However, at least in this rendition, the IE icon reappears in both the title bar and the address bar, which does remain. Microsoft’s picture of the introductory panel shows the address bar missing, and the icon for the ballot being not the IE icon but a generic ballot icon Microsoft has used before for instance, with generic Control Panel components. In its browser ballot screenshot, not only does the icon reappear but IE is re-pinned to the Windows 7 taskbar.
The reason this actually matters (whether there’s a blue IE icon in the corner or not) is because it was believed to have been a topic of complaint by opponents to Microsoft’s original proposition for a browser ballot, which was later revised to look more like this one. If the second rendition is accurate, such a complaint could arise again, hopefully not pushing Microsoft past its current March 1 deadline for full deployment.
Heiner does not mention in his blog post whether this process would enable IE to be uninstalled.
Based on our understanding of how Windows works, this will probably not be possible from the browser ballot, specifically if the user currently has IE7 or earlier versions. Although IE8 now can be uninstalled, no such procedure exists for IE7 and older versions.
However, IE6 and IE7 can be upgraded to IE8 which, when uninstalled, should not leave too many traces of older browser parts strewn about the system directories. Still, that’s a process that everyday users should perhaps avoid.
I'm doing a Ms. Swan from MADtv video project in which she goes to a math class. Here is the script. Thank you for taking the time to read it. Any ideas, jokes, and critisisms welcome.
Math Skit
Mrs. Swan in Algebra 2
Characters: Mrs. Swan/Eve
Teacher/James
Student 1/ Nick
Student 2/ Josh
Scene: classroom, Teacher is teaching a lesson to the class, both students at their desks.
Teacher: “…and so you see class, you can use the quadratic formula to find the solution to a quadratic equation.”
[Swan comes in though door]
Teacher: Excuse me, can I help you?
Swan: Yeah, no.
Teacher: Can you tell me what your problem is?
Swan: Yeah, yeah. Ms. Swan tell you everyting.
Teacher: Swan—oh right! You must be the new student. [turns to class] Attention class, this is Bunny Swan from Kuvaria.
Swan: [corrects him] Kuvária.
Teacher: Well, since you were late for class, I'm going to need to see a tardy slip.
Swan: Hey, you call Ms. Swan a tard?
Teacher: No. You know—a tardy slip explaining why you were late.
Swan: Oh, okay, tardy slip. You no say that before.
Teacher: [growing frustrated] Okay, well I'm saying it now.
[Swan rummages through her bag, pulls out a dollar bill, and hands it to the teacher, winks]
Teacher: W-What? Are you trying to bribe me?
Swan: No, that’s my tardy slip. And there’s plenty more where that come from big boy.
Teacher: [Pockets dollar] Okay, fine. Just take a seat please.
[Swan sits down between the two students]
Teacher: Okay class, clear off your desks, it’s time to take our quiz.
[Teacher hands out quizzes, close-up on problem]
Swan: [looking confused] W-What is this?
Teacher: I’m sorry?
Swan: It’s all letters; I tell you, Math is 1-2-3 not A-B-C.
Teacher: Well, I'm telling you, in algebra, letters represent numbers. You need to use the quadratic formula to find the vertex.
Swan: Yeah, okay.
Teacher: Alright?
[Teacher goes back to desk]
[Swan looks over shoulder of student #1, who notices, and Swan looks back]
Student #1: [whispers] Stop looking at my paper.
Swan: What?
Student #1: You were looking at my quiz.
Swan: No, no. [shakes head]
[Swan looks at student #1 quiz again. Student #1 raises hand and teacher comes over]
Teacher: What is it?
Student 1: This lady’s trying to cheat off me.
[Teacher faces Swan]
Teacher: Ms. Swan, were you cheating off him?
Swan: No, he cheat off me.
Student #1: What? But she-
Swan: Whoa, slow down, Speedy Gonzales. You need to take a chill pill.
[Swan & Student #1 argue]
Teacher: [at Student #1] Get back to work. Give me your quiz.
[Teacher tries to pick up Swan’s quiz, but Swan holds on to it. They play tug-of-war until Teacher yells, “Let go!”]
Teacher: [reads aloud] “Ms. Swan is very pretty.” These aren’t even real answers.
Swan: Hey, that my answer. You try to cheat me off?
Teacher: Are you sure you’re supposed to be in this class? What math class did you take last year? Algebra II or Geometry?
Swan: Okay, I tell you. Mmmmmm… Algeometra II.
Teacher: What are you talking about? That’s not even a class.
[Swan raises hand]
Teacher: What?
Swan: What?
Teacher: You raised your hand.
Swan: No I didn’t.
[Swan raises hand again]
Teacher: What?
Swan: When does class end?
[Bell rings, scene end]

Have a friend who retired from Navy last year. He served as IT Project Manager, Help Desk Manager and System Administrator. He is having a problem getting work in the IT field because his BA is in Liberal Arts and he just completed MS in Management from university of Phoenix online. Are there certifications in IT field that woud increase his marketability in the IT field? Any other suggestions?
