David Scarboro as the original Mark (1985).
Mark Albert Fowler is a fictional character from the popular British BBC soap opera EastEnders. Mark, an original regular character when the series started in February 1985, became a semi-regular after his original portrayer David Scarboro was written out of the role in April 1985. Scarboro made brief returns to the role in 1986 and 1987. Scarboro committed suicide in April 1988. The role was recast in 1990, and Todd Carty taking on the role. From this point the character was a permanent fixture in the series and Carty remained in the role until the character was written out of the series in early 2003.[1] Initially a delinquent teenager, he became a changed man when he was 22. His contracting HIV forced him to grow up fast and accept his responsibilities. He frequently found it difficult to accept the restrictions of the illness, which finally claimed his life in April 2004.
Mark is the son of Albert Square residents Arthur Fowler (Bill Treacher) and Pauline Fowler (Wendy Richard). Initially, Mark gets involved in drugs with Nick Cotton (John Altman), attempts to join a racist organisation known as The New Movement, is a suspect in Reg Cox's (Johnnie Clayton) murder, and generally clashes with his parents. With no solution to these problems in sight, he abruptly leaves home in April 1985 without informing his parents. He leaves Walford without telling anyone where he is going, and isn't seen again until eight months later. After Mark contacts his parents through a runaways' agency, an extremely worried Pauline and Arthur track him down to Southend-on-Sea in December 1985. Mark has settled, and has found work as a mechanic at a go-cart track. He is living with an older, Swedish woman named Ingrid and her children, who know Mark as Daddy. He and Ingrid split up soon afterwards and Mark moves on to do farmwork in Wales and then Gloucester and finally Newcastle.
Mark returns to Walford several times in 1986 for brief visits. In July 1986, he comes with his Welsh friend Owen Hughes (Philip Brock). The duo cause problems after the school-girl Cassie Carpenter (Delanie Forbes) steals their cannabis and is caught smoking it by her parents, Tony (Oscar James) and Hannah Carpenter (Sally Sagoe). The entire Carpenter family refuse to speak to the Fowlers for a while after. In November, Pauline receives news that Mark is being held in Borstal detention centre for drug offences, burglary and assaulting a policeman. Pauline visits him in February 1987, and finds him to be unrepentant, but he is due to be released in a few weeks. After his release, he briefly returns to Walford, but despite Pauline's pleas, he refuses to return home permanently. Mark isn't seen until Christmas day 1987, when he shows up unexpectedly to spend the day with his family. Mark astutely guesses that Den Watts (Leslie Grantham) is his niece's father, although he keeps this to himself. This is the last time Mark is seen for several years. He spends his time drifting and travelling the country on his motorbike.
Mark returns to Albert Square in September 1990, a changed man. He is more caring and sedate, having left his rebellious stage behind. His gained maturity is due to the fact that he had contracted HIV while living away from the Square, which forced him to become more responsible. Mark develops a close friendship with Diane Butcher (Sophie Lawrence) and initially keeps his secret hidden from everyone. However, as he and Diane grow closer, he finally decides to tell her the truth about his HIV status in January 1991. He believes that he had come into contact with the virus through Gill Fowler (Susanna Dawson), his girlfriend in Newcastle, who turns up briefly in the middle of the year, but disappears when she sees him kissing Diane. Mark initially tells Gill that he isn't infected with HIV but later he tells the truth. Mark's relationship with Diane never becomes serious, not for her at least. She is a useful confidante however, and manages to persuade Mark to go for counselling at the Terrence Higgins Trust. Mark initially turns on his male counsellor, relaying all his bitterness at being a potential AIDS victim, but eventually feels the benefits of discussing his status. Diane keeps Mark's secret. He loves her for it and asks her to marry him. However, she gently turns him down and shortly afterwards, leaves Walford to live in France.
