Gee!. Can't wait to watch the episodes. I was born and raised in Aparri and jsut found out that one of the teams is named for my town sake. Cagayan is a beautiful province in Northern Philippines. Lust vegetations, unexplored forests, unspoiled beaches, caves and very friendly people. From Manila, you can take plush bus ride (airconditioned, singular sit and non-stop) for 10 hours overnight. By morning, you would reach Aparri, where the Cagayan River meets the Babuyan Sea. Enjoy the fresh seafoods, both salt and fresh water. Open a radio while you are the beach and you will hear stations from Taipei or Hongkong.. thank yo to the producers of the show for featuring my province.

Chris Brown - Exclusive
Production: Bryan Michael Cox, Dre & Vidal, Jazze Pha, Kanye West, Scott Storch, Stargate, Swizz Beatz, T-Pain, The-Dream, The Runners, The Underdogs, Tank, Will.I.Am
Lead Single: Wall to Wall
Avg Rating: 4.4 ( 42 total votes )
As I watched Chris Brown swagger and glide his way to glory on the 2007 MTV Awards I could barely hold back the comparisons. He had the showmanship of Prince, the dance moves of Michael Jackson and the energy of Bobby Brown (pre-crackhead Bobby). Finally, I thought, here's a man ready to take the king of R&B title Usher has so woefully neglected. Omarion, Trey Songz, Mario; they're all good, but they're just not music royalty. After watching Chris deliver a performance so dope Diddy's head almost exploded I decided, in the immortal words of …

DJBooth Album Review
The only thing missing was the music. I mean the poor kid was so tired by the end of the show he could barely stand, let alone sing. I figured that little problem would be solved with the release of his sophomore album Exclusive. Turns out I got a little overanxious. Exclusive is many things; the most danceable album in recent memory, the record of a boy becoming a full grown man, but it ultimately falls short of monumental status. Just to be sure I went back and listened to Usher's landmark album Confessions - I encourage you to do the same - and there's no doubt who's still the king. Just don't sleep, Chris Brown's definitely got next.
Brown's real strength is making the kind of dance music even the gangsters want to get down to, even if they'll never admit it. The first single off the album is Wall to Wall, a bouncing track with some absolutely knocking Swizz Beatz production. There's no secret formula to the song's success; Brown's personality makes up for the minimal vocal power outage and the subject matter is women, women and more women. Wall to Wall's a perfectly enjoyable R&B/pop track, but it's no Kiss Kiss. This is the song that had me believing, if only for three minutes, that Brown might just take the title after all. That bass line does something to your spine from the first note and T-Pain crafts the kind of addictive hook that's put him on top. Even more surprisingly the vocoder effect on the track isn't on Mr. Pain's vocals but on Brown's, giving his normally squeaky-clean voice some much-needed grit. Don't front tough guy, you're feelin Kiss Kiss too. Now if I could only figure out if he's saying "she wants that lovey-dovey" or "laffy taffy."
Where Chris Brown stumbles, and noticeably so, is on the slow jams. It's just hard to believe someone whose posse consists of two nine-year-old kids that can really get freaky. Take You Down is exactly the point where the gap between him and Usher becomes apparent. The track starts off with a sultry saxophone solo and minimally grinding beats before Brown smoothly glides onto the scene with his best imitation of some 112-styled lyrics. It shouldn't be a surprise he comes off as the teenager he is, after all the chorus is, "It ain't my first time, but baby girl we can pretend." Similarly Damage is an almost blatant attempt at another Confessions, complete with slowly burning production from The Runners and a monologue from Brown apologizing to his girl for cheating. But instead of some desperately soulful vocals we get Brown's almost embarrassed attempt to get his girl back. I honestly don't think he could have done anything more. In three years Brown should be able to deliver some truly sheet-twisting jams, but for now he's still a rookie.
The majority of Exclusive finds Chris at a crossroads; he's trying to hang onto his teenage fans while simultaneously striving to win some adult respect. With You's acoustic guitars and live drums sound so much like Stargate's other smash hit Irreplaceable they should sue themselves. If I was a teenage girl I'd probably be tearing up listening to Chris sing "there's hearts all over the world," that not being the case I was searching for the skip button. On the flip side Scott Storch does his best to give Chris some over-21 club appeal on Nice, a cameo from The Game never hurts, and the effect is a scorching hot song with plenty of dance breaks that's sure to become a single. All this makes Chris Brown R&B's Lebron James, a future champion that still needs a few more years to mature. Hear that Usher? Chris Brown's coming for you, what are you gonna do?

