I have been maintaining the content of this blog in Subversion since March 2005, 1292 days ago (and in CVS before that). When I moved this blog from my Fedora Core 6 box to my Debian box 64 days ago, I don't have enough disk space on the partition to hold the 1.9G Subversion workspace. So I simply...

Julia Stiles I saw her the other day in a CVS looking at magazines, perhaps to see who were the current it girls. She still looks cute as a button and looks about 24 at the oldest though I think she is in her late 20’s now. Anyway, she hasn’t had a film in a while except for The Bourne Ultimatum and the ill-fated The Omen but those seem long ago in film world. I did read that she is finally adapting...

Major shareholder Advisory Research has not decided if it will tender its shares in favor of the CVS bid but has questioned the deal. Another major shareholder, Pershing Square Capital Research, has said it is against the CVS deal. The two firms combined own about 18 percent of Longs shares, and the deal requires approval from shareholders owning two-thirds of Longs stock.