Towards the end of the year, following the example of his friend Joe Wallace (Jason Rush) who had told his parents about being gay and HIV-positive, Mark decides to tell his parents. By this time, he is in a relationship with Rachel Kominski (Jacquetta May), who advises him against it, but Mark is tired of the pretence. On Boxing Day Mark tells Pauline and Arthur that he is HIV-positive. They sit in stunned silence while he scatters helpful leaflets around the house and then flees to the countryside. When he returns, he faces his mother's irrational terror and hostility from his father. Arthur's ignorance is apparent initially, as he is often scared that he will catch HIV from Mark. He goes to great lengths to bleach all the cutlery that Mark has used to avoid infection. Mark's mother and sister Michelle Fowler (Susan Tully) are understandably distraught, but are instrumental in helping Arthur understand Mark's illness, and are a huge support to Mark during this time. Mark's relationship with Rachel ends in 1992, and the animosity at home thrusts Mark back into the arms of his girlfriend Gill, who moves to London and becomes seriously ill. Gill's HIV has already progressed into AIDS and her deterioration is rapid. She is diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and is placed in a hospice. Mark realises that he is truly in love with her and asks her to marry him. Mark and Gill marry in June 1992, and their honeymoon consists of one night in a hotel, before Gill is readmitted to the hospice where she dies. A devastated Mark spends the rest of the year in shock and begins drinking heavily. Mark later befriends local teenage tearaway Mandy Salter (Nicola Stapleton) but their friendship is severely tested when she becomes obsessed with him. Mark, still grieving for Gill, is horrified when he discovers that Mandy has been reading his late wife's diary and has dressed up in her clothes. Despite this, he later invites Mandy to live with him after Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth) throws her out. On Christmas Day, Mandy leaves Walford to meet her mother but is attacked by her stepfather; Mark arrives in the nick of time to rescue her and invites her for Christmas dinner at the Fowler household.
During 1993, Mark takes over running the family fruit and vegetable stall in the market after his uncle, Pete Beale (Peter Dean), departs. He also begins an on/off relationship with his sister's house-mate Shelley Lewis (Nicole Arumugam), however Mark is hesitant to tell her about his HIV status. During November 1993, whilst on a trip to Amsterdam, Shelley makes it clear to Mark that she wants to have sex with him. Mark is finally forced to divulge that the reason he can't have sex with her is because he is HIV positive. Shelley is furious with him for not trusting her enough to tell her in the first place, and tells him she never wants to see him again. Mark takes the rejection badly and he begins neglecting his health by not taking his HIV medication. During Christmas that year, he is rushed to hospital after collapsing. When Shelley finds out that Mark is ill, she rushes to him and confesses that she really cares for him and so they recommence their relationship. Shelley wants Mark to meet her family and go on holiday with her parents. She becomes infatuated with him and tries to spend as much time with him as she can. Mark fears that the relationship is moving too quickly and he soon tires of Shelley. By March 1994, Mark decides to finish the relationship, but when he tries to end it, Shelley resorts to emotional blackmail, saying that she risked her own health being with him, so he owes her. When this doesn't work, she threatens to tell the rest of Walford about his HIV status, but when Mark calls her bluff she does not go through with her threat and decides to leave Walford instead.
Later in 1994, Mark's friend Joe Wallace dies of an AIDS related illness, and after a trip to the hospice to see him, he runs into a Scottish woman named Ruth Aitken (Caroline Paterson), who is visiting her friend in the hospice. After a brief conversation the two decide to go to a pub to drown their sorrows. They begin a relationship and for once Mark seems to have found a woman who can deal with his HIV status without getting hysterical. Ruth is the daughter of a strict Presbyterian minister, who refuses to give his blessing to her relationship with Mark and disowns her when she announces in 1995 that she is planning to marry him. They marry anyway - in Scotland - soon after. However, problems in their marriage begin to surface. Ruth persuades Mark - and herself - that she is happy about not having any children, but it soon becomes apparent that she is fooling herself.
In 1996, Mark is forced to confront the Square's prejudices, when the residents discover his HIV status. The depth of ignorance concerning the illness doesn't help matters and, led by Peggy Mitchell (Barbara Windsor), the residents begin boycotting Mark's fruit and vegetable stall, fearing they will catch the virus from his produce. Pauline springs to her son's defence and she and Peggy are involved in a vicious slap fight, but even Pauline can't diffuse the prejudice, and Mark returns home one day to find the words "AIDS scum" graffitied on his wall. This is too much for him and he decides to present his neighbours with a few facts about his illness in The Queen Victoria; firstly by telling them that he doesn't have AIDS but is HIV positive and that it is a virus and not contagious, then forcing them to acknowledge their bigotry. Peggy remains uncertain, but is forced to realise that Mark might appreciate a bit of support when, at the end of the year, she is diagnosed with breast cancer.