"I was very happy with the design and fast arrival of our Bday card. All of my guest told me how cute our invite was. The colors and print came out perfect. My only problem was with the free RSVP website. My URL was not working and I noticed they wrote the URL wrong. However my guest received their invites and we're not able to RSVP to the site. The problem did end up getting fixed, but I had to ask my guest to go to the website to RSVP to the party. I must say that was a bit of a headache. Over all I love the quality of the card and will use them again."
"My daughter's birthday invitation is so cute and elegant at the same time! It's not overbearing. Moms have already commented on the Princess invitation and how nice it is and I already recommended the Tiny Prints company."
"I absolutely loved the designed but expected better quality pictures. I can't tell if it is an error on my end or a flaw in the printing of the invitations."
"I love how the invite turned out. I wish the picture on the front would have been better placed; however, that's probably my fault. The best part was the customer service. Have a professional review the invite before they print. They did a great job getting a hold of me and reminding me how urgent it was to get done. The first picture I chose was a little blurry and they didn't want me to be dis-satisfied. They turned out adorable!"
"These invitations are adorable. They are perfect for my car and truck loving two year old. The paper is very nice quality and best of all...they shipped FAST! I received them in three days!"

Old 'Boy' Threatens, Chases Chalking Activist
"You takin' my photo…boy?" asserted an upset man who arrived on Central Square yesterday afternoon and proceeded to utter profanities at several individual chalkers while in the presence of small children. Arriving once to futilely smudge chalkings with his feet, the man left to return several minutes later to try further smudging before threatening and chasing a videographer. During his activity, he even blurted out egotistically, "My sidewalk!" What would inspire someone to behave so entitled and unneighborly?

You have to wonder: Did he see my game plan?

