MadMen’s Vietnam
Madmen finished a rather interesting season. I only found interest in the season premier when Don sat at a bar in Hawaii and had a drink with a US Soldier on leave from the war. Many have written about Chevrolet was their “Vietnam” for the season.
Other segments throughout this season seemed tied into the cultural change the war took on American society. For example, the necklace of ears segment was rather interesting as the horror of war not only hit home but required the firm to change their advertising strategies.
Did you think their pot smoking scene or the death of a firm’s sibling (killed in Vietnam) reach the audience? Many didn’t seem to think so — maybe they were not looking deep enough?

Adobe InDesign compatibility
Designers need Adobe Indesign compatibility for demanding workflow. Adobe InDesign’s compatibility, supporting previous document versions has been somewhat smooth since CS3.
Finding all these full installs on a single machine is somewhat surprising don’t you think?
The Atlantic has picked up an article from the BBC who released audio tapes of President Johnson regarding GOP candidate Richard Nixon’s sabotage of the October 1968 Peace talks in Paris regarding Johnson’s bid to end the US involvement in the Vietnam war.
Johnson ordered FBI wiretaps on the GOP’s candidate that actually caught Nixon manipulating the South Vietnamese Government to boost his own Presidential aspirations in coming the November Presidential election. Those wiretaps caught Nixon dispatching a GOP supporter Anna Chennault to meet with South Vietnamese President Thieu to promise Nixon would offer the South a better deal if he rejected Johnson’s invite to Paris.
The LBJ tapes were initially released in November 2008. History shows us (again) that Nixon was committing treason against the United States. This release was even picked up by Slate’s Political Gabfest, but gained no real traction in the media. Simply put – Nixon is dead.