In 1997, Mark and Ruth begin fostering a six year old girl named Jessie Moore (Chelsey Paden), but having to return her to her mother proves too heart-breaking, and by this time their marriage is in crisis. When Mark's cousin Conor Flaherty (Seán Gleeson) shows an interest in Ruth, Mark becomes jealous and the relationship falls apart. After they split, Ruth succumbs to Conor's charm and becomes pregnant with his child. She leaves Walford in 1999 with Conor, leaving Mark heart-broken.
In 2000, Mark's feud with Nick Cotton (John Altman) resurfaces after he discovers that Nick had given his brother, Martin Fowler (James Alexandrou), ecstasy. Mark snaps and after spiking Nick's drink, leads him up to the Walford viaduct and watches in delight as an intoxicated Nick plunges to the ground, severely crippling himself. Nick is vengeful and enlists his son Ashley (Frankie Fitzgerald) to take revenge on Mark. Ashley steals Mark's motorbike and attempts to run Mark over with it, but Nick had drained the brake fluid from the bike the night before. Ashley crashes into the launderette and is killed. Nick leaves the Square shortly afterwards and never sees Mark again. Mark grows fond for Lisa Shaw (Lucy Benjamin), who is in a rocky relationship with his enemy, Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden). When she leaves Phil, she turns to Mark. Mark takes her in and they begin a relationship, much to Pauline's despair. Together, they concoct a plan to pretend that the child she is carrying is Mark's, even though the real father is Phil. Mark offers to raise the baby so Phil can be completely erased from Lisa's life. To facilitate their lie, Mark insists that he'd taken all the relevant precautions in relation to his HIV, stating that he had undergone sperm washing, and they fool everyone for a while. Mark loves Lisa so much that he stays with her after she shoots Phil (who survives), and Mark proposes to her in 2001 shortly after baby Louise's birth. However Phil discovers the truth about the child's parentage from Louise's god mother Sharon Watts (Letitia Dean), and vows to take an active role in his daughter's upbringing. Mark and Lisa marry in March 2002, but their happiness is short-lived. Lisa is still very much in love with Phil and Phil knows this so he seduces her in order to have more access to Louise. After Sharon discovers Phil's intentions, she talks Phil out of his plan and he ends the affair with Lisa, but Mark still finds out and leaves the square for a while. After just five months of marriage, Lisa leaves Mark after resuming her affair with Phil.
In January 2003, Mark's doctor tells him that his body is rejecting the medication he is using to prolong his life and put off the onset of AIDS. He soon accepts that he is going to die, and decides to leave Walford rather than let his family see him endure a slow and painful death. He makes a tearful farewell to his family and friends and rides off out of Albert Square in February 2003. News of his death reaches Walford in April 2004, and he is given a heart-felt send-off by the residents of Walford.
Character creation and development[edit]
Mark Fowler was one of the original twenty-three characters invented by the creators of EastEnders, Tony Holland and Julia Smith. Mark was a member of the first family of EastEnders, the Beales and Fowlers, and Holland took the inspiration for some of the series' earliest characters from his own London family and background. Mark's original character outline as written by Smith and Holland appeared in an abridged form in their book, EastEnders: The Inside Story.