It took 38 seconds for Tennessee to show there's a chance "Rocky Top" may be heard at the Georgia Dome again in December.
The Volunteers scored 16 points in 38 seconds in the first half and used that momentum to defeat N.C. State 35-21 on Friday in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game at the Georgia Dome in front of 55,529 attendees.
Playing without Calhoun's Da'Rick Rogers, and appearing not to need the troubled wide receiver who was dismissed from the team last week, quarterback Tyler Bray and the Volunteers had no trouble doing most anything it wanted offensively against what is supposed to be one of the better defenses in the ACC. Bray passed for 332 yards and two TDs, outdueling N.C. State's Mike Glennon (288 yards, one TD, four interceptions), and the Vols shredded the Wolfpack for 526 yards.
"It was a great game," Bray said. "We haven't won here since the National Championship. This was great for the state of Tennessee."
The victory snapped a six-game losing streak for the Vols in Georgia Dome, dating back to the 2001 SEC Championship game. This year's SEC title game will be played at the Dome on Dec. 1. The Vols may very well be back if the offense can continue its balanced play and the defense can continue to make big plays, which included a safety and four turnovers.
"I already know what you guys are going to say. It's one game," Tennessee coach Derek Dooley said to the media after the game. "It doesn't mean anything other than we won the first game."
The victory improved the SEC to 4-1 in Chick-fil-A Kickoff games, with each victory coming against an ACC team, a fact the Tennessee fans had no trouble reminding their foes from the ACC of near the end of the game. The ACC dropped to 0-4 in another toe-stubbing performance for the conference in a marquee game. Clemson, the conference champs, will be the next to take a crack at beating an SEC team in the Chick-fil-A series when it takes on Auburn on Saturday at the Dome.
"It just game down to too many big plays we gave up on defense," N.C. State coach Tom O'Brien said. " We turned the ball over too many times. What it boils down to is too many long plays and long drives."
The game went back-and-forth early. Bray hit Cordarrelle Patterson for a 41-yard touchdown pass to take a 7-0 lead on the Vols' second possession. Dooley said Patterson may have run the wrong route, "but that's the great thing about Bray, he doesn't care." Patterson ran right by David Amerson,.
The Wolfpack answered with a 2-yard scoring run by Tony Creecy to take a 7-6 lead with 5:15 left in the quarter.
Prentiss Waggner intercepted Glennon's short pass near the 40-yard line on fourth down on the Wolfpack's next drive.
Bray and Tennessee's defense then unloaded in a thrilling 38-second span.
On the next play, Bray hit Zach Rogers, who also beat Amerson by several yards, for a 72-yard touchdown. Amerson, who led the country last year with 13 interceptions, said he thought he had deep help on the play. The Vols didn't miss the point-after this time to take a 13-7 lead with 1:07 left.
Taking over at his 19-yard line, Glennon tried to stiffarm linebacker Curt Maggitt in an attempt to buy more time on first down. Instead, Maggitt punched the ball out of Glennon's hand. An N.C. State player fell on the ball in the end zone for a safety to give Tennessee a 15-7 lead with 51 seconds left in the first quarter.
And then it got even worse for the Wolfpack.
Taking over at his 33-yard line after the kick, Bray handed the ball to Patterson, crossing left behind him, and Patterson ran 67 zig-zagging yards to give the Vols a 22-7 lead with 29 seconds left.
O'Brien said the boom-boom-boom spell didn't affect his team.
"We kept playing, we just didn't play good enough," he said.
N.C. State answered with a 2-yard scoring run by Washington to cut the lead to 22-14 with 3:42 left.
Tennessee took a 29-14 lead on their first possession of the second half when Rajion Neal plowed in from 8 yards out, breaking three tackles.
"We missed a lot of tackles," O'Brien said.
Tennessee safety Byron Moore intercepted Glennon at the 30 later in the quarter and returned it to N.C. State's 45. The Volunteers eventually kicked a 20-yard field goal to increase their lead to 32-14 with 1:28 left in the third quarter.
It was one of three interceptions in the half by the Vols' defense, which limited the Wolfpack to 169 yards in the second half after posting 238 in the first.
"We're going to have to learn how to grit through four quarters," Dooley said. "There's a lot of adversity in a football game. We didn't handle it very well in the first half, but did better in the second half. I'm proud of the way we finished."

The supermoto version of a rubbish bike, the D-Tracker 125 is based on the titchy KLX125 trail-style learner machine. Not a great start in life – the D-Tracker's supermoto-style road wheels and tyres are a minor improvement, but there's nothing to recommend it unless you're exceptionally short.
625cc, 54bhp, 110mph, Insurance group 11
If you're used to smooth riding, civilized singles like BMW's F650 range then KTM's 640 Adventure will come as something of a shock. It's very vibey, absurdly tall, not that comfortable and pre-2004 models suffer from patchy engine reliability. Having said that in the muddy side of its dual-purpose role it's untouchable for handling, presence and rugged toughness.
656cc, 77bhp, 120mph, Insurance group 11
A well-mannered middleweight that's simple to use, cheap to buy and cheap to run. The Suzuki GSF650 Bandit doesn't particularly excel in any one department, but for newer riders it's worth considering with a low seat height and forgiving manners. The GSF650 Bandit's capacity advantage over its older GSF600 Bandit sibling doesn't actually translate into significantly more go.
904cc, 70bhp, 117mph, Insurance group 12
Cagiva's Gran Canyon is a great motorcycle to ride, with nimble handling, lazy, easy-to-love power and plenty of tuning potential. Sadly, though, it's let down by crummy component quality and ridiculous servicing costs. It shines around town or on A-roads, but it's a less assured performer on longer, faster routes.

