The Woman In the Window

Anna Fox played by Amy Adams was a child psychologist living alone in a multi-story apartment. She suffered from agoraphobia and was seeing a psychiatrist herself and taking medications. It will be later revealed that she was driving when her husband and daughter were killed in a road accident. Her psychiatrist encouraged her curiosity on other people which prompted her to observe neighbors. 

The Russell's lived across the street and one day she saw Jane Russell murdered. She called the police but later the whole family confronted her with a Jane Russell alive and a woman who was different from the one she met. She apologized for her mistake, but later got more evidence proving she was right and the Russell family wasn't the perfect family after all. 

Ethan Russell, the sixteen year old son revealed he killed his birth mother Katie who Anna thought to be Mrs. Russell. Ethan was the abused son but also the murderer in the story. 

The plot is bland but the acting especially by Amy Adams, Julianne Moore and Gary Oldman were very good to watch.

Appindicator In Natty Ubuntu 11.04

Previously ranted about the blind alley Ubuntu 11.04 seemed to be leading us when it comes to some applications not being ready yet for the dropping of system tray.  What I should have done is press on. There are posts about editing a white list with a recommended GUI tool to help us out here , here and here . Like everything in Linux, there's a configuration file for it, if you can find it and if you have the inclination to go ninja. If not then there's dconf-editor. Download dconf-tools from Software Center. Navigate to desktop>unity>panel. Add your application in the white list. Then close the window. No save button. mmm. So far I have added Shutter, Dropbox and Keepassx in the white list.                Before...  After.

Evolution Mail on GNOME 3.26

There's a slight change in the user interface. A To Do column now appears to the rightmost after the GNOME 3.26 update. Also there's a noticeable stability increase, what with goa-daemon stopping its RAM usage creep. I don't have to kill it every couple of hours.

New Converge ICT Plan Max with Sky Now

I pulled the trigger on Converge Max plan 400Mbps with Sky channels. I went to their sales office and asked for the upgrade. No charge at all and they didn't ask me to return the old modem. It looks like they will pull it when they install the new modem.e     It came with a black box for the TV. The configuration is easy but it took me 3 days to figure out the Wired connection. It should be fine except I have to jiggle it in the config (GUI). Turn 802.1x  on and off to finally connect.  Here's the speed for the Wired connection:
