| Tunisia 2-3 Cameroon
Anyway how do you get a job where you can watch a game and jot down some funny remarks? I'd do it for free!" he adds, with uncanny knowledge of the GU remuneration system. Oh... he hasn't finished. "Anyway it's £40 on Cameroon and one girlfriend relegated to the bedroom with soap operas to entertain." Ah, the enlightenment. On the pitch, the Cameroon team are singing their National Anthem with admirable tunelessness. No team news yet, I'm afraid. Ah, here you go: Tunisia: 1-Hamdi Kasraoui; 3-Karim Hagui, 5-Wissem Bekri, 6-Radhouane Felhi, 15-Radhi Jaidi; 8-Mehdi Nafti, 7-Chaouki Ben Saada, 12-Joahar Mnari, 21-Medji Traoui; 9-Yassine Chikhaoui, 11-Francileudo dos Santos Cameroon: 1-Idriss Carlos Kameni; 8-Geremi, 23-Andre Bikey, 4-Rigobert Song, 5-Timothee Atouba; 10-Achille Emana, 11-Jean Makoun, 15-Alexandre Song, 19-Stephane Mbia; 17-Mohamadou Idrissou, 9-Samuel Eto'o Referee: Koman Coulibaly (Mali) We're off: Cameroon kick off and immediately charge into the Tunisian area.
TELEVISION: The shows must go on
America's love for nonscripted programming will be put to the test in the coming weeks — along with their ability to tell the truth, remember the eighth grade and knock a gladiator off a podium with a foam-padded stick.Although the Writers Guild of America's strike may end at four months if published rumors hold true, networks that long ago exhausted most of their original programming still need reality shows — which are not covered under the guild — to give viewers something new during the February sweeps and beyond; even if the strike were to end this week, it would take a couple months for new, scripted shows to get through the creative process.Following is a roundup compiled from network releases and other sources of what new series, specials and other stop-gaps the networks have planned for the next few months.
Political Insider
Four Georgia congressmen who support Romney held a conference call on Saturday, in which they dismissed the endorsement of McCain by Isakson and Chambliss as an example of Senate "clubiness." "The Senate's a universe of 100 people. They almost seem to be removed from their constituents. I don't know if they sprinkle them with some sort of dust or whatever," said U.S. Rep. Lynn Westmoreland of Coweta County. Permalink | Comments (399) | .

The only reason Eddie and Dave smile together is that they are doing the math in their heads of how much coin they are making each night. Way too much overindulgence for a drum and guitar solo. Hopefully the Duluth show they will redeem themselves. Somebody get me a doctor… .

Changes coming for Daufuskie Island ferry service
Dating back to the early '90s, Beaufort County and the state of South Carolina have paid for limited ferry service for Daufuskie Island residents. The service is expected to continue, but a community panel hopes a new identification card system will make it harder for non-residents and private contractors to ride for free. What the Daufuskie Island Community Improvement Club -- the island's de facto governing body -- came up with is anID system that allows the club to create a list of full-time residents eligible to use the ferry. More than 100 people posed in recent weeks for the photo IDs, which Terri Painter, who's coordinating the effort for the Daufuskie club, says will prevent non-residents from using up pricey vouchers. "In my opinion, if they don't live here full time, they shouldn't get an ID because they'd be wasting the (resident) taxpayers' ...
Will the Prince Turn Pauper?
Prince Jefri Bolkiah of Brunei once was one of the wealthiest men in the world. Now he's worried he may soon be homeless and forced into bankruptcy. "They want me to give it all back," he says, flanked by giant Dutch landscape paintings and billowing gold drapery in the cavernous living room of his London villa, where he resides with one of his three wives and two of his 18 children. "We don't know where we are going to live." The 53-year-old younger brother of the Sultan of Brunei, Prince Jefri is on the losing end of one of the world's most colorful family feuds. It started a decade ago, when the prince was stripped of his government roles and later accused by Brunei authorities of misappropriating $14.8 billion of the royal treasury's money. He denies that, but there's no doubt much had been expended on Prince Jefri's famously sybaritic lifestyle.

They would have killed him even if the money was paid to them as per the plan.

Pink iPod nano debuts for spring, Valentine's, pink lovers
I have a tale to tell my friends (that's you guys) here at Infinite Loop. I received a text message from a friend of mine who works at a retail outlet last night (not an Apple Store), asking me if there was a new Apple announcement yesterday. I wrote back and said "no, why?" He proceeded to tell me that his store just got a shipment of pink iPod nanos. I went to the iPod nano page on Apple's site to check out the color lineup and saw the reddish/magenta color, and assumed that's what he was referring to. I moved on with my life. This morning, Apple announced a new, truly pink iPod nano. D'oh! Good job losing that scoop, Jacqui. Happy Birthday to me. Moving along, the "gorgeous" pink iPod nano, as Apple refers to it, is available immediately in 8GB for $199.
First steps for a marriage made in Spring Street
Invitations to the wedding breakfast haven't yet been dispatched, but the happy couple promised that at least five Nats would partake with them at the head table, which probably means fewer Liberals and a few noses out of joint. But, hey, you can't have absolutely everyone at the reception. In the end their union simply made sense: the pair saw eye-to-eye on all the big issues, none more so than the state's water needs and John Brumby's "betrayal" of the bush, as well as the Government's willingness to "divide Victorians". Baillieu nominated a pervading whiff of corruption in the Garden State as a further spur to their alliance; problem gambling another, though in the past the newlyweds have bickered about how best to beat it. But, no, this wasn't a "rush back to the altar", as suggested by one observer.
