I was just watching the live feeds for a few minutes. Robert is saying Erica told someone that Dana told her that if they didn't keep Dana this week, the other 4 would go after Erica first. True or is she playing with them?

Also even if it is true why would they automatically believe anything Erica, or the rest of her group says about anything? I tell you, sometimes I don't think any of them have a brain in their head.

Dana told Ericka that last night when she was trying to talk the "other" side in to keeping her or either voting her out 6-0.

Erika lied about this conversation to Jun. I think this goes with the idea Erika, Jack and Nathan came up with last night to feed them disinformation and to make Jun distrust all her group.

I watched Danas conversation with Erika and what Dana told Erika was not to trust Nathan or Alison. She told Erika that they would put her and Jack up. She also told Erika that next week more than likely the exes will put up Nathan and Erika. She never said to Erika that the exes focus is in getting rid of her. Erika lied about that. She told Erika that if she was still in the house her focus would be Nathan first and Ali next. She said, she wasnt offering any deals but just to let her know where she was. Erika was safe with her till Nathan and Alison were out.

It was nothing new but Erika is trying to cause a divide within the exes. Jack is also going to do it. They each saiid they would start with Jun to alienate her from that group and to bring her over to them.

Meanwhile the exes are all so stupid, none of them have even gone to Dana to ask about it. Dana did tell Jun about her conversation with Erika including telling her that she or Jack will probably be up next week against Nathan.

Thanks for the answers.

I thought it might be a plan they had, but wasn't sure. I wish the exes would be smarter about this type of stuff, makes me a little embarrassed to be rooting for them, but not enough to cross over to the dark side!

Maris, I checked out the live feeds from last night and Morning Magic and Gooch said Nate/Ali would put up Ericka. Then sfbaychick and I said that if Justin got HOH he would put up Ericka. So take your pick. It seems we all watch the same thing and hear things differently. Maybe Dana said both of those things at different times and therefore we all heard what we thought we did.

Maris

Yes she said that but she never said the exes would put Erika up first or that she would be the first focus of the exes. That conversation never took place and it doesnt even make sense. That is what Erika told Jun.

I can't see Zach's or Karuuna's pics. I'm using IE 6.0. (I can't see it in Mozilla either.)

I've heard mention a few times now, about dana's speech at POV. Apparently she said something to Robert, addressing him as Papi. I've never heard Robt. referred to by this name before. Does anyone know the significance of her using this name for him?

btw.. this was the part of her speech where she says something like I know you want to use it for me (what a slight to her best-bud June!) lol

Papi is a colloqial, affectionate way of saying "Dad" or "old man" in Spanish
Robert is Cuban-American

About the closing of the rooms. In previous years, didn't they always close off the room beside the bathroom, the one that's apart from the others? I guess that's the desert room this year with the four twin beds, but in previous years I thought it only had two or at most three twin beds in it. I recall the HGs sitting in there while their mates did some practical competitions, for hours, and also, they painted it one time too, with their own murals. Last year, Jason, Danielle and Lisa at the end used the room which was beyond the other one which was actually open at one side. Will and Nicole used the 'open sided' room when they were the last two.
[I used to have the feeds and posted late night LFPs in previous years so I'm pretty sure of that, but no feeds this year and thus I'm not sure what's what this year.]

Thank you all for replying to my Zachy- I don't exactly understand why it can be seen in some browsers and not others. ... ????? We are OSX and have Explorer, Netscape, and Safari to utilize- anyone know if one is better than another for posting? He is really in to screen caps, lol. Glad someone can find some excitement in the house!

Zachy, just checked out MYIE2 browser and Flashpeak's SlimBrowser also. Couldn't see them in those browsers either. (BTW, I have WinXP)

Through some unique transmogrification, I was able to download the image you posted zachyd and the file is 63K - when I load it into my image editor, then save it at 75% quality/compression it comes out as an 11K file. When I try to open the file directly, Netscape 7 tells me the file contains errors, NS 4.79 gives a broken image link as does IE6. In fact the only strange way I was able to see it was by opening the page in Microsoft Word 2000. Anyway, here's what I have now:zachyd
I don't know what to suggest to help you out here, Zachyd, since I'm using a PC with Win/Xp.

If the file is 63k that might cause a problem since members are cut off at 65k - just a guess - other than that I am clueless - especially since SanFran can see it.

Zachyd - One more guess here. I know that the latest QuickTime in OSX has an option for saving jpegs called ".jp2" (stands for "jpeg 2000")...it's a newer jpeg compression.

Could it be that you are saving your screencaps with the ".jp2" option rather than the older ".jpg" format? I don't think that particular jp2 compression is fully supported by all platforms and/or browsers yet.

My only other guess is that when you save them as jpegs in Photoshop, you may be choosing the "progressive scan" jpeg option. Could that be it? I always save mine as "optimized" or "standard".

Also, if you open a jpg using OSX's Preview and then choose "export..." you can convert it to many formats....and just renaming it and saving it as a jpg will usualy result in a much smaller file size....

I just find it curious that I can view your pix only in Safari....but I can view *my own* pix in any browser. That's why I think it may be something to do with the format of the jpg itself.

Btw, Safari is a pretty decent browser...loads fast.
