Comments Thread For: Maidana Shreds Alexander: He Was Scared, He'll Duck Me!
Junior welterweight Marcos Maidana is ready to face either WBO/WBC champion Timothy Bradley, or Devon Alexander, in his next fight. Like his rival Amir Khan, Maidana was not too impressed with Saturday's fight, where Bradley won a ten round technical decision over Alexander in Pontiac, Michigan. He called the fight "a fiasco." He wasn't sold by Alexander's eye injury that ended the fight in the tenth. Maidana felt Alexander was too scared to continue and doubts he would accept the challenge of a future fight.

So let me get this right-people are heaping praise on Maidana for calling out the loser of the fight between Devon and Timothy,and he still hasn't chased up a fight with Bradley after he pulled out?????!!!! That's Boxingscene logic for you!
They're getting the quotes from this account: http://twitter.com/#!/ChinoMaidana
I doubt that's really Marcos. This could be like that fake Bradley twitter account that went back and forth with Khan a few months back.

3.0 out of 5 stars It was bound to happen eventually!
I've just taken delivery of this and only played it through once, but I can't say it has grabbed me in the same way that the previous ones in this series have done. I don't propose to go through the whole thing and analyse every track - just to say it might grow on me, but at the moment I really don't think it's as good and it's a bit of a disappointment.

4.0 out of 5 stars Gold is Gold,

This review is from: Doctor Who - Series 7 (Original Television Soundtrack) (MP3 Download)
It is always an agonising wait for anything Murray Gold does in my opinion. Once that music has reached your heart and made scenes not just memorable but iconic, you are left hankering for the soundtrack to be released. In this case, for series 7, it has been the longest wait of all; over a year since the series began. Almost two if you count The Doctor, The Widow and The Wardrobe, which has no soundtrack of its own and does not appear on this CD, despite its inclusion on the 7th series DVD.
Briefly touching on key tracks, this album is a mixture of uplifting, poignant, heartbreaking and ghostly melodies, some of which pick up on old themes (This Is Gallifrey/A Secret He Will Take To His Grave). The Ponds' departure in The Angels Take Manhattan is one of the most powerful moments of the series and so far in Moffat's reign. Together Or Not At All is a punch in the gut, with Goodbye Pond leaving you no time to recover. Clara's theme is at once playful and moving; perfectly capturing her wide-eyed innocence, courage and curiosity.
Trenzalore is something darker and heavier, a real sense of requiem and age as we delve into the past and conscience of the Doctor towards the end of the album/series.
God of Akhaten and The Long Song from The Rings of Akhaten may not be to everyone's taste given their choral nature, rather hymn like, featuring a child's (wonderful) voice, but I believe Gold has created something stirring and unforgettable. It reminds me of Journey's End's Song of Freedom (series 4 soundtrack).
I also recommend Cold War; it's chilling, and I couldn't get around that being a pun!
As a fan of Murray's work, I cannot fault his compositions as they always make me feel I am experiencing more emotion, with more nuances, than I knew I had, and these tunes stay with me. Happily on this occasion, much of the music included appears to sound much like it did when it caught my attention as the show aired, as previously tracks have occasionally been re-recorded or re-mastered and sound quite different, (Abigail's Song to name just one, which I always feel is a bit like false advertising as I bought that album for that song!), but here is just what you would want. If you fell in love with the music when you heard it, here it is, unblemished.
The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is I am very disappointed that after having waited so long, the music from the Christmas episode, The Snowmen, has not been included at all. I hope it is made available at some point at the very least (though as mentioned earlier, the previous Christmas episode music never has), though I am not happy at having to pay for another album over and above. Frustratingly, this talented, talented man has me over a barrel, because I can't help but buy anything he produces.
Oh just buy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Arguably the best Doctor Who soundtrack to date - the quality and diversity of the music is unparalleled in British TV,
L. Hubbard (Cardiff) - See all my reviews
The soundtrack to Doctor Who Series 7 is here, and what a corker it is. Soundtrack label Silva Screen have once again released an exceptional album, and this ranks amounst the best, if not the best release to date of Murray Gold's material. There's 74 tracks on the album spread over nearly two and half hours so I won't go into every track. In fact, whilst I was listening to the album, I'm not sure it would be appropriate to think about it on a track by track basis. It's difficult to describe, but this album does take you on a journey (I hate that expression because it is horribly cliché) but it is true. All the themes and best music from the past few series are on the album, and there's the new material for Clara. There's music from all the episodes of Series 7 (apart from the Christmas special). Stylistically it is diverse, and ranges from quiet piano, to strings brass and choir. Almost every mood is encapsulated across the album.
There's some nice references to previous themes - "A Secret He Will Take To His Grave" (Track 33, CD2) contains a slow version of fan favourite "This is Gallifrey" from the soundtrack to Series 3. There's also references to the Cybermen theme, the Doctor's theme, the Ponds, Clara, the list goes on. The thing that I got from the album was how many themes there are - it's staggering, and the way Gold weaves them around across tracks is masterful.
The soundtrack is well mixed and sounds good to me - a previous reviewer commented that some tracks were too quiet. This is partly true - Goodbye Pond (Track 20, CD1) is one of my favourites on the album. It starts off with some quiet string writing, but in the second half once the brass kicks in the volume ramps up. This is an absolute corker and really is one of the highlights of the album. Trenzalore (Track 34 CD2) it did sound quiet to me, so turn the volume up a bit.
My only criticism of the album would be whilst there is a lot of material present, it doesn't always flow that well, and I think this is due to the sheer number of tracks and their variable running time. Fewer tracks in more of a suite form (similar to what they do for the Doctor Who Proms) would have been perfect, but this is only a small gripe. Some people may dislike the fact that there's no tracks from the Christmas special, but to counter that, sometimes they release the Christmas soundtracks independently of the others, and secondly, I don't think there would have been room to have added any more material unless they added a third CD. This might have made it too pricey to be viable.
The CDs come within a cardboard sleeve, which I am not a massive fan of, but that's just personal preference. On the upside, I think the album art is the best to date and on the inside there's a really good strip of the Doctor, Amy and the Daleks. There's also a great accompanying CD booklet that tells you what tracks are featured in each episode (and the album goes in chronological order for simplicity). There's a couple of pages written by Murray Gold about the soundtrack for those of you who are interested in these things. Again the artwork within this booklet is really nice.
Once again label Silva Screen have released a stunning product. Two CDs for close to the price of one is great value for money, and at a running time of close to two and half hours, they have filled the CDs to the brim. Whilst Murray Gold's music continues to divide people in the show, there is no running away from the fact that they are popular soundtracks. I think this release is stronger than last year's material. The inclusion of so many themes on the album shows what an amazing talent he is, and the scope of the vast musical tapestry he has created for the show. If you liked his previous releases, don't hesitate to get this soundtrack - sensational.