|Mark will be leaving school at Easter and is fairly certain to be joining his dad in the dole queue. Mark is a very tough little lad, and at a very dodgy stage in his development...There's a kind of amoral streak in his nature...The area does have a brutalising effect on a lot of its youngsters (page 55)[2]
Several young actors were seen and read for the part of Mark (including Gary Hailes, who would later play the gay barrow boy, Barry Clark). On paper, David Scarboro was the least likely to get the job as he was relatively inexperienced, having previously only appeared in a little-known made-for-television film and Grange Hill. His reading was not a huge success as he mumbled most of his lines. However, Holland and Smith were taken with his appearance, particularly his "piercing eyes", which reminded them of James Dean. They felt that he would be "dynamite on-screen", and his likeness to their vision of the character was uncanny, so they offered him the role.[2]
Mark was originally scripted to be a wayward delinquent and was due to feature heavily within the first year of the series. However, as soon as the regular gruelling schedule of EastEnders production established itself, it became clear that Scarboro was not happy in the role. The stress of the heavy workload and the sudden fame that came to all the actors became difficult for him to cope with. He became unhappy with the schedule and his scripts and refused to play Mark as a racist as was intended. Holland and Smith decided to write the character out of the show to allow the actor to come to terms with the situation better. On-screen, Mark was being implicated in the murder of Reg Cox (Johnnie Clayton) and was being tempted into heroin by Nick Cotton (John Altman). Fearing Nick and the police, Mark ran away from home in April 1985. As this had not been the original plan for the character, it meant a hectic period of re-writing early in 1985. The first fifty-odd scripts were reworked to accommodate this major change. Many of the stories intended for Mark were subsequently given to Kelvin Carpenter (Paul J. Medford), Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) and Mark's sister Michelle (Susan Tully) - which partially explains why her character became so prominent in the first year. It still left a gap though, because several of Mark's functions in the serial, as slightly the eldest of the youngsters, could not have been taken over by the others. A new character needed to be introduced to restore the balance to its original shape, which is why the character of Simon Wicks (Nick Berry) was introduced. This meant introducing the audience to a character and a story approximately a year before it had been originally intended.[2][3]
Scarboro returned to the show briefly in December 1985 in a storyline that saw Mark's parents, Pauline (Wendy Richard) and Arthur (Bill Treacher) search for him in Southend. The storyline's intention was to help highlight the problems some parents face when their teenage children disappear from home. He returned again for brief stints in 1986 and 1987. His final appearance as Mark was on Christmas Day 1987. However, the actor was never to make a full-time return and Scarboro committed suicide in 1988.[3]
Subsequently, the role was recast in 1990 to the actor Todd Carty, renowned for his role as Tucker Jenkins in Grange Hill. At this time, Mark returned to the series as a permanent character. The most notable storyline involving Mark was the revelation that he had contracted HIV. Mark discovered he was HIV positive in 1991, and informed his family of this on Christmas Day that year. There then followed a traumatic journey as he struggled first to come to terms with the news, then track down his previous partners to inform them that he was infected with the virus. The problems didn't end there, however, as Mark then had to battle with the fear and ignorance of those living around him including his parents. Many of Albert Square's residents initially rejected him when they found out that he was HIV positive. Mark married one of his ex-partners Gill (Susanna Dawson), who had also been infected with the virus but in her case it had progressed to AIDS, and she subsequently died the day after the wedding. The episode in which Gill died (written by Debbie Cook and directed by Leonard Lewis) has been chosen by writer Colin Brake as one of the most memorable episodes of 1992.[3] In his book, EastEnders: The First Ten Years Blake comments, "Although in many ways the episode was sad and downbeat it was not without its positive aspects, as Mark talked to his sister about his own mortality."[3] Susanna Dawson, the actress who played Gill, found the experience of playing a person living with, and dying from, AIDS so intense that she co-produced an educational video based on the subject for use in schools and wrote a book, The Gill and Mark Story, to accompany it.[3]
Mark became the first mainstream soap character to be diagnosed as HIV-positive. The storyline came after a government request to "spread the word".[4] Mark's story also helped dispel the myth that HIV is an automatic death sentence.[citation needed] He lived with the condition for 13 years before dying of an AIDS related illness. The Terrence Higgins Trust worked with the production team for the duration of Mark's story.[5] Despite all the public health campaigns concerning HIV transmission, the biggest peak in requests for testing in Britain was seen in January 1991 when Mark Fowler was diagnosed HIV-positive.[6] Carty has commented: "I feel that the storyline educated people at a time when there were lots of misconceptions about HIV and Aids…My main concern was that they'd get it right and, overall, I think they did - because it showed someone living with HIV, as opposed to dying of it."[7][8]