"Good on you"?? That presupposes (1) he wrote it, and (2) he means it. I don't believe either one.
The text of LeBron's message, where he congratulates the Dallas Mavericks, thanks his fans, teammates and coaches:
Congratulations Mavericks on the championship
…especially Dirk, J.Kidd, & Terry who have done so much for our league and worked so hard to get here.They deserve all the credit for what they have accomplished.Thank you to all my family, friends and especially the fans for standing by me this year.Miami fans are incredible.A special thank you to my teammates, coaches and Pat Riley and Micky Arison for all of their support.A lot to learn from this year, a lot to build on, and a lot of work to do this summer.
I've been hating on LeBron here at the Sportress all season, but I'll admit that this was a classy maneuver by King James. Finally. It demonstrates a humility not seen from James in, well, perhaps ever.
Good on you, LeBron. Maybe we've been wrong about this guy. Maybe he can figure it out after all.
[via lebronjames.com]
"Good on you"?? That presupposes (1) he wrote it, and (2) he means it. I don't believe either one.
Giving Lebaby way too much credit. This is PR damage control to keep the dollars coming in. Classy wouldn't have a autograph with his number. Classy would have included an apology.
Too little, too late. This letter is exactly what reporters have been saying he should have done immediately after the game — 2 days later. Total damage control.
No one gives him a break at all, huh? What has he done to you personally. Why should he apologize? Did the Mavs apologize for their trash talking? Everyone loves to say he and the heat are "classless" but who started with the negative comments? It wasn't the Heat. It was the Mavs. Who started the brawl in game 6? It was the Mavs. Why are you all such haters? Are you even Dallas fans? If you are congrats on your win, your team deserved. If your not, shut up! You have no room to talk… Including the Cavs fans.
I'm getting tired of all the negative lebron stuff, he lost thats got to be enough of a beat down on the kid.
I've never followed Lebron in the past, but his story piqued my interest when I read so much negative press about him and the Heat this winter, especially after "Crygate". When other storied fanchises lost five in a row, no big deal, but the Heat were vilified. I watched them come together as a team, and I watched with some admiration as Lebron maintained his cool in the face of the Mav's language. He's grown this year and I dearly hope he plays more in the low post and gets the championships he and the Heat want. His flaws are human and we all have things we could improve upon. The media is pandering to the hate and envy of warped portion of the public. Not everyone hates or disrespects you. Make the changes you need to make personally and professionally, and I'll be smiling when you finally win the championship. You can do it big fella.
Fuck you're gullible. I'm LeBron, donate to my charity through my PayPal account?
This guy lebron is a cry baby who doesn't have humility….he's an arrogant sob…he is not a king but a Prince to me….go get a life lechoke !!!

Ann Holley wanted to create an off-grid, transportable tiny house that would be technically an RV, but with an aesthetic that wouldn't feel like living in an RV. What she created with her partner Darren Macca is a 125-square-foot "stick built" home with a cedar exterior and a refreshing and expanding all-white interior. "Living in something the size of an RV doesn't actually have to be like living in an RV," explains Holley. (more…)