5.0 out of 5 stars "...sometimes life does not get any better and here's the proof...",
The EYE OF HORUS Editor (London, UK) - See all my reviews
Brash, discordant, stirring, heart-wrenching, tear-jerking and as quirky as Doris Day 'sickly-sweet' rom-com saturated with painful truths and comic observation sums ups Murray Gold's original television soundtrack for DOCTOR WHO SERIES 7, and it's regally glorious, regaining lost ground that he'd abandoned in his previous two series' soundtracks.
And if this was his series' 'swan-song' it will prove that he has served the DOCTOR WHO brand with energy, dignity and pure creativity. "He who outlives this day and comes safe home shall stand a-tiptoe when this day is named". (Terrance Dicks, 1980)
Undoubtedly, Silva Screen's two-disc release of SERIES 7 OST is an aural armoured battalion (supported in the ranks by Ben Foster and the BBC Orchestra of Wales) that delivers an uncompromising salvo that resulting in an onslaught that for the unwary listener could be overwhelming, however he delivers a lyrical narrative that mirrors the on-screen action with a deftness of precision that cossets and reassures throughout, and as the soul & humanity of the series has changed for this 13-episode series so has Gold's modus operandi.
With this release, have we seen Gold's zenith in terms of orchestral constructivism, and we shouldn't be too disappointed if he departs for the more financially lucrative and creatively broader requirement of Hollywood's demanding motion picture landscape.
Eclectic, MAKE PEACE (Disc 1, track 12) is truly outstanding as it remains founded in the DOCTOR WHO branding but embraces a channeling of George Harrison (THE BEATLES), and an appreciative & effectionate plagiarism of feature film composers, Aldred Newman and Dimitri Tiomkin to deliver a rousing punctuation for A TOWN CALLED MERCY.
Past glories of the Time Lord are majestically heralded (and re-enforced by 'THE Doctor's Theme') in UP THE SHARD (Disc 1, track 36) whilst it is innocuously juxtaposed next to the theme music of Daytime TV camp frippery is delivered in BAH BAH BIKER (Disc 1, track 35). Both of which are tempered by the sweeping expanse of a choral and orchestral tsunami as the GOD OF AKHATEN (Disc 2, track 5) is calmed and placated by the innocence of sacred youth and obedience.
However, there are a number of tracks that are so delicate that there are marginally inaudible - even when listened to through a technically superior BOSE sound system - which I wonder that they could have been 'rebalanced' accordingly. See/hear GOODBYE POND (Disc 1, track 29) and TRENZALORE (Disc 2, track 34).
And, strangely, there is no incidental music from DOCTOR WHO - THE SNOWMEN.
Overall, Murray Gold's DOCTOR WHO SERIES 7 OST is an undisputed triumph of substance over style that had regrettably plagued his previous two scores for the series. Returning in fine fettle, he ensured that any of SERIES 7's mediocrity or storytelling whimsy, suffered at the writer's keyboard or the director's clapperboard, is negated through a skilfully executed creative and morally just music score.
Like a Devon Cream Tea of jam-laden scones & clotted cream accompanied by a freshly brewed pot of Earl Grey, sometimes life does not get any better and, with this release, here's the proof.
And if you're greedy there's another two exclusive tracks ('Glasgow' and 'Whisper Men') on the iTunes download.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic,
A lot of good tracks, and very inspiring. But as with the other soundtrack CDs like Series 1& 2, 4, 5, had the doctor who theme.
But the new theme music was not on there which spoiled it a bit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully atmospheric music !,
Particularly moving is Clara's theme (The Impossible Girl), a haunting melody which superbly captures the beauty of someone who is now my favourite all time character (and I never thought anyone could replace Sarah-Jane in my affections !) The music from The Rings of Akhaten is truly enchanting. This is my favourite episode from Series 7, and listening back to the music reminds me why it moved me so much.