The storyline was widely applauded for the way it handled the plot and the following issues that the scriptwriters explored, from antiretroviral drugs, safe sex and prejudice. The storyline was so successful in raising awareness that a 1999 survey by the National Aids Trust found teenagers got most of their information about HIV from the soap.[9]
The character of Mark remained in the show for a further 13 years after his reintroduction, and featured in an array of storylines including two failed marriages, which were scripted to highlight the difficulties that can occur in a relationship when one partner has HIV and the other does not. Ultimately Mark overcame the stigma and he enjoyed several years of happy, healthy living before finally succumbing to an AIDS-related illness and dying in April 2004 off-screen. EastEnders executive producer Louise Berridge said Carty had made a "fantastic contribution" to the soap and Mark has been a "pivotal figure" on Albert Square, but the character had finally run its course.[10]
Campaigners have since suggested that Mark's HIV storyline could have been handled better in the latter years. Lisa Power, head of policy at the Terrence Higgins Trust, said "in some ways the storyline was not reflective of what was happening at the time as the condition was more common among the gay community". She also said "he was perhaps killed off too early as advancements in drugs are helping people live for much longer... Saying that, one decent soap episode is worth a thousand leaflets in schools. That is why we would always go out of our way to help scriptwriters. TV and films can be very powerful."[9]
Carty had said that the late EastEnders star Wendy Richard was like a mother to him. "When I was filming my goodbye scenes, those tears were real. Seeing Wendy break down was one of the most poignant moments. The whole day was so emotional - I had to hold it together and stay strong for Wendy". Carty had also told The Mirror that the pair had struck up a 20-year friendship after they were cast.[11]

In yesterday's Washington Post, Peter Baker takes a look at an upcoming book by professor Martha Joynt Kumar, entitled, "Managing the President's Message."
As a college professor, Martha Joynt Kumar studied and taught the art of presidential communication for years. But one day, she did what few of her colleagues in academia had: She showed up at the White House, planted herself in the basement along with the reporters who covered the president and started watching the whole process up close. That was in 1995. Now we have the fruits of her labor.
After attending briefings and presidential events for most of the last dozen years, Kumar has seen the sausage being ground for longer than most of the officials and reporters she studies. Her new book, "Managing the President's Message," published by Johns Hopkins University Press, pulls back the curtain on the machinations and recriminations that always seem to shadow the interactions between presidents and the media.
Kumar, a Towson University professor, got most of the important figures of the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush presidencies to talk with her about their strategies for spinning journalists — including Karl Rove, Dan Bartlett and Joshua B. Bolten from this administration. What emerges is a portrait of a rapidly shifting environment in which the White House has had to adapt to keep a quicker pace because of cable news, talk radio and the Internet.

The 2012 Oscar Nominees: Silent Films, Surprises and ScorseseAcademy Awards By Scott Beggs on January 24, 2012 | Comments (15)
It's been a year filled with silent screen stars seeking redemption, the 1920s coming alive in Paris, a young boy searching for the first great director, sex addicts in New York City, horses going to war, maids of dishonor, and skulls getting crushed in elevators. Now it's time to celebrate all of those things and more with the 84th annual Academy Awards. They've come a long way since the Hotel Roosevelt in 1929 (although sex addicts have almost always been a fixture). Get to ready to smile, ball your fists with snubbed rage, or be generally unsurprised. Here they are. The 2012 Oscar nominees:
Aural Fixation: To Speak or Not To Speak? The Role of Music in Film as Seen Through 'The Artist'Aural Fixation By Allison Loring on November 23, 2011 | Comments (2)
We all know that music is an important part of the film experience. It helps set the mood and has the power to completely influence a film's tone. Changing the music, regardless of what is happening on screen, can suddenly alter the feel or perception of a scene. You take the sound out of a horror film (as I explored here) or replace intense score with cheesy pop music (as spoofed in Funny or Die's mock Drive trailer) and suddenly the fear and the anxiety are taken away. You are less likely to jump at a sudden reveal without the musical jab that goes along with it and watching Ryan Gosling bash a man's head into a wall goes from unsettling to humorous when set to Enrique Iglesias' "I Can Be Your Hero." Back before there was talking in film, music was the only thing to accompany the moving images and was used to not only convey the emotions being acted out on screen, but to also provide all the sound in the film. The Artist does a brilliant job of not only taking us back to a time of full and vibrant orchestrations, but also reminding audiences how different films were then from what we are used to seeing (and hearing) on screen now. In one of The Artist's first scenes, this difference proven handily when the audience bursts into applause and you do not hear a single clap.