Let me just start off by saying that as someone who has done a good amount of metal work, including working with old railroad track, that the amount of work and time that must have gone into cutting the track for these pieces is monumental. That being said, there must be a good reason for the output of effort, which you can see in this striking collection of furniture. Rail Yard Studios uses what would otherwise be scrap leftover from the replacement, repair, and upgrading of rail lines in the southeastern US to make contemporary furniture.
Sustainability has always been synonymous with the railroad, and the functional furnishings from Rail Yard Studios are pure railroad. Our steel rails are salvage material, and we rescue the crossties from the tie plant furnace.
Handmade in America of 100% American materials, every work is one of a kind – individually numbered and cataloged. Each design is copyrighted and becomes a unique work that preserves a vanishing piece of history.
Now, if you know anything about railroads, you may have had a major red-flag moment at seeing the railroad crossties used, knowing that they are normally treated with creosote, among other chemical you do not want to touch. The difference is that these timbers have never been used.
First, we do not use creosoted ties. We use only new ties that have not yet been treated in any way. These timbers were "culled" as seconds, marked and destined for the furnace before we intercepted them from that fate. We stain some ties to give them color, and we seal all of the ties with finishes just like you would find on hardwood floors or a piece of fine furniture.
These ties were singled out because of excessive knots, splits, warps or other imperfections. While those features make those ties less than ideal for running 180,000 pound rail cars over them, they add great character to our pieces.
You may share our sentiment – it bothers us that a tree gets cut down and then not used for its intended purpose. But we're proud that these timbers will have a more elegant and longer life sheltered from the elements in the safety of our patron's homes and offices.
Which means, that among other things, I would trust them with my wine and books.
An interesting note is that Robert Hendrick, one of the founders of Yard Rail Studios, has an industrial design background, just like ourselves, and is also aiming to preserve the history of the materials that they recover.
Robert Hendrick and his father Jim are the men behind Rail Yard Studios. In retrospect, it was inevitable that they would end up working with steel and wood. Jim began his professional life as a carpenter's assistant, and it became a lifelong hobby that he passed along to his son. Robert's grandfather, Jim's dad, owned a steel foundry in Red Boiling Springs, Tennessee. [...]
A few years after getting his Bachelors and Master of Arts degree in Industrial Design, Robert purchased a railroad contracting company. Out on the rails, he saw century old names like Carnegie, Bethlehem, Illinois and Tennessee and dates from 1911, 1916 and even 1899 being sold for scrap.
Unwilling to simply let history be wiped away, Robert set about planning Rail Yard Studios and got his railroad crew involved when they got an occasional slow day on the line. Today he preserves the legacy of the rails and encourages others to join in the effort through the pieces they purchase from the studio.
It is great to know that when someone sees history headed for the scrap heap, they do not just stand back, but set out to do something about it.

Down Day exercise ?
Hi everyone!
Thanks for everyone's patience with me. I am hanging in there today, this DD.
I am very much trying to run a marathon, one day. So, I run on the road 3 miles Tues and Thurs while my daughter is at school, and Sundays while I have a sitter I run longer. Currently 4 miles but it gets a little longer every week.
I cross train on Mon, Wed, and Fridays- which is 30-40 minutes on the elliptical at an aerobic heart rate. The heart rate monitor says 320 calories. I do not work out on Saturdays.
I tried DD on Tues and Thurs with midday to balance it and eating my calories back. I am not really losing, it's been right at two weeks. I stay LC for health reasons, and want to loose w JUDDD but also health reasons.
Example- DD Sunday 500 cal+ Run (350-400) - total of 900
Monday- 2300 total - elliptical calories 320
Tues DD(repeat Sunday )
Wednesday- Midday 1100- 900 total calories total. Elliptical
Thursday-DD repeat Sunday- Run
Friday- 2300 total elliptical
Sat- 500 total- no exercise.
Now this isn't exact,obviously, and last week I had to move around rest days with dr appointments...
So, I tried a DD today, my rest day and have done surprisingly well, but I don't know how that run is gonna go tomorrow morning.
I much prefer training fasted and eating after.
Anyway, I can't ask the running forum because they don't understand JUDDD, and freak out.
Idk what to do.
Try a protein shake wo calories on DDs?
I do sooo much better with liquids until dinner time, but I can't do nothing [ grammar I know ] and train.
I really appreciate any help.
I am kind of wondering if it is possible.
I run on my elliptical usually 2.2 miles a few times per week. I always do it in the evening and usually in a fasted state. It works for me.
I never added/ ate back exercise calories and have no problem working out on the evening of DD. Everyone is different though.
I hope others will weigh in.
I work out 6 days a week so 3 DD's and 3 UD's every week. The only thing I make sure of is that I'm well hydrated. Other than that working out on DD's doesn't affect me and I have great energy. I do make it a point to do my resistance workout on UD's because the body needs protein to build good muscle. I stick to cardio exclusively on DD's.
It helps so much, just knowing it can be done.
I am optimistic.
I am going to change DD to elliptical days, and not sure how to work in the mid day since I have set rotation days.
Maybe as I gain experience w JUDDD and working out I can do a straight EOD rotation.
Thank y'all again!
I am going to be starting Monday. I run 4ish days a week, do cross training (swimming more than anything) a couple days and some strength as well. I am switching to JUDDD because of my workout scheduling more than anything. I really like the aspect of ADF and in the past when I have done IF, my workouts on fasting days were great.
I am also working my way through the distances of running races, starting with a 6K this upcoming Saturday. I want to culminate (but not stop) my training in May with a marathon as well.
Let me know how it works for you and I will keep you informed with my progress as well.