5.0 out of 5 stars More Murray Gold Magic,
Janet Adkins (Bedford) - See all my reviews
As we're in the 50th Anniversary year, I've splashed out and bought both the Silva Screen limited edition album and the standard album from Amazon. Quite simply, Murray Gold has done it again! His music is sublime and perfectly accentuates the television stories they appear in. The double album is well packed with pieces from all of Series 7 except for The Snowmen, which as others have said, is a little disappointing - maybe there will be a separate release as with A Christmas Carol. Personally, I was also disappointed that the new theme tune arrangement wasn't also included. Since receiving the soundtrack, I've also purchased the two bonus tracks available on iTunes.
3.0 out of 5 stars It was bound to happen eventually!,

4.0 out of 5 stars Consistently good but still needs a few more sparks of brilliance,
Chantal Lyons "C.S. Lyons" (England) - See all my reviews
No Doctor Who soundtrack has surpassed Series 5 yet, but that's a tall order since Series 5 was just so incredibly fantastic. In a way Series 6 and Series 7 have clung on to its coattails - and that's no bad thing. I'll never be able to get enough of Matt Smith's Doctor theme, however many new takes on it Murray Gold gives us.
I'll get the bad stuff out of the way first. I don't think the sheer quantity of tracks on the album is necessarily a good thing. The Series 1-2 and 3 soundtracks suffered a bit due to a lack of or the amalgamation of tracks, but I think Series 7 has taken it to the other extreme. We get a lot of incidental music, most notably in the 'Dinosaurs On A Spaceship' episode. Additionally the pacing of the album seems quite inconsistent - one or two episodes get just a single track on the album while others (including the aforementioned and fairly dreadful Dinosaurs episode) get a whole wad. However I can't complain too much, because the music from some of the other episodes is so strong. I barely noticed the music in the cowboy episode, but I love it on its own, and one track in particular, "Make Peace", has a cyberpunk edginess to it (I got more cyberpunk hints later on in the album too). I've love to hear more of this kind of inventiveness. Murray isn't afraid to be different, radical even, and mostly it works very well.
My favourite track, hands down, is 'Together Or Not At All'. It's the stand-out piece on this album, and probably helped by the fact that no other track comes close to equalling it. Clara's theme is lovely, but perhaps a bit too delicate to really pack a punch.
Whereas the Series 5 soundtrack was dazzling, I'd call Series 7 (and 6) 'sound' more than anything else. The album is consistently good, but apart from 'Together Or Not At All' lacks moments of sheer brilliance. I also felt that the album went out with not a bang but a whimper; the last track, 'Remember Me', is enjoyable, but doesn't soar and simply tapers away. To be honest I would've been very happy with a remix of 'I Am the Doctor'!
Still, I think we can expect great things from Murray Gold with the series 8 soundtrack which, unless you've been living under rock, you'll know will be the beginning of Peter Capaldi's tenure. What with Murray come up with next? I'm eagerly waiting to find out.
P.S. If I can't boast about this on an Amazon review, where can I? I was lucky enough to be sitting on the row in front of Murray Gold at 2013's Doctor Who Prom, and he was gracious enough to sign my programme for me - right on the vast expanse of his photograph's forehead. One awesome dude.
4.0 out of 5 stars Four Stars,
Great cd. Would recommend.

You don't have to be a world traveler to lead a full life
In a column last May, I pointed out the increase in our life expectancy and identified some parts of the world where they were doing even better. This week I had the pleasure of spending an hour with Adelaide Rosenberger, a very pleasant lady who was born in 1903. Now, at 103, she is very much alert and in command. Her memory seemed better than mine, and she spoke cheerfully about her history and the changes we have experienced.
One of the most interesting things about this lady is that she has spent her entire life within a very small area near her birthplace. In today's mobile society (at least to one who has moved as much as I have) that makes her unique. She was educated in the local Catholic school system and is a life member of the local parish.
She had one brother and three sisters, but played with neighbor children and worked helping her parents on what is locally known as a "truck farm" producing fruit and vegetables. Her parents operated a little market which grew into a small grocery business.
All of this was within a few blocks of this nursing home where she lives today.
Adelaide helped with all parts of their family industry. I know from experience that agriculture, at any level, is a never-ending task. Even if you produce only a single cash crop per year, say corn or wheat or rice, there is always a maintenance of machines and buildings, and if you add even a few animals, your job lasts, as expressed today, "24/7." Intensive cultivation of even one acre is very demanding. This little lady has done it all, beginning as a child.
For many years, before smoking cigars lost favor with the public, the Fendrich Cigar Co. was a big deal in our little city of Evansville. Employees rolled the famous cigars by hand, and Adelaide worked there until the plant closed around 1969. Machine rollers were installed probably about 1930. My own mother, who was born in 1881, told me about working there for a few years after losing her first husband, a Mr. Cutchin, and before she met my father.
Adelaide was already a young lady when I was born. Her memories of the First World War seem quite clear. At that time she was 15 - too young for the draft. (There were no women in the military as there is today.)
She continued producing fancy hand-rolled cigars for many years. The Wright brothers got their heavier-than-air craft off the ground for the first time the year she was born, but now that we have conquered the air and visited outer space, she has never been in a plane.
Do you remember Frank Sinatra's great hit song, "I did it my way?" Miss Rosenberger makes me think of that song. She continues to live her way, mostly alone, although she is very sociable. She dated boys as a young person, but never found anyone to marry. She made trips out of town by bus, usually with church groups.
What a great spirit dwells in that little body. She must not weigh more than 100 pounds, but when I left her she was trying to help another aged lady who was sleeping in her chair but in an uncomfortable position. I hope I'm here to interview her again in five years.

