!
But, of course, in TN world the baddie always gets their way until the last week, so Babs heads that danger off and Fer will end up in a hotel room with Damn, where no nuptials will be consummated. But, also of course, Freduardo's jealousy is going to be aroused. Sigh.
Venus' makeover is quite good. She looks wonderful without so much makeup.
What can you say about the Abora/Babs scenes. I start to FF>> but then, like watching a skiing accident, I watch it anyway. I suppose the evil maid will be the "bruja". I suppose it's too much to hope for that, in the meeting with the "bruja" she blurts out that her mother is Rebeca Sánchez. Nah. That would slow down the torture.
Lili was adorable in this one. Agree that the coat was awful, but her joy in having it was great to see.

Lili was adorable in this one. Agree that the coat was awful, but her joy in having it was great to see.
And the sad little torment-Aurora scenes. She's going against her Catholic training by consulting a "bruja" and of course the biggest bruja of all is the one luring her into the relationship.
Loved Vlad sticking up for Priscilla with Damian and loved the way they teased us with not saying Camillo's name for a few scenes. Do you suppose they knew we'd been speculating all this time?
Fernanda, Fernanda, Fernanda, our beautiful intelligent heroine has been told by her husband that Babs is going to destroy the whole family & Fr/Ed has said that Babs is a danger to them, & she gets out of a car in the middle of the night in a dark deserted area?????? She could have been killed by anyone!!!!
And Lovely???? They couldn't do better that THAT? Mable or Gertrude would have been better.
But so what, FC is so bonito, it makes it all worthwhile. Give the writers beanies.
I wanted to yell at the TV, "Aurora, you're trusting Babs, the woman you saw boinking Damian on his wedding day, over Santiago?!?" No telenovela beanie hat is going to suspend my disbelief on this.
Why do I watch this stuff??? Gaaaaaah......
Dr. O seems to be gone but I am enjoying the comedic relief provided by Flor's facial expressions. I can see how she and Gardenia are related in that sense. GinCA
I have watched this telenovela (my first) from the beginning but I have a few questions and comments
1.Silvia Navarro is a terrific actress. Such an expressive and beautiful face! Have she and FC worked together before?
2. Lucero is genius at evil. I understand she is usually the protagonist/heroine. What other shows do you recommend that she is in?
3. Why is Fernanda so trusting of Barbara? Hasn't she has been told that Barbara killed her Mother!??
4. To whom was Padre Bosco referring in his dire warning to Fr/Ed?
5.It seems to me that the show was moving smartly along until about 3 weeks ago when it began to bog down? Has anyone else noticed this?
6. Is Fernando Colunga married or partnered in real life? Just curious.
Thanks again, re-cappers for your work!
Fernanda is not trusting of Barbara & the only one that knows she killed her Mom is Artemio.
And all FC has to do is come here & be partnered with about any women here.
Google him & you'll get some personal info, but not that much.
Thanks for the welcome and instruction. No spoilers and no gossip about the actor's personal lives. Got it.
Lovely Norton? I almost fell off the couch with that one. And did everyone notice that despite the new sophisticated dress, she still had the leopard-skin bra sticking out all over the place, and those same boots? Venus, you're the best.
Jacinto knows what he's doing, advising Flor not to tell Fernanda. Not that there's any logic to it, but Jacinto realizes that all decisions are made by Fr/Ed, since the last three times Jacinto had an idea, Fr/Ed surprised him by saying just the opposite. And so far, Fr/Ed's instincts have worked out.
Carlos, I also liked Fernanda's sweater.
I'm new too and delighted to have found this site. I am working on my Spanish as well and am so very thankful for the recappers.
Many people, including me, loved Amor Real with FC and Adela Noriega. I can really recommend that novela. It is on You Tube, plus I think you can buy a condensed version online if you'd like.
This is the first time I have seen Sylvia Navarro, but others might have seen her in something else. I agree, she is terrific, plus she is playing a strong, smart woman which, in my opinion is rare in the TNs.