High level components in LCDUI
MIDP provides a set of both high and low-level APIs to create user interfaces. Both have their pros and cons: while working with high-level interfaces is usually faster and more cross-compatible, by using low-level graphics you can create more attractive and customized applications.
High-Level API
This set of APIs is useful for those applications where portability is important, since interfaces built by using high-level components are automatically adapted to different display resolutions, orientations and input methods.
To preserve the portability, you have a little control on the visual appearance (i.e., you cannot change the colors and the fonts of the component).
Code Examples
Here is a list of code examples showing how to use specific high-level user interface components:
- Multiple list
- TextBox
- Implicit list
- Exclusive list
- Choice group
- Popup choice group
- Date field
- Gauge

I find it mildly amusing that a current exhibit at the Oktibbeha county Heritage Museum in Starkville, Mississippi features a huge black bear which stands at least five feet tall. He is part of an exhibit featuring Mississippi wildlife, loaned by Bill Poe.
What makes it so unusual is that the black bear has been chosen as the mascot for that "school 90 miles up north" to replace Colonel Rebel. Of course, Ole Miss is Mississippi State's most virulent rival. Imagine the Mississippi State Bulldog being featured at the Ole Miss lyceum.

7 Essential Skills You Didn't Learn in College

Writing for New Forms
Why take this course?
You can write a cogent essay, but can you write it in 140 characters or less?
What you'll learn:
How to adapt your message to multiple formats and audiences—human and machine.
riting used to mean arranging words in a particular order to be printed with ink on the cellulosic entrails of a tree. You wrote for people, and you hoped that the marks you made would leave a permanent impression upon the world. Today, writing can refer to anything from posting a one-line status update on Facebook to dashing off a 10,000-word blog entry. Your readers include not just humans but algorithms, and your goal is not immortality but a momentary piercing of the ever-shifting zeitgeist.
There are more writing opportunities than ever, but they require skills that Strunk and White never dreamed of. This course will teach you how to Photoshop images to create a narrative, edit a 20-second YouTube video, compress your thoughts into 140 characters (or clarify them into a PowerPoint presentation that won't put your audience to sleep), write a wiki entry that encourages other people to edit and adapt it, and ensure your work goes viral, turning readers into vectors for your ideas.
Technical skills, however, are not enough. Writing successfully requires knowing how to attract niche audiences with depth and detail. To demonstrate this, we'll contrast The New York Times Magazine's profile of Yankee pitcher Mariano Rivera with the accompanying Web video of the nearly 1,300 pitches Rivera threw during the 2009 baseball season.
The role of the writer is also changing. In the age of objectivity, writers kept their personalities out of their work. But now, the author's identity is paramount; readers have to believe you offer a unique—and trustworthy—perspective. Tone and personality are once again central to writing, not something to be smoothed and scrubbed. We'll study the work of The Atlantic's Andrew Sullivan, who built a blog empire with an informal voice that makes readers feel as if they are accessing his unvarnished thoughts; New York Times blogger Andrew Revkin, who encourages reader loyalty by posting long passages from the emails that they send him; and director Kevin Smith, who recounts sex with his wife in lascivious detail to keep his 1.7 million Twitter followers hitting Refresh.
Writing today also means mastering metatext, the cues and context that determine how, where, and if your words get read. We'll learn that winning links depends on appealing to the unique tastes of different social networks. Each link will help you attract your most influential audience—the algorithms that determine where your story ends up in Google's search results. As we optimize our writing for this cyborg readership, we'll also learn the new tenets of writing well: Be conspicuous, be entertaining, and leave space for others to talk.