Who Should Have Won Cannes 2011: The (Unbelievably Prestigious) FSR AwardsCannes Film Festival By Simon Gallagher on May 24, 2011 | Comments (2)
22 films in 11 days. One walk-out. One mighty fine steak. Such is the story of this writer's coverage of the 2011 Cannes Film Festival, and now that Robert De Niro and his panel of the great and the good of world filmmaking have sat down over coffee and cheese to decide the real winners, I'd like to offer my own thoughts on who I would have liked to see win. This is all based on my personal experiences of the films, and you might notice the categories don't match up to the split competitions of the festival itself, but I'm in charge here, and I can do what the flaming hell I want. So here we go with the best parts of the 64th Cannes Film Festival…

'This Is It': Michael Jackson's earnings boom
Michael Jackson's estate has reportedly earned $90 million since the entertainer's death in June – and "This Is It" may boost that number. But his estate's long-term value remains unclear.
Anna Shevelyova/AP
Los Angeles
Michael Jackson made more money than Elvis Presley this year – $90 million versus $55 million, according to a Forbes report, boosted by a deal to use his name and likeness in his concert film "This Is It," which took in $2.2 million on its opening night Tuesday.
But will Mr. Jackson top the ranks of highest-earning celebrity estates ever, and will his untimely death make a difference? Outlook: cloudy, say the folks who have their finger on the money that trails the famous long after their passing.
Take for example the pop star's iconic sparkly white glove. It sold for nearly $70,000 in October. But, says Joe Maddalena, president of Profiles in History, the Hollywood memorabilia auction house that handled the sale, the man who owned the glove phoned him just prior to the performer's unexpected death in June to inquire about the glove's value.
"It was the same," Mr. Maddalena says, adding that it's far too early to calculate whether the singer will vault over legends such as Marilyn Monroe, James Dean, or Elvis Presley in long-term value.

Padres lose to Diamondbacks 4-2
SAN DIEGO Joe Thatcher and the San Diego Padres were not happy with the way they fell behind Arizona: a balk.
Gerardo Parra scored the tiebreaking run on a balk in the seventh inning, and the Arizona Diamondbacks went to beat the Padres 4-2 Saturday night.
Third base umpire Brian Gorman "took the ball out of my hands," Thatcher said. "I'm looking back at the second base umpire (Tony Radazzo), he's shaking his head. I didn't balk. I don't know what he really saw. It changed the game."
Thatcher (0-1) had replaced starter Edinson Volquez to start the seventh inning of a 2-all game. The left-hander gave up an infield single to Parra on a comebacker that deflected off his bare hand with one out.
Willie Bloomquist singled and Parra advanced to third base. Thatcher was then called for a balk by Gorman, allowing Parra to score.
Catcher Nick Hundley, who immediately protested the call, said he didn't see anything wrong with what Thatcher did.
"The second base umpire had the best look at it," Hundley said. "He said no balk. From my view, nothing happened."
Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson had a different view of the play.
Parra "caused the balk," Gibson said. "He took a couple of steps. He went down (the third base line) hard where Thatcher could see him."
Hudson (2-1) pitched eight strong innings and Paul Goldschmidt homered in the win. Arizona, which had scored two runs or less in three of their last four games, scored three runs on a sacrifice fly, a balk and a bases-loaded walk.
Hudson, making his second start since coming off the disabled list, allowed two runs on five hits while striking out five and walking one. Hudson also had a sacrifice fly.
Goldschmidt extended his career-best hitting streak to 11 games with a solo homer in the fifth inning into the second deck in left field that tied the score 2-all.
San Diego, which broke a six-game losing streak with Friday night's 7-1 win over Arizona, has lost 10 of 12. The Padres have the majors' worst record at 18-36.
Arizona added another run in the eighth inning after Luke Gregerson allowed Miguel Montero's leadoff double and walked two batters to load the bases. Alex Hinshaw replaced Gregerson and walked Parra.
J.J. Putz pitched the ninth for his 12th save in 15 chances after retiring pinch-hitter Jesus Guzman on a line drive with runners at first and third.
The Diamondbacks failed to fully capitalize on Volquez's wildness.
The Padres right-hander walked consecutive batters to open innings in both the second and fourth innings. But Arizona managed to score just one run.