As a self-announced Supera Complete is a dietary supplement that claims to put together all the major diet ingredients into 1 super capsule that can help you burn away the weight, boost your energy, obtain ageless skin & be happier than you have ever been. In addition, Supera Complete states that the results you will obtain will be permanent.
Before I dig into several of the supplement's claims, it is important to remember that the "super diet" Supera Complete is not truly a diet at all. In fact, the producer claims that you can obtain weight loss with no changes in your exercise & diet. Therefore, from here on out keep in mind that Supera Complete is just a nutritional supplement; not really a diet.
Can Supera Complete truly help you lose pounds?
While it is certainly feasible that Supera Complete can help you melt away your pounds & experience the rest of the benefits it states. Remember these things prior to place your order.
Ingredients and effectiveness
I am really sorry to say, not one of the ingredients enclosed in Supera Complete have been clinically proven to help people lose weight. If Supera Complete effective at all—have frequently resulted only in pretty minor weight loss (e.g. one to two pounds) that is very well within the margin of error.
Lose weight without exercise?
Having claimed this, it is very unlikely that you will be able to lose a significant amount of pounds with Supera Complete, particularly if (as the product's web page claims) you utilize the supplement with no changes in your diet or exercise.
Keep in mind, despite what a lot of supplement producers will claim, exercise & diet have been proven to be the only solutions of losing a significant amount of weight & keeping it off.
Supera Complete pricing and refund policy
This product is only available through the producer in 3 buying options:
No matter which options you select, it'll come with a one-hundred-sixty-day money back guarantee. You will need to contact customer service to initiate the refund process.
Customer feedback
Although on September 2013 Supera Complete's website URL was registered, there're no customer reviews on online for the product that can be utilized to evaluate the overall level of customer satisfaction. In addition, supera complete's producer, super diet alternatives based out of Everett, MA, isn't outlined with the Better Business Bureau.
When you consider the fact that most of the spare complete's supplements haven't been shown to help people lose weight & that there're no customer reviews on the online for the item. You may want to consult with your doctor about more efficient methods of burning off weight & keeping it off.

The Tummy Tuck Belt with cream (as seen on TV) makes some very enticing promising about weight loss and someone who is struggling to lose a few pounds is bound to try it out. The most significant claim is that you do not need any additional exercise or diet, apart from the simple 10 minute routine demonstrated in their DVD. You are supposed to wear the belt over your belly and it works at gradually removing belly fat, making you slim.
It also comes with a 2 month supply of the special cream which you have to rub on your belly before you begin the ten minute session. Sadly, all of these claims are false and the product is highly ineffective. Like many other users who have posted negative reviews online, I used the Tummy Tuck Belt for a month and failed to shed a single pound; neither was my waist any slimmer.
The company claims that the belt is easy to wear, comfortable and soft, and gives you an instant slim look. This is not the case. It is very difficult to wear and take off the belt and it is so tight and uncomfortable that you can sometimes have trouble breathing properly. When you try doing the exercise routine with this belt on, it keeps folding and doubling up. The cream that accompanies the belt is equally ineffective and can cause rashes on extra sensitive skin.
Wearing this belt all day is very difficult and almost unbearable. I was brave enough to wear this belt for four weeks and finally gave up when I saw no results at all. There are many effective weight loss products available in the market but as far as the Tummy Tuck Belt is concerned, it is a complete waste of time, money and effort. I would advise anyone against buying this product.

When a product promises rapid weight loss, it is difficult to ignore it especially when you have been trying to shed some pounds without any luck thus far. When I heard about Plexus Slim and Plexus Slim Accelerator, I wanted to try it out but was a little skeptical as well. I went on their website and read what they were promising: fast weight loss with more energy and low cholesterol and low blood sugar levels. It sounded too good to be true, but after much deliberation I went ahead and bought a pack.
You are supposed to mix the powder with water and drink it half an hour before every meal. I started taking it and after 3 days I had an upset stomach and severe recurring headaches. The upset stomach quickly became diarrhea and I was on bed for the next few days. I discontinued taking Plexus Slim and Plexus Slim Accelerator immediately. During the week, I had lost a few pounds but the side effects simply weren't worth it.
Some other people I know who have used it have suffered similar side effects, including nervousness and being jittery all the time. I also found a report issued by the Canadian government citing high blood pressure, shortness of breath, chest pain, stroke and psychiatric disorders as possible side effects of using Plexus Slim and Plexus Slim Accelerator.
The product has been banned in Canada and anyone who finds this product in the market has been advised to report it to the government. If I had found this report beforehand, I would never have gone on and purchased this product for weight loss. Losing weight is important for many of us, but we need to find ways and products that do not end up doing more harm than good.

In order to fix this, you can do the following:

4. Then you will find a list of controls under Events Calendar module.
5. Click on the Edit pencil beside the Edit control (Edit Events Calendar)
6. And uncheck the "Allow Partial Rendering", and then click Update.
7. Click on the Edit pencil which is having an empty control. (
8. And uncheck the "Allow Partial Rendering", and then click Update.