The whole cast of Workaholics was in Arrested Development!
I came
'Arrested Development' Revival: Entire Cast Confirmed For Netflix Series With Original Writers ↘
The entire original cast of "Arrested Development" — Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, Jeffrey Tambor, David Cross, Michael Cera, Portia De Rossi, Tony Hale, Alia Shawkat and Jessica Walter — will be back for the new season on Netflix, according to writer Dean Lorey.
Lorey took to his blog to share the news.
"We're really doing this thing," he wrote. "Mitch Hurwitz, Jim Vallely and I are off writing the new season of 'Arrested' to premiere on Netflix in 2013."
To all the skeptics out there, Lorey confirmed that production is underway, even though the schedule is under wraps. "There are offices and parking spaces," he wrote. The new season is slated to debut on Netflix in 2013, with a film to follow.
"Arrested Development" creator Hurwitz first announced the series' revival in October 2011 at the The New Yorker Festival. "Arrested Development" originally aired for three seasons on Fox from 2003-2006 and movie rumors kicked off soon after cancellation; but now, more than five years later, the Bluths are officially returning.
The current plan is for a 10 episode series for Netflix followed by a feature film. Series star Bateman confirmed the news shortly after it was announced in October.
Ten Things You Didn't Know About Arrested Development
This past weekend we found out that Arrested Development will return to television in a nine- or ten-episode limited-run series, set to film next summer, with each episode focusing on a single member of the Bluth clan. And series creator Mitchell Hurwitz said that he is halfway through the screenplay for a reunion film and is "eighty per cent" sure it will happen.
Among the other revelations shared over the ninety-minute program at the New Yorker Festival were the following:
9.The pilot scripts came with a cover letter which warned cast members that there would be no fancy trailers and no tolerance for diva-like behavior.
8. David Cross had to fight for the mustache worn by his character, Tobias Funke, because Fox executive Gail Berman had a standing rule for men in comedies: no hats, no mustaches, no fluffy shirts.
7. The character of Oscar Bluth was born one day "on the fly" when Jeffrey Tambor walked into the writer's room wearing a wig. "The next day, Oscar was born," he said.
6. According to Will Arnett, nobody made other cast members "break" (i.e. crack up in the middle of a take) more than Tony Hale.
5. Alia Shawkat shared her first kiss onscreen with Michael Cera. "It's changed me for the rest of my life," she joked.
4. "Arrested Development" was cancelled before Nielsen began measuring DVR viewership, which Bateman thinks was the show's natural format. "I think people quickly realized, 'Well, I'm better served to watch this show after I've recorded it,'" he said.
3. When asked about the Bluth family's ambiguous religious identity, Hurwitz said they were originally based on his wife's family: "It started, it had a real Gentile vibe to it, but it got more Jewish."
2. Hurwitz and executives at Fox were reluctant to cast Jason Bateman because of his sitcom past, but were instantly won over by his audition.
1. The fake teasers at the end of each episode began, as Hurwitz put it, as "a craven way to get the pilot picked up. Anything to create that promise of 'You've got to come back!'"