In the fourth, Miguel Montero and Chris Young walked to start the inning. An infield single by Josh Bell loaded the bases before Hudson's sacrifice fly gave the Diamondbacks a 1-0 lead.
The Padres took the lead in the bottom of the inning after Will Venable led off with a bunt single and stole second. Cameron Maybin followed with an RBI single and took second on the throw home before he scored on Yonder Alonso's single.

If you aren't fired with enthusiasm,you will be fired with enthusiasm.-Vince Lombardi
As a teacher, it is of vital importance to me to approach my daily tasks with enthusiasm, as I want to inspire my students... If I'm not enthusiastic about what we're doing how can I expect them to get excited? We must remember that we may be teaching something for the umpteenth time but it's most likely the first time our young people have been introduced to it... they deserve no less than our first eager class of learners received.... ENTHUSIASM!!!!
Just heard a story on our local news that 90 million, yes 90 million Americans are choosing NOT to vote this year... Why? They are too busy... really, really??? This just amazes and greatly disappoints me... as I am a strong strong supporter of one American, one vote... I PUSH my students as well as anyone else who will listen to get VOTE... it's not only our right it's our responsibility.... VOTE!!! VOTE!!! VOTE!!!
Please feel free to disagree with me... as that is our right too!
Have a wonderful day!
Strong is what happen when weak goes away!
I read this today and it really jumped out at me... simple but true!
Have a great day!
This morning I was feeling especially brave... so after warming up during my walk I decided to try "jogging" a bit... something I've believed was beyond me.... but I'm happy to report that I was successful. Now... I didn't "jog" for a great distance... but would walk for five minutes then jog for up to a minute... then try it again.... t was tough but I did it...
This serves as a reminder NOT to limit ourselves to what we think we can or can't do....instead we should TRY... Just TRY and see what happens!!!
Have a great afternoon!!
(Hope this doesn't show up twice... the first one didn't appear)!!
I woke up extra early and took a nice walk around the river and the campground!!! Beautiful scenery!!!! Beautiful morning!
Enjoy your day!!!

Meet your SEO: Bill Slawski alessiomadeyski.comSubmitted by abeen Aug 09 2012 in Community 5 Comments Discuss (4) |
Howdy readerz, today is august 9th. And you know what day is it? It's the International Day of the World's Indigenous People. This to say that it would be great if we all stop to be jerks with the others who are "different" from us. I mean, the color of the skin could be different, the language could be different, but we are all here, living in the same world, fighting for something, fighting to become better, fighting to live better.

Rand Fishkin @randfish Admin AMA WizardBill is the real deal. Have admired him since my first day in the SEO industry.
Stuart McHenry @smindsrtWhat this good interview doesn't mention is how helpful Bill is. I've asked him a few questions on his blog and he took the time to answer in detail.
Dan Petrovic @dejanseoYes, Bill will go through all comments and reply to most if not all people who ask a question or contribute with something substantial. Amazing care for his audience.
Bill Slawski @bill_slawskiThank you, Rand. Appreciate that tremendously, and I'm happy to see how you've grown and thrived in this industry myself.
Bill Slawski @bill_slawskiThanks, Stuart. Part of the enjoyment of having a blog is being able to meet people and interact with them, and help them when they ask for help, and learn from them as well.

Pens Vs Predators Grades
My Prediction
Pens 4, Predators 2.
Actual: Pens 5, Predators 1.
Record in predicting winner: 29-19.
Even Strength Offense: A-
They scored 5 goals and they really never played too much Pittsburgh Penguin Ice Hockey (PPIH). That usually involves getting the puck deep and wearing the opposition down. Last night, it was more of a quick-strike offense. Both of Geno's snipes were on awesome transitions, as was Kunitz'. A Nashville giveaway caused by a strong forecheck gave the Pens the Cooke goal. Only the Dupuis goal was a result of sustained zone time. It worked well last night, and I do like to see them have a stronger transition than just dumping it in. But counting on such a high percentage of shots going in probably isn't a recipe for long-term success.
Even Strength Defense: B
They allowed only the one garbage goal, but in doing so forced Fleury to make quite a few good saves. Nashville certainly had their chances, and they actually played better PPIH than the Pens did.
