It seems that Sam likes Textpad for C#.   It's nice to see another TextPad user; I have been using this editor for about three years now.  I think it's a good feature set for the price.

Saw Kill Bill vol. 2 this weekend.  Better than vol.1   There was more of a story as well as depth to the characters.  A bit less

gratuitous spraying of blood (yes, I understand that Tarantino took some liberties, but I didn't necessarily enjoy it)

 

We also watched Out of Time, Mona Lisa Smile, and Matchstick Men.   One word to sum them all: predictable.

Cincinnati is going to be in Dateline NBC's spotlight: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4702018/ .

They are going to discuss their report from a fourteen-month investigation into racial profiling by the CPD. 

Among the conclusions reached by "Dateline:" Black motorists were targeted three times more often than white drivers for non-moving violations, such as broken taillights or missing license plates.

.........

The president of the Fraternal Order of Police issued the following statement: "I expect Dateline NBC to have the same conclusion as the Federal Justice Department. There simply was not, nor is there now, a pattern or practice of racial profiling by the Cincinnati Police Department."

Reality?  Media sensationalism?  hmm.
