“Hello There from Windows 7 Beta 1″

Well i am in the beta test for Windows 7 and i am realy liking it. It is a lot faster the Windows Vista and there are some minor changes that make a very big differance to the feel of this Operating System. there is a new version of Windows Media Player and the Tackbar has been merged with the Quick launch toolbart so that you can pin applications to the Taskbar and there is the addition of the improved visual previews of the open windows. there is also the option to see the desctop so that it makes the windows compleatly transparent. where Windows Vista Ultimate had DreamScene Windows 7 dose not but you do have the option to have lots of backgrounds and have them change in intervals from 30 seconds up to once a day.

On Friday (16th January) it was my 18th birthday and had a relitivly good day.

i started by leaving my keys at home so i had to go back home to get them so i could lock my bike up so i was late for college as well. 

After college i had dinner with some family and got some presents and cards then i went home and five mins after i arrived Fish turned up for the “Party”, and then Tom arrived and Jordan was the last to arrive and we had a couple of drinks and played some Guitar Hero III. Towards the end we were on the Interweb (Internet to those not in the know) and watched some music videos and then this:

oh and this:

The last couple of days i have been watching Bill Bailey and Doctor Who as well as playing Halo at Tom’s and playing games online on my DS .

Quoat:

“Yes” Carl, Yes Man

Based on the book by Danny Walliace

Before i forget i have seen Yes Man and it is a brilliant film.

Programing, Animation and Spredsheets

Posted in college with tags , , , on Thursday 8 January, 2009 by stargatefreek

Ok so i have been back at college for almost a week and so far i have started three new Units, UNIT 6 – Advanced Spreadsheet Skills, UNIT 18 – Principles of Software Design and Development and UNIT 26 – Computer Animation.

Unit 6

Started on Tuesday and it is fun at the moment as the work is not that hard but it is taxing .

Unit 18

this is fun ath the moment but it is difficult for me as  have dyslexia so i make mistakes  but i have created 5 programs in C already today

Unit 26

i am very good at this as it started off today using Macromedia Flash 8 witch i have used lots of times and i am one of the best in the group but that has its down sides as it means that i am constantly being asked for help but i don’t mind as it is similar as to when i was doing DiDA(Diploma in Digital Applications) back at RNS and i was the only person at the hole school that knew how to use it (not even Mr Brown knew how to use it) but like now i did help and i tough Tom how to use it and he then helped a couple of others but there were still only a handful of people that did know how to use it.

well tomorrow i am back doing units 6 and 26 so fun all day.

oh and it is not that long till my birthday (16/01/1991) and i will be 18!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Matt Smith - The 11th Doctor


this is the Doctor Who Confidential Interview with Matt Smith about how he reacted and his thoughts and feelings about him being cast as The Doctor.

David Tennant has bought something new and different to the role of The Doctor in the same way that all of the others before him and the same can be said about Matt as he will reveal the Timelord that he will create all the way to the clothing that he will wear as The Doctor like David with his trench Coat and his Pinstriped Suit.

Matt Smith will start filming later this year so that the 5th season can be broadcasted for spring 2010. David Tennant will be filming the 4 special episodes in a couple of weeks time so that the first one will be ready for Easter of this year.
Nothing has been said about The Doctors Companion(s) for any of the specials or for the 5th season but details will be more detailed the closed to the time as it is always the case.

Matt Smith will Have to prove to the fans of the show that he is ready and able for the part as he has some very big shoes to fill.

The Next Doctor Is Anounced Today

Well the moment we have all been waiting for, today is when the BBC is going to anounce the Person that is going to replace David Tennant for the part of The Doctor.

David Tennant as The Doctor

David Tennant as The Doctor

The Announcement is in the Doctor Who Confidential on BBC1 At 17:35.

Here Is the BBC Advert:

Now I would like the the Replacement to be David Hewlett as he would make a good Doctor. I am involved in the campaign that has been organized by the Squirrels of David Hewlett (the members of the forum on his website (of which I am one)).

David Hewlett and Jewel Staite

David Hewlett and Jewel Staite

There are other actors that the Bookies have been taking bets on taking over the role of The Doctor. thease include such people as:
Doctor Who Guest Stars:
These probably will not be the doctor as they have appeared in the show and only one Doctor was a guest star and became The Doctor (Tom Baker)

Paterson Joseph – Rodrick
David Morrissey – Jackson Lake
John Simm – The Master
Russell Tovey – Midshipman Alonzo Frame
Anthony Head – Mr Finch
Harry Lloyd – Jeremy Baines/Son-Of-Mine
John Barrowman – Captain Jack Harkness
Dean Lennox Kelly – William Shakespeare
Christopher Eccleston – The Doctor
Richard E Grant – The Doctor (Curse of The Fatal Death)
Hugh Grant – The Doctor (Curse of The Fatal Death)
it is fairly unlikely that these actors will make The Doctor but as Richard E Grant and Hugh Grant were in a spoof episode the could be a chance that these could be considered.

Other Names:
James Nesbitt
Robert Carlyle
Jason Statham
Aidan Gillen
Ben Whishaw
Julian Walsh
Nigel Harman
Bill Nighy
Stephen Fry
Chiwetel Ejiofor
David Suchett
Paul Bettany
Joel Beckett
Christopher Villiers
Ricky Gervais
Vinnie Jones
Robbie Williams
now these are some big names that could play the part of The Doctor but as this list of people was in Doctor Who Magazine issue:402 and this was out in November 2008 and in December of 2008 Robert Carlyle was signed as Dr David Rush in Stargate Universe and so he was taken off of the list as he will be filming SGU at the same time as the Filming of Doctor who so he was unable to be included but he was the favorite of Russell T Davies and it was learned that RTD is not a Stargate Fan.

Robert Carlyle

Robert Carlyle

All of these names are the ones that the bookies are and have been taking bets on them to be given the role of The Doctor. I am supporting David Hewlett but I have seen some people that others would like to see in the role of The Doctor and these include:
Allan Davies
Bill Bailey
Martin Freeman
Any of these could be in the role.

So I will be watching Live at 17:35 on BBC1 and I will be posting who gets the role later on.