Request Time Out when installing the module
10/29/2009 2:17:00 AM by
DotNetNuke 5.x has been very problematic for installing this module. The reason for this is a security check placed on sql files before they are executed, we hope this can be addressed soon by the DNN core team.
If you have an account connecting to SQL with low privileges, this may take some time and cause your installation to timeout. There are two things you can do:
Connect to SQL with a higher privilege account, such as db_owner, "sa" in most cases. You can change the account connecting to SQL server in web.config.
Extend the executionTimeout attribute in web.config.
if it does exist, you can add it in. The executionTimeout below will set to 10 minutes.
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="1048576" executionTimeout="800" />
If that does not solve the problem, there is an alternative way is to FTP to your site first, and then install from the website without uploading. Follow the steps below:
Just place the module PA (.zip package) in /Install/Module folder of your website
And then go to your site with '/install/install.aspx?mode=installresources' added on the end, and this will install all modules found under /Install/Module/ that are zipped up.
Example address to go to after .zip upload: http://www.domain.com/install/install.aspx?mode=installresources
After the install, the .zip will be removed from the /Install/Module folder

Retired steelworker Luther Ricks is either a neighborhood drug dealer whose ill-gotten gains were rightfully seized by the authorities.
Or the 64-year-old is an ailing man whose $400,000 life savings was taken by the police after they found marijuana he was using to manage the pain of arthritis and shingles.
Those are the conflicting accounts of Hicks painted by the police in Lima, Ohio, and his lawyers in a case that has become a cause celebre to critics of asset forfeiture laws.
It all started in the summer when the home of Ricks and his wife, Meredith, was robbed by thieves who stabbed his son, prompting Ricks to grab a gun and fatally shoot one of them.
When police arrived to investigate the incident, they found 321 grams of marijuana along with traces of crack cocaine, said Lt. Jim Baker, supervisor for investigative services at the Lima police department.
They returned with a search warrant and seized a safe filled with $403,503, wedding rings, titles to several cars and pieces of jewelry, later turning over the assets to the FBI.
Through the Department of Justice's asset forfeiture program, law enforcement authorities investigating criminal activity can remove the proceeds of crime and other assets.
Now, the Rickses have filed a claim to get their money back while the U.S.attorney's office in the Northern District of Ohio decides whether to pursue a claim against the couple for drug possession, among other charges.
In the meantime, the Rickses claim that they're having a hard time making ends meet while the government holds their money.
"I've been using Social Security to pay bills," Luther Ricks told ABCNEWS.com. "But it hasn't been easy. We don't work."
Ricks' wife, Meredith, disputed police accounts of what they found in the house.
"There was no crack cocaine in the house," she said. "That was pure shea butter. They're just a bunch of lies. They had me selling pills, which are prescribed for chronic back pain."
The police assert that the thieves targeted the house because Ricks was dealing marijuana and that authorities also found drug paraphernalia in the house.
"During the investigation of the shooting, we did a search warrant and came across the drugs and drug paraphernalia -- a scale, a pipe and small amount of crack cocaine," Baker said.
"In interviewing the suspect that survived [Diondrake L. Sims II, who pleaded guilty to burglary in February], in his statement, he said that they went there because [Ricks] has a lot of money and that he sold drugs."
Baker, who adds that the Rickses have no criminal history aside from a few misdemeanors including domestic violence and petty theft, justified the seizure under asset forfeiture laws.
"We looked at the totality of the situation -- the statement made by the suspect that lived, the marijuana in the house, the fact that the bills in the safe were newer bills. It's a combination of things."
The lawyers for the Rickses claim that the police are looking for reasons to justify taking the money.
"The government never brought charges against Mr. or Mrs. Ricks for drug possession at all," said Bryan Westhoff, a corporate lawyer from Dewey & LeBouef who is working the case pro bono.

Well that's one way to get your lazy ass to the gym! Put it in your house. And I'm not talking one room. Madonna just bought the house next door to hers and turned the entire thing into a gym.
She paid $12 million for the joint and plans to knock down walls, so she can easily go from home to her new gym center. She hasn't been granted the permits yet, so she currently has to trek 20 yards every morning to get there.
Can you imagine how amazing that place is? It's probably pilates machine heaven.

Heat of Battle is an immersive team play oriented gameplay experience. Using a capture and hold objective system similar to that of Day of Defeat and BattleField 1942, HoB puts you into gripping struggles to control areas in an effort to dominate the other team.

The HoB Dev Team is community driven and committed to making Heat of Battle the most realistic, customizable, and fun gaming experience to anyone who plays it.

Gear Question
So from the pictures of the baltoro and...
So from the pictures of the baltoro and the z65, it looks like the z65's straps are much thinner (and maybe nicer feeling). Can anyone confirm or deny this? Which one would you recommend, and why?
Yes. The Baltoro's straps are horrible IMO. Much to thick and much to hard for anything but mega loads. The Z series straps are oh so much nicer. In fact I am currently trying to figure out if I can get Z straps and mount them to my Baltoro 70 so it is a comfortable as my Z35R.

Awkward, embarrassing and dangerous
Watching a neighbor walk a couple of dogs by my house recently, it appeared more as though the group was attempting a complicated macramé pattern than going on a brisk walk.

I've had my share of leash mishaps, and...

Going the distance
I should have realized right away that something special was going on in a group dog-training session last spring.

