yep

Nope, not weather but work related.

Watched some “highlights” of the Republican debate, my impression they were all mainlining stupid in a concentrated form.

Err autoloader threw an error so just missed another wicket. 😆

Yes!!!

Yes! Left the desk to go change backup tapes come back to 2 wickets.

So much for my attempt at the curse.

Well if you’ve got a ticket for Saturday you’ll certainly be smiling.

The Ozzies are defiantly being crueller about this than we are

yep

Blowers has gone for a cold shower and lay down on 5 live. 😆

Here Maps on windows phone are excellent assume they’re equally as good on android.

edit so good in fact that Audi, Daimler and BMW are buying them from Nokia http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/08/03/nokia_sells_here_maps_to_audi_daimler_and_bmw_for_28_billion/

2nd edit ignore if you mean off-road navigation

Looks fun but probably wouldn’t use it. With the wake behind the wave reminds me of tanker surfing they do over in Texas.

We got sent a happy Sysadmin Day cake by the makers of our new call logging software only got it today as the manager it was addressed to was away Sysadmin Day was Friday. 🙁

Brought a 2015 Cinder Cone and I love it.*

*It’s the first mtb I’ve brought in 13 or more years last was a long serving Trek 4900. Until I brought it last month I’d not been on a bike for over a year.

Would be out on it now but I’m on call this week, but I could have easily felt the same about another bike. Do feel a lot more comfortable on steep descents that I did on the Trek.

Bell dropped by Clark

24 runs from the first 3 overs lead by 47.

Jimmy is officially out for Trent Bridge.

ECB statement released on Thursday morning said: “England bowler James Anderson has been ruled out of remainder of the current Investec Ashes Test with a side strain.

“Anderson will be unavailable for the 4th Test beginning on Thursday 6 August at Trent Bridge and his availability for the final Test in the series will be determined in due course.”

That was the point in picking U571 timba, Hollywood takes massive liberties with the phrase based on a true story. 😉

U571

Extended trailer.

Mr Robot is great definitely a step up in the realism stakes. Like the small details even the episodes are named like files you’d torrent. Plus good script and great acting.

Jimmy Anderson off the field injured, Beefy talking about an intercostal strain which will probably be 6-8 weeks. Shame if he’s out for rest of series.

Graeme Swann impersonating KP on Ozzie radio. I like KP but this is funny.

I lived in Zimbabwe and understand the need for hunting in terms of conservation both for revenue which funds conservation work and population management given that space is restricted. Each year a set number of licences for viable species will be issued. I have no problem with this in fact with the right connections I probably would have considered a career guiding these tourists but didn’t have any connection to hunting community.

But luring a dominant male head of a pride out of the park to land you can make the kill on is wrong, should be looking to hunt an animal past it’s prime. Also 40 hours for a kill is ridiculous if he wants to use a bow he should be prepared to make the kill the same day. Apart from the animals suffering a wounded lion like that is a danger to people living in around the park. Most deaths among professional hunting guides happen when tracking a dispatching animals wounded by clients.

I’m in

Cool should be there.

What is the usual?
Got a new bike the other week need to get out and ride rather than just occasionally posting on a bike forum. 🙂
Ta

How’s that work then?

No worse than being here 😉

Sort of works on touch screen though no ‘space’ and ‘w’ keys on phone.

Donk… hellish repetitive bass heavy mess from the midlands.

Galactic Civilizations 3, like Civ but on a galaxy scale.
XCOM.

The Karate Kid (1984)

This is a pretty good article about Isis that covers motivation for it’s members.

Mate said “It’ll be good Jack’s films are always good.”
Terrible.

You’ve probably already seen them but:
Donnie Darko
Brick
American History X
God Bless America
Super

Don’t know gameplay wise but if you’re after Robotech inspired planes that transform in to robots then Strike Suit Zero looks good.

Ah so that’s where the sample came from, not watched Assault on Precinct 13.

If we’re talking seminal then Xenon 2 earns a place based on music Bomb the Bass’s track certainly raised the bar.

I can’t decide if this video is a troll or a genuine member of CAD

Either way it’s funny.
Edit has to be a troll

Love Lone Wolf and Cub films used have them all on video, first turned on to them and many other great films by Vids on channel 4 back in my student days.