Power Play: I
Playing against the angelic Predators, the Pens had only 25 seconds of power play time.
Penalty Kill: A
They easily killed the lone full Nashville power play, allowing nary a shot on goal.
Goaltending: A
Flower was a little scrambly at times, but allowed only the Radulov rebound where he had no chance. This could easily have been a lot closer game had he not been on. But once again, he did what he needed to to keep them ahead all game long.
Overall: A-
It wasn't their best effort during the streak, as they were too dependent on the transition for goals. But they did what they needed to and beat a top-notch Nashville team. They got ahead early, and never gave the Predators a whiff that they would get back in the game.
And now, the rest of the story…
Sid: F
Remember, that's an F by Sid standards. But he was barely noticeable last night, attempting only one shot the entire game.
Geno: A
He got the Pens off and running and led his line to a totally dominant effort. It was one of those games where you almost expected them to score every time they hit the ice.
James Neal: A
He's becoming such the playmaker. Four more assists last night.
Kris Letang: A
What a beautiful, patient play he made on the Dupuis goal. Just wait and wait and wait until there's somebody there to deflect the shot.
Matt Cooke: A
And another goal, this time without Sid's help.
â€Duperstarâ€: A
Nice deflection on the Letang shot.
Minus Machine Update
|This Game
|Non Minus Machines
It will be a glorious day when both Minus Machines hit the plus mark. Oh, and props to the entire defense corps for playing down a man after Niskanen went down.
Thank you, Nick Spaling, for missing a wide open net from the side of the crease.
Loathsome Homerism
While Steigy just can't resist extolling the Pens, this remark was a tad over the top. He called this group, "the most powerful offensive group the Penguins have ever had.†Okay, Steigy. I know you were around in 1992-93, because I listened to you. So, um, how can you possibly say this team is more offensively talented than that one? Mario, Tocchet, Stevens, Francis, Jagr, Murphy.
Oh, and then there was his comment that Hal Gill must be marvelling at the Pens' firepower. Um, no, Hal Gill was out there trying to stop them. The better the Pens play, the worse Steigy is getting. He's almost unbearable right now.
Bibsy's Creative Language
When Malkin was called for tripping Legwand, he said, "he got the leg with the wand.â€
Free Candy
He almost sliced Craig Smith in half with a beautiful open ice hit.
Monk Moment
I'm still trying to figure out how Geno's first one got by Rinne.
I'm on Twitter.
A guide to the game grades can be found here.

Hi ... this is my first post....and I probably have it in the wrong spot.
However, I have just started to homebrew... right now I have 3 batches of beer on the go and batch of mead ( the beers are blanch de chambly style, golden ale and a Canadian draft ) ... I got so exited to start brewing that I haven't let them finish before I put another batch on.
I also went out and found someone selling 21! 23L carboys for $40 ( lucky I know ) he also threw in a " roto keg " is takes CO2 canisters, and it's big enough to fit on my back! ....I'm gonna make alot of freinds.
Well my main reason for posting here, is this batch of mead I put on.... well its doing whats its supposed to do... but.... I worried I used to much honey
I went out and found someone that keeps bees in their back yard up here in calgary. And they reluctantly let 20lbs of there honey go to for $100.... great quality stuff.
I took 10lbs of that stuff and gave is a good dark caramelizing.... not burnt just heavily toasted.... I then proceeded to cool it down, add some water to make a syrup ...( yummy ) then added the last 10lbs of honey to... as chef's call it " temper " the flavor. Put the syrup in a primary topped it up to 6.5 ( roughly 24l ) with water.
I got hold of some " rudsheimer" yeast from a brewing shop that is a 2 min walk from my house. ( lucky again I know ) It's doing what it is supposed to do... itssa gurlglin and bubbling away .... but I am concerned if i used to much honey.... I couldn't even get a decent sg reading it was so heavy ... I guess time will tell
If the end product is to sweet... I can always dilute it with some water yes?
I love this site.
Also I'm looking for a great basic Strong Ginger beer recipe.
Just curious, how this is turning out.
20lbs of honey is a bit much. The yeast is going to need lots of nutrient to handle the overwhelming sugar content. Have you been adding that in?
Also if you've been keeping an eye on the gravity, I'd be interested to see how that's been coming along.