The Kyoto Protocol on global warming may be dying politically, but intellectually it lives on: Its complex, costly structure has convinced just about everyone that action on climate change is possible only through painful sacrifice. Presumably that's why President Bush has proposed nothing to address the problem -- because he's convinced that really tackling it will harm the economy. But only in Kyotoland must greenhouse reform be onerous. There are practical steps the president can take immediately that will do a great deal of good at a very reasonable price. In fact, Kyoto's demise may be a blessing in disguise. It creates a fabulous opportunity to switch from costly, cumbersome greenhouse ideas to affordable ones that actually work.If Kyoto can be exceeded by simple measures such as better insulation of old homes, as the Globe and Mail article above suggests, then the rhetoric used by both sides is overwrought.

I was the guy who handled the darker side of things…
Marked by Life and Death magic, Shame Flynn and Terric Conley are "breakers"—those who can use magic to its full extent. Most of the time, they can barely stand each other, but they know they have to work together to defeat a common enemy—rogue magic user Eli Collins.
Backed by the government, Eli is trying to use magic as a weapon by carving spells into the flesh of innocents and turning them into brainless walking bombs. To stop him, Shame and Terric will need to call on their magic, even as it threatens to consume them—because the price they must pay to wield Life and Death could change the very fate of the world…and magic itself.

The first is the W3C's VoiceXML (VXML) standard, which is an XML specification for voice and telephone keypad interactions with the Web. VXML pages are interpreted by a voice browser, much as HTML is interpreted by a Web browser. The forthcoming third version will permit similar interactions using SMS and instant messaging.
The State Chart XML (SCXML) standard looks to be a key enabler of synchronized processing of multimodal voice and Web interactions, so customers can talk to your call center on their smartphones and simultaneously use their keypad to choose from a list of options in the phone's Web browser. For example, if a customer calls an airline to find out his flight is cancelled, the voice portal can send a Web page of new flights to his smartphone, so he can book one without a live agent.
The third key standard is Call Control XML (CCXML), which handles call processing, including how to take, accept, transfer, record a call, as well as set up a conference.
It's not necessary to understand these standards in depth, as most vendors offer drag-and-drop graphical development tools that hide all that XML code and provide reusable code for many common VoiceXML interactions. Many of these tools take advantage of the open source Eclipse development environment, which is familiar to most Web developers. There are several open source IVR efforts as well.
Implementing voice interfaces and recognition can be tricky
The one area that does require specialized expertise is the interface for touch-tone interactions and speech recognition, known collectively as the voice user interface. Voice UIs follow a different paradigm from Web page interactions and so require specialized training. However, a team of voice portal developers probably needs only one or two voice UI experts; your telecom group may already have such specialists, and voice portal vendors are happy to do the consulting work for you. Once the voice UI is designed and perfected, the IVR project can be completed by typical Web developers.
Implementing speech recognition is particularly difficult. "The skills around developing speech applications are pretty stringent, says Brian Bischoff, global vice president of subscriber solutions at Genesys, a Web conferencing vendor. "A speech application can perform pretty poorly if you don't know what you're doing." Speech recognition vendors include Nuance, Tuvox, and Voxify.
If you implement speech recognition, do note that your enablement fees per port will rise significantly. It typically costs $1,000 to $2,000 per port to enable a voice portal. With speech recognition, that expense climbs to $1,800 to $3,600 per port, says Bischoff.
Many larger companies have multiple IVR systems in place. If so, it makes sense to look for tools that can create a common voice UI over several different voice portal systems. Telecom provider T-Mobile International faced that challenge, ultimately using Voxeo's tools to develop a single voice UI across its mishmash of voice portals spread across many European countries, the result of several acquisitions. "We can also make a single change across them all, rather than having to make separate changes to each of them," says Jan Safka, T-Mobile's senior head of voice and mobile services.