This Week's Pod Cast
Welcome back to the African Roots Podcast! You can reach me at AfricanRootsPodast
Well today is the 1st of May and we are almost at the half wary mark for the year! Hope you are enjoying the spring weather.
I do with to thank you all who have expressed their concerns to me about events here in the Baltimore area. I appreciate the calls and well wishes, and of course we were all affected by the violence in the city. Thankfully peace has returned to the community and I hope that we will all realize that there is work to be done. There are young people who need to have more options so that they will not feel excluded, and will have hope in their lives. The issues are not unique to Baltimore, and we all should make a commitment to making the community, the country a better place. This is a new opportunity for us all and I hope we all commit to making a change.
Walking Tour of Parker Gray District of Alexandria
Photo courtesy of AlexandriaVa.gov
Well, as May has arrived, there are events occurring. Tomorrow in northern Virginia there will be a historic Walk Through Alexandria. Char McCargo Bah shared this information in social media yesterday:
On May 2, 2015, there will be a walking tour like no other tour you have had. The walking tour will provide genealogical information on selected sites in the Parker-Gray District. This tour will include the Alexandria Black History Museum (ABHM), and the Charles Houston Recreation Center's Hall of Fame Exhibit; on North Columbus Street we will make stops at Saint Joseph Catholic Church and the late John F. Parker's last known address; on North Alfred Street we will make stops at the late Jacqueline L. Henry Green's house and the late Elbert Norton's house; and lastly we will make stops on Pendleton Street at the late Henry T. White's house and at the late John W. "Baker" Jackson's house. The tour will start and end at the ABHM.
This lecture, with a $30.00 fee for adults and a $15 fee for children under 16, will be Saturday, May 2, from 10:30 AM to 1:00 PM at the Alexandria Black History Museum, 902 Wythe Street, Alexandria, VA. Please RSVP through the ABMH at 703-746-4356.
As many of you know I am a Civil War enthusiast. I have a strong interest in the US Colored Troops, but also in the stories of women who served in the Union forces–not as soldiers, but as nurses, matrons, laundresses and cooks. These are among the many untold stories of the Civil War. I am thrilled to be able to study the records, that record their names. There is so much more to tell. There are those who devote themselves to part of this as re-enactors. Well for those who are interested in that kind of experience, I learned about an opportunity to appear in a film project and USCT re-enactors are needed. This is actually a casting call for an upcoming film. Here is a link to the project.
Speaking of Civil War history, last night's episode of Bernice Bennett's show featured Dr. Juanita Patience Moss who spoke about her book on Black Soldiers who served in white regiments in the Civil War. Dr. Moss explained how she became interested in the story–through that of one of her own ancestors, who was in a Pennsylvania regiment that was not a USCT regiment. Her work has now extended into a second volume and she spoke about what she was able to uncover. I have heard her speak and found her to be a delightful person and an intriguing presenter. Her book is available on line at Amazon, or from the publisher here.
St. Louis Mother – Daughter Reunion

Have you been following this story? Almost 50 years ago a woman gave birth to a child and was told that the child was sick and died. It turns out however that was not the case. The child lived, and was somehow adopted by another family. Since that time, other women have been told that something similar happened to them. The story had a happy ending, but it has opened the door to something else that may have been going on? More than 20 women have voiced their concerns that they two were victims of a newborn death. I am happy for the woman Zella Jackson Price, but I hope also the now grown daughter will be given more than a new family—but perhaps a history–a genealogy that she never knew was attached to her is part of her history. I hope to conduct some family history research on the family and to share it with the family. As genealogists we can hopefully give her and her family a new piece of her history. The story is one that touched my heart, and many of us are following the story.

