“Melinda Messenger Launches The TBS Ideal Home Show”. You will see this headline in many newspapers tomorrow but I am not sure that it is totally accurate because the event that I attended was hosted by Harvey Norman rather than the RDS or the TSB.
This is the second year in a row for Harvey Norman at the Ideal Home Show at the RDS in Dublin and today, the day before the show opens to the public, the media were invited to view what will be on offer at the Harvey Norman ‘connected home’. As well as some really appealing home automation we were also introduced to Melinda Messenger who attracted more attention than most of the embedded technology.
I must be losing touch because a friend had to explain to me that Melinda Janet Messenger (born 23 February 1971) is an English television presenter and former glamour model and Page 3 girl. She presented the magazine programme Live from Studio Five and was formerly the co-presenter of the reality show Cowboy Builders. Maybe, I need to watch more television. Don’t worry some of my photographs available via Flickr do include the lady in question.
I do suggest that you should visit the Harvey Norman ‘connected home’ over the weekend [in case you are wondering they did not pay me to say that].
Don’t tell anyone that I told you but if you visit idealhome.ie/free-ticket-registration/ you can free tickets [Friday Only].
In the developed world, the experience of the average twenty-five-year-old is one of substantial overlap between online and offline friends and colleagues. The overlap is so great, in fact, that both the word and the concept of “cyberspace” have fallen into disuse. The internet augments real-world social life rather than providing an alternative to it. Instead of becoming a separate cyberspace, our electronic networks are becoming deeply embedded in real life.

A toy embedded, close to the kerb, in a (relatively) newly laid pavement, on Lower Dargle Road, Bray.
Instead of the usual scrawling in the wet cement, someone pressed this guy into the, aforementioned, wet cement and it has set around him.
I suspect the missing leg is the result of trying to extract him.
Afghan National Army Sgt. Fasil Rahim, a machine gunner with 2nd Kandak, 1st Brigade, 215th Corps, smiles while waiting for the command to fire during a machine gun range with U.S. Marines assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment Embedded Training Team here, Feb. 21. As Afghan forces become more independent in the conduct of security operations in Garmsir district, the ETT Marines are focused on teaching ANA leaders how to employ their men in this mission. Rather than focusing solely on weapons handling and employment during the 20-day course, Marine instructors concentrated on developing ANA noncommissioned officers as machine gun team leaders.

This enhanced-color image mosaic shows Daphnis, one of the moons embedded in Saturn's rings, in the Keeler gap on the sunlit side of the rings. Daphnis is seen kicking up three waves in the gap's outer edge. Three wave crests of diminishing sizes trail the moon. In each successive crest, the shape of the wave changes as the ring particles within the crest interact and collide with each other. A thin strand of ring material to the lower left of Daphnis is newly visible in this image, and there are intricate features that also hadn't been previously observed in the third wave crest downstream.
