First Photo of President Obama using his BlackBerry Barackberry in the White House

Nice shot!

Update: Engadget points out that Obama may not have been allowed to keep his Blackberry, as was widely reported…he may in fact be using a Sectera Edge, a more secure device. Thus, it will henceforce be called the “BarackBerry” around these parts. ;)

His Battle ends… Hers Begins

Last evening my Uncle’s battle with lung cancer ended. It was sudden and though we all expected him to go, it was not now, not yesterday. He was on a second round of chemo and had a few ups and downs over the last couple of weeks, but a trip to the doctor for what was thought to be bronchitis lead to a CT scan, lead to emergency surgery… and it was more then his body could handle. He was a simple man all his life, but a good man. Few every found reason to curse him, rather the people he worked with liked him so much that he would be requested for their project. He loved his family, his concrete truck, and was ever diligent about the mowing and caretaking of his lawn. He had faced many tough things in his life and had overcome almost all of them. The remaining one was the biggest monkey on his back and it finally got him… smoking. The real sadness is that he had only retired this year and could start looking forward to kicking back and watching the grass grow… My Aunt I am told is doing okay, but the family is coming together from around the country to comfort her in her time of need. Nothing will ease her pain for the moment. But at least we can be there to support her for a short while. So today I struggle to make it through the day, while my wife is at home working hard on finding flights for me, Mom and my other Uncle to fly to Nebraska from 3 different states and arrive close in time to one another so that we can drive the 3 hours from Omaha to Hastings together. Arrival at my Aunt’s will be in the middle of the night Friday. With so few flights to there in the middle of winter this is the best that could be arranged for all. Our battle begins to get to my Aunt, her battle begins of a life with out my Uncle after all these decades. My Uncle’s battle is over as he sleeps in death but for a moment in time. Unk, I’ll be waiting for you.

The BBC has announced that 26-year-old Matt Smith will be the 11th Doctor Who, hitting screens in the fifth series in 2010 as the youngest actor* to tackle the role.

According to Piers Wenger, head of drama at BBC Wales, Smith's audition immediately marked him as the next Time Lord. He said: "It was abundantly clear that he had that 'Doctor-ness' about him. You are either the Doctor or you are not. It's just the beginning of the journey for Matt.

"With Steven Moffat's scripts and the expertise of the production team in Cardiff behind him, there is no one more perfect to be taking the Tardis to exciting new futures when the series returns in 2010."

Smith (pictured) enthused: "I feel proud and honoured to have been given this opportunity to join a team of people that has worked so tirelessly to make the show so thrilling. David Tennant has made the role his own, brilliantly, with grace, talent and persistent dedication. I hope to learn from the standards set by him.

"The challenge for me is to do justice to the show's illustrious past, my predecessors, and most importantly, to those who watch it. I really cannot wait."

David Tennant will film four Who specials during 2009, while Smith will beging filming on series five in the summer. His previous TV work includes the 2006 adaptation of The Ruby in the Smoke and political drama Party Animals. He's also graced the boards of the Royal Court and National Theatre.

Regarding just who will be Smith's companion, Wenger said: "Having got the casting of the Doctor out of the way, the companion role is where we will be looking next. Someone terribly exciting like Billie Piper, who was at the beginning of her acting career but who had a profile for other reasons, would be great. We are looking for someone whose light can burn brightly."

According to various news sources, the BBC is eyeing singer Lily Allen and Strictly Come Dancing stars Rachel Stevens and Kelly Brook. Wenger admitted: "We would never cast anyone on the basis of their celebrity, but if Lily wanted to audition we would be delighted. It would be a lot of fun."

*The BBC says that Smith "is three years younger than Peter Davison when he signed up to play the fifth Doctor in 1981". There's a full list of all the doctors here.