Louisiana Plantations Address the Slave Community
I was happy to learn this week about a new trend in some plantation estates that now address the lives of the enslaved people who maintained those estates, and upon whom the wealth of the estate was built. In the past the lives of the slaves were never mentioned on historic tours. But I am aware that Dorothy Spruill Redford author of Somerset Homecoming changed some of that when she directed Somerset Plantation and its history. Well this week, I learned that plantation estates in Louisiana are now addressing their slave history. Oak Alley Plantation and others are now including tours of the slave cabins on the formal tours of the estates, and this trend is now spreading to other places as well. Read more HERE.
It is time to wind it down for this week. Don't forget the other spring events such as the Grand Review Parade, Juneteenth, and more.
Thanks for listening, and have a great week of research. In the meantime, keep researching, keep documenting, and keep sharing what you find.
This Week's Pod Cast
Welcome back to the African Roots Podcast! You can reach me at AfricanRootsPodcast.
It is good to be back home in Maryland, after a wonderful time in Arkansas for the Arkansas History Civil War Sesquicentennail Commission. For me, being there was a true celebration of Freedom, and of the passage of the 13th Amendment to the Constitution. A special thanks to Archie Moore for taking time to show me some things I had not seen before, and also to introduce me to some amazing people also. Thanks to Mr. Moore, I met some of the movers and shakers in the historic community of historians, preservationists and researchers. I was so excited to also tour the Mosaic Templars Museum and to see the wonderful Civil War exhibit. Many of you know that I explore the histories of various benevolent societies and being at the Mosaic Templars Museum was a treat!
Saturday was a real experience. I spoke at the Old State House Museum, where one of my favorite historical images was captured. I am referring to the Harper's Weekly image, "Mustered Out." Well that was where I spoke last Saturday! Being inside of that historic building was a real treat!
Harper's Weekly, May 19, 1866
What an honor to be there. I had a chance to see and visit a historic black community of College Station, just outside of Little Rock. I ended my trip with a Sunday service at Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church, on State Street in Little Rock.
So thank you to everyone for making this a special trip!
As May approaches quickly, I hope some of you are preparing for the Grand Review and Parade! All groups of reenactors of the US Colored Troops are invited to join the six to ten thousand participants expected. There will be a parade, a forum at the US Capitol, a candlelight vigil at the Civil War Memorial, a prayer breakfast, and the Officer's Ball. What a wonderful way to bring the celebration of Freedom to light. I hope that you visit the Memorail and Musuem and look for your ancestor's name inscribed on the wall.
Last night's guest on Bernice Bennett's show featured Dr. D. Ryan Gray, who spoke last night about historic Holt Cemetery in New Orleans Louisiana. This discussion covered the origins of this burial ground, and damage that occurred after Hurricane Katrina, and also the efforts to preserve it today. This is particularly unique as it is one of the few below ground burial grounds in New Orleans. The show as you know her show airs every Thursday evening at 9pm EST on Blog Talk Radio.
Speaking of Bernice Bennett, don't forget to tune in to hear her webinar today on the Civil War Widow's Pensions! This will be on Family Tree Webinars and is part of the Freedom Series. If you are unaware of the content of the amazing Civil War pensions, then this webinar will be most enlightening! The webinar will take place today at 2:00 pm eastern time. If you miss it, you will have 5 days to catch it for free!
Speaking of Civil War—this is the time to find out if your ancestors served in the Civil war. Fold3 is opening their Civil War collection to the public for free until the end of April. That's right April 30th you have time to check those service records to see if you have ancestors who were US Colored Troops, or if they filed for pensions and so much more! What a great treat as we celebrate the 150th Anniversary of the end of the Civil War, and the beginning of Freedom!
Don't forget to register for the Juneteenth celebration of Freedom hosted by the Prince George's County chapter of AAHGS. Their event which is free will take place.
And don't forget to register from MAAGI–there is till plenty of time for that as well. Speakers from all over the country, so take a look at the tracks and submit your registration for a 3 day experience.
Those in Arkansas and Oklahoma will want to attend the preservation conference with PAAC, the Preservation of African American cemeteries. This year they will be in Quapaw Oklahoma, and will talk about the preservation efforts there. This group is really expanding and I think it is wonderful!
Are you excited to see the line up for the AAHGS conference? We are all anxiously awaiting the official presentation of the speakers and hope that everyone will be excited to see the program. The conference this year will be in Richmond Virginia this year and I understand that rooms for the hotel are quickly filling up, so make those reservations early as well.
This week I got a lot of research done as I was at the National Archives. If you have not been there recently, the research area has truly changed. Some areas are much smaller. Digitization has really affected the research experience. I still enjoy it as a place to conduct research, but it is interesting to see how digitization has affected travel. Have you had a similar experience and been able to alter your travel plans to conduct research. Have your methods changed over the years?
Time to wind things down this week, and while I get some rest and prepare for upcoming presentations. Thank you for taking time out to tune in to this week's podcast! You are greatly appreciated. In the meantime, please remember to keep researching, keep documenting, and please keep sharing what you find.

Is it okay to feed my 4 month old pizza and coke?
Recently, I fed my 4 month old daughter a small piece of cheese pizza and she loved it. She also drank a little bit of my husbands coke and she wouldn't stop crying until we gave her more, so we put some in her bottle. I know it is a bit early for this and not recommended, but could it really hurt in the long run?

I'm guessing she hasn't had any bad reactions. But I wouldn't start her on the road to the sweet stuff. Babies naturally love sweet so you'll be opening a can of worms with the soda. I'd stick to natural foods til they find out from their friends what candy is..Which is a few years away hopefully.posted 01/19/2011 by micah mom25
I can't believe this, i realy hope that this is a joke because there is no way that a small baby can digest something like that. I am a nurse in a Birthing Center so i know a lot about babies. Please talk to your doctor for advise on what to feed your baby if this is real. Please don't give your baby any more pizza and soda. thanksposted 01/06/2011 by Sarah from Vermont
Umm, if you want your child to have tooth decay and heart palpitations and become obese, then sure -- keep giving her Coke.posted 01/05/2011 by ThisMommyChoosesLife
the only reason you're not supposed to give babies solid food that early is because they can't chew it well and it can be difficult to digest. obviously the baby in question is fine; no choking and no upset stomach - so no, even though i wouldnt necessarily give pizza and coke to my son that early, I don't think there's anything wrong with it in this caseposted 12/26/2010 by kdd2989

If she is asking, she knows it is not right. Coke in her bottle? Let me guess, you throw her in bed with a blanket over her head at night too? I think you need to take some parenting classes. Ok, wait. I'll calm myself down. In now way, shape or form is this ok. 1st off. A child under 6 months needs no other liquid besides breastmilk, which I am sure you aren't using, or formula. Formula has water in it. A 4 month old isn't old enough to know what she wants. Sorry. Just not happening. She might think she does but come on you are the parent and she is pushing you over at the age of 4 months. Next time you visit the peds, if you even go there why don't you ask if this is ok.posted 12/15/2010 by jenlisabuck
I gave my 3 1/2 month old some mashed potatoes, pickle juice, suck on a pickle etc. We've let her try a lot of different foods and OMG she is alive and well! C'mon guys, she was just asking if it was going to hurt her in the long run and everyone acts like it's child abuse. Seriously, you're daughter will be just fine and like all the decent, kind and understanding ppl have said to you, just don't make it an all the time thing. You love your baby and kno your baby.

