ANTM fans check in
This by far has been one of the best seasons. I swear they leave Jade in each week just because that girl is such a bitch and actually brings some drama to the show each week. I guess she's going to work on Nnema the way she worked on Gina. Let's home Nnema is a bit smarter than that

1. Nnenna.
It's Nnenna.

And thanks for spoiling that Jade's still on. We couldn't watch last night -- fucking basketball preemptions. :cry:

2. Awwww....I'm sorry

Yeah, we get that here in Philly. Guess the sixers weren't playing last night.

But our UPN will show everything after the game is overwith

4. Well, I won't give away any other spoilers
I promise

But seriously, Jade is just a mean version of Lisa but they'll keep her around until about week 4-5. The judges made a comment to Jade last night that made you realize that she'll never win

5. I am not sure what you mean by seasons...
and I tend to prefer Frame Relay to ATM because it's better at creating Switched Virtual Circuits.

Still, both technologies are more cicruit oriented while the popularity of packet technologies, such as IP, hold the most promise for the future.

6. A frame cloud is fine as long as you have a limited number...
...of distinct port IDs and polling addresses. TCP/IP offers a much wider range of possible addresses, and therefore possible endpoints, on a PPP network. :patriot:

7. it all depends on the properties of the edge routers
especially if using MPLS in a Frame Rely environment. Since the core routers are not network aware the burden of traffic policing and route maintenance falls to the edge devices.

However, this is also the case if the core backbone uses ATM in an MPLS network. Frame is more scalable though as it is not limited to 58 octet cells and is therefore better for non-real-time traffic transfer.

9. if you want to provision Permanent Virtual Circuits
it's only a matter of adjusting the network management interface on a request by request basis rather than an as needed basis using a software solution. If you maintain a Frame Relay network with PVC capabilities then the equipment is less expensive as it requires less intelligence, but the operating costs are more expensive as it requires staffing a customer service team to handle manual provisioning.

10. I'm not loving this season so much
but then I don't usually at this point. I like Mollie Sue and Brooke (who I fear isn't long for the world...but don't tell me if I'm right ;)). Other than that everyone's just kinda "meh". I think it gets better for me when there are fewer to root for. I'm easily distracted. :D

11. I've been disappointed
This season may be the best in terms of candidates who truly could turn out to be good models. However, I'm very disappointed in the judge's choices. Jade should have been booted off last night. She did horribly on both tasks -- in fact, she was the worst in both tasks. Molly Sue has potential to be a good model and should have been kept on.
Another time they kept Gina over someone else (I forgot who). Gina should have been booted off -- that poor girl was a mess. While she's beautiful, she's too messed up to succeed in any capacity or in any career.