Sandy in TN
Whatever eevil machinations, I hope Nanda y Eddie don't go through off and on hate-love-distrust like Hot Rod and Gaviota, let them fight the baddies together as in Pasion.
I don't recall seeing in the recaps something that Padre Bosco told Ed/Fr - I think on Thursday: That Martina's dad, the herrero might know who Artemio Bravo's mom was. So, a little clue should be forthcoming from that.
Doesn't it seem that all of Ed's attempts against Camilo have ended up not doing anything or backfiring?? The million dollar horse was somehow supposed to be a weapon agains Camilo - yet didn't seem to influence him. Accepting Erika's ruse to be her new novio was supposed to get Camilo jealous or upset - that didn't seem to phase him. Not reporting they had the car was supposed to put Camilo in a fix trying to explain how he lost daddy's car - but Barb conveniently explained that away by saying she had the car and somebody stole it. Camilo's finding the email suggesting Franco Santorro was in Mexico to find a rich wife - I still haven't figured out exactly how that was supposed to impact anything. In short, it seems that any of the attempts to embarass or punish Camilo seem to have rolled off of him like grease rolling off teflon.
Jackie J.
But sth has to happen between Fr/Ed & Camilo. And what is Gonzo doing about a car, or did he forget it's missing?
PLEASE let the fiesta begin!!!!!
If I had a husband abandon me like Dam did my marriage would have already been dissolved. I sure wouldn't take him back.
Elna Jane, you have to get Alborada. I'm watching it now and it is awesome. Melinama has recaps too which help because it is a little choppy. FC is gorgeous and Lucero is beautiful and sweet (if you can imagine that!)
I sure hope it doesn't turn into "All Abora, All the Time" because then I'll have to FF a lot!
Just a quick thought on Erika and Fr/Ed. I think when she discovers his real identity, she will consider him beneath her. At the same time, Esteve, the rich American might start to look pretty good! That's one reason I love TNs--the possibilities are endless!!
Kind of a goofy episode, why all the mystery about the Dam/Fer meeting? Why would Fer go along with that, knowing what Babs had done to Montemama?
Nice transformation of Venus to Lovely (WTInfierno? with that name?), but get rid of the leopard bra straps.
That's it Que empiece la fiesta!!
Jardinera - welcome back!!! Travelogue, please!!!!
I thought it was hilarious that Steve showed up with pizza. Who hates pizza? Camilo! So you know he must be evil!! (Did I see only one pizza for the whole bunch of them to share? What, is everyone on a diet?)
The name "Lovely" was a horrid choice. And are they planning to give Venus a crash-course in English? Because it's a little odd that her fictitious parents would have given her an English word for a name (a name that no English-speaking person would bestow) but didn't teach her any English.
Oh well. I'm still excited at the prospect that she might beat up Camilo. Let's get on with the party, already!
My question is, did FrEd see the episode or read the recap... because I am still waiting for him to follow up on that. You would think he'd have been at the guy's doorstep in five minutes.
In defense of Fern, she didn't agree to get out of the car leaving the asessina with the perfect drive by opportunity to get rid of her. She demanded the car keys.
Are they going to pass her off as Steve's sister? Or is it that she's his creation? Why do I think she's going to fall for Camilo?
La Paloma
I just can't imagine how they came up with that stupid name. Don't they have anyone that's even been to the U.S. writing for them?
Jackie J.
Another thing I'd like to share with bloggers,I enjoy reading the blog while listening to Latino pop tunes on Rhapsody. OK, call me wierd!
We are going on a cruise as well this summer!!!

I know novelas ask us to suspend reality quite a bit, but Lovely Norton really got me! I mean - "Lovely?!" Are you kidding me? No self-respecting gringo/a would name their kid that. Sometimes I think they are purposefully poking fun at gringolandia with Steve's character - the weird English, the ridiculous clothes, the goofy, awkward singing - and Jesus Christ! Oh well, I guess it's payback for all the insults American movies and television have done to Mexicans for decades...
I'm also perplexed as to how they are going to convincingly put Venus off as an American. Presumably Steve has no familial ties to Mexico - seems unlikely that he would have a niece who speaks perfect Spanish and no English...