Sharples, M., Scanlon, E., Ainsworth, S., Anastopoulou, S., Collins, T., Crook, C., Jones, A., Kerawalla, L., Littleton, K., Mulholland, P., & O'Malley, C. (2014). Personal inquiry: Orchestrating science investigations within and beyond the classroom. Journal of the Learning Sciences. Doi: 10.1080/10508406.2014.944642
Mobile technology can be used to scaffold inquiry-based learning, enabling learners to work across settings and times, singly or in collaborative groups. It can expand learners' opportunities to understand the nature of inquiry whilst they engage with the scientific content of a specific inquiry. This Sharples et al. paper reports on the use of the mobile computer-based inquiry toolkit nQuire. Teachers found the tool useful in helping students to make sense of data from varied settings.
DiGironimo, N. (2011). What is technology? Investigating student conceptions about the nature of technology. International Journal of Science Education, 33(10), 1337–1352.
A good understanding of the nature of technology arguably facilitates learners' participation in a technology-rich, information-driven society. To support students' engagement and assess their understanding, educators need a functional definition of technology. This paper offers a definition with a related framework for examining students' understanding.
Stodden, V. (2010). Open science: Policy implications for the evolving phenomenon of user-led scientific innovation. Journal of Science Communication, 9(1), 1–8.
The internet allows sharing of digital data, code, and research articles so that not only scientific results but also the underlying supports and the paths of reasoning are publicly available. It is an opportunity for the public to learn about and participate in "computational and data-driven" citizen science. Informal science educators and communities can facilitate citizen engagement in this work by creating learning experiences that give citizens the skills needed to gain entry into the data of their interest, by working with professional societies to find and create outlets for this study, and by fostering collaboration between citizens and scientists.
Watermeyer, R. (2010). Social network science: pedagogy, dialogue, deliberation. Journal of Science Communication, 9(1), 1–9.
ISE professionals can use this study as a guide to help them in understanding the uses of social networking sites (SNS). The author maintains that SNS provide a space that allows the public to become better acquainted with the work of scientists, stimulating transparency and accountability, and that encourages the public to become active contributors to scientific research and debate.
DeGennaro, D., & Brown, T. L. (2009). Youth voices: Connections between history, enacted culture and identity in a digital divide initiative. Cultural Studies of Science Education, 4(1), 13–39.
The paper describes how middle school students appropriated and transformed a particular learning experience in an afterschool literacy program in Philadelphia. The learning experience was designed to ensure that urban African-American, middle school girls had access to technology and learned how to use it to create a web page that showcased future career aspirations. The program's director enlisted the help of male, Caucasian high school students from the suburbs of Philadelphia to facilitate the technology learning experience for the middle school youth (both girls and boys were in the program). The researchers identified a wide range of ways that cultural assumptions were made and projected upon the urban middle school students, and how these middle school students resisted and transformed the program into one where they could explore and communicate their identities within their communities. This paper can draw ISE educators' attention to the existing resources and strengths that teens from nondominant communities bring to learning experiences.
Miller, J. D. (2010) Adult science learning in the internet era. Curator: The Museum Journal, 53(2), 191–208.
Focusing on where people find information about issues relevant to civic society, the author of this paper concludes that, in contrast to the Internet and related information technologies, informal science institutions are less impactful on civic science literacy. The implications of his findings are that in the Internet era an informal science institution's in-house presentation of intriguing phenomena may not be sufficient to supporting an engaged scientifically literate citizenry.
Jaakkola, T., Nurmi, S., & Veermans, K. (2011). A comparison of students' conceptual understanding of electric circuits in simulation only and simulation-laboratory contexts. Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 48(1), 71–93.
This article makes a case for providing multiple types of hands-on resources to support learner inquiry. More specifically, a computer simulation of an electric circuit complemented work with a real circuit to support learners' conceptual development. When learners had the opportunity to use both simulated and real circuits, less structured guidance seemed to benefit the inquiry process.
Brewer, P. R., & Ley, B. L. (2013). Whose science do you believe? Explaining trust in sources of scientific information about the environment. Science Communication, 35(1), 115–137. doi:10.1177/1075547012441691
Brewer and Ley surveyed 851 participants in a U.S. city and revealed relationships among demographic characteristics, religious beliefs, political views, and trust in multiple forms of science communication sources.
Eijck, M. V., & Claxton, N. X. (2009). Rethinking the notion of technology in education: Techno-epistemology as a feature inherent to human praxis. Science Education, 93, 218–232.
The authors of this paper use Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) as a conceptual framework for understanding how technology is tied to culturally specific human practices, and what this means in an educational context. ISE professionals can use this paper to better understand the relationship between technology and science education and how technology as a cultural tool can represent inherent (privileged) epistemologies. The researchers in this study examined Reef Net technology of the WSÁNEĆ (Saanich) First Nation to demonstrate how cultural ways of knowing are embedded in the technology.
Lehrer, R., & Schauble, L. (2003). Origins and evolution of model-based reasoning in mathematics and science. In R. A. Lesh & H. M. Doerr (Eds.), Beyond constructivism: Models and modeling perspectives on mathematics problem solving, learning, and teaching (pp. 59–70). Mahwah, NJ: Erlbaum.
The adoption of the Next Generation Science Standards means that many educators who adhere to model-based reasoning styles of science will have to adapt their programs and curricula. In addition, all practitioners will have to teach modeling, and model-based reasoning is a useful way to do so. This brief offers perspectives drawn from Lehrer and Schauble, two early theorists in model-based reasoning.

Sounds like a problem with the Horizonal Sync values. Be carefull with these values, as wrong values, can damage the monitor. I would go check the Sun site and check those values again..
Oh!! and also check to see what the actual screen resolutions that it will support. I sort of skipped over the fact that it's a Widescreen Monitor, so the aspect ratios will be different to a normal monitor. Which I guess means it will use none standard resolutions... (Similar to the Sony Vaio which did that too. Instead of 1024x768, it was 1024x576 or something to that effect. To give the Widescreen effect...)
